Martina Liana bride, Valerie, was absolutely gorgeous at her romantic garden-inspired wedding in Saint Louis, Missouri. She was positively glowing in her lace wedding dress, and I think it’s safe to say that her groom loved it too! The lush greenery made the perfect backdrop for this stunning couple. Her elegant bouquet was the perfect finishing touch with pastel roses and hydrangeas. Valerie finished off her look with sparkling chandelier earrings and a vintage inspired hairpiece.
Her favorite part of the day? Their first look – a private moment between bride and groom that they’ll cherish forever. *Sigh*
From the bride: We originally wanted to have our wedding in Houston, Texas, where we live, but we changed our minds to have it in Saint Louis, Missouri, to make travel easier for our families. We chose the Forest Park Golf Course Clubhouse for the beautiful greenery around the venue and the wonderful indoor/outdoor feel of the reception space.
My advice for future brides? Whatever happens on your wedding day, just go with it, whether planned or not. Your wedding day is not a time to stress about unimportant details it is a day to share the love you have for your spouse with your family and friends.
