#ASTRABRIDE Laura Pollock

My sister planned for me to come down to sort my dress, and I’m so glad she did. The staff were incredibly helpful, explained the process amazingly, and made it completely stress free. Sarah was just awesome; we had so many giggles during the process—it felt more like a girls' lunch than a stressful and overwhelming 'must make a decision' situation. The selection of dresses was absolutely amazing, and the store was private and welcoming. Sarah has continued to stay in touch with me, even after the viewing. I would highly recommend her if you’re looking for a fun and carefree experience, along with a gorgeous dress for your special day! Thanks, Sarah!

I loved my dress consultation here! I had the lovely Chanelle, who made me feel so welcome, listened to my likes and dislikes, chose some beautiful gowns for me to try, and made me feel great about myself. She was so easy to deal with, and communication post visit has been great! Even my bridesmaids were super happy with the experience. Although I didn’t find the dress on my first visit, I would definitely recommend Astra Bridal and 100% will revisit to try on more gowns.

I had an amazing time today at Astra Bridal with Sarah. Although I wasn’t the bride-to-be, it was great to be a part of the whole experience. Sarah was fantastic, knowledgeable, and inclusive, and the bride said 'Yes to the dress!' :). Highly recommend.

I had the most amazing experience at Astra Bridal Northshore. Sarah was absolutely amazing to work with and made me feel so comfortable. She created a relaxed and enjoyable experience, picking out amazing dresses based on the style I liked, and I got to say YES to the dress! She truly made the whole experience amazing.

I had the most amazing day today at Astra Bridal Hamilton. I also had my 1 year old daughter with me, and while she was a tad loud, there was no problem with her being there. Khym made me feel like a princess. She understood exactly what I was looking for and my budget, and she found me my dream dress. Thank you, Khym – you were a dream and such a pleasure to meet and work with.

I had a lovely, laid back experience with Rochelle. She allowed us to browse the gowns and offered help when needed, but never felt intrusive or too opinionated. The process was easy and so much fun!

I had the most amazing experience shopping at Astra Bridal in Hamilton and managed to find my dream dress! I was very nervous to try on dresses, as I had no idea what would suit me, but my stylist, Khym, made the whole experience so comfortable and memorable! It was lovely to bring in my mum and three best friends, and after trying on the first dress, I had so much fun. Khym squeezed me in for a second try-on of my favourite dress for extra reassurance, which was so appreciated! Thanks so much to you, Khym, and the Astra team—I can't wait to wear my dress! x

I had an amazing experience at Astra Bridal and found my dream wedding dress! Ilyese and the team were so welcoming and made me feel comfortable and excited to try on dresses and live my princess fantasy. I’m plus size and have a large chest, so I was kind of dreading wedding dress shopping, expecting to not be able to fit into anything and only be left with a couple of choices. I’d also resigned myself to having to wear a bra on my wedding day and staying away from strapless styles. BUT Ilyese gave me so many beautiful options and was super mindful of the need for extra boning in the bust, and I was able to go with an off-the-shoulder dress I loved! A bonus was Ilyese finding me a gorgeous full glitter veil. I felt seen, heard, and beautiful at Astra. I can’t thank the team enough for their help and would highly recommend Astra Bridal to any bride. <3

I had a wonderful experience at the North Shore branch. Joannah was so helpful and friendly. I felt that all the staff were invested in me and in finding something I was happy with. Joannah went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable with every step of the process.
