{Custom Bridal Jewelry}
{The chic gal behind the jewelry}
Hello! I'm Lindsay, originally from Baltimore, MD, I headed North to New York City to start my career in advertising. While pursuing my career, I founded Everistta (formally known as LCVintage) and have been working towards growing my other passion for designing jewelry ever since. I strive to design chic jewelry that will fit your style. I love jewelry that incorporates trends, but is also classic to wear for years to come. Our name ‘Everistta’ is derived from “forever fashionista” meaning classic jewelry that’s not boring. {Our motto is “chic style:: your own way”. That holds true for our Bridal collections too.} I love working with brides! I planned my Baltimore, MD wedding in 2011 and haven’t stopped looking at wedding details ever since. For brides, I strive to create an heirloom piece that you will not only wear when you say “I do”, but can be passed down to future generations and friends. For your bridesmaids, I like to work with you to create jewelry that not only incorporates your wedding vision, but also the style of your maid so she wears your piece long after the big day. Your wedding is all about the details, and just like I hemmed and hawed over every last detail of my own big day, I will take your wedding to heart and create jewelry we are both in love with for your day. After all, this is one of the biggest moments of your life and I’m honored to work with you to play a small role. {PS…photos courtesy of Baltimore gal, Jill Gately of Jill Gately Photography.

Why custom? Many brides are opting to have jewelry made for themselves, their bridesmaids, flower girls, mother of the bride and mother of the groom. Custom jewelry ensures that you get something special and uniquely yours. It is designed with your style and bridal vision in mind. Also, it is often higher quality than mass produced wedding jewelry. Quality is important when you are giving your maids their jewelry as gifts. You want to give them something that will last well beyond your bid day. Most people think that custom jewelry is expensive, but the truth is that it is often on par with mass produced (and lower quality) jewelry. Furthermore, because it is custom, you have more options for ways to reduce costs, such as substituting glass for crystal . Custom jewelry allows you to match your jewelry perfectly with the colors of your wedding. There are many colors of gemstones and many more of Swarovski crystal. We work together until your happy to make sure each piece is just right for you.
The design process… First you should reach me via email (lindsay@everistta.com) and I will send over a short design form for you to fill out that allows me to get a better feel for your big day. I ask that you mail me swatches and email a picture of your dress/bridesmaids dresses/mother’s dresses to match colors and styles. If you do not have your dresses finalized yet, don’t worry. We can work with just your vision too. Then, taking into consideration the style of the wedding and the style of the dresses, we come up with a design that is based on something that you have seen, something brand new or something that I have previously designed. I will send you a proposal that includes sketches and material options for your pieces at different price points. You review and we work together until we are both happy with the end product. Most pieces are fit to your body type so I will ask for wrist measurements, etc. too.
What you get… Beautiful custom jewelry tailored to you and your wedding party. Pieces will be high quality and durable. They make great bridesmaids gifts. Jewelry that you and your maids will want to wear well after “I Do”. Also, all pieces come in gift boxes. Don’t forget about other important members of your day too. Often times my brides also gift their mom and future mother-in-law with jewelry that matches their dress and your wedding style. Please note, I use all freshwater pearls and vintage brooches in the pieces that require it, giving you a higher quality piece.
Creating Heirloom Pieces… If you have a special brooch or pearls from your mother, grandmother or relative; I love to incorporate those heirlooms into your piece. A chic and special way to incorporate “something old and something new”. For my own bridal necklace , I combined vintage brooches that I found with pearls and rhinestones from necklaces of both of my grandmothers. It was my way of keeping them with me on my big day. Let me know what you want to include and we can discuss design options. We can either permanently attach the piece or just attached it for your wedding.
What are some of our clients saying… Shannon, April 2012 ~ “Lindsay was FANTASTIC to work with! All I had to do was tell her what I was thinking (that I wanted pearls in multiple strands), and she did the rest! The bracelet and necklace she designed for me was exactly what I had envisioned, and my bridesmaids and mom/step-mom/mother-in-law all loved their bracelets too! She is SO full of talent and I will use her again and again for all my future jewelry needs. I give her an A+++!” Kim, April 2012 ~ “Lindsay was such a delight to work with. My sister introduced me to her beautiful Emmie's (which I purchased as a maid of honor present for her) and was just floored by how sparkly and gorgeous the silver Emmie was. The only thing that surpassed my love of the Emmie was my Constance brooch bracelet that I ordered. Lindsay sent so many pictures of antique brooches that she found, and I got to hand select "my" brooch. The bracelet was stunning! It will be a wedding piece that I pass along to my children, God willing! You will wow people with any jewelry from Lindsay!” Amanda, October 2011 ~ “Lindsay was a joy to work with! Her creativity is A-MAZING & the quality of her work is exceptional. I am so grateful I found her to do my jewelry & my bridesmaids jewelry on the most important day of my life! I would recommend her to anyone that is in search of creative, unique beautiful jewelry. I wore my bracelet that she made for my special day on my Honeymoon as well & the security guards actually stopped me going through airport security to tell me how much they loved it!! She needs to be somewhere like Hollywood designing- she's wonderful!”
