Your South Wales Wedding - July/August 2024 (Issue 98)

DRESSED TO IMPRESS The Bridal Boutique Crickhowell is a luxurious bridal boutique in Crickhowell. “I have always had a passion for beautifully designed dresses and a secret obsession with the bridal industry,” says owner Yasmine John. “Close to turning 50, with children at home becoming emotionally needy teenagers, I felt it was the right time for a career change. So with the support of my partner, family and friends who said, ‘Why not?’ I launched The Bridal Boutique Crickhowell. Before opening The Bridal Boutique Crickhowell, I devoted almost 28 years to the field of health and social care, following my passion for caring for our older generation. With a wealth of experience in start-ups, business development and customer service, I felt I had the right skills to venture into the world of bridal. What could be better than seeing happy faces and helping dress them for their exceptional first day of marriage and the start of the rest of their new life? And so The Bridal Boutique was born! Within an airy, modern and private space, we specialise in bringing your bridal dream to life. You’ll find our full range of styles at your fingertips, including designers such as Pronovias, Nicole Milano, Stella York and more, as well as a comfortable viewing area for your friends and family. Refreshments are included with your visit and booking is required. With the rolling hills, tempting horizons and attractions that people travel from miles around to explore, you’re sure to make a day out of a visit to the boutique.” Exclusively for Your South Wales Wedding, The Bridal Boutique Crickhowell is offering our readers £150 off a wedding dress and a free Saturday appointment with prosecco when you mention the magazine.

WIN YOUR BIG-DAY BRIDAL FRAGRANCE For Elie Saab’s latest fragrance launch, Le Parfum Bridal, Mr Saab worked with Aurelien Guichard of Takasago House for this latest fragrance creation; Guichard was inspired by the iconic bridal dresses of the Couture House and based the fragrance around the different layers of satin and lace used by the designer. Presented in the iconic Elie Saab Le Parfum bottle, it’s adorned with a floral lace motif taken from a dress in the Elie Saab Bridal Collection – evoking the delicate lace of a bridal veil. A luminous, woody, musky scent with a floral bouquet composed of ylang-ylang and orange blossom, these dazzling notes are enveloped by Madagascan vanilla and ambroxan, while ambrette adds the ultimate sparkle to the fragrance for brides. Available from The Perfume Shop in store and online at www.theperfumeshop.com priced from £49 for 30ml. County Wedding Magazines is giving readers the chance to win a 90ml bottle for their big day.
