When I got engaged last year, my fiance and I never had a lot of money for an expensive wedding let alone dress. I have always envisaged myself getting wed in a princess ballgown, so I decided to make one myself with the help of my aunt,the seemstress
The £150 ‘before’ dress
The back of the before dress
The layers of the old dress were used to make the under skirt
New lace being beaded by hand
thousands of beads and swarovski crystals were taken off the bodice of the old dress and hand sewn on the new dress
