“I wore a mini-dress for our civil ceremony so I wanted to take the opportunity to wear a big, show-stopping dress but I still wanted to feel like me and stay true to my own style. I went to the first appointment at Halfpenny with my friend Caroline. I loved all the dresses but when I tried on the Esme and Caroline said I looked “like an adult ballerina”, I was sold.
Esme is made from the most beautiful fabric and the top layer is floral embroidered organza which was unlike anything I’d ever seen before. I loved the fitted bodice, the low back and the amazing organza train which the sun shone through beautifully on the day. I added spaghetti straps and a little belt to highlight the waist. It was absolutely perfect.”

"From the moment I walked in and met the lovely Izie I knew I was going to end up getting my dress from Halfpenny.
The designs and fabrics were stunning obviously, but the whole 1-2-1 private experience, in the most gorgeous little shop, made me feel very special."

"I had presumed two things about wedding dress shopping – one, that it might be intimidating, and two, that people in wedding dress shops would just tell you you look good in everything… But I was wrong on both counts!
Halfpenny London is the most relaxing and lovely place. And although I wanted to try on every single dress, Jean was amazingly helpful and helped me see very quickly which styles suited me. It could have been quite overwhelming, but she was wonderful."

"Thank you so much for the most beautiful dress. It was the most comfortable dress to wear, I would have worn it for days if I could and it fitted perfectly. You all made the process so special, helping me to try on many to make sure that it really was 'the one'!
No one blinked an eye at the slightly challenging scheduling we had to organise between living in South Africa and a wedding in Scotland with the dress is London. So thank you, thank you, thank you!"

"The search for my dress was long because I didn't want something super traditional. As soon as I came across Halfpenny London I knew I had found the designer for me.
I felt incredible in my dress and feel so lucky I got to wear it twice. Not many brides get the opportunity to do this! Thank you so much for making such a beautiful gown!"

"I went to about four boutiques before coming to Halfpenny London. They were all much bigger and stocked lots of different designers, and though I didn’t have a horrible time in any of them, none of the dresses were made in the UK or made to measure, the staff didn’t seem too attached to the designs or dresses and it didn’t feel very personal – but of course Halfpenny was totally different!
I first came to Halfpenny on my own, and I left feeling like I’d just gone dress shopping with one of my best friends. You get the perfect mix of feeling amazing and an honest response from the lovely ladies in the boutique."
