Derek Hough is apparently a big fan of lapel pins and brooches. And he absolutely loves buying from designer Mindy Lam. Each of her pieces is incredibly elaborate and tells a story.

Although Lam puts a lot of thought into each piece she designs, she sometimes receives special requests. Derek Hough specially commissioned a brooch for his wedding day and Lam happily obliged.
On Mindy Lam’s Instagram page, she uploaded a stunning photo of Derek’s wedding day brooch and shared the story behind it. She created a beautiful story about a golden dove and his love for a budding pearl blossom.
“Realizing the grand pair developed a deep connection, the nook extended its golden branches, thriving and spreading as their devotion for each other grows… Together they nurtured a new pearl blossom, as they continued to build and cherish each new spark of life,” she concluded.

Who is Mindy Lam?
According to Reality Tidbit, Mindy Lam struggled with serious health issues throughout the early 2010s. Sadly, her health concerns forced her to close her business. After receiving a kidney transplant from her daughter, Lam was able to relaunch her business. Reality Tidbit shares that her work has been featured in publications such as Brides Magazine and Glamour.
These days, it seems that Mindy Lam works with many high-profile clients. Derek Hough certainly seems pleased with her work and his fans have noticed his beautiful pins onscreen.
