When you buy a Celia Grace gown you are not only buying a gorgeous dress, but you are helping those in need!

{STYLED SHOOT} SIMPLY BRIDAL: Ethereal Woodland Bridal Editorial Featuring Lindee Daniel Gowns

We absolutely love Lindee Daniel. Not only is she the sweetest ever, but her dresses are fantastic. These dresses are made with vegan fabrics using exquisite and exclusive wild and peace (cruelty-free) silks, organic cottons and other natural fabrics and dyed from natural color of the fiber dyes or other natural dyeing processes. These handmade gowns are so unique and different from any other bridal designer we have ever seen and we just love them. Especially that red gown. When Lindee agreed to do a POP-Up Shop with us we knew we had to do a bridal editorial featuring her gowns so we contacted Mackensey Alexander about photographing these magical and ethereal gowns. Marie Bramlett of Wicked Lulu did hair + makeup for our gorgeous models and we were lucky to have Custard Boutique lend us some funky and awesome jewelry and accessories to compliment these incredible gowns. We hope to someday soon have Lindee Daniel's gowns back in our shop!!! Thank you Lindee!!

SIMPLY INSPIRATION: Pacific Northwest + {Celia Grace Pop Up Shop}

While I'm more of an East-coast girl (This is Adrienna by the way, I know Nicole is a Western girl at heart!) I really love the feel of the Pacific North West. The mountains, the trees, the lakes; It's all so different then where I come from (Ohio). Seeing these Celia Grace gowns really inspires me to want to get married on a huge lake, with greenery all around. With a succulent bouquet of course!

POP UP SHOP: Celia Grace

Sustainable gowns are such an important part of Ivory and Beau, and when we found Celia Grace, we knew we had to bring their dresses to Savannah. Her gowns will be here one week only, so make sure to book your appointment today in order to see them! March has been so busy around here, and without an appointment we can't guarantee you will be able to try anything on.

The Designer:  Celia Grace was founded by Marcie Muehlke when she couldn't find a gown that matched her values of human rights. Head designer Alix Kivlin shares these same values, and she has traveled the world meeting with sustainable and craft producers.

The Collection: The goal of the Celia Grace collection is to provide brides with wedding gowns that match their values of human rights, environment sustainability, and empowering women. Their gowns are made by women’s cooperatives, and only use handmade, eco silks. Most of their fabrics are produced on traditional wooden looms, so their fabrics are unique to them.

Price Range: $1200-$4000

Pop Up Shop Dates: March 18th - 29th
