Real bride Lisa, lovely in 1940s-style 'Bette' wedding dress

Dear Reader,
Some lovely photos today of real bride Lisa, in her 1940s inspired wedding dress...

Lisa married in Summer and looks so elegant and poised in the dress. She really wears it beautifully. You may recognise the gown as 'Bette' from my Heavenly Collection.

I'm always happy to personalise a dress for an individual client, by adding different finishes. For Lisa, we decided on an original vintage trim of silver bugle beads for the neckline. And we added a belt with the same vintage beads. We were all delighted with the result and in Lisa's words, 

"Many thanks again for creating such a beautiful dress, I had so many wonderful comments on the day."

These beautiful original trims are becoming very rare now, and I spend a great deal of time sourcing them for our vintage-inspired wedding dresses. So it's a delight when they add the perfect finishing touch to a perfect bride! Our thanks to Lisa, for sharing her gorgeous pictures.

Love
Helena
