When planning Juno & Joy I knew I wanted strong female icons at the heart of it and so Juno was the perfect choice. She is stoic, depicted almost as war-like in appearance yet warm and nurturing too. The month of June was also named after her and to this day sustains its strong connotations with weddings - so I knew we’d be in safe hands with Juno at our helm!
One of the regular features I’ll be creating are inspiration boards - different style ideas you can input into your wedding day and ways you can carry your personal tastes through your celebration. With that in mind I thought it might be nice to have a look at the style of wedding Juno might have were she one of our planning brides. Here’s my Juno board…
So here she is - our Juno…what do you think? I felt she’d carry a swag of florals and greenery rather than a delicate bouquet (go big or go home eh?) - her immense beauty speaks for itself so a simple olive branch crown is enough…and why the peacock feather mosaic? Goddess Juno is often painted with a peacock by her side…as it’s part of her identity, I felt she’s carry it through her wedding day style.
