From Russia with love

Miles away on a gorgeous day surrounded by Russian countryside, a young bride prepared to wed...

Julia contacted me about making her a Swan Queen lace & silk robe with a custom sash color, and once I saw her lovely wedding photos by Marina Muravnik , I was more than thrilled to see how stunning she looked on her day. 



 The bright, vivid colors Julia chose contrasted beautifully with the natural, rustic backdrop of the horse ranch they explored. Julia wore our Swan Queen lace & silk robe lined in off-white while getting ready. The bold royal blue of her birdcage veil and matching sash added the perfect pop of color against Julia's fair complexion. She added the bold sash to add a flair of her own personality--which makes us so happy to hear from our brides because we love customizing! 

Since all our pieces are made in house in our Florida design studio we are able to spend the proper amount of time and effort collaborating with our brides and creating something truly one-of-a-kind!


Whether in hot air balloons, on horseback, or out on the water, Julia and her groom embodied a real life Russian fairy tale romance. Pretty florals surrounded the couple and their guests, and antique accent pieces truly set the mood for this sweet ceremony.

I was so excited to receive Julia's request for a getting ready robe because it's really very gratifying to make something special for someone, no matter where they are in the world. She was so sweet and just a delight to work with!


Happy new year!


We have had an amazing 2013 and could not be more thankful for all of our amazing brides, fans and friends all over the world! Looking forward to an amazing 2014!

Featured in Brides Magazine!


I'm very excited to share that last week I learned that a lovely bride wearing our Swan Queen Lace & Silk robe was featured in the current issue of Brides magazine! It's such a delight to have Catherine and Brian's wedding photographed by Shawn Connell for Christian Oth Studio featured on the real wedding section of Brides magazine October/November 2013 edition.


By coincidence, my bride-to-be sister was flipping through Brides magazine in search for ideas for her upcoming wedding, when she came across the real weddings section featuring Catherine wearing our getting ready bridal robe! We love how elegant and effortless beautiful she looked in her wedding day!

Brides magazine is an excellent resource for planning a gorgeous wedding, and they always feature the most inspiring weddings and fashion, so I was more than thrilled to have one of my handmade pieces featured. Brides revel in having their wedding vision become a reality, and by reflecting pieces real brides wear and cherish, Brides magazine has truly captured the honor and joy I put into everything I create. 

 Thank you Brides magazine!




More details coming soon!

A winter wedding featured on Style me pretty


With the arrival of the cool winter weather, this wedding-planner bride embraced the changing of seasons, and the snowy Colorado surroundings, to illuminate the serene mood of this gorgeous wintry wedding.

All captured by the talented Laura Murray, this wintertime wedding beautifully emulated a bright, romantic warmth even the first snow couldn't mute.

From the natural landscape to the beauty and elegance of the bride: I love all the details and the unique styling of this winter wedding! Wearing a custom made Swan Queen robe lined in ivory silk chiffon and delicate chantilly lace truly started the morning off right by adding an air of calm and grace to the bride's special day.

The Odette French Lace & Silk Bridal Robe


Getting-ready for the big day can be one of the most exciting and emotional times for a bride. Inspired by my own wedding, lace and florals,
 I designed The Odette French Lace and Silk Bridal Robe to be a special heirloom...a memory in itself, of the lush elegance a bride embraces on her wedding day.

Made one by one, this handmade Bridal Robe makes a stunning getting-ready look, and is a delicate reminder of your special day long after the vows have been made...

Handmade from French Lace with a nude silk-chiffon lining, bell flared sleeves, high neck, scalloped neckline and completed with a silk sash. This kimono - robe will set the mood from the time you wake up, to the moment you step into your wedding dress. Perfect for a bride while gets ready, as a luxe wedding day jacket/cover up or during her honeymoon. It can also be lined in other colors like off-white, blush, baby blue, or come unlined.

Samantha is the perfect robe to wear while you're getting ready with your girls to walk down the aisle. There is nothing like throwing on an amazing silk robe! 

Made of luxurious 100% silk charmeuse and handmade with couture quality silk and craftsmanship.
