Something Blue- Wedding Dress Inspiration for brides who love Blue.

rustic folk artisan embroidered silk belt cuffs wedding outfit

I like to help brides think about their blue wedding dress inspiration. I have made bespoke wedding dresses in all shades of blue from palest baby blue, sky, Royal blue, turquoise, teal and navy. A blue wedding dress is feminine and elegant without being saccharine. And of course wedding traditions makes it a high favourite after traditional white with the classic saying which includes ‘something blue’.

The heat from this season of Bridgerton is really bringing to the forefront the beauty and chemistry of an older romance. 

There's something extra special about finding someone later on in life, as Lady Violet is showing us all. Someone who has lived a whole life before meeting you, who has their own baggage and their own wisdom. Combining all that with all your own experiences to make something truly profound.

It's always a joy to hear from older brides who have found their own Lord (or Lady) Marcus. So of course I had to celebrate all the gorgeous mature brides who have chosen me to help them look exactly the way they want to when their love stories took centre stage.

Are you watching Lady Violet's storyline? 💜

"Your talent, creativity and attention to detail made this piece so much more than just part of a dress – it became a beautiful expression of who I am. We were completely overwhelmed and deeply impressed."

For this dip dye overskirt, Marina and I went through a few different colour combinations before we landed on something she felt was perfect. I'm always happy to create as many samples as a bride needs to feel really sure about her choice. Originally Marina wanted the gradient to start at yellow, but after I sent her the first sample, and seeing it in real life, she decided the yellow was a little too yellow, and we went for a lime green instead. That way, she still got the brightness she wanted, but staying within a more restricted colour palette. 

Then I get to begin layering all the colours. From that chartreuse, finishing on a deep, forest green, and then adding a layer of fine silver glitter on top. I think the sparkle is a beautiful touch. After that, I packaged it up carefully and sent to Switzerland, where Marina lives. And finally, her dip dye overskirt got to do its job - adding colour, style and personality to her wedding dress.

If you're a bride who wants to bring dopamine dressing to your wedding day, drop me a DM! There are so many fabulous ways of adding colour to your day, and I would love to help.
When I made this wedding dress in 2017, I wasn't expecting it to be such a success. It's been featured in so many bridal photoshoots (I think four or five so far), and every time the styling has been completely different.

It's so interesting to me how versatile a dress like this can be. All you need is a little imagination. Even though the dress itself was originally designed as a period-inspired piece, it's been used for an Edwardian Downton Abbey inspired photoshoot, a Victorian gypsy photoshoot and a modern outdoor shoot.

Which version do you prefer?

I'm currently have a sample sale on my Etsy, where this beauty is less than £700. So if you love this dress, grab her whilst you can!
