Are you a soon-to-be bride that needs more inspirational help beyond Pinterest? From renowned magazines to hanging florals and luxury cakes, here are my top 10 personal favourite Instagram accounts to follow for all you inspirational needs.


@brides

With over a million followers, BRIDES Magazine is a renowned magazine that showcases photos, articles and blogs of bridalwear, decor, cakes, and real weddings just to name a few. Most importantly, I love their quotes!


@theknot

Not only a magazine, but The Knot is also a planning service providing tools for newly engaged couples looking for assistance as they plan their special day. I especially love that they focus on real weddings from all walks of life.


@stylemepretty

Similar to The Knot, Style Me Pretty is also a planning service providing resources such as real wedding content and vendor recommendations. I enjoy following them because I like the focus that they place on the modern day bride.


@wedding_style

The Grace Ormonde Wedding Style Magazine is known for placing its emphasis on true luxury when it comes to weddings of course, but also lifestyle in general. Serving a similar purpose to that of The Knot and Style Me Pretty, you can also find wedding resources here as well.


@dianekhouryweddingsandevents

Diane Khoury is the queen of designing luxury weddings and events! Based in Australia, Diane is known for over-the-top, grand and spectacular event design. Give her a follow and you’ll immediately know what I’m talking about. Diane, if you’re reading this, can you design my wedding?


@mindyweiss

Based out in Los Angeles, Mindy Weiss is an event planner who also plans some of the greatest parties for celebrities including the Kardashians. As an event planner myself, I idolize Mindy for her unique ideas, extravagant parties and hard work.


@jeffleatham

Another individual who works very closely with the Kardashians, Jeff Leatham is the Artistic Director of the Four Seasons Hotel George V in Paris and Los Angeles at Beverly Hills and someone who is famously recognized for his floral design. By following his work on Instagram, you will truly be left in awe and incredibly inspired for your big day.


@whitelilacinc

White Lilac Inc. is another luxury event and floral designer based in Orange County, California. The installations and design the company brings forward at weddings is insanely gorgeous. From the flowers, to the draping and the colours, you will definitely be full of inspiration.


@steven_khalil

Based in Australia, but also recognized worldwide, Steven Khalil is a leading designer of wedding gowns as well as red carpet looks. From mermaid to ballroom gowns all the way to designing looks for Jennifer Lopez, you’ll want to purchase one of his gowns for your wedding. I think I need to move to Australia as I’m noticing I follow several wedding professionals from down under!


@finecakesbyzehraofficial

Last but certainly not least, and based out of the greatest city in the world, Zehra from Fine Cakes by Zehra produces the most magnificent cakes in Toronto. Specializing in luxury custom cakes, I contact Zehra for all of my cake needs not only because they look so good, but because they taste so incredibly delicious.
