Louise, came to see me 8 months before her wedding. She had tried lots and lots of dresses on in shops, and lots of them she liked or liked bits of, but none of them gave her the woauh factor she wanted.
We talked through the things she really liked and the things she really didn’t like in a dress. I then came up with some designs, she picked designs which were a mix of the different styles i had drawn up.
She went for the dress to be made in 3 different fabrics, this allowed us to add a bit of different textures to the dress.
The bodice was made in a rich Silk Duchesses satin, she had an embellished belt which was placed on top of a matte sheer silk Georgette, she had a paneled fish tail skirt on her dress, made in Thai Silk. She had netting under and a net bustle she could take off at night time to minimise the bustle when she was dancing.
We had Louise’s dress well on the way, when she asked us if we could make her bridesmaids dresses too. We were really pleased to be asked as we felt we would complete the look of her wedding. Louise had 4 bridesmaids, all stunning with different colouring. Louise decided for the kingfisher colour, it looks stunning and vibrant on all 4 of them.
Louise had done a lot of the work before her wedding herself, and friends and family had helped out, the ceremony was held in the gardens of Crail House , and the reception held in the village hall. The photographs was
taken by a friend and the flowers were by The Ladybirds Florist, St. Andrews
.
Hair was done by a friend and make up was by Dawn from La Belle Beauty Boutique, St. Monans.
We so really enjoyed working with Louise and her 4 bridesmaids.
