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.
Oh my GOODNESS. What an incredible experience!!! This was my very first time trying on wedding dresses, and after coming from a really awful experience at another store, I was feeling quite anxious. The moment we walked in, though, I was completely put at ease. The whole team was so friendly and welcoming, and Ilyese had our space set up beautifully. She explained the process clearly, the team brought us delicious mimosas, and the atmosphere instantly felt relaxed and special.
Ilyese’s knowledge of the gowns and her eye for what would suit me was amazing—so much so that the very first dress she chose ended up being the one! I truly cannot rave about her enough. She was professional, warm, and made me feel so special throughout the entire appointment.
Thank you for such a memorable experience and for helping me find my perfect dress—I am beyond excited! I couldn’t recommend this store more highly to any bride-to-be.

Probably the only try-on experience you'll need, to be honest. The whole team is so welcoming, but Brooke specifically is amazing. It felt like I was chatting with a friend. The space itself felt elegant and feminine, but also super approachable, not catty or stuffy at all. Brooke knew exactly what I was after, but still picked out a few different styles because why not try a bit of everything? I ultimately ended up getting my dream dress here with basically zero stress. Pricing is also reasonable (for wedding things, lol).

I had the most wonderful experience here with my stylist Brooke. She has been the biggest help in saying yes to the dress. She offered great suggestions and really helped me have my bridal moment. I highly recommend the team here as they are all amazing, super friendly, and just such an all around amazing experience. The video consult before the actual appointment helped so much and it meant we were ready to try on dresses as soon as we arrived. The mimosas were an added bonus and I just felt like absolute royalty the entire time. Nothing has been too much and I just feel so happy to have had such an amazing experience.
