Highly recommend

From start to finish, my experience at was nothing short of magical. The moment I stepped in, I was greeted with a warm and welcoming atmosphere that immediately put me at ease. The staff truly listened to my vision and helped me find everything I needed, from the perfect gown to all the little accessories that completed my look. Their attention to detail and genuine care made me feel like I was the only bride in the world. I never felt rushed, and the personal touch they added to every fitting made the entire process so special. I couldn’t be more grateful for their help in making my wedding day unforgettable. I highly recommend to any bride looking for an exceptional experience.

Best experience with Bride To Be team x

This place has a very special atmosphere and friendly greeting. While other places told me that I needed to lose weight and didn't offer me the right style of wedding gown, this place was very friendly with me with all the boutique staff - the manager, the sales consultant, and the seamstress who made alterations for me.

They thought of everything in detail: taking measurements, ordering the dress in the right size, thinking of additional individual design changes that made my dress unique (we added off the shoulder straps to the dress, which was originally strapless) to hide my slightly chubby arms.

Few days before the wedding I picked up the finished dress with all the accessories, which were packed in a special box that you can take with you on the plane (It was abroad wedding).

I love it! It's the best experience and I'm not surprised because it was recommended to me by a friend who also bought a dress there.

Just lovely

I arrived feeling very nervous as it was my first time trying on dresses.
As soon as I walked through the door I was greeted with friendly, kind and knowledgeable lady who instantly put me at ease.
The appointment I was amazing!
Massive choice of gowns so I got to try on my wish list.
I found the most beautiful wedding gown and can’t wait to go back for my alterations.
