I enjoyed visiting Lakeland’s newest Wedding Venue, Uliana Estate. I can envision so many different types of weddings happening here. It has farm vibes with an old-school red outhouse, chickens, & roosters crowing. There are many boho vibes with the large tree swing, big enough for two, and the hanging lanterns/chandeliers.
With our styled shoot, we went with a modern, minimalist look with greenery and drapery.

Loved creating this custom convertible dress for my beautiful client, Alexandra. She came up with most of the designs with the multiple sleeves, and corset style dress. I was happy to find this ethereal pale blue lace from an Etsy seller. The base of the dress is made with ivory silk charmeuse and adorned with refurbished crystals.
Hi Babes!
Meet the Roselyn gown. This gown is all about the fabric so I made the design more simple with a strapless sheath gown that has removable long bell sleeves.
I also made a matching choker, because I’m obsessed with chokers RN.
I made a separate tube dress lining from a shapewear beige jersey that is not attached to the dress.

Looks like this is straight from the Vogue catalog, does it not? Gypc Girl Photography did a superb job on capturing my Rosa gown. The Rosa gown is made from taffeta fabric and the poof sleeves and gloves are removable and can be worn separately.

The Suki Bridal Mini dress makes a perfect second dress! It can be styled easily with different looks. See how we styled it with my Barbie Ruffle Veil for one look and my Bridal Bow Hair Accessory for another option.
The Suki dress was handmade in central Florida by myself. I designed it purposely to be worn as a second dress. It is also designed with a silhouette that can be easily sized up or down. The bow spaghetti straps are cute as well as functional and adjustable. I added each pearl to the white satin dress after it was sewn with my pearl gun. The feathers on the hem are from an ostrich feather boa.
My Barbie Ruffle Veil can be purchased in the shop here. And Bridal Bow here.
Contact me for a custom-made Suki bridal mini dress.

Behind the seams
Here’s a photo of the part of the dress being draped on the mannequin. As you can see, I was already making accessories and seeing the whole vision come to life.
I make all my patterns by drafting (rulers, pencil, paper on the table) or draping on the mannequin. I end up doing a combination of both for most designs.
I strive to have my designs make you feel something and to be balanced. For example, the Olivia mini silk gown is sophisticated in style and color but has a fairy, whimsy, fun vibe.

Bride Danielle came to me with her mother’s vintage wedding gown and her own wedding dress for alterations.
She wasn’t sure what she wanted her mom’s dress turned into, but she knew she wanted it short and to wear for her rehearsal dinner dress. So I sketched a few examples and she chose one right away.

New Dress! I created the Olivia Silk Bridal mini recently after seeing how popular second looks are lately for brides. I wanted it to be timeless, vintage-inspired, luxe, but also modern, young, and hip. Drop-waists are back on-trend and so are pleats so I incorporated those. The Olivia mini gown also features a handkerchief hem and a piping detail. I paired this mini with a large velvet black removable bow as well. It just clips on at the center back.
Olivia is also fully self-lined with silk satin and fully boned.
