Check your diaries friends, because if you have a free evening on Wednesday 30th October then I know just where you should be heading!

RSA House are hosting a rather special evening in celebration of the launch of Sassi Holford’s 2020 Enamour Dress Collection. As well as seeing these stunning designs up close and personal, you’ll also get to meet with the bridal designer herself and chat all things sartorial for your big day!

Sassi Holford is a renowned British bridal designer with boutiques in London, Taunton and a space in The Wedding Gallery. Sassi is no stranger to a showcase or two and loves to meet brides looking for their perfect wedding dress. Sassi’s designs are all about celebrating the female form, so think classic, romantic, wearable and utterly beautiful. This latest collection is a striking combination of textures and tones. It is designed for the modern bride employing traditional tailoring but innovative in the use of fabrics, techniques and shades. Each piece is a work of art with hours of craftmanship dedicated to perfecting the flattering lines and the intricate detailing. Key elements for 2020 include diaphanous layered skirts, exaggerated puff sleeves (a personal fave), ombré organza and sequin floral tulle.

RSA House is a beautiful location in central London and one which never fails to impress me whenever I visit. The house offers Georgian grandeur fused with contemporary style, but the best bit is the surprisingly unexpected spaces such as the vaults – a superb party space underneath the house!

They promise an evening of sparkling Prosecco, stylish cocktails and you can also indulge in a charming selection of delights and sweet treats from their chefs, who are incredible btw! You can also meet their most favourite wedding suppliers and be enamoured by incredible entertainers.

Places for this event are by invitation only and limited, so if you fancy an outing with your Mum, Dad or best friend in tow, then be quick because you’ll need to RSVP to the lovely Olivia at RSA House by the end of today.

Here’s what to expect…
