To celebrate mother’s day, I thought we would look back on some of our most recent Mother of the Bride outfits! As the second most important lady of the day, it’s always an honour to make something for the mother of the bride. These are some of our amazing mother of the bride dresses that we have created recently. They all look wonderful! Margaret had a lovely light ivory dress with a lace overlay on the bodice, which had a sweetheart neckline. The lace overlay created a high neck with beautiful lace edgings. The sleeves were three-quarter length, and the…

Nature Inspired Wedding
Beautiful bohemian style wedding Julia’s beautiful wedding took place in Kilver Court Gardens in Somerset. She was inspired by the idea of a bohemian nature inspired wedding, with nothing too commercialised. Here are a few words from Julia about her wedding day: “I was attracted by the idea of a rustic bohemian wedding with nothing too commercialised. It had to be down to earth and incorporating the things I love; poetry, nature and my love of my family and my Somerset roots. As I wanted the whole day to be personal, small and from the heart, a lot was homemade. My…

That’s exactly what they had, and they chose Lothian Chambers for a lovely simple registry.

Nicaraguan and Scottish Wedding
Beautiful Nicaraguan and Scottish Wedding Natalia had so so many things organised for her absolutely epic Nicaraguan and Scottish 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…
Beautiful Blue Wedding Dress
Beautiful blue dress in silk panels Susan had all the ideas and thoughts about her wedding, but when she came to me, she knew the only thing she had not got organised was her dress. She had been frustrated by the lack of individuality in the dresses available to buy in the traditional shops. Susan’s favourite colour is blue and she suits that colour so so much. It was, therefore, the obvious colour for her wedding dress. Susan chose a blue silk dress in panels, with internal lace up and buttons and loops at the back. She then had a…
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…
