When we got engaged we set a date just five months ahead for our wedding so I had limited time to organise a dress " most designers want 6 months. I was also not really looking forward to the finding process having been through what felt like every dress, lace, veil and general wedding caboodle shop in London with my best friend a couple of years ago and concluded that not only am I missing the wedding gene and that there is a lot of tat out there.


Johanna Hehir were brilliant, and responded to my not very helpful " ' I don ' t know, put me in dresses that you think will suit me ' approach by doing exactly that. I wanted a beautifully made, understated, classic dress with a twist of originality and that is exactly what all five I tried were. The finished dress is beautiful, a perfect fit and all the advice they gave me was spot on (for example, when a strapless dress does up at the final fitting it must be tight otherwise you ' ll be heaving it up all night once it ' s warmed up and ' given ' a bit). A lot of time was spent getting it perfect at the fittings and they also accommodated endless faffing over which necklace to wear etc, which veil, how to tie it up for dancing and so on.

The thing I particularly liked about my dress was it ' s versatility " it is very plain but had a sash and a lace shrug to wear in church " so went from church to late evening dancing very easily and it even looked good when the train was tied up for dancing. The other fabulous thing about it is that it is made of beautiful heavy silk and can therefore be dyed to wear as an evening dress which could not be done with a man-made fabric.


Johanna Hehir use beautiful fabrics and produce top quality dresses, made in the UK for each individual bride. I had a great experience and would definitely recommend.
