OUR BRIDES

Kind Words from Our Brides

“After visiting several boutiques in Sydney I didn’t find anything I fell in love with or had that “feeling” in.

I knew I wanted something fun, different and unexpected, but I was nervous to start from scratch not knowing what the end result would look like.

That’s when I met Nicole in her studio in Sandy Bay Hobart, from the moment I met Nicole any concerns or nerves  disappeared. Each time we met for fittings my tulle dreams came more and more to life, and she became more and more a friend.

The dress itself, wow- while a bride would usually expect her dad to tear up when he sees you for the first time, you don't expect your florist to! The reaction from family, friends and guests was not only beautiful, but most importantly made me feel beautiful. 

Thank you ❤”

“I walked into Nicole’s studio with my Pinterest app littered with ideas, a theme, and a vision I longed for. I spoke to Nicole for all of five minutes before I uttered “you have to make my dress”. It was a moment of all encompassing, giddy excitement. It wasn’t just Nicole’s mastery and finesse for creating wearable art that drew me in, albeit it’s bloody amazing. It was her. Her smile, her warmth and her love for making souls shine for who they are. Each fitting appointment felt like a catch up with an old friend. We often joked about pulling out a champas. We talked. We solved the world’s problems. We cried. We talked some more. And eventually we created this. WOW. Nicole was such an important part of our wedding journey and I could not imagine my wedding morning without her.

Thank you Nicole for being you and for becoming a light, and friend, in my life. Everybody needs a Nicole. And if you’re getting married and don’t have a Nicole, please feel free to steal mine 🤍”

"Nicole was my literal wedding dress fairy godmother. 3 months out from my wedding my original dress was not turning out as planned, so I reached out after coming across her Look 3 on the Frahn Bridal Instagram. I didn’t expect her to be able to make it in time but I thought I’d try my luck. 

 Not only was she able to help, she was incredibly excited to and without ever seeing me in person made me the dress of my dreams. She kept me updated with pictures throughout the process making suggestions and customisations to ensure the dress was everything I had hoped for - and I couldn’t have loved it more. It honestly felt as though this dress had been designed with me specifically in mind. Nicole is an insanely talented woman, a pleasure to deal with and it makes my heart burst to know her Look 3 is now known as the Alice. 

 My beautiful Nan who passed away a few years ago was an amazing seamstress - so to me it felt really special to know and deal directly with the designer and maker of my wedding dress and I’m so glad that person was Nicole. My only regret is that I didn't find her sooner ❤️ "
