The Purpose Behind TEMPÊTE

TEMPÊTE was created with one clear purpose: to redefine what bridalwear can be. In a world where tradition often overshadows individuality, TEMPÊTE offers a bold alternative—bridal fashion that is modern, versatile, and unapologetically personal. We design for brides who want more than just a dress for one day. Our re-wearable separates, statement veils, and intentional accessories are made to be styled your way and worn beyond the aisle. Rooted in design, driven by freedom of expression, and proudly made in Canada, TEMPÊTE is here to give modern brides the confidence to break the rules and celebrate their story on their own terms.

Fashion Influence Sparked a Purpose-Driven Brand

Meet Inga, the Founder of TEMPÊTE

Inga Avedyan is the founder and creative director of TEMPÊTE, a Vancouver-based bridal brand redefining modern wedding wear through re-wearable, mix-and-match design. The brand she built has been featured in Vogue, Elle, and Brides, and was seen on Dragons’ Den Season 18, where she brought her vision for a new bridal category to national television.

Inga is known for building boldly, especially when told something won’t work. She designs outside traditional paths, always looking for alternative ways to create, grow, and connect. Based in Vancouver, she welcomes modern brides seeking untraditional options with an open heart, a big smile, and a deeply personal approach to service.

Her journey is driven by grit, intuition, and an unwavering belief in finding her own way, shaped just as much by entrepreneurship as by motherhood. She is a mother of two daughters, who continually remind her to keep going, adapt, and lead with heart.

Designed to Be Worn Your Way

Our Design Philosophy

We don’t believe in one-size-fits-all bridalwear. TEMPÊTE was built on the idea that every bride deserves options. Our bridal separates are made to mix, match, and re-wear—with silhouettes that can evolve from ceremony to after-party, and even beyond the wedding day. Each piece is handmade in our Vancouver studio with intentionality, structure, and edge. We prioritize quality over quantity, thoughtful design over trends, and creative expression over tradition.
