My lovely customer Emily sent photos from her wedding wearing the custom dress and veil I made her a while back. Styled after the wedding dress Marilyn Monroe wore to her wedding to Arthur Miller
I'm so happy with how the dress came out and honored to have been a little part of her special day. Congratulations Emily and Sam!
