My veil was everything I had imagined and so much more! Anne-Marie made the perfect design to incorporate so many things that are special to me and my husband. She gave me updates throughout the process and even steamed my veil for me ready for the day. I can’t recommend getting your veil from Anne-Marie enough. I will treasure mine forever and hope to pass it on to our future children one day!

Anne-Marie made the most beautiful veil for my wedding. I first spoke to Anne-Marie a couple of months before my wedding giving her a rough idea of what I was looking for. From the very first conversation I knew I was in safe hands. She took my ideas, and created the most beautiful veil. Throughout the process she sent sample tulle, photos and embroidery. The veil added something extra to the day and I could not have been happier with it. I have since framed the bespoke embroidery which makes for a fun art piece.
I would (and have) recommended Anne-Marie to friends as she is just fantastic.

Thank you, Anne-Marie, for creating the veil of my dreams! The embroidery perfectly matched the flowers on my dress, and the personalised details made it even more special. It’s now the perfect keepsake that I hope can be used again by my future family! Having the bow with the same embroidery perfectly changed my look up for the evening - I had so many compliments!! The whole process was so easy and efficient, and you captured my vision perfectly.

I always had a dream of creating a bespoke heirloom for my daughter Xanthe. Every night before we go to bed, we say “forever and always”. These words are special to our family and are timeless. I asked for these to be embroidered along with our wedding date and initials. I dreamt of my veil being passed down through the generations and everyone adding little details of their wedding date and initials each time. Anne - Marie delivered my vision and so so sooo much more. She was amazing and brought into my vision from day one and created something beyond what I could have ever imagined. Her attention to detail and sheer talent was incredible. Thank you so much.

Anne-Marie thank you so much for the stunning veil you created for our wedding. The veil was beautiful with the intricate design, the sparkles and the scallop edges. You were super patient with the multiple date changes and were so helpful. All the wedding guests loved the veil at the wedding.

I highly recommend Bespoke veils. Anne-Marie was very thorough (much needed with a bride’s brain that can be all over the place), timely (in a week’s time we had numerous meetings and face to face calls to make sure she captures my idea 100%). She answers queries very quickly and manages expectations well. Her overall way of approaching things is “relaxed” – I.e. the opposite of the anxiety that is sometimes associated with the wedding industry. You can ask her any question! She is very creative and have the skills/craftsmanship to match it so your picture/idea is realised exactly as you envisioned it with the best quality in mind. Thank you Anne-Marie!
Annabel
Thank you so much for everything you did to help our wedding come together! Not only was the veil a delight and a complete crowd (husband) pleaser, but the efforts you went to for my beautiful dress were extraordinary. The veil is just as I had imagined, with everything we had discussed taken into account, and made me feel stunning. The frame of my design has taken centre stage at home! You are very talented and made such a difference to the wedding day - all through Covid, too. Thank you.
Louise
I am so pleased with my handmade veil made by Anne-Marie. I was looking for something bespoke that was personalised to my style but could be passed down to future generations, and that is exactly what I have got! The process was really enjoyable, we had numerous meetings to get the veil design absolutely perfect. I can not recommend Anne-Marie enough, and can’t wait to wear my wonderful veil on our special day.
Rachel
Anne-Marie was a total pleasure to deal with from start to finish - nothing was too much trouble, and each & every part of the process - from samples to keeping in touch with progress - were first class! The finished product is absolutely beautiful and I couldn't be happier. Thank you so much!
Gina
Anne-Marie provided an extremely professional, tailored and personalised service. I couldn't have been happier with the veil she made for me. She had a large range of fabrics to choose from and was able to tell me pros/cons of each so I could choose the right one for me. She took time to tailor the width and length of my veil so it provided me with the exact look I wanted and complimented my wedding dress beautifully. I had so many compliments on the day - I can't thank you enough. 5 stars!
Rhianna
When I was planning my wedding, I wanted it to be as personalised as possible to us both. I personalised each detail I could, but if I'm completely honest, personalising my veil wasn't the first thing that came to mind! When I first started working with Anne-Marie I thought I wanted something short, something simple, with perhaps just a personalised monogram. It was only when Anne-Marie pulled out the colourful veil sample she had created that I knew simple and short just would not cut it! We worked together to create a design that fit both myself and Ben perfectly. It included an off-centre monogram, a West Ham flower (Ben's team), a song lyric from when we first met and a little bird- a dedication to our pet canary Clive. Anne-Marie helped me see how much fun I could have with the veil, and make it completely my own. It definitely got lots of oohs and aahs as I walked down the aisle! Couldn't recommend working with Anne-Marie enough, none of my ideas were too mad, none too difficult, and so I've got her to thank for making me feel so unique on the day.

