Our Designers
At White Oak Bridal, we partner with independent designers and smaller bridal brands from the US and around the world. Like the Michigan-based husband-and-wife team behind Elissar Bridal, or Tara LaTour, who produces every gown in her Minnesota atelier. But whether they’re in New York, New Zealand, or somewhere in between, our designer partners are all creative, flexible, and a joy to work with. They focus on creative silhouettes, beautiful fabrications, customizability, and size inclusivity.
