Real Wedding: Princess Bride Gown

 I adore Bride Kate's beautiful September 2015 wedding in Milwaukee! She ordered the Princess Bride gown and the Ivory Birdcage veil from my collection. Kate had a really special request to have part of the lining of her wedding gown be made from her Grandmother's wedding gown! How sweet is that!It made her gown so special and made just for her.

A wedding gown with pockets adds a chic and classic element.

The flower girls wore the Ruffle Collar Dress in Eggplant from my collection!

Real Wedding: Fairy Tale Gown, White Lace

Bride Tara was so wonderful to work with, she visited me at my Chicago studio to order the Fairy Tale Gown in white lace and cotton. We did a couple of fittings on her gown to get everything just right.  She is one of the most positive, sunny brides I have had the pleasure to work with! Tara got married at the Secret Garden Honky Tonk BBQ in Chicago, August 2013.  Photography is by Photo I.D.

A lovely note from the bride (made my day!):

I wanted to write you and let you know what an absolute hit my dress was on our big day! So many people commented on how lovely it was, and how they were blown away by the design, the fit, the lace, the bodice...you name it, it got a compliment! One of the best came from my little 4-year-old pal Natalie, "You look like a swan and you look pretty." You really can't beat that!

Real Wedding: Rendezvous Gown

 

I'm so excited to share these photos from Katie's beautiful March 2013 wedding in Port St. Joe, Florida! I love the purely gorgeous ocean background!  The bride ordered the strapless Rendezvous style gown in white cotton and eyelet with added buttons on the back zipper placket (customized).  Katie and her mom came to my studio for a fitting, they were both so wonderful to work with.  Really one of the sweetest mother daughter pair I've had the pleasure to work with!

Happy Friday!  Photos are from the Committed Love Fashion show last month, modeled by Ulyana, this is one of my new wedding gown designs with lace rose flowers around the strapless bodice. This gown is a mix of lace and eyelet (with pockets).  More photos from the runway coming soon!
