Gretchen and Adam's Wedding - March 20th, 2011

It is always exciting to have the opportunity to help out friends of mine. When Gretchen and Adam set their wedding date, I knew this would be a fabulous wedding. The couple are both very hands on people and Gretchen is a highly talented make up artist. She spent a lot of time working on the small details of her wedding and the turn out was amazing.

Their wedding was 40's themed and Gretchen came to me with a beautiful beaded second hand sheath dress she had held on to for years. She wanted to give it an extra punch and wanted it to be full length and have lots of drama at the bottom. We went to the fabric store together and choose atleast 6 different fabrics that picked up all the tan and off white coloring of the beading in the dress. Each fabric was a different weight, sheerness, and texture to give a very ornate unique look. The end product was the PERFECT dress for Gretchen. She paired it with an amazing handmade hair piece and some shoes that she decorated with little flowers to match.

Congrats Gretchen and Adam!!!
