planning your visit
Please feel free to spend some time looking at our website and have a few styles and fabrics in mind this will help us point you in the right direction on your visit. You can also make a wish list that you can send directly to us prior to your visit.
During your visit please wear or bring along a good fitting bra, preferably a nude or light colour strapless bra.
It would be great if you have a budget in mind, then we can guide you in the right direction to find the perfect dress for your ideal price. We believe we have something for everyone.
To be respectful of other bridal parties in our boutique we recommend you do not bring children along with you to your bridal appointment. Due to the intimate setting of our boutique we are unable to accommodate pushchairs and we do not have baby changing facilities. We want all the focus to be on you, the bride and want to make your appointment as carefree and enjoyable as possible. However if you do need to bring your child along with you, then we ask that you have someone to supervise them at all times.
