Bridalwear Shops in South West - England

Brides of Bohemia is a beautiful boutique in Wedmore, ran by the lovely Jamie. I first came across Brides of Bohemia on Instagram, and Jamie reached out offering her services. Since the start of my dress journey, Jamie was incredibly helpful and responsive, I sent her inspirational images of my dream wedding dress and she responded with many beautiful gowns as potential options. As I was travelling a fair distance to the boutique, Jamie scheduled a video call, where she showed me around the boutique and a number of the selected dresses in detail. Two weeks later I travelled to the boutique and spent several hours trying on a selection of gowns and veils. Jamie helped me in and out of the gowns, gave advice on how to wear them on the big day and tips on what undergarments would work. The service she provided was outstanding, she was kind and supportive, she made me feel so comfortable and created an incredible experience for me and my bridal party. The dress I chose from of Brides of Bohemia is one of a kind, incredible quality and made me feel beautiful. I chose a matching veil and handmade earrings, all of which was styled by Jamie. The experience Jamie provided was so personal, she is very talented in helping brides achieve their wedding vision. I cannot thank her enough for everything she did to help me, she is wonderful person.

I honestly cannot recommend So Gorgeous Bridal in Clevedon enough! Finding my wedding dress was one of the most exciting and nerve-wracking parts of wedding planning, but Anna and Devvon made the whole experience absolutely unforgettable. From the moment I walked through the door, they were so warm, welcoming and genuinely excited to help me find the dress. They made me feel completely comfortable and at ease, and there was never any pressure or expectation — just the most amazing support, honest advice and encouragement throughout. Anna and Devvon were both absolutely incredible. They took the time to understand what I wanted, listened to everything I said and somehow knew exactly what would suit me, even when I wasn't quite sure myself! They made the whole appointment feel so personal and special, and I felt like I was shopping with friends rather than being in a bridal shop. The moment I found my dress was so special, and I honestly don't think the experience would have been the same without them. They made me feel so confident, beautiful and excited to be a bride, and I left the appointment absolutely over the moon. Every appointment afterwards was just as lovely, and their attention to detail and care throughout the whole process was amazing. They genuinely went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. Thank you so much to Anna and Devvon for being such a special part of my wedding journey. I will always remember finding my dress at So Gorgeous Bridal, and I couldn't be more grateful that I had the two of you there to help me find it! 🤍 If you're looking for your wedding dress, I couldn't recommend So Gorgeous Bridal highly enough. The dresses are beautiful, but it's the incredible people and the experience they create that makes this place so special!

Daisy is such a lovely person and made me feel very comfortable, having been to some much bigger stores before and feeling overwhelmed! I now have my gorgeous dress and counting down to the big day - Thank you 💜

I was incredibly indecisive when it came to my wedding dress. I had so many different ideas, and I wasn’t quite sure what would work for me and what wouldn’t or even what I wanted. It felt quite overwhelming and almost impossible to figure out, until I met Allessandria. Working alongside her was a truly unique and beautiful experience. Her knowledge, creative mind, and attention to detail are unparalleled. She took the time to understand me, my vision (even when I didn’t fully know it myself). Thank you Allessandria, for making the dress of my dreams and for being such a beautiful part of my wedding journey.

When I came to Rookery Bridal I had no idea what I liked or what would suit me. The girls made me feel so at ease. Talking me through how it works and what to expect. I had no expectations of finding a dress but just wanted the experience of trying one on, I tried on 5 dresses and the 4th one was the one! The dress came in on budget. They recommended local seamstresses and streaming services who were all lovely too. Thank you for making me feel at ease and enjoying the process with me!

I had the most incredible experience at Sassi Holford Somerset! Since the age of 7, I had walked past the shop in Taunton with my mum and dreamt of one day wearing one of their beautiful gowns on my wedding day, and my dream well and truly came true! Lucy was the stylist who helped me pick out my dress at my first appointment. Her knowledge is second to none, and I was made to feel so special and welcome. I also had a couple of appointments with Kristine, who is just as wonderful as Lucy is! Lucy and Kristine were also so helpful when it came to picking a veil to go with my dress - their expertise and advice was so welcome, because I had no idea where to start! I asked advice on all kinds of things from accessories to shoes to hairstyles to underwear, and each and every time I received the best advice. All of the dresses that I tried on were gorgeous. Sassi Holford really understands the female form, and designs gowns that flatter and accentuate your best features - I always felt like I was wearing the dress, the dress was never wearing me. All the materials are carefully selected, and of top quality. Once I had settled on a dress (Mia), I was so well looked after, and kept in the loop throughout the entire process. Emily, the seamstress who does the final tweaks and alterations once your gown has been made, is awesome - I really felt like I was in safe hands with her, and I had full confidence that she would ensure that my dress would fit like a glove on my wedding day, which it did! She even stitched a silver sixpence (that I provided) into my dress at my request, as well as an adorable blue satin bow. She is a miracle worker - I had to cancel my initial final fitting appointment due to contracting Covid, and by the time I was able to come in for the appointment, she only had a 48 hour window to work with, but she managed it! The aftercare and advice you are given when you go to collect your dress ready for the big day is also great! From an emergency kit to have on the day, to recommending a specialist dry cleaner, all bases are covered! And emails are always replied to quickly and in a very friendly manner. From start to finish, I cannot fault the service that these three ladies provided to me (as well as my mum, sister, nan and mother in law, who all accompanied me to appointments at various stages) - they are all superstars! And the dress was the stuff of dreams - it was like it had been designed with me specifically in mind! I felt like royalty on my wedding day, and had so many compliments from my family and friends. It was well made from the best quality materials, and the attention to detail (the lace, the buttons, the train, the underskirts) was incredible. I love how it was made locally in Taunton too. Meeting Sassi herself at my first appointment was the cherry on top of the cake. Thank you, Lucy, Kristie and Emily (and everyone behind the scenes), for making my wedding dress dreams come true. I will be forever grateful.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The most amazing bridal experience from start to finish! I honestly cannot thank The Bridal Box team enough for everything they did for me throughout my bridal journey. From the very first appointment, they helped me find my dream wedding dress and made me feel so special, confident and completely myself. What stood out to me was that they went so far beyond simply helping me choose a dress. Lovely Helen was always incredibly quick to respond to emails, and would even call me to check in and make sure everything was okay. The team offered so much advice and support with the wider wedding planning and gave me little tips and guidance that helped make the whole experience feel much less overwhelming. They also had such a lovely way of looking after me as a person, not just as a bride. They subtly checked in on how I was doing, encouraged me to look after myself and reduce my stress, and always wanted to make sure I was feeling my absolute best — both in how I looked and how I felt. The whole team were absolutely fantastic, but I have to give a special mention to Sarah and her incredible seamstress skills. She is genuinely a wonder woman! The alterations and attention to detail were second to none, and she worked her magic to make my dress absolutely perfect. Looking back, I feel so lucky that I had my bridal journey with The Bridal Box. They made me feel cared for, supported, beautiful and confident every step of the way, and I couldn’t have wished for a better team to be part of such a special chapter in my life. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I will forever be so glad I chose The Bridal Box! ❤️
