Dressing
​For the bride: we provide comprehensive assistance every step of the way, from managing underskirts, fastening buttons, adjusting garters, tying corset backs, to adorning you with shoes and jewelry. In cases where there's a sizable bridal party, we recommend granting the bride some solitary moments whenever feasible.

My Story
My name is Maureen Bourke, and I am the owner and founder of The Wedding Concierge. With a passion for providing exceptional service, I am dedicated to ensuring that brides and grooms have an unforgettable experience on their special day. In 2010, I established Elle & Stuart in Melbourne, named after my mum Ellen Stuart, who instilled in me a love for sewing and creativity from a young age.
​
Recently, my husband, our fur-kids Peaches and Harry, and I decided to embark on a sea-change and relocated to paradise in Port Douglas! Having experienced a destination wedding myself, I understand the challenges of planning from afar and the importance of having support, especially with the wedding dress. I am here to make your wedding day stress-free and enjoyable, providing the assistance and expertise you need to create beautiful memories.
