A New Year, A New Look, and Other Exciting Happenings

After an eventful year and lots of hard work, Emilliner is excited to introduce a new look and line for 2011 inspired by my own wedding this past September. Deciding what headpiece to wear was more difficult than finding a dress. I choose a hint of color with blush silk roses and a delicate spray of floating feathers to compliment my cage veil. The bridesmaids also donned fascinators of beautiful white feathers and of course the flower girls were too sweet with their feather starbursts.

A huge thanks to Maya Laurent Photography, Kat Sterrett for the amazing makeup and Loni Wilson for my beautiful hairstyle.

Soft feathers, delicate silk, a touch of sparkle- all textures that set the mood for this latest collection. Combining a nod to vintage millinery and graphic silhouettes, my hope is to offer the modern bride a stylish alternative to the traditional tulle and tiara. The feminine and one-of-a-kind fascinators create a gorgeous focal point for the bride wishing to go veil-less. Handcrafted from the highest quality materials, Emilliner headpieces can add a touch of color and whimsy to the bridal ensemble.

Emilliner's collection is currently available at The Wedding Studio (Broad Ripple) Indianapolis, and will soon be available for purchase online. See check out the new catalogue here.
