We know that looking for the wedding dress is one of the most important moments and decisions in a woman´s life and it is just natural that you are nervous and excited. Our dedicated team will be there for you to make this an unforgettable day for you and your bridal party and assist you with all our experience and passion to find the wedding dress you´ve dreamed of.
In our luxurious vintage-style boutique, we´ve created a romantic and homely setting that will make you feel most welcome and comfortable. The open design and our spacious fitting room will give you a lot of space to walk around freely in your gown and give you the “here-comes-the-bride” feeling.
Our one-at-a-time appointment policy will give you all the privacy, undivided attention and calm you need to pick “the one” and enjoy this moment with your loved ones. All of our boutique is available to you and your party to browse through our beautiful selection of stunning dresses and accessories.
Regular appointments will last 1,5 hours and start with a comfy chat about your wishes and expectations. We´ll then have a look at the dresses together and pick the ones you love. We´ll be with you every step of the way, giving you advise and ask the right questions until you can proudly say “yes to the dress”.
Our consultations will also assist you in choosing complementary accessories like veils and jewellery to finalize your bridal look and let you sparkle on your wedding day.
Please note:
- We kindly ask you to give us 48 hours’ notice when changing or cancelling your appointment. With this, you will make appointments for other brides-to-be possible and our planning and organizing a lot easier, so we´d appreciate your fairness to inform us as early as possible.
- We´d ask you not to wear fake tan or heavy make- up. To protect our valuable gowns, we will have to refuse the fitting if you do.
- Unfortunately, we cannot allow for photos or videos to be taken in store to protect privacy and copy rights. But don´t worry, if you buy or order your dress with us, we´ll make sure that you can keep this memory forever!
Thanks for your understanding and cooperation!
It is advisable to book an appointment for your bridesmaid shopping as well. These appointments will last approx. 1 hour, depending on your number of bridesmaids. It would be perfect if all of your bridesmaids could be present at the appointment. Otherwise, we´d advise you to bring their measurements so we can order the correct size.
If you are looking to make your dress shopping an even more special experience, have a look at our “Special Appointments”.
