SB Bride :: Julie (Why we do what we do)

A few weeks ago, I posted a photo of Julie at her final fitting in a gown that we specially designed for her with lace from her mother's gown.  Last weekend was Julie's wedding and today I received this note and a few snapshots from her.

To the talented women at Septembers Bride!




The wedding this past weekend was a complete success and best day


EVER! Thanks of course, in part to the most wonderful dress and veil!!


I'm attaching some low-quality photos that I found on facebook from


some friends and I'll show you the professional ones when I get them.


The veil was so great I didn't take it off the whole night! We even


had a bonfire from 10 - midnight and I just didn't want to take it off


-- when will I ever get the chance to wear it again? Might as well


soak it up!





I spent most of the evening answering everyone's questions about how


the dress was put together -- it was SUCH a hit!






Thanks to you two and Sherry for all of the work you put into it and


your patience with me as we figured out how to put it all together. It


was absolutely perfect.






We are going on a super extended honeymoon so I probably won't be able


to send you any more photos until november but I certainly will when


we return.






thanks again!!

Stephanie James Couture Trunk Show :: Extended!

We just received confirmation that our "mini" Trunki Show from Stephanie James Couture will be extended for a few extra days.

This will let brides who are participating in this weekend's Wedding Walk see the gowns, too!

The response to these gowns from the brides who have visited September's Bride and tried them on has been fabulous. Don't miss your chance!

A fresh look :: Brittany by Lila Couture

Here's a fun and fresh look at the Brittany gown by Lila Couture, originally posted on the Lila Couture blog.

Oh, my goodness!

Brides,  NOW is the time to come into September's Bride and find your wedding gown if you have not already!

We have received nearly a dozen gorgeous new 2011 gowns in the past few weeks.  Gowns from Maggie Sottero, Casablanca, and Angelina Couture.

Also, in order to make room for these gowns on our display floor, we have moved some other fabulous gowns to the Sale Rack and marked them at 25% or more off the regular price!

Something Old, Something New

Several months ago, Julie and her mom, Sue, came to September's Bride to meet with Tami & Sherry about restoring Sue's wedding gown for Julie to wear for her wedding.  Unfortunately, Sue's gown was unable to be restored completely.  So, we all worked together on Plan B.

Julie purchased a beautifully-constructed but very simple gown by Lila Couture.  Our seamstress, Sherry, then carefully removed lace from Sue's gown and used it to re-design and embellish the new gown.  This gave Julie her own perfect gown, mixing the modern simplicity that she desired with the tradition of wearing her Mom's lace.  She also had our veil designer attach more of her Mom's lace to a veil to make an absolutely gorgeous mantilla to wear with the gown.

Here is Julie at her final fitting.

Of course we love September!
