Here's a shadow box we just finished. First time we've ever framed a wedding gown. The bride had a definite idea what she wanted and we helped her get there. The challenge was to minimize the frame depth and size (40"x60") to keep the cost down as well as spatial limitations. She was thrilled with the result, so we were too.

Very nicely done. I also like how the gown was mounted!
Kudos, young lady!!
This is really well done. Really a great display. And your clients are thrilled! Fabulous!

Every shadowbox tells a story, and this story is missing an image of the wedding couple in their clothes now forever framed here. Over the years, my feeling is that I am not the only person who would want to see the bride and groom that owned and wore this ensemble. But, this is merely my opinion.

Don't they all! :shocked:
What a challenging job, but I would also agree with Jini...in that every shadowbox that has some type of personal momento enclosed needs to "tell a story..." to the guest coming over for dinner. Without the owner explained why something is framed, the presentation should always be self-explanatory.
Congrats!
