Stepping into my Rhonda Hemmingway dress on the day of our wedding....... wrapped me in the most sensational feeling, It was one of the best moments of the day!!! ... The material, the fit, the veil... everything was just made with love and care and absolute craftsmanship. It was such a precious dress and in turn made me feel precious!

What a talent and I will treasure what Rhonda made for me always. I had no idea what sort of a dress I was after when I came into Rhonda.... I've been a bit of a country cowgirl my whole life (I even rode my horse on the wedding day.... yes in Rhonda's gorgeous gown... OOPS!) Rhonda had my back... even after 13 years as a wedding photographer myself I still had no clue, Rhonda was like a fairy godmother! When friends asked me if I was having a "heart shaped neckline or ivory on white" I was completely flabbergasted and had no idea! I just told them I was having a Rhonda Hemmingway.... yes all my faith and trust went into Rhonda waving her magic wand and turning this paddock mess into a "glowing bride" and she did so much more than that she made me feel amazing. I was a bit anxious to let Rhonda know that I would be riding my horse in her dress... her gorgeous imported, delicate materials handmade into a masterpiece vs my horse, saddle and leather... was it such a good idea ?? hhhmmm I finally built up the courage to tell Rhonda at a fitting! She was shocked... then amazed then quickly went to working out how she could pop some extra give in the skirt to help me get my leg over the horse and not bare all to the 120 guests!! hahaha Needless to say I wasn't one of her most "straight forward" brides...! sorry Rhonda... and thanks for being so obliging! xxxx My fairy godmother on the wedding day!
