Sally and George were married in their own backyard on a gorgeous day in late spring.  Suzanne Rossi Photography was there to capture the day.

The Custom Couture Process

Brooks Ann Camper Bridal Couture

Before I get into blogging about my newest bride, I thought I’d write a general post detailing an overview of my process and what to expect when commissioning your custom couture wedding dress. I know!  I know!  This big long post looks like a lot of work. And it is, but it is also a […]

Erin’s Wedding Day!

Erin was married on the beach in the Outer Banks of North Carolina in June. Her wedding day was fun-filled, laid-back, and incredibly beautiful. Photographer Brooke Mayo (who seems like a lot of fun herself) was there to document it all.

Heather was married on a rainy Spring day in April at the JC Raulston Arboretum in Raleigh. The event was captured beautifully by Timeless Photojournalism.

I’m still unwinding from the amazing incredible fantastic weekend I had in New Orleans for Loula’s wedding day.  We had an absolute blast.  She looked […]

Mary’s wedding day had finally arrived and Sarah Der Photography was there to shoot these amazing images! Regardless if this is your first time to my blog, or if you’ve been following along since I started writing about the creation of Margaret’s-custom-mother-of-the-bride ensemble all the way until last week’s post about her daughter Mary’s custom […]

Brooks Ann Camper Bridal Couture

  Leah’s wedding dress was the first real wedding dress that I created for someone I did not already know.  It’s funny to think of it that way, because since working with her on her dress, Leah has become one of my most treasured friends and someone I hope to always have as a part […]
