About Us

It's every girl's dream to find the perfect wedding dress – well, Jeanne Hankerson literally dreams up the perfect dresses almost every night. “I have these inspirational dreams where I can see the dress, feel the dress. I usually dream that I see a woman in the dress, and when I wake up I have to find a sketchpad. It’s fate. I know that dream will come true – a woman will wear that dress.” After countless sketches and an itch to turn her dreams into reality, Jeanne started creating. With the help and support of her family and some amazingly talented staff, in 2009 SJ Couture was born.

SJ Couture creates original, high quality wedding gowns for today's woman. SJ has a niche: understated elegance. The simple, striking designs take vintage grace and infuse it with a contemporary twist. Jeanne believes that fashion is a frame only enhancing the perfection of the woman. Her gowns are ethereal, never ephemeral because your wedding is not just a day… it's a new beginning.
