You spend hours finding the perfect dress. Don't store it in a box. Let us turn it into an instant heirloom memory bear that captures all the details that bring you back to your wedding day.

Finished bear measures approximately 17 inches tall and is made entirely from your dress.

*This is for ONE wedding dress bear. If you would like a bride and groom bear please order TWO bears.  Photo shown with optional veil & personalization added. Go to ADD ONS if you would like to add to your bear.

Some ideas:

  • Add your bridesmaid dress for a pop of color to your bear
  • Make two bears: a bride and groom bear!
  • Highlight a unique design detail on your dress like the front or back bodice
  • Order a coordinating wedding quilt to match your bear

**Please note: Some dress fabrics are not suitable as a bear. CONTACT US if you have any questions. Your special bear is handmade to order and will take approximately 6-8 weeks to complete (+shipping time)
