Top 10 Norwich Wedding Dress Shops

Norwich Wedding Dress Shops

Ah the hunt for your dream wedding dress. It's one of the most exhilarating tasks of wedding planning, but as many brides to be know, this often dreamed about experience can quickly descend into stressful chaos.

The perfect dress looks and feels different to every bride, so the search for it is a personal one that can take some no time at all, whilst others look for months. Do you want a bohemian wedding dress for your festival-style wedding? Or are you looking for a classically elegant number for your church nuptials?

The choice of the dress can also come down to many more aspects than just the style too. For example, the season you're getting married in can affect the material and embellishments you may choose. The location of your venue, how much moving you're going to need to do and even if you want a lighter dress to change into for the evening (an increasingly popular option) are all things to consider.

Finding a selection of bridal boutiques you want to visit is essential for starting your search and it can be handy to stick to your local area so you can nip to the store for fittings and alterations close to the big day.

As the capital of Norfolk, Norwich is home to the county's biggest selection of bridal wear boutiques. From charming stores on the Cathedral quarter's cobbled streets to airy modern studios, you're sure to find your perfect fit.

So whether you want to shop on your own, with your bridesmaids, or are looking to take the mother of bride and mother of groom with you when you look for the dress, there's a wide range of options in this area.
