Remembering Ellen and Will's Beautiful October Wedding 🌧️💍 | A delightful throwback to the past, where rain couldn't dim the love between this lovely couple. It brings a smile to my face knowing I had the privilege of altering Ellen's dress, making it truly one-of-a-kind for their special day. Wishing Ellen and Will a lifetime of happiness together, rain or shine! ☔️❤️

My beautiful bride wore a princess dress with many soft layers. Such a romantic look. I've shortened the gown, added bustles and dancing loops. Sleeves were also added for a little more modesty.

Why is it important that the waist of your wedding dress is tailored to you perfectly? It's not only about the look... I explain more in my new blog at https://www.theweddingdresssurgery.com/blog

I frequently receive anxious calls and emails asking if there is anything I could do about a wedding dress that's too small. There are various techniques to help with this problem. The image above shows an excellent example of a problem and a solution. This dress needed dramatic changes, and the outcome is wonderful. The back of the top was replaced entirely by new mesh fabric, while the skirt was extended by inserting panels on either side of the zip in the middle.⁠
I love seeing my clients smile; notice how the bride's posture has changed in the before and after photos. When she realised her dress looked fantastic and fit properly, her entire demeanour shifted, and she became relaxed and confident!
