Nothin's gonna stop me. Not even a Volcano!

I opened my inbox today (which is normally filled with enquiries, fabric confirmations and the odd bit of junk) to find a message from the wonderful Catherine, my recently married client.

To say I can't stop grinning is an understatement.

The message began. "Dear lovely Linda." (Bless you Catherine). "Thank you so much for your lovely note and your text on the day before the big day. As you can imagine it was a whirlwind weekend and then we jetted off on honeymoon straight after .. well not quite jetted off, due to the volcano, but a quick last minute booking for a thatch cottage in wales where we found sunshine & ice cream!
We had an amazing day, surrounded by so much love, it was truly magical. The weather was absolutely superb .. people even got sunburn!"

Catherine still wanted to feel every inch a bride when we discussed her requirements and she said she felt she somehow achieved just the right balance of looking like a bride but still looking like Catherine.

Catherines personality oozed from every seam of her gown, from the fushia-pink satin bound petticoat, the delicate spot tulle right down to her leopard print heels.

You did look every inch the bride, Catherine and it was the greatest of pleasures to have been allowed to have been part of your very special day.
