this year has flown by with a swift velocity, and i feel like there are multitudes of moments to share. meic will be launching this fall as a non-profit organization and we have an incubator going live in about 4 weeks, i’ve visited the southern hemisphere for the first time and have spoken at some really great initiatives and met some incredible people. as well, my honey and i went on a lovely sailing trip in may and came back engaged!
tom and i are in the midst of wedding planning for early next year, and one of the things we’re trying to do is bring our friends and family into it as much as possible, through design of all of the stationary and desserts, to having a custom dress made by a good friend, taessa chorny.
after meeting to discuss concepts (i was teased a bit about the google powerpoint dress idea board i made, thank goodness she hasn’t seen the gantt chart…), we met again earlier today to chat about designs and fabrics. she presented a look and some sample fabrics that are amazing and gorgeous and i can’t wait to actually see it made.
the first draft of the design is lovely (though we’ll prob go with something a bit more a-line)
and the fabrics we’ve decided on are a lovely vintage-y silk lace for the bustier, a little ribbon of dark grey chiffon for a break and layers of swoopy chiffon for the skirt. i am in love!
Love that you’re sharing this. The dress looks gorgeous. Enjoy all this!
Thanks Amrita! :)
