WHAT FILIPINA BRIDES HAVE TO SAY ABOUT ELLA & MGC
Trusted by Filipina brides across the US, Canada, New Zealand, Australia, UK and beyond.
“I can’t believe that you have created my dream wedding dress into reality. I am beyond grateful for this, and you have no idea how blessed I am that I have found you to be able to include in our special day! Thank you so much”
♥Mariyen; From Texas, USA
“It was absolutely stunning and elegant. I wasn’t able to try it on immediately when I received it because of a saying from the Philippines—something along the lines of ‘You can’t try on your wedding dress before the big day, or it will bring bad luck!’ lol. But it was definitely worth the wait…
Once again, thank you so much for being a part of this magical moment in my life. I pray for your continued success and many more beautiful creations in the future. Your talent and craftsmanship truly made my day even more unforgettable, and I’ll always be grateful for the love and effort you put into making my dream dress a reality.”
♥ April; From Maryland, USA
“The dress was a showstopper. The crowd had a shock when I walked into the church. I received so many compliments! People were saying I looked like a princess, which is exactly what we were aiming for.
Thank you so much for being a huge part of our very special day. Looking at these photos, I can see Lucas and I showing our future kids and them being proud of their Filipino heritage. Again, thank you so much for helping me bring my vision to life! Hope we can work together again one day.”
♥ Psalm; From Sydney, Australia
“Thank you so much!! I got so many compliments on my gown! I felt so beautiful and connected to our culture, the dress was everything and then some!! Thank you again for making my wedding dress dreams come true”
♥ Janina; From California, USA
Your wedding dress isn’t just a dress — it’s your cultural story, beautifully told.
For Filipina brides abroad, your gown carries more meaning than most people realize.
It’s the moment your culture becomes visible.
The moment your fiancé’s family experiences a piece of who you are.
The moment two families — sometimes two cultures — come together in celebration.
And whether your groom is Filipino or not, your Filipiniana gown becomes a shared story:
A way to honor your heritage
A bridge between families
A symbol of respect and love
A modern expression of tradition
A moment you both cherish
Most brides don’t want “fully traditional” or “fully modern.”
They want that beautiful blend — elegant, meaningful, and contemporary.
That’s exactly what we design.
