The day I sobbed because of a dress

I found my perfect wedding dress last weekend, due to the staff with the willingness and helpfulness of the staff. After trying on so many different wedding dresses and going to different stores, the staff were actually happy to help and were properly able to communicate with their customers and the families of the bride's. I'd like to thank all the staff for being so warm, lovely and kind to me and my family.

Great all round experience

We had a wonderful couple of mornings at DressPlace with alley bridesmaids trying on and picking our dresses that suited each of our shapes and sizes. Helen and her team were great at knowing what would suit each of us and very knowledgeable on how the dresses could be further adapted to fit us perfectly.
They have a wide range of dresses to suit all budgets and the whole process from our first appointment to collection was seamless.

Dress of my dreams!

I had such a lovely experience at Dressplace. I was only having a very small wedding and didn’t want anything too formal for this reason. I wasn’t sure if I even wanted a traditional wedding dress so I was a bit apprehensive before the appointment. Helen and Lucy welcomed me and put me completely at ease and understood what I wanted and I was so happy with the dress I found. It was perfect for my wedding and I felt beautiful. The shop is welcoming, and has an amazing amount of choice for every kind of wedding and I would highly recommend you book an appointment. Happy wedding dress shopping! 😊❤️

Perfect experience

Bought my dress 2 weeks ago at DressPlace and I had the best experience a bride could have.
It was the second bridal shop I went to and I was swiftly accommodated.
I was being listened to and accordingly shown dress they knew I would like. They also allowed me to walk around the shop with the dress and able to try different veils and shoes. For my second visit I was 30 minutes late and they still accommodated my family and I.
100% recommended.

Great team and great place

Having previously not had the best experience at a wedding shop I arrived at DressPlace nervous and less than optimistic. Lucy immediately put me at ease and showed me lots of different dress options. She was patient, warm and honestly couldn’t have made me feel any better than she did, which made saying yes to one of the lovely dress options so much easier! Huge thanks :)

Simply the best !!!

Dress Place Bridal Boutique was so easy to find I'm pleased I booked an appointment in advance. I was feeling really nervous but from the moment I walked through the doors Lorna and Julie were there They were so friendly and welcoming they helped me feel at ease. Being an older larger lady still wanting to look like a bride with a limited budget I didn't think there would be much choice for me and I really did not know what I was looking for We got chatting and Lorna was able to find me so many different styles and designs she had listened to me about parts of my body I felt uncomfortable about showing She was so supportive and patient and encouraging taking time to respect my dignity whilst trying on loads of different dresses She had such knowledge experience and professional eye for detail and was so attentive I was made to feel very special
I also noticed another lady much younger slimmer a new bride to be with her mum trying on dresses and she was enjoying the same exciting wonderful experience The boutique has lots of accessories and as they say on TV at my request Lorna jacked me up to give me the vision of what was achievable to say YES to my dress I didn't feel any pressure to purchase any of the accessories but what I did find was that overwhelming confidence and certainty that this dress was the one I loved everything about it my search was over I didn't want to take it off and couldn't believe my eyes that I could look and feel so amazing Thanks to Lorna Julie and Dress Place Your simply the best !!

Amazing first experience!

We managed to book a last minute appointment. Wendy was so welcoming and put me at ease straight away. She helped to pick dresses that would suit my size and style in mind. The first dress I tried on I knew straight away was the one! Very honest and not pushy at all! Would 100% recommend to ant brides!

Top quality service

Dress Place offers an excellent choice of quality outfits and gorgeous matching hats and fascinators, all at sensible prices. There really is something for everyone, in every colour you can think of. The showroom and fitting rooms are tastefully decorated and Helen and her ladies put me at ease immediately, making my visit feel like a special occasion in itself. They were so helpful and friendly and nothing was too much trouble. I cannot recommend Dress Place highly enough.

Poor service, poor advice, poor alterations

I found the dress place to offer very little advice or assistance on silouette so I chose a dress with deep V back and angled straps. On reflection my shoulders slope downwards so there was no way the straps were ever going to stay on my shoulders... I did raise this before I purchased the dress but was told when the dress in the correct size and fitted to me by alterations it would be perfect. Well to cut (a very long and traumatic) story short the seamstress took so much away from the shoulders it completely lost the deep V back that was so special about the dress. Neither did the straps stay on my shoulders. I was never consulted or informed this would happen, I was told they had been doing this for 20 years and they knew what they were doing. Some very poor lace matching (shown on my profile pic), bra carries far to large to carry anything and a ruined back my alterations were complete. £400 they charged me to ruin my dress then sent me away to buy body tape from John Lewis.

First class!

I went to Dressplace on the off-chance looking for a bridesmaid dress - the whole experience was so lovely,with so many amazing dresses, that I ended up with my dream dress, all my bridesmaid dresses, and I will definately be back with my mum! Would definately recommend to anyone!

Why shop anywhere else?

This wonderful shop is a "one stop shop" for wedding gowns and complete mother of the bride outfits - in all sizes. Everything is beautiful and as new and the owner, Helen, will make you feel so special and give you five star service. She also stocks some wonderful ball gowns, cocktail and cruise dresses. These are truly designer dresses at affordable prices. Well worth a visit - I know you won't be disappointed.
