Yesterday we had our final Christmas night out with everyone who has worked with us this year 🥺🥰 I was emotional!

I needed an iconic dress for the moment so went for the Zelda Villanelle Maxi! ⚡️

Thats us officially closed for the Christmas hols - although I’ll be in and out and answering emails throughout the holidays as I tie up all of our loose ends before we pause 💖

In exciting news I’ve accepted a job offer and start on the 6th of January 🥰 Our online store will be open up until January and we are in the process of launching a massive sale on all the fabrics we do have in stock.

The girls are working throughout Jan and Feb to get all final orders shipped, custom orders completed and our bridal clients 👰🏼‍♀️

We are keeping our studio until Feb / March. I’m not sure after that. I just need some time and space and I’m so excited about starting somewhere new.

We still have workshops available every weekend in Jan and Feb and I’m super excited to host them 🙌🏼 so please do book on if you want one last trip to the studio 🥰

If you’ve emailed over the last few weeks since I made the announcement and you’ve not heard back from me I’m so sorry! I will get to the bottom of the emails in the holidays 💖🎄

Have a lovely Christmas everyone and mailing list customers check your inbox for final sale details 💖

Lots of love

In love with our beautiful bride Emma’s black tulle wedding dress and gorgeous Edinburgh city wedding captured perfectly by 📸

We just love brides that do their own thing and when we had our first initial zoom with Emma she was like I want big ruffles, I want it black and we are having pizza and pints 🍺 🍕 our type of wedding!

The biggest thank you ever for this dress has to go to for bringing this design to life and adding beautiful finishing touches! Kat has the most incredible pattern drafting and design skills and is always with me every step of the way on the design process with a deep understanding of fabrics and how they will sit on the body! Thank you to Kat for creating this dream dress!

As we are nearing the final few weeks of the year and with the announcement of our pause from January I wanted to take a moment to say a massive thank you to all of our brides who have trusted us with your creative vision for your wedding day! Designing bridal jackets and dresses has to be one of the greatest privileges so THANK YOU to our
