It’s going to sound profound, but sometimes taking a glance inward reveals the answers.

Just like newlyweds, you sometimes lose track of time as a creative entrepreneur.  We can't believe it's been a little over a year since Mel and Dave tied the knot!  We thought we would share some of the beautiful images from their special day as a way to celebrate their love.  No bias here... okay maybe a little... but Mel was so effortlessly charming in our Tamarisk gown! Or rather, her Tamarisk gown.

This is a post written by Gretchen.

It's easy to get caught up in our own world and get NOTHING else done!  But luckily, we have the award season to pull us from our abstraction. It'll give us the much needed inspiration, "oohs, ahhs, and what the hell were they thinking's!"


​Bridal fashion has the added fun in that we can look back at current bridal trends and see where on the red carpet they originated. This year's red carpet will have some trends that are right on point and some that will thankfully go to the wayside.  Here are our favorite trends that will grace the white carpets!

REFLECTIONS OF THE YEAR PAST & BRIDAL TRENDS OF THE FUTURE

This is a post written by Lourdes.

As I type this, I’m realizing that Christmas is one week away and the new year is only TWO WEEKS AWAY!!! Where did the year go?!  Can time slow down a bit?

Reflecting on the Year Past

This has been an adventure and a giant learning curve as we grow Edith Élan!  For as glamorous as we would like to think owning and running our own fashion design company should be, it’s not.  In fact, it’s cliché. It’s been a roller coaster of ups and downs. Stress over this. Celebrate that. Plan this. Worry about that. Design this. Forget that. Sew this. Unstitch that, and so on. Luckily, we can count on our fabulous support system of friends and family to keep us sane and motivated.

So, to all of you wonderful people:  THANK YOU!!! (a million times over)


To G:  Thanks partner!  I wouldn’t have chosen anybody else to make this dream come true with me.  We love and fight like sisters, but that’s what makes us awesome. #loveyou #donteverchange #phraseswritteninhighschoolyearbooks #butimeanit #yesididjusthashtaginablog


This coming year will be a year of learning for us as well.  And another year of growth. While we don’t know exactly what it will hold, there are a few things we do know.  We know we already have our favorite and not-so-favorite bridal trends. So without further ado, here they are.
