Gabrielle discovered her dream gown during Bridal Fashion Week while previewing the Spring 2026 collection. Although she connected with several designs, nothing felt completely certain until a final stop back at the showroom with her mother before heading to the airport.

As they talked through ideas, head designer Sharron overheard the conversation and asked to see a photo of the church where the wedding would take place. In that moment, everything changed. Inspired by the venue, he began envisioning what would become Gabrielle’s custom gown — evolving from the Midnight silhouette into a breathtaking design featuring new lace, a dramatic high-neck long-sleeve overlay, and a blush tulle rosette brooch. Gabrielle described the gown as feeling completely fairytale-like.

After finalizing the design, Gabrielle and her mother rushed to leave for their flight, believing they had missed the chance to say goodbye. Moments later, they received a call asking them to return. Waiting for them was Sharron, holding the signed sketch of the custom gown — a deeply personal and unforgettable moment that made the experience feel even more magical.