Anne-Marie worked tirelessly to create a complex and demanding embroidery design for my wedding veil. My Husband loved the personalised touches such as the cricket ball and wedding guests were amazed with the intricacy and level of detail included on the veil, particularly the Harry Potter elements. Anne-Marie was a delight to work with and was so efficient in replying to all of my emails straight away – one less thing to worry about with the stress of organising a wedding! In our first meeting she explained the types of veils and materials that were most suitable to the design and then she listened to my ideas and brought them to life. This enabled me to enjoy the whole process, puzzling together the different floral designs to make the final piece. I would highly recommend Anne-Marie for anyone looking for unique embroidery services for her professionalism, skill and willingness to go above and beyond to make the wedding veil of your dreams.
Amber
I just wanted to send you this email as a way of saying thank you for taking the time and effort to make my bespoke veil. When I started planning my wedding, a bespoke veil was never on the cards until I came across you! I can’t put it into words how absolutely speechless I was when you presented me with the first initial designs and then seeing it come to life over a few weeks was just absolutely amazing. Your communication was just faultless and no matter what I needed - you went far beyond any expectations. I recommend you to any future brides thinking of a bespoke veil… you are truly a wedding fairy godmother. Love amber xxx

I contacted Anne-Marie after searching for bespoke veils and reading reviews and I wasn’t disappointed. Communication was great, she understood exactly what i wanted and now I have a veil which is completely unique and I intend to pass onto my daughters if they wish. Amazing quality, good customer service, would recommend 100%
Shannon
Hi Anne-Marie, Just wanted to say a huge thank you, my veil was absolutely perfect on the day and I go so many compliments!! I loved wearing it so much, I didn't want to take it off. Thank you again, highly recommended to everyone. x
Zoe
Hi Anne-Marie, just wanted to say an absolutely massive thank you once again for my gorgeous veil! Absolutely everyone commented on how gorgeous it was and I wore it until I got into bed! Well apart from it nearly blowing into the Mersey at one point because it wasn't pinned in securely enough! I just felt amazing, loved it so much. Would recommend you to anyone, you have been brilliant xx
Christina
It was beyond a pleasure to work with Anne-Marie for our wedding last year, who's level of care and attention to detail made me feel incredibly confident in the process. I actually enjoyed our time working together creating the veil far more than wedding dress shopping itself as the whole experience was so personable. It was truly bespoke from start to finish. Anne-Marie created my dream veil, which I will treasure for years to come and hope to pass it on to friends as something borrowed, and maybe in time to our own family as an heirloom.
Amber
I ordered a bridal bow from Anne-Marie and had a wonderful experience. She was communicative and always kept me up to date. I reached out to her because her artistry was obvious, but I really appreciated that she was willing to talk things through and share multiple options throughout the process. Of course, you want your wedding to be perfect and to look great on the day, but I hesitated to be “bothersome”. Anne-Marie never seemed to mind my questions or suggestions and actually seemed to genuinely welcome them. I got the sense she wanted the product to be something I thought was perfect, instead of producing just a nice thing that anyone could call perfect. I felt like she took a lot of care with me and with the product throughout and I was really happy with the end result!
Sarah
I cannot thank Anne-Marie enough for my precious veil. The design I wanted was very sentimental to me but I struggled to find someone who would do it within my budget. Anne-Marie simply couldn't have been more accommodating, and I really appreciated the amount of contact we had with one another. From message updates, to samples, to added suggestions. She really did care about making sure the veil was exactly as I envisaged. In the end, it was even better. It's an item that I will cherish forever and look forward to one day handing down to future generations.

