Custom couture gowns just outside Nashville

Morgan’s gown, designed by Oksana Mukha from Couture by Tess Bridal, was a vision of ethereal elegance with a billowing A-line silhouette and intricate brocade embroidered with silver roses. Her off-the-shoulder sleeves brought a touch of antiquity and charm, while the modern deep V-neck bodice added a contemporary flair. The couple’s photographer, Sara Morrison with Sara Grace Photography reminisced that “nothing prepared me for the dress. I walked in and just gasped as my entire team was full of tears. It was like Jane Austen met Bridgerton and had a garden party!”
