NARDOS Brands is known for their commitment to quality, innovation, and craftsmanship, having gained international popularity.
Born and raised in Eritrea, Africa, Nardos’s inspiration in pursuing a career in the fashion industry lay in the hands of her mother’s sewing.
Upon moving to the United States to attend school, Nardos began her career in a luxe fabric store located in Dallas, Texas. Her path led her to a in-house design job at Stanley Korshak. Building reputable followers that shared her like-minded eye.
In 2012, she launched NARDOS Couture.
The brand’s collection is wide outside of specializing in bridal wear. They offer haute couture, both a spring and fall collection, as well as ready-to-wear dresses. Every season, NARDOS pulls inspiration from natural environments that allow them to create design that display timeless romance without losing the sense of modern elegance.
“NARDOS believes strongly in purpose; each collection is based on faith and beauty that radiates from within the individual wearing it.”
In line with her faith, Nardos hopes to one day inspire young hearts who feel a similar pull to fashion as she once did.

Rain fell softly over Covington the day Rachel and Collin said “I do,” setting the tone for a wedding that felt equal parts timeless and cinematic. From lace details and long sleeves to downtown streets glistening, their day unfolded with quiet elegance and moody beauty—proof that sometimes, the most memorable love stories are the ones written under cloudy skies.
No matter which communication method you choose, the goal is to keep your crew feeling included, informed, and excited to support you. A little intentionality goes a long way—keep it simple, keep it clear, and don’t be afraid to have some fun with it. With the right rhythm and tools, your wedding party will be your biggest supporters (and best hype team) all the way through “I do.”
Weddings are about more than just beautiful details and unforgettable moments—they’re about connection. As much as couples look forward to celebrating with their loved ones, it’s the energy between guests that often makes the day feel truly alive. From the way you design your seating chart to the kind of entertainment and guest experiences you offer, thoughtful planning can create the perfect environment for meaningful conversation to unfold naturally. Whether it’s laughter shared over cocktails or heartfelt words exchanged between old friends, the right touches can turn a celebration into a lasting memory.
At the heart of every great wedding is the feeling that guests weren’t just attending—they were part of something special. When couples infuse their day with intention, personality, and little sparks of interaction, it sets the stage for stories, laughter, and genuine connection. Whether it’s a creative guestbook, a signature cocktail, or a surprise dance moment that brings everyone together, those small choices invite your guests to do more than celebrate—they invite them to engage. And that’s where the magic happens.
When it comes to planning your wedding day, one of the most overlooked—but incredibly impactful—parts of the process is building a thoughtful, personalized timeline. While some couples fear that having a structured schedule will make the day feel rigid or overly orchestrated, the truth is just the opposite. A well-crafted timeline is what actually gives you the freedom to be fully present. It keeps things flowing smoothly, helps prevent stress, and creates space for those spontaneous, joy-filled moments you’ll remember forever. Whether you’re working with a planner or relying on your photographer and venue team, your timeline is the key to a day that feels intentional, relaxed, and entirely you.
Haley and Griffin’s wedding day was the perfect blend of sweetness, energy, and effortless connection. From getting ready at the timeless Lytle Park Hotel to rooftop portraits that felt straight out of a movie, their love took center stage in every moment. The indoor ceremony at Drees Pavilion was full of emotion, followed by candid skyline portraits and a reception that radiated pure joy. Every detail felt personal, every glance between them genuine—and their day was a true reflection of what it looks like to be fully present in love.
