I chose my wedding dress at Emstrey bridal, and was in love with it as soon as I saw it! I was put at ease straight away for my first appointment and everything was so supportive! Communication was great in the lead up to the wedding, and I was so impressed with the quality and price. Thank you!

I am so happy I visited Emstrey Bridal as I found my perfect wedding dress. The location is beautiful and very convenient just on the edge of Shrewsbury.
Michelle is so welcoming and helpful and really made the whole experience extra special for me, my Sister and Mum. The large choice of dresses is fantastic, with a large range of different styles. They are all absolutely beautiful and there were so many I wanted to try on. I said "Yes to the dress" and recommend any Bride to be to visit Michelle at Emstrey Bridal.

Loved this place! This was my fourth shop I had been to and by far the best. Michelle was so helpful and lovely and we found my perfect dress. I can't wait till it comes in and I can try it on again. Thank you also for keeping us safe with the free PPE too.
