I was wondering why it had been so long since I blogged. Then I realised I’ve been busy being ‘Mum’ and we’ve had COVID to contend with which has, unfortunately, turned wedding plans for so many on their head. Eleaner was one of my COVID brides, not that would you know, she held her head high and carried on with her wedding plans. A postponement and then their wedding went…
Chandre spotted one of our designs at a bridal fair quite some time before her wedding, she knew she had to come and see us for her wedding dress. She wanted something different and had even contemplated a dark wedding dress before coming across our ‘Lorilee’ bias cut silk wedding dress. We changed the colour of the design to create something truly unique, Chandre opted for a mushroom coloured heavy…
Oh I love a country wedding and I love it even more when a bride opts for a coloured wedding dress!! Hannah and Jona wed at her parents property in Mt Barker. It ended up being a rainy day, not uncommon down south in October but these two lovebirds didn’t let the rain stop them from having a magical wedding day! We worked with Hannah to create a coloured wedding…
Ellen visited a few traditional bridal stores before going down the handmade wedding dress path. She was looking for an elegant, very soft lace wedding dress with a full skirt and long lace sleeves. The gowns she looked at ‘off-the-rack’ had lots of extras that to be removed or adjusted to get the look she was after. After a chat in our studio, we sketched up a design that was…
Katrina is a very talented lady and had sketched up what she had in mind for her wedding dress. She actually brought these sketches with her to our first meeting and I was so impressed. We went through all the elements she was after and she was open to my design input, together we designed a wedding dress with sleeves that was modern with a hint of vintage. Katrina opted…
It’s such an honour when a dear friend asks me to make their wedding dress and Zara was no exception. We had a lot of fun at each fitting, with her Mum always in tow, it was a really special time. Zara knew she want a fitted design that would suit the Bali climate. We came up with a fitted v-neck bodice with an illusion lace back and a fitted…
Steph had lusted after tulle from a very young age so there was no surprise that she wanted a tulle wedding dress and not just a little bit of tulle, A LOT of tulle!! Of course, this was fine by me! A tea length wedding dress with a tulle skirt is the epitome of FUN. Steph & Dan opted for a small, intimate wedding at Guildford Town Hall followed by…
I think for the most part, we’ve forgotten what a styled shoot is about as wedding vendors quickly became obsessed with being featured on the next best wedding blog. When I started my wedding business 8 years ago, Hello May didn’t even exist. Wedding blogs were a relatively new thing and Pinterest was on the verge of discovery. There are in fact so many other benefits to a styled shoot…
Steph, like most brides I meet with, had a rough idea of what she was after and was unable to find her dream lace and silk wedding dress in a traditional bridal shop so had started the unknown process of meeting with a bridal designer. I always ask brides where they are getting married to get a feel for their wedding. Steph and Ben were planning a wedding with a large guest…
I’ve been dying to share Tanika & Mike’s wedding, it was a stunning Autumn wedding set on a rural property just outside of Perth. Tanika’s bridal party wore black and boy, oh boy, did they look good! It worked perfectly in contrast with her classic crepe wedding dress. Tanika keep the accessories minimal, with statement earrings for herself and bold sunflowers for the bouquets. Whilst her styling was classic and minimal, those little pops of colour were…
