Before you started shopping for your dress, did you have an idea of the type or style of gown you wanted?Â
Whimsical fairytale kind of dress! My wedding was to be untraditional, fun and colourful and I just wanted to feel like an ethereal fairy princess!Â
Did you have an idea of the wedding dress designer / label you wanted?Â
No clue on designers! I knew the more formal, traditional gown designers were not for me though.
How did you find out about your boutique?
Online ð«¶ð»
What made you decide to go with the boutique you did?
They stocked my absolute dream dress which I knew was the one before even trying it on ð€
How did your boutique make you feel special?
Sophie was so warm and welcoming. She made myself and my maid of honour feel so at home in her lovely boutique!Â
What were your favourite parts of the wedding dress shopping experience?Â
Trying it on and instantly falling in love ð¥°
Was the experience of shopping for your wedding dress as you expected, or was it something totally different?
At first it wasnât my cup of tea as I went to more formal bridal boutiques near my hometown where the dresses werenât the vibe I was after! Then I understood the kind of shop I needed and then I found 130 atelier bridal and the rest is history!
How many other shops did you visit?
Three!
Can you tell us about any negative experiences you had or why you were put off buying your dress from another boutique.
I continuously told them that I wasnât into diamantés at all but then they brought out a belt with them on, a headband, and a veil ðš I think as a bride there are some things you know you absolutely donât want and that was diamanté overload!!Â
What is your advice to other brides who are about to start dress shopping?
Donât panic if at the first store you donât find âthe oneâ. It just means it is still out there waiting to be found ð
Any additional advice about planning / wedding day?
Have a wedding which is true to you both as a couple. Neither of us wanted a wedding without colour so we went all out with a colourful 70s disco theme and for a DIY wedding we certainly did pull it off! Phew. Also- share the load of planning and DIY, I initially made the mistake of taking on everything and it got on top of me quickly but then my lovely husband took a list of things off me ð€
