Pampas grass can also be part of the bride’s crowning glory! If you’re going for a more “wild” or “natural” look without giving the “very put together” vibe, adding pampas grass to your hair accessory gives it the boho-chic style of your dreams. It’s another pretty addition that unifies the theme of your wedding.
