Not every bride has a picture-perfect group of bridesmaids to share the pre-wedding moments, and that’s completely fine. When the bride has predominantly male friends, she might feel like she’s missing the traditional “getting ready” photos that many brides cherish. One creative bride, however, decided to embrace her unique friendship circle, and the outcome was absolutely heartwarming.
Meet 24-year-old Brazilian bride, Camila, a computer engineer surrounded by a close-knit group of male friends. As one of only a few women in her college program, it’s no surprise that many of her friends are guys. While planning her wedding, Camila found herself scrolling through images of brides with their female friends in matching robes, sipping champagne, and sharing laughs. This made her feel a bit down, realizing she wouldn’t have that experience.
Determined not to let that stop her, Camila decided to create her own version of the classic bridal photo shoot, and it turned out to be a blast. The talented photographer, Miguel Santos, captured the joyous moments, resulting in images that quickly gained popularity online. “I’m thrilled with the photos! I never expected them to go viral, but they make me laugh every time I look at them,” Camila expressed.
The bridal party may not have been traditional, but they fully engaged in the process. The guys were all in, helping Camila with the dress and even enjoying spa treatments. They kicked back with some drinks, and the laughter was contagious. “The photoshoot was a lot of fun—sometimes we had to pause for a moment to recover from our laughter,” Camila noted.
The camaraderie and affection this group shares for Camila was evident, and they didn’t hesitate to don pink silk robes for the occasion. After all, who could pull off those poses with such flair if not these supportive friends?
