Photo of the Week #6





Our longest serving member of staff, Bryony, is still pleasantly surprised when she receives thank you messages and photographs, even after 22 years at The Wedding Shop! Here's a lovely message that Bryony received from Raquel Surally.


Dear Bryony

Not sure if you remember me but you were my advisor for my wedding dress. I just wanted to thank you so much for all your help you were so lovely with us and patient, on the first session I must have tried on at least 7 dresses - only to go back to the first dress!

Ah but we did have a fun time at the wedding and everyone, including Michael loved my dressed. Most comments being that they had never seen that colour wedding dress before. I wanted to send you a couple of pic's but couldn't decide which one. So instead I've sent you a link to the album(s) there are two, please don't feel you have to look at them, I can imagine you probably get a lot of this - but if you're feeling bored and you want to see the dress on the day then please feel free to have a look.

We all (my bridesmaids Jackie & Sagal and my mum) genuinely left the shop feeling really happy and the customer care we received from all at the shop was fantastic. I would thoroughly recommend The Wedding Shop to any future brides the personal service and attention was worth the journey from Central London, plus it was a good excuse to head out for dinner and drinks afterwards in the town centre :)

Take care and thanks again

Our thanks go to Elizabeth Pawle for sending us so many lovely pictures of her wedding day. Here's what she had to say.


Dear Nicola

It was lovely to see you again this morning.

I'm so sorry I completely forgot to send you any photos of my dress on the day but please now find three attached. I've included one from the back as so many people told me how pretty it looked with the long veil. I was so completely overwhelmed with how amazing I felt in my gown on the day and how beautifully you and your team made it fit. A million thank yous for helping me choose something so perfect.

All the very best,

Elizabeth Pawle (nee Richards)

The Serenity wedding dress from Victoria Jayne looked beautiful on Ieda, our photo of the week bride.

It was such a pleasure serving Ieda and we were charmed by her lovely card.

This week we have a really nice card from Hannah Harvey and her husband Saunders.


Hannah had some kind words for The Wedding Shop team:


"Thank you so much for all your help in the preparation for our wedding outfits. All the men looked amazing in the suits, and the dress fit like a dream. The service that we got was absolutely amazing and everyone was so friendly. Thanks again, here's another photo from our amazing day. With love Hannah (Mills) & Saunders Harvey."

The Keeper

A lady came in to our shop today and asked if we cleaned wedding dresses and how quickly could it be done, I said it usually took about three weeks and she asked if there was any way we could do it quicker.

Photo of the Week #1



I think this photo really captures the bride and groom wonderfully and as she rightly says she will always be known as 'The bride with the red shoes'!

Jitters shoot the mother of the bride

In preparation for our new web site launch we decided to do a photo shoot of all our mother of the bride and groom outfits so we can put them all on-line and let mums see that we haven't got a load of frumpy old mother of the bride and groom dresses!

Flying & buying

I feel like my feet haven't touched the ground in the last 6 weeks. We have been on a buying trip to Barcelona to choose the new Pronovias dresses for 2011.

A Stitch in Time

If you’re looking for a dress for next year then please please order in good time. It’s lovely to have lots time for all your fittings and alterations, then there's no stress involved.

Buyer beware!

The season is now in full flow, the snow has gone and that little bit of sunshine makes us all feel better.

Goodbye Snow, Hello Fashion Show
