Nicole Bridal recently witnessed the joyous wedding day of bride Huong Tran under the romantic golden sun in California, USA. We are truly happy and proud to have been chosen by the bride to be her companion on her journey to finding her dream wedding dress – a dress that will accompany her from the sacred moment of the sacrament of marriage to the overflowing joy of the main ceremony.
Future brides, let’s all take a look at these stunning photos from the wedding of Huong Tran and Amin Nguyen!
Torn between a gentle muse or a strong-willed bride?
Those were Huong Tran’s concerns when she first connected with us.
While it may not be as vibrant as the youthful and glamorous New York, what impresses people about California, often dubbed the “golden land” for families settling in America, is its diverse and bustling culture and the influx of immigrants, primarily from Asia. Having lived in California for a long time, Huong Tran was somewhat influenced by the lively lifestyle of this “golden” state. Therefore, the bride-to-be was somewhat hesitant when choosing a wedding dress style for her big day: Should she be a gentle, traditional bride or a more individualistic version?
Being a girl who loves traditional Vietnamese culture, our bride Huong Tran spent a lot of time planning and preparing for a Vietnamese-themed wedding in the heart of California. To prepare for this event, both Huong Tran and Amin planned a trip to Vietnam to take pre-wedding photos in Da Lat wearing traditional Ao Dai, and didn’t forget to visit Nicole Bridal to design their dream wedding dress for the big day.
Huong Tran shared with Nicole Team that she was very conflicted when considering whether to choose a traditional wedding dress or a modern design for her special day. We sat down with her to analyze the advantages of each dress. And in the end, our bride Huong Tran chose a modern 2-in-1 wedding dress design for her upcoming celebration in the sunny and vibrant city of California.
After finalizing the design concept for Hương’s unique wedding dress, Nicole Team began working on the “one-of-a-kind wedding dress” project while the bride-to-be had returned to the United States to resume her work. Throughout that time, we communicated with the bride to discuss each step of the journey in creating her one-of-a-kind design.
The wedding ceremony blended art and fashion.
For bride Huong Tran, the wedding was not simply a reception for guests, but also a special anniversary, a celebration of art and fashion combined.
To help our bride stand out in her own unique way, Nicole Bridal conceived and created the dream wedding dress that reflects Huong Tran’s personal style and personality.
Using Chantilly lace and expertly crafted wedding dress tailoring techniques, Nicole Team successfully created a modern bridal gown with a captivating, figure-hugging mermaid silhouette. The delicate cuts enhance the bride’s movement and create a sparkling effect throughout the reception. A special feature of this wedding dress is the detachable, embellished train, adding a graceful touch when viewed from behind. We focused on using a corset-style boning to create a flattering, slender waistline. This is one of the highlights of Nicole Bridal’s wedding dress design philosophy: Minimalism is timeless beauty.
To highlight the exquisite and captivating beauty of Huong Tran’s 2-in-1 wedding dress, a special wedding veil adorned with a striking 3D floral headband made the bride even more special. The blend of charm and femininity in this 2-in-1 wedding dress enhanced Huong’s already beautiful appearance more than ever.
The wedding dress that Nicole Bridal prepared for Huong was worn by the bride during the church marriage ceremony – in the presence of the priest and the congregation – and during the main ceremony of the momentous occasion. This versatile 2-in-1 wedding dress allowed her to experience all the wedding rituals while still maintaining her individuality.
“Everything went far better than we could have imagined, resulting in the dream wedding we had planned and prepared for over a year,” bride Huong Tran happily shared about her special day. And how wonderful it is to have Nicole Bridal as a part of that amazing journey.
