After months of working with a bride designing, fitting and making up her dress, it can be rather sad to see it walk out the door. And her too of course! My dresses are like children really and no one likes to see their kids leave home when they've just gotten used to them! So it's a very nice thing when I get sent some photos of the dress on it's big day. I have been quite astonished sometimes to notice how fetching a bride actually is when she's all polished and dressed to kill! Like most of us, she usually comes in wearing jeans, hair hardly done or not at all and not much make up to speak of...... I could almost be describing myself then!
Anyway, what I mean is that I love receiving photos of my bride in her dress looking fabulous, especially more fabulous than I expect. Throughout all the fittings it's me putting the effort in and finally on the day, the bride then gets to put in her side of the bargain. I'm rarely disappointed and occasionally thrilled!
This is my lovely bride. Her dress is made from Silk satin underneath layers of French silk tulle and French Lace. Perfect for the beach. Soft, bohemian, glamourous and a little sexy. The colours are antique blush satin, bleached sand silk tulle and the lace has a metallic gold thread running through it. It has lots of lovely movement in the fabric and is quite swishy when you walk.
I also think her hair is rather fab. I'll have to find out who did it and post that information. Her photographer was Bradley Patrick from Sugarlove
I love a glamourous girl! What a great muse!
