Wedding bouquet alternative idea: herb bundle bouquet

This Halloween wedding fashion inspiration has some of my very favorite things: plenty of rings, an herb bundle bouquet, crystals, skulls, and a forest backdrop.

How about dried flowers + gold foil wedding nail art?!

I am ALL about this gold foil + dried flowers wedding nail art

If I were to describe my current favorite wedding nail art, I think I’d go with a transparent base with dried flowers and gold foil. Oh but WAIT… that exists? And it’s in easy-peasy, non-permanent press-on form? I’m so in. I spied these temporary wedding nails over at Jane Safarian Nail Art, who coincidentally also has a bajillion more styles to choose from. Think chrome ombre nails, holographic nails, pink marble, 3D water droplets, and that dried flower look on black, taupe, and more.
