Where to get a Unique Northwest Gown

Every woman wants a one-of-a-kind dress for their wedding day, but often believe a custom dress is out of their budget.  Also, if you want to keep your wedding locally sourced, it can be difficult to find somewhere to get a dress made.  If you need a little help finding that perfect local gown, fret no further.

Though Myra had been creating artistic pieces and accessories since she was a child, she became inspired to create a full line to the public after planning her 9-8-7 wedding with now husband, Matt.
