The last couple weeks around here has been quite the whirlwind! We were thrilled to be hired on at 417 Bride (an offshoot of our local 417 Magazine) to style a photospread at Silver Dollar City for their upcoming summer issue. After weeks of scheduling models and fittings, pulling bridal gowns and accessories, picking out cakes, flowers and so much more, we finally pulled it all together for an incredible photoshoot earlier this week. We had such a great time and cannot wait to share the issue that will grace the newstands mid-summer. While Amy Pennington’s photos will be absolutely stunning in the spread, we just had to share a few “behind-the-scene” iPhone photos.
