    5* service

    5 stars isn't enough.
    The girls here are amazing. Their honesty and kindness not only helped me find the perfect dress but the confidence to wear it.
    They made me feel amazing from the second I walked in and we're as excited about the wedding day as I am.
    Cannot recommend them enough.

    Said Yes to the Dress!

    I said yes to my dress with Brides by Solo! My mother and I went for an initial bridal appointment with Grace and felt comfortable instantly. We were able to pick out dresses we liked ourselves and tag them round the hanger which made the process very easy. The changing room is good with lots of mirrors so you can clearly see the dress. We had our eye on one particular dress, which we were able to take off the shop floor for a price which could also be redeemed against other purchases if we ended up changing our mind. However, we went back for a second try on and loved it so made the jump and bought it! Grace also worked out of hours for this second try-on appointment and was very accommodating.

    Fantastic!

    So glad I got my dress from here. I was nervous about my first appointment and Sadie really put me at ease. She was patient and I found my perfect dress, off the peg. They have a beautiful range of off the peg and bespoke dresses, and lovely accessories. I got a belt for the dress and my veil from there too. Sadie also did my alterations and every appointment was a great experience, I was so pleased with the final outcome. There was a slight problem with one minor last minute alteration and Sadie came in on her day off to fix it the day before my wedding. She was also really responsive and easy to contact throughout the process. I can’t recommend Brides by Solo enough.

    A wedding dress shop for ever you are

    A beautiful shop with amazing dresses in. The only shop that sold the tea dresses which is what I was looking for. Great choice and I found the one. The staff were so friendly and professional and made you feel at ease. Alterations available. Looking forward to picking up my dress very soon 😊

    Wonderful Dress Shopping Experience

    I had a wonderful experience Dress shopping here a few weeks ago. Grace was so lovely and helpful, and made the experience for me and best friend so special, with Prosecco and chocolates! The dresses in the shop are lovely with a wide range of styles and sizes available. I would highly recommend to any brides to come here if looking in the Cambridgeshire area.

    My dress made me feel like a princess!

    Grace & Sadie were amazing at helping me find the perfect wedding dress for my special day, I couldn't wish for a better service from start to finish! Even after the big day, they have been very helpful in looking to get the dress cleaned for me.

    The shop is lovely and has such a variety to choose from. I absolutely loved my dress, it made me feel like a princess and I cant wait to see the professional photos!

    The dress came in with plenty of time to be altered and Grace recommended a seamstress to make sure the dress was fitted perfectly to me. The whole process was stress free which was amazing and ill be forever grateful. Cant recommend enough!!

    Heartfelt gratitude for an unforgettable experience

    I hold the deepest gratitude for the exceptional experience I had at Brides by Solo while searching for my dress.

    From the very beginning, Sadie proved to be not only a knowledgeable, dedicated consultant, but also the loveliest human being. Her warm presence and kind heart made every appointment an absolute joy. I truly felt in safe hands throughout the entire process, and her genuine interest in my wellbeing and wedding planning journey meant the world to me.

    I consider myself incredibly fortunate to have found my dream dress during my very first appointment at Brides by Solo. The level of service I received was nothing short of exceptional, providing me with a premium, luxury experience that surpassed all expectations. Brides by Solo will be the first name I enthusiastically recommend to any friends or family members embarking on their own wedding journey.

    My appointments at this boutique were, without a doubt, one of my favourite parts of the wedding planning experience. The unwavering support, comfort, and valuable advice, I received from Sadie and Grace, were genuinely appreciated and made the process so enjoyable.

    Thank you Sadie and Grace for being an integral part of my journey to the altar. Your exceptional service and genuine care have left an indelible mark on my wedding experience.

    An absolute dream

    So sorry it’s taken me so long to get in contact, it was a busy end of the year. We had the BEST wedding day and I felt so beautiful. Jack was close to tears and loved my dress too. It was everything I ever hoped for. The whole wedding dress process was an absolute dream so thank you so much for making it everything I hoped it with be, regardless of my size.
    Here are a few pics for you, and I will definitely be getting my dress cleaned with you.

    Again thank you very much,
    Jess Hort

    I wouldn't trust anyone else.

    So sorry it has taken me a while to get around to this. We had an absolutely perfect day! I could not have asked for more. Sadie you played a real part in this, your advice and patience to ensure I had the right dress meant so much, thank you!
    I have attached a few pictures, more than happy for you to share them. I tried to find some that show the dress off to its best. And one to show an extra special guest to my wedding….William the swan! He even joined n during the “does anyone know any just…..: his timing was perfect!
    I want to bring the dress back for you to clean and box, I would not trust anyone else.
