A Romantic Ride

February 18th, 2009 @ 3:59 pm by Mrs. Duckling

Lately I have been seeing the sweetest wedding pictures and details using a bike. The effect is so whimsical, romantic and fun. The couple always looks like they are having so much fun and it brings you back to your childhood days. Don’t you just wish you could be carefree and ride your bike around for the day, stopping wherever you please?

The cute bike theme makes me think of other similarly-whimsical ideas that would be fun to incorporate into a wedding!

We’re considering something like this, since our theme is based on our initials… TandM = tandem. I love your inspiration pics!

Aaagh, I bike commute every day and I cringe at the thought of getting chain grease or other bike dirt on a wedding dress. That stuff is impossible to get out! And I’ve had more than one pair of jeans munched by my gears… I can’t imagine what they could do to a delicate fabric.

Nevertheless, I LOOOOOVE wedding bike photos!

The answer is, you don’t. These are all super staged, and that overshadows the cuteness for me:-(

That would take some serious talent. Definitely implossible for bigger dresses

I was just wondering the same thing!!! How on earth did these girls not get their dresses caught in the gears??? I would be terrified!!

I keep thinking the same thing. I wouldn’t want my precious Jim Hjelm getting caught in the chain or covered in grease! But I would love Mr PK and I to ride our (matching) beach cruisers into the reception!

Awww… this post was totally made for us! We are staying away from the bike theme for our wedding, but it is incorporated into our shower.

With my dress, there is no way I could ride a bike. Tight and long… not a good combo.

Very cute. We live so close to our venue, we joke that we could walk home trailing tin cans. ;)

I have been wanting to incorporate a bike into my wedding ever since I saw Kermit and Miss Piggy get married and ride off into the sunset on a bike. So effing cute!

ok I did this for my beach wedding bc our hotel was 1 block away and I thought it would make for a cool getaway. Tandem beach cruiser I rented for $20. It was afordable, perfectly cute and fun, but yes not easily done even in my simple sheath gown. Side saddle and hold your dress and thank god my ex didn’t drink that much and got us there in one piece!

Nice work collecting those photos! Forget the wedding dress, how do you ride a bike, PERIOD. I can’t last for more than 10 minutes before whining that it hurts my butt.

i’m too much of a klutz to maneuver that bike around in any sort of dress. the skirt is bound to rip off altogether! but you’re right, the photos are priceless!

if you’re by the beach a surrey bike could be easier to ride in when wearing your wedding dress. they are really fun to ride and have more room to sit :)
