A Word from the Designer
From my earliest bridal daydreams, I envisioned my wedding as an intimate, soul-connecting ceremony with a ravishing celebration, in a kick-your-heels-up and shout-from-the-rooftops style. Inspired by brilliantly romantic young loves, I dreamed of a magical wedding that would express the rhapsody of true, unbound love. In the farthest reaches of vividly imagined fantasy, my creative essence came to life in my wedding visions, and I imagined a bridal style that embodies the spirit of the mermaid and the goddess, with effortless femininity.
I soon discovered a major obstacle standing between the euphoric, free-spirited event I had in mind, and the reality for most brides: the traditional wedding dress. That stiff look that has come to dominate bridal shop appointments and endless fittings is unforgivably miserable to wear. How is a woman supposed to kick her heels up and shout from the rooftop when she is too uncomfortable to take deep breaths or even sit down? How is she supposed to feel at home beside her partner when she doesn’t feel like herself in her dress?
What I seek to share with brides everywhere is a vision of weddings that centers around a bride who feels her most amazing. She has the freedom to dance, laugh, eat, and drink in the bliss of love. She is present, buoyant, and at ease as she embarks on the adventure of a lifetime with her partner, gracefully dancing through each moment as she creates treasured forever-memories.
With an emphasis on beautifully wearable organic and luxury fabrics, I have created Wear Your Love, a collection of bridal styles that ring true to the pure joy of getting married. Leaving the clasps, buttons, zippers, and boning behind, each dress is perfectly stretchy, for a body-hugging experience of essential comfort. Each style is created with laughter, sensuality, and the magnificence of mad, soul-mate, epic love in mind.
And, because nature is my greatest inspiration and first true love, we use organic cotton and produce our dresses with zero textile waste. I truly adore all things organic: as in, “of life and “free of the artificial”, just like Wear Your Love brides, and just like true love.
