Sweden in the summer is one of the most magical places on earth. The sun basically never sets at the mid of summer. If you have not experienced it then it is impossible to understand the beauty of the light. The photos above are photographed by the very talented Jonas Peterson and I think they epitomizes Swedish style and the feel of Sweden. I adore the table setting, the wedding survival kit and all the white and green. I found the photos via Jonas Peterson's blog.
Hope you had a wonderful weekend and a happy monday!
so beautiful!

Thanks so much for this, Joanna. It's funny, I've been in advertising as a writer for ten years and I've never even come remotely close to the praise I now get as a photographer. It just blows my mind. Thank you, thank you. x

One of our most beloved wedding traditions is the white wedding dress. Many historians claim that the vivacious French queen, Anne de Bretagne, was the first to start this most cherished of wedding traditions by wearing a white wedding dress in 1499; however, there remains some speculation as to the veracity of this claim. Another 160 years would pass until accounts of Mary, Queen of Scots' marriage to the French Dauphin in 1558 also claimed she wore white. In most cases, the white wedding dress is commonly attributed to Queen Victoria of England, however, who in 1840 married Albert of Saxe-Coburg, clad entirely in a white gown that was adorned with some of her own prized white lace. But, as far as wedding traditions are established, it still took awhile for brides to catch on to this new idea; it was, after all, very hard to clean a white dress and keep it that way in those times. Another sixty or so years would pass before brides had the resources to wear white wedding gowns routinely and keep them spotless.
