With over 30 years of experience dressing brides for their big day, Broomvales, formerly known as Just a Day Bridalwear and Brides of St Peters, have relocated into a stunning collection of 3 grade 2 listed barns with exposed beams and mezzanines. It's the perfect location to relax and try on stunning wedding gowns from a collection of over 150. If it's a prosecco appointment for the bride and her girlfriends or a tea and cake appointment that takes your preference, then Broomvales can offer the choice. With its easy location, half a mile off the A14 just outside Ipswich, coming from Norfolk, Cambridge o, or Essex, it's so simple and there's no need to worry about parking. We have free on-site parking. Price guide £900 to £3000

Designers available at the boutique are Pronovias, Justin Alexander, Sincerity, Marklesley, Freda Bennett and Tiffany and White Rose Bridal.

We are proud to carry a good collection of gowns for the curvy bride, with gowns in stock up to size 30.

Also available is the SALE ROOM at the barns. Sample Sale Gowns at a reduced cost is an easy way to shop for a bridal gown, knowing that the price guide is between £250 and £950. Appointments are necessary.

We also have The Prom Room from January through to July. This barn has a beautiful collection of Prom gowns, which we offer one style and one colour per school. Appointments are necessary.

Please do not use this ‘shop’

I say shop as it is merely a retail shop. The experience received by my daughter from start to finish was extremely upsetting and not at all the experience a future bride should receive when buying her wedding dress. Unfortunately, the owner Sharon and her team just want your money! My daughter was mis sold by Tori, who funnily enough no longer works there and Chloe let slip, that our complaint was one of many regarding Tori. They also give you the impression they have an in-house tailor, and even quote prices when discussing alterations that they claim can be made but when you go to JP Alterations who is actually an independent tailor, the alterations aren’t realistic and the prices for alterations that can be made, not ones you wanted at the point of sale, are way more expensive. The alterations ruined my daughter’s dress and we had to purchase another one, the sleeves were so badly altered that kne had lace on it and the other one was plain and the tailor said they don’t have to match! Owner has no interest in any problems when she’s had your money and the tailor blames the shop for ordering the wrong size dress and for saying alterations can be done when they can’t. Disgusting customer service.
