I ALWAYS rent my dresses from raw gold rentals! I have rented dresses from them multiple times and have gotten wedding and elopement photography content all over the country! Their website is so easy to navigate and if I have any questions on sizing or fit for my models they are able to answer my questions in a very personal way. They have never been late on shipping, have been very understanding when dresses show a little dirt from the shoot, and make mailing back the dresses soooo easy with very clear instructions. Also every dress is STUNNING, they have a range of sizes, and always feature my work. I never will never work with anyone else for dress rentals! -

I am absolutely obsessed with all of Kylee’s gowns! I have rented from her multiple times. Each time, the gown is sent in wonderful condition. I’ve rented from other gown rentals in the past, and the gowns have been sent dirty/smelly- obviously not taken care of. Kylees are not like that. She truly treasures her gowns and it shows through the quality of their upkeep.Kylee is also a gem. She is so communicative and will always do her best to help. I’ve had photoshoots come up last minute and she always does her absolute best to help make sure I get a gown in time.I will forever continue to rent through her! So grateful to have a company I can trust with town rentals. -

When I first started my wedding photography business I wanted to build and create a beautiful portfolio to show my clients. I started out with styled shoots and my first ever dress rental was from Raw Golden Rentals. I’d seen some of their dresses mentioned on Instagram a few times and the process of renting one was so easy. Kylee and the staff of RGR were always so helpful and the delivery was always quick and on time. I’m IN LOVE with the dress collection RGR has curated over the years and even was able to buy some of their dresses that they would sell when making room for more amazing pieces. Raw Golden Rentals has high quality dresses, amazing customer service, and such an easy process and system for renting that I’ve ever experienced. I tried a few others once or twice but I think I’m spoiled with how easy it is to rent from RGR and the fact that they put correct sizing on the dresses just shows how much care they put into their business. If you’re on the fence about renting from them, don’t be. I guarantee they will become you’re go-to dress rental place just like they became mine.

I'M A BRIDE, CAN I RENT FROM YOU?
My main purpose of this business is for styled shoots. I have rented to brides in the past & it is a very different process. Most brides need to try on a gown prior to their wedding to make sure it fits.
So contact me if you're interested and we can see if we can make it work!
If I find out that a gown was rented for a real bridals/wedding/elopement/event (without authorization) then it is a $1000 minimum charge.
I have released a few gowns that I have designed myself and those will be for sale in the near future. You can always reach out about that!
