Outstanding! From first contact, I was assured that in good hands, providing knowledgeable and practical advice on the entire wedding dress selection process. This was key, as choosing such an important dress especially during Covid restrictions was daunting, and I didn't know what to expect. After speaking with Poppy to get some initial ideas on what would suit a petite bride, I was excited to visit the boutique to select my dress. The location of The White Wedding House was picturesque, and the boutique felt both tranquil and glamorous, with a long red carpet to showcase shortlisted dresses

The moment the electronic gates opened to the White Wedding House the entire experience was amazing. The ambiance and decor, that included a red carpet runway, and the warmth of the greeting my mother and I received from Roz set the scene for what was truly wonderful few hours. The designs and styles were varied and elegant. I wasn't rushed and Roz's experience was apparent as she listened to my ideas and brought them to life. Needless to say I said "Yes To The Dress" and I recommend any bride to be to go and see Roz. Finding this gem of a bridal shop enhanced my whole bridal experience. Highly

I booked or a private viewing and brought along, 2 friends, 2 cousins, my aunt, nan & sister! The ladies were absolutely fantastic and couldn't have helped more, there was champagne...tea for nan, snacks, slippers for everybody, comfy seating and a very very large range of amazing designer wedding dresses...it really did exceed my expectations! I placed my deposit on my dress that evening!

The White Wedding House is the most amazing bridal shop I have ever been in. It is set in the beautiful grounds of an Essex country house and as soon as you walk in you get the feeling every bride should have when choosing their dress. The boutique is beautifully decorated and you get a one on one personal shopping experience with Roz the owner. The designer dresses are beautiful yet affordable. Having visited many bridal shops in Essex I cannot recommend the boutique highly enough for the entire experience.
