Does every woman picture the day she may stand across from her love and say “I Do”? Yes to a lifetime of building together, of lifting each other up, of conquering both individual dreams and united dreams? I was never that little girl… I surely equated marriage with ruffles and big bows, permed hair, questionable shoes and a day of not climbing trees. I didn’t like pink. I played in the mud. I favored my horses and boots over any doll or dress up heels. As I have grown, and age has graced me with life’s experiences, my tastes too have evolved. Realization hit…. being a bride doesn’t reflect that of a lifetime barbie experience. There is a way for every woman…
Its a time to reflect what lies inside you. To shine outward and be the truest you.
Here, 4 of our free people girls dress and accessorize their truest selves; Candy, Lou, Meadow, and Ginger…

I’m obsessed with the first look! My style is somewhere between Candy & Meadow – earthy, yet dreamy & feminine. My wedding dress was white, because I love the symbolism of purity and new beginnings.

I love the make up of the models! It is so gorgeous and looks so natural. Is there a tutorial?
My favorite is the first look. I love her hair as well as the makeup.
Recently, towards the end of last year, I have thought about my future wedding. Alas, I am not dating anyone at this time, but just picturing myself in a white Victorian lace gown, long and flowing, with my dark curls tied back with pinned flowers, and having my chocolate eyes done in a simple cat eye look with dark red lipstick to top it off makes me smile. I actually have gathered some pictures (plus the song I would be walking down the aisle to) that I’ve found on my search for the “perfect” wedding to get inspired when the big day does arrive and I walk down the aisle towards my soon-to-be-husband. Again, thinking of “our” wedding never came to mind until recently, now that I am past my teenage years and becoming a more mature young woman. I do hope to share my ideas with the man I will be dating and that together we can agree on what is right for our wedding. It will be another important day of our lives that we shall never forget.
These are beautiful!!!!!!!!
Forgot to mention, I am definitely Candy, love the Annabella Silk Gown the model is wearing
so so lovely!

so incredibly gorgeous….each bride looks like she has a “story to tell” so to speak…a very fairy tale…a rustic woodland adventure…and the free spirited wanderlust of a bohemian bride…. https://www.etsy.com/shop/TheWeaverOfWords
planning my wedding right now and i’m having a nightmare of a time finding the right dress. love the dress on the hanger i’m wondering where can i find it?
Love FREE PEOPLE and their aesthetic! So much like the shoot I did recently!
Is the dress that is hanging by itself yours? It looks like the one you posted on instagram and I have yet to find it!
It’s the Rachel Scallop Lace Poncho!
I love the words of this post – it describes exactly my own experience!
The first dress is so beautiful! :)

The lip color and flower crown of the first look is such a perfect combination!
Those are some of the most beautiful flowers I have ever seen! Who did them???
The flowers are by The Little Branch
The first dress!!! I thought about purchase that dress as my wedding gown, unfortunately back then (a year ago) there was only one review and no FP pics, in addition the dress is pink…my culture requires women to wear white or red only, pink gown is for second marriage…Free People really should come up a white one for the first dress!
FP should do a quiz for those of us who aren’t sure which FPgirl we are!
I agree with Laurel ^-^
The infinity dress isn’t the same in the link. Is it coming soon?
It would be ever so lovely if a tutorial or a beauty page with the list of makeup used in these pictures was created! Xoxox
These are amazing! One of each please ;)

All these looks are goegeous. I like the three best most, full-length is the one thing I have decided for my future wedding gown (whenever, if ever, that happens). A ldot of brides get married in something very grand, but I have always had my thoughts on something more 1930’s-style, flowy. The flowers are gorgeous here as well!
