Romantic Silk Taffeta Gown

January 19, 2018

 

On a lovely day in September, my brother married his love. Kira wanted something romantic and feminine, so we settled on a silk taffeta gown with a corseted basque waist, handmaid silk flowers and a beaded lace neckline.

Our family! (Side bar, I whipped together my own dress the week before! [I’m the one on the bride’s left.])

 

 

….Happily ever after!

Hello, World!

August 8, 2015

Greetings, lovelies!

 

It seems fitting that the first post on my fresh new blog on my fresh new website be about my own wedding.

On June 27th 2015, my beloved and I got married! This was the most challenging project I have ever encountered. Not on a technical level- but as a designer, I know every variable and option. It was so hard to narrow down what I wanted!

Of course, it did help when I decided on a costume change for the reception! My husband and I had been taking ballroom dance, so I needed something I could dance in.

My gorgeous sister Rachel was my Maid of Honor, I couldn’t resist making her a fabulous gown!
