Weekend Weddings

Congratulations to Alisha and Dustin!

I've been working with Alisha and her bridal party since before the store opened. Alisha has become a good friend and will make a beautiful bride tomorrow. She wore two beautiful gowns, one for the ceremony and then another surprise gown for the reception. I helped her with both the fit and design of both. We changed the sash around the bodice to the first gown, added more appliques and beading to the skirt, included extra fluff to the pick-ups, and incorporated a lace up back. The results were stunning.

When I moved from my in-home studio to the storefront and included Vows Tuxedo, Alisha and her fiance came here for their tuxedos as well.

I've had a wonderful time getting to know Alisha and her family as they prepare for this special day. Congratulations!

I also worked on a custom design for another October bride, Anna. Her gown is a beautiful dark ivory slipper satin. The gown is ruched at the bodice with beaded appliques and a narrow A-line skirt. Anna was married under an oak tree on family land. It was a beautiful day out on Saturday and a perfect day for outdoor weddings.

Congratulations, Anna!

Weekend Weddings

We have had a busy tuxedo week doing everything from renting, selling, and last minute ordering of tuxedos. This weekend we have worked with three different wedding parties on their mens' attire. Tiffany called several weeks ago to rent a tuxedo and pieces for the men in her party without uniforms. Another couple of guys were renting tuxedos and then driving to the destination wedding.

Cade and his party rented entirely from Vows Tuxedo. His bride, Sheena, and I have been working for several months on the alterations of her gown and the creation of her beautiful veil. When we opened Vows Tuxedo this past summer, she brought Cade in to look for tuxedos. I have had such pleasure getting to know this wonderful couple and their families. Congratulations, Mr. and Mrs. Jones!

Wedding Gown Preservation

We love working with brides as they're preparing for their big day. In the begin, our services stopped after the wedding. Now, we offer a couple of different services for the clean-up and preserving of that day.

Gown Preservations start at $150 and include the open-window preservation with carry case. The price includes the cleaning and basic preservation with the option to preserve your accessories as well. We've just recently received our latest shipment of preservations for some of our summer brides.

We also co-host The Wedding Salvage Sale every two months for brides to be given the chance to get together with other recent brides and sell their gently-used wedding supplies to the upcoming brides to be. Our next sale will be held October 31st. Call for more information or to reserve a seller's spot!

Weekend Weddings

Hayley Lauren Couture and Vows Tuxedo worked with a couple of different wedding parties preparing for this weekend.

Lauren was a bridesmaid when we first met and came back for help altering her wedding gown and several pieces in her wedding party. It was a wonderful surprise to see her back and dressed in white this time. She's getting married this weekend in a gorgeous gown on the beach!

Chuck and Leigh are also saying their vows this weekend. Chuck and his guys picked up their tuxedos last night and all looked so handsome! After coming to register the tuxedos, Leigh also brought her wedding gown for alterations and steaming. Congratulations to them both!

Fred Astaire Showcase

Saturday evening, the local Dancing with the Stars competitors debuted their dancing skills at the Fred Astaire Showcase at Leon High School. HLCouture is proud to be sponsoring Molly Kellogg for the competition.

Since I won't be able to attend the Oxygen Ball, I had the opportunity to see her perform this weekend. She, and her rivals, did an excellent job! It was fun to see all of their hardwork come together.

Local Dancing with the Stars

Molly's costume for the Local Dancing with the Stars competition is finished. She doesn't compete until October 17th, but this Saturday she will debut her costume and dance skills at a showcase held at Leon High School. Having picked up her dress today, she'll have just enough time to run a dress rehearsal before the big show on Saturday. I am thrilled to be given the opportunity to sponsor Molly and can't wait for Saturday night.
