Alexis Mabry's Wedding dress

Alexis came to me about 6 months ago wanting a unique wedding dress for her big day. After discussing budget and style, I came up with this design for her that I absolutely love. Going against the traditional full length gown, she opted for a 3/4 length alencon lace number. I am so happy with the way the dress turned out. Alexis is going to be beautiful in this dress on her wedding day August 15, 2009. Congratulations Alexis and can't wait to see your photos! Thank you for having Darcy Law Couture be a part of your wedding day!

Congratulations Kim on your marriage July 4th 2009!

Kim's wedding dress was completed the last week in June and I was thrilled with the way the dress and veil turned out. I will post her wedding day pictures once they are in! Her wedding day was spectacular from what she told me. A fourth of July wedding seems magical. Kim, you were such a doll to work with and you are a vision of beauty in your dress. Thank you for allowing me to be a part of your special day!

Kim's second fitting update

Kim came by Wednesday for her second and final muslin fitting. It went great and she looked beautiful...even in muslin! The next step is cutting the real fabric out and getting one last fitting in before the final details are complete. It's the countdown to the finish line...

Meeting Tory Burch yesterday at U Penn

I had a really good time yesterday meeting Tory Burch at U Penn and listening to her story. She is a very down to earth woman with a sense of humor and has a good head for business. It's interesting to hear how people get to where they are in life. I definitely learned a lot about myself by listening to her.
Through the years, I have been fortunate enough to have come face to face and shake the hands of Bill Blass, a man that embodied confidence and a humble presence that was welcoming and relaxing. Oscar de la Renta, who's stature embodies that of grace, poise, and ultimate elegance. Carolina Herrera, a woman of class and sophistication with a manor of exquisite taste. Nicole Miller, an approachable and easy going woman with an appreciation for simplicity with an edge.
Lars Nilson, Michael Volbracht, James Gallanos, and Ralph Rucci...
I am honored to have met these fabulous designers, and I hope to one day be able to meet the likes of Tom Ford, Diane von Furstenberg, Catherine Malandrino, Valentino, Jean Paul Gautier, Alexander McQueen, and on and on the list goes...
I would love to meet all of the infulential designers of yesterday, today, and tomorrow.

Kim's second dress for fitting!

As it gets closer to the 4th of July wedding date of Kim Henderson, my next fitting with her is next week. I have her second dress completed and ready for Kim to get into! This will be the final muslin
before I begin to cut the real fabric and put her wedding dress together. I look forward to seeing creating her gown and making her veil for the final touch. Look forward to seeing you next week Kim!

Wedding Wire 2009 Bride's Choice Award Winner

WeddingWire, the nation’s leading wedding technology company, just announced that Darcy Law Couture has won the 2009 Bride’s Choice Awards™!

In its inaugural year, the Bride’s Choice Awards recognizes and honors vendors from the WeddingWire Network that demonstrate excellent quality of service, responsiveness, professionalism, value of cost and flexibility. This year’s recipients represent the top three percent of WeddingWire’s vendor community, which includes over 100,000 wedding vendors from across the US. That means Darcy Law Couture is one of the very best Wedding Dress Designers.

Unlike other awards in which winners are selected by the company, the Bride’s Choice Awards are determined exclusively by recent newlyweds through surveys and reviews.

“We are excited to launch this annual award program to honor high-performing vendors based solely on the experiences of our WeddingWire community,” according to Timothy Chi, WeddingWire’s Chief Executive Officer. “This year’s recipients have set the bar high, exhibiting excellent service and expertise in the wedding industry.”

Darcy Law Couture would like to thank our past clients for speaking on our behalf and helping us win the 2009 Bride’s Choice Award!
