Frances, the wedding weekend has now happened and was a real extravaganza. Wonderful outfits, venues, sights etc and I was THRILLED with my dress. I didn't see any that I liked more!
Your evening gown is causing quite a sensation amongst my friends and I just hope that there will be a smart occasion locally when they may all need a new outfit! I too am thrilled with it and will let you have any photos I get of my wearing it. Thank you: it was always a joy coming in to see you and I sincerely hope there will be many more times.

I just wanted to say thank you so much for all your devoted work on our embellishments, headresses, dresses for brides and bridesmaids. People commented all night on how fabulous the bridesmaids' dresses were, and mummy and Auntie Jane looked suitably dramatic in their feathers. I was thrilled with my dress and the sparkles in my veil. Most of all, i think, thank you for truelly providing Calm Amongst the Chaos...

Just a note to say thank you for making me such a beautiful wedding dress. It was brilliant that I was able to select the perfect materials and specify the exact style and shape - a combination of dresses I'd tried on in shops and others I'd seen on the internet. I had lots of comments on how beautiful and unique the sress was and how well it suited me. We had a great day!

My dress was an absolute hit. I couldn't wait to get it on and didn't want to take it off. I didn't even change into my evening outfit because I was so in love with my fairytale dress. I felt like a princess saying my vows in the forest. Grant loved it so much his eyes were like saucers. Everyone raved about it:- "who made it?", "where did you get it?", "it's amazing", "ethereal", "gorgeous" - it was just boundless compliments. I felt a zillion dollars and about 8 stone! AMAZING!

When I saw Frances and her products at the wedding fayre I just knew that I had to have one of her silk veils. I absolutely love my veil and it looked perfect with my dress. Frances was very accommodating and a delight to work with. I would definitely recommend her! Thank you Frances for everything you have done for me!
Chanelle Corte (nee Brown)
I was extremely happy with the item I ordered. I was able to choose the design, colour, sizing, fabric and accessories but with expert advice from Frances who guided me to make the right decisions. I received my stoal in plenty of time and it was absolutely perfect, exactly as promised. It made a brilliant gift, unique, individual and very special. I would happily use Calm Amongst The Chaos in the future. And would always consider them for bespoke items.