Anne-Marie created a veil that became the soul of my wedding and a keepsake that I will get framed. Dedicated to my late father, it was a beautiful piece of flower embroidery, blending seamlessly with the wedding's theme. The craftsmanship was impeccable, drawing admiration from my guests for its detail and heartfelt touch. Anne-Marie's easy process, and communication, made the experience feel very special. Her ability to infuse emotion into her intricate designs is wonderful, highly recommended for anyone seeking bespoke artistry that touches the heart.

Anne-Marie worked with me to create my bespoke veil for my wedding in June. I shopped around a little bit, speaking to three or four studios before choosing Anne-Marie, because I felt that she completely understood the vision I had for the veil.
Anne-Marie created a cathedral length, Spanish-style veil embroidered with arrangements of my favourite flowers. We kept in regular contact through the design process, and Anne-Marie sent sketches and sample tulle and embroidery to demonstrate what it would look like. She worked with what I liked, changing out colours, designs and flowers depending on my feedback.
The veil itself was magical. I took it to all of my dress fittings where the studio assistants absolutely loved it. On the day itself it was a complete showstopper. Everyone mentioned it, and the photographer completely rearranged the dressing room to get a full photo of it. I’m sorry that I can only wear it once, as it’s genuinely the most beautiful thing I have ever owned.
A massive thank you to Anne-Marie, without whom I wouldn’t have had such an amazing day and felt as beautiful as I did.

I just wanted to say a massive thank you for making my wedding veil, it was the most sentimental item I wore on my wedding day it was absolutely stunning and certainly a talking point of the day!! All my ideas I had in mind, Anne Marie was great, no matter how wacky they were!! Every detail was perfect, even down to carp I had asked for. You’re an extremely talented lady and I will treasure my veil forever. Thank you so, so much!!!

