  • Real Garter: Jordan

    2 min read

    This custom wedding garter could qualify as our bride Jordan's something old, something new, something borrowed, and something blue! It's dusty blue satin adorned with lace from the bride's Grandmother's silk robe from her wedding day. Her Grandmother's wedding was in 1941...look at that beautiful lace!



    I loved working with Jordan's family's materials for her custom wedding garter made from her family's materials. You can't go wrong with something blue satin and lace from your grandmother. I love the color combination Jordan chose for her garter, this is an heirloom from her wedding day that she'll love forever indeed.

    For her garter we used dusty blue satin to be her "something blue," but we also used it to match the silk on her grandmother's robe. The robe silk was so vintage and worn from being over 60 years old, so we weren't able to use the silk for garter. We were able to take the lace off of the robe and then piece it together onto the garter. The contrast of her grandmother's robe lace with the new dusty blue satin looks amazing. If you want to see more of Jordan's heirloom, here are some detailed photographs that we took of her family heirloom wedding garter.

    As a special treat, we have some winter wedding day photos to share. The photos of Jordan and her mother on her wedding day are just beautiful. They were so kind and generous to share their real wedding day photos with us...
