Quiz: Which Wedding Dress Style From Anna Campbell’s Wanderlust Collection Best Fits Your Personal Style?

Sparkle and Romance may as well be world-renowned bridal designer Anna Campbell‘s middle names and her latest collection Wanderlust lives up to the distinction more than ever. The 13-piece collection is fit for the bohemian bride and features exclusive embroidered fabrics, floating silks, custom-designed laces, sexy new silhouettes, and the mesmerizing hand-beaded embellishments that are so intrinsically associated with the designer.

“This collection was all about staying true to the incredible embellishments and unique lace adornments that have
become iconic to Anna Campbell, but reinvigorating these details for a modern bride,” says Melbourne, Australia-based designer Anna Campbell. Wanderlust elevates wedding fashion to the next level with bold details such as jaw-dropping open backs with shimmering details, 3D floral appliqué embellishments, and thousands of hand-sewn sequins, sparkling glass beads, and pearls.

“Aside from the incredible quality we achieve, one of the true advantages of continuing to design and hand-make
dresses in Melbourne is that we have the flexibility to tailor each bride’s dress uniquely for her, choosing the most
flattering and comfortable lace or silk silhouette for her shape and style, and ensuring every sparkling detail is perfect. Our brides know that when they step into their dress on their wedding day, everything is going to not only fit beautifully, but also feel incredible,” says Anna.

Sophisticated Tropical 20-Guest Wedding at Sanara Tulum

July 10, 2018 | Junebug Weddings

When Chloe and Sae asked 20 of their closest family and friends to fly around the world to Mexico for their wedding at Sanara Tulum, they knew they had to make it worth their while! The couple relied on the local expertise of Diana Romo Weddings to bring the couple’s beach wedding dreams to life and create an unforgettable experience for all their guests. With a ceremony on the beach featuring a stunning display of tropical greenery designed by Maria Limón and a cozy reception at the venue’s open-air restaurant that featured lounge seating areas, elegant tablescapes, healthy food options, and mini bottles of Patron for each guest, we think they nailed it! Photographer Melissa Marshall had a plethora of beautiful photo spots to choose from and made use of every single one, from the waterfront bar to the tropical jungle to the modern interior of the resort.

The Couple:

Chloe and Sae

The Wedding:

Sanara Tulum, Quintana Roo, Mexico

Sanara Tulum was the perfect place for a small group. Not many hotels could accommodate only 20 guests and our budget could not cover other larger venues that required at least 60-70 guests. Most hotels are only available when the entire hotel was reserved, but Sanara Tulum allowed us to reserve a part of spaces to accommodate our budget. Plus, it had a refined contemporary design that was balanced with tropical jungle surroundings.

If you plan a destination wedding in Tulum, we highly recommend you find the venue first thing! It’s not easy because you won’t see the spot in person unless you are from the area, so you’ll have to research extensively. Once you have the venue booked, ask if they can refer a wedding planner. That was how we found Diana’s team! Her team had planned plenty of wedding experiences, and they provided us with useful information throughout the entire process. It is never easy to plan a wedding without a planner, but especially when you plan a destination wedding. We were very lucky to work with Diana’s team!

Our guests were the most important part of planning our wedding. We kept it very small for close friends and families and they came from all around the world. We understand that it is not easy to fly around the world for a 1-day event. We truly appreciated that they all joined us in Mexico!
