Design Fabric sourcing Full construction Fittings Finishing There are no hidden costs.

Alterations beyond hemline adjustment are quoted separately. Here's why — your piece is made to your exact measurements at the time of production, but bodies change over 12–18 months. We want to ensure the fit is perfect when you wear it, so we quote alterations based on what's needed at that time.

We recommend 12–18 months before your wedding. That gives time for design development, sourcing, construction and fittings. Getting married sooner? Lots of our brides come to us with less than a year, and as little as two months can be possible. Rush fees may apply, depending on the design.

A 50% deposit secures your order. The balance is due before the first fitting. We accept bank transfer and card payments.

Most brides start 12–18 months before the wedding, but lots come to us with less than a year. Getting married sooner? Get in touch. As little as two months can be possible: everything is more compressed and rush fees may apply, depending on the design.

That's most of our brides. You don't need a vision — you need a conversation. That's what this appointment is for. We figure it out together.

Only if you're comfortable. We have silhouettes in studio and we'll work through some shapes and fabrics to see what feels good — but nothing happens until you're ready.

Then we've learned something valuable. Knowing what doesn't work is half the process. And honestly, it's rare — most brides are surprised by what clicks once we strip away the noise.

Yes, and many brides prefer it. You'll have the studio to yourself. No other appointments, no distractions. If you want to bring someone, you can — but you don't need to perform for anyone here.

No. Most brides don't. The consultation is designed to help you figure that out. Come with whatever you have — a clear vision, a vague instinct, a list of things you hate, or nothing at all.

You can, but many brides prefer to come alone and find it easier to focus. The studio is private — there's space for one guest comfortably. If you want to bring your mam or a friend, that's fine. Just let us know when booking.

Every size. Every piece is made to your individual measurements. There's no sample size to fit into, no size range we stop at, and no standard you need to meet. Bespoke means for your body, full stop.

Online, yes — our lookbook and real bride gallery show pieces we've designed. But the best way to understand what we do is in the studio. We have finished pieces on display so you can see and feel the fabrics, the construction, the finishing — the standard we work to. Photos show a design. Holding the fabric and seeing the seams shows you the quality.

We work with brides across Ireland, the UK, and internationally — and some never visit the studio. Consultations can happen on Zoom. We've designed full bespoke pieces remotely from start to finish, with the final look delivered by courier. Brides travel from Kerry, Cork, Belfast, London, and beyond — but if distance makes that difficult, it's not a barrier.

It probably will. Your piece is made to your measurements at the time of production. If your body shifts over 12–18 months — and most people's does — we adjust at the fitting stage. That's what fittings are for. Alterations beyond hemline are quoted separately so you know exactly what to expect.

Absolutely. We've designed in black, champagne, blush, slate, navy, deep red, and colours mixed specifically for individual brides. Colour is a design decision, not a rebellion.

Yes. Bridal separates, trousers, suits, and jumpsuits are a regular part of what we design — especially for city weddings, civil ceremonies, and brides who want to feel powerful rather than pretty. We make sure it reads as bridal, not corporate.

Of course. Short dresses and minis work brilliantly for registry offices, intimate celebrations, and second looks. Same construction standards as a full gown — the length changes, the quality doesn't.

Yes, and there are smart ways to do it without designing two separate pieces. Removable sleeves, detachable capes, overskirts, a topper that transforms a base dress — we design for versatility so your look evolves through the day.

Deposits are non-refundable as they secure your production slot and cover the initial design and fabric sourcing work. We'll confirm the full terms in your design proposal before you commit to anything.
