Client Corner ~ Sarah

Gals,

Every now and again we receive pictures from all over the world by our clients and brides. We utterly gasped when Sarah sent us through her pics of her gorgeous wedding day in Italy. Sarah looks absolutely adorable, a bride straight from the pages of Italian Vogue if you ask me! I adore the vintage styling in Sarah's gown and her hubby looks equally 'dapper' in his tailoring.

Sarah opted for our Carina Long Sleeved Bolero in ivory raw silk to compliment her gown and we think she pulled off the entire look beautifully.

We would like to extend our sincerest gratitude to Sarah for inviting us to be a part of such a special day for her and we hope you guys both enjoy the journey of life together.

Thanks to Sarah for letting us peak into her wedding day celebrations, it always makes our day to receive wedding pics back!!!

Studio Bonzie 101.

Hi gals, thought it might be nice to follow the last post with a picture of the studio as it looks now. The previous pictures show the shed/studio when it was first bought and its been a long time since it looked as bare and spacious as that!

If you would like to see more of the studio space and how it all works you can catch more in the upcoming book "Where Women Create:Book of Inspiration", available to buy from Amazon.com and Barnes and Noble this coming April 2010.

New Gold Masquerade Corset.

Available to purchase soon from our etsy store, www.bonzie.etsy.com

Irish Brides Magazine Feature!

Gals, we have been so looking forward to sharing this particular magazine feature, and as publishing goes, its important to only share the news after its been released to the public. We had an opportunity to work with one of Irelands top stylists Tanya Grimson and we were blown away by the results, very hauntingly beautiful and with a really mystical aesthetic, its been so incredible to be involved in such a high profile collaboration.

We hope you gals like it too..

Client Corner ~ Liz

Hi Gals,

Its been a long time since we checked in with you all, a lot has been happening over the last wee while. The laptop took a sabatical for quite some time whilst my charger decided to give up the ghost so I have been without all my photographs for ages and finally have managed to get the technology back in action again. I was also away on my holidays for a week in London with my sister and we had an amazing trip so theres lots of catching up to do here in the studio.

One of the loveliest things to come home to is photographs from our brides of their wedding day and how our piece worked out with their ensemble. One such bride was Liz who actually bought her wedding dress around her teal bolero and chose something that would compliment it overall. I love the pop of rich teal color within Liz's look, its a really fresh approach to bridal and really adds a new dimension to the traditional color palette. Liz was such an awesome client to work with and we are so chuffed to have featured in her special day.

We wish Liz and her new Hubbie the best of all that Married life has to offer. xxxx

Fabulous Bridal Blog find!

Gals,

We were so excited to receive a wee email today from the talented folk over at the "Inventing Weddings" Blog. Bonnie wrote to us to let us know that one of our boleros had been recently featured in a post over there on Bridal Shabby Chic. I immediately went over for a visit and I am so glad to have found this particular blog. This is an absolutely fantastic resource for the style savvy bride who is hoping to inject a little bit of something special into their big day.

Bonnie takes a color scheme and theme and creates truly beautiful mood boards, like the one above, bringing together an array of handmade pieces, mostly from http://www.etsy.com/ and provides color palettes, fonts the whole shebang. Its a practical wedding planner at your fingertips, and one with bags of style, a veritable feast of ideas and online resources. I got lost scrolling through the various different wedding themes and I can only imagine what a great resource and inspiration this site would be for brides planning their own big day.

If your wondering where to begin in terms of your wedding theme why not pay the Bonnie a visit at http://www.inventingweddings.blogspot.com/. Your creative juices will be overflowing afterwards!

In Style....
