Bespoke handmade keepsake garter 🤍
For this garter I used UK sourced Nottingham Lace and satin ribbon as a base. Then using remnant fabric from the hem alteration, created a unique embellishment mirroring the embossed leaf pattern design of the wedding dress fabric.
Then it was finished off with a blue bow for luck 🩵
Presented in a keepsake box to be treasured forever ✨

Just look at this dreamy super soft pure silk on this Catherine Deane wedding dress 🤍
Extremely fine and delicate, this fabric needs to be handled with such care.
Only an experienced bridal seamstress will have the skills and confidence to handle such fabrics.
This dress required a bodice alteration, bust darts and hem layers shortening 🪡💫🪄

Wedding scruchies made from remnant fabric created after shortening the hem layers. A perfect keepsake and creative way to use up left over scraps of fabric. These are going to be gifts for the bridesmaids 🤍

I’m working on this gorgeous St Patrick gown with its incredible open back design 🤍
Top tip for brides with a backless or low back dress – do not wear a bra on the morning of the wedding as it can leave marks and indentations on your skin. Also, if you’re planning any trips or holidays on the lead up to your wedding, be careful of tan lines.

Alterations complete on this stunning antique pink Evie Young gown 💫
Once you’ve chosen your wedding dress, quite often you have multiple colour options.
Anything from subtle differences in pale ivories and rich creams to champagne, mocha, blush and more intense pinks.
Colour is just as important as fabrics and design when choosing a wedding dress 🤍

Love the lace appliqué detailing on this Signature gown by 🤍
Lace dresses with their intricate designs and delicate detailing require extra time and expertise during the alterations process.
A specialist bridal seamstress will know exactly how to make your dress fit you perfectly without compromising the original look 🤍

A full, long train is a stunning feature on a wedding gown and is perfect for creating those fabulous wedding photos.
But what about when you want to get on that dance floor and party the night away with all your favourite people?
Adding a “bustle” to your wedding dress will transform it for your evening reception and party.
An experienced bridal seamstress will talk you through your bustling options and give you expert advice taking into consideration your dress design, your individual wedding evening plans along with your own personal preferences and find the best option for you.
A small little alteration that can make a big difference!
Scroll through to see the train before and after bustling 💫

Embrace the winter wedding photo opportunities. Love this snowy wedding photo from Abigail and Harry’s winter wedding 🤍
And it’s always wonderful to receive a Thankyou card in the post.
“I can’t thank you enough for all your hard work. Thank you again for your kindness and help” 🤍

Loving the beautiful 3D flower detailing on this Viva Bride by dress 🤍
Work in progress today; bodice alteration requires all the flowers and lace appliqués to be carefully removed before the bodice is taken in and internal corset and boning adjusted and replaced. Then all the flower and lace detailing is repositioned and handsewn back in place 🪡🤍
