HAT BOX RUMMAGE

"Spring" is in the air ! We are loving the longer daylight already, and we can not wait to store the electric blankets away.

In the spirit of Spring cleaning, our gorgeous and talented neighbour, Embellish Atelier, is having a "Hat Box Rummage". You will find all sorts of "Millinery Treasures". Imagine being in your grandma's attic, where you can find little bits of vintage and intricate details, pieces that inspire you to play and create. We are talking hat making remnants and trinkets. You can also view their latest Hats Collection. Melbourne Cup is coming soon, so it's a great time to get inspiration of "Which Hats to Wear".

Sherry Bridal Couture is also going to participate in this event. We have our own "Bridal Treasures"; Vintage lace off-cuts, French and Italian lace, buttons, ribbons, beaded motifs, silk, cottons and tulles.
Bibs and bobs that we have kept all these years of making beautiful wedding dresses. They are mostly in white and ivory hues, but they are dyeable, so they will be perfect for any projects you have in mind.

Come and meet us, this fun event is going to be held at Embellish Atelier Studio.

Saturday 14 September 2013
48 Victoria Rd, Rozelle Sydney
10 AM to 2 PM.
Corner of and entry via Gordon Street.

Look forward to meet you all !!

Debbie and John

I met Debbie when I first started working in bridal. That time, it was her sister, Lenore who got married, and Debbie was her bridesmaid. When I started my own bridal boutique, Debbie came to me all beaming with excitement. "It's my time now !!". In a way, I think we both grow mature together because now, it's my time too !!(my own business, etc).

So we both embark on another adventure, designing Debbie's beautiful couture wedding gown. We came up with an intricate design, with layers of tulle that twists and turns, creating fluid elegant lines to flatter Debbie's figure.  Scatters of beaded silver lace highlights her decolletage and shoulders. The beautiful blush and mushroom colour combination complements Debbie's natural skin tone. She looks like a happy radiant young bride.

Debbie chose Junior Blue colour for her bridesmaids. The hint of warm grey gives the navy tone a young fresh feeling. We kept the same skirt for everyone, but different bodices for each girl. I really love how they all turned up and hope they all get to "actually" wear them again.

I also love all the colour tone throughout the wedding story. The beautiful pinks, creams and moss green with touch of gold. Oh, and that tea bonbonniere is just devine.

Debbie and the ladies are all very very lovely. Dream clients for every designer. Very positive and complimentary to every one. Lots of love in the air made the whole experience nice and memorable. Wedding planning can be daunting a lot of time, so having all your family and friend's support will really ease the load. So good work everyone!!!

Marchesa Bridal Autumn/Winter 2014

I'm in love with Marchesa's new collection. The dynamic duo, Georgina Chapman and Keren Craig have once again deliver a very beautiful array of bridal gowns. They are combinations of old and new, vintage and modern, romantic and edgy, soft and bursting with intricate details. 

They present classic beautiful and flattering silhouettes, enhanced with 3d applique, textures and layers of fabrics. A mixing of lace, laser cut flower petals, tulles and organza, the combinations are endless. Their crafmanship is so exquisite, it's Couture at its best.  

I also love the dramatic veils and soft matte make up which gives natural highlight. Veils are normally worn in church weddings, but these gorgeous veils are so different, they add drama to your look. 

Any bride can take inspiration from this collection. Jazz it up or tone it down, or wear it as it is. It's young, fresh, fabulous and elegant. 

As you walk down the aisle, you can imagine you are walking on a red carpet, it's that glamorous.

Betty and Pui

Betty came to Sherry Bridal with a vision. She wanted a Japanese inspired wedding gown. The couple love everything Japanese, they even went all the way to Japan to have Pre-wedding photo session. That's where Betty looked everywhere for the perfect Japanese obi. She came back with two options. The pale purple is the perfect colour that Betty wanted, but since we fell in love with both of them, we decided to make 2 different sets of waistband-bustle to create 2 different looks, "Elegant" for down the aisle look and "Fun" for party time.

The A-Line Ivory Gown was structured to complement Betty's figure as well as acting as a blank canvas to show off the obi and bustle. Both looks are so pretty and captured beautifully by Society Photography.

I love the whole feel of the wedding, the venue, the colour scheme, the decor, the cake, the flowers, every little detail is saying "Summer wedding in beautiful Japan".

Betty's couture gown was a fun project. She was always full of energy everytime she came for fitting, making the whole process enjoyable and memorable.

Autumn and Ryan

The beautiful bride and groom wanted a relax wedding, an intimate party to celebrate their love for each other.

For the dress, Autumn opted for "Vintage" look, not too formal but still sexy without the va va voom. She chose a beautiful delicate piece of French cotton lace, which we draped over the bodice. Pretty lace edging frame her décolletage and accentuate the sexy low back. Gathered tulle on her shoulders and skirt soften the slim silhouette. The combination of Natural lace and tulle over the Latte silk satin work nicely with Autumn's skin colour. Lavender belt gave the overall look a cheeky twist and check out the gorgeous Purple heels. Sexy, Fun, Relax and Classic Timeless Vintage.

The Gaia Photography team captured the day really nicely. The Sephia tone blends all the colour and the mood perfectly.

Love Love Love...

Kristina and Shane

"Real Weddings" Magazine (issue 22) features "Kristina and Shane" Magnetic Island's wedding.

Kristina came from Townsville to Sydney in search for the perfect wedding gown, and she found "Juliette". It took 12 months to find and 5 months to make. "Big Commitment", as she said in the article. The couture gown is made out of Ivory embroidered tulle on Oyster Queen satin, layers of French tulle sculptured skirt, glittering Swarovski pearls, beads and diamantes, and to wrap it all up, gorgeous gross-grain ribbon fashioned into a detachable belt.

Sherry Bridal is very honoured to be part of Kristina and Shane's beautiful and perfect day. They have been together for more than 10 years (or 11 now), and we wish them many many many more years to come.
