MARK YOUR CALENDARS!!

Our time has been set for Fashion Week!  I will be showing my fall bridal collection as the Finale of Fashion Week on Saturday, September 11th at 9pm!

check out www.couturefashionmag.com for more info and to subscribe to a wonderful magazine!

Krista came to me several months before the wedding with her mother’s wedding dress that she had handmade in 1974 still wrapped in it’s original keepsake box and turned it over to me to re-create it into something new while leaving behind the memories that the dress held for her and her family.  We sat and brainstormed and sketched several ideas and decided on a silhouette and fabric that we were going to add to the original dress.  In the end we removed the sleeves, the high neck, the a-line shape of the skirt and created a beautiful one of a kind mermaid dress with added beaded silk duipioni and a bit of sparkle!  Krista was able to bring apart of her families bridal past right into the future and of course she did it in style!

We specialize in bringing the past into the present with

our gown re-design services.  As wonderful as the idea is of

wearing our mothers wedding gown might be, most of us

would take one look at it scrap the idea.

That’s where we step in!

We take that small piece of tradition and re-design it,

changing as much or as little as you would like

and bring it right into today and turn it

into your exact dream dress.

Custom Bridal Design

What bride doesn’t want a custom designed gown, one that has everything

they’ve ever dreamed of and fits them perfectly.  But, not many of us

have the budget for a multi-thousand dollar dress.That’s where we want

to step in and turn your dreams into reality, all while staying right on budget!

We custom design everything from simple beach wedding dress

to the ultrimate princess gown and everything in between.

We work with you to design the gown from scratch using all

of your ideas of what your dream dress should look like and taking

into account what is going to fit you the best!  We involve you

in as much as you would like, from fabric shopping to

joining in on the embellishing!  We certainly take care of the

bride,but we’re just as good at taking care of your bridesmaids

and your groom!  We use a mix of unique patterns & fabrics in your

color scheme to also create the wedding party of your dreams!

Wedding Day Styling

Your wedding day is one of the most magical days of your life,

however it can also be a stress filled day.  You’ve got family greeting

guests, groom and groomsmen hopefully getting dressed correctly,

maybe a planner or friends setting up the final touches at the ceremony

and reception site, and then there’s you and your bridesmaids

getting hair, nails, make-up done and trying to get dressed…

We come in and whether you’re wearing a dress from us or not,

get you and all of your girls dressed, steamed, and perfected right up until

you walk down the isle and then again before you walk back

into the reception.  And of course whether before the

ceremony or after we also are on-set for all of your pictures making

sure everything down to every strand of hair is perfect on everyone!

Just a little outside view to make the day run perfectly smooth!

Bridesmaids Dress re-Design

Whether you’ve been a bridesmaid once or a doze  times, most likely those dresses are still sittingin your closet.  Why not make a few smalladjustments and turn them into somethingyou will wear again!  That’s our idea at least.
It’s great for the bridesmaid that wants something new from something they already own or for the bridelooking for a completely unique gift for their bridesmaids! Why not give them something they will love, agift certificate to have their dress re-designed,after the wedding of course!

Custom and re-Made Jewelry

We offer custom jewelry design for every part of your

wedding.  From a custom pair of earrings for the rehearsal

dinner to a dynamic set for the big day and even the perfect

gift for all of your bridesmaids and family!

We work with all types of metals and stones and

with you to get exactly the piece that you

have imagined.  We can start from scratch or

we can re-make any hand-me-down pieces from

family or friends that you love, but want to change

just a bit to make it more you!

Custom Unique Bouquets

Weddings today have an imagination of their own, with every

single part of it being completely customizeable to fit your dreams!

So why not make your bouquet all your own too!  We work with

several different mediums to create a completely customized

bouquet for you and yourbridal party, we can even

do the boutineers and corsages.

Our most popular is the brooch bouquet.  We take acollection of antique

brooches that you gather from family, friends, etc and create

wonderfully sparkly bouquet that no one will ever forget!

We can also use rhinestones, jewelry, beads & candles (amazing for

an outdoor evening wedding) to make your “flowers” all your own!
