At Astra Bridal we seek out the best quality and most exciting gowns and accessories for your wedding day. If you are looking for a wedding dress in Auckland then look no further than our Newmarket store. The original Astra Store opened in Symonds Street in 1996 - how bridal fashion has changed! In 2022 we are exciting to move to Newmarket, and still deliver the same excellent service and a chance to share in your wedding day by helping you find the perfect wedding gown.
The Most Incredible Bridal Experience
I bought my wedding dress from Astra Bridal, and I have to say, Ilyese is one of the most stunning humans I’ve ever met. Her customer care, genuine love for what she does, and humble yet incredible eye for design are absolutely unmatched. She made me feel supported, celebrated, and completely understood throughout the entire process.
The dresses? Unreal. The customer care? On another level. The pricing? So reasonable for the quality and experience. From the moment I walked in, I was welcomed with mimosas, warmth, and the most beautiful, personalised service. The whole shop has such a special vibe, and you can tell everyone truly cares. They even offer front-of-line employee appointments at a discount.
I cannot recommend Ilyese and Astra Bridal as a whole enough. She made choosing my wedding dress one of the happiest, easiest, and most memorable parts of wedding planning. <3

Thank you so much to the incredible team at Astra Bridal for making the entire wedding dress process such an easy and enjoyable experience! A very special thank you to Ilyese for going above and beyond to ensure I'll look and feel my absolute best on my big day. What can often be a stressful and nerve-wracking time for brides was the complete opposite for me. From the moment I walked in, Ilyese made me feel so comfortable, truly listened to everything I wanted and needed, and was endlessly accommodating, thoughtful, and passionate. You can tell right away that she genuinely loves what she does. I never expected to find THE ONE at my very first consultation, but thanks to you, Ilyese, I did, and I couldn’t be more grateful. <3
I highly recommend Astra Bridal Newmarket if you’re looking for the most amazing bridal experience!

It's been a couple of weeks since saying YES to the dress, and I still can't stop raving about my experience with the Astra team, specifically Ilyese!!! She was so amazing that instead of purchasing the dress I had originally picked from their site, I ended up going with a dress Ilyese had picked out for me. I took my mum and aunt with me, and they could not stop smiling at the dress she picked out.
100/100 for the service at Astra Bridal. Literally felt like I was picking out a dress with a group of my gal pals. It did not feel awkward at all. Highly recommend!!!
