SIMPLY INSPIRATION: Rustic Chic + {VCD COLLECTION By The Cotton Bride POP-UP SHOP}

We are so beyond excited about our Pop-Up Shop series starting at the end of this February with our very first one featuring VCD Collection by The Cotton Bride!!!!!!!!!!!! So in anticipation of this, our intern, Shelby, put together an inspiration board inspired by their gown, "Charlotte." So what is a Pop-Up Shop exactly??? Well... we are super excited to announce that we are going to start bringing smaller bridal designers to Savannah for a short limited time during our Pop-Up Shops to share collections that we don't normally carry in our boutique. We are really excited to offer these exclusive dresses to brides who normally would have no way to see these collections without traveling. Our VCD Collection by The Cotton Bride will be featured at Ivory + Beau from Thursday February 27th through Monday March 3rd only!! **We will also be open on Sunday March 2nd to allow more time for brides to come and see the collection.**

So a little bit about the VCD Collection by The Cotton Bride: This airy, cool and lightweight collection by Chris Kole features gowns using only 100% natural silk, cotton and linen fabrics. Hear that?? Lightweight... summer brides out there? These dresses will be absolutely perfect for the hot Savannah heat. Also, this collection is currently only sold exclusively in their New York showroom... meaning this is REALLY exciting for us that we get to bring this collection to the south if even for just a short period of time!!!!

To make your appointment to come check out the collection click here!!! If you are wanting a Sunday appointment time please e-mail us directly by filling out our contact form here. And thank you Shelby for the inspiration!
