REAL BRIDE: Brenna

 

Blake + Brenna

04.14.18

Sometimes the simplest wedding details make the biggest impact, and this Something White Bridal Boutique real bride Breanna’s day is proof. Set at the breathtaking Mildale Farm, this Kansas City-area spring wedding embraced natural beauty with a fresh, woodsy aesthetic and effortlessly romantic style.

By choosing a scenic outdoor venue and letting the surroundings shine, Breanna + Blake elevated their day with stunning seasonal florals and thoughtful, minimal decor. Paired with Breanna’s timeless bridal look and the couple’s infectious joy, this celebration is full of wedding dress inspiration, spring wedding ideas, and the kind of relaxed elegance Something White Bridal Boutique is known for. This real SW couple truly takes the cake.

What advice would you give to other brides in regards to dress shopping?

"Go into your appointment with an open mind + don't zero in on one specific thing. Just have a short list of 'definitely not' styles or looks that you want to stay away from + go from there. I knew I absolutely did not want sleeves for my spring style wedding, but other than that I was open minded."

When did you realize Blake was "the one"?

"When Blake decided to finish college at Emporia State University about four-six ish months into us dating. This meant we would start a long distance relationship, but I had no fears or doubts about him moving away + us not being able to make it work. It just felt right."
