ON THE MIRROR MOMENT
After more than fifteen years in bridal, the moment in front of the mirror still feels sacred to me. It is where nerves soften, stories unfold, and a woman begins to see herself stepping into a new chapter. Guiding someone to that place of confidence and clarity is what keeps this work meaningful & incredibly rewarding.
ON AESTHETIC
I am drawn to gowns that feel timeless with intention. Clean lines. Luxurious fabrics. Thoughtful construction. Every seam and drape should feel purposeful. A gown should transcend trend and feel heirloom worthy while remaining relevant.
ON INSPIRATION
Travel continually shapes my eye. London. Paris. Cape Town. I am inspired by proportion, craftsmanship, and fashion that feels effortless rather than overworked.
ON ADVICE
Protect your engagement. Not every life milestone needs to happen at once. Linger over dinners. Take the trip. Let this season breathe. You will never get it back.

ON THE YES MOMENT
The instant a bride looks in the mirror and realizes she gets to marry her best friend in that dress never loses its magic. Watching that emotion unfold in real time is something I never take for granted.
ON STYLE
My personal style leans sporty and relaxed, but my bridal aesthetic is refined and structured. I love balance. Clean lines paired with thoughtful detail. A look that feels polished, confident, and completely wearable.
ON WHAT BRIDES OVERTHINK
Brides often worry that they need to try on more gowns just to be sure. If you feel that emotional shift, trust it. The goal is to find your wedding gown. Once you do, you do not need to keep searching for something better. Relish in the moment!
OFF THE CLOCK
Slow mornings, coffee from a favorite local spot, no plans but the ones I fall into, wandering boutiques without a plan, and long walks with my pup, Lou.

ON HER CAREER SHIFT
I began my career as a CPA and spent over five years in public accounting. After finding my own gown at Ladies of Lineage, I experienced firsthand how powerful and emotional this process is. That moment shifted everything for me, and I’ve never looked back.
ON QUIET LUXURY
I am drawn to craftsmanship and subtle elegance. Quality fabrics. Clean construction. Details that whisper rather than shout. I’m mesmerised daily by our designers’ dedication to the highest level of design & craftsmanship.
ON THE SURPRISE GOWN
Many brides walk in convinced they know exactly what they want. The gown that surprises them often ends up being the one that makes them stand taller and glow brighter. I encourage everyone to try on different styles. You’ll either be blown away by how much you love it or come out more confident in your original idea.
ON HER WEDDING
I was married in Aspen in a fitted gown with a high neckline and long sleeves. Elizabeth was my stylist here at Ladies of Lineage and nailed it with her first pull. It felt entirely like me, and I still look back and love it.
ANNA GORMAN
BRIDAL STYLIST & OLD SOUL.

ON ROMANCE
I am endlessly drawn to old-world elegance. Heavy draping. Buttery ivory. Mantilla veils. Structured corsetry. I love when a gown feels both timeless and completely sentimental.
ON PERSONAL WEDDINGS
Cody and I were married in my parents’ backyard with a hot dog food truck and a cake I made myself. It was deeply personal and completely ours. My advice to any bride is to craft a day that feels intentional and full of you and your fiancés personalities. It will provide comfort and create pictures you’ll smile back on forever.
ON THE DETAILS
The smallest elements are often the most powerful. A mantilla veil layered just right. The weight of a fabric. The way a structured corset changes posture. I love helping brides see how subtle choices can completely transform how a gown feels.
ON LITTLE JOYS
True crime podcasts, a craft of any kind, vintage details, and bread in any form could make my day any day.

ON BEHIND THE SCENES
While brides see the sparkle of the showroom, I focus on the structure that makes everything feel seamless. From coordinating timelines to managing the small logistical details, my role is to ensure each bride’s experience feels organized, calm, and stress-free. I’ll handle the rest.
ON MY OWN YES MOMENT
I was married at The Don CeSar in St. Pete Beach. The first gown I tried on at Ladies of Lineage was the one. It matched both my vision and my venue. Even now, after trying on countless dresses, I would still choose it every single time. Shoutout to Elizabeth for bringing my vision to life on the first pull!
ON ROOTS
I met my husband in second grade, so I have always believed in slow, steady love stories. That perspective shapes the way I approach this season for our brides. It is not just one day. It is the beginning of something lasting.
OFF THE CLOCK
You’ll find me watching reruns of The Office, soaking up Siesta Key sunshine, or tending to my sourdough starter.

ON BRIDAL
A wedding gown is often the most significant piece a woman will ever wear. It marks a transition. A beginning. A memory in motion. I am inspired by the responsibility of shaping how that story is shared, weaving together the bride’s vision, our brand, and the designers who bring it to life.
ON THE LINEAGE EXPERIENCE
The Lineage experience lives in the details. The signed champagne corks. The memories woven into our walls. The subtle touches that make an appointment feel intentional. It is more than a boutique. It is a community built on meaningful moments.
ON PERSONAL STYLE
I love building on timeless foundations and layering in something unexpected. Leopard with stripes. A bold pop of color. Texture that transforms the look. My bridal aesthetic follows that same philosophy. Classic at its core with a thoughtful twist.
OFF DUTY
Slow coffee mornings, patio weather, a sunset boat cruise, and live music at The Jimmy with an Aperol Spritz in hand.

ON FIRST IMPRESSIONS
One of my favorite moments is watching someone pause outside our windows, smiling at the gowns. It feels straight out of a movie every time. That first spark of excitement is something that will never get old.
ON FINISHING TOUCHES
I have always loved the little details that pull a look together. A bold lip. The right earring. The final adjustment before stepping out the door. I did my own hair and makeup for my wedding and absolutely loved the process. There is something empowering about those finishing touches, and especially in bridal, that confidence is everything.
ON STYLE
I gravitate toward feminine, classic pieces with the occasional bold shoe or statement accessory. In bridal, I love traditional silhouettes elevated by modern details that feel timeless yet fresh.
ON WHAT BRIDES NEED TO HEAR
Details matter, but your wedding day is about marrying your person. The color of the cocktail napkins should never outweigh the joy of the moment. Take it from someone who had to remind herself that, too!
OFF DUTY
Find me somewhere sunny or anywhere near the water.
