A courthouse wedding dress has a particular task: it should feel like an occasion while staying understated and easy to wear through the ceremony, the lunch afterwards and the photographs. This edit gathers our white, ivory and cream designs for a civil wedding or city hall ceremony, an elopement, an engagement party or a rehearsal dinner.

The pieces are cut in fabrics with character. Taffeta has a soft sheen and holds a sculpted shape; satin falls smoothly; crepe gives a clean, minimal line; lace and chiffon add softness. Silhouettes range from a mini dress with a cape-style off-the-shoulder neckline to A-line midi and floor-length designs with draped or corseted bodices. As a civil wedding dress, an elopement dress or a white engagement dress for photographs, each is designed to be worn again afterwards. In Singapore, the same designs suit a ROM or solemnisation ceremony.

Each piece is made to order in its standard sizes, with custom sizing to your measurements; the size range is shown on every piece, drawing on three generations of tailoring. If you have a date, tell us when you order. For more designs in these fabrics, see taffeta and silk and satin.
