Lindsay transformed dresses from her mother and her beloved Granny, so she could spend her wedding day wrapped in two generations of love.
The buttons down the back were what made Jamie fall in love with her wedding dress, so we kept them front and center in her new robe and nightgown.
"To be able to wear a piece of my mom after 33 years of her own marriage meant the world to me," Alex told us. "I opened the box up at my bridal shower and couldn't stop crying."
For years, Shelley had only seen her grandmother's dress in black-and-white photos. Only when the dress was passed down to her did she realize it was a gorgeous pink.
"I have often wondered why I kept the dress," Donna told us. "My reason was revealed in the look on my daughter's face and the tears that followed when she unwrapped the bridal robe."
Christmas is a big deal to Pauline, so she turned her dress into a whole new holiday tradition. And she's saving her remaining fabric for the day a baby joins the family.
Her mother-in-law's wedding dress was a warm welcome to the newest member of their family when Nikki had us transform it into a christening gown for her new baby.
Ellen's dress became a bridal robe for her youngest's wedding day, but we also created something special for her three older daughters, too.
Our CEO and co-founder became one of our clients when she transformed her mother's dress into special mementos for everyone in the family.
"These pieces were very special at my wedding," Cadey says. "And everyone loved how they all came from my Mom's dress."
