airbrush dress alternative wedding ideas from Offbeat Wed (formerly Offbeat Bride)

When a hand-airbrushed wedding dress at a colorful forest wedding slayed us forever…

When a bride customizes her dress like this, we’ve got to bow down and give it props. Artist Taylor and her partner Christopher rocked a most colorful forest wedding in California for which we fell hard. Taylor made all of the bouquets and boutonnieres, centerpieces, and of course, airbrushed her own flippin’ wedding dress!

But the rest of it is just as creative and lovely. Her multi-hued hair in intricate braids, the rainbow flowers, the huge colored Jenga, her kick-ass wedding boots, and the cascading rainbow flower cake. It’s all making our day and dazzling our eyes. You just have to see it for yourself…

Hair Glitter is the wedding accessory you didn’t even know you needed!

You might remember our sponsor oVertone as the collection of colorful-infusing conditioners that help you keep your mermaid/unicorn/alien/fairy hair vibes going between dye jobs. (And the only reason my hair stays remotely purple between trips to the salon, as I refuse to take cold showers.) But that’s not the only way oVertone is revolutionizing your head. Because they’re back with something even more exciting…

Freaking HAIR GLITTER!!!

Look at all the ways you can use it…

Gold crowns, purple hair, and tears galore at this Oregon schoolhouse wedding

HK and Josh planned a small ceremony at one of their favorite places, Historic Soap Creek Schoolhouse followed by a reception at LUC restaurant.

You’re definitely going to want to see the gold crown + purple hair, the tearful first look, the tearful ceremony entrance, and well tears all around all the time.
