When I found this gown I loved the romantic lace so much that the bridal shop sent me a link to www.happilygrey.com to view how Mary Lawless Lee (social media influencer) had changed and styled it for her wedding. A lot of the alterations I did were inspired by her rendition, and I included two of her photos in the pictures above.

Included with this dress is two extra yards of lace I requested and paid for separately from the designer. I knew I wouldn't be the only one wearing it whether that be for a daughter of my own or another lucky bride. It could be used in alterations, to add new details, on a veil/accessory, for a flower girls dress, or even for keepsake art.

From the designer:

We sometimes refer to our Beverly gown as "sexy Victorian". Part of the Romantique Collection, this long-sleeved lace gown appears modest at first, but with a modern silhouette and a surprise keyhole open back. Romantic floral lace exudes an approachable opulence and the unforgettable details include an illusion lace neckline, a striking cut-out open back, and a chapel length train that falls to the floor with bohemian nonchalance.

We have customized the Beverly wedding dress in multiple variations, from a high collar, to a plunging V neckline, a fully open back, to buttons down the back - feel free to ask us about the possibilities for your own dream dress. A showstopper worthy of a large affair in a grand garden, or equally at home in an intimate celebration among sun-flecked redwood trees.
