Hope my wife doesn't mind... I was playing around with Microsoft digital image suite and was trying the emphasise and colourise functions

By the way, I didn't take the photo - our wedding photographer took that lovely shot.



Desaturated and blurred the background, and then colourised the flowers and veil/dress. What do you think?

Beautiful bride!

I'd go a little lighter on the pink - looks a bit "digital" right now. Hand-tinting is usually more delicate.

Blue dress? Thinking of a song ...

Notable halos in your blurred area, especially around the hair where it bleeds into the blurred background. You need to do this on a layer with a mask or at least some cloning to keep it clean.

Oh, forgot - your software doesn't support layers. Sorry!
