I am so excited to kick off this beauty series on styling a bridal headpiece! Pairing Haute Bride and Hayley Paige pretty much guarantees some seriously pretty bridal style, and today’s feature is no exception, if I do say so myself! I partnered with the H-Team to style a series of hairstyling tutorials paired with gowns from Hayley’s latest collection and Haute Bride’s couture bridal accessories and today is just part 1 of 3! Moderne Beauty created 3 stunning bridal looks to complement the fresh-off-the-runway gowns and 1985 Luke Photography captured all the pretty!

Regal Purple, Gold, and Champagne Wedding Palette

Spring is the time for sweet lavender and lilac inspiration, but I’m in the mood for today’s regal purple palette! A subtle shift between shades of eggplant and plum, gold and champagne, adds depth and character to a palette that can so easily come across one note. Foil and crystal details give the palette a bit of sparkle, which I am never opposed to!

Rustic Industrial Wedding inspired by Fixer Upper on HGTV!

Today’s rustic industrial wedding inspiration goes out to everyone else who is completely obsessed with HGTV’s Fixer Upper! My boyfriend and I are hooked on the show, thanks to a combination of the gorgeous home renovations, absurdly low Texas housing pricing, and the goofy charm of Chip and Joanna. We created our own drinking game to go along with the show – ‘shiplap’ and ‘open this wall up’ feature prominently – and being the weirdo that I am, I went ahead and created a wedding inspiration board to go with it!
