Scarlett's love story began unexpectedly on Tinder, where she connected with her future spouse, Georgia. Despite not seeking anything serious, they quickly discovered shared interests and realised their paths had nearly crossed several times before. This sparked a belief that the universe had finally brought them together at the right time.
The couple's engagement was as meaningful as their meeting - Scarlett proposed at her favourite seaside spot in Dawlish Warren Beach. Inspired by their engagement and eager to start their life together, they planned their wedding in just six months.
Choosing a venue that seemed like a hidden gem abroad, they celebrated their special day under perfect skies, which Scarlett likes to think was her father's doing from above. For her wedding attire, Scarlett opted for something deeply sentimental: her father’s wedding suit, which had been meticulously preserved for over three decades. Finding a tailor willing to alter a man’s suit for a woman was challenging, but Sharif Tailoring welcomed the task.
Adjusting to the high-waisted trousers meant for her taller father was initially a concern for Scarlett, but the final fit made her feel both elegant and connected to her dad’s memory.
This sentiment was echoed by guests who remembered the suit from 32 years ago and praised its revival.
The wedding was a family affair, with Scarlett’s mother and grandmother also choosing suits, adding to the day's uniqueness.
Scarlett is profoundly grateful to Sharif Tailoring for their expertise and sensitivity in adapting her father’s suit, making it possible for her to wear a piece of her family history on her special day. She's already looking forward to another occasion that might call for another unique suit creation from Sharif Tailoring.
Scarlett’s wedding was not just a celebration of her new beginning with her Georgia, but also a beautiful homage to family ties and the lasting importance of cherished memories.
