Advice From A Silk Wedding Veil Designer

Ann Guise: I started designing at the age of 5, making dresses for my dolls on a child’s Singer hand sewing machine. Age 7 I watched an item on ‘Blue Peter’ on how to make a doll’s dress, which really got me going. Age 11 I started making my own clothes using an electric sewing machine - and never looked back.

A love story eight years in the making, celebrated A love story eight years in the making, celebrated in one of California’s most romantic settings. 🤍

FINNEAS and Claudia Sulewski exchanged vows at the beautiful San Ysidro Ranch, with their beloved rescue dogs, Peaches and Moose, taking on the sweetest role as flower dogs.

Across the wedding weekend, she wore four custom looks by @oscardelarenta, but it was the ceremony gown that truly captured our attention. Crafted in ivory silk faille, the design featured a beautifully sculpted drop waist and pleated skirt, finished with an asymmetric scarf neckline flowing seamlessly into the train. And the most perfect practical detail? Pockets. 🤍

For the reception, Claudia changed into an entirely different mood — a sleek, structured column silhouette finished with an incredible peplum of upcycled feathers and crystal embellishment around the waist. A glamorous look with a thoughtful story behind it, reflecting the values of her vegan and cruelty-free brand, Cyklar.

But perhaps the most romantic detail of all?

FINNEAS wrote the song “Claudia” on the night they first met. Eight years later, they were married — with his sister Billie Eilish there to celebrate their love. 🥹

And a huge congratulations to Finneas & Claudia! 🥂🤍

Minimalism, with a seriously unforgettable edge. ❤ Minimalism, with a seriously unforgettable edge. ❤️

At @quintadomuro in the Algarve, deep red florals and refined styling created the most striking contrast against the venue’s whitewashed architecture and surrounding landscape.

Every element was beautifully considered — from the sculptural floral arrangements and elegant stationery to the clean, contemporary details that brought the whole celebration together. Proof that sometimes, less really can say more.

🇮🇹🍋 A Sicilian celebration bursting with colour, p 🇮🇹🍋 A Sicilian celebration bursting with colour, personality and pure Italian joy. ✨

Paweł & Kamil brought the Sicily they adore into every detail of their wedding at Baglio Strafalcello — and the result was incredible.

Taking inspiration from the vibrant carretto siciliano, their celebration was filled with bold colours, beautiful florals, patterned tablescapes, parasols and tambourines for their guests. There was even pizza served from a Vespa! 🍕🛵

And the ceremony was something else… 🍊🌺 From the striking orange aisle to the colourful tiled backdrop and abundant flowers, every element felt wonderfully personal.

After almost 12 years together, Paweł & Kamil created a wedding that was unmistakably them — joyful, colourful and full of Sicilian spirit.

✨ This is exactly why we love destination weddings with personality
