A Simplistic, Rustic Winter Wedding Planned By The Bride Herself

This simplistic, rustic winter wedding was planned and coordinated by the bride herself, and we love every single detail about it! Elaina and Daniel knew a top priority for their wedding day was guaranteeing that they would walk away with photos to cherish for a lifetime, and Rachel Driskell Photography was the ultimate choice for making that happen. Crisp, light-and-airy winter days are always stunning, and the bright, lush greenery and soft blush and ivory blooms from Unforgettable Floral complement this cozy scene in the most perfect way. Elaina could not have been a more stunning bride, as her V-neck, floral-detailed, illusion sleeve bridal gown from Brickhouse Bridal was the perfect choice for a winter wedding and went almost too perfectly with her glam from Hey Lovely! Brickhouse Bridal not only provided the perfect bridal gown, but also the perfect dusty blue bridesmaid dresses for Elaina’s six bridesmaids to wear while they stood by her side. Scroll to see all of the simplistic and rustic aspects of this winter wedding! Cheers to Mr. and Mrs. Lee!
