CUSTOM BRIDAL

I never felt pressured to make a certain decision - the end goal was to just make it “me” and choose what was in my heart. For anyone who knows me, knows I’m overtly analytical - I want all the answers and possibilities before I make a decision, and this process was anything but that. I am seriously amazed by Ashley’s ability to quell any nerve or fear I felt throughout the process and constantly remind me, that is’ just about me. It has truly been one of the biggest joys to work with Ashley to create this, to get to bring friends and family together, and seriously just have so much fun.

THE STUDIO

I felt listened to. We took a simple idea to pay homage to my Italian and British heritages and turned it into something that is nostalgic yet modern at the same time. From completing a mood board all the way through final fitting, my input and ideas were not only asked for but encouraged.