Truly, Anne-Marie's custom veil was the crowning glory of my wedding day! The piece was of such high quality, delicately embroidered with an array of hand-selected colours to illustrate the floral and fauna of my home in the countryside. I was involved in all decisions along the way, guided by Anne-Marie’s warm wisdom and keen eye. That attention and communication through-out the process (abundantly even from quite a distance!) made the piece feel like it realised the very essence of that sweet anticipation in the weeks building up to a wedding day.
I approached her for a design fairly late in my process (I think perhaps only three weeks left to the ceremony!) due to the pandemic and date changes. We video called and the work was swift and yet maintained the high craftsmanship you can observe in the whole portfolio. I received it beautifully wrapped in a bespoke box that was so special I kept all my accessories for the day in there too!
Overall I can't recommend Anne-Marie enough, especially in these challenging times. A veil from Anne-Marie is spun of your personality and hopes & dreams for married life. Absolutely unique heirloom art. But it's the service and compassionate professionalism which really makes the creative journey as memorable as the final garment.
Basma
I would like to thank you so much for your creation. It truly was an admired piece of work during our wonderful event. And my husband absolutely loved it and appreciated the thought and effort that had been put into creating it.
Krystie
One of the best decisions I made relating to my wedding (aside saying "Yes" to the proposal) was commissioning Anne-Marie to create me a custom veil. Anne-Marie involved me throughout, staying calm when I changed my mind on the design or was indecisive on colours etc. I was able to approve the design in principle, and was sent samples of the embroidery threads to allow me to try them next to my dress to ensure the design worked for me. Living local to Anne-Marie, also meant I was able to invite her to see my dress and we could "tweak" the designs further resulting in her creating me a veil which surpassed my wildest dreams. I had so many compliments on the veil during the wedding, and even after when people view the photos. My keepsake is that I now have my beautiful veil to treasure forever along with some wonderful memories. Thank you Anne-Marie for everything, my veil was perfect xxx
Carole
Anne-Marie was totally fabulous. Very pleased with the veil that she made for me that had our names, date and sparkles on it. It was stunning and received so many comments. Would highly recommend Anne-Marie to anyone. I can't thank you enough.
Samantha
I first met Anne-Marie at a wedding fair and we had a brief conversation about different types of veils. I had no idea there were so many options of style and material. I asked Anne-Marie if she could come and visit me and see my dress and help me choose a veil. My wedding had a very strong Scottish theme throughout it and she recommended embroidery on the veil as an option at which point I went for a combination of thistles and white roses for England and Scotland. When planning my wedding it didn't really occur to me to invest in a veil however it is now one of my favourite keepsakes from my wedding as it is so beautiful and so personal and was a key part of my beautiful photos as it was a feature with the embroidery. I can not recommend her services highly enough and I am very happy to have found her.
Brenda
I am thrilled! It looks perfect. I can't thank you enough for pulling out all the stops for me. I do appreciate it. I will be sure to mention your name to all of my acquaintance who have wedding on the horizon!
Michelle
I am so pleased with my veil. Anne-Marie helped me achieve a design that was personal to us, including a paw design in it for my cat, to adding in colour to highlight the pattern. She even managed to make the paws look like flowers! From start to finish she was a pleasure to work with and nothing was too much trouble when I changed my mind on little bits. The communication as the veil was made was excellent as well. Thank you for everything xx
Maria
Anne-Marie created the most beautiful veil for me, it was completely bespoke and individual with shamrocks, English roses, Maltese traditional flower and a gorgeous Maltese Cross centralised on the blusher. Anne-Marie listened to all of my requests, sent me her designs to proof, had absolutely no trouble with the tiny amendments I asked her to make. Absolutely nothing was a problem for her and she listened to all my wishes and created a future heirloom to be cherished forever. After the veil was made I asked Anne-Marie to create some bespoke handkerchiefs for my mum, dad and groom and again they were perfect and matched the pattern on my veil exactly. I had absolutely no doubt Anne-Marie could create the perfect veil for me and it really did look spectacular. Thank you! Xxxx
Jennifer
I loved every aspect of the process of choosing my veil. I met Anne-Marie at a wedding fair and soon became very excited at the prospect of designing my veil. I had an initial consultation to discuss all my thoughts. Anne-Marie was so welcoming, so thoughtful and able to ask intelligent questions which brought my veil to life. Following that, pictures were sent to me at every stage so I knew exactly what was happening. Anne-Marie was open to discussion at every stage and the day I went to get my veil was magical. I'd dreamt since being a little girl about my veil and it absolutely met and exceeded my expectations. It was extra special as it depicted the story of my romance and marriage. I cannot recommend this service enough. You will honestly feel like a million dollars and it will be the beat decision you make.
Nissa
As a complete novice in veil style and design, it was hard to know exactly what I wanted but Anne-Marie guided me throughout the whole process. Her experience and approach were very reassuring and I was so pleased with the results. She helped to transform some ideas from a few photos to the most beautiful veil for my wedding day even with quite a tight budget. I wish I could do it all over again! I can’t thank and recommend the incredibly talented Anne-Marie highly enough. x
Harriet
Anne-Marie made the most beautiful veil for my wedding. I was after quite a simple veil but with some bespoke details and a specific length. I spoke to Anne-Marie and she was incredibly helpful and thorough in discussing my design and sent out samples of tulle and embroidery to make sure the finish was exactly as I’d like. The veil arrived beautifully packaged and it was obvious how much care and attention to detail had gone in to making it, the scallop edging was so delicate and the embroidery detail gave the veil a really personal touch. I am incredibly grateful for all your help Anne-Marie and for creating my perfect veil, thank you!
Katy
I just wanted to say a huge thank you, I was so proud wearing my veil which captured the mix of English roses and Irish shamrocks in a subtle yet a clear way. Paddy’s family loved the sentiment and it was a lovely talking point. You are extremely talented in what you do and created a veil for me that wasn’t just beautiful, but also comfortable to wear, which as you know was important to me. Thank you for being such a perfectionist x
Fiona
Dear Anne-Marie, a huge thank you for designing and creating the most beautiful veil for my wedding day -it was absolutely stunning and got so many compliments! And thank you for making the process so enjoyable and smooth – you were my favourite wedding vendor to work with, you just made it so easy! It was so exciting seeing it come together. Thank you! Fiona x
Maddie
I could not be happier to have found Anne-Marie for my wedding veil. I knew I wanted a veil but didn't know where to begin and from beginning to end Anne-Marie was extremely helpful; she suggested lengths and discussed my vision with me in detail. The veil ended up being absolutely beautiful and went perfectly with my dress. Anne-Marie even went above and beyond when I was unable to find someone to make some alterations to my wedding dress and did them herself. As a result, both my dress and veil felt amazing on my wedding day, thank you!
