Contracts

Signing your gown OUT of my care is as important as signing it in

Signing it in puts it onto my insurances...to store it, as well as working on it
Then you'll sign again to show agreement that the work we decided together is necessary giving me the green light to lift my scissors

Signing it out is just as important... for both of us

It is no longer on my insurance, it is no longer my responsibility.
Thats what your signature on my sign out sheet means

The Y/N box is an extra
Were you happy with the service I provided?
Are you happy with the outcome of the work completed?
Do you understand that once signed the items are no longer my responsibility?

Am I a stickler for signatures & contracts ?

That would be a Y

The Journey

From the first pair you wear as a toddler to the first pair you wear as a wife

Your wedding day is the culmination of many journeys
- your engaged self
-your bridal era
-your planning
-your alterations journey

But every step that brought you to those journeys began long before - in a cute pair of toddler shoes ❤️

Happy Easter from Donna and Eugene aka !

We have lots of new followers in recent weeks so here is a bit of our past, that makes the present and leads to our future!

Some people don’t just work in weddings… they define them!

Meet Donna;

Donna from — an award-winning bridal seamstress whose talent, dedication, and eye for perfection have shaped countless unforgettable bridal moments.

With her seamstress diary now closed (and that says everything about the demand for her craft), Donna continues to lead as the proud owner of n Banbridge — a space where style, expertise, and passion come together beautifully.

As part of The Wedding Dressers Ireland, Donna delivers more than just a service…

it’s a bespoke, exquisitely curated experience for every bride.
From local brides to national celebrations and even international weddings — her work travels, her reputation speaks, and her standards never waver.

This is not just sewing, or dressing;
This is artistry, precision, and a woman at the top of her game

Meet Eugene — aka

With over 10 years’ experience in hospitality, working across some of Ireland’s top hotels, Eugene has been at the heart of it all — from intimate “I do’s” to full-scale celebrations.

Having looked after approximately 1,000 weddings and hundreds of gala dinners, there’s very little he hasn’t seen… and even less he hasn’t perfected.

But what truly sets Eugene apart isn’t just experience — it’s how he delivers it.
Calm, considered, and completely invested.
Every moment is cared for.
Every detail is curated.
Every couple is looked after — professionally, but always personally.

Joining forces with Donna from Sew Handy, Eugene helped create The Wedding Dressers Ireland — bringing a new level of bespoke, seamless, and elevated bridal support to weddings locally, nationally, and internationally.

This isn’t just a role…
It’s presence, passion, and precision when it matters most!

An hour before the ceremony is still time enough

The whole way through the alterations process rhe decision was to have the sleeves detachable...

But minds change...and that's okay ..even if it is an hour before the ceremony

So within a few minutes, as the final touches were happening, the sleeves became permanent.

On the day it was a quick fix... 🪡 and 🧵 and all was set
