landlocked bride® | midwest + mountain west wedding inspiration

plan a modern wedding in the middle of the country

Go ahead, call me crazy on this one, but I have always loved colored wedding gowns (See: Colored Wedding Gowns).

When Jose Villa posted these pictures from a recent shoot he collaborated with Once Wed and other amazing vendors on, I had some serious big puffy heart love going on. While most of you (well, I’m assuming most of you) think this is pretty “dark,” I find the gown quite romantic and chic.

Now, you know that if you received one of these in the mail, you’d be in heaven (unless, of course, you’re not a fan of lavender).  But, this is a great touch, one that is small, but memorable.

Are you including anything in with your invitations? Feather, herbs, etc.? Share your ideas below!
