When my stunning bride Theresa came to discuss her dress details with me, she explained her wedding was being held in Emerald in November so it was really important for her dress to be as light and breathable as possible (and of course still beautiful)! She chose an embossed hammered organza which was perfect for a light weight easy to wear gown, whilst still being classically elegant and modern.

Tess .henry_ looked stunning in her silk satin, bias cut gown at her recent wedding at St George. Tess travelled all the way from Tamworth to visit me for fittings, (plenty of time to mull over design elements during that drive)! Like many brides she had a number of pictures to show me at her initial consultation, and then at each visit we worked together to finesse the style to suit her perfectly!

Excited to have these fab new photos to post from one of my August brides Oriane Oriane came to see me hoping to have a skirt made which would compliment the beautiful lace top she had purchased from whilst visiting family in Paris. I was super pleased to make her an elegant bias cut silk crepe skirt which was perfect for her Stradbroke Island wedding.

Roxanne another of my fantastic September brides, travelled all the way from Mt Isa to have her dress made by me. Like many brides her initial design ideas were vastly different to the beautiful gown she wore. We worked together through a number of options and the stunning final result suited her perfectly (including pockets of course and a detachable collar)!

I make wedding dresses for many brides from country Queensland and NSW but also from interstate. Sophia now hailing from Melbourne, was one such girl; but of course she was a born and bred Brissy girl originally! I began work on her dream dress last December and we scheduled her fittings to coincide with visits to see family and friends. Italian duchess satin cut in a panelled fitted bodice, and a sleek skirt and train with a small front drape, gave her the timeless elegant and very stunning look she wanted!

Beth’s dress vision changed over the time from when she first engaged me last year. Like many who originally envisioned an embellished gown she decided a less “busy” dress was more her style. A fitted bodice with ruched overlay, arm drape, and a full cut bias skirt and train, in heavy silk satin gave her the classic, elegant look she wanted and suited her perfectly!

Lily had lots of inspo pictures of different multi puff sleeves; the question was whether to have some sort of bead/embellishment on the puff, or use a pleated tulle and how many puffs? The answer came one day when she saw a pearl beaded veil I had at work! A simple silhouette in Silk crepe for the dress, and pearl beaded tulle supported by layers of tulle and silk organza made for a simply stunning result!

Time has got away from me lately so I have lots of posts to catch up!
Fay was one of my lovely brides from earlier this year. Her brief was “simple elegant and easy to wear”. A fitted bodice with twist overly, bishop sleeves in a textured organza and of course ostrich feather trim on the hem exactly nailed her stunning look!

Jaqueline .t.speaks wanted a classic elegant gown which would reflect the style of wedding she and her fiancé were planning at beautiful Customs House in April this year. Silk Mikado in a full skirt with ruched off the shoulder collar fitted that brief! However she also wanted it to have a touch of “glam”, and so a leg split, with layers of ostrich feathers topped with a silver beaded trim around the hem did just that!

When Tayla and her lovely mum Margaret came to see me to discuss her wedding dress, she was really keen to have a style which acknowledged her Grandmother’s dress, but was still modern. She also wanted to dance the night away! Italian Duchess satin, in a full pleated 3/4 length skirt, a bodice with a tulle V insert, a ruched tulle jacket, and a short Pearl veil gave her the modern take on 50’s vintage she was looking for. The result was classic elegance at its best!

Arielle was one of my beautiful March brides this year when she married her wife (who also looked fab but I can’t claim any credit for her dress!) Arielle chose a stunning 3D flower beaded tulle to create her fabulous gown. I had to include a photo of the bridal party to show the gorgeous mix of styles and colours!

Caitlin and my journey began around 10 months ago as she was adamant she didn’t want a plain off-white wedding dress and showed me her inspo pictures of coloured printed dresses. I knew I would need to get the fabric especially made, and thanks to the fantastic team I was able to bring to life her stunning vision of her wedding dress, with its gorgeous whimsical pattern. Caitlin chose an ivory silk /viscose for me to make her fun reception dress to dance the night away!

Sophie had a clear idea of what she wanted to wear for her March wedding this year. A layered full tulle skirt, lightly ruched bodice, oh and it had to be pink! I carefully dyed each layer a slightly different colour of pink, so it would add the interest and depth of colour without being stark or too bright! The colour perfectly complimented Sophie’s pale complexion and added to her romantic look!

25/01/2024

With Maddi’s home outside Injune and the wedding being held on her family’s property outside Tamworth, it was a long drive to visit me for dress fittings! She knew she wanted something which felt uniquely “her”, but what exactly did that look like? Like many brides she was torn between a full skirt and a slim sleek skirt. In the end she had both! With not a lot of time, (she and Tom had been living in the US), many phone calls and a few bodice style changes and a few skirt silhouette changes we worked together to create her perfect dress; midriff bodice with full silk organza skirt for that “bridal feel”, and a hidden sleek, slim fit silk satin skirt underneath revealed for the party after!
