We have chosen a different path for our real brides Thursday post this week as our Sample Sale is beginning this SATURDAY! We cannot wait to share some great deals and dresses with you. This year we have done things a bit differently and have asked our previous brides to consign their old gowns (if [...]
In another installment of our real brides series we take a peak at Kirsten Marchand’s special Pure Magnolia Gown. We are going to take a different approach to this particular blog post, Kirsten had sent us such a wonderful e-mail that we thought we would share her words with you. So here you go! “This [...]
Mubarak chose a grey custom dress for her wedding. It is based on the diamond back dress, but with an empire waist and floaty skirt. It took quite a bit of time and toil before we were able to dye that fabrics to this beautiful blue-grey but in the end it was worth the trouble. [...]
Claire got married in Saskatoon last July. She chose a hybrid dress, the front being a Garden Dress and the back being the Sea Shell Ball Gown. We always think it’s interesting how different brides come up with ways of mixing and matching dress elements. Claire’s pictures turned out wonderfully; we especially love this first one on [...]
Happy New Year Everyone! Now that the cookies have been eaten, the presents unwrapped, and the champagne drunk it is time for a trunk show.

We were thinking about doing a Christmas themed post, but it is just too cold for that. What we really want is to escape somewhere warm… like Mexico. The Dress: If you are going with a full length dress the Twinkle A-line is a great choice. Made of natural fibres and lined in cotton, this easy, flowing, dress will [...]
We are excited to show you some pictures of our first ‘black and white’ bride. Hanna was willing to do something a little different with her dress- adding black lace. As you can see it worked out- she looks amazing! The dress definitely still looks like a wedding gown, and we love the lace with [...]
The days are getting shorter, the air has a nip in it, and if you walk into any retail store it is apparently December 24th. The way we see it we can grumble about leaving work in the dark, or we can escape into a fuffy white wonderland of winter weddings. In favor of the latter, we [...]
We were happy to be a top 8 finalist at the Mercedes Benz Start-up competition finals that took place at Toronto Fashion Week. We showed a selection of our 2013 collection that was very well received by Toronto fashionites.

This is a classically beautiful gown with an Eco twist.

This dress is the short version of our popular Winterlace Dress. We found that many brides loved the dress, but didn’t want a long skirt and train for their outdoor venues. This short version is great for garden weddings, beach weddings, and wedding receptions. Just like the long version it is 100% cotton and very [...]
Made with an exclusive embroidered floral organza that is as multi-faceted as the bride who will wear it, this dress is the jewel of our 2013 collection.

The asymmetrical neckline makes this gown very different and striking. The delicate fabric of the skirt will move gracefully when you walk and dance. The dress is fully lined [...]
This is a short wedding dress, but it also looks beautiful with a full length skirt. It is a simple dress, but the re-embroidered lace and gorgeous textured silk make it something special. The dress has a V-neck edged in hand-appliqued lace that continues over the shoulder to the back of the dress making it [...]

We did a new photoshooting in an enchanted wood… the dresses of the new collection are unique with a strong personality. They are simple, refined and rich of small important details…look at the keyhole of the lace dress or the hand-woven corset! Soon we will post other pictures of the new gowns! Florist+Decor – Just [...]
