Just finished Katie Ffordes new book "Wedding Season" which was partly inspired by, wait for it, Me !It is a wonderful romantic romp through the world of the wedding planners and designers/florists etc with lots of thwarted passions, mistaken romantic intentions and great descriptions of gorgeous wedding fripperies. Perfect summer garden or honeymoon holiday reading.
I am so proud to be named as an inspiriation in the credits, I was able to give Katie some insight into the design and making process of a couture wedding gown as well as running your own studio.
The details Katie absorbed whilst on the Kindred Spirits corset weekend shine through in the character of Elsa, the wedding gown designer!
Those who were also on the corset course will remember Katie was not as bad at sewing as she claims either, despite keeping us all entertained for the weekend with hysterical stories... hurah for 24 inch waists ;)Her description of the regency party in the novel also reminded me that tickets for the regency ball in Bath in September are now sold out!!!
I shall be there of course, with my delightful friends for cake and champagne and perhaps a smidgeon of dancing....
Although not in this gorgeous silk gown which was created as last year for Kirsten, who got married in a castle!
