Just MARRIED❣️ I’m excited to share with you photos so near and dear to me. To celebrate a love and partner I truly cherish who is along for building a journey together. Matt has always been so supportive and loving, especially for my baby, Grace + Ivory. Weddings bring about many emotions let alone life happening. I’ll share more in other posts (like about my dresses!) but I just wanted to share the joy we have here and a glimpse into our special day.
xoxo, Tina

Ready for a fresh take on wedding dresses? Our collection of made-to-measure dresses is carefully curated, embodying preferences of the modern bride. Dresses are made with quality in mind, with fabrics like soft tulle, Japanese crepe, mid-weight silk satin, and fine cotton lace. With hand-beaded, hand-sewn details, every dress is one-of-a-kind.
We aim for extraordinary. We start each individual dressmaking process once an order is received and focus on providing the best customer experience. Our design stylists work with a bride from initial inquiries, to helping with purchasing, custom requests, follow-up questions, and shipping. Every dress is carefully sewn, thoroughly inspected, and lovingly hand-packaged.
By partnering directly with our dressmaker, we cut out layers of distributors and retailers to offer gorgeous dresses at a great price. Every dress is made-to-measure saving a bride on multiple fittings and alterations costs, giving her a beautiful, custom-sewn dress made just for her.
As our mission is about women helping women, a portion of every dress purchase goes to programs helping women and girls in need. We’re currently supporting Plan International’s The Girls’ Fund, which has programs around the world focusing on girls’ health, education, empowerment, and community involvement. Grace + Ivory supports Plan’s belief that gender equality is central to achieving long-term change.
We hope you support our mission. Bridal Done Differently.
