How to Share Wedding Outfit References
Wedding outfit references should explain the clothes independently from the faces.

Wedding outfit references should explain the clothes independently from the faces. A romantic photograph can establish the mood while still hiding the details a maker needs for a miniature interpretation.
Separate the reference roles
Label one image for each person's face and hairstyle. Then identify the dress, suit or other outfit photographs and any close detail that matters.
For example: “A and B are face references; C shows the dress silhouette; D shows the suit color.” This avoids accidentally copying a hairstyle from an old outfit fitting or a different expression from a distant ceremony shot.
Prioritize the silhouette
The outline of the dress, jacket length, sleeves and broad color areas will usually read more clearly than very fine lace or fabric texture. Decide which features are essential at the chosen size.
If a train, veil or wide skirt changes the footprint, mention it early. Those elements can affect the base and construction rather than being minor finishing details.
Explain accessories and color
Show the bouquet, shoes or other important accessory clearly if you want it represented. Confirm whether it is part of the standard figure or requires additional work.
Color can shift under venue lighting and filters. Add a neutral-light reference when a subtle shade matters, while recognizing that a miniature's materials and finish may not match fabric exactly.
Keep the venue separate from the order
A floral arch or decorated table in the photo is not automatically part of the figure. At VoxelPals, standard people-only figures can be ordered directly; backgrounds, arches, furniture and extra scene accessories are quoted separately.
Review the proof for the people and clothing first, then verify any agreed additional elements. Our wedding planning guide connects the outfit brief with the wider order.
A clear wedding reference pack preserves the details that matter without asking the designer to infer a complete miniature venue from every object visible in the original photograph.
