The dress of my dreams! I cannot thank and recommend Ella May enough for bringing my vision to life and making the dress-making journey so special. I loved the entire process, from the excitement of receiving the first sketches and picking the fabric to all the fittings, and finally picking up the dress with the special touch of ribbons featuring my name, wedding date, and sketches of my dress, which I now have framed in my room. The whole experience was so personal, relaxed, and fun! Ella May listened to every little suggestion or idea I had which made me feel so comfortable and listened to. 
I wanted to be very hands-on with the design of every part of my dress. It was a team effort between my Mum, Ella May, and me to design it, and then Ella May and her team really brought it to life.

Getting married in Scotland in October, I needed my dress to work for the setting and temperature. I wanted to be warm and covered for the church service, so we made a jacket. The brief for the jacket was crisp, clean, with defined lines, and something I could wear again, which I absolutely love. For my dress, we created definition through the seams, the fitted dropped waist, and a (manageable) train. I felt incredible in it and absolutely loved wearing it. For the dinner, I removed the jacket. I wanted something more glamorous, so we added a scarf, which I just loved and also hope to wear again.

Ella May is just so so good at what she does, and I will always treasure my dress and all the special memories that come with it
