Resilience, ambition and dedication.

Where did you fall in love with your dress and why?

In Sydney MWL store. It wasn’t one of the chosen dresses I wanted to try on, but the assistant was extremely knowledgeable and realised the fit and look I was going for. She chose Harlow and I fell in love with the detail, the fit and how it accentuated my curves in an elegant way. Best part about the dress I’d the detail in the back.

What was the best moment for you at your wedding?

Spending some very happy moments with the bridal party and seeing my husband cry for the 2nd time in 10 years!

What were your favourite details?

Favourite details of the dress were the intricate lace, the floral component and the detail in the back of the dress, from the V shape, to the buttons, to the belt creating a statement.

What advice would you tell other brides?

Let go on the day. You’ve done everything you can to work on the details of the day, so everything is out of your hands now. Enjoy the little things!
