First Bride of 2011 - BRITTANY WALKER
Brittany Walker was our first bride of 2011. She traveled all the way from Texas to our studio in Plymouth, Michigan, to have her gown custom made. Her mom, who is a Michigan resident, accompanied her to fittings, and took the photo shown here. We're waiting for Brittany to send us some of her photographers pics taken on the big day.
Brittany's gown was a classic design of a silk taffeta in a champagne color with a rouched bodice. Silver trim and tiny pearls encircled the bustline. She was beautiful.
The happy couple took their wedding vows in the Caribbean in early April.

Fit for a Princess
With the Royal Wedding behind us, there's been a lot of speculation in the fashion world about the similarity of Kate Middleton's wedding gown to that of the Grace Kelly bridal gown.
We've always thought of Princess Grace's dress as a classic, so, a few years ago we created our own version of it using silk taffeta and French Alencon lace and added a pickup to the front of the skirt and a half bow to the waist wrap. We loved the result.
It's here in our Plymouth studio to try on.
The photo at the right was taken that same year by one of my former brides, Jacquelyn W. Holling [now Jacquelyn Williams]* for an ad in The Knot magazine.
*Jacquelyn Williams currently is a free lance photographer in the Greater Los Angeles area.
