Willowyn Gown
White wisteria represents purity and new beginnings – what could be more perfect for a wedding dress? The Willowyn gown from the Moonlight Reverie Collection features delicate blossoms embroidered on tulle with pale green vines in an A-line silhouette. A softly plunging neckline, defined waist, and illusion back details are feminine yet refined. Shown with our detachable crystal Dragonfly Wings, the look is pure Faerie Queen.
Shown here in Ivory lined in Pearl silk, the gown is also available in Lilac embroidery (as Wisteria) and may be lined in any of our silk color options.

When should I begin shopping for my gown?
We recommend beginning your search 9–12 months before your wedding to allow time for production and alterations. Because our gowns are made in-house, we are often able to accommodate shorter timelines. Simply share your wedding date, and we will guide you through the options available.
