What inspired you to start your business?
The recession was our inspiration, we realized that brides out there still want an amazing big day on a shoe string.
In 2009 I was one of those brides and I went through hell and back trying to have 2 fabulous weddings for £10,000. I did it, and everyone was amazed at what I had achieved on such a small budget.
Friends started asking for help to cut the cost and before I knew it. I had turned helping others to a full time job and that where Lady Primrose Weddings was created.
What do you enjoy most about your job?
Selling amazing dresses from as little as £99. The best and most satisfying feeling is when a bride receives her dress and tears of joy are shed.
Brides cannot believe our huge selection and what beautiful dresses they can have for a small price. They are surprised at the quality of our dresses. I love my job.
What has been the best moment of your business?
Our website going live and selling 16 dresses in less than 24 hours. That was amazing.
What are your plans for the future?
To move to our new office in February and to offer more products and services. To grow and keep listening to our customers.
Can you give us a ‘Typical day in the life of….’?
Get up check for orders placed overnight and reply to emails. On the way to work, I text appointment confirmations for bridal trials.
Get to work and arrange products requested for the bridal trial, Hair and Make Up artist arrive and I debrief them on the client`s requirements.
Bride arrives for the trial. Hair and Makeup gets done then the dress trial starts, usually takes
1 1\2 hours. Take some pictures and we are done.Cake maker arrives and talks to bride about what they want for their big day, we say our goodbyes and next client should be arriving.
We understand our brides are busy, so we usually get the Cake maker, Hair & Makeup artists in on the same day as the dress trial, this saves a lot of time.
Lady Primrose weddings have a great offer over on our website
