Two brides equalled two showstopping dresses! Georgia tells us more about the shopping experience! “We both wore dresses from Abigail's Collection. We went together with our mums and chose our dresses together, so we knew what each other would be wearing. We actually ended up picking dresses that perfectly complemented each other. We both accessorised our dresses with J LO white high heels and diamond/pearl earrings.” On 24th April, 2024 Georgia and Daisy became Mrs & Mrs at Gaynes Park.

Lara Jayne Design specialises in flower preservation, and everything she creates is done so from her home studio. The flowers are dried and stored until the resin is due to begin, then Lara completes a design process using your bouquet and wedding flowers as a guide. Resin is then used to encase the flowers and/or other sentimental items like charms, pins or ribbon, and by using this method you get to keep the richness of your original flowers forever.

Hair Crowns – I absolutely love them! This image was from a Midsummer themed wedding at the Roslin Beach Hotel where Simply Stunning Flowers provided a 'Make your own flower crown' table... all of the guests loved it and really embraced the day and wore their crowns with pride. I think they are such a statement piece for the bride and can fit within every wedding.

This bride was inspired by Queen Charlotte, the prequel to the beloved Netflix series Bridgerton, and requested her hairstylist to mimic the regal look displayed on the big screen. The styled shoot of the wedding available to view in this issue, captures the glowing bride's princess springtime look, with a stunning shot showing off her long dress train.
