Bridal Guide: For His Eyes Only: PG-13 Boudoir Photos

My fianc? listens half-heartedly whenever I talk about which cake flavor or Pantone color shade we should choose for our wedding, but his ears instantly perk up at the mention of boudoir. In my opinion, boudoir photo sessions are a fun idea for brides who want to flaunt their curves, give an unforgettable gift to their leading man, and who believe that confidence is sexy (raises hand). I've planned on surprising Edwin with just-for-him photos on our wedding day.

Here, I've picked out some of my PG-13 boudoir inspirations that are perfect for any girl who doesn't want to make her grandmother blush for days!

(<strong><a href="http://www.bridalguide.com/blogs/fashion-beauty/veil-trends%20" target="_hplink">Here's how to find the right veil for your personality.</a></strong>) It?s the perfect image to text to your groom right before you walk down the aisle! <br> <br> <span style="font-size: 10px;"><em>Photo Credit: <a href="http://www.elizabethmessina.com/" target="_hplink">Elizabeth Messina</a></em></span>

• Is your groom a <strong><a href="http://www.bridalguide.com/blogs/real-brides-speak-out/football-theme-wedding-ideas" target="_hplink">diehard sports fan</a></strong>?

It's a sweet way to show that you care about what <em>he</em> cares about. <br> <br> <span style="font-size: 10px;"><em>Photo Credit: <a href="http://www.redbootboudoir.com/?p=55" target="_hplink">Red Boot Boudoir Photography Studios</a></em></span>
