  1. Claudia’s Statement Hairpiece: Modern Romance in Bloom

When Claudia walked down the aisle in Bristol, all eyes were on her Cherry Blossom hairpiece in dusty pink. Inspired by early spring blooms, this piece was designed for the bride who values calm over clutter, softness over sparkle. Lightweight and flexible, it sits comfortably in undone buns, polished chignons, or flowing waves — no fuss, just beauty.

“It was my favourite part of my overall look – even over my dress.”

2. Zenah's Dream Look: The Wild Rose Crown

Bride Zenah made a stunning statement on her wedding day wearing the Wild Rose Crown in white. Handmade and full of floral charm, this crown added a dreamy, romantic touch to her bridal look.

The Wild Rose Crown is all about timeless beauty with a bold twist. Crafted by hand with white clay roses, pearl details, and a silk ribbon, it’s designed to turn heads while still feeling elegant and soft. Perfect for brides who want something truly unique.

“I received so many compliments from everyone. It was such an original piece that I will cherish forever. Thank you so much.”

Zenah paired her floral crown with a flowing gown and sleek, soft bun, keeping her jewellery minimal to let the headpiece shine. The result? Effortless, radiant, and completely her own.

Real bride Louisa shows how my statement mid sized Iris hoops can be paired with a delicate little hydrangea hairpin. Louisa added a personal twist to her look with custom floral hairpin created just for her. A white hydrangea with an Aquamarine center adding a touch of blue to her flower. Both pieces came together to create a refined and coordinated finish. Sometimes it’s the little touches that can make a difference.

“Adore these earrings so so much. These and my hair pin were a stunning feature to add elegance. So many compliments about them thank you”
