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.
I had the most incredible experience at Astra Bridal Newmarket. It was my very first time stepping into a bridal store in search of the dress, and I couldn’t have asked for a more perfect start to the journey. From the moment I booked online, I was contacted by Ilyese to set up a Zoom meeting ahead of my appointment. That little extra step made all the difference. It really helped calm my nerves and gave me confidence walking into the store for the first time.
On the day, Ilyese made me and my guests feel so welcome and comfortable. She offered a range of dresses that suited my style and gave genuine, professional advice (she really knows her stuff!). I never felt rushed or pressured to like a certain dress. It was all about what felt right for me :0
To my absolute surprise, I ended up saying YES to the dress on my very first try-on! <3 The whole experience was special, relaxed, and full of joy. I’m so glad I chose Astra Bridal. Highly recommend to any bride-to-be starting their journey!

Had such an awesome experience at Astra Bridal with Rosie there. I first heard about this place via the NZ Wedding Podcast and heard a few girls had been here, so decided to book here to try on a few dresses. Had the video consult with Rosie prior to the appointment so she knew exactly what kind of style I was going for.
When we arrived we were treated to a mimosa and shown to our room. I had a few people with me (5 bridesmaids and my mum) which wasn’t an issue for them. Rosie showed me a few options she thought I’d like and we picked out a few more. It was a really great experience and I felt comfortable trying them all on.
The first one was THE dress and I knew it from the beginning. No pressure to purchase but I knew that was the one. Emailed later on to say YES to the dress. Overall great experience with Rosie at Astra Bridal and would highly recommend to any brides looking for a dress!

The team at Astra Bridal Newmarket is amazing. I had Rosie as my stylist, and she was phenomenal. They had such a wide range of wedding gowns and really made you feel beautiful and understood. I couldn’t recommend them enough. The thought and attention that goes into the whole process is amazing. I had the best time with them choosing my wedding dress. <3
