✨Some recent snippets behind the scenes at the studio✨

Including some sneak peeks of lovely bride Amy’s bespoke wedding dress for her French wedding last month! I can’t wait to share photos of her finished look soon. Thanks to Amy’s lovely Mum Julia for taking some photos during our toile fitting where we were perfecting the fit of Amy’s dress and tweaking the design. A little insight in to the process if you choose to go for a bespoke bridal design.

I often forget to take photos of my work in progress as I get so wrapped up in what I’m doing, and probably don’t think of it as photo worthy until it’s complete, but it really is nice to look back on the process of how things came to be the final product.

Let me know if you like seeing these working shots in the studio and I’ll try to take more behind the scenes snaps to share in the future. 🤍

🌿Blume🌿

The subtle floral pattern of the Blume gown, with its romantic billowing sleeves is the perfect partner to a Bow.

Excited to share some more from this beautiful shoot soon, it’s giving Bridgerton vibes and I am here for it!

A love note from Lily 💌

I can’t explain how much it means to me to read such happy feedback from my brides. I pour so much of myself into each dress, my time and energy, my creativity and craftsmanship. Each bride feels like a dear friend by the time their wedding day comes around. Through fittings filled with excitement, tears and laughter, I have the honour of getting to know you and your loved ones. So by the time the dress goes out the door it’s so much more to me than just an outfit. It’s YOUR dress.

I can say with full honestly that as each wedding date rolls around, my brides are on my mind the entire day, I’m clock watching to figure out if you’ve walked down the aisle yet. I am so INVESTED in you and your day.

I’m in the throes of blogging Lily and Jacks incredible autumnal wedding, and I’m utterly spoilt for choice with their gallery of images by the talented ✨

If you’re interested in learning more about the process of collaborating on a bespoke design, head to the contact form on my website and get in touch, I’d love to hear from you. 🫶

Now this is a gallery that brought tears to my eyes (bravo 🥂) Helen and Edds wedding looked completely magical, the love & connection they clearly have together is heart melting!

Helen’s bespoke bridal journey is now up on the blog, and this outfit was a dream to create for Helen. She came to me with ideas of what she wanted and together we came up with a design that blended all of her favourite elements and features into one dress.

To see more of their gorgeous Cornish wedding day and behind the scenes photos from our fittings along with sketches and Helen’s words on her experience, head to the link 🫶

Let’s talk about Cora. New for 2024. If simple and sleek is your vibe, she’s the perfect blank canvas to style as you please. With a subtle 90s edge, a low cut square neckline and spaghetti straps, this lustrous (eco friendly 🌿) satin skims over the body beautifully.

Cora pairs perfectly with the Cleo sleeve, but can also work as the perfect base dress to layer with a lace top or an organza over dress…let your imagination roam and get in touch to discuss ideas for your perfect wedding look.

I wander who will be the first bride to head down the aisle in the Cora ✨🤍🌞

The new collection is officially live on the website! Focusing on luxurious fabrics, minimal silhouettes which let the textiles do the talking and sleek lines paired with volume and print. Detachable elements are a key feature for me, I’ve always been an advocate of multiple bridal looks stemming from one base, encompassing all of your bridal personalities throughout your day.

To be some of the first brides to see the new pieces get in touch 💌 I’ve got limited availability for bespoke bridal dresses and would love to hear all about your wedding ✨

✨ Happy New Year ✨

I’ve had a refreshing break and organised my brain a little over the past month. Heading into 2024 on a high and with such big dreams for the year ahead. Feeling entirely thankful for all that 2023 brought and taught me. It was a year of transformation.

These past few weeks have been spent furiously sewing and creating to get these new pieces ready for our winter shoot. This is something I had on my list of goals this year, that I genuinely wasn’t sure I would be able to achieve amongst the roller coaster of a new baby in 2023. So it feels like a big weight off my shoulders to say we did it, and Yesterday was a dream with the most wonderful team in the most beautiful surroundings. I can’t wait to share these new pieces with you, I hope you love them 🤍🥂✨

It’s always incredibly heartwarming looking through the wedding gallery of one of my brides and seeing how their day played out, but extra specially so when I know the couple personally and was lucky enough to be a guest on their day.

I’m completely spoilt for choice with Abi and Dan’s gallery captured so beautifully by it was a challenge to pick just ten images to share Abigail’s bespoke bridal dress, so I’ll definitely be sharing more from this magical day (including the mother daughter matching moment with little Effies flower girl dress, made in the same lace 🥹)

The adoration this pair have for each other is so plainly visible on both of their faces throughout the entire day, it’s such a pleasure to behold.

Their summer wedding held will be on the blog later this week, featuring behind the scenes of our fittings and sketches of Abigail’s bespoke wedding dress.

Oh and not forgetting a moment of appreciation for the epic dried floral crown Abi wore, made by the lovely 🌻
