Our Favorite Dresses From Real Weddings
We started sharing real weddings to bring you some of our favorite wedding dresses from real brides just like you!
We love looking at pictures from real weddings. The first looks, jaw-dropping ceremony backdrops, and oh-so-special details make us swoon, but nothing takes our breath away quite like a real bride in her wedding dress. And who better to take inspiration from for your own big day than these real-life women in their gorgeous ...gowns? So we asked our clients to share these pics of real weddings and focused on the real deal—the wedding dress!
Some of our wedded clients searched for months for that elusive dream dress, while others fell madly in love with the first frock they ever slipped on. There are brides who went formal in opulent tulle ball gowns, and others kept things simple and chic in modern sheaths. But one thing all these lovely ladies have in common is looking effortlessly beautiful on their wedding day in gorgeous gowns just as unique as their nuptials.
These real brides all said their yes to the perfect dress and now it's your turn. Feeling inspired yet? keep on following us on all of our favorite bridal gowns from these real weddings
This week featuring our gorgeous client With a floral illusion bodice and flowing skirt of English net and tulle, Harriet’s wedding dress was undeniably romantic.

Free-Spirited Ways to Be a Gorgeous Bohemian Bride!
I’m inclined to think of rustic or vintage boho as very much an American thing but our beautiful bride Teesh, are here to prove that moody vintage and rustic boho weddings go down just as much a treat in the chilly UK and judging by these gorgeous pics, the genre feels right at home…. anywhere in the world!
When it came to picking the perfect dress, bohemian goddess Teesh choose to wear a 2-Piece dress . We were swept away b...y the pictures, perfect to the last stitch and fitting like a laid-back boho wedding gown glove! She look absolutely gorgeous and even more excited by just how chill and comfy she must have felt in it the whole day!
Way to go Teesh! Wishing you a lifetime of love and happiness.

THE MAKING OF A BESPOKE WEDDING DRESS: THE PROCESS & A WEDDING SNEAK PEEK!
Creating a Bespoke One Day Gown is an exciting and in depth process. From the shape of the gown, to the fabric and finishing details, LA SARTORIA team of designers and dressmakers thrive on creating these one of a kind gowns.
Our latest Bespoke creation for our beautifull client Vichy’s. A statement gown made from a white hot gorgeousness in a sumptuous silk cady . The dress blew us away with the unde...rstated regal elegance. A Roman toga princess or a Greek goddess ? Take you pick - this shoulders draped column gown and a V- neck hints at the shape of figure while maintaining a semblance of modesty
In order to create this incredible wedding gown, We had a number of important fittings, each fitting an important step in the process of ensuring an inspiring design is executed perfectly. Over the construction process in the few months leading up the wedding our team of dress makers work towards to ensuring the gown fits like glove and finished to the highest quality.
To Vichy : You looked absolutely stunning and gorgeous in your special day - now have fun , enjoy your honeymoon and a whole life together ! Congratulations to both of you !!! Wow!!!😀

What fantastic service! I needed a very last minute bridesmaid dress alteration and they accommodated me same-day and did an absolutely beautiful job. Staff are friendly and professional and I'm delighted with my dress. Thank you so much for rescuing me!!!

They have removed the hood on my Armani Jean jacket (which was always too big), and I could not be more pleased.

Excellent.

They are making photos coming into life! The most creative and passionate tailors I’ve ever met! They made my wedding dress as I had dreamed it of! Totally recommended! ���

Love my newly-lined coat. It was a bit tricky round the collar, and I'm very happy with the result. Lining is a good quality material and a very pretty pink.

La Sartoria were great at adjusting my wedding dress so it fitted perfectly. Very professional and super friendly staff who made the experience fun and resulted in a dress I absolutely loved.

La Sartoria did a great job of altering my wedding dress, even with short notice in peak wedding season, and the price was very reasonable.

Ilenia made a new cover for my Boppy pillow, choosing a fabric of her liking... it's gorgeous and much better than the original! Thank you, I really love it :-)

I've asked La Sartoria to make Roman blinds for the windows of my new home. Ilenia and her staff understood exactly my requirements and delivered the blinds really quickly.

I now have a unique accessory in each room, that fits perfectly with the colour scheme of floors and walls, having chosen the fabric myself. I am extremely pleased with the result!

I'm so impressed with La Sartoria's service and attention to detail that I would give more stars if I could. They were able to handle the tricky job of fixing my leather boots on a very tight deadline, going above and beyond the expected levels of service to make sure I had them in time. I can't recommend La Sartoria highly enough for both skill and service - and at a very reasonable price too.

I'm really pleased with my wedding dress alterations, I had the train shortened the front slightly lifted to wear again for our wedding reception. I will dance the night away very pleased with my dress! It was 8 layers and lots of lace and it was perfectly finished! Thank you so much, really friendly, bubbly service and felt in great hands. Will recommend to friends and family.

I highly recommend La Sartoria. My trousers needed altering and I wanted to make them suit to dance tango. I had my fitting performed by Ilenia. She was very patient and paid attention to everything; in particular, I liked the fact that she was making suggestions and explaining things rather than just concentrating on the areas of my concern. My trousers were ready in 1 week and looked absolutely stunning when I tried it on: they had been altered to a very high standard and hand-finished on the inside.

The boutique itself is really a nice place with a friendly atmosphere. I am a huge fan.

I had a dress totally altered in 3 days for an Asian Wedding my husband and I attended. The ladies did a fantastic job and i was totally pleased with the outcome. Thank you La Sartoria �

I couldn't find a wedding dress to suit my style so I found a vintage dress in a charity shop and La Sartoria recreated it into a beautiful, bespoke garment.

Everone commented on how lovely it was and I felt great wearing something that had been made so well, and just for me.

The staff were very friendly and helpful with suggestions and I enjoyed the whole experience. I definitely recommend La Sartoria for personalised wedding dresses!

Had new suit trousers adjusted - very happy with the quality of work/stitching, price/service and knowledgeable staff

Had 4 Maxi dresses taken up, one maxi altered to below the knee, & a dress taken in on the arm holes.Over the moon with the results.Lovely friendly staff.Highly Recommend.Thankyou Ladies.

Excellent service!!

Came in a couple of months back to get suit trousers adjusted - they were turned round really quickly. Top service.

Another amazing job by the fabulous ladies at at La Sartoria! Created a gorgeous window seat which I can’t wait to laze sit and read on �

Amazing service to 'upcycle' a silk coat into a stunningly beautiful new dress. Thank you La Sartoria, can't recommend you highly enough.
