Fiona had a simple yet elegant wedding dress Sometimes, less is more! Especially with dresses such as this. Fiona’s dress was wonderfully simple. The dress had lovely clean lines, with a fitted and slightly structured bodice and a loosely fitted and flowing skirt. The bodice had a high neckline and subtle lace overlay to add some texture. The skirt was plain pure silk crepe and with a full length with a train. Therefore, this made for a classic, elegant wedding dress. Around the waist, there was a beaded embellished belt which added a little extra sparkle. Fiona also wore a cathedral length…

New York Wedding in Guipure Lace
It’s always exciting to create dresses for weddings in other destinations, so when Michelle came to us for her dress for her New York wedding, we couldn’t wait to get started! It took two days to travel there in the snow chaos, but Michelle’s New York wedding was wonderful! She had a full-length dress, with a V-shaped neckline and back. The bodice was fitted, with a guipure lace overlay which created three-quarter length sleeves. The skirt of the dress was beautifully simple, it was French silk chiffon, plain and loosely fitting. Therefore, this gave it a soft, flowing feel which looked…
Bespoke Dress for Boat Ceremony
A beautiful bespoke dress for a wedding on the water We thoroughly enjoyed working with Lindsay to create her bespoke wedding dress. it is one of our favourite wedding dresses. Here are some words from her about the dress and about her gorgeous day: “I went to Mette with a vague idea of what I wanted. A Pinterest, a bridesmaid and a friend, and a few hours later had a drawing of a dress that I loved! Mette knew exactly what I wanted. Even before I did! She picked out details that featured several times in the ideas that I…
Borthwick Castle Wedding
Stunning dress at Borthwick Castle Borthwick Castle is a beautiful venue, and so needed a beautiful dress. This beautiful bride came to me with ideas of nude-champagne colours, gold thread, beaded embellishments and silk mesh. This was altogether in a soft layered textured combination for her beautiful wedding dress. We absolutely love the results. I want to show you a little about how the dress was constructed. As it had many layers, we, therefore, had to make the dress in stages. We started with the silk base and then added the beaded lace over the skirt. Then on the dummy,…
Beautiful Purple and Gold Bride

Nicaraguan and Scottish Wedding
Beautiful Nicaraguan and Scottish Wedding Natalia had so so many things organised for her absolutely epic barn wedding in Knockraich of Fintry. However, she didn’t have her dress organised – I think we started with only about 7 weeks to go. Natalia was hugely involved, she really has an eye for design and details. Natalia’s mum is from Nicaragua, the ideas and designs Natalia was going for had a real Latin feel to them. The venue was dressed from top to tail the day before by the bride and groom, their families and anyone who cared to help (which was…
Romantic Wedding dress for Castle Wedding
Edinburgh Castle Wedding I hope I don’t upset anyone by saying that when Natalie came to see me the first time, she already had a dress. She was pressured to buy the dress in a shop and this resulted in her disliking the dress. They said to her, “if you don’t buy today you will not have a dress for your wedding”. After the rushed decision, she decided the dress wasn’t for her. She really wanted to wear something special she had chosen. She came to see me with some lovely stylish photographs she had chosen from Pinterest. We chose a…
