Brides and Clients

Lust At First Sight
My shoes were lust at first sight! And I like to think they were meant to be. I’d seen Freya Rose’s shoes in my bridal magazine, happened to have a look at her website at the very moment she had announced a sale, and when I looked at the location, her offices were based in Islington’s Business Centre only 5 minutes on the bus from my office. I booked myself a private appointment and tried on her gorgeous, classic, ivory satin Margret shoe with its round court shape, and knew they would be the perfect match for my romantic, vintage-inspired dress. The shoe clips that she creates are divine, and I found it so hard to choose that I ended up buying two pairs! I bought the Beatrice clips for the evening, matching the more “glamorous” look I was going for – they were made of inter-woven freshwater pearls and Swarovski crystal and matched in with the crystals and pearls in my hair, my bridal posy, and the halter-neck piece. The other clips for my daytime look were similar to the Blossom clips on her website, with a chiffon flower, pearl detailing in the centre, and feathers sweeping out to the side. Freya was so lovely, and is clearly extremely talented with an eye for beautiful materials and designs.

I felt very, very excited walking out of the Business Centre with my beautiful shoes and clips, all packaged in a pale nude-pink box with gold lettering and a pretty nude pink bag.

Dear Freya,
I just wanted to thank you so much for the beautiful wedding shoes I bought from you, I just loved them and they were so comfortable! I received so many compliments about them on the day and felt like a princess wearing them! I’ve attached a selection of images for you, which I’m more than happy for you to use on your website. I’ve also given you the link to our photographers website so you can see a few more images.

Hi Freya,
Thank you again for my beautiful bespoke design shoes. They were perfect! I have attatched some picture of them for you to see. I put a vintage gold and pearl shoe clip on them as you can see too.

Hi Freya!

Shoes arrived this morning in the post safe and sound and they are beautiful! Even more elegant than I could have imagined! They are so comfortable too! I can not wait to wear them on my big day and Alistair my fiance is really looking forward to seeing them too (he's not allowed to see them until the big day, same rules as the dress apply)!

Thank you so much again, I absolutely adore them. I will send you pictures from the big day in July!

Hi Freya,
Just wanted to send you some pics from our wedding at the end of last year. Your gorgeous shoes were perfect and so comfortable, I had more than a couple of comments on the mother of pearl heel....amazing.
Thanks again for creating such a unique and beautiful shoe, I literally tired on every ivory stiletto in London looking for the right one. So glad to have discovered you, keep up the fabulous work!
Photographer who took these is called Marianne Taylor.
All the best,

Your shoes made my outfit and I can't thank you enough. EVERY single person at my wedding commented on my beautiful shoes and I made sure I told them where they were from, and you do more than just bridal too...

Hi Freya,
I just wanted to say thankyou for making the most beautiful Sonrissa shoes for my wedding. I came to see you back in July (I think!) and I got married in St Ives on 2nd September. I also had the Delta bag and together they made my outfit complete!
Thankyou again!

Morning Freya
Shoes have just arrived and I absolutely love them.
The colour looks great and they fit perfectly.

Mrs. Rose,
I must say that this whole process, despite the ocean that separates us, has been very simple and seamless thanks in large part
to how professional your company has been. I had not realized that much of the time I had corresponding with Freya Rose
herself! Expect other brides calling upon your services from across the pond!
Cheers!

They had lots of success and I felt like a princess...they were elegant and classy just like we love it here in Lebanon..
hehehe...lots of people asked me all night where I got them from.
I really hope I get to see your shoes soon in Dubai and buy more of them.
Many thanks once again for my beautiful shoes and best of luck in the future.

Dear Freya,
Thank you so much for my lovely wedding shoes - they arrived the other day. They are perfect,
as are the little flowers. I have already spent a long time thinking about where I am going to
put the flowers on each of the pairs of shoes!!
Thank you again for everything. It was so nice to get such a personal service and the shoes are
so beautiful, I know I will feel great in them on my big day!
