Juané has an incredibly fun and playful personality and she wanted her dress to reflect that. She tied the knot barefoot and in celebration, wanted to dance the night away. She also wanted her dress to be an extension of herself – not limiting her movements in any way. She came to me with a couple of ideas – pictures that appealed to her sense of style or reflected something about her. Ultimately it was her personality that inspired this dreamy dress – layers of soft white chiffon flowing from her waist, with beautiful embroidered detail on her decolletage, and flimsy, feminine lace sleeves. So graceful.

Every bride is different and by staying true to your own style and personality you let your beauty shine through. It’s not the dress that makes the woman, but the woman who makes the dress.
