Materials + Handmade Notes
Not all wedding dress fabrics are suitable for every keepsake. If your gown isn’t a good fit for the style you selected, we’ll reach out with the closest alternatives.
Each piece is handmade and may include small, natural variations—part of what makes it uniquely yours.
Remaining Fabric Choice
After your keepsake is complete, you can choose to have the remaining fabric returned to you or donated.
If you choose to donate the remainder, it will be donated to The Emma and Evan Foundation, supporting families and hospitals through bereavement care and NICU milestones.

Reviews
The hankie that Old Soul made from my dress is simply gorgeous! I wanted a way to keep a piece of my dress in the hopes to give a future daughter in law something “old” when she marries my son. This is the perfect tribute! I life that Old Soul includes a hand written note from the employee who made the keepsake adding a personal touch!
Our grandson will someday carry this special piece in his wedding day as a memory to the mother who died when he was five. He doesn’t have many memories of her but her legacy lives on through him. This will be a special connection to bridge his past to his future. Thank you for making this beautiful memento as well as the bouquet holder and locket for his “someday” bride”
So happy I found old soul bridal to create a timeless keepsake of my wedding day and knowing that I’m donating my dress for a good cause. Linda made a beautifully stitched handkerchief and the hand written note was an extra special touch.
Mom's gown was ultra simple but a beautiful satin. You took the satin and created hankies with exceptional embroidery and used the only decorative detail, satin covered buttons, to make a beautiful memory. Thank you. Also, thank you for the locket. Another creation to remind me of my parents live.
My husband and I got married over 20 years ago and I knew my son wouldn’t be using my wedding dress. Old Soul Bridal made a few pieces for me and they were all amazing, including this keepsake square which I loaned to a friend for her wedding as her something old. Old Soul Bridal does amazing work.
