Bridal success - a wedding dress for less! Finding the dream wedding dress should be one of the most enjoyable experiences for the bride-to-be but spiralling costs and expensive tastes can push the most relaxed of brides to reach for the tissues before getting to the aisle! Budding brides on a budget should look no further than The Bridal Boudoir in Cardiff, which opened on Monday, October 4th and offers luxury wedding dresses that don’t break the bridal bank! Located in a studio above the Milkwood Gallery on Lochaber Street in Roath, The Bridal Boudoir sells luxury wedding gowns in a variety of styles, all for under £600. As well as a choice of up to thirty beautiful dresses, the boutique sells a wide range of accessories such as unique bridal jewellery, delicate veils and wow-factor headpieces all at reasonable prices. The Bridal Boudoir is the brainchild of Cardiff businesswoman Sian Hopkins who came up with the idea for the boutique whilst organising her twin sister’s wedding. Sian says, “In recent years, prices have escalated making the average price of a wedding dress around £1,200, and the whole package costing around £18,000! When my twin sister, who was living out in China, asked me to help organise her wedding I realised just how expensive weddings had become. I was determined to organise a beautiful wedding without paying extortionate prices. In the end, I created a stylish and elegant wedding that didn’t break the bank. This success inspired me to help other brides who want a beautiful wedding for less.” “I know brides want to look their best on their big day but many cannot afford to spend a fortune so that’s where I come in and help out! Our dresses are made to the highest standards and by keeping our overheads low and buying directly from the supplier we can ensure that no dress in the boutique costs over £600. “Our service is different from others as we not only offer a beautiful selection of dresses in the shop, but we can provide made-to-measure designs to suit all tastes. You really can get your dream dress without compromising!” The Bridal Boudoir operates by appointment only. Appointments can be made 7 days a week between 9am – 8pm. To celebrate its opening, The Bridal Boudoir is offering a special introductory 10% off any dress until the end of October.
