I first met Laura as the twinkly, blue-eyed bridesmaid of Leah Charlett, another glam Jenny Packham/Miss Bush bride, last year. Imagine my delight that she too came to choose her dress. Two gorgeous brides and friends kindly share their pictures of their weddings in their uber romantic, billowing, purest silk chiffon gowns. I am in dress heaven…
Fast forward to June 25th this year and Laura is now centre stage in her very own Packham the iconic Elizabeth. In her own words –
Just wanted to say a huge thank you for all your help from helping me to chose my wedding dress ‘Jenny Packham – Elizabeth’ to all the advice and fittings. The little touches of the blue ribbon on the train of the dress was amazing and for sewing in my mother’s silver 6 pence which she was given on her wedding day were just some of the personal touches which made the whole experience amazing and I have been raving about you all to anyone who will listen!

| These dresses were made for sweeping staircases… |

| To borrow from estate agent jargon – Jenny Packham’s dresses are deceptively simple. Dozens of metres of bias cut silk from the lining to the voluminous choffon layers look minimal at rest and dramatic when styled |

| Amazing photos – particularly love the drama of this. A breezy English summers day is all the props needed to create this spectacular shot |
Many thanks to the new Mr and Mrs O’Conner, Lewis and Laura for sharing these amazing photos
