As much as a wedding editor may swoon over an abundance of pinnable details (guilty), there is something so utterly refreshing about elegant simplicity – and today I have the perfect example from Craig Hodge Photography! Rachel and Zack had a lovely summer garden wedding at Oakland Manor in Hopkinsville, KY, surrounded by lush green grounds in the full bloom of summer in the south. It doesn’t get any more classic than their wedding – especially when it comes to Rachel’s utterly gorgeous bridal style! She paired delicately tinted berry lips and soft winged eyeliner for a fresh, clean wedding day look. Equally romantic is her sparkling lace wedding dress with beaded cap sleeves and an absolutely stunning train!
