This month we are shining our Vicki's spotlight on the lovely Maddie, who got marriage in September 2024. Maddie first came to us in September 2023 to try our Kate Fearnley dresses that we had on loan. So without further ado lets hear about Maddie's wedding journey.



Starting right at the start, how did your partner propose?

Stunning so  when and where did you get married?

6th September in Petworth


 What colour/ theme did you go for?

Burnt orange / Autumnal 

 One bit of advice for couples planning a wedding - Make sure you stay together as much as possible on the day. It goes so quickly and you want to make sure you enjoy it together

 Shopping for your dress... Tell us about it?! 

I was so nervous as I’m not usually a dress person but Megan made the whole experience great. As I missed the Kate Fearnley trunk show, Megan kindly brought some of Kate’s designs in for my fitting. I fell in love with my dress!


Highlight from your Big Day.

Aside from marrying the love of life… The food was amazing! Everyone should visit @estreetbarandgrill in Petworth!

This March, our Vicki's dress of the month is from the 2025 Kelsey Rose collection, Aurbielle.


Sliena was the first dress we got a sneak peak of this time last year, and we were so excited. Her placement of a bold floral motif on the bodice was something we just loved and hadn't seen before. Teamed with Kelsey Rose's soft tulle a-line skirt, available with an Ivory or Mocha lining, she is the perfect whimsical bridal gown.


Her soft cap sleeve, semi sheer bodice and plunge neckline give a beautiful famine shape, complimented on the soft skirt.


Available in UK sizes 6-24

Ivory/Ivory, Ivory/Mocha

The British Bridal Designers are a collective that do not get championed enough and here at Vicki’s Bridal Boutique we want to change that! Because lets not forget the classic bridal look we know and love started right here in the UK, with some of the most iconic throughout history being designed by British Designers.

And the quality of each bridal gown they create is second to none. The use of high quality fabrics, to the finishes of each wedding dress, puts British designers up there with the best in the industry. 


Understanding of British Brides.

With the gowns being designed and sometimes made in the UK, they have British Brides at the forefront of everything they do. They take time to research trends and what the British brides are looking for each year. They understand that British brides like that nod to traditions, even if it is not their main focus for their big day. Furthermore, they understand that the British Bride is somewhat more conservative than others, but at the same time with still want to be a little alluring.




Timeless Designers

Our designers create designs that will remain timeless over the years. You will see details and styles repeat from collection to collection. Embracing the true essence of British design. They are forever looking for ways to elevate the styles of the past to make them work for the present bride.
