Helena
Helena looked enchanting in Euron by Rosa Clara at her wedding in Hampton Manor. She traveled from Manchester to her home town in Bristol to select her gown with us!
Tell us a bit about your day!
A winter wedding that incorporated the things that really mattered to us.
Our whole wedding day took place on the Hampton Manor estate; we moved from the Birches for the ceremony to the Courtyard for the wedding breakfast where we were served a bespoke menu which incorporated asian influences as a nod to my heritage. We ended the evening back in the Manor House where each room had something different...live music, casino tables and a games room!
How did you end up finding 'the one'?
After many hours of trawling instagram for ideas I was drawn to Rosa Clara's dresses, they are so crisp, clean, elegant and modern. I can honestly say all of the Rosa Clara dresses I tried on were absolutely beautiful but I choose Euron with the scallop neckline. It was a dress that suited the venue wonderfully; the train brought the dramatic bridal dress feel, the split leg gave space to move freely and the scallop neckline gave the dress more of a unique feel.
What did you love about being a The White Collection bride?
I am originally from Bristol so it was really special travelling back to my hometown to look for and buy my wedding dress! The whole experience was really relaxed and I was kept up to date with when I could expect my dress to arrive in store.
Did you have bridesmaids? How did you involve them in the wedding and how did you decide on their wedding wardrobe?
I had five bridesmaids; my sisters and two best friends from childhood. They all looked beautiful in their crepe navy floor length bridesmaids dresses, it took longer for me to find their dresses than to find my own!
What was your favourite part of the day?
Entering the courtyard for the wedding breakfast, what an atmosphere!
