We
are excited to have an extensive selection of fine silks
and laces in the salon for custom bridal designs. From
silk chiffons hand embellished with crystals and pearls
to hand woven doupioni silk, we are always adding to our
collection of fine fabrics. Our trims include Alencon,
Venice and English net laces as well as Swarovski crystal
borders.
Our fabrics and laces are available for purchase by brides
wishing to create their own heirloom. We are also able
to special order fabrics for bridesmaids and mothers and
can accommodate a bride wishing to wear a color other
than the traditional white or ivory.
