Jessica wears Arabella Block dyed Green with Blossom Silver

"I chose Harriet Wilde for my wedding shoes as I loved their creative designs and the bespoke service was just what I was looking for as I wanted my shoes dyed a specific colour. The Forest Green was a beautiful rich teal colour and the Arabella block heel was the perfect style for wearing all day and night. 

The service from Harriet Wilde was exceptional, they sent me a pair of the heels to try on before the dyeing process to check the fit as well as the embellishments I had chosen. Then it was just a matter of excitedly waiting for the finished result!

A special part of our wedding day was our wedding car, a 1967 VW beetle which I had learned to drive in at 17. I used to pick my then boyfriend (now husband!) up from the train station in the beetle when he came down to visit in the early years of us long-distance dating. The colour of the car is a beautiful teal colour which I wanted my wedding shoes to match. 

In the months before the wedding, my Dad painstakingly spent hours of his time restoring the much loved car to its former glory and his hard work definitely paid off, the car was stunning and almost stole the show! One of my favourite parts of the day was my Dad driving me to the church in the bug and having to remove the passenger seat so I could fit in the back with my dress! We also got our bridesmaids dresses in a similar teal colour and customised them with silver belts from Etsy, similar to the embellishments on my shoes, and my best friends looked absolutely beautiful. 

Thank you Harriet Wilde for making my wedding shoes dream come true! I now plan to wear them every year on our anniversary and we're looking forward to celebrating our 2nd anniversary this year with our brand new baby girl. I'm sure one day she will be trying them on herself!"
