Her mom’s ’70s gown—but make it short, snatched, and completely Haley. 🤍 She honored the tradition in the fabric while making the style entirely her own.

And that’s how you serve tradition with a twist. ✨

This is a no judgement zone you guys.

From her mom’s gown to completely Elysia’s. 🤍✨

What started with a little uncertainty turned into a vintage restoration full of personality, tradition, and so much love. Seeing Elysia fall in love with this dress was the sweetest part. 🥹

She may not be able to fix every problem in your life…but if the problem is your wedding dress? Consider it handled. ✂️🤍

From the front: classic bride. From the back: pure Maura. 🖤

She came to us with a vision—keep the front clean, white, and traditional, then bring all the drama with a custom black lace train. After plenty of creative collaboration, lace arranging, and pinning sessions with Maura, her mom, and her sister, we brought that vision to life.

It may not be for everyone—but it was perfectly, unapologetically HER.

Now that’s what we call a Before and AFTA ✨

The right undergarments can completely transform the way your wedding gown fits! They create a smooth foundation, provide support in all the right places, and help your dress sit exactly as it was designed to. The perfect fit starts underneath. ✨

Three generations. Three dresses. And for a triplet… we’d say that feels pretty fitting. 🤍✨

Grandma’s timeless gown, Mom’s dress with a little extra ✨drama✨, and Emily’s own wedding gown—all part of one very special weekend.

So many memories, so much history, and a little AFTA magic.

And that’s how we served tradition with a twist. 🤍
