Shot by photographer Christina Marie and styled by Simply Classic Events at the sprawling Liberty Station location of San Diego’s largest craft brewery, Stone Brewing Co., today’s featured shoot is an edgy, unabashed ode to ’90s grunge, which has been making a surprising modern comeback in the beauty and fashion worlds.

“Leather, lace, and combat boots—that era’s iconic shoe—were the driving inspirations behind this shoot,” Christina says. “The style was made romantic by incorporating demure dresses; a luxuriant profusion of flowers and foliage; and lots of texture in the form of raw crystals, crushed velvet, and cinder blocks.” 

Scroll on to see how Christina and her creative team borrowed bits and pieces from the ’90s revival to create a boldly innovative nuptial setting.
