Anne and Philip's wedding, recently featured on Style Me Pretty, was one of my favorite weddings at Blackberry Farm - a place which, no matter the season, is an undeniably perfect spot for a destination wedding! This stunning, rustic Tennessee wedding, planned by Jennifer Laraia, showcased the winter mountain landscape combined with the bride's color palette of gorgeous neutral colors. Anne was such an incredibly happy and radiant bride, which is truly reflected in her photographs by Natalie Watson Photography. She loved makeup - and liked the idea of playing up her striking brown eyes, so I really brought the focus to her eyes with rich browns and long, black eyelashes. I allowed the cold winter season to inspire her lip and cheek color, using deep winterberry colors to finish her classic bridal look.

Her Romona Keveza dress was so elegant, and so perfect for a winter wedding in the mountains! (And her Jimmy Choo shoes were out of this world!) One of my favorite elements of the wedding were the bridesmaids wearing Monique Lhuillier dresses wrapped in fur stoles, gifts from the bride to wear to the wedding. Such a perfect bridesmaid gift for the ultimate destination wedding! (and such a luxe detail to complement a cold, winter wedding!)

Anne and Philip - who truly looked like Prince Charming! - were such a delightful bride and groom, and the day could not have been more perfect with their sweet families surrounding them at the wedding! I loved some of the special moments captured : Anne's sister touching up the bride's makeup, Anne with her mother and sisters, and little moments between the bride and groom. This luxury winter wedding was full of fresh mountain air, warm fires, and stunning, unforgettable details!

Being a makeup artist is a dream job. Having your work featured in Martha Stewart Weddings is a dream...and this past fall I was featured in Martha Stewart Weddings! Larkin and Eric's absolutely stunning wedding at Blackberry Farms was featured in an 8-page spread in the November 2016 issue of Martha Weddings. And let me tell you, Martha picked an amazing one to feature.

This wedding was the perfect marriage of bridal simplicity and luxe detail. It was like a fairytale wedding hidden in the woods at Blackberry Farm. Everything about it felt just perfectly exquisite and celestial. Even Larkin's makeup - she wanted her makeup to be "ethereal," like a "woodland fairy."

The flowers were magical. I don't know any other way to describe them. Amy Osaba made them just come to LIFE.

One of the most breathtaking moments of the day was when I saw Larkin step out in her dress, designed by Pnina Tornai. I remember actually catching my breath when I saw her in it. It was positively the most striking wedding dress I had ever laid eyes on. The exquisite beading and the plunging back with its dramatic detail...it was otherworldly.

One of my favorite things about working on weddings at Blackberry Farm is how so many of the brides that come there hire the most talented creatives. They hire us to do what we do best, which means they don't usually control too much of the process, so everyone's creativity is just flowing and it all culminates in this incredible event. I love that. And Blackberry Farm itself is such a stunning venue, from the natural landscape to the animals meandering around on the farm, to every detail being top notch...it's the ultimate luxury mountain venue.

Enjoy this peek into the wedding!
