I went into the wedding dress shopping experience completley unsure of what kind of dress I wanted. I went to several bridal boutiques in Minneapolis, and felt really discouraged by not being able to find something I loved. I found many dresses I liked, but none of them felt right. Before I went to Che Bella, a bridal boutique in Minneapolis, I looked at the dresses they had online. One of the first dresses that came up was the Mali gown by Eddy K. I IMMEDIATELY knew I had to try on this dress, so I called Che Bella right when they opened the following day to make sure they had it in stock. I was fortuante enough to work with Jennifer, the owner of Che Bella, and had a wonderful experience. I tried on many dresses that day, including the Mali gown, but I always knew that the Mali gown was the dress made for me. It embodied my personality in a wedding dress - to me, the dress is bold & confident while also being elegant, whimsical, and timeless. The lace detailing, the sweetheart neckline, the detailing of the corset boning around the waist, and the ballgown with a long train made the dress so unique, seamlessly integrating all these beautiful details into one dress. I could not have dreamt up a more perfect wedding dress. - Maria, Eddy K Bride

Maria celebrated a Coastal Chic wedding at Redeemed Farm in Scandia, Minnesota, blending Cape Cod-esque details with Midwest vineyard charm for her big day. She wore the MALI gown from Eddy K's Dreams Collection, a ball gown wedding dress with a sweetheart neckline, lace detailing, corset boning at the waist, and a long train, found at Che Bella Boutique in Minneapolis after a discouraging search through several other bridal shops. "I IMMEDIATELY knew I had to try on this dress," Maria said, and after trying on gown after gown that day, the MALI was the one that felt made for her. "It embodied my personality in a wedding dress — bold & confident while also being elegant, whimsical, and timeless," Maria said, and the MALI carried that feeling from her farmhouse ceremony to the vineyard-inspired reception.
