My Vintage Valentine: Lovers’ Day Gets a Sultry Makeover with Saffron + Scarlett

Saffron + Scarlet Valentines Wedding Inspiration

Valentine’s Day grew up and got a hot makeover: say hello to this sultry wedding inspiration from the mind of Tularosa Flowers‘ creative director, Dawn Weisberg! Taking cues from Renaissance still-life paintings and the jaw-droppingly beautiful Leanne Marshall ‘Talila’ gown, the day came together with vintage-leaning design details and plenty of roses for good Valentine’s Day measure.

The team met up at Hey Babe Ranch and pulled off a dreamy day thanks to planning + coordinating from Love Always Planning. We have a feeling you guys are going to fall head over heels for this one!!

Let the ethereal photos from Paco and Betty sweep you away…

Let’s talk the looks! Babe Hair By B designed an intricate braid and loose flowing curls for the beautiful bride, while Girl Meets Bongga gave her a glowing look to compliment that stunning gown! The groom went retro-mod, complete with floral velvet blazer from ASOS and saffron turtleneck from Amazon.

The bridal bouquet of roses, anemones, mimosa, and ranunculus was accented with hand-dyed silk ribbon from Hey It’s Oh So Pretty. Just loving those colors against her dress!
