A vision that started as a child has now become a reality for Mara Marie. Due to her love for fashion, Mara began sewing at a very young age. She pursued her fashion design and development degree, where she furthered her technical skills in pattern drafting, sewing, and draping. She trained at FIDM in Los Angeles, the London College of Fashion, and the University of Wisconsin-Stout. She also worked for prestigious bridal designers in New York City and Minneapolis during that time.
2016 Mara Marie Bridal was born in her studio apartment in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Her brand was founded on bringing bespoke gowns to life, ensuring the perfect fit for her brides. Mara Marie Bridal was recognized in the United States as the ‘Best Custom Dressmaker’ by Minnesota Bride Magazine multiple years in a row. However, her vision for the brand was always global, primarily with a base in London. In 2023, the first Mara Marie Bridal retail/atelier location was established in London. The brand has since gained international exposure through multiple esteemed publications, and her gowns have been featured in iconic locations such as Paris, Bali, and Santorini, to name a few. Mara Marie Bridal is known in the industry for her gorgeous textiles and feminine ball gowns and for creating the perfect fit.
When you visit the London showroom, you enter the luxurious world of Mara Marie Bridal. The space was curated for a private shopping experience, where Mara Marie can walk you through the art of her carefully crafted gowns and highlight the delicate details that make her gowns so unique. During your visit, you are welcome to see the atelier space, where your gown will be crafted specifically for you. When shopping at Mara Marie Bridal, you are welcome to select your dream gown from her recently released collections. If you want something truly exclusive, the brand offers bespoke gowns, allowing you to see the transformation from sketch to creation.
