I made a bespoke ballerina length wedding dress for my lovely bride, Amy. Amy had a very specific brief for her wedding day, she wanted to feel like a Russian ballerina. So I designed a dress with ankle length layers in lightweight tulle. This style was popular in the 1950’s, it has elegant vintage style...
I made these each of these custom bridesmaid dress in Surrey. Eleanor’s five bridesmaids all wore the same style in a mix and matched range of four colours. I used rose pink, pale pink, ivory and gold to create a pretty and spring like colour scheme. Official Wedding pictures by Sebastian Lomas The style was...
For this Marie Antoinette wedding dress photoshoot, we took inspiration from the aesthetic of Bridgeton. I think we ended up with something slightly different, but equally wonderful, don’t you think? Our colour scheme was pastels; blush, pinks, coral, creamy ivory and hints of baby blue and gold. We wanted to evoke something romantic and ethereal...
Kate needed a bespoke wedding dress for her wedding in Horsham. She commissioned a soft floaty gown in ivory silk satin and silk georgette with touches of Nottingham lace. I made her dress with a simple bias-cut skirt in satin with the georgette as an overlay. Above the high waistline the bodice I designed a...
Safiya commissioned a bespoke bias cut wedding dress made up in white silk satin. The skirt was bias cut and cut slim to the hips but with more fullness at the hem and a medium length train. The backless bodice featured cross-over straps with chain embroidery. Official Wedding pictures by Indigo Images Original design sketch...
My spouse and I booked a non-binary wedding couple photoshoot for our 14th wedding anniversary celebration. We were married in 2007 we had many happy years together as husband and wife. But in 2021 my spouse realised they were non-binary/trans. The person I had married as a man discovered their female inner self during Covid...
This wedding Dress for a military wedding was made from layers of silk satin, chiffon and delicate beaded lace. I added real button and loops to close the back. I made two ribbon sashes for Emily so she could change the colours: ‘sand’ and ‘royal purple’ to wear for different parts of her day. Official...
This was the first styled shoot I ever organised – but certainly not the last. I live on the border between Sussex and Surrey and as a wedding dress designer, it only made sense that I gathered together some local wedding suppliers, chose a stunning location, made some dresses and had some fun! Hence this...

Katrina came to me looking for a wedding dress fit for the English Summer. She wanted a beautiful hand painted wedding dress with flowers in a mix of colours (but not pink). We designed the perfect canvas, a bespoke wedding dress in layered white taffeta and silk organza. We started with a base of some...

"The dress was a hit!! Thank you so much for making my day perfect!"
Beautiful words from a beautiful bride.
Madison wanted something extra special for her wedding day, so I designed, made and dip-dyed this stunning gown for her.
I`m so grateful to Madison, since she doesn`t live in the UK, we couldn`t do fittings. So she had to really trust me with this. I`m so glad she did 🥰
I love the bouquet, with the sunflowers and roses to match the some of the colours of the gradient.
"Say yes to heaven, say yes to me" 🤍
This wedding dress is so heart-achingly romantic. The layers upon layers of fluffy tulle, the white roses encircled by trailing lace and those deep, vibrant colours.
Bold. Beautiful. Completely unique and completely bespoke. Perfect for an alternative bride looking for couture colour.

Manifesting... 💞
This is what happened back in November at the South East Regional award ceremony for The Wedding Industry Awards. I won best in my category for "best wedding dressmaker".
🤞🤞🤞 And I`m just hoping it happens again on Wednesday night when I`m in Liverpool for the National ceremony!
But either way I`m a winner already both in the south east and every time I see a bride`s smile in her finished bespoke dress. 🥰🥰🥰

I`m so happy Ella chose me to elevate her already lovely @catherine__deane bridal skirt from @the_little_bridal_boutique.
For this subtle dip dye, I used a wet dye technique, instead of my usual spray approach. The two colours blended so beautifully together 💛🧡 I think the skirt looks like the petals of a flower, but I can`t put my finger on which one.

I loved adding a creamy pale yellow and sorbet orange dip dye to this beautiful silk skirt, by @catherine__deane (via @the_little_bridal_boutique).
Aren`t these colours so lovely?
I`ll be posting the beautiful photos the bride sent me of this wedding dress in action soon!
