Bespoke, alternative bridalwear that's as unique as you!

No two brides have the same personal style and no two couples have the same love story.  I vow to reflect all that makes you unique in your wedding dress.  Whether you want a full black gothic wedding gown, one that dabbles with hints of colour, or go for extra luxe using bespoke embroidery, featuring motifs and patterns that are personal to you. 
 
I use you as my muse – not trends or traditions.  
 
This ensures that you glide down the aisle in a 100% unique, epic wedding dress that will delight all who set eyes upon you, in full confidence that none other could ever wear this dress so fiercely as you.  
 
You will have my 1-1 attention, meaning that nothing can get lost in translation and I will personally make sure that the gown sculpts and flatters your curves, whatever your size.  
 

So tell me what in your wildest dreams do you wish you could wear for your wedding, and let’s take it from there!

Love, Caroline Xx

“There were so many compliments on my dress- even a few audible gasps!

It had the surprise and wow-factor and I felt so confident and elegant wearing it.”

You need a custom-made wedding dress if:

– Bridalwear in stores don’t reflect my personal style. 

– I don’t want to wear a run-of-the-mill wedding gown

– I usually struggle to find clothes that fit me properly.  

– I don’t want to end up settling for a wedding dress that is just “fine”? 

– I’ve seen elements on different dresses that I like, but never all in one dress!

– I’m not like other brides and don’t want to look like I am?

Modern, unique brides, I hear you, I see you and I am here to actually create for you what you truly desire -from scratch!

By working with me as your dressmaker...

… I listen carefully to your requirements and visions and pour that all into a wedding gown, that then has some thought and meaning in it.

The result is an entirely unique wedding dress that only you could wear!

“A huge thank you to Caroline for bringing my dress and vision to life! She was wonderful to work with, super reassuring at every stage and always easy to get in touch with.

I had some very specific ideas for making a totally bespoke dress (even a scientifically accurate star chart) but had no idea how to make it happen and keep it comfortable and practical.

Caroline helped guide to show what was possible, find the best materials and colours, and made a lovely, incredibly long train with a tribute to my dogs just as I wanted. And pockets!

The dress fittings were a great experience for me, my mum and maid of honour.

I felt like a gothic queen walking down the aisle. It was such a big wow factor on my wedding day and a really fun dress to wear, totally representing me.

Couldn’t have dreamed of anything better, 100% recommend Caroline!!”

-Vicky

And let’s not forget that this is your wedding, a momentous occasion! 

It warrants more than mere “dress shopping”.

Start off on the right foot, by choosing a wedding dress experience you deserve!
