My experience with Emma Hartley Bridalwear could not have been more perfect. I was looked after by Kelly & Rachel who both instantly put me at ease and made me feel beautiful. They reassured me each step of the way and made sure I was happy and comfortable with the process.

Before my first try-on, Kelly asked me to select some dresses from the website I would like to try, I selected a few, but there was one, in particular I could not wait to try on. It was one of the brand new allure bridal ranges! I went for my first try-on with my mum and was looked after by Kelly where I tried on many, many dresses but my heart was definitely set on one. On the day, I managed to cut it down to two but was still unsure which way to go. Do I go for a simplistic and elegant look or do I go for an eye-catching statement piece?

A few weeks later, I went back with my sister-in-law and mum and through the many discussions with them as well as Kelly & Rachel I said YES to the DRESS! It was the very first one I had picked and the one that despite being unsure of I kept going back to. I decided if I was going to have my dream day of marrying my soulmate then I should stand out and go for the eye-catching statement dress and I'm so glad I did. I paired it with a stunning cathedral-length veil which complimented the dress perfectly. Just the right amount of sparkle but not too much. I could not fault my experience with Emma Hartley at all; the team made me feel welcome, calm and most importantly beautiful.
