Querida

With an awe-inspiring view of Lisbon, the historic Pestana Palace made for the ideal surroundings to shoot our Alegria Couture Collection. After all, this collection draws inspiration from the alluring and rich culture of Portugal and portrays a vision of Latin Royalty – complete with delicate embroidery and lavishly long trains.

Alegria, our latest couture collection, was created with a special moment in mind. That is, the moment a bride glides down the aisle and imbues the room with her iridescent glow: her happiness. Although her charm is all her own, a dress from the Alegria collection will only maximize her regal allure.

In addition to a flawless fit, a wedding dress designed by a couture atelier showcases hours of craftsmanship, luxurious fabrics, and intricate details.

Each dress in our Couture collections is designed to each bride’s exact measurements. Each and every premium European fabric we use, each embroidery, button and stitch our seamstresses make, conforms with the unparalleled standards we have introduced to the bridal industry. Thread after thread, bead after bead, a perfect form is crafted to provide a magical look for our princess brides.
