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!

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

I had such an incredible experience at Astra Bridal Newmarket! I first visited during their annual sale to try on a few styles. Although I didn’t find the one that day, Brooke was absolutely amazing—so helpful, patient, and genuinely lovely throughout the whole visit.

A couple of weeks later, I came back with one particular dress in mind. It turned out to be the perfect day! Brooke listened so carefully to everything I liked and didn’t like based on dresses I’d tried elsewhere and helped me pull some beautiful options. She completely understood my vision, and with her help, I found the one—a dress I didn’t expect but absolutely fell in love with.

I was shopping alone, with my mum on FaceTime from the UK, and Brooke went above and beyond to make it special. She gave my mum a full tour and showed her all the angles so she could feel like she was right there with me. It honestly meant so much.

The whole experience was just amazing. I left absolutely buzzing and so excited to wear my dress! I can’t recommend Brooke and the team enough—they made what could have been a nerve-wracking process feel joyful, relaxed, and truly special. Thank you so much!
