by Eileen Schilly

This collection is all about embracing the untamed beauty of nature and adding a touch of whimsy to your special day. Get ready to be swept off your feet!

What makes this collection wild?

When we say wild, we mean it! Eileen has taken the concept of wild and turned it into something truly extraordinary. Using solid satin, she has created dresses that represent the untamed spirit within all of us. These dresses are all about unique shaping and blousing, giving you a look that is both fierce and feminine. You'll feel like a queen of the jungle in these stunning creations!

And what about the whimsical?

Prepare to be transported to a world of whimsy with Eileen's flowing lace and intricate details. These dresses are like something out of a fairytale, with delicate lace that seems to dance in the wind. The whimsical touches add a touch of magic to your bridal look, making you feel like the heroine of your own story. Who needs a glass slipper when you have a dress like this?

But it's not just about the dresses...

To bring this wild and whimsical vision to life, Eileen teamed up with the talented Cherie Lynne of Cherie Lynne Photos and Chris from Heritage Florals. Together, they created a styled shoot that is truly out of this world. The florals are designed to look as if they are growing out of the ground and table, using moss to create a natural and organic feel. The flowers themselves create a stunning gradient of pink to blue, using color blocking techniques that are as unique as they are beautiful.

This collaboration of creative minds has resulted in a bridal dress collection and styled shoot that is unlike anything you've ever seen before. It's wild, it's whimsical, and it's everything you've ever dreamed of for your special day. So, if you're ready to embrace your inner wild child and add a touch of whimsy to your wedding, look no further than Be Everthine's wild and whimsical collection. Your happily ever after starts here!
