I created Beyond the Veil to be an approachable and stress-free environment that allows nearly-weds to be themselves.

Providing banging tunes and a glass of bubbly, Beyond The Veil is a safe haven to try on pieces and discuss your wedding plans in private, with seating for three.

A team of one, I have been sewing most of my life from reworking clothes to drag costumes, and got my degree in Fashion from Norwich University of the Arts 2020.

I started working in the wedding industry nearly four years ago and haven't looked back, it fills me with joy to be working with nearly-weds on the most exciting celebration of their love.

I specialise in creating made to order garments that are perfectly you, with samples and my own collection to try on in store to get you started with inspiration, we'll work together to find what makes your wedding special, and how we can make that come across on your wedding day.

The super cool (if I do say so myself) and relaxed atmosphere in the boutique situated in my home next to the South Downs, I guarantee a unique and enjoyable appointment that you’ll remember forever.

It is my goal to give you an experience that you will cherish and help you find the outfit that makes you feel like the best version of yourself.
