Nili Pandya in the Victoria Dress AND JANE SLEEVES
A classic, romantic celebration in the Botanic Gardens of Adelaide, at the height of the Australian autumn.

"I cannot describe how much I loved my dress and how I felt in it — it was everything I dreamed of, classic and timeless and felt very much me." For Nili, the Victoria dress was an immediate and instinctive choice. A boned, square-necked bodice and a full mikado skirt. The kind of silhouette that needs nothing more than the right setting, and found it entirely in the gardens of Adelaide.
THE DRESS
Nili chose the Victoria dress paired with the Jane sleeves — detachable, voluminous, and covered in a delicate layer of French lace. The combination gave her two distinct looks across the day: the clean, structured lines of the Victoria on its own, and something softer and more romantic with the sleeves in place. Classic and timeless, exactly as she had always envisaged.
THE DAY
Nili and Timothy were married in autumn at the Botanic Gardens in Adelaide. Romantic, considered, and entirely themselves.
