Welcome to the 8th and last week of Irish Wedding Vendor Series. For the month of April and May I am going to interview one vendor once a week from the wedding industry that I am really fond of. I am going to ask them questions that will give insight into their professional work.
I haven't met Alison in person before I came down to the shop. It is one of the many advantages of the series, meeting people again in a different environment. Alison got married about a month ago meaning this is the busiest time going back to work. Alison's designs would be something I'd go looking for for my own wedding. They are airy, relaxed, elegant and contemporary!

WHY DID YOU DECIDE TO BECOME A BRIDAL BOUTIQUE OWNER?
I love the bridal industry and everything about wedding dresses. I wanted to bring something fresh and new in terms of designers and I think I have done that with our fabulous collections. We wanted a beautiful setting and a luxury boutique for our brides to be!
WHAT INSPIRES YOU THE MOST ABOUT YOUR WORK?
Seeing a bride walk down the aisle in one of our dresses or receive a picture of a bride with their partner looking so happy on their wedding day! It makes it so worthwhile!
WHERE DO YOU SEE YOURSELF IN 5 YEARS TIME?
We will still be here in Kilternan with beautiful dresses, accessories, shoes and veils doing what we do best. Finding the dress of our brides' dreams!
Working with Alison's dresses on one of the shoots I cannot stress enough how helpful vibrant she is as an owner of her Bridal Boutique!
