The most perfect experience!

Can’t recommend Velvet Queen enough, I’ve never felt so comfortable when trying on dresses, I knew I’d find my dress today I had a gut feeling! Loved everything about the experience 💕 Nicola at Velvet Queen made me feel so comfortable in my own skin and created such a safe environment for me to find my perfect dress. I travelled for 3.5 hours to get to Velvet Queen and it was 100% worth it! Thank you again x
