Rock ‘n Roll Wedding Theme
August 21st, 2009 by SilviaI tend to post a lot of pretty traditional weddings on here, but there are plenty of brides out there looking for something a bit more rock ‘n roll. Being a huge fan of rock, I thought it only appropriate to do a post featuring some of the weddings I’ve found on my new favorite site: Rock n’ Roll Bride. Here’s a post for the brides looking to do something a little different or a bit on the edgier side.
A Rock & Roll couple can come in many forms. Although, it’s definitely a plus when the bride and/ or groom get up onstage to entertain the crowd. If you’re a couple who’s into music, but can’t carry a tune to save your life, a personalized CD can be the perfect way to share your love of music with your guests. It’s also a great wedding favor and makes for awesome ring shots!
I’m loving this piano staircase– pianos can rock too– and this picture shows that you can incorporate your love of music into all aspects of your special day, down to the staircase. For a touch of drama, that bride’s eyes are out of this world!
Colored Gowns are all the rage in rock and roll weddings. You can do so many different things with it, like getting a dress that’s all one color other than white, or you can do a bit of peekaboo colored tulle under your skirt.
Creative hairpieces or hair art can also help you show off your edgier or more creative side. Birdcage veils are chic and also allow you to pair them with anything from a funky hat to a dramatic hairpiece. Grooms (or brides) can also rock the mohawk (or fauxhawk!) with colored hair.
Some brides choose to express their creativity by their footwear. Slip on some rockin’ combat boots, Vans or Converses, or simply a leopard print liner can be perfect for the big day.
You can also show off your love of skateboards or motorcycles and wheel away from the ceremony in style!
The bridesmaids can be the ultimate accessory– whether you go 50s style or dramatic black and red, it’s all rock.
Finally, flaunt those tattoos– even if grandma disapproves– there’s no reason why you can’t wear a traditional wedding dress and show off your body art.

A bride playing guitar. There is nothing sexier.

I love the billowing wine colored dress. It looks gorgeous!
People can definitely choose to show their creativity on their wedding day. Me…I chose traditional and really didn’t think about being or getting creative. I think people are amazing in how they choose to express themselves!
