First Look

Everyone is talking about ‘the first look’ right now. That moment when your eyes meet for the first time and you see your partners wedding look. These moments are captured by your photographer and posted on social media, it is a definite trend. But we know of another ‘first look’, it happens a lot, and has just this moment happened here.

A bride arrives, as we welcome her and talk through how the appointment will go, she is already scanning the rails at our collection. We offer brides the opportunity to browse our collection, this gives chance to feel fabrics, look at detailing and talk through styles. We select dresses to try and talk through each one, usually adding a wild card here and there. And then it happens, they fall in love and no other dress stands a chance.

Once the celebrating and congratulating calms, they so often say the words

‘You know, I spotted this dress as soon as we arrived and I knew it was the one’ - And there it is, the first look.

The venue styling side of The Wedding Room has really taken off, with sustainability and recycling on our minds, it makes perfect sense to hire styling equipment. You have the option of collecting from us to set up yourself, or we can provide a set up service - find out more at @thestylingroom

Our bridesmaids collection is evolving too - we have really homed in on which styles are popular and have expanded on those designs, you can see more on our Instagram - @thebridesmaidsroom

Our diary is looking good and we are already taking enquiries for March onwards. If your wedding is in 2024, time is of the essence. To make your appointment click HERE

Small Business Saturday at The Wedding Room

Did you know that November 25th 2023 is small business Saturday. As a small business in a lovely community, we have decided to open our doors and show you what were all about.

Since relocating to 169 High Road, we have expended our services. Alongside our collection of wedding dresses from Lillian West, Justin Alexander, Modeca and Casablanca, we have grown our venue styling service. We have a dedicated room displaying all the items we have available to hire to create the perfect vibe for your wedding venue.

We are also lucky enough to now have The Flower Room ‘in house’. This year alone we have already supplied 22 brides with their wedding flowers, from buttonholes and bouquets to centrepieces and swings. Whatever your vision, we will work with you to bring it to life.

The Wedding Room can also dress your bridesmaids. Our gorgeous collection of bridesmaids dresses by TH&TH have been a big success. The dresses have been selected to consider all brides tastes and body shapes, with samples from a 10 to a 28. Visit The Bridesmaids Room to find out more.

And of course, WEDDING DRESSES. The reason we’re here. To find brides their dream dress.

If you would like to come and meet us and chat about all things wedding, pop by on the 25th November between 9.30am and 11.30am. We would love to see you.

Mary & Lucy
