Wedding Gowns
Unique, Couture, eco friendly, Natural Wedding Gowns
My favorite part in designing and creating a wedding gown is the connection I make with the bride and her vision for what she sees for that most special day. Especially those who chose an organic concept and have an idea of sustainability.
Unifying an elegant look and feel.
Once a connection has been made, I remain close in communication with each client to ascertain all specific requirements are met. Once the canvas (Gown) has been custom made, I proceed to embellish.
I have incorporated precious stones and hand embroidery to suit, and often have been requested to incorporate old relics/heirloom pieces of old jewelry or lace from heritage wedding gowns. I do my best to facilitate all of the requirements.
Most of my designs are adjustable to suit other occasions.
One of my signature aspects of my wedding gowns is a Rose Quartz somewhere embedded into the gown, being the stone of Love.

This gorgeous bride only months before their wedding had a baby, I used Bamboo for her gown which allows for a woman’s size to fluctuate.
