As 2025 comes to an end, I just want to say thank you for choosing Michaela Couture and for trusting me with such special moments in your life.

I also want to thank the amazing dress shop “I Do” Frocks, and the talented photographers who capture my work so beautifully.

Cheers to a wonderful year, and here’s to many more beautiful creations in the year to come!

Happy New Year!

The perfect finale of 2025, the amazing Sarah!

​It has been such a joy working with Sarah and her mum. Every fitting was filled with fun and laughter, making the process of perfecting this stunning winter gown an absolute dream.

​We did a total transformation to ensure she felt supported and stylish bringing her vision to life.
Structure: Closed the deep V-opening for better shaping and support.
The Flow: Hemmed six layers of fabric and added a dreamy bustle.
Custom Design: We reimagined the original bolero into sleek, fitted sleeves and used hem off-cuts to create detachable off-the-shoulder straps.
​The best part? Mum used the leftover beads to decorate her outfit as well! A beautiful way to tie the two looks together.

Congratulations, Sarah and Aaron.

I had the honour of doing alterations on this amazing wedding dress from London Bride, which was a great challenge to tackle. We shortened the length 7", removed one layer of petticoat, added bustle, tightened straps, curved in bust, replaced the zip and button loops. What a perfection!
Congratulations Harriet and Tom.

thank you for sharing those amazing pictures!

We’re in the midst of bridal season, and my diary is filling up fast - I’m already having to turn people away.

Get in touch as soon as you order your dress - even if it won’t arrive for a few months. We can book a no-obligation consultation in advance, giving us both plenty of time to plan your fittings. This is especially important for weddings between May and August 2026, when my schedule gets especially busy.

While I do my best to stay organised, unexpected changes do come up - from last-minute design tweaks to sizing adjustments - which sometimes means I need to reschedule less urgent appointments. Your dress will always be ready on time, but a little flexibility helps ensure everything runs smoothly.

The earlier you book, the more options we’ll have! 📆💖
