Following the incredibly successful launch of our new 2011 gown Collection to the trade at the British Bridal Exhibition last week, 
we have one more big exhibition in our diary this year, namely the new and innovative Modern Bride Show. You may have seen this advertised in various bridal magazines and websites over the last few months, and just from the look and feel of those, you’ll note that the Modern Bride Show really is something a little different. Aptly the tagline for the Modern Bride Show is ‘the contemporary wedding show’. This really is the place to go for all brides that are looking for something that little bit different and a little bit special…(well, a LOT special!)…
This event is an inspiring showcase environment where you can spend a single day short-listing everything you need from around 150 great companies. The Modern Bride show is a genuinely 2010 destination which, unlike most current wedding shows, truly reflects the modern bride’s sense of style and her aspirations. You could choose to start your exhilarating adventure with a special river taxi; and will arrive at a very special place where every detail echoes the quality of the experience you’re looking to create on your wedding day. The centre piece of the event is the gorgeous catwalk show and Madeline Isaac-James gowns will of course be a part of this tremendous catwalk show! Beautiful, chic, professional, it’s like a press show – intimate, and designed to leave a lasting impression. With an incomparable selection of designs and styles from fashion forward to traditional, it is the modern bride’s “most inspiring fashion event of the year”.
We will of course be showing our new collections at the Modern Bride Show, not only my latest gowns but also our new ‘Charleston Collection’ – a beautiful vintage inspired hair accessory collection designed and hand-made in England exclusively for Madeline Isaac-James by the talented Paula Marsh of the Vintage Sparkle Company. All pieces from the Charleston Collection will be available to order at the show (and there will be some limited stock available to purchase immediately), so don’t miss out on both our gowns AND our hair accessory collection.
In addition to meeting both me and my team, check out a selection of our gowns in the amazing catwalk show. Beautifully presented and professionally produced, the catwalk shows will highlight the very latest trends in bridal design from the top designers at the Modern Bride Show. Our stand is right next to the catwalk, so make sure you either visit us before or right after the show – you can’t miss us! The Modern Bride show will be held at ExCel in London from 5th-7th November, and tickets are now available. See www.modernbrideshow.co.uk for more details.
Whilst totally gorgeous bridal fashion is, of course, at the core of Modern Bride’s fashion offering, there is also something very special lined up for the all-important supporting cast. Brides magazine will be hosting a boutique style show, with expert commentary and insight direct from the style show sofa, featuring fashion and styling for the groom, mother of the bride and bridesmaids.
We’re really looking forward to this show and to meeting lots and lots of bride-to-be – it’s a must to visit this beautiful show if you’re getting married in the next 12-24 months – not only for my amazing collections (she says modestly!) but also to get inspiration and ideas from many fabulous, high quality, wedding suppliers. We look forward to seeing you there! xx

I’d like to thank everyone involved, including the GREAT MIJ team – Clive, Paula, Rebecca, and Seon- who helped make the show such an amazing success!

The Manhattan hairband is a vision of elegance, successfully combining sparkling crystal elements with creamy pearls. A simply stunning piece that works well with most gown styles and which can be worn in a variety of ways. We’ve teamed this gorgeous hairband with our ’Tuesday’ gown, and it really did take our breath away!
