Next up in our Best of 2018 series is Bridal Party Fashion! We love being Youngstown wedding photographers because we love meeting all of the people we come into contact with while photographing weddings! Youngstown bridal parties are the best bridal parties- it’s science. Because our couples are the best couples ever it’s no surprise to us that their bridal parties are super fun, classy, there for the bride & groom no matter what, and always down to have a great time during bridal party photos! We hope it’ll help all of you Youngstown brides out there currently planning 2019 or 2020 Youngstown weddings! You’ll definitely see lots of different styles here and hopefully get an idea for your own wedding theme/bridal party fashion! So without further adieu, we present our favorite bridal party photos!
We adore classic & neutral color palettes on wedding days & we have seen a lot of those recently. Taupe is such a great neutral & we love the mismatched styles with the matched color on bridesmaids.
Amanda’s bridesmaids looked fabulous! Her theme was neutral & classy, as well, and she nailed it! She was going for timeless & we love it!
Alyvia’s ladies were so much fun & looked gorgeous in taupe!
Let us just say, you CANNOT go wrong with a classic black tux & bow tie! 
Yes, Ladies! Killin’ it.
We love these classic looks on bridesmaids & groomsmen! 
This slate gray and black was timelessness goals for a bridal party just strolling through downtown Youngstown.
Valerie & Nick met & both graduated from The Ohio State University so scarlet & gray was their choice for bridal party colors! And their flowers from The Willows by Wehr in Columbiana included buckeyes, which was a really cool way to match the OSU theme! 
These little ladies & their sequins and flower crowns. . . adorable! 
When your dog is part of your bridal party, too! 
These dresses were unique. The sequins and feminine pink were really gorgeous.
These #realrondinellimen were looking sharp! We highly recommend Rondinelli Tuxedo Company for any and all of your tux needs, Youngstown grooms! 
Blush/dusty pink and peonies in the Spring? Yes! 
Those lace dresses were so sweet! And, yes, those are real butterflies. So fun! 
Navy always works well with blush! 
This pink and light tan color palette was a Summer dream at The Vineyards at Pine Lake.
Again, we’re loving the classic look. You cannot go wrong.
This group was so much fun & those ruffles were really beautiful.
P.S. More flowers from The Willows by Wehr (we can’t shout our favorite florist from the rooftops enough!)
And some more Rondinelli Tuxes!
This beautiful bridal party looked extra fancy in front of a horse & carriage.
This was definitely a bright splash of Summer color.
This, too! Citrus dreams come true. (Also Rondinelli tuxes).
Navy is a great way to go for any season. And your flowers will be complimentary in almost any colors alongside navy.
This groomsquad was a hoot and the groomsgal looked great in gray.
Navy & gray is a new classic.
Navy & lace. These ladies can definitely wear these again.
Jennifer’s favorite color is blue & all of her friends associate that color with her immediately so they knew without even asking that her wedding color would be blue!
Natalyn loves mint & she didn’t even want to consider any other colors for her wedding day. When you love something, you love it, right?! It was so sweet for a mid-Summer wedding by the lake!
Mint and tan work well, too.
Riley the golden stealing the show. haha. And. . . you guessed it. . . flowers by The Willows by Wehr! 
Mint alongside pops of deep red for a December wedding. Lovely.
And teal! You know we love teal.
You can do a lot of different things with purple, too, depending on the season. It can be a great Fall, Spring, or Summer color! Here is a Fall purple wedding.
And here’s a Spring purple wedding.
Another fun Fall wedding featuring purple tones. And purple on Mount Union’s campus (where the bride & groom met!) is always a great idea! 
The guys don’t have to be matchy matchy to look great. We loved these navy suits & different ties.
This hue of purple was amazing with the flowers by Tara Fodor Designs.
Summer fun in pastel purple & gray.
And Autumn beauty in pretty silhouettes. 
Purple was everywhere for this rustic chic wedding day. 
And we have to say that maroon and burgundy have been very popular over the last couple of years.
We loved these sparkly numbers. So good! And the flowers from Blooming Crazy were perfect.
This color combo is winning for a Winter wedding! (Not that we thought it’d be snowing on November 10, but it was and it was beautiful).
More Willows by Wehr bouquets! 
When the groom is a firefighter! 
This group was a riot & looked great in various shades of burgundy & purple.
We loved this look. (Oh, and more bouquets by The Willows by Wehr). We love Jenny Wehr and all of her floral creations! 
And isn’t it fun how you can do anything with your flowers if you go with black bridesmaids’ dresses? 
What a bunch of beautiful people we’ve gotten to meet! And no matter what color/style they’re wearing, they’ll be the ones right by your side on your wedding day cheering you on & celebrating your love story!
If you’re looking for a Youngstown wedding photographer, you found us! We’re Josh & Danielle Menning, a husband and wife wedding photography team for joyful couples who believe in the beauty of marriage. We’re based in the Youngstown, Ohio area and we’re always up for traveling to a tropical location, the mountains, the deep south, Europe, or Australia for your destination wedding! Hey, we dream big around here and we want this photography adventure to take us anywhere and everywhere. But even if it doesn’t, we’re still really happy that this is our career and that we call Northeast Ohio home because Youngstown brides are truly the best brides! We love getting to know our couples & being there alongside of them to tell the story of the first day of their marriage authentically & candidly. When we aren’t photographing weddings, you can find us hanging out and being goofy with our two toddlers (a girl and a boy) and listening to our two pugs snoring. Stay tuned for more posts soon in this Best of 2018 series!
