"When it comes to finding the one—your wedding dress, of course—it’s all about the journey. For our lovely bride Bridget, it wasn’t just about the lace, the fit, or even the perfect train. It was about the feeling she had when she stepped into her dream gown, we here at Pearls and Lace are delighted to have been able to play a small part in her dream day.
Let's hear all about it...
Bridget, firstly tell us about your dress?
I chose an Eva Lendel off the shoulder dress for my wedding. I had always wanted a dress that had long sleeves or an off the shoulder sleeve, and I definitely wanted some bit of sparkle for my dress. I had been to two other dress shops before Pearls and Lace and nothing really stood out to me in those shops, but it gave me some sort of idea of what I did and did not like.
How did you style your dress?
Tell us about your bridal party?
What would your advice be for other brides to be?
My one piece of advice would be to try and enjoy all the planning and build up to the wedding itself. I loved the whole planning and organizing stage of the wedding and the buildup to the day. The wedding day goes by so quickly so try and take time to enjoy all those moments before the wedding. The more you plan in advance the easier the week of the wedding will be and the smoother the day itself will go! Try not to get overwhelmed with everything you think you need to have for your big day, everyone is there to just celebrate the day with you!
What was your most memorable moment of your special day?
The whole day from start to finish was amazing, but my most memorable part of the day was definitely when the band started and we had our first dance! I was so lucky to have my uncle's band Keltic Kaos play at our wedding; the music was so lively and having all my closest family and friends all together on the dancefloor joining in with us at the end of our first dance was something that sticks out in my mind.
We hope your day was everything you dreamed off and more!!
