Hello, I'm Sue Ferreira, the founder of Ivory Bridal Studio. For nearly a decade, I've had the privilege of helping brides find their dream gowns, a journey that began in my hometown of Port Elizabeth. There's a certain magic in that moment when a bride sees herself in a dress and knows it's the one—that's the feeling I've built my career on.

My love for the bridal industry grew, but my heart found a new home in the stunning Paarl Winelands. Over time, as my family and I spent more time here, I fell in love with the breathtaking scenery and the warm, welcoming community. I also noticed a need for a special place where local brides could find a curated selection of gowns paired with a truly personal and intimate styling experience.

After two years of dreaming and waiting for the perfect location, Ivory Bridal Studio was born. I believe some things are meant to be, and I am committed to creating a space that feels just as magical as the moment you find your dress.

My philosophy is simple: I am a "people person" first and foremost. While I adore the dresses themselves, my true passion is connecting with each bride, understanding her unique vision, and guiding her to a gown that not only looks beautiful but also feels like "her." Our collection is a reflection of this belief, with a hand-picked selection of gowns that cater to every style—from classic and elegant to modern and whimsical.

The journey to finding your wedding dress is one of the most special parts of your wedding planning, and I would be honored to be a part of yours. I can't wait to hear your love story and help you find the dress that completes it.
