Destination Wedding Gibraltar

Absolutely fab wedding to be part of, Dawn is such fun and so kind..it still makes me smile, that at our first meeting, she told me it was going to be a destination wedding... either hot or cold... well there is something for me to work to.

Then Dawn's loving husband to be, made decision for a fabulous location for the wedding. His inspiration led Dawn to me and the team at Freja, and the wonderful hosts at the Mons Calpe Suite and Caleta Hotel.

Dawn says: "It's been a whirlwind of beautiful people with exceptional talents that made our special day so very memorable. Thank you for being such an important part of it all xx"

The wedding ended up being a gorgeous spring wedding in Gibraltar. It just looks so so great. Cable car to the top of the point where the ceremony took place and then celebrations galore in hotel. Lots of friends and family took time out to come and celebrate for days with Kevin and Dawn.

We made Dawn an empire line silk chiffon dress. The empire line was marked by a deep band. She had a detachable mesh bolero, with hand embellishment. The veil was hand finished, with the same embellishment.

Dawn had such an eye for detail and is used to planing, for the wedding, nothing was left unplanned, and it shows, what a lovely time they had away.

It was such a pleasure to work with Dawn and we are delighted to get to show off the gorgeous wedding.

Perthshire Wedding with super chique dress in silk and lace

Lovely intimate wedding with only close family and friends.

Cathy's dress was made in silk satin with lace bodice, it has deep pleats. The lace overlay on the bodice is edge with a heavy scalloped, and it makes a lovely detail to the dress.

We feel so fortunate for being allowed to show it all off.

The wedding was held in Perthshire and Nigel Lumsden Photography captured the day beautifully.

Wintry Elopement

Beautiful wedding Elopement to the north of Norway.

We loved Danielle's brief description of her wedding in Norway; "it's going to be snowy, dark outside and with lots of candles"

She chose a soft draping silk satin we made her a lovely sleeveless slash neck wedding dress, with a little train and crystal belt.

She had silk covered buttons and loops down the back of her dress, and she wore snow-boots.

Only a select intimate group followed the young couple to Norway to celebrate their big day with them, and then spend the next days skiing.

It was a pleasure to help Danielle with her dress, and it was completed in a few weeks only.

Green Silk Taffeta Short wedding dress with deep pleats and lace overlay

It was lovely to meet Mary, we got really excited about her lovely ideas, she wanted a short green wedding dress, that was what she was sure of. We looked at her ideas and came up with some options to achieve the look she wanted. She went for a lovely crisp silk taffeta in a green colour and a sweet heart neckline with bateau scallop neckline in lace over, on the back the lace has a keyhole and a concealed zip.
The wedding ceremony was held at the Malmaison, Leith, and the Wedding Lunch at The Shore Bar and Restaurant, the evening drinks was at Bond No 9. All on the Shore, an area much loved by the bride and groom.

The flowers were from Petals on The Shore, Hair By Cascal on Constitution Street, and Mary's gorgeous shoes were from Jimmy Choo.

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 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.

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

Black currant coloured silk bridesmaids dresses

Liz had bought a beautiful Stewart Parvin wedding dress from Rachel Scott Couture, and asked us to make bridesmaids dresses to suit her 3 lovely but very different bridesmaids.

 Liz decided to go for a very textured silk, an orissa silk, she went for short dresses, with boned bodices, concealed zips at the back and netting on the hemline, all made in the colour Black Current. The 3 necklines were different and suited each of the girls.

The wedding was beautiful held in the The Signet Library, and First Light Wedding Photography took the lovely photographs and portraits of the bridesmaids.

It was lovely working with you all, and we think the result was really nice and suited an early spring wedding.
