Yellow and ivory spring bridesmaids and flower girls for Rachel


Rachel commissioned three silk and tulle dresses for her younger bridesmaids and two shop bought dresses were customised for her grown-up attendants.

The two teen bridesmaids had v-neck ivory silk dupion bodices with wrap-over ruched detailing and a ruched sash. The younger girl had a simple round necked bodice with sash. All the girls had romantic ballet length skirts in layers of gathered ivory tulle over yellow satin.

Style changes for the adult dresses

Rachel found the simple yellow linen shift dresses an brought them to me for style changes. We added a lace layer, keeping the feature cut-out neckline and re-binding all the edges in the original yellow trim. The hems were finished with a pretty scalloped edge for a softer look. I also made the wide wrap around sashes in the same ivory silk as the younger bridesmaids.


I don’t take sizing alterations on anything other than wedding dresses but style changes to bought dresses are welcome as part of a larger dressmaking commission.

Making the Custom flower girl dresses Surrey

Rachel narrowed down her lace choice to just two from my samples book of hundreds. In the end she chose the lace on the right as it was a closer match to the lace for her own bolero.

Maybe some of the loveliest feedback I've ever received from a bride 🥹

And her choice for her bespoke wedding dress was so much fun to work on! I find that mature brides often make the best decisions when it comes to what they want to wear on their wedding day. They're not afraid to do something different and I'm here for it!

Isn't that ombre so satisfying?

Creating colourful, showstopping bespoke wedding dresses is my absolute favourite thing to do (thank goodness I've made a business out of it)!
Bride Jennifer already had her wedding dress picked out, but wanted to elevate it to a whole new level. She went for the phoenix colourway - starting with bright yellow, going through orange, red, pink and purple, until the very end with a final hint of deep, royal blue. It is such a winning combination.

It's wonderful knowing there are brides out there who love colour as much as I do! And who are trust me to transform their bridal outfit into something truly unique, like this dip dye wedding dress. Alternative brides all the way 💜

Usually when it comes to bridal alterations, the aim of the game is to leave no trace. Your work has to be invisible, so that no one knows that any changes have been made at all.

But with Catherine's dress, things were a little different...

I love an analogy, and I think this one is a really powerful one.
