MEET THE DESIGNER & OWNER
Lea-Ann Belter & Vanessa LeBouthlillier
Canadian designer Lea-Ann Belter has spent more than twenty years creating wedding gowns with a fresh approach to timeless romance. After studying at the International Academy of Design and Merchandising, she trained with a traditional couturier, developing the textile knowledge, tailoring discipline and exacting quality that continue to define her work.
Vanessa LeBouthlillier joined Lea-Ann Belter Bridal as a flagship boutique manager and expanded her role over nine years, from guiding brides through their gown journeys to collaborating with Lea-Ann on new collections. When the opportunity arose to purchase the brand, Vanessa stepped into ownership, bringing the next generation of Lea-Ann Belter forward while continuing to work alongside its founder and designer.
