Averil Manley - Wellington
How long have you worked at Astra Bridal?
I started at Astra mid 2006.
What is your passion?
I love wedding gowns, and enjoy fitting the right gown to the right bride, to get the perfect fit and look. I also love competing in the Villa Maria Cult Couture awards - I was honoured to be awarded second place last year.
What is your area of expertise?
I am the seamstress in the Wellington store, and will make the gown look
unique on you.
What do you recommend to finish off the gown?
I get a few requests for boleros or jackets, especially in those winter months! So I can make you a bolero or jacket to compliment your gown.
