meant to be bridal

I had been Wedding dress shopping for a few months, tried on loads of different dresses but couldn’t find my perfect one. I made an appointment at Meant to be Bridal which had only opened a month or so before I went. When I walked in the place was decorated so beautifully and felt really luxurious. Lesley is a wonderful, patient, friendly and kind person and genuinely cares about you and finding your perfect dress. She has a wide range of different styles, colours and fits, suitable for anyone, any size. Lesley let me bring whoever I wanted to my appointments and she looked after everyone with drinks and making sure they were comfortable. After trying on 3 dresses I found my dress. I even went back a couple of times to try it on again and again just to make sure and Lesley accommodated me everytime with no problems. When I went back the 3rd time she had just got some new dresses in. Then one caught my eye which was absolutely beautiful and I just had to try it on. When I did, I knew that was my dress. I also got my veil, tiara and belt from Lesley which she chose to match with the dress perfectly. The ordering was quick and simple and Lesley kept in touch regularly updating me on when my dress would arrive. As soon as it did she fit me in straight way to try it on. Payment was easy. I would recommend Meant to be Bridal to anyone that wants a special, personal and wonderful wedding dress trying experience. 10/10 for me.I also know Lesley has just started stocking bridesmaid dresses so I will 100% be going back there for mine

Lesley made the process of choosing my wedding dress really special. We had a lovely time every time we visited and it felt very relaxed and personal. I would absolutely recommend meant to be bridal!

My experience at Meant to Be Bridal was quite simply, fabulous. Lesley is so lovely and welcoming, she really made it a very special experience for me. Nothing was too much trouble. Great selection of gowns and accessories to flatter all shapes and sizes. I’m so grateful for having stumbled across Meant to Be and cannot wait to come back in when my dress arrives.

I was dreading wedding dress shopping, worrying that I would look awful in everything I was trying on and feeling very body conscious. Particularly after hearing horror stories that friends had experienced when they were wedding dress shopping.As soon as I walked in Lesley immediately made me feel at ease with her bubbly personality and infectious positivity! There was no pressure and no judgement and I was given endless amounts of time to try on absolutely everything I wanted to. I never felt pressured into making a decision and even waited for a second appointment and try on before making the decision and buying my dress from Lesley. It was an amazing experience and the dresses were all stunning, I could have easily bought a few! I did say yes to the dress at Meant To Be Bridal and I am so excited to get to wear it for my wedding day in August. Thank you for the amazing customer service and the wonderful experience.

A lovely friendly bridal shop with a beautiful selection of dresses. Went for a bridesmaid dress and felt very at ease trying them on. Ordered a beautiful dress. Amazing choice of colours available allowing my friend the bride to choose what compliments her wedding theme.

What can I say about the amazing Lesley? OK so not only have I found the most amazing dress that we personalised together ready for my wedding in two weeks I also feel I've made a friend for life :) She's a beautiful person that just wants the best for you as soon as you walk in the shop door. She's looked after me and my mum throughout the whole buying experience and nothing was too much for her. Always ready to greet you with a smile and makes you feel special the way it should be on your special day. My mum is also slightly disabled and it meant a lot that she took this into consideration during the fittings. Thank you Lesley for all your help, please support this amazing small and local business you will not be disappointed xx
