| BROOKE + PHILIP |
One of my favourite parts of my job is the connection I form with each individual bride. This bride was extra special – through the process of our fittings we worked out that not only did each of our grandmothers know each other; but our parents knew each other from way back too. Without realising it, we’d played together as children!
Brooke came to me knowing she wanted a long sleeved bohemian wedding dress that was unique, comfortable, and one-of-a-kind. During our initial consultation we sketched up a design that was exactly what she was after! Brooke’s beautiful gown featured tendrils of silvery lace, delicate bohemian sleeves, and a flowing handkerchief hem skirt with lace appliqué throughout.
Each of my gowns gets a ‘Something Blue’ bow and a ‘Something Old’ piece of vintage lace carefully sewn on the inside. When I finished Brooke’s gown, I lovingly sewed a piece of vintage lace from my grandmothers collection on to this extra special brides wedding dress – I know my grandmother would approve, and I feel incredibly honoured to be in a position where I can do something so special.
Brooke had these kind words to say about her experience with KWD:

Brooke and Phil’s wedding was held on a spectacular 100 acre family farm in Oberon with beautiful DIY elements throughout.
Congratulations Brooke – you looked spectacular!

As lovely as it was, it simply wasn’t […]
