Buttercup Short Or Long Custom Gown

Our joy and passion is creating awesome Custom Gowns with Couture detailing and finishing, and have created “Dream Dresses” for hundreds of brides since 2005 far and wide.

Designer Janay, along with a talented team of helpers, will walk you through the Custom process from design to final fittings. For long-distance brides from our Kansas City studio, we can mail your dress to be altered where you live or would be happy to work with you to quickly turn-around your alterations if you can visit.

There is unlimited design potential to express your true self on the most style-defining day of your lifetime.

Visit our website (Janay-A) for the full custom experience, browse our gallery of gowns, and to read our all 5-star reviews from 64 happy brides on Wedding Wire.

We’ll be looking forward to working with you!

Our Unique Custom Process:

1. Complimentary “Dream Dress Discussion”
   First, set up your free designer consultation at our Mission, Kansas Studio or via Skype to co-design the all of the elements of your dress. It is helpful to have a few pictures of styles that you like… It’s all about you!

We will choose fabrics, determine every detail of your custom design, create your “Working Gown Sketch” in pencil, mail you fabric swatches, and take your measurements.

Once we have chosen all of the elements of your dress, we’ll give you an estimated custom quote, usually within $100-200 of the final price. We’ll be finalizing your exact cost after the consultation, when we can estimate the sewing time, fabric yardage, etc. more precisely.

2. Finalize Design
   After our “Dream Dress Discussion” we will hand-draw a “Fancy Gown Sketch” in pen for you, reflecting all of the elements we choose together at our first meeting. We’ll factor-in all of the costs and create your “Custom Proposal”.

Due to high demand, we are only able to create our hand-drawn custom gown sketch for serious inquiries, and require a deposit of $50, which applies to your initial gown deposit. See "Custom Gown Sketch Deposit" Listing

3. Your Perfect Fit
   Having your wedding gown custom made is great for Every BODY (including hard-to-fit sized not typically served by off-the-rack gowns, like plus sizes, petites, etc.) since each dress is made-to-measure. We'll send you a detailed measurement sheet with instructions to fill out.

4. When to Order
   Due to the intensive process of hand-making each special gown and our limited production capacity, we advise brides to order 1.5 years- 6 months BEFORE their wedding date. The earlier you order, the earlier you get the dress! We sometimes can rush orders with shorter timelines– contact us for availability.

5. Your Gown is handmade in-house
   Your authentic gown pattern and dress will be created, and your gown will be sewn using expert couture techniques by our small team.

6. Fittings
   Your gown pricing includes fittings to perfection if visiting our Studio outside of KC. Please let us know if you'll be visiting at the time of your order.

Then it’s time to rock that aisle, girl!

Note: We can take inspiration from other dress designs, but out of respect to other designers and laws we never exactly copy dresses by other designers.
