Rowanjoy Real Bespoke Brides May - Alison, Carrie and Jennie

3 Gorgeous brides for May all in bespoke dresses, all completely different.


Alison's dress was a gorgeous simple, classic shape where it was all about the design details on the bodice. The dress was made in a beautiful pearl coloured duchesse satin with a keyhole and button detail at the back but it was really all about the shoulder detail. Stunning beaded and diamante appliqués were added on the cap sleeve of the dress and just finished off the dress perfectly.
I also had the pleasure of making Alison's bridesmaid dresses, who all chose different designs in 2 gorgeous shades of teal. Don't they  all look beautiful.






 Carrie was my gorgeous bride all the way over in America who discovered me through my etsy shop and ordered a completely bespoke gown. The inspiration for Carrie's dress came from the styles of the thirties and she chose a gorgeous panelled design with low back detail. A beaded ivory lace with silver details was layered over a champagne silk satin and the scalloped edge of the lace finished off the neckline and hem of the dress. Carrie also commissioned a juliet  cap veil which works perfectly with the style of the dress.

For Jennie's dress some cape action was the one big design feature she was looking for and some damn good cape sleeves she got. A delicate, gold embroidered tulle was used for the sleeves and was combined with fabric from her gran's wedding dress to make the bodice of the dress. Jennie accessorised her dress with the most amazing brightly coloured pompom headband. I think Jennie looks utterly fab and completely comfortable in her dress, surely a dress you can do Kate Bush arm wafting in can only be a good thing.
