Crowning Queen @juliaklindquist on her wedding day with her bespoke #katemiles veil 👑 Photos by @benhessphotography
Something old (MOM'S DRESS), something new (#katemiles GARTER), something borrowed (GRANDMOTHER'S PEARLS), something blue (EMBROIDERED SHOES)! 🦋 More in Bio! Photography by @benhessphotography
@juliaklindquist wore her Bespoke #katemiles Bridal Veil with the same wedding gown that her mom wore when she married Julia's dad in 1992 at the same age! How cool is that? Photo by @benhessphotography
HEY! So, here's the best part... Riane's dress had a short dancing dress under her full outer skirt. The long skirt was designed to spin off during their formal first dance when a Western Country Swing song came on, and underneath was the 50's style party dress! How fun is that?? Plus, her custom garter and hairpiece were made from the same hand beading and lace appliqués as the dress. First four photos by @kelwardphotography
More from Riane's custom gown! (The last one is our favorite 😉) Photography by @kelwardphotography 💯
We love the back detail Riane chose for her #custom fairytale wedding gown. More to follow! Photography by @kelwardphotography
@kelwardphotography had such a gift for capturing light. 3/3 throwback to our 'Eloquence' gown.
The details on our 'Eloquence' gown were stitched into place entirely by hand with subtle hints of beading and vintage lace. Truly #oneofakind Photos by @kelwardphotography | Model @talia.e_047
Remembering our 'Eloquence' gown and missing it's soft, whimsical hues 🌸 Photography by @kelwardphotography and modeling by @talia.e_047
