The Process!​​​​​​​​
If you're interested in a Custom Wedding gown, here is a little glimpse into the first step of the process:​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
Consultation and Sketch Review​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
Where we meet for the first time to discuss your heart’s desire for the wedding dress of your dreams. This will take approximately 45 minutes, and we suggest you come prepared with ideas, tear sheets, Pinterest boards and any other garments you are considering utilizing (if you are restoring a dress). We will talk about what you love as well as what you don’t, colors, fabrics, fit and any other details that go along with your dress. Once the designer has all of the information needed, she will execute sketches for you for the next step.​​​​​​​​
​​​​​​​​
If this is something you are interested in, visit our website to read further about the process.

Hey! It's me, Ali! I have had my head buried in wedding gowns and it's only just April! Sooooo I thought I'd pop out for a quick hello to any new friends out there! 👋​​​​​​​​
Thanks so much for following along our little feed here. I try and update things as often as I can, but I tend to allow large gaps of time to pass because, well, gosh darn it there aren't enough hours in a day. Or enough ME'S! ​​​​​​​​
We're working on changing that around here, though, and I'll have some new faces to introduce soon. 😍​​​​​​​​
Follow us on TikTok, too! I really dig making those little videos, so your input and engagement is SO, so appreciated. ​​​​​​​​
Hope you all have a great week ahead and be well, babes!​​​​​​​​

Here is one of my favorite vintage wedding gown reconstructions that I made for the The Buffalo History Museum shot by our friend Luke William Copping !​​​​​​​​
The director of the museum and friend of mine, Melissa gave me her mothers' wedding dress to reconstruct!! Now this is a part of the museums permanent collection of historical wedding gowns. How many wedding dress designers can say their work has gone down in history!?​​​​​​​​
We love working with vintage heirlooms, so if you've got one you want to update, reach out at the link in our bio! ​​​​​​​​

Happy birthday @byannadusza !!! 🎉🥂 I probably have never told you this, but from the first time we met in my class years ago I knew you were something special. You continued to show it over the years creating your own pieces, co-creating @avacollectivebflo and now, with me over the last year. 🤍 Our brides are so lucky to have you working on their gowns and I am so lucky to get to work with you day after day.
You are truly a beautiful and magnetic person with such a great sense of humor. You are so very much appreciated and loved, and I hope this next year is full of fun adventures and success for you! 🎂

Creating a custom wedding gown means making decisions that flutter YOUR body not anyone elses, especially when you can’t find what you're looking for elsewhere… and you can make it soft purple😏💜

📣This one's for ALL of my brides, I wrote a little guest blog for @upstateindieweddings about my biggest regret on my wedding day!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Don't get me wrong, our destination wedding was unbelievable, but there's something to be said about letting go of some control and letting the professionals do what they're good at!

Our gorgeous semi custom creation made it in this @upstateindieweddings winter solstice inspired Indie Shoot Out a couple months back!🌕💫

The model’s wearing the Emerson top paired with the Adley skirt! One of my favorite aspects of the semi custom collection is how it’s mix and match and how each piece can be paired with something different👏🏻🙌🏼

Is #fridayintroductions still a thing…? I’m feelin’ this fierce after our first full week back at work where we accomplished what we set out to and it’s only Friday! 🥳 We are making it a point to celebrate the little things this year. And set boundaries. Anyone else have a little PTSD from last season?! 😵‍💫
.
It’s hard when you run your own business to make space for other things in your life, but after these last two years the realization has never hit me harder. Im feeling so focused and refreshed and beyond excited about this upcoming year! Oh, Im Ali, btw! This is a shot from my #buffalowedding 10/21 in my mothers reconstructed wedding gown.
.
We put so much of ourselves into what we do, and we care so much about our clients. We create custom designed wedding gowns, reconstruct vintage gowns and alter high end wedding dresses. We also have a semi-custom collection of mix and match bridal styles with an assortment of veils in house.
.
We work with a limited number of brides each year, so if you are curious about a custom or reconstructed wedding gown - reach out today! I would love to chat with you! Follow the link in our bio to schedule a consultation!
.
Cheers to all of our wedding friendors out there who have been working hard in the trenches! I would love to hear how you’re planning to attack this year!

We get asked to add sleeves to dresses a lot. Sometimes it’s more difficult than others, depending on how wide the sleeve opening is. With @miss_chezz @lovelybriderochester @madewithlovebridal dress it worked out pretty great, through!
We think this dress should always have sleeves now! What do we all think?
