Birdcage Veil Mask

Let me tell you a little story called Why I love Etsy. 


Because I get customers who see this:



And envision this:


 Because when you make a purchase for said customer looking for a vintage citrine brooch, it comes to you like this:


Because I'm sure this fabulous bride will try her veil in every way possible. Because she's cool:


Because I still can't believe every day is full of beautiful, new, shiny things. Shiny people. 



Go visit Chasing Greener Days for lots o' awesome vintage stuff.

Harry Potter Wedding


A hat for a world of Harry Potter themed wedding?! YES PLEASE. I love love love love love a bride with a touch of brown or tan in her ensemble. It is so stylish and fearless so totally different. Right on par with the rest of Kristi's fabulously unique look!


Kristi sent me these to die inspiration photos for her ensemble. 

"The feel of the wedding is going to be vintage and whimsical with some steam punk-like, gothic flair."

Girl after my own heart. She wore Michelle Roth's McKenzie. My bridal gown was Michelle Roth as well so I felt the warm and fuzzies as soon as I saw it.  MR really brings a classic funk doesnt she?! A pattern on a wedding dress is so rock n roll if you ask me. 

 

Kristi created her world of Harry Potter at the MAGNIFICENT Foundry in New York. A renovated iron foundry from the 1800s! Sigh*

 

 This dusty blue bolero plucked all of my creative chords! So moody and romantic. 

  

She loved the shape of the Duchess C mini tricorn hat and I knew immediately which fabrics I wanted to use. 

The brown and blue brocade damask from the Peacock Victorian Mini Top Hat. And of course my unmatched dusty blue dupioni silk. I threw some tan and ivory into the mix and crossed my fingers Kristi would go for it!! 

A little nod to the snow owl and a mix of vintage buttons to bring the whimsy.


Go for it she DID. Look at these two!! Absolutely good enough to eat adorable. 

 


 
 

J'adore the candle ceremony backdrop.

 

I just want to pull up a chair to this dessert table.
 

Hooray to owl cakes!!! I love the clean, rustic, DELICIOUS feel of this.

     

Rocking the detachable birdcage veil. Hard.

Oh hey, tablescape. I'll take one of everything, please.

 

Thank you EVER SO to Kristi for sharing her gorgeous day! Years of MAGIC to you and your equally as awesome, top hat wearin' hubby!
