Your Gown

Every bride deserves to look spectacular on her day, and the choice of wedding attire is the most powerful determinant in setting look and feel for the whole event. There is nothing like a dress that has been made for you, fits perfectly and is comfortable to help bring out that sense of radiance and assurance that you are looking your absolute best. 

It is worth taking your time to visit several designers and wedding dress studios. Trusted professionals will help you find designs that are flattering and stylish; a designer who has had many years of working with brides will be able to help narrow down the dazzling array of so many choices to several clear directions, saving you time and optimising the result. Many well known designers do have more affordable ranges, and it absolutely worth avoiding the heartache caused by trying to get by with expecting relatives or dressmakers without enough experience to be able to make a perfectly fitting dress.  Good cutting, fitting and finishing are the keys to success, and these skills take many many years to perfect.  If you are more petite than average, or with a more generous figure, or particularly tall, then it is particularly important to ensure the dress is made for you; off the rack dresses are unlikely to bring out your best, whereas a good designer will be able to create a triumph.

Please avoid leaving the dress to the last minute. Major studios prefer at least six months for the best results, although we know of several instances where a large High St design firm was able to create a sensational dress in under two weeks!
