Pretty in Pink! The Perfect POP of Color...

Ready to see one of the yummiest weddings of all time?

We never knew a pop of pink could be so perfect!

BRIDE: Margaret Dunshee

Our bride, Margaret, wore a custom gown by designer Eva Lendel. The finishing touches were perfected by the Emily Hart alterations department. From the classic bow to the modern neckline, we are LOVING this chic gown.

Her bridesmaids were given creative freedom when it came to their wedding day attire. Make it pink, make it cute- those were the guidelines! If you were waiting for a sign to jump on this trend and incorporate vibrant colors into your wedding design… THIS is it.

Newly Engaged? Here's what to do first...

Step 1: Protect the Ring

That GOR-GEOUS new sparkler on your finger? You’re going to need insurance to protect that pretty little investment!! So add a phone call to your insurance provider to the tippy top of your to do list.

Step 2: Time to crunch the numbers!

You’ve got the ring, and you’ve likely got some exciting ideas for wedding day… but what about the budget? It’s probably no surprise to you that weddings take a lot of planning, and the financial planning is just as important! Before you head out to shop for your dress, decide where you’d like to stay budget wise and we’ll help you keep that goal! (Bonus tip: Don’t forget to factor in taxes!)

Step 3: Don’t wait too long to shop!

Believe it or not, it’s typical for it to take at least 6-9 months for our production team to create a wedding dress- these days even longer! So to have enough time to shop, say yes, wait for the dress, and then complete alterations all before wedding day - we highly recommend purchasing your wedding dress 12+ months before wedding day! Doing so helps us make sure that you have the best dress options, avoid rush fees, and of course minimize your stress :)

Celebrating a shorter engagement? Don’t worry!! We have options for you, too! But we do recommend getting a move on finding your dress as soon as possible! So book your appointment ASAP & our stylists can discuss the best options for your timeline.

Step 4: Start researching to find your style

Spend some time on Pinterest or Instagram, or treat yourself to a bridal magazine or five and do some visual research before you start your appointments! There’s a million styles and ways to wear a wedding dress, so we recommend looking around and seeing what you’re drawn to. Any pictures you fall in love can help your stylist get a feel for your vision!

You are going to be GORGEOUS, bride. Let’s find the one!

Meet the Team: Molly Ann

We are so excited to introduce you to another member of our fabulous team! And this one is extra special because she is a recent bride herself! Meet Molly Ann. She said “I do” to her sweet husband, Connor, earlier this summer & WOW are their photos dreamy (keep scrolling for proof). Molly is a major fashionista & she will have any bride looking runway ready on wedding day.

Job Description: Bridal Consultant & Executive Assistant

About Me: I am a fashion design & merchandising major from University of Missouri. I absolutely love the bridal industry, and am proud to have over 5 years of experience in this field. During my college years, I spent time in New York interning for Vera Wang - an experience I’ll never forget! As for my personal life, I walked down the aisle this past May in a custom Emily Hart gown. Best. Day. Ever! My husband, Connor, and I just added a new member to our family, a handsome cockapoo pup named Louie! We just love him!

Hobbies: I love watching documentaries, but the highlight of my day is playing with my pup, Louie!

Favorite KC Restaurant: K Macho is my jam.

First Dance Song: “I get to love you” by Ruell

Current Bridal Trend Obsession: I am loving 3D floral lace appliques! They’re delicate, modern, and simply gorgeous.

Wedding Day Advice: Take it all in! The day goes by so quickly and you’ll want to remember all the pretty little details. I would also recommend a videographer. I booked one very last minute and it was the best decision I ever made (aside from marrying my husband!)
