After Six love to help Melbourne’s unique brides choose their ultimate wedding gown.

Changing lifestyles and associated expectations, as well as multiculturalism, have freed society from many traditional constraints including some of those associated with wedding design and style. The creative muses at After Six understand and cater exclusively for you – the bride – and your desire to be whatever you want on the day. Although traditional wedding gowns are no longer compulsory, they are of course always an option.

Whatever your choice of bridal gown – an exclusive After Six creation, a modified existing design, or a purchase made from available lines of top Australian designers – there are a great many factors to consider. This important and exciting decision revolves around your overall wedding plan:

• Church or civil ceremony?
• Formal/informal dress – theme?
• Time of Year?
• Budget?

After Six is aware that an event this important should never be rushed. In order for you to savour and delight in every aspect of the design, creation, and fitting of your wedding dress, After Six recommends a six month period prior to the day for shopping and ordering.

Although the tradition within Western culture has been for the Bride to wear white, not all cultures recognise white as a symbol of purity and innocence. Within some, white symbolises mourning and red is the favoured colour for a bridal outfit.

The colour and fabric chosen depend upon an individual’s colouring as much as their religious and/or ethnic preference. So remember, whilst some women still prefer a white wedding dress, other colours can be beautiful too.

The After Six staff have noticed an increasing trend towards colour choice for bridal gowns.

One of the many features of our design service at After Six involves advice and recommendation on colours and fabrics suited particularly to you, the individual.

The detailed attention provided by After Six means nothing but radiance rains on your special day parade.
