It’s no secret that we love a Vegas wedding here at Rock n Roll Bride. We’ve been lucky enough to shoot in Las Vegas multiple times over the last few years, so without blowing our own trumpet too much, it’s fair to say we’re pretty clued up on how to do a Vegas wedding well.

Not everything around your wedding has to be “Pinterest-worthy”. In fact, we’re here to champion something we’re calling the anti-aesthetic wedding movement. Reject the curated feeds, the staged set ups, and the endless pressure to make your wedding look like somebody else’s.

Getting engaged between Christmas and New Year hits in its own ridiculous, sparkly way. Fairy lights, leftover stuffing and suddenly you’re staring at a ring thinking "OMG this is it!". Welcome to the newly engaged bubble. It’s sweet. It’s surreal. It’s the only time you get to sit in the glow before the wedding machine tries to drag you in by the ankles.

A wedding without alcohol is like fish without chips. Or is it? Many couples are rethinking the culture of boozy weddings, and for good reason. More and more wedding guests are swapping their wines for cokes, whether they’re tee-totalers, Dry January participators who never went back, or simply casual drinkers who would rather avoid the headache the next day.

Diamonds tend to arrive in our lives loaded with meaning. Engagements, anniversaries, milestones, moments you want to mark properly. But once you start shopping, the conversation often turns into numbers, grades, and price brackets. What gets lost is how a diamond actually looks and feels when you wear it.

There is a part of wedding planning that rarely makes it onto moodboards. It is not about budgets or dresses or venues. It is about waiting for grown adults to reply to a simple question and realising how strange and draining that experience can be.

Your Ring, Your Rules: The Lab-Grown Diamond Takeover

Guest Contributor

December 18, 2025

Luxury is a bit of a buzzword in bridal. Brands love to slap it on their website and Instagram bio and think that means they can charge above the odds. But real luxury doesn’t shout about why it’s the best. It’s in the experience and the undefinable reason why something feels extra special.

Guest Contributor

December 16, 2025

We love a Spotify playlist, but really, nothing beats live music at a wedding. A great live musician will change how a room feels rather than just filling the silence. The key to choosing the best performers for your day is is knowing why you want them there and where they’ll actually add something. Before you start booking, there are a few essentials worth thinking about:

Getting engaged is the most exciting time. What’s less exciting is when you actually start planning the wedding and realise you might need to remortgage your house to pay for the damn thing. It’s no secret that weddings are expensive. No matter the size or style, they’re a luxury - and luxuries always come with a hefty price tag. It’s not that there are vendors lurking in the shadows waiting to rip you off. It’s just that this shit is expensive. It just is.

The Alternative Bride’s Guide to Finding a Signature Scent

Guest Contributor

November 27, 2025

Alternative brides customise everything. Dresses. Accessories. Playlists. Ceremonies that make your nan raise an eyebrow. But one detail often gets forgotten, even though it hits harder than any piece of jewellery: scent. The right women's perfume doesn’t just smell good.

Guest Contributor

November 26, 2025

Maximalism is finally having its moment in weddings, and nowhere is this more apparent than with flowers. Couples aren’t interested in shrinking themselves into tradition anymore. They want colour, attitude, drama and a bit of glorious chaos. Florals are the fastest way to take a blank space and turn it into something loud, expressive and unmistakably you. And with online flowers services making big ideas easier than ever to pull off, maximalist wedding florals have officially gone from “maybe one day” to “add to basket”.

It is a truth universally acknowledged that an engaged woman in possession of a good wedding plan must be a bridezilla! Well, here at Rock n Roll Bride magazine, we don’t believe in such a thing. We don’t think you’re the villain at all. We think it’s all those bossy, nosy, old-fashioned relatives who keep sticking their oar in and trying to tell you what to do! So, let me don my bonnet and ready my carriage… because I’m about to set off with you… into the land of obstinate, headstrong girls…

You know that one table in your seating chart that’s kind of a wildcard? Maybe it’s your old boss with a heart of gold and opinions of fire… right next to your second cousin who, for better or for worse, always spices up family gatherings.  Well. When you’re wedding planning, your mixed emotions are all sitting at that hodgepodge table in your mind. And some of them? You definitely don’t remember giving a plus one (rude!) But there they all are, in their creative cocktail finest.
