Upon entering the shop, I spied the Blume gown in the corner. I’d been wanting a lilac dusky pink theme (my partner at the time wanted burgundy jackets which felt jarring with the image I had in my head!)

I’d wanted classic and understated and tried on several gowns, fully plain white with bows very on trend and after fitting like a glove into my first try on I thought I’d found the one. Until my mum said ‘why don’t you just try that one on ‘for fun’…

Donna (the boutique owner) warned we don’t try Blume on for fun but I uttered the words ‘I love her but I’d never go for a coloured dress as I’ve chosen mine’

Words that became a mockery as I looked down and realised this was quite the most me dress I could possibly find. My mum and I both muttered the words my late grandad would have adored

the dress, tears were shed and that was it! I couldn’t stop thinking about the dress - I went back days late to seal the deal and my partner ended up finding a cream tux he loved more than the burgundy which in the end toned beautifully with the dress and our golden retrievers custom tux! - Nicola
