Your local West Midlands wedding dress boutique will typically stock a range of wedding dresses from both UK and international designers to suit your fashion style and budget. You will also receive expert knowledge and guidance on how to select complementing accessories for your big day including tiaras, veils, shoes and more.

How to incorporate a pop of colour into your wedding dress
There are so many ways that you can incorporate colour into your wedding dress. Most gowns come in different shades such as ivory, pinks, greys, blues and blacks. We also work with one of the best companies in the UK that allow us to make custom changes to our gowns, including the colour. If you're after a subtle hue, most seamstresses will be able to customise a gown by adding coloured thread, beads, fabrics or even crystals to your design. We often tell our couples that with a great seamstress the only limit to customising a gown is your imagination.... read more

Ideas for choose a wedding dress to give the illusion of height
Q – My fiancé is much taller than me – what dress style would you recommend for a shorter bride to give the illusion of height? "Our recommendation for a shorter bride who wants to give the illusion of height is to opt for a sheath or a fit and flare style gown. We would advise against a ballgown or a fishtail as these styles can make you appear shorter, adding width rather than height." Rebecca Baddeley. Wedding dress expert.... read more

How to choose the perfect wedding dress for an autumn wedding
"I recommend speaking with your local boutique about your venue, theme, body shape and then try on styles that make you feel amazing. Choosing a dress is unlike anything else you've done before, so it's hard to generalise all autumn-themed weddings. Consider the weather and choose a slightly heavier fabric. A favourite of mine is Mikado, which is a blend of silk that feels incredibly soft! Alternatively, heavy crepe is a popular look. GAIA Bridal is one of our favourite designers, and her crepe gowns teamed with beaded lace are beautiful. Do you want sleeves, or have you considered detachable versions? This would create two looks in one, and you can choose which one you wear based on the weather."... read more

When to start wedding dress shopping
This is a frequently asked question, and the answer will depend on how far in advance you have booked your wedding. Nowadays to buy a stock wedding dress off-the-peg won't be mission impossible for brides living in big cities. However, we would still suggest allowing three months to do any last-minute bridal shopping, in case any alterations are needed, and to leave you some time to shop for bridal shoes and hair accessories. For a bride who has planned far ahead, with one to two years before the wedding, we would suggest you visit a bridal boutique sooner rather than later.... read more
