This iconic wedding wear company would be considered the trailblazer of the bridal industry as it started it's business 64 years ago, when European designer Jack Ritchie opened up his business, catering to thousands of women looking for that perfect, romantic wedding dress or evening wear. Over the course of his career, Ritche became the destination of choice for brides who wanted their dream dress. Always inspired by events of the era, in 1982 he worked through the night to be the first to recreate a replica of Diana, Princess of Wale’s famous gown.
