I’m so gutted 😭 but Facebook won’t amend my status on our old page and as a result I’ve had no option but to create another page, which has lost over 4,000 followers.
Every follower means so much and I’d really appreciate your continued support. Plus you’ll get to see some amazing dresses, suits etc. ❤️❤️

I’ve been involved with some amazing photoshoots with Sarah Bainbridge. So happy for her ❤️❤️.
10/10/2023
We have made the decision to change our opening hours, starting next week.
We will be closed on Sundays and Mondays.
However, we always try to accommodate anyone’s request for appointments, whether it be in an evening, or to open up especially on days off, as we understand that it can be difficult getting all wedding parties together.
We are also often out and about during these days, attending wedding fairs, or contributing to wedding photoshoots with local suppliers.
Our customers, all past, present and future, are extremely important to us, and we are always available to message on social media, day or night.

Tammy was our amazing bride and I certainly plan on booking my holidays with her in the future ❤️.
