We care!

Customer service is at the forefront of what we do. Owner of Rookery Bridal, Sarah, opened her first boutique over 10 years ago having had a poor experience when buying her own gown. She knew then that customer service is key and she set about creating a boutique where all her brides can feel secure and comfortable: they are listened to and treated with respect.

At Rookery Bridal, we really want to help you find your dream dress and our attention to our customer service is what separates us from the other boutiques. During your appointment, the team give you and your entourage their undivided attention to assist you in discovering the wedding dress of your dreams.

Rookery Bridal are passionate about helping every client to find the wedding dress that speaks to their unique style and personality. The Team at Rookery Bridal are dedicated to ensuring that your wedding gown shopping experience is relaxing, enjoyable, and stress-free.

Rookery Bridal is an independent wedding dress boutique located in Rooksbridge, Somerset, between Weston Super Mare and Burnham on Sea. Conveniently located just 5 minutes from junction 22 of the M5 and just off the A38.

Wonderful experience

Wow I am so so pleased I picked Rookery Bridal to go wedding dress shopping at! Every part of the experience was so wonderful, easy and enjoyable! From the first appointment, the staff were all so friendly and helpful- I think it was Victoria who helped me during that first appointment. She called us to say we could come early so we could make the most of our time, she gave us lots of time to walk around and have a look at the dresses on offer, and she was so attuned to what I liked/ worked for me that she was able to give amazing recommendations. This included my final dress I tried on which went on to be THE dress haha. It was a stunning Lilian West gown that felt perfect straight away. Once I had ordered it, the team at Rookery Bridal were very communicative about it arriving and also booked me an appointment to pick out a veil as well (they happened to have one that matched my dress perfectly so that was happy days). They offered a free steaming of the dress in the week running up to the wedding but as mine was lace, I didn't actually need to use this service, but i can imagine it is so helpful that it is there.
Overall Rookery Bridal has a stunning collection of gowns which despite having a good variety, are all very elegant and well made. The experience was so much fun and stress free and the team were so helpful throughout the process. Therefore I would highly highly highly recommend Rookery bridal as a place to go to search for your perfect wedding dress!

Found my perfect dress at Rookery Bridal!

I can’t recommend Rookery Bridal enough. It was my first bridal shop I visited and after only trying on 5 dresses I found the one which wasn’t picked out by me, but by the wonderful Jemma. Because of the range of dresses in stock I didn’t feel the need to try other bridal shops and felt in really safe hands with the team. I can’t thank Rookery enough for being so patient with me when not being able to pick up my dress due to personal circumstances, they were patient and so understanding throughout and the customer service I received throughout this period was amazing - such a compassionate and kind team. Thank you so much to Jemma and the rest of Rookery x

Where bridal magic happens! ✨

I had the most amazing experience at Rookery Bridal! Gemma helped me choose a dress I never thought I’d pick, and she never made me feel rushed—she made the whole appointment so calm and enjoyable.

When I said yes to my dress, Sarah made me feel like a million dollars, even sharing a tear with my mum! Picking up my dress was just as lovely—I wasn’t rushed and we had a great chat.

They also noticed my veil wasn’t quite right and immediately arranged to have it corrected. The team’s care, attention to detail, and kindness made me feel so special from start to finish. I can’t recommend Rookery Bridal enough! 💕👰✨

Made to feel special

Could not fault Sarah and her team! I was told by other shops I had left it too late to find a prefect dress but Sarah reassured me and took me on the most amazing journey to find my perfect dress. The whole experience was magical and finding the one was made so easy!! Worth the almost 2 hour drive to get there 😍😍

I felt very comfortable trying dresses on and after looking in lots of different boutiques, found my dress which I’m so happy with! I can’t wait to come back next year when my dress is ready, thank you so much!🩷

lovely experience

Had a lovely experience here with my mum - the team were very kind and helpful, and Nikkie was super informative about the whole wedding process for us as well (as we really had no idea) she made the experience of picking a dress so fun and easy! and her knowledge and experience of different brides / wedding styles / and what suits them is really remarkable - they have such a variety of designers and dress styles that I was able to try on so many different looks to find my perfect dress

Relaxed and enjoyable!

Rookery Bridal was the only dress shop I visited—and after trying on just four dresses, I found the one and a beautiful veil! I wasn’t sure what I was looking for when I walked in, but the process was made to feel incredibly easy and relaxed.

The appointment never felt rushed or pressured, and the calm atmosphere was perfect. The best way to describe the experience? Simply easy—in the best possible way!

My dress was unbelievably comfortable, made from such high-quality fabric, and I honestly wish I had an excuse to wear it again. Rookery Bridal also provided a list of recommended seamstresses, and I chose Suzie—she was absolutely perfect.

Highly recommend to any bride looking for a stress-free and enjoyable dress shopping experience!

Rookery Bridal

The entire team were extremely helpful in finding my dress. From the moment we walked in, we were made to feel comfortable and relaxed.
They had read my notes and were ready to start my appointment with dresses I had already mentioned. At no point did I feel rushed or pressured. I’m excited to pick up my dress when it comes!!

10/10 experience

My experience at Rookery Bridal was exemplary from the beginning. Having been to a few shops already, and experienced squeezing into dresses that were 2 sizes too small - I was really struggling to envision and commit to buying my dream wedding dress. Rookery Bridal was the wedding dress experience I had been looking for. They have a variety of dresses and not all the dresses are a size 6, so in a lot of the styles I tried on I could really picture how it would look on the day.
The team were lovely, and kept in contact with me throughout the full process. They introduced me to a seamstress who was fantastic. I really felt taken care of.
Thank you Rookery Bridal!

A surprise purchase

I met Sarah at the Big Southwest Wedding Fair, not expecting to buy a dress, let alone try any on! Sarah was so helpful and made me feel really comfortable, and it didn't feel as though there were so many people watching me try on the three dresses as she focussed on each person one at a time.

I visited the store for an accessory appointment where I chose my veil, and was given the contact details of Pauline (Odesia May) who created a bespoke headpiece in my wedding colours, based on the one that was held at Rookery.
