Bentley + Lace Wins Lenovo & Dallas Cowboys Tech Grant Package

Bentley + Lace has been recognized as a winner in the 2025 “Empowering the Heart of Texas” small business program by the Dallas Cowboys and Lenovo

This amazing initiative, powered by Lenovo’s Evolve Small Business Program, celebrates entrepreneurs who are making an impact in their communities. Ten small businesses across the region were chosen as finalists, and each was awarded a Lenovo Tech Grant Package—including brand-new laptops, business-boosting technology, and recognition from both the Dallas Cowboys and Lenovo.

Small business meets big stage: Bentley + Lace is honored as one of only 10 winners in Lenovo’s Empowering the Heart of Texas program.

At Bentley + Lace, we’ve spent over a decade designing and creating couture and custom rental gowns that empower photographers, moms, and creatives nationwide. Every piece we make—from luxury fabrics to custom details—is handcrafted to bring photoshoots, special events, and family milestones to life.

Running a growing small business like ours requires more than just creativity—it demands strong technology to streamline shipping, manage nationwide rentals, and connect with our amazing community of moms and photographers.

Thanks to Lenovo and the Dallas Cowboys, we now have access to the tools that will help us:

  • Scale our custom gown rental program nationwide with better efficiency.
  • Enhance our digital marketing and online booking systems.
  • Stay connected with photographers, moms, and brand partners across the U.S.
  • Push our design and customer service experience to an even higher level.
