We have all dreamed of doing it. Packing our backs, not telling a soul and jumping on a plane with our love to tie the knot! Planning your wedding with family and close friends can undoubtedly be an incredibly precious and special time in any bride's life. We know because many of the team here at Anna Campbell, including Anna, have done it! Just like so many of our gorgeous brides, we spent months creating our dream wedding Pinterest boards, designing stationary, planning seating charts and finding the perfect bridesmaids dresses. And it's because we've done this that we can say with some authority that there comes a point in every bride's journey where eloping might sound like a good idea! For us, there will always be something about the romance, mystery and spontaneity of getting married in your dream location (Paris, Italy, New York?) without telling a soul that gets our hearts beating a little faster! Plus, you don't need to work our where to seat those tricky guests... Sounds appealing, right?

Well, if eloping is something that might be for you, look no further for inspiration that these stunning photos from Kathi and Chris of Vanlight Photography, who have us swooning by combining not only the beauty of Venice (definitely a top five elopement destination, in our books!) with our hand-beaded, vintage-inspired sparkling Sierra Dress and Summer Headpiece, but also magical floristry and table styling that has us wishing we could do-over our own weddings!

Our tip? Make sure you carry your custom Anna Campbell in hand-luggage to avoid any lost baggage disasters! Oh, and don't forget to invite us too, please!

Part of our Spirit collection, the Sierra is a dress that captures the whimsical, bohemian and romantic essence of Anna Campbell - perfect for the bride who wants to sparkle and shimmer on her wedding day (and really, who hasn't dreamed of wearing a dress hand-embellished with sparkling jewels!?) With a low back, customizable silk and lace skirt options and beaded shoulder detailing, all finished with an ivory silk bow, the Sierra is feminine prettiness perfected.
