I don’t paint my nails but recently I have been in awe over some of the stunning wedding day manicures I have seen lately! It got me thinking about what I would do if I was a person that painted their nails… A few weeks ago I ask Instagram what their favorite wedding nail trend was and I LOVED all the answers! Here are the ones that got the most votes and a couple of unique options as well! The No. 1 Pink Ombre So classic and clean. It doesn’t take away from a classic wedding day look and it is very reminiscent of the classic French Manicure of my prom days past! Nails as seen on www.itakeyou ..read more

So, did Covid-19 put your wedding plans on hold? We are hearing from more and more brides about their wedding dates being postponed until 2021 and they aren’t so sure what to do with their wedding gown in the meantime. Some are very nervous about keeping the dress safe until the day they get to wear their gown so we have put together some tips on how to care for your special dress until the new wedding date arrives. The first thing we want to point out is that wedding gowns are a little hardier than most people give them credit for. We keep some bridal gowns in our shop for 3 or 4 years an ..read more

Over the years we have heard many brides vocalize their dream of having that “wow back” on their wedding dress. Sometimes it is because it’s what they have envisioned, sometimes it is the desire for that dramatic photo, and sometimes it’s because they want their guests to have a gorgeous back to view. No matter what, we do believe that you should LOVE the front of your dress just as much as the back. However, for now, we will happily entertain you will some drool-worthy backs. From open back wedding gowns to trains that make you say “woah” and more. Enjoy! Kenzie by Lis Simon Liam by Lis Sim ..read more

With the cooler temps and the upswing in fall/winter weddings we have seen jackets of all sorts on our brides! Sure fur (or faux fur) has been a classic for as long as ladies have put on a fancy dress in the winter, it is a classic. We are still all about the fur (or faux) stole or jacket, BUT, we are LOVING the denim, leather, fringe, and cardigans. This informal look paired with the most formal gown is just what we needed in our lives this winter season!

Alex found her dream dress with us in the early part of 2019. She wanted something elegant and simple with some lace detail and a higher neckline for her fall wedding. After creating this beautiful gown there was no doubt that it was what she wanted to wear on her wedding day! We just love Alex and Adam’s love story: Our love story began far away from both of our homes, in an elevator! Adam had moved from Maryland to Omaha, Nebraska to pursue his career in finance and I was starting a second year pharmacy residency in oncology at Nebraska Medicine. We quickly made small talk on our short eleva ..read more
