Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care
In hope that St. Nicholas soon would be there

On his way to the children, an idea came into his head
So he dropped into Whittlesey to the shop for those getting wed

He landed his sleigh up on the rooftop and jumped down the chimney
To take a look in the shop

He sprinkled some magic dust over the 'off the peg' rail
And changed all the prices like you would in a sale

The prices then read from just £299.00 and he smiled to himself knowing all would be fine
The Glass Slipper brides have no reason to worry, but at these crazy prices, they really must hurry

He sprang back to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle, and away they all flew like the down on a thistle
But I heard him exclaim,'ere he drove out of sight.'Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good-night'

Saturday 21st Dec no appointment necessary. Just drop in!

THE WEDDING VEIL.

With its origins in ancient Rome and Greece, the history of the veil is complex.

In ancient times, brides wore a veil to protect themselves from evil spirits that might try and harm their marriage.

Over time, veils became a symbol of a brides modesty and purity.

Let's talk about destination weddings!

Destination weddings are a popular choice for couples seeking a unique, memorable experience with an intimate, holiday-like vibe for themselves and their guests often at a beautiful and exotic location.

Choosing the perfect wedding gown for a destination wedding involves finding a style that balances elegance with practicality, especially if the celebration is in a warmer climate.

At The Glass Slipper, we have a beautiful range of elegant and lightweight gowns, which have been carefully chosen with destination weddings in mind.

Who knew!!

The first records of the word Friday come from before 1000. It comes from the Old English Frīgedæg, meaning “Freya's day.” In Latin, the name for the day we call Friday is dies Veneris, meaning “Venus's day,” referring to the Roman goddess of love.

Did you know that we also offer a bridal dressing service?

Travel to your venue.
Final steam of the dress.
Dress the bride and offer additional support to the bridal team.
Once dressed, arrange the gown for the photographer to capture the perfect pictures before the ceremony.
Take the stress away from the bride, mothers and bridesmaids.

This is what our beautiful bride, the now Mrs Walden said about her experience.

"I would highly recommend the dressing service on the day, it really took the pressure off me and the bridesmaids, and to have such an amazing person to be part of my morning and preparing me for the best moments of my life. From the first dress fitting, to saying yes to the dress, to the main event. Marie has made me feel like the only bride in the world.

I would recommend this to any future brides.

A huge thank you to Marie, from the Glass Slipper. I would do it all again, just to have Marie be part of my journey!!!
