Testimonials

Lovely staff, all very helpful and friendly. Staff know their dresses and you can just explain a style and they pick out the exact dress. Fantastic range of dresses and loved the overall experience. My mum bought her wedding dress from here in 1991 and then my nan bought her dress from here in 1993 and now I get to buy my dress from here too!
Emily
My appointment was everything I had hoped for. I felt celebrated and special, as well as comfortable and well looked after.
Hannah
The selection of dresses were varied, even for me as a plus size bride, and it goes without saying that they are gorgeous!
Georgia
Fantastic staff, so friendly, they give advice and make you feel incredible in yourself
Megan
I had the best day yesterday! It was my second time coming back to the shop, the ladies were amazing and got me to try on a dress that I wasn’t even thinking of, turns out the staff knew my style better than me!!
Steph
Best experience of my life. The staff were so amazing and welcoming and honestly couldn’t do enough to help me find my dream dress which I did!
Jordanna Hughes
Lovely, friendly and knowledgeable staff. Even though I’m on the bigger side they had lots of dresses for me to try on. Lena was my consultant and she was fab! Knew the stock well and what sort of dresses would flatter my shape.
Tracey
No words explain how amazing Michelle made me feel about my body when trying on the dresses as I’m very body conscious. She made me feel beautiful in the dresses and we had so much fun and laughter!
I came here 4 years ago with my sister , and know I will return in the future with my little girl when it is her turn
Hannah Briggs
The Southampton store had so much choice to pick from. The dresses are beautiful and the assistants are really helpful in narrowing down the style of dress to suit you!
Grace Newman
I can’t thank Gemma enough for giving us the most wonderful experience. Her professionalism, wisdom, patience and understanding know no bounds. All of the dresses are beautiful!
Charly Callaghan
This is a great shop – such a lovely, warm, welcoming environment from the moment I walked through the door. The staff are fantastic, loads of experience and nothing is too much trouble. Really impressed with the choice of dresses too!

BARCELONA DAY 2!

Yesterday was just the best day ever! We got to see the incredible @morileeofficial catwalk show front the front row and then spend time with some absolute diamonds in our industry at their after show drinks reception!

Our evening was spent with @justinalexander, who really do know how to throw a party...our feet will be sore for days after dancing into the small hours, but it was so worth it!

Barcelona 2024..it was incredible...see you next year!

ATERATIONS ADVICE YOU NEED TO KNOW!

When choosing your wedding dress, you often stand in front of a mirror and maybe have a little walk around but don't forget; on the day you'll need to be able to eat, hug, dance and sit down!

Your wedding dress should never be so tight that sitting down is uncomfortable, and on fitted shaped gowns or plain fabrics, having it too tight will create little wrinkles and cause stress on the zip and hooks. The same applies for straps and sleeves... you'll need to move your arms (we all love that bouquet air punch shot). Make sure you can!

Every bride wants to be picture perfect, we all know that but we also know it's a long and joyous day that you won't be stood still like a mannequin for. When meeting your seamstress, trust their advice...its much harder to let out a dress once it's been taken in!
