Fancy a little escape into a pre-covid wedding - me too! Things are a little heavy at the moment for brides so let’s find the joy in the little things and dream of when we will all dance at a party again.
I am delighted to finally share this beautiful bride Grainne and her fantastic wedding day

What is your best memory of your wedding day?
The best memory was the whole entire day! I loved every minute of it and didn’t stop smiling from ear to ear all day. It was so much fun to have all of our family and friends together under one roof, mixing and mingling and enjoying each other’s company, it was exactly how I had hoped our wedding would be.
What is your advice to a bride to be?
My advice would be to try and do it all step by step and enjoy all of the little steps along the way. I really miss it all and would love to do it all over again…I never thought I’d say that!
What was your biggest worry about getting your dress made?
My biggest worry was that I couldn’t see how the finished product would turn out. I’m not a naturally creative person so I often tried to picture the dress in my head and found it difficult. But I trusted Sarah’s craft and creativeness and I’m so glad I did as I was absolutely delighted with the end result. It was also so comfortable which was an important factor for me. I didn’t need any help to go to the loo and was able to dance all night long
What part of the process of having your dress made was most fun for you?
It was a lot of fun from start to finish. I loved seeing the progress as the dress started to come together. I loved how much time I got to spend with my mam and bridesmaids. It was so nice to meet up for the various dress fittings in Clontarf and make an afternoon out of it going for lunch/coffee.
And I really loved how informal and relaxed the whole process was. I always felt so comfortable with Sarah which is the opposite way I felt whenever I walked into bridal boutiques prior to discovering Sarah!
