Questions Before You Request
Clear answers for LDS brides.
Is Samantha Covey a fit for LDS brides?
Yes. Samantha is a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and designs for brides who want their standards understood from the beginning.
Can you design with garments in mind?
Yes. Garment-aware design can include sleeve length, neckline, back coverage, opacity, lining, arm movement, waist placement, and how the dress feels when you sit, walk, hug, and dance.
Can the dress work for both ceremony and reception needs?
Often, yes. Some brides want one dress that works across the day, while others need a more specific temple, ceremony, or reception plan. Share those details in the request so Samantha can advise thoughtfully.
Do I need to know exactly what I want before requesting?
No. Inspiration photos, fabric preferences, notes about what feels too revealing, and examples of dresses you love or dislike are enough to begin.
How long does a custom wedding dress take?
A custom wedding dress typically has a 2-3 month turnaround. A 1-month rush is available for a fee.

Yes. Appointments are in Devon, Pennsylvania near Philadelphia, and Samantha serves LDS brides traveling from Greater Philadelphia and nearby cities, including Wilmington, Allentown, Lancaster, Harrisburg, Baltimore, New York City, and Washington DC.
Are appointments virtual?
Appointments are typically in person at the Devon studio. If you have unusual travel or timing constraints, include those details in the request so Samantha can advise on the best next step.
