A Beautiful November Collaboration with Stokes Coffee and Dress Me Up
This past November, Dress Me Up, the special occasion boutique based in Navenby, Lincolnshire, had the pleasure of collaborating with Stokes Coffee in Newark on an exciting new venture. With Stokes Coffee now offering their charming venue for wedding receptions, they wanted to showcase the space with a beautiful bridal photoshoot—and Dress Me Up in Lincolnshire was delighted to provide the wedding styling.
Elizabeth and James Teather from Dress Me Up brought their signature expertise to the shoot, styling each model with precision and care. Elizabeth ensured every bride stepped into her wedding dress flawlessly, while James perfected each look by arranging the veils—earning himself the unofficial title of “veil whisperer” by the end of the evening. Their combined attention to detail highlighted the elegance, fit, and quality that Dress Me Up is known for throughout Lincolnshire for wedding dresses, ball gowns, prom dresses, and mother of the bride outfits.
The atmosphere during the photoshoot was magical. The warm, intimate setting of Stokes Coffee paired beautifully with the delicate bridal styling, creating a romantic scene that showcased both the boutique’s bridal gowns and the venue’s unique charm. The shoot perfectly reflected the luxurious yet welcoming experience customers can expect when visiting Dress Me Up for their special occasion wear in Lincolnshire.
This collaboration was incredibly meaningful for the Dress Me Up team. Seeing their carefully curated wedding dressescome to life in such a cosy and inviting environment was a truly rewarding moment. It reminded us why we’re passionate about helping brides, mums of the bride, and even students searching for the perfect prom dress—because every event deserves a look that makes you feel unforgettable.
The shoot was beautifully captured by photographer Steve Gillard, whose eye for detail ensured every elegant moment was preserved. Artist Emma Chippendale added her own magic, hand-painting bespoke backdrops that elevated the entire scene and brought an artistic touch to the bridal showcase.
We’re excited to see many couples celebrate their wedding receptions at Stokes Coffee, and we’re proud that Dress Me Up in Lincolnshire could contribute to bringing these wedding inspirations to life. Whether you’re searching for a stunning wedding dress, an elegant mother of the bride gown, a show-stopping ball gown, or a stylish prom dress, Dress Me Up remains dedicated to making your most special moments truly unforgettable.
