All Things Pink! Hannah’s Pink Wedding Dress and More!

Here’s to the nonconventional bride who dares to defy wedding traditions! Hannah’s wedding is a unique one in more than just her floral pink wedding dress, but also by the fact that her pony, Dudley, walked her down the aisle along with her father! Not to mention, Dudley’s plaited hair adorned with pink bows!

Hannah’s love for pink didn’t stop there, in fact her wedding bouquet, bridesmaids dresses, wedding cake and other parts to the wedding were coloured pink too!

This addition to our Real Wedding series tells the tale of the union of Hannah and Tom. The pair were engaged in the city of love, Paris and celebrated their wedding amongst family, friends and Hannah’s pony Dudley. Here’s a sneak peak of her special day!

Tell us a little about the proposal and the lead up to the wedding?

Tom proposed to me in Paris on the Ponte Des Arts or love lock bridge. He had a lock engraved with our names and as we bent down to put the lock on the bridge out popped a little box with a diamond!

Talk to us about your dress, where is it from? how long did it take to find etc etc

I hated wedding dress shopping.. loathed it. Until I walked into Wendy Makin Bridal and found my pink wedding dress – this was custom fit to my body and I fell in love instantly.
