Pretty pictured parasols
After featuring a Real New Orleans Wedding, I’ve had wedding parasols on the brain.

As you’ve probably noticed, many brides (without Second Line’s) have incorporporated parasols into their big day- whether they are to provide shade from the sun or are used as bouquet alternatives. One thing’s for sure, parasols can certainly add some pizazz to your wedding photos.
Personalized parasols can be found on etsy for around $50 from shops like I Do Originals and Michelle’s This and That
I was excited to find that you can also rent parasols online from Bella Umbrella! Rental reservations cost $10-$30, on average, and come in a wide range of styles and fabrics to choose from (sampled below).
I love the instant classy style umbrellas can add to your wedding day and, unlike bouquets, these beauties have a pretty good shelf life.
**ADDITION:
Thanks to one of my favorite photographers, Sarah Miller of Miller + Miller, I realized how painted parasols make a sweet, clever addition to a couple’s engagement photos. It’s the perfect prop!
