The story behind Sana's dress

Nada Abuzaid is a fashion and embellishments designer from England with a brand called Venom Couture  http://www.venom-couture.com

The designer of Venom Couture, Nada Abuzaid can work with your personality and brings out the best of her clients with a unique ability to see the best in each woman regardless of shape or size, Nada can make you look your best!

"I help clients to visualise and describe their tastes and vision and my passion lies in capturing the personality and enhancing their beauty through a bespoke creation. I see the best in people and love to bring a beautiful vision to life leaving the client feeling fabulous and sparkling”.




For example Sana's wedding dress was inspired by the bride’s personal eccentricities and character, well known that she adores the colours purple and lilac and dreamed about the mermaid tail silhouette for many years. Soft Lilac and royal purple accents were applied to depict the softness and elegance of the bride's character in the form of silk satin and silk chiffon flowers were custom designed on computer and laser cut in several sizes later to be hand sewn to the dress. The dress was created in 3 layers of stretch silk satin cut to tidy her feminine curves and later a silk chiffon over lay applied diagonally over from the waist to the hips giving it the perfect opulent touch of class.

The bride described what she wanted and every step of the way from sketches/ concepts to creation, certain features were added to her personal specification as she describes how she wanted the jewelled neckline with a halter neck which was applied during the first fitting. We added pearls and Swarovski crystals.

The Client was in America and Nada Abuzaid was between Dubai and London; the dress was delivered a month before the wedding and the fit was perfect.

She designs bespoke dresses and creations for people around the world. Wherever you are she can create a high fashion bespoke dress for you and have it delivered to your door step!

If you would like a bespoke wedding gown or a party dress with embellishments simply email the designer info@venom-couture.com




 

Poem about the dress:

Today in Granada, an Eastern, Andalusian princess weds
Purple Lilac flowers adorn her white dress
She smiles, and her face lights up
She smiles, and her eyes remind me of pearls

A lady by all means,
with the soul of the wilderness
Graceful, with the heart of a Gipsy dancer
She proclaims her lover today, a king in her golden kingdom.
And so the celebrations begin…
the rose petals are scattered…
for today in Granada, an Eastern Andalusian Princess weds.

Granada and its surroundings bring together natural beauty, stunning countryside, culture, architecture as well as a wonderful climate, which makes Granada one of a kind. Here, in this privileged destination, nature is merged with a thousand year old culture, and the mountains of the Sierra Nevada with the Mediterranean Sea. Travel through the hidden neighbourhood of Sacromonte, the remote villages of the Alpujarra, be absorbed by the beauty of the Alhambra and bathe in the warm, clear waters of the Tropical Coast; only Granada has all these luxuries to offer.

Granada is often said to be one of the most beautiful cities in the world, whith its famous Alhambra palace and gardens which attract old and young alike to the city. The imposing Sierra Nevada mountains begin just 15 minutes drive from the city whith the rugged beauty of the natural park and villages nestling among its peaks. There is everything, from ancient historical houses within the city walls to rural retreats located in the rugged landscape and finally, the Mediterranean Sea. There is a wide range of venues for couples wishing to marry somewhere special, complete with all the charm and tradition of the real Spain.
