Something old, something timeless 💍 Just in: a 1940s satin gown with buttons, long sleeves, and serious Grace Kelly elegance 👑 a ruffled, all-lace beauty from the free-spirited 70s, and a romantic early 2000s Morilee with full princess drama. Vintage wedding dreams, ready to say ‘I do’ ✨ Links to both the Etsy and Squarespace site in the bio.

So talk about timing...I already updated things on the Etsy shop but to reiterate here, we will do the best we can to get orders out to customers. I'll be offering shipping with Chit Chats to the US and with UPS for Canadian orders, Poshmark orders will get packed up and wait until we can ship, and if orders aren't rushed we can hold packages until shipping is available again.
