Kayla’s Dons the Dress

After finishing hair and makeup, Kayla’s mother, Kathey, helped her into the stunning wedding dress. The gown delicately outlines her curved as it plunged into a vanishing back. With delicate straps, intricate lace, and a deep v neckline she was picture perfect. Her beautiful bridal look was completed with a bejewled headband and cathedral length veil.
