Wedding Belles of Four Oaks are amazing! They made my appointment feel super special and Tracy was incredibly attentive and listened to all my likes and dislikes and found me the most perfect dress! After finding my dress, we had a glass of fizz to celebrate and it was just the best experience. Anyone looking for their special dress should definitely book a visit to Wedding Belles.

Absolutely amazing experience, if I could give more stars I would.
Having tried on around 30 dresses in other shops , I was beginning to feel deflated and that Id never find the one . Id originally ruled out going to Wedding Belles as a few family members and friends had recently picked their dresses from there and I didnt want to have similar/the same. I really wish Id come sooner, as it was by far the best shop in terms of overall experience ,the staff and choice of dresses. I even gave them my family/friends names so they could make 100% sure I didnt choose the same.

I was really nervous about finding my dress. Id been to a different shop before and I was really worried I just wouldnt find anything I felt and looked beautiful in because the dresses I tried on at the first shop just werent right. Not only that, on the day I visited Wedding Belles of Four Oaks I felt really bloated so I didnt have much hope but on arrival, almost instantly Kate and the team swept us up in a wonderful buzz of happy excitement. I went to the shop with my mum, sister and future mother-in-law, after telling Kate all our names once she knew them and used them throughout

I highly recommend Wedding Belles at four Oaks, I visited last week with my mum and future mother in law. Thanks to Kate I found the perfect wedding dress for me. The ladies there make you feel special and are very very knowledgeable. I was nervous at first, but Kate answered all my questions and reassured me with my concerns. I can't wait to go back for my fitting. Big thank you to Kate and the WB team!
Love,

I had the most loveliest experience finding my dress here! The shop is beautiful & the ladies are all so welcoming & friendly, Kate especially. Kate made my appointment so special & went out of her way to help me in my decision when I was torn between 2 dresses. So happy with my decision & I can't wait to go back to collect my dress next year!

What a wonderful place! I went here after calling to see if they had any dresses in my size with a certain look that we didn't have to order in as my wedding was so soon. I went to my appointment with very little hope of finding my dress. The moment i walked in the door i was made very comfortable, Hester was so amazing, patient and very honest and she found me a dress that i love and cannot wait to wear. There was no limit to the amount of dresses i could try on like other shops! The girl's here do want to find you your dress and will do everything they can also 100% not pushy such a relaxed place

I went to Wedding Belles last Saturday with my mom, fiancs mom and 2 bridesmaids and the experience started as soon as we walked in the door.
Tracy was amazing from start to finish. I explained what types of dresses I though I wanted and she chose them 1 by 1 and we went from there. I ended up choosing a dress nothing like I imagined Id pick, I actually said I didnt want the style I ended up with but wanted to try one on just so I didnt have any doubts and as soon as I put it on I knew it was the one and the water works started!
Tracy helped us all celebrate with bubbly and lots
