About Gilded Shadows

Kristen from Gilded Shadows creates original and often one-of-a-kind adornments for the modern bride.

All lovingly handmade in Phoenix, Arizona, Gilded Shadows accessories feature a lovely assortment of vintage and new materials, offering custom sparkles or subtlety to reflect her customer’s own unique taste and style. Whether it's silk flowers, velvet millinery leaves, hand cut petals or stunning lace details – many of her design elements are sourced locally and then delicately crafted by Kristen in her home studio.
Gilded Shadows not only offers the finishing touch to your wedding day, but also a gorgeous keepsake for years to come.

Gilded Shadows designs can be found in the pages of Green Wedding Shoes, Wedding Sparrow, Style Me Pretty, 100 Layer Cake, Chic Vintage Brides, Wedding Chicks, One Fab Day, and Weddings Nouveau, among many, many others.

Of special note: Gilded Shadows donates a minimum of 5% of all profits to a select handful of local animal rescue groups. We love our rescue pups and want to make sure that these fabulous rescue groups can keep doing this much needed work.

Frequently asked questions
DO YOU OFFER EXPEDITED (RUSH) PRODUCTION FOR LAST MINUTE BRIDES??

Yes - most of the time I can accommodate a rush order within reason. During the wildly busy wedding season it's a bit more difficult but I do my best. There is typically a rush fee required to bump your last minute order ahead of my other standard timing orders. Please send me a convo to inquire about timing and any fee that may be required. Thank you!

I DON'T SEE EXACTLY WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR. DO YOU CREATE CUSTOM PIECES?

Perhaps - It will completely depend on what you have in mind and what my order backlog is at the time of your inquiry. Please have photos and a good description of what you are wanting, send me a convo and we can go from there. I'm very accommodating and love providing exceptional customer service but please know that sometimes it may be a bit costly if I need to spend additional time sourcing specific materials for a custom order (and making something that isn't a standard design).

DO YOU PROVIDE CARE INSTRUCTIONS? STYLING HELP?

Yes! If you are purchasing a veil, I include a card with details on how to iron or steam it along with four bobby pins to help styling. I also have a couple of videos on YouTube to help with styling. If you just can't seem to figure out how to style something please reach out to me - I'll go out of my way to help you!

I recommend that all veils and especially metal pieces be stored in a cool dry place to prevent any wrinkling or tarnishing that is more common in higher humidity locations. Wrapping items in fabric or felt isn't necessary but will help to keep them in perfect condition before your big day.

I'M AN INTERNATIONAL CUSTOMER AND DON'T SEE TRACKING SINCE MY ORDER LEFT THE USA. HELP?

I love my international customers! Please know that when you select First Class shipping (the lowest cost when you select your shipping method at checkout) it will ONLY show tracking while the package is in the USA. Once it leaves my country and is bound for yours, tracking will not show up until the package has been delivered.

If you need tracking or have a very tight deadline please select Priority or Express shipping. They are more expensive, however they will get to you faster and have tracking along the entire way.

If you wish to have your package insured please send me a convo first and I can create a special listing for you to purchase. Note: Priority and Express come with a small $50 USD insurance policy.
