Stacy

Stacy’s awe-inspiring wedding day took place on Knysna Elephant Park in South Africa. She was radiant in Audrey with Grayson Overskirt by Made With Love, which our Glasgow team loved helping her find!

Tell us a bit about your day!

We decided to go away with just our closest friends. We began with a small ceremony in the chapel up in the mountains then had a champagne toast and some cake. We then got to feed the elephants and include them in our day
We ended the day with a meal, the nine of us and a small reception at the venue. The day was amazing!!! An everything we could have hoped for.

How did you end up finding 'the one'?

I had two very disappointing experiences in other dress shops which really put me off. I waited to go to The White Collection, as from the moment I booked an appointment the girls were so friendly and patient with my decisions and views on dress styles. They were able to help me eliminate some dresses, and listened to what I thought then pulled out what they knew was similar (I was happy to trust them as they know the stock best). I asked to try one dress last and that was the dress I ended up buying! I still love her so much!

What did you love about being a The White Collection bride?

I loved the personal treatment I got from the moment I booked the appointment all the way through to buying my dress and even going back for dry cleaning. The girls are all so nice and friendly.

Did you have bridesmaids? How did you involve them in the wedding and how did you decide on their wedding wardrobe?

We had two witnesses in South Africa and three bridesmaids at our party at home. They wore dark hunter green as we love natural earthy colours.

What was your favourite part of the day?

My favourite part of our day was the ceremony. Our celebrant made it very personal to us and for meeting him only briefly made us feel so at home and relaxed. We also did a first look which we were not sure about, however this gave us a personal moment and honestly relaxed us both before the ceremony.
