Today we are excited to share a wonderful\u00a0English\u00a0wedding set in a truly noble\u00a0venue. Rebecca and Will got married on 10th of\u00a0October 2015 at the\u00a0Stoke Rochford Hall <\/strong>in Lincolnshire. The bride walked down the aisle in a semi-bespoke Sanyukta Shrestha gown<\/strong>, wearing her Jimmy Choo heels <\/strong>and a beautiful blue topaz ring<\/strong>\u00a0belonging to\u00a0her late mother.\u00a0Will’s and Rebecca’s romance began when the two met at the retail store GAP where both worked for their Saturday jobs.<\/p>\n

THE PROPOSAL<\/strong><\/p>\n

We went away to a rented mansion in Fakenham, Norfolk with family for Christmas. Will proposed on Christmas day just after the main meal by pretending to look for a present he lost in the living room away from the main family gathering. He got me to look for it and when I turned around he was on one knee. My son Dexter was also in on the proposal and was there which was really sweet.<\/p>\n

THE THEME<\/strong><\/p>\n

Elegant opulence!! Lol! It was very neutral with metallic accents and Grey<\/strong>. Grey is my favourite colour!<\/p>\n

FINDING THE DRESS<\/strong><\/p>\n

I had tried a lot of dresses on before making a special trip to London<\/strong> to visit Sanyukta\u2019s boutique Behuli<\/strong>. I tried on a couple of dresses and they were so comfortable and the materials were beautiful. I knew I would get my dress there. The staff were so helpful and really couldn\u2019t do enough for me.<\/p>\n

THE WEDDING DRESS<\/strong><\/p>\n

My Milca gown<\/strong> was a bespoke <\/strong>gown made in a different material to the original.\u00a0 The dress was not one I would have tried on originally looking at it on the hanger. I didn\u2019t think it would suit me. My bridesmaid convinced me to try it and I knew it would be the one as soon as I put it on. It made me feel the best version of me I could be. On the day I felt elegant and beautiful. The dress was so comfortable and unique.<\/p>\n

BEING A SANYUKTA SHRESTHA BRIDE<\/strong><\/p>\n

I was not aware of that Sanyukta uses fairtrade- organic fabrics<\/strong> before finding my wedding dress. However having learnt more about it I am all for eco-friendly.<\/strong> It pays to look into different fabrics. The material of my dress was truly beautiful.<\/p>\n

MOST MAGICAL MOMENT<\/strong><\/p>\n

When I walked into the ceremony room and saw all those people smiling at me that I love, all my family and friends. And then I saw Will waiting for me at the end of the aisle.<\/p>\n

SOMETING OLD, SOMETHING NEW, SOMETHING BORROWED, SOMETHING BLUE<\/strong><\/p>\n

My bridesmaids bought me an old sixpence which I stuck in my shoe. My something new was my dress, I borrowed a faux fur stole to wear over my dress for photos outside from my bridesmaid and I wore my mums ring which has a blue topaz stone in it. This last one meant a lot as my mum passed away 2 \u00bd years ago from cancer and I missed her terribly in the whole wedding process. She was very much a part of our wedding day.<\/p>\n

WEDDING DRESS SHOPPING ADVICE FOR BRIDES<\/strong><\/p>\n

I would say try on styles you think you don\u2019t like or wont suit you- you may be surprised! Always trust your gut. When you know, you know.<\/p>\n
