✨ TE AMO BRIDE - KAREN & MARK ✨
All the way from Scotland to Te Amo… and the very first dress she tried on became the one 🤍
Karen travelled down to us on her own specifically because she wanted to try our Madi Lane collection. So, naturally, Christine and I appointed ourselves honorary Mum and sister for the day 😂🤍
And it turns out she didn’t need us for long… because dress number ONE was her dress! She stood in it for about 15 minutes before we eventually persuaded her to try a few more, just to make absolutely sure…. But, she was right the first time 😂
From there, it became about making her Madi Lane gown completely hers. We chatted through alterations, Caroline worked her magic - including a little last-minute change of plan when the sleeves Karen thought she wanted turned out not to be quite right…. and the finished result was just perfect.
Karen and Mark chose to elope to the beautiful Armathwaite Hall, and looking at these photographs, I think they absolutely nailed it. The flowers, the colours, the smoke flares, THAT bouquet… and of course their gorgeous four-legged guest 🥹🐾
Karen, it was an absolute pleasure being your honorary bridal family for the day. Thank you for trusting us with such a special part of your story. You looked incredible🤍
I’m sure we will keep in touch on Instagram due to our love of walking!!
Congratulations Mr & Mrs! 🥂
