Celebrate a love story with an exquisite bridal heirloom—a handcrafted replica designed to preserve your wedding memories and honour a moment that lasts forever.
The Wedding Dress Bridal Heirloom is a bespoke piece, lovingly handcrafted to transform your most treasured memories into a timeless, tangible part of your love story.
Whether incorporating small sections of your original gown or using carefully sourced fabrics that echo its spirit, each doll is intricately stitched to capture more than just a likeness. It holds the feeling, the quiet promises, and the unmistakable sparkle of your wedding day.
If you still have your dress, small sections are carefully selected and preserved with the greatest respect for the original garment. If your dress is no longer available, we can thoughtfully recreate its essence using laces, silks, and trims inspired by your photographs.
Because your story deserves time, care, and quiet devotion, allow up to 12 weeks for your bridal heirloom to be individually handcrafted.
An Upper Dhali® Bridal Heirloom is more than a doll—it is a memory preserved, a reflection of your love, and a beautiful story destined to be cherished for generations.

- Preserving Your Original Dress: If you prefer to keep your gown intact, or if it is no longer available, we can work from detailed photos to source matching fabrics, laces, and trims that capture the essence of your dress without altering the original.
- Sourcing Materials: If you do not have fabric to send, we can source high-quality materials to match the textures, colours, and sentimental details of your vision.

- Lead Time: Please allow up to 12 weeks from the receipt of your design details and fabrics, as this intricate process takes time to ensure a true heirloom you’ll treasure forever.
