Flower girls and page boys
I also make bespoke flower girl dresses for the younger members of your bridal party. So often the flower girl is dresses in a standard ivory dress but I love to make coloured dresses for the little ones. It is such an unusual choice nowadays but used to be the norm. You can choose to have your flower girl dresses in the same colour as the rest of the bridesmaid or in her own unique shade to compliment the tone. A bespoke bridesmaids dress London alongside a matching flower girl is a really cute picture.
I know how important it is to time the measuring and fittings for flower girls and page boys. I will suggest a useful timetable, as these youngsters grow, to make sure we have well fittings garments on the day of your wedding. With slightly older flower girls, tweens, allowing for bodies that might also change shape as well as just grow upwards is something I have a lot of experience getting right.
Bespoke bridesmaids dress London
Choosing to have your bridesmaids dresses made bespoke for your wedding day elevates your wedding to an exceptional level. It means each bridesmaid will have a dress uniquely fitted to her figure, a perfect fit. You can avoid the compromises required when buying off the peg dresses. Some brides choose to have all their bridesmaids wearing the same style, other times different colours or styles might be used. Varying the neckline is a popular say to ensure the dresses flatter each bridesmaid without looking like they are not all part of the same set.
If you are looking for a bespoke bridesmaids dress London I would be delighted to help. I am also useful for brides based around Surrey and the Southeast as well as further afield.

Design for Groomsmen - waistcoats and cravats
If you are looking for waistcoats or cravats for the groom, best man, ushers or pageboys I can help with this too. Whether a modern, vintage or historical style i can make bespoke waistcoats to order, made to measure to fit each groomsman. I love to make tiny little versions of the waistcoats for the page boy or ring bearer too. They look really sweet with a mini cravat or bow time in silk to match the flower girl or bridesmaids.
Costs for bespoke bridesmaids dress in London.
Not everyone wants to spend out on having the dresses and waistcoats made on a bespoke budget. When considering the pros and cons I have every respect for the bride with a fixed budget in mind. I can never compete with the lower cost off the peg prices of factory made garments. Do bear in mind, when you are comparing options, that standard size bridesmaids dresses often require several hundreds of pounds worth of alterations as well as the initial buying cost.
