Not A Veil-Loving Bride?
It's not uncommon that modern brides aren't sold on the idea of wearing a veil {or even having a train}. Finally, there is a new trend surfacing as an alternative. It might not hold the traditional significance of a veil, but bridal capes are a fashionable and sophisticated addition to your wedding style. From princess and boho-inspired capes to sheer mid-length capes and capelets, this chic accessory is here to stay in 2018.
Not fully convinced you should complete your wedding gown with a chic cape? Just check out the gorgeous images below and find more inspiration on our Pinterest board {BridalCapes}.

Monthly Musing // 2017 Beauty Trends
The finishing touch to your bridal beauty is incorporating your favorite makeup look! Below are all of the 2017 makeup trends we are obsessing over, including subtle pink hues {from rosy eyelids to a pink pout}, strong highlighting, berry lips, and natural tones.
If you want a dramatic look, we love a berry colored lip or the idea of layering your highlight to create a beautiful glow. But if you're feeling boho-chic, stick with a matte finish and pink tones to create a natural, effortless look.

Summer is coming in HOT, and so are our favorite summer wedding trends! One trend we are obsessing over is color scheming with dusty rose. Deeper and richer than the ever popular blush, dusty rose is completely versatile. Whether you're looking to accessorize your head table or your bridal look, incorporating this color is the perfect way to achieve that warm summertime feel.
Pair dusty rose with navy or grey accents to keep your look modern and sleek; or add an element of glamour with gold metallic tones. Include a touch of greenery to pop the color and provide some contrast and added warmth.
For more inspiration on how to use dusty rose on your special day, go check out our {Dusty Rose} Pinterest board!
Little Black Details
Looking to add some flare to your big day?
We can all agree that white dresses make heads turn, but why let that stop you from having a little fun!? Make everyone's jaw drop by incorporating black details into your look. From heels to hair ties, the possibilities are endless. Including black accessories will not only spice up your wedding, but allow you to add a personal touch.
