Tera came wedding dress shopping in April 2014 at our then-Phoenix bridal store (we have since relocated to Tempe, AZ). She thought she wanted a ruffed ballgown. Her fiancé Jon had seen photos of a ruffled ballgown wedding dress from Allure bridals that we carried and loved it. She knew she wanted a classic shape but with embellishment all over, simple yet with “stuff”. Ultimately, she fell in love with a fitted lace Justin Alexander lace trumpet wedding dress.
Tera and Jon were married November 9th, 2014 at The Duce in downtown Phoenix. It’s a cool venue that features an outdoor courtyard, a retail store, ice cream stand, boxing ring and more. It’s a bit industrial looking with wood accents for warmth. We recommend checking it out if you want a non-traditional wedding venue in downtown Phoenix! They have also been featured on Diners, Drive-ins and Dives.
Tera worked with stylist Stephanie and chose a layered Justin Alexander fitted lace wedding gown with all over lace appliques and handbeaded crystal accents. It fit her perfectly, so she purchased her wedding gown right off the rack! She added a one tier sparkle edge veil, also from Strut. She wasn’t sure what kind of wedding dress she was looking for, but she knows what she likes when she sees it.
Tera and Jon chose gray and purple accents. Their photos are by K. Welty Photography. Thanks so much for sharing, and best wishes to you both!
