How did you know your dress was 'the one'?Â
I tried on many beautiful gowns, but when I slipped into the Mira Zwillinger dress, I instantly felt like myself — just the most elevated version. It was effortless, romantic, and delicate in a way that matched exactly how I wanted to feel on the day. I didn’t have to overthink it; I just couldn’t imagine walking down the aisle in anything else.
How did you start planning your wedding? What were the first steps?Â
The most important thing to me was finding a gown that felt timeless but still had a touch of magic. I wanted something that wouldn’t just look beautiful in photos years from now, but that also captured the emotion of the day — light, romantic, and dreamy. Comfort mattered too, because I wanted to be able to move, dance, and really be present without ever feeling restricted.
What did you feel when you tried on your custom gown for the first time?
When I tried on my gown for the first time in my exact measurements, it was honestly surreal. It felt like it
had been made just for me — every detail fell perfectly into place. Instead of thinking about the dress, I could just feel the moment, and that’s when I realized how special it was. It gave me this quiet confidence, like I was completely ready to walk into one of the biggest days of my life.
What’s one thing you learned during the process of finding your gown — that you’d love future brides to know?
One thing I’d love future brides to know when searching for the dress is don’t save your favorite gown for
last! I had my Mira dress picked out online months before, but I booked that appointment at the very end,
thinking it would make the experience more special. Instead, it just left me confused while I tried on other
dresses that were never really going to compare.
The second I finally put on the Mira gown, it was the easiest yes—I wish I had started there, then could still enjoy the other appointments as part of the experience, but knowing I had already found an absolutely perfect dress
What are 3 tips you’d give to any bride planning her big day?Â
- Trust your instincts — whether it’s the dress, the flowers, or the music, go with what feels like you instead of what you think you ‘should’ do.
- Don’t overpack your day — leave breathing room so you can actually soak in the little moments, because they’re the ones you’ll remember most.
- Enjoy the process — planning can feel overwhelming, but it’s such a unique chapter of your life. Try to find joy in it, even in the small decisions, and make it a fun activity for you and your fiancé to do together.
In what way did the matching accessories (e.g. matching veil, gloves) bring yourbridal vision to life alongside your gown?
I chose a very simple blusher veil, whichI wore over my face walking in to the ceremony so my groom could lift it when I reached the end of the aisle. It was such a classic, romantic moment. The simplicity of the veil meant you could see the corset’s beautiful details through the fabric, so the focus was still on the dress. Together they created the balance I was looking for—timeless and meaningful, without taking away from the gown itself
Looking back, is there one mistake you made during the planning process — and what would you recommend future brides to avoid?
Looking back, one mistake I made was trying to do and decide on everything at once. It’s so easy to get overwhelmed by all the details and options. My advice to future brides would be to take things step by step, focus on what really matters to you and your partner, and let go of the rest. Everything will come together and your vendors/planner will make sure nothing is overlooked. Trust them and the process!
