This was a great journey that I was a part of...at least the making of the 2 dresses for such a grand wedding. The video is by Capital Films DC and what a terrific job they did capturing the day.
The Reception dress is a Silk Crepe Back Satin (PREVIEW FABRICS) with beading details. Veil by Sherri Hobson Green of Legacy Beauloni
The Wedding Dress was made from a Silk Satin (from PREVIEW FABRICS) and the bodice a beaded silk (from MOOD FABRICS): Elisabeth
I had the great honor of making this young lady's Prom dress. This time around I made her wedding gown and her Grandmother and Mom's dress. These are priceless opportunities when making a custom design dress. Some of the special touches during fittings, video chatting with Mom and Grandmom during her fitting. Hand embroidering the names of her Usilla (Great Grandmother), Lois (Grandmother). Dawm (Mother), onto the left side of the gown train, which is the side with the heart. Also the embroidery is embellished with real pearls. I look forward to photos and will share them as soon as I receive them. The fabric of the dress is a silk satin from C & J textiles, 230 W 38th...
