You know when you see something so amazing that you try to find a way to fit in your life ASAP? Maybe it’s an inspiring image from Pinterest or a gorgeous gown, like the one Candace @ Lovestru.ck Weddings + Events used as her muse for this shoot. After laying eyes on the Dori by Hayley Paige dress with a jewel-encrusted crop top and full skirt, we see how she dreamt up this romantic, mermaid-inspired scene based on it alone.
Thanks to Megan Pomeroy Photography for the photos below.







Even more dress-envy where that came from…





So dreamy!




A nontraditional boa with trailing greens for a sea-inspired look.




Candace says, Blooms & Bouquets hung glass globes filled with crushed sea glass and candles above the head table. They also draped the entire room with layers of soft lavender and blue fabric, and added a mirror to the top of the head table to bring to mind the reflective nature of water. Breathtaking!





White-chocolate covered cherry pearls in graham cracker sand made for one brilliant treat!
