The Gown: Slim, Sculpted, and Utterly Spellbinding
Let’s talk about Jess. This slim-fitted lace masterpiece was made for a moment like Nicole’s—where every angle is kissed by sea breeze and every stitch catches the sunlight. The hand-embroidered bodice adds an almost celestial glow, while the lace hugs the figure with sculptural grace.

Like all Mira gowns, Jess began with a mannequin carved to Nicole’s exact measurements. The result? A silhouette that felt like a second skin—bespoke, intimate, and uniquely hers.

Every flower was placed by hand. Every detail told her story.

Caribbean Cool Meets Couture Charm

There’s something effortlessly chic about a wedding on a Caribbean island—and Anguilla’s Four Seasons delivered it all: soft ivory sands, turquoise water that danced in the light, and the gentle rhythm of waves setting the pace for love.

Nicole embraced the coastal energy with elegance, floating through her day like poetry in motion. The air was warm, the champagne was cold, and the vibes? Impeccably island-luxe.

The Feelings: Love, Laughter, and a Little Magic

What set this wedding apart wasn’t just the scenery—it was the emotion. There were quiet, sacred moments of connection. Laughter that echoed across the beach. And that unmistakable feeling that something extraordinary was unfolding.

Nicole radiated confidence and calm, the kind that comes from knowing you’ve found the gown and the one.

Coastal I Do’s at Their Chicest

Under a palm-framed arch, just steps from the shoreline, Nicole and her love exchanged vows in a setting that felt straight out of a dream. The ocean was their backdrop, the breeze their music, and Jess, the gown, the ultimate finishing touch.

It wasn’t just a wedding. It was an ode to personal style, natural beauty, and unforgettable elegance.

This strapless slim-fitted gown is a vision of elegance and intricate artistry. Featuring micro-beaded dangling branches that cascade gracefully across the gown, it creates a delicate and ethereal texture that shimmers beautifully with movement. The structured bodice enhances the bride’s silhouette, flowing seamlessly into a fitted skirt that flares gently at the bottom for a modern, sophisticated look. Beneath the intricate embroidery lies an inner delicate shimmer lace layer, adding a soft luminous effect that enhances the gown’s luxurious design. Adding a touch of modern romance, the gown has an additional detailed shrug with an open tulle bow back, a dramatic yet soft detail that ensures a stunning view from every angle.
