What about your business are you most proud of?
Our warmth and caring towards all of our customers.
What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?
Do what's right for you - not everyone else. It's supposed to be YOUR day after all! :-)
What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?
My seamstress quite often hides precious items in the brides dress so that she can feel like she has a lost loved one with her. My favourite was a lost ones hanky that was sewn into the shape of a Robin on the brides train. It sounds a bit strange but it was absolutely beautiful!
Describe your typical process with a couple.
We always do an initial consultation with the bride and her entourage at the start of every appointment. It allows us to get to know the bride, her like and dislikes and also helps them get to know us more too. It's a great way to break the ice and to start building a relationship that we hope will last until after the wedding at least! (Although some of our brides still pop in for a coffee now, years after their wedding - which we love!)
What do you love most about your job?
The stories the brides share with me!
What is your favourite style of wedding dress?
Any that makes you feel beautiful of course!
What is the best way to incorporate "Something Blue" into the wedding outfit?
We sew a blue thread into the lining if a bride wants us to, of if they want something even more traditional, we advise on a garter with a blue element in it.
What is your favourite wedding dress of all time?
Elevated Jasmine from the 2021 Disney Fairy Tale Weddings Collection - it's breathtaking and looks beautiful on everyone who puts it on regardless of their shape, size, colour, age, everything! It's just perfect!
