Samantha married
Ray, in wintry Dullstroom at a stunning Scottish wedding in May 2017.
Dimity created a sash made from Ray's family tartan which followed the Scottish
tradition that says “when the father of the bride hands over his daughter to
her soon to be husband at the altar, he will take a piece of the husband’s
tartan and place it over the bride to show that she has been given over to a
new clan". We also created the double-sided hand-tying ribbon featuring
both the bride and groom’s family tartans. This was used during the ceremony
while a poem was read to bless the marriage. Since the wedding was in Winter,
Samantha also asked Dimity to design her a jacket from her family's tartan. This
was the same tartan the bride’s mother used to dance in when she was a little
girl. The jacket featured ballet-wrap styling and a shawl collar to finish off
her ultra-feminine bridal look.
A few words from the bride: “I cannot thank the wonderful ladies
at Dimity for the stunning traditional touches they created to help perfect the
day of our dream. ”
