Kate Walker Bridal, Honiton Interview

Overall I thoroughly enjoyed my interview with Kate Walker and learnt a great deal. In the same way I was inspired by the success of Wedding Time, I am very encouraged by the success and demand for designer bridal gowns in the local area. I was interested to hear of the increasing popularity and demand of bespoke wedding gowns however perhaps this is another indication that consumers have an increasing desire for quality products that justify their cost.

Kate’s boutique is very similar to how I envisage Wholehearted Bridal boutique; it is modern and luxurious however so homely and welcoming that it eliminates any feeling of intimidation. I love the fact Kate can be so hands on, designing and constructing her own bridal gown designs as well as altering other designs.

Kate has many years of experience in the bridal industry which without doubt has helped her to understand what it takes to run a successful bridal boutique.
