Summer Vision












As we try look past the winter rain to the spring and summer we are so excited to see back, it is however a very exciting time for our summer brides. If you haven't chosen and ordered your dress already now is the time to do it in order to fit in all your fittings before your big day.

We have put together a little summer bride guide for you of what dress we'd pick, what bridesmaids dresses compliment it, hair, shoes, underwear and flowers to create a perfect summer wedding vision.

We have chosen the elegant and utterly dreamy gown, Esme from the Summer's Eve Collection by Naomi Neoh. A beautiful gown full of movement and poise, this is also a new colour to Naomi Neoh gowns as it's in Oyster. A pale Oyster gown in chantilly lace with slim plisse silk chiffon skirt and a soft silk chiffon sash in a beautiful pale peach colour. The colours and pale blush/peach colour theme of the dress inspired this to be our theme. 

Our beautiful fairytale-like bridesmaids dress is by Maid To Measure and it called Georgina. A stunning one shoulder dress in a pale blush shows off the 2 shoulder wedding dress perfectly and makes the sash of Esme pop. 

Our shoes for our summer vision are by Rachel Simpson called Marilyn with a silk bow that falls effortlessly over the shoe. A delicate detail for a delicate dress.

Our chosen underwear is by Shell Belle, a wonderful luxury lingerie brand we stock in store and the briefs are Gatsby in pink in silk satin. With bow details, embroidered front and cute patterned behind these are sweet but also beautiful for the big day. 

Our selected hair style from our pinterest board would be an up do with peonies and sage coloured leaves, keeping the coloured watered down and neutral to assure no colour over powers the dress and leaves a floaty romantic atmosphere around the gown. This ties in perfectly to our chosen bouquet of pale pink peonies, little cream roses and babies breath, a wild flower country garden bouquet to compliment Esme in every way.

A Countryside Dream For Hayley & Jonathan





















What can we say about this absolutely beautiful bride? We cannot get enough of her wedding photos of her in her Naomi Neoh gown, Lily. A stunning ethereal full length dress with a soft blush lining, full skirt of silk that floats effortlessly in the summer breeze captured perfectly in her photos. 

The drop waist shows off her incredible figure and fits her like she was born to wear Lily. The sweetheart neckline of Lily is the perfect romantic shape of Hayley and she chose to wear a lace boat neckline jacket over the top of the dress which makes one dress look like two. Lily is all silk chiffon & french lace with flower detail on the waist to tie in perfectly with her countryside garden venue in Devon and beautiful blossoming bouquet. As you can see by her breath taking photos Lily fitted perfectly into her theme of the romantic rustic Devon countryside wedding.

We loved all her little details she created for her wedding day including her stunning cake made by her super talented mum, these little personal details clearly made her day even more special and close to her heart. Even the groomsmen were dressed to compliment the bride in their navy suits instead of black, making everyone bright, cheerful and full of summer spirit. Her bouquet and flowers were created by Peamore Flora and we are obsessed with how beautiful they are and how well it compliment her dress and her bridesmaids. Even Hayley's hair had little flowers delicately placed around in pale pinks and whites which made her look like a fairytale bride.

Everything entwined effortlessly, creating the perfect country wedding vision. Hayley's day looked truly magical from beginning to end. 

Once again we wish Hayley & Jonathan all the happiness in the world and huge congratulations on their fabulous day.

Christmas Angels
























With Christmas nearly upon us we have gone all out in our boutique to embrace it and give our dresses an angelic touch with festive spirit!

Our Christmas angels are 3 of our favourite Claire Pettibone dresses which scream beauty, elegance, class and imagination. All the things you want your wedding dress to be in order to make your day memorable to all who attend.

Our first angel is Prairie Rose; a long sleeved ivory dress with beaded organza flowers appliqued on lace with keyhole back. A beautifully detailed dress with magical movement in the flowers, an absolute dream.

Our middle fallen angel is of course the show stopping Cheyenne. Our black beauty is a sleeveless floral lace high necked gown with nude lining. We added a floral corsage with crimson ribbons draping down her train for this festive season, adding event more of a bang to the dress.

Our third angel is the golden Dakota, a champagne number for those brides who want something a little different but still embracing the ivory tradition with scalloped border lace and Guipure lace straps. A low back and scalloped edge train that will make you feel incredible on your big day.

Our golden, black and ivory angels are accompanied by their bridesmaids in deep red and purple dresses by Dessy. All keeping the Christmassy tones and tying in with our corsages.


Which angel will you be ?!

Elie Saab Haute Couture













Elie Saab is one of the most beautiful and flawless designers when it comes to dresses and it's about time it was shared with our readers who haven't seen or heard of it all before. A perfect way to get inspired on a sunday and too see some beyond magical gowns. This is the collection from Fall/Winter 15/16 and how incredible are they?

The stunning attention to detail is something we will always be crushing over and not even to mention how, no matter which you chose, all eyes would be on you! The ultimate head turners and a gown that will forever be remembered on guests minds. The Haute Couture Collection is elegant, chic and mysterious all in one...maybe that's why we love it. The element of darkness is completely enchanting. 

We are seeing blues coming through in other wedding dress designers, some might think it's untraditional and would never even consider it, but we are ALL for blues and these examples are pure perfection!
