Kathryn Forsters wedding.


We had taken some photo's of Kathryns wedding dress in the studio before we handed it over for her big day.Kathryn looked amazing in her dress with handbeaded broach by a jewellery designer and vintage style shoes ,it was lovely to hand the dress over along with the six bridemaids dresses that we had spent designing and sewing in the past couple of months.


Feedback from Kathryn: "My dress fitted perfectly and it felt so magical to wear it.I have never seen a more gorgeous dress, thankyou so much for making for me".
