Beautiful Summer Wedding in East Lothian

Spread the love

This wedding was a record for us on so many levels. This, I am sure, is the most dresses we have ever made to one event.

Steph contacted us originally as she was a friend of a friend from more than one side, she needed a dress for her summer wedding.. so nice. She had very sophisticated ideas of how she wanted to look on her big day. She tried pretty much all our sample dresses.. and needless to say.. looked gorgeous in them all.

So, we started to work on her ideas, the details, fabrics and feel she wanted. Steph settled for a corded, sequined and beaded lace top with a very low back and straps. She then had a very full skirt with build in train in sand washed silk crepe.

Steph also had a cathedral length 2 tier length veil to go with the dress. She then started to enquire about bridesmaids dresses, she settled for a dusky lilac chiffon Changeant and a godet insert at the back.
Then her mum came along to get her outfit made, Steph’s mum had picked up gorgeous silk brocade from Joel & Son Fabrics, London, it was 2 different patterns the finer for the dress and the bigger daisy pattern for the coat. The coat outfit was lined and finely edged with a gorgeous paisley patterned silk lining.

Bride, bridesmaid and mother of the bride all wore headdresses from Rene Walrus. Hair was by Dickson Reid Hairdressers by Maria Carmela Chierdhia, both close friends of the bride.

Stephs gorgeous ring was from Macintyres of Edinburgh

Fiona Cumming Floristry made the floral decoration, again a family friend, they were so lovely and completed the light sophisticated summery feel. and there was beautiful stationary from White Blossom Designs.

And then a couple of guests and close family friends came to get their outfits done… it was an absolute honour to be invited.. (so i guess my dress had to be made too).

The ceremony was held in St Michael’s Church Eskbank and the wedding in a marquee supplied by best Best Intent Marquees, at Stephs parents house. The food was by Ginger Snap

The entire wedding was so so beautiful and the entire Boyd family was so nice generous and kind to deal with.
