Hello, beautiful people! is here & ready to kick spring bridal season into gear! We have some exciting news headed your way very soon, so stay tuned ✨

Seeing our gowns on our brides is the absolute best! Meghan bought two gowns at our last market one for her engagement photos and one for her wedding! Her wedding is in April 2022 so we’ll have to wait patiently for those photos but for now we’ll heart eyes over her simple elegant engagement gown!

Long time no see! I have not fallen off the face of the earth! We’ve been going through a lot of changes and took a small hiatus! I’ve had some consigners and customers requesting info on our fall pop-up, and I’m here for an update!
After a lot of careful consideration, we are going to forgo our fall pop-up. I hope you’ll stick around to visit us for our Spring 2022, and if we are very lucky we’ll be able to execute our true vision on a larger scale than ever before! We will continue growing our online presence so please keep an eye on our site and Instagram in the meantime!

Thank you for your continued support 💕

Elopements have been on the rise since 2020 hit us with guest list limitations and ever changing restrictions and safety precautions. But full disclosure we’ve always loved a good elopement!
Intimate, romantic, cost effective, there are a lot of pros to keeping your “big” day small.
✨
Are you team elopement? Or team the bigger the better wedding?

A few tips & tricks that may seem obvious, but so many brides forget!
The absolute biggest tip I can give brides that isn’t on our list, is to savor the day, enjoy every sweet moment, remember what this day is about, you are beautiful and your dress will be perfectly YOU!

For those who were blessed with a moment like this on their special day, or are looking forward to one, hug your dad extra tight today if you can. For those who grieve this moment being a memory you’ll never share with your dad or father figure, I feel your pain today and I’m sending you love. ❤️
