Widely recognised as one of Australia's premier bridal designers,
Wendy Makin Bridal Designs is sought after by both brides and bridal boutiques throughout Australia, New Zealand and the United Kingdom. With more than 30 years experience designing specifically for Australian brides, Wendy knows what makes for a stunning and memorable gown. "I like to let the fabrics design the gown," she explains of her less-is-more attitude. "I also always look for a gown that enhances a bride's best features." Wendy gleans inspiration from her wide range of fabrics and the brides she works with around Australia to fashion her simple yet stylish and elegant collections. She hand-picks only the best quality silks and laces, which she enhances with her unmatched handwork to create unique pieces for every bride. Wendy's philosophy is to 'make brides beautiful', something which she aims to do with each and every client. Her prize-winning gowns (recently being awarded two highly commended prizes in the Queensland Bride Design Awards) are available in ready-to-wear and in custom designs, but no matter what, a Wendy Makin bride can be assured that 'only the highest levels of service and attention to detail are good enough for her gown'.
