With years of experience restoring sentimental pieces, they are comfortable leaving their family wedding heirloom in our hands. Many brides ask to be surprised once the restoration or restyle is complete. Often, they are stunned by the results! It is so satisfying as a designer.”

1990 Porcelain Flower and Silk Halo

Teresa wished to repurpose her mother’s bridal headpiece into a statement hair accessory for her wedding day. Her mother’s vintage 1990 headpiece was challenging because the flowers were porcelain and fragile to deconstruct. I restyled the porcelain flowers into a collection of hairpins to be worn together or separately. The results were breathtaking! The nice thing is she can wear them again.

1985 Vintage Wreath Headpiece and Pouf Two Tier Short Veil

Most of my brides don’t love their mom’s headpiece. They know they want to wear it and are looking for expertise and direction to make it beautiful and current. What an amazing vintage transformation! It doesn’t resemble the 80s in any way. I masterfully changed it from a wreath to a back piece and a short veil to a long one. Adding crystal elements to the design made this into a breathtaking headpiece.
