I’m thrilled to finally reveal my new Myth & Muse collection, a small sisterhood of dresses celebrating the true versatility of silk fabrics. In various shades of ivory, cream, gold and sable with delicate lace and appliqué detailing, these dresses emphasise the natural beauty of the feminine form. To come and feel these luxurious dresses against your skin please make and appointment to visit my new couture wedding dress shop and studio in Bath.

Having a window to dress has got to be one of the most exciting things about opening a bridal shop! Having a super-talented, incredibly generous and enthusiastic floral stylist to help makes it even more exciting! Amy is brimming with ideas and creative ways to bring a touch of nature’s bounty into my windows in a way which beautifully complements my wedding dresses. In the short time that Jessica Charleston Couture Wedding Dresses has been open, Amy has created two sumptuous seasonal displays for my window as well as two gorgeous festive wreaths for the door. Amy is a joy to work with and I cannot wait for more collaborations to come in 2014.

Amy’s approach to wedding flowers is equally inspiring, she understands how to capture nature at its best. She works closely with brides throughout the entire creative process from consultation to demo to produce beautiful flowers on the day itself providing a completely bespoke experience. Working from her tiny floral space on the outskirts of Bath, all Amy’s floral designs are natural, seasonal and delightful. And she’s just the sort of person I would want to help me plan my wedding.

To see more of Amy’s wonderful work or to make an appointment to discuss your wedding flowers have a look at the Flowers for Eddie website.

My new wedding dress shop on London Street in Bath is now open. I have transformed the shop into the perfect ‘bijou’ workspace, fitting room and display space. It’s so exciting to have a window to dress and I have a lovely view onto bustling Bath. While continuing to focus on bespoke wedding dresses I’m also expanding my collection of samples for brides-to-be to try on and get a feel for the Jessica Charleston style. I love fabrics and every time I receive a new silk or lace, I can’t wait to create a new dress from it. So come and get a feel for a silk lined dress and let your imagination run wild. We’ll have fun trying on dresses, coming up with new possibilities and rifling through delicious fabrics so you can walk away with a totally unique wedding dress in the making.
