Stunning Wedding in Northern Ireland at Drenagh House


Joanne and Dave organised a beautiful wedding in Northern Ireland from Scotland. We made Joanne's dress and it was was traveling over for her big day.

She had described the venue and the surroundings for me in advance, but i thought it was so beautiful when i saw the real thing in the photographs.

Joanne's dress fitted in beautifully with the period architecture.

Joanne had a soft silk crepe dress with straps and quite a low back. This dress was simple and pretty enough to wear alone for the evening reception, for the daytime and the ceremony, she wore a lovely long lace over coat with long sleeves and a deep V-neck and little buttons.

From the left over lace from the coat, Joanne's dad covered all the little jam jars, and it looked great. The lovely flowers were designed and arranged my Sharon Peaker Weddings they fitted in with the theme so well.

We love the venue, Drenagh House, Northern Ireland and the stunning photographs by Lisa McConalogue Photography and thanks for letting us share that beautiful wedding.

Renewal of Wedding Vows

For their 10 year wedding anniversary, this lovely couple decided to renew their Vows.
They wanted to celebrate the last 10 years and have a very personal and intimate ceremony and party with friends.
We were excited by Lindsay's brief for her dress. She went for a silk crepe dress, (she wore a corset under the dress) and we made bones and internal lace up to to give amazing hourglass shape.
She then had a cape in a sheer tulle, with a lot of 3D motifs appliqued on.
We love the dress in the setting in the gorgeous forest with amazing viewpoint.
It was a fun dress to make and we were thrilled when we were allowed to share their photographs with you, thanks to Lindsay and her husband and shots from Polarberry Photography.

Beautiful soft spring light and soft colours and Chantilly lace

Abby actually first came to see me to look at bridesmaids dresses as she was so set on the rose-quartz colour, and she had not been able to find anything like that.

We found her some lovely sequins in the correct colour, and as she was there looking for those. She fell in love with a wedding dress...

we made her a simple slim style wedding dress in silk satin and Chantilly lace overlay. She had internal lace up on the dress and a little lace bolero in the same lace.

she then chose a tulle belt with embellishment to sit at her waist.

This early spring wedding was just so beautiful and colour coordinated with the Rose-quartz colour, fluffy powdery roses and sparse spring light.

It was such a lovely surprise Abby and Matt had chosen such lovely suppliers, Balbirnie House ,  Rosie Fraser Makeup and not least Ryan White Photography. (to only mention a few)

Early spring wedding with outdoors ceremony at Greywalls

Ginny had ideas of a slim style sparkly dress with low back.
so we played around with lots of different laces and cuts, and we landed on this, low back and really pretty embroidered tulle overlay.

Ginny and her husband to be had planned for an early spring wedding at Greywalls and told everybody to bring a coat, as the ceremony was to be outside. Lucky it was one of the first nice days this year, so they got a lovely day in a beautiful part of Scotland

Iain Macintosh from ImacImages captured the day really well and kindly let us use his work.

All the best to Ginny and Stewart, it was a pleasure being part of your big day.
