Dear all brides to be!

Dear all brides to be, welcome to my bridal world where you don't need to stress the dress.

 
After working with brides for the last 2 years, I have realised that there is a whole new level of apprehension which comes with finding your perfect dress. One that I had only caught a glimpse of previously. Whether it is to do with what to wear to an appointment, what styles to try or even who to bring or where to go, all of these things can feel like mounting dread when you have so much else to navigate and think about when planning a wedding. 


With this, I have decided to start a blog to give insight and potential advice in regard to dress shopping, so when your special day comes, it doesn't need to come with unnecessary pressure. 

I know that this is easier said than done, and when my time comes i'm sure i'll be my own bundle of stress 🤣. But hopefully these blogs will help at least one bride take some tension from one of the most anticipated and intense decisions that will ever surround buying one piece of clothing. If done correctly, they should be a useful insight into the microcosm of wedding dresses, and give the soon to be wife a more confident approach to finding the 'one' (The dress, not the spouse🤣).


Over the coming weeks my bridal blog will focus on where to go, what and who to bring, style and shape, and finally to veil or not to veil (not everyone needs to have a veil ladies).                            


If you guys have any advice or tips, please do leave comments below! Even if there is anything you guys want me to cover or talk about comment below so I can have an insight myself into what interests or worries you when it comes to shopping for that day to remember.

What and Who you should bring dress shopping...

To bring or not to bring, that is the question. Ladies, when it comes around to going to your first appointment, it can be daunting and at times an overwhelming experience. What to wear, who to bring and how many opinions to have with you are all valid and repeatedly asked questions of any bridal stylist. This is where this blog is here to help. First up, what should you wear to your bridal appointments. Now, unlike any other shopping experience you may have had, bridal is unique in that due to the valuable and complex nature of wedding gowns, you will have your own bridal consultant/stylist to dress you. Thus, it is important to first and foremost wear underwear that you feel confident in, and that you are happy to show to a total stranger 🤣. Additionally, like any other outfit, wear colour coordinated attire. Meaning, either nude or white underwear is the way to go.  Secondly, I would absolutely wear a strapless bra, as being open to trying different styles is key to findi

To Veil or Not to Veil?

To veil or not to veil, that is the question that so many brides ask themselves when they go dress shopping. Accessories to go with your gown can be the icing on the cake to an already beautiful ensemble, but it is important to remember that every bride is different, and just because your mum or your auntie or your bridesmaid is saying you should have a veil, it doesn't mean you need to get one! Bridal accessories now come in so many variations that it can be almost as difficult to figure out what to pair with the dress, as it is to find the dress itself. This blog is here to guide you through the different options and give some insight into what one is best for you. The Veil.  Long or Short? Double tier or Single tier? Lace or Plain? Beads or No Beads? The list is practically endless when it comes to the design of the classic veil. It epitomises 'Bridal' and is possibly one of the longest standing wedding traditions out there. In most cases, veils come in 3 distin
