Novia En Perla has not received any gifts yet
From a sisters love to love in matrimony, the story of how Novia En Perla came to be all started with an innocent request for help.
It was December 2012, and my sister was planning for the biggest day of her life. Searching all corners of the internet and every wedding magazine she could find, she found herself spoilt for choice and not knowing which direction to take. What theme should the wedding be? What style of dress should she wear? How to write their invites? How to make it her own? So many questions, each one with so many possible answers.
From hair accessories to table decorations, with all the options available it was understandable that she felt over-whelmed with choice! And with only 6 months before her wedding day, time was of the essence. She came to me for help, and I was excited and ready with my mood boards!
It was then when my flare started to spark, we sat for hours going through themes and ideas, trying to find the perfect fit for her and her husband to be. After some time & consideration, she finally found her favorite wedding theme; Vintage Chic. And with the theme decided, it was time for me to get to work on the details!
Starting with the dress and working within her budget, we found the perfect gown and bridal accessories to work with. We ordered the pieces from a manufacturer in China, and not surprisingly, they arrived under-par and far from fit for my sisters wedding. But I feared not, its only a bump in the road to giving her the special wedding she truly deserves. Pushing forward, I ordered brand new fabrics, ribbons, clips, crystals, pearls and everything I needed to transform her dress and accessories from damaged and useless to chic and unique.
Working throughout the nights, it wasn't long before her outfit was ready for fitting and her accessories were perfectly set and ready to make her shine in the spot light, on the most important day of her life.
With only a couple more months left before the wedding day, I turned my focus on getting every little detail of the wedding theme ready. From invites to table charts and numbers, decorations and all small things in between. I knew I had to make their wedding a day to remember.
Before we knew it, the wedding date had arrived and I went into over-drive. Making sure every origami flower was placed perfectly, all the catering and gift bags were ready for the guests, and that there wasn't a fork out of place! But most importantly, that my sister was happy and that she looked stunning in her dress and accessories. The wedding went off without a hitch and I've never seen my sister so happy, she was glistening all day long and received compliments for months to come!

Now, let's fast forward a little. Not long after the wedding, I met my partner Mark, who like me, shares a passion for design with a chic and unique style. We spent many nights sipping wine, eating cheese and talking into the late hours of the night, and when we talked about the story of my sister's wedding we both had a light bulb moment! It was from that moment on that we decided to start Novia En Perla and recreate the unique wedding I gave my sister, and make it available to you!
Together we travelled to China with our new designs to find a manufacturer that could hand make our collection in an ethical way, with high quality and attention to detail. It took time, and many meetings with a great deal of manufactures until we found the right team to create the foundations for each of our products.
Every item that is produced is then sent to us for inspection and completion where we add the finishing touches and details to each product, state side. We ship only the highest quality and every item we sell is perfected by hand, by us, to ensure you receive the same standard I gave my sister on her wedding day.
