Frances

Frances’s first fitting was the last one I did before the first UK lockdown – which seems so long ago now! She and Tom had to delay their wedding for a year like so many other couples.

Frances’s gown was Lunaria, and we built up the bottom section of the open back a little so she could wear more supportive bra. A lace trimmed mantilla veil finished her look off perfectly, keeping the open back visible throughout.

Frances and Tom married in church, then headed to the stunning Durham Castle to celebrate with all their favourites.

“Words will never express how grateful I am for the part you played in making my wedding day the beautiful day of my life. And my dress... Tom LOVED IT. All he could say when I first saw him was how much he loved the dress - it definitely stole the show throughout the whole day and I’m sure most people are told their wedding dress is beautiful but the amount of questions and love my dress received was unbelievable! It even survived a whole bottle of beer being spilt right down the front of it!!” Frances
