You'll have to excuse us if we're a tad excited, because if you've ever dreamed of working with a world-class designer on a luxury custom wedding gown for your big day, it is our pleasure to bring Bespoke Bridal to your attention. The brainchild of Irish designer Niamh Lynch, a former senior member of the creative team at Simone Rocha, who turned her hand to bridal fashion, and since then, Bespoke Bridal has specialised in jaw-dropping, contemporary, made-to-measure wedding dresses that are truly one of a kind. Niamh's dreamy studio in Dublin is where she creates exclusive designs for her fashion-forward brides in high quality fabrics and finishes, using cutting-edge 3D technology in pattern construction. Have we piqued your interest? We thought so! Let us tell you more...
About the Designer
With over 10 years of experience in high fashion, working on collections shown at London and Paris Fashion Week, Niamh Lynch is among Ireland's most exciting designers. As a senior member of creative teams at Simone Rocha and John Rocha, she created custom, made-to-measure garments for some of the world's most stylish ladies - Alexa Chung, Anna Wintour, Lady Gaga, and Rihanna to name just a few! She's infinitely knowledgable on fabrics and travels internationally to source the newest and most beautiful fabrics for her brides.
The Bespoke Bridal Experience
Bespoke Bridal appointments take place in Niamh's design studio directly off the Courtyard in Marlay Park, South Dublin, which is a beautiful space for her creations to come to life. With a romantic aesthetic to suit the occasion, Niamh wanted her studio to feel like the inside of a jewellery box for brides - a place to make memories to treasure. Her brides-to-be are central to the process and the consultation is a time when Niamh finds out all about 'you' and she then designs around that, along with the season, style and location of your wedding. She'll then create a custom mood board, drawing information from your style icons, to create a look that's unmistakably you. After she's presented her initial ideas, along with gorgeous, hand-picked fabrics, you'll work together to create a design you love. She can create anything you desire and this is when the magic really begins!
A Dress That Truly Reflects You - No Limits
Niamh's aim is to take away the stress that can come with dress shopping, and take away the frustration of finding only parts of what you want in stores. At Bespoke Bridal you can put all your favourite elements together into one dress that truly reflects you, and Niamh excels at making the process of designing your dream dress as relaxed and personable an experience as she can. Niamh herself struggled while shopping for her own wedding dress, so she totally understands how you're feeling. This is why she has gathered a following of clients from all over the world including the US, Hong Kong, mainland Europe, Australia, UK and throughout Ireland, with many brides opting to fly in and out for fittings.
Niamh will be right there every step of the way to gently guide you through shapes, fabrics and those special details. What makes this so special is that you are fully involved in the process and the finished gown will be a piece that is totally unique to you!
Where Skill & Creativity Meet Cutting-Edge Technology
Bespoke Bridal wedding dresses are designed and crafted in Ireland by an expert team, and so are truly limited edition. As Niamh designs each gown specifically for your likes and wishes, she can create versatile and unique wedding dresses that transform from day to evening. Think removable layers, sleeves and collars, as well as impossibly clever add-on accessories. An expert in fit and construction, Niamh employs the latest technology using 3D virtual pattern construction on your very own avatar based on each millimetre of your shape. She then applies couture techniques honed at the world's top design houses, including hand embellishment and unique fabrics to push the bridal envelope.
Her designs are timeless, sometimes bearing a high-fashion edge and Niamh's brides often say that she gave them the confidence to wear a head-turning dress that they never would have chosen in a store!

How Much Does a Bespoke Bridal Gown Cost?
A Bespoke Bridal design starts a €3,000 with the average dress being €3,500. But as the custom pattern is created specially for you, it will be completely designed around your body with no additional cost for alterations, which can be a saving of up to €500 on shop-bought gowns.
