From the second I walked in Jo and Ruby made me feel comfortable. Jo listened to me and made sure that the dresses I tried suited both me and the venue. We giggled the whole way through the appointment which put me at ease & I had the nicest time. I felt like they had all the time in the world for me. Jo knew which dress I'd choose as soon as she saw me. She knows her stuff inside out. Thank you both so much, I couldn't be happier x

I decided to book an appointment with Bradgate Brides after my sister had bought her dress from them back in 2017. The boutique is so lovely, with several floors of beautiful dresses. From the second I met Jo, she made the experience so personal and exciting for me. She listened, we laughed, she was helpful and honest with what style suited me best and after two visits I found my perfect wedding dress. I was so happy to have found my dress at BB, to be able to support such an amazing company with amazing staff. Jo really made this one of my favourite wedding planning experiences and so thank you

They were so helpful. We tried on all the dresses that my daughter wanted to. Very knowledgeable and we need the dress in a rush. Allowed us time to make decisions and guided us with purchases. So pleased...one happy daughter and one beautiful dress on order.

What an amazing experience! Jo and Ruby were just fab! Jo really does have the eye, she put me in dresses that she knew I would look good in and that I probably wouldn't of took a second glance at! I've left with the most amazing dress and a smile on my face from ear to ear! Really can't thank your advice, friendliness, honesty and patience enough!
