Make a Booking“I love to express my creativity to the customer and get them as excited about the process as I am. We usually talk to people who are maybe feeling anxious or stressed or unsure and we just want to change that to excitement. Making someone’s unique dress is incredibly rewarding, and I love seeing all of the photos and kind words sent to me afterwards too!”

The Process
Each new gown starts with an initial friendly consultation where we do a process walkthrough and answer your questions. We welcome all of your ideas and inspiration, and just as many of our customers trust us to make our own creative decisions. We can’t copy a dress, but influence is often all we need.
We then move forward with various rounds of design reviews and early fittings. The gown then gets made in earnest and prepared for collection with a final fitting.
The process will generally take a minimum of six months, with at least 4 one hour fitting sessions - unfortunately there is no part of the process that can be rushed, but the wait is always worth it. Each gown is priced independently and will depend on factors such as materials used, complexity of design, and some special requests.
Prices typically start from £450.
