I visited 4 bridal shops. Dress Dreams were amazing. I found my dream dress but not until I had tried on so many over 3 appointments. The lovely staff had all the time in the world for me and didnt try to rush me to make a decision or make a hard sale. I was welcome back to try the dresses to make a decision. When I had a hard time deciding I was encouraged to try accessories and veils to help me with a finished look. They couldnt do enough to help. I ended up buying a breathtaking Viero gown. Best decision EVER! No other shop had dresses like the ones I tried especially the one that ended

An amazing shop that helped me find the perfect dress for my wedding day! The dresses are just next level - you won't find anything like them in other local dress shops. This was the only shop I visited that encouraged me to leave my appointment without a dress, as I was really unsure whether or not the one I loved was the one! They told me to go away and have a think, try on some more, and give them a call in a couple of days. This was totally different to previous shop experiences where I had been pressured to make a decision, and put in and out of what felt like a million dresses in a bid for

When I first started looking for my wedding dress I found it all very daunting, as someone who suffers with anxiety the thought of trying of lots of dresses made me panic, what if I dont know what I want, what if I annoy whoever is helping me find the dress, what if I dont like any, what if theres loads of people in the boutique watching me? As soon as I walked into dress dreams I was instantly put at ease by Kate. I didnt really know what I wanted and she helped me so much. She let me try on as many dresses as I wanted, even going back and trying the same dresses on a few times. I
