Pretty Petals!!!

When preparing for your Wedding Day, every detail matters including the bouquet. Today I'm  sharing some beautiful examples of how the perfect bouquet enhances your overall dream bridal look.  

Look #1 is pretty pink petals from Debi Lilly The complete look is perfect for the bride searching for a couture princess feel.  Debi's beautiful bouquet is full of texture, romance & girlie fun!  Featured gown, veil & jewelry are complete from the Victoria Sdoukos Couture Collection.  Hair & makeup provided by Beauty On Call located in Chicago. Photo Shoot venue at City View Loft in the West Loop.

Look #2 comes from Tiffany at OliverDogwood  Tiffany's bouquet has a vintage vibe & goes perfectly with this alencon lace gown.  Complete look from the Victoria Sdoukos Couture Collection. Hair from Lati at The Bridal Beauty Salon located in Wicker Park. Makeup from Elise at Leesi B Cosmetics located in Chicago.

Look #4 is for the sassy bride!!  These gorgeous tulips are from Debi Lilly.  My theme for this shoot was pinup style & this bouquet couldn't be more perfect!  Since I make custom wedding gowns, I always have a unique client base.  Lately, I've been inspired by pinup models & creating this red wedding gown was the best way for me to express what I have been dreaming about.  The complete look, gown & jewelry are from the Victoria Sdoukos Couture Collection.

Handmade Bridal Jewelry in Chicago...

Did you know that you can enjoy your Bridal Jewelry beyond your Wedding Day??  I've been accessorizing Chicago Brides for over 7 years now & one of their favorite things about the Victoria Sdoukos Couture Jewelry is the versatility the collection offers them.  My jewelry was created with the intention to be worn more than once & pieces of art that tell a story.  Many girls love wearing a piece of their wedding day for other occasions & enjoy telling others on how they have their wedding jewelry on once again.  All my jewelry is handmade in Chicago & is made with Swarovski rhinestones, crystals & crystal pearls.  What makes my collection unique & special is the ability to customize every little detail with your jewelry & using Swarovski elements to create each piece.  Is your favorite color pink?  No problem, I can a create a unique pink creation just for you!  Do you have 10 bridesmaid & 10 unique personalities with different jewelry needs.  No problem, I can create jewelry for everyone & each girl can have their own unique jewelry piece.  Let me know what your thinking & upon your consultation I will let you know what I can create for you!  Our Chicago location offers brides a very large selection of hair jewelry, earrings, bracelets,  necklaces & our signature Glam Lariat that can be worn multiple ways.  The jewelry collection is enjoyed by brides, bridesmaids, mothers of the wedding & anyone looking for a special gift or for themselves.  So whatever the occasion, creating your own jewelry is easy & fun!  The collection begins at $55 for earrings, $125 for bracelets & $250 for necklaces.

The first stitch... my first blog.

I'm excited to get started on writing my first blog. I have so many great ideas and inspirations for brides-to-be. On my blog posts, I'm going to start sharing my Behind the Scenes. What does that mean? Well, it could be anything from what new bridal jewelry designs I'm working on, to the process of sewing a bridal gown, to a snapshot of my excited brides as they come in for a fitting. I love what I do and enjoy sharing this special moment with so many wonderful Chicago brides. Stay tuned!
