I have been planning for this moment for almost two years, yet the words to express pride and gratitude simply fail me. I am blessed with happiness and joy bestowed upon me by my clients and I will remember each and everyone of you with fondness.
October celebrates my 30th year within the industry and hand on heart I can say with each passing year my passion for bridal couture has intensified and never wavered. Therefore, you may find it ironic that I chose this time to say my farewell.
During the Covid pandemic, I experienced a slower pace of life, appreciating family time for the first time in many years, without the day to day stress and exhaustion of running a lively business. To my surprise, an unexpected opportunity presented itself and I was totally captivated by an exciting and whole new world of creativity which lay before me. So you can imagine the dilemma I felt returning to an intensely busy schedule with three years of weddings condensed into one! I felt it was time for a change and the decision to leave the bridal industry came to me with ease, fulfillment and contentment.
Throughout my career I have been generously blessed with love and support, too many kind souls to mention but I hope you feel the appreciation and love I have for you. It is widely known that a company is only as good as it's employees and it is important to me that Jodie Leigh Wells, Emma Laycock, Charlotte McDonald, and Isobel Burton know that their presence at Joanne Leigh was instrumental in building this small business, but more important your talent, patience and personality have helped secure a reputation that we all can be proud of. Hopefully your time with myself at Joanna Leigh will remain fondly in your memories too.
So what does the future hold for the design studio that Garry and I lovingly restored? As we close the doors for a final time on 31st October we hand over the keys to an equally creative Brigg business with aspirations for expansion, watch this space!
As for myself, I look forward to a more comfortable working/life balance and allowing myself the courtesy of being open to new and creative opportunities.
With great fondness

During my journey to assist the beautiful Vessy family on this momentous day, I drove through the most dramatic thunderstorm I have experienced. Nature sure is powerful but equally as kind and when Mr & Mrs Henshaw become one, the sun shone and the birds sang their sweet tunes.

Long time friends and followers will know how enthusiastically and proudly I would share my bridal journey with Joanna Leigh bride's. Therefore my lack of social media presence over the past couple of years may have seemed out of character and indicated that I have something up my sleeve.... Actually I have and I look forward to sharing my news with you very, very soon❣️

Happy New Year!
As we say goodbye to the passing year, I gather all the memories of my 2022 brides and safety place with in my treasure trove with all the precious souvenirs I have been blessed with. 2023 welcomes the 30th anniversary of my journey which lead to where we are today, I think this year will be an extra special one for the little bridal design studio in North Lincolnshire. ❣️

I had such great expectations to extend my warmest wishes on the Eve of Christmas but sadly failed to find the time. Then today during an appointment, Helen, one of of beautiful Brides-To-Be reminded me that is is never too late to share a little Christmas cheer. I do hope our festive window dressing has brought you some cheer and as Tiny Tim said in my favourite Charles Dickens story "A Merry Christmas to us all; God bless us, everyone!"

Especially for my lovely Amanda, beautiful in every way.

The Queen's Couturier
Like so many of my fellow Britons, I am so proud to say I am British and hold Queen Elizabeth ll in the highest regard for her unwavering dedication throughout her reign.
One of the Queen's favourite designers and couturier was Norman Hartnell who was synonymous with royal glamour and credited for some of the Queen's most memorable and iconic gowns, including her engagement, bridal and coronation gown worn between 1948 and 1953. But did you know that the British designer had a difficult journey before achieving fashion stardom? Yes indeed, with celebrated designers taking the credit for some of his early designs and during the presentation of a collection of his sketches to the great, Gordon Selfridge, he was told to "Go away my boy and learn to draw!" An extract and fascinating read from Norman's autobiography 'Silver and Gold'.

As we come to the end of what has been our busiest period, we look forward to applying some tender loving care to these humble but iconic landmarks of Brigg. They have stood the test of time and deserve a little brightening up.

When Isobel first visited the design studio and we pondered over the endless options of luxurious materials and embroideries, I told her that when the design and creation process was complete, this would all seem like a dream and we will wonder where such a beautiful gown came from....this captivating image sure looks dream like to me.
