Wedding dress, party dress and 5 gorgeously different bridesmaids

Emma had been a guest to one of our weddings last year, she knew she wanted her dress made by us.

Emma was such fun to deal with right from the start, she wanted a slick elegant classic look for her wedding dress, then she told me she wanted a party dress as well for the evening.. then she decided to go for bridesmaids dresses well, with different necklines chosen by her 5 lovely bridesmaids.

For her Wedding dress Emma chose a soft porcelain coloured satin, it was heavily boned and corseted and ruched to one side. She chose a long plain veil for this.

For the evening she went for a satin bodice, with cups and an organza skirt with crystals, the party dress had an exposed zip.

The bridesmaids all had individual neckline, they were made in a gunmetal grey satin with light boning and concealed zips at the back. We had kept all the skirts and the empire line bands the same to keep continuity.
The hair was done by Bespoke Wedding HairRosie Fraser Make-up did all the Make-up and the entire event was held in the Best Western House Hotel by Ayr Racecourse.

Cake was by Heavenly Cakes By Andrea Flowers by Kirsties Flowers, Troon.

Bridesmaid's Dresses in Kiwi Green Orissa Silk

Natasha had already purchased her wedding dress from an amazing designer store in London, booked Paul Raeburn Paul Raeburn for her photography. She had booked St Mary's Cathedral for her ceremony and the The Signet Library for her reception, when she came to see us regarding her bridesmaids dresses.
She did have a bit of a challenge on her hands, as her 3 gorgeous bridesmaids has very different colouring, and she wanted a colour to suit them all.
she went for a Kiwi green Orissa silk. We made boned bodices with internal lace up and covered buttons and loops over.
they had a circular skirt with netting under. The dresses had a silk chiffon ruched belt, with a fixed bow at the back and 3 fabric roses at the front decorated hand embroidered with Swarovski crystals.
All the girls looked great, and so did the flowers from Bloemen Ecke.
So pleased Paul Raeburn let us use his photographs to show you.

Winter forest wonderland and ivory powdery chiffon

Rebecca contacted us to tell us she was engaged, we were so happy to hear that. We had previously worked with her and made her some stunning evening dresses, so were delighted to be asked to make her wedding dress.
Rebecca had ideas of soft soft flowing silk chiffon full double circle skirt and a long length bodice. Soft long sleeves and a boat neckline.
The soft flowing fabrics was a stunning contrast to her strong sharp hair cut, she wore a simple hair accessory from Rene Walrus.
Her wedding theme was wintry forest.
The wedding was held in The Roxburgh, Kelso, in December last year. The couple had a really personal service and reception with lots of input from their talented friends.
The photographers captured the day so well and we thank them for letting us show you the pictures.
It was a joy to work with Rebecca, and we hope you enjoy the stunning photographs, from Crofts & Kowalczyck Wedding Photographs
