Being nominated for the Wedding Industry Awards feels like such a big deal, especially since I`m just a one-woman business, doing the best I can!
However you choose to help, I`m truly truly grateful 💜
How fabulous does Caroline look??
For her bespoke design, bride Caroline wanted a vibrant jewel tone wedding dress in a sparkling sequined tulle and dramatic coat with portrait neckline.
I`ve noticed a rise in popularity in this double design. It`s such a fun way of adding a bit of drama to your wedding day - you can wear the dress coat during the ceremony, and then reveal another stunning look underneath for the reception.
Caroline has already said she plans to come back to me to get her dress and coat altered, so she can wear them out more. Yes Caroline!

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...

This is the 2nd look I made for a recent cultural fusion styled wedding shoot.
It`s a variation of my highly popular Evie bridal separates. For this iteration, I made ivory silk trousers and a burgundy top with the traditional Indian latkan ties at the back.
I`ve made my Evie separates quite a few times now: with or without sleeves (sometimes removable, sometimes not), with a skirt, without a skirt etc etc. I think there`s something about the simple, clean lines that really speaks to brides looking for something chic, modern and a little different. Especially this version, with that gorgeous crimson top and embroidered belt to match.
Is this outfit speaking to you? I still have slots for weddings in 2025 and early 2026. Drop me a DM and let`s have a chat 💖
Have a look at my previous post to see the other wedding outfit I made for the day - it couldn`t be more different to this one!)
