The Elite: Caroline Castigliano interview
Caroline Castigliano is one of the UK’s favourite wedding dress designers and I’m delighted to say she’s joined The Elite on English Wedding with an interview for you today.
With a history of impressively elegant, gracious and luxurious wedding dress collections, the Caroline Castigliano brand is soon to celebrate 21 years in the wedding industry. It’s a fabulous achievement and an inspiration to see such quality and style from a bridal designer at the very top of her game.

This little gem landed in my inbox this week, so as a parting note for the week I thought I’d share it with you.
Leading luxury designer Caroline Castigliano today unveiled stunning new photography of her 2012 Bridal collection.
Shot on location at The Dorchester on London’s Park Lane, the new images showcase a range of gowns from the ‘Oscar Collection’, in sumptuous surroundings befitting Caroline Castigliano’s luxurious and elegant designs.

Exclusive new Caroline Castigliano 2012 collection — next week!
EXCLUSIVE NEW CAROLINE CASTIGLIANO 2012 COLLECTION LANDS NEXT WEEK
An exclusive range of brand new designs from leading luxury bridal designer Caroline Castigliano will be available from the beginning of October.
A selection of gowns from the exquisite 2012 collection will be delivered into Caroline Castigliano boutiques next week, giving brides the chance to be the very first to wear exclusive Caroline Castigliano designs.
A number of independent bridal boutiques in areas across the UK, including Cheshire, Hampshire and Staffordshire, will also stock a selection of the new designs. This is the first time ever that the highly coveted designer has been available outside of her own boutiques, giving more brides the exciting opportunity to wear a dream Castigliano gown.
New wedding dress designs — elegance by Castigliano
I’ve been learning about wedding dresses this week, viewing some beautiful designs in a top bridal store and finding out a lot about trends within the industry — what are the designers doing — as well as trends for brides — which designs are popular for real brides.
More of that later, but for now I’ll share this with you: the latest catwalk show by Caroline Castigliano, which was held as part of the brand’s 20th anniversary celebrations at The Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park in London.
Do something spontaneous this week!
I don’t like the phrase “wedding planning” — never have. In an ideal world we wouldn’t all need spreadsheets for our budgets and we’d float along happily picking up beautiful things along the way, with it all coming together just right on the big day.
So… the perfect antedote to the whole planning thing? Do something spontaneous. Like, perhaps — well are you free on Thursday night? Why not glam it up, nip down to The Mandarin Oriental in Hyde Park and enjoy the Caroline Castigliano catwalk show. There’s champagne to be supped and some of the most exclusive names in the wedding industry to be hobnobbed with.
Caroline Castigliano 20th birthday celebrations
How exciting… the Caroline Castigliano brand is 20 years old in January and you’re invited to the birthday party!!! That’s if you’re quick…
Happy 20th Anniversary Caroline Castigliano!
Suzy from Caroline Castigliano sent me all the information this evening and I’m simply going to share it, so over to Suzy to tell you more!
“I have some fantastic news to share with you and your readers! Here at Caroline Castigliano we are extremely excited to be celebrating our 20th Anniversary! January 2011 sees Caroline celebrating 20 years at the forefront of luxury designer bridal wear!
Win a luxury break for two
What do I love best about Caroline Castigliano? Hmmm.… Her wedding gowns are out of this world, she’s a UK bridal designer who specialises in the most sophisticated styles imaginable, there’s a new website, Facebook page, Twitter feed and more… that could be my favourite thing…
Ah, I’ve got it: it’s the great prizes that come with the new Castigliano Club. First a designer wedding dress worth £5k earlier this year, and now a luxury break for two. It’s a real taste of the Caroline Castigliano lifestyle… spa treatments, a butler for a weekend? Yes please!!!
Lucky lucky bride
It’s every bride’s dream — winning a wedding dress by your favourite designer, being styled and pampered by the experts and having them create your perfect dress. Amazingly, for lucky London bride Laura May, her dream just came true!
Caroline Castigliano launched her new website a couple of months ago, along with all-singing, all-dancing social media updates via Facebook and twitter, a blog and lots of behind-the-scenes photos and even fashion shoot videos.
Luxury bridal store relaunch near my house!
Caroline Castigliano boutique in Wilmslow, Cheshire, home of the minted.
Well, maybe not right near my house. But pretty damn close! Cheshire is a great place, a luxury hideaway for some of the UK’s most minted celebrities and a mix of cultures on Manchester’s doorstep. We have rolling hills and some of the best shopping in the UK, with our own Harvey Nicks and Lamborghini dealership (now that one really is near my house).
Wilmslow is the posh end of Manchester, just down the road from studentville and home to Manchester’s rich and famous. Where better for top English bridalwear designer Caroline Castigliano to showcase her extensive wedding gown collection, with many gowns that until now have been exclusive to the Knightsbridge boutique.
Caroline Castigliano Sale!
I have this news just in for any brides looking for a designer wedding dress at a great price. Caroline Castigliano dresses are really classic fairytale shapes, beautifully made, elegant and sophisticated.
For two weeks only, you can get a great discount off wedding dresses from the Caroline Castigliano London boutique. But book early! Appointments are essential, and I’m sure they’ll go quickly. For your exclusive invitation call 020 7636 8212.
