A highly recommended store to find the dress of your dreams at a very reasonable price. The whole experience was one I will never forget.
Thank you Brides of Southampton. I look forward to seeing you again.
(I haven’t featured the dress I’ve chosen. That’s a secret!)
Even before stepping in the door pre my first appointment I knew they would look after me. As a nervous bride to be with no clue what I am doing the pre consultation on email before appointment really helped me think about what styles I liked and what I wanted out of my dress. They have an awesome Instagram and tictok account where they showcase their range in store - I admit I spent hours watching their content pre appointment 🥰 as did my sister (MOH) 😂
Then the day arrives and I have to try on a wedding dress for the first time 😬😬😬 I was nervous and excited and had the fear that I would hate myself in all these beautiful dresses that were in store as a plus size bride…
Well I couldn’t be more further from my fears. The team at BOS are incredible and made me feel at ease as soon as I walked in the door. They are so fun, thoughtful, professional and really know their dresses!! Big shout out to the amazing Lily who was with me every step of the way listening to me and working with me to find the perfect one. Lily you really made it so special for me thank you 💕
Long story short I feel in love with ‘the one’ straight away but still tried on many others to make sure it really was meant to be mine. I’m so excited to visit the team again and my dress when it arrives for my first fitting. I also live out of the country so the team have been super flexible with me about when I can get back home for future appointments. They really do go above and beyond.
Thank you so much BOS and keep doing what you do best! Xxx
On the day, Michelle was absolutely lovely and so helpful and found me dresses I absolutely loved based on what I had told her and my reactions to other dresses. She was really friendly, helpful and enthusiastic which made the whole appointment very enjoyable! The dresses were all beautiful and I was surprised by the good prices.
Will definitely be returning and I would definitely recommend!
I had already gone with a dress in mind but Edna went through some different options with me, just to make sure I had confidence in the big decision I was about to make. Edna looked after my so well that I cannot thank her enough. I was on my own, so it was reassuring to have such a lovely lady looking after me and listening to what I would like from my dress.
It ended up better than I could have asked, I found my dress, accessories, and an unplanned for veil, which set everything off just perfectly.
I cannot recommend the team at Brides of Southampton enough, the process was smooth from start to finish...now just got to wait for my dress to come in!
Thank you all for making it a special event and I look forward to coming in to do a reveal with my Mum once the dress arrives.
