We suggest bringing along 3 special guests who will offer their honest opinions and whose judgment you truly trust.

It's important to remember that everyone has their own unique taste, so expect a variety of opinions on what you should wear for your big day!

We highly recommend securing your dream dress 9-12 months before your big day. This timeframe allows ample time for alterations and ordering specific sizes, ensuring a flawless fit.

At Your Wedding Shop, we understand that selecting your wedding dress is a momentous occasion for you and your bridal party.

When you're ready to embark on this exciting journey, we encourage you to book a fitting with us.

Please note that stock at Your Wedding Shop is ever-evolving, as new designers regularly unveil fresh styles. As a result, we cannot guarantee the availability of a specific dress you may have tried on a few months ago.

If you've already placed an order for your gown, please note that any changes will not be possible. However, if it is an 'off-the-peg' dress, we may consider your request at the discretion of our management, but only if the gown is still in our store. We understand that selecting the perfect gown is crucial, which is why we offer a convenient service for trying on alternative gowns to ensure your original choice is just right. This service, priced at £125, includes the option to return and explore other options.

Our top concern is providing a comfortable environment for both our staff and brides when it comes to personal hygiene.
