WHY DID YOU CHOOSE THE GENEVIEVE RUFFLE GOWN FOR YOUR WEDDING DRESS?

When I was looking for a wedding dress, I really wanted something feminine but not traditionally bridal. I also wanted to wear colour rather than white, and for it to feel a little different and make a statement. I’ve always loved Needle & Thread dresses, and after searching so many places - when I saw the Genevieve Ruffle Gown it just ticked all my boxes! I gasped when I saw it, because I had a vision of how I wanted to feel, but had no idea what that looked like until I found this dress.

WHAT ADVICE WOULD YOU GIVE OTHER COUPLES LOOKING TO ELOPE?

I’ve always wanted to elope but wasn’t quite sure I’d be able to pull it off. Luckily my husband was on board, it was important that we were on the same page. Everyone will have opinions about your wedding, so my advice is to keep the day about the two of you. We were respectful of others feelings, while at the same time doing what we wanted. It’s not everyone’s idea of a wedding and that’s ok! It turned out to be a magical day, and I loved every moment of it.
