Dearest Heidi,

When I went to the Portico Bridal Show over a year ago and  I saw your dresses and then I saw you, it was so incredibly obvious that your dresses topped all the others. I told my Mom I didn’t want to look anywhere else, I just wanted to set up an appointment with you. But she still made me look at all the places around Birmingham, and I’m so glad she did because it made coming to your shop seem all the more special. The dress you designed for me is the prettiest piece of clothing I’ve ever seen. I mean it. You designed a dress that was 100 times prettier than what I had imagined. Every time I came to your shop it was so much fun. You really made the whole process so special for me and all the women in my family. It’s rare for someone so artistically talented as yourself to be as easy to talk to and so pretty too. You got it all, and I know your personality and talent will take you a long way in life. I can’t wait to walk down the isle in my dress. If anyone spills anything on it, they are going down. :)

Love ya,

Molly McNutt

How I missed being at the launch of The Bridal Bar – Atlanta. Everyone has told me it was FABULOUS. Mom and I were in NY during the launch, so I had to miss it. Please check out these great shots of my gowns and the “little pink dress’” that I designed for Rebecca, the owner. 

Thank you Bridal Bar Atlanta for using my gowns for display. It means the world to me! -Heidi

A letter from the bride.

It was a Tuesday in June when I finally accepted the invitation of a friend to go to a “small group” for singles through our church.  Trey did not attend the group on a regular basis but had decided to stop by that night to reconnect with some friends.  I was introduced to Trey within minutes after arriving at Olexa’s.  Little did I know, accepting that invitation would change our lives forever.

A few days later, we went on our first date.  It was the perfect date-under the stars at Caldwell park, listening to the symphony play Abba music.  We had an instant connection that we couldn’t deny.  And, on the three-month anniversary of that date, next to where he had written our names in the sand, Trey proposed.  It was surreal, after so many years of looking, wishing and praying for the “right one”, at ages 36 and 37, we had found each other.

Now, to plan the perfect wedding…

First on my list was to find the perfect dress!  It was an overwhelming task.  I started my search in Birmingham.  Then a trip to Atlanta and Dallas to try on hundreds of wedding dresses at the top bridal boutiques.  Although I found many beautiful gowns, none seemed to have all of the elements I was searching for.  My quest ended with my first meeting with Heidi Elnora.  Just like I knew Trey was “the one”, I knew this was the answer to my dress dilemma.  What could be more perfect than having my dream gown designed and created by a couture designer?  My experience working with Heidi was amazing from start to finish.  And, in the end, I had a gown more beautiful than I could have ever imagined!  It was the perfect dress!

Thanks Heidi for making me beautiful on my wedding day!

Love you lots!

So much to do….

June 17, 2009

Now that I have  heidi elnora – Atlanta up and running, it is time to re-focus and put some much needed attention on  October 17Th…THE BIG DAY!  My brides have been so sweet to continuously check in on me and on my progress. They  all ask “How are your plans coming?” I fell so bad to never have any updates. So to all of you that have been asking and worrying about me, I am OFFICIALLY planning and here are the latest updates. 

*I have finally approved the save the dates. Poor Heather at SWOOZIES. As you all know, I am very detail oriented and I just couldn’t decide on the right pantone color for the wording. I think I have made a final decision but I might still have time to change it. Just in case.

*Yesterday, I booked the flight for Mom and I to got to NY to pick out all of the fabulous fabrics for my gown(s). We are so excited about the trip. It’s time to get inspired!!!!

*My photographer and dear friend Angela Karen sent me a few pictures from our engagement party at our family farm.  She does such good work. I am thinking about just using one of these for  our engagement announcement. Any thoughts as to which one?
