In honor of Mother’s Day this week, we’ve posted some pics of the ladies that share that big day with the Brides (and grooms)- our Moms. You always hear Brides say that it’s the biggest day of their lives, but often times it’s the biggest day of theirs too.

I am going to brag on two of my upcoming brides today. These best friends who met as roommates at Brown University immediately knew they would be life long business partners. Nedenia had a strong passion for design and Stephanie had the drive to take the business side and run with it. Not only that, but they are BOTH getting married this year, and we get to work with two dream brides! And yes, they are designing their own dresses as well as their bridesmaids dresses so the debut of their bridal line naturally makes sense.
Their line, DEE HUTTON is a made-to-order fashion line whose modern take on couture allows you to customize separates, cocktail dresses, and evening gowns by specifying color, fabric, trim, and embellishments. And, they just launched their first bridal collection last week.
I’m obsessing over the shorty with the python straps, I mean! Employing clean, modern lines, luxe silks and french lace, the collection features everything from classic gowns with yards of train to sexy party dresses and sleek separates. DEE HUTTON Bridal offers custom made to order, allowing clients to choose color, fabric and fit variations. Couture creations are also offered, allowing the client to collaborate on an exclusive, highly personal made to measure creation.
This is a game changer for brides, as made to order DEE HUTTON Bridal takes only one month from order to delivery, instead of the typical 6 month lead time of many other houses, allowing brides with less time, more options. DEE HUTTON is available only by trunk shows nationwide and by appointment in their Union Square showroom, thus exclusivity is guaranteed. Everything is produced in New York City. Their regular line is also fantastic for engagement parties and rehearsal dinners!
We had a lovely day at the Charleston Style and Design Magazine’s Spring Bridal shoot, for which we did the floral design. We worked with the talented Evan Laettner photography and Alex Munzel of Alexandra Styles on the fashion. The gorgeous backdrop is one of our favorite little spots for weddings- The Governor Thomas Bennett House.
