Capitol Inspiration: Steampunk Bridal Inspiration ~ Hair, Makeup, & Design

Look #2: Steampunk Bride

Yesterday we featured our first bridal inspiration look, Victorian, and now we are bringing the edge with our second look, Steam Punk.

I have always been infatuated with the steampunk style. I love how it is the perfect combination of punk and rustic – with a splash of vintage. I also love how the design seems to have a mechanical flare to it, daringly mixing browns and blacks and almost always involving clocks or gears.

Our Steampunk bride, Amelia, wore a beautiful ivory wedding dress with a bold, black sash, black & bronze accessories, a daring black birdcage veil and naturally, brown boots. The punk-styled wedding hair, and edgy eye makeup completed our steampunk bridal look!
