At Susanne Christyne Bridal we love to meet and talk with you to learn about what is special to you to help us choose and create the dress of your dreams.
Your appointment will take place in our Redyett studio, Motherwell with only yourself and your specially selected few, giving you the time and privacy to discuss your wedding dress design ideas with us. This time is about us finding out about you. In your initial consultation we will discuss the feel and theme you aim to achieve on your wedding day, this could be: quirky and fun, romantic and whimsical, bling and glamour, bohemian and vintage, classical and traditional or modern and sexy.
When you first visit us, we recognise that there are many stages you may be at, these can include:

You can browse, try on, choose one, take inspiration from or select elements from the dresses to help visualise your dream dress and give you a clear vision.
We will listen to how you feel to firstly get the perfect silhouette for your shape, deciding on neckline, straps and sleeves. We can then refine it by looking at: fabric, detailed beadwork, lacework, train length and fastening. Lastly, we will add the finishing touches through dazzling accessories that we have in in our studio.
We will firstly recap on your initial consultation and go over every detail that we discussed for your dress, working from a sketch of your dress and fabric swatches. This will be a step by step process to give you a chance to give feedback, ask questions with the aim to provide clarity on each component of your dress. This will include: fabrics, colour, straps, depth/type of neckline, fastening and it is important to note that any changes can be made at this point.
On the same day we will take full body measurements including heel height. The design is confirmed at this stage to ensure that you are happy with every detail of your dress and once you are, we will then bring your dream dress to life.
