Love In Bloom: Three Beautiful Wedding Day Looks for Any Bride-To-Be
From fresh to bold, explore bridal beauty and bouquet combos that pair perfectly
August 26, 2026
What kind of bride are you? Do you love the “clean girl aesthetic,” or are you envisioning a bold red lip for the walk down the aisle? Unveil your dream wedding day beauty and bouquet inspiration with looks from Michelle Dunlap Design, jewelry from Continental Diamond and florals by three local florists at Glass House.
Romantic & Shimmery
For the hopeless romantic who wants to feel like a real-life princess on their wedding day, this look is for you. A swoon-worthy shimmer is swept across the eyes, while the same shimmer is gently tapped onto the lips for a light-reflecting finish. “The vision evolved into something softer, luminous and ethereal,” Michelle Dunlap, owner of Michelle Dunlap Design says.
Pink accents add a feminine touch and bring warmth to the complexion. Leaning into the delicacy of the look, Dunlap applied body oil on the décolletage, while the hair remains polished with soft curls gently pulled back at the front to highlight the makeup.

An exquisite Martina Liana Luxe ballgown from Bridal Accents Couture exudes romanticism. Chantilly lace and a regal drop waist are accented with a peplum element gathered at the hips for a voluminous silhouette. The final flourish? A lovely Chantilly cathedral-length veil.
A joyful bouquet by Candi’s Precious Petals adds another layer of enchantment featuring ranunculus, butterfly ranunculus, garden roses, scabiosa, nigella, sweet pea and lisianthus. Subtle, yet distinctive, gold twisted inside-out J-hoop earrings and a diamond solitaire engagement ring play into the fairytale and complement the glowing beauty details.
Clean & Natural
The goal of this look was simple with an elevated twist. Dewey, hydrated skin acts as the main character, paired with a light blush for a natural flush and a glossy lip. Long, lived-in curls were amplified with soft texture and a sense of movement, then finished with a shine spray for a polished effect.

An earthy bouquet by Sadie’s Floral Couture serves as a work of art featuring calla lilies and architectural blooms set against one of Glass House’s backdrops. Two gowns demonstrate a how clean and natural aesthetic can be interpreted in different ways.
“Amelise” by Milla Nova from Ivory Bridal Co. follows the natural shape of the body with a mermaid silhouette, while the scoop neckline and gathered chiffon create an organic feel. “Miller” by Divine Atelier, also from Ivory Bridal Co., is another example of how the clean-and-natural theme can complement a unique gown.
To let the skin remain the focal point, jewelry is kept minimal with diamond and South Sea cultured pearl earrings and a three-stone engagement ring.
Bold & Playful
This look is for the nearlywed who isn’t afraid to take risks and confidently strut down the aisle in full glam. “The complexion was intensified with fuller coverage, stronger contour, bolder blush and more defined eyes and brows to complement the lip without overpowering it,” Dunlap says.
Energetic and vibrant, the lips are the star of the show with a bold red Dior shade. A sleek, voluminous ponytail adds a powerful edge, creating both structure and movement.

A fashion-forward gown from LaNoire Bridal, “Queenstown” by La Premiere Bridal, features a square neckline and deep illusion side panels for a bold peek-a-boo moment. Embellished with pearls and intricate Indian embroidery, it delivers the ultimate “wow” factor. A chic emerald-cut semi-mount engagement ring paired with dazzling diamond huggie earrings adds a touch of glamour.
To further the playful energy, Studio C Floral crafted a dynamic bouquet of peonies, phalaenopsis orchid, gerbera daisies, apple blossom, alocasia, snake ball allium, Quicksand roses and hanging amaranthus. Who knew the newest trend would be matching your lip color to your bouquet flowers?
