Testimonials

I had such a lovely experience finding my dress here! Chanelle was amazing—so kind, patient, and genuinely excited to help. She made the whole process feel easy and special. I found a dress I absolutely love, and I’m so grateful to Chanelle for being such a big part of that!

An absolutely fabulous experience at Astra Bridal North Shore. They have a fantastic range of wedding dresses to choose from and try on. The team goes out of their way to ensure you’re comfortable and have an enjoyable experience while you’re there—they know it’s a special moment for you to find the dress! Sarah was excellent and so attentive to everything we asked to try. She made suggestions and clearly knew the gowns very well. I’d recommend a trip to Astra Bridal to any bride to be! Thank you, Sarah, and all the girls at Astra, for helping me find my dress!!

I went to Astra in Newmarket, and also visited two other bridal stores. I cannot recommend Astra Newmarket and Ilyese highly enough. The experience here was so much more relaxing than the others, and I think overall a better quality selection. Ilyese was amazing and completely got what I was after. She was then able to pick other dresses based on what we liked and didn’t like, which was super helpful to narrow it down. It turned out it was actually the first dress—and she nailed it in one! But it was good to try the others to make sure. Ilyese went above and beyond to help me try things so I was happy and knew I was getting the right dress for me, even getting some other options from other Astra stores when I went back to re-try, which was a huge help. Ilyese, thank you so much for your help finding my dress! I really appreciated your advice and expertise. After trying some other dresses elsewhere in the style I was after that really didn’t suit my shape, I didn’t think I would actually get something in the style I wanted—so thank you so much!

My wedding was about two weeks out, and I made a last minute decision to buy a white wedding dress. Previously, I was going to opt for cultural wear only. Super last minute, but the team did an amazing job to help. I was worried I wouldn’t be able to find anything so close to the date, but Kryslin was patient and helpful, and did everything she could to help me find a dress. We even ended up getting a dress sent from a different store—it was delivered the next day, and I could go in and try it on. When I had no responses from tailors, Kryslin went out of her way to help find me one who could fit me in last minute. Erika was also fantastic! I sent my sister in to pick up my dress and help find a veil. She was super helpful and patient as we went through all the different veil options. Thank you, ladies, for your help! <3

I bought my wedding dress from here for a wedding in 2025! They could not have been more helpful. I went in, and they immediately found a dress that I loved—genuinely, it was the first one I tried on. Every other dress paled in comparison, but I gave them a go anyway. It was such a quick choice, and I never had any doubts after. I highly, highly recommend the team there for their kindness and knowledge. Thank you so much!

Thank you, Astra Bridal. You made the experience of finding my dream dress so easy and stress-free. I really valued your insight and knowledge, especially encouraging me to try all sorts of styles instead of just one. If you hadn’t, I wouldn’t have found my dream dress. You’re all so kind and patient, which made the whole experience even more enjoyable. Thank you, thank you, thank you! :)

I had an absolutely amazing experience here, and Brooke was the amazing lady who walked my mum and me through everything. She made us feel incredibly comfortable, was so patient, and really listened to everything I was trying to say. We worked together to narrow down a dress that I absolutely loved! I’ll be purchasing it closer to my wedding date, but I honestly didn’t expect to have such a luxurious, comfortable, and amazing experience. I’m so thankful to Brooke for making it all happen for us at Astra Bridal! Thanks so much to the whole team for helping us brides and for being so organised and compassionate. Also, not to mention—they had dresses to suit different budgets and a big variety, which was great!

Brooke at Astra Bridal Newmarket was so lovely! She helped me feel comfortable, relaxed, and confident—and we had some laughs along the way too. I said “yes to the dress” in the first session, which I was so surprised about! The whole team was incredibly kind and helpful. Would definitely recommend!

I had such a great experience finding my dream dress at Astra Bridal Newmarket! The team is so friendly and supportive in helping you find the dress that suits you best. Brooke went above and beyond to make sure I had everything I needed for the full bridal look. I can’t thank the team enough — I felt so welcomed, and they made a special experience absolutely perfect!

Brooke and Ilyese were lovely and helped make my gown hunting experience completely stress-free — and I genuinely enjoyed it! They have an awesome eye for styles that suited me and are truly amazing people. Super professional and clearly know what they’re talking about. 10/10 would recommend!
