☘️ OUR BEAUTIFUL IRISH BRIDE MARRIES HER SCOTTISH HUSBAND! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

An Irish bride, a Scottish groom and a beautiful celebration of love, individuality and style! 🤍

We were absolutely delighted to design and create this beautiful bespoke bridal outfit for Suzanne, who chose a contemporary, elegant look for her very special day.

Rather than a traditional wedding gown, Suzanne wanted something that reflected her personality — chic, sophisticated, comfortable and uniquely hers.

At Máire Forkin Designs, we worked closely with Suzanne to create a beautifully tailored ivory bridal ensemble, designed to flatter her figure and make her feel wonderful.

And didn't she look fabulous alongside her handsome Scottish groom in his traditional kilt! 💜

In Suzanne's own words:

"She listened carefully to how I wanted to feel as a bride and came up with a bespoke design that suited me perfectly."

— Suzanne

To the Mother of the Groom: You deserve to feel just as radiant and confident as everyone else on his big day. ✨

Yet, for so many women in their 50s, 60s, and 70s, finding that perfect outfit on the high street is just frustrating. Standard off-the-rack designs rarely fit or flatter your true figure.

During a recent fitting, a client shared a total revelation: after years of struggling with generic clothing, she realised she had simply never worn an outfit cut for her body shape until she walked through our doors. No forcing herself into a standard dress—just a bespoke piece designed entirely to celebrate her.

The Maire Forkin Bespoke Experience

Say goodbye to the high-street struggle. At our South Dublin studio, we design high-end, made-to-measure occasion wear tailored entirely around you.
✨ Flattering Silhouettes: Maire guides you past restrictive sizing to find the perfect shapes for your figure.
✨ Luxury Fabrics: We use premium Italian and French silks, wools, and crepes for a flawless drape and complete comfort.
✨ Matching Millinery: Finish your look seamlessly with our custom-coordinated headpieces.
Don't leave your outfit to chance. Book your private consultation today!
Spaces are limited. Secure your exclusive, one-on-one appointment at our Dublin studio now to discuss your vision for his wedding day.

☀️ Enjoyed some lovely family time in the Algarve! ❤️

It’s has been so nice to get away for a few days, enjoying the sunshine and having some time to relax with family.

Sometimes a little break is just what you need — good company, lots of chats and laughs, beautiful surroundings and plenty of time to enjoy the moment. ☀️🥰

✨What if you can't find the right outfit for your family wedding?✨

Many clients come to us after struggling to find a Mother of the Bride or Mother of the Groom outfit that fits beautifully, reflects their style and feels special enough for the occasion.

Our client Maria first came to us for her eldest daughter’s wedding and returned for two more family weddings. For each celebration, we created a different bespoke wedding outfit around her figure, colouring and personal style.

Designed and made in Ireland, each made-to-measure outfit offered comfort, an exceptional fit and the opportunity to mix, match and wear the individual pieces again.

If you have searched the shops without finding the right wedding outfit, our bespoke occasionwear service offers a personal alternative.

We create individual outfits for mothers of the bride and groom, mature brides and wedding guests.

Private consultations are available in our South Dublin studio.
