Romantic Ballet-Inspired Wedding Editorial with Intricate Bridal Tiaras

 

I’m so excited to share this elegant bridal editorial whose styling is both on point--and en pointe!⁠


Morgan Taylor Artistry, AMV Weddings, and Elephant Limbo drew inspiration for the photoshoot in part from the iconic series of ballerina paintings by Degas, selecting professional dancers for the roles of bride and groom. The historic Glen Foerd Mansion in Philadelphia provided the opulent backdrop for the project.

Nayara Lopes, principal dancer at the Philadelphia Ballet, wears Edera Jewelry Hyacinthe and Siena Tiaras, and the Verona Juliet Cap Veil. These heirloom-quality bridal headpieces are adorned with our signature, handcrafted lace motifs, as well as freshwater pearls and vintage crystals.⁠

The romantic gowns provided by Barbara Kavchok Bridal bring to mind tutus with their frothy layers of tulle and hints of blush pink.

Luxury stationery by Elephant Limbo and lush floral designs from Whisper & Brook Flower C. complete the elegant effect.

Named for the setting of one of the most famous love stories of all time, the Verona cap is an utterly romantic design combining an intricate headpiece with a blush-colored veil. Its two-tiered construction means that the top layer of the veil can be worn as a blusher, or folded back for a more traditional Juliet cap silhouette.
