Glam, rustic and full of flowers.
When taking brides on their bridal shopping experience, it's often nice to imagine them wearing the dress they pick on the big day. To picture them exchanging their vows, or toasting their partner in front of a room full of loved ones. It's good to finish the story. Which is why adore receiving wedding pictures from our real brides so much.
Natasha sent her pictures over to us towards the end of last year, and it was thrilling to see her finally get to wear her dress. As she had initially chosen her Enzoani gown with us back in 2019… Right before the whole world turned upside down. Which obviously delayed hers, and so many other couples plans.
Fortunately, and finally, Natasha and Max were able to tie the knot back in September 2022 at the Maidens Barns wedding venue in Essex. Today, we're so pleased to be sharing the pictures from the day, along with a few words about the experience from our bride.
The Real Wedding of Natasha & Max at Maidens Barns, Essex
How did you two meet?
We met at work over 9 years ago.
How did you get engaged?
A trip to Dublin for my birthday in 2019
What was your favourite moment(s) from the wedding?
My favourite moment was finally walking down the aisle 2 years later than planned (due to Covid-19!) but now having our baby girl Daisy there, who is now 1, made it all the more special.
Tell us all about your wedding dress. What details do you love, how did it make you feel?
I loved everything about my dress – especially the low back and beautiful detail. It made me feel very glam!
What was the general decor for your big day?
Lots and lots of flowers – pink and white. Rustic theme to go with our beautiful barn venue.
Do you have any advice for future Bellissima Brides?
Enjoy all the build up to the wedding as much as the day itself. Try not to worry about the small things and focus on having an amazing time!
Do you have any local suppliers you would like to recommend? A florist? Venue? DJ?
100% my florist The Orchid Room, photographer Rebecca Farries and the incredible venue Maidens Barn. All were so amazing.
How was your Bellissima experience?
My Bellissima experience was just the best!! From trying on lots of beautiful dresses with my bridesmaids and mum, which was so much fun, to collecting my dress. All the ladies are so lovely and helpful. Thank you so much.
