A Scarlett beauty coming together! ❤️

Custom gowns are something I love creating, let's make some magic!

When your bride wants to add brightly colored lace to her mother's dress, but wants to keep the original lace. Of course we can do that! We hand colored her mom's original lace in the color palette of the wedding to create a bright punch of fun to the revamped gown!

Oh hey, one of those super long vulnerable posts you can't help but read....

I need to share something personal that’s been in the works.
It has been 10+ years of working (honestly, overworking) in this field and the last year or so has come with some pretty significant life changes. After some hard deliberation I’ve come to the hard decision to have a necessary surgery on my dominant hand, and thus take a step back from altering wedding gowns for a bit.

This past year especially has made me realize how much I’ve been pouring from an empty cup. The long hours, the physical demands, the emotional energy...it’s all added up. My body and mind are both asking for rest, and I’m finally listening.

This work has been a huge part of my life for over a decade. I’ve met the most amazing people and have been lucky enough to be part of so many special wedding journeys. I’m incredibly grateful. Right now though, I need to hit pause, focus on my health, and give myself space to rest and reset.

If you’ve messaged me recently and haven’t heard back, please know it’s not personal...I’ve just been navigating a lot behind the scenes. I appreciate your patience and understanding more than I can say.

(I'm not canceling on any current clients. No worries!)

Thank you for being part of this journey. I’m not sure what this business will look like in the future, just that I need to be kinder to myself. 💛
With love,
Heather
