New Designers

After 5 years in business there was one theme that constantly came up from our brides. We love your dresses but they just need a little bit of sparkle. Whilst we can always add a touch of sparkle to a dresses we know that brides do not want to take that risk.

So we spent 18 months searching designers that we felt we would wear at our own weddings and offered that little bit of sparkle. We tried out one but we think that designer went a little bit too far for our simply elegant brides.

Well Im pleased to say I think we have found the designer. Sophia Tolli worked as a designer for Maggie Sottero for some years she has now developed her own label.



Sophia Tolli gowns offer a superb fit and can easily lose you an inch around your waist. They are a fantastic price point and Im sure they will go down well in Freya Bridal.

Sophia's gowns will be instore from July 1st x x x

Cambrie by Donna Salado



Lauren married in January wearing the beautiful Cambrie gown designed by Donna Salado.

Cambrie by Donna Salado is a silk dupion gown that uses the folds and drapes of the fabric perfectly to create a simple but amazing detail.




Lauren was every bit the Simply Elegant bride dressed by Freya Bridal Designer Gowns Sheffield x x x

Ali By Augusta Jones



May 21st 2011 Helena married Joe in one of my favourite dresses, Ali by Augusta Jones.

Helena was one of the loveliest brides to work with. She travelled from Manchester to buy her dress from us and I was so pleased she did. The dress flattered her figure perfectly. Im proud she is a Freya Bride.



Ali by Augusta Jones moves away from the popular strapless gowns and even offers something different to on the shoulder straps that are becoming more popular. Im sure you will agree the train is an amazing feature, it adds drama whilst retaining its elegance.

Another Simply Elegant bride dressed by Freya Bridal Designer Gowns x x

Helena By Johanna Hehir



Our beautiful bride Helen was married in Cornwall wearing Helena by Johanna Hehir. She could not have chosen a more beautiful dress. Helen lived in Hong Kong so it was exciting working with her and organising fittings/delivery etc.



We were also given the chance to dress her two beautiful bridesmaids. All the fittings where photographed and sent to Helen because of the logistic. I have never dealt with a more relaxed bride to say she was organising it from such a distance.



Im sure you will agree Helen was yet another Simply Elegant bride dressed by Freya Bridal designer gowns x x x x
