Affordable Wedding Dresses

Congratulations are in order! As you embark on your wedding planning journey, we recommend starting your search for the perfect affordable wedding dresses soon after slipping that sparkling ring onto your finger.

From the timeless elegance of a bridal dress, bridesmaid dress, wedding guest dress or mother of the bride dress, to our extensive selection of ball gowns, prom dresses NZ and many more styles and options, our dress range helps add a touch of magic to your wedding or formal event.

Our designer gowns, crafted with utmost care and creativity, take approximately 8-13 weeks to be crafted and arrive at our store. To ensure ample time for preparation, we suggest placing your order 5-6 months prior to your wedding date. However, we understand that wedding timeframes can vary; for brides with tighter schedules, we proudly showcase a rotating selection of gowns in our 'Off the Rack' and 'Sample Sale' wedding collections, perfect for those who need a stunning gown in a shorter period. ‘Rush Orders’ are also available for an additional fee.

An Invitation to Elegance: No-Fee Try-Ons

Is there a fee to find your fabulous bridal style with us? Absolutely not! We wholeheartedly understand the financial demands of a wedding and, as such, we extend the invitation to try on our gowns without any charge. While there is no fee for standard appointments, we offer VIP appointments for a small charge, curated to provide a tailored consultation to your individual style, body type, and vision.

Your Bridal Experience Awaits

We love being able to warmly welcome everybody into our boutique! However, as we are not your regular retail store booking an appointment with us is essential. Appointments can be made Monday & Friday between 10am - 5pm; Tuesday & Thursday between 10am - 8pm; Wednesday 10am - 2pm and Saturdays between 10am - 4pm. If for some reason you’re struggling to find a time that suits you to come in, just give us a call and we’ll do what we can to help arrange a time that works.
