What a perfect day for a perfect couple! It was an absolute pleasure being involved in Frankie’s wedding day perfect to see a school friend in the most perfect dress!
Sean & Frankie got wed on Saturday 19th March 2018 at st Mark’s Church followed by a reception over at Onley Grounds – The first wedding there but with the fun these guys had it will be a hard wedding to beat!!
Let’s hear Frankie’s take on her and Sean’s Big Day…
The Dress….
I visited Sammi Lou with a particular dress in mind on one of her designer weekends. It was simple, plain but had lace detailing on the back as a bit of a statement. We had decided on a low key wedding more of a party atmosphere than a formal day so in my mind I wanted a glam evening style dress. I wanted a fitted dress for a change as I always choose a line when I go out as it suits my shape better. I tried on several dresses to give all options a go but finished with the one I had in mind. When I put it on I felt it needed a little more glitz to the front of it as it was a bit too plain and simple from the front. We discussed having some detailing added to it as an option but Marie had already known I would think this and had another dress waiting in the room which I assumed was from a previous customer. I would never have chosen the dress from the hanger I even said I didn’t like the look of it but Marie said honestly try it on. As soon as I put the dress on I knew it was the one I was after! Marie had already found my perfect dress before I had even got to the shop she was absolutely amazing! After a few months of leg and bum exercises the dress fit like a dream and alterations were a minimum. My dress was all I had imagined and hoped for!
Frankie chose style 8764 from our Justin Alexander collection.
The Love Story….
Sean and I met as I was cutting his parents hair at their home one evening we he called in to visit them. We both instantly felt shy and embarrassed as his parents watched on hoping we would talk. Sean helped me to my car with my bags and from then we felt a connection. After weeks of talking as friends we realised we really liked each other. After just over 2 years of being together and Sean claiming at the start he doesn’t want marriage in his life he surprised me one day on a day out in Stratford by asking me under a tree in the park! I was shocked and so happy it was all very emotional! Sean is my soul mate and my saviour we have been together 4 years now and I can honestly say I would be lost without him. He is kind, caring and is always making me laugh. We share the same silly sense of humour and I am looking forward to sharing our lives together and making memories!

Frankie’s Most Memorable Part Of Their Big Day….
We had a later wedding so naturally the bridal party watched the Royal wedding! I just remember having an amazing time dancing all night and ending the night singing Kings of Leon Sex on Fire with the band on stage. The day was all we had hoped for and more and it was made by all our friends and family being there to enjoy it with us.
