Real Bride Ashley-Wedding Photos of Ashley and Beth

The Design

It was such a pleasure working with real bride Ashley on her custom-made bridal top, bridal pants, and bridal cape.

Since the lace was such a big part of this design, we spent some time searching for the perfect one. It’s a modern organic floral embroidery on tulle fabric from French Lace supplier, Imperial Lace.

We chose shiny ivory satin for the pants with a champagne tuxedo stripe and waistband. We also added pockets!

The matching cape was inspired by celebrity bride Solange’s wedding cape. My favorite part of the design is the last-minute lace applique we added to the inside of the cape!

The buttons down the back and the bustier-style bodice make this wedding top distinctive.

Wedding Day

Ashley and Beth got married on October 20, 2020, at the Dallas Heritage Village at Old City Park.

Dallas Heritage Village is home to the largest and finest collection of 19th-century pioneer and Victorian homes and commercial buildings in Texas.

They were married in front of their masked friends and family during the 2020 pandemic.

Day 54 Quarantine Life

54 days to me seems like one long week of facemasks and hulu. As of today, I have made 284 masks, with of those 60 being donated.

20 of which are being donated tomorrow to the Austin Disaster Relief Network.

As I send these off tomorrow, I feel as though I can go back to couture sewing with open orders because I have no more face mask orders currently. Stores like Old Navy and Target have started to sell them, so people are not desperately fleeing to Etsy (US small business shops) anymore.

More about Face Masks, Quarantine continues

Well, I thought the face masks were only going to be needed for our health heroes on the frontlines, but after an announcement from the CDA that we are all now recommended to wear them when headed out because it now can travel through air particles, I have made them available for friends/family first, and then recently have listed on my other Etsy here.

More pics from Treasure Coast Medical Center in Florida. They love their new batch of face masks! Adding a little cuteness to this pandemic.
