If you are one of these romantics who have ever dreamed of being a princess, and have long been fascinated with stories of medieval knights and ladies, or have fantasized of sharing the adventures of timeless classics such as "The Lord of the Rings", "Wheel of Time" or "Narnia", then you will probably like this website!

Medieval Bridal Fashions  is the place where all your wedding dreams can come true!

I specialize in unique handmade  gowns and jewelry to match.  The many inspirations behind my bridal designs can be found in historical periods such as the Renaissance, Medieval and Gothic period, Victorian era, fantasy, fairytale and Celtic legends, or the nature : ivy leaves, flowers, vines, butterflies, dragonflies, waves etc.

All my gowns are custom made and incorporate corsets into their dramatic design. They are made with finest materials and with comfort in mind. They will give you the hourglass shape you have always dreamed of and will make you feel and look  your best on your wedding day. I am a big believer in color, so many of them deviate from the common tradition of the white gown and are instead made in different breathtaking colors, to express their wearer's unique individuality and to compliment her coloring.

I also create a wide range of matching accessories : Headpieces, Circlets, Tiaras, adorable Princess Crowns, Necklaces, Bracelets and more!  Completely handcrafter in Sterling Silver and semi-precious stones, they would be the perfect adornment to indulge your inner Princess and a treasured heirloom to be enjoyed for many years.  Custom design can also be created for you, if you do not see the piece of your dreams in our collection.  Whether you are planning a Celtic, Elven, Medieval, themed, or gothic, or alternative wedding, or are looking for that unique accessory to wear with your contemporary gown, Medieval Bridal Fashions can work with you to bring your vision to reality

I hope you enjoy your visit!

Circlet or Tiara?  or maybe a Crown?

There are a few factors  to consider when selecting the type of the headpiece that you will be wearing at your wedding:

Circlets:   All headpieces named "circlets" in my collection have open backs and are held in place with fully adjustable extension chains. The advantage of this headpiece design is that it will work with any hairstyle.  All you have to do is to adjust the extension chain, and voila! a perfect fit each time. At the same time they offer the flexibility to be worn across the forehead, or higher up, above the hairline

Crowns:  The pieces described as "crown", are full-circle, closed back headpieces. Their circumference is set and cannot be adjusted.  Once the crown is made, it can be worn in only one way.  These headpiece usually work best if you wear your hair long and loose. Their ornate backs provide a stunning accent from the back.

Tiaras:  The tiaras usually look best with a hairstyle that provides the hair with some height behind the tiara, thus providing a background for the tiara to be stand out.  High up-do, or half-up half-down hairstyles look best with taller tiaras. The lower-height tiaras work well with short hairstyles.

Princess Crowns:  The same things that were said above about the tiaras can be said about the princess crowns.  In addition, you can wear the princess crown slightly tilted and off-center to provide for a fun and flirty look.

Headbands :   A headband will look great with any hairstyle and will work exceptionally well with short hair. Depending on the headband you choose, you may be able to wear it after the wedding to a formal event or a night-out.
