A beautiful experience
Choosing and designing my dress at Joyce Young was a pleasure from start to finish. Mary and all the other staff were so helpful and friendly, and the experience was one of my favourite parts of preparing for the wedding. It was great to have the flexibility to take elements that I liked from different dresses and combine them to create one that was unique for me. Kolin had an amazing attention to detail when designing the dress, in particular when attaching the individual pieces of lace on the top. The final result was perfect and really comfortable to wear. I also loved having different items that I could add or remove, such as the separate top and overskirt, to create several different looks during the course of the day. Thank you to everyone at Joyce Young for being such an important part of my special day! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Joyce Young to anyone looking for a beautiful and unique wedding dress.

A bespoke dress with the personal touch
Mary and the team made me the most gorgeous gown balancing my off the wall ideas, with style, fun and a personal approach. My family and friends felt involved at all stages. The tartan train was commented on by all our guests and was a wonderful touch.
I cannot recommend Joyce Young more. From the fun, professional fittings in gorgeous fitting rooms, to ease of collection in Glasgow, the whole process was a breeze. I would love to the whole process all over again!

Personable and 100%reliable
The team from the beginning were friendly and focused on finding the right dress for me. The ladies offered me many options for my dream dress, until I found the dress! Mary was there for every fitting, the team made sure my dress suited my every need. The quality of each dress is High end. I have really sensitive skin and after trying on so many dresses is so many shops the dresses is Joyce young I had no reactions to any of them. Each dress on the shop floor is well looked after including my own dress. The website has a massive selection of all their gorgeous gowns and they capture all the details.
Due to covid I had rescheduled my wedding 4 times. The team made sure all fittings were rescheduled to ensure the dress fit me perfectly on my wedding day. I cannot thank everyone at Joyce Young enough!
I received the best compliments on my special day from guests and anyone else who saw me, it was literally all about how amazing the dress was.

The perfect wedding dress experience
I cannot rate Joyce Young highly enough. The whole team is an absolute joy to work with - I visited several different bridal boutiques and none came close to the exceptional experience I received with Joyce Young. They truly care about every single detail - they want you to not only feel perfect on your big day, but also enjoy the lead up to it. I looked forward to every appointment I had with them and am sad I don’t get to go down there for more fittings now!! By the end of my time working with them, I felt like I knew them and they really were an important part of my excitement getting married.
My dress was also absolutely perfect. There were customisations I wanted to make to my dress and they did everything to make them happen, and offered genuine helpful advice too. There aren’t enough words for how great they are!! Go and see them, you will not be disappointed.
Thank you Mary, Colin, Valerie for being so fantastic at what you do and for giving me such a personal and enjoyable experience with my dream wedding dress.

Perfect Dress & Delightful Experience
I had a wonderful experience at the London boutique. Mary and her team could not have made me more comfortable and welcome. Not only were the team welcoming and friendly, they also ensured that I had the dress of my dreams. There was not a single detail that I had to compromise on. Everything was made to fit me, and the dress was so perfect. The best thing about it was that the dress was incredibly comfortable, so I could be relaxed on the day of the wedding.

Definitely the place to go!
Both my daughter and my son's weddings have taken place in 2021; one in the UK and the other in New York. If i could give Joyce Young 6 stars i would. Both my outfits were a pleasure to design and buy and the wearing of them was a most fabulous experience. The compliments were plentiful both here and the USA....I felt so special and was told I looked it. For any mother of both bride and groom, don't go anywhere else, this is the place to go. I thank them from the bottom of my heart.
