Letter(s) of the Month....

We are proud of the compliments and comments in the letters and thank-you cards we recieve... please take a moment to read a few. And... Thank you to all our Brides and Brides Mums for sending us them.

Dear Beth,

Well, you did it again! We all knew you would create something wonderfull with Jo’s dress and flowers but you still managed to surpass all of our expectations. The gown was absolutely stunning in a simple, classic style - very difficult to achieve.
 
The Marquee was just breathtaking. I am only sorry that you weren’t able to hear all the comments and compliments yourself. You and Alex did a sterling job and it was so nice to have your company. You held it all together for us.


Thank you very, very much, Love Ann
PS Wonderful attention to detail. You don’t miss a thing Beth. I shed a tear when I saw the cake Knife!

Sept 07 ~ Mother of the Bride
(Note - Gown and Flowers for elder daughter also from Elizabeth Smith couple of years earlier)

~~~~~~~~~~~

Dear Beth
 
Thankyou so much for the wonderful help you gave me.
 
As an older lady I came into your shop so concerned that you would consider me to old to wear a wedding dress. How wrong I was. You were so understanding and sensitive to my concerns.
 
From a wonderful selection we chose a beautiful gown that made me feel so special and most of all confident on the day.
Regards Joanne S

Bride Sept 07
