Lisa has been involved in bridal since she can remember. Sometimes fitting sewing and designing around raising her children or having another job. When the opportunity came up to combine her passion and a career in the industry she jumped at the chance. It took no time for her to move in to the position of manager and has led the team in Wellington for a number of years. Her expertise in gown construction is fabulous and any bride lucky enough to be with Lisa will receive the benefit of that knowledge. But the construction knowledge is only part of the enthusiasm and love of bridal that Lisa can bring to a bride's experience at Astra.

Lisa was very welcoming and helpful. I went in with no preconceived ideas of what I liked and they were able to help me narrow it down and made suggestions that I wouldn't have picked for myself - one of which was the one I ended up buying!

Lisa and the team were absolutely amazing! They were so helpful and made the whole experience just unforgettable. I was super nervous to try on dresses and they made me feel very comfortable. I was also so amazed at how they provided toys and entertained my toddler whilst I was trying on dresses. That was really helpful!

I had the most amazing experience with Lisa. She listened to exactly what I wanted in a dress and had me try on many options that suited my body shape. She gave me so many helpful tips on what areas of my body I should be showing off more and how we could enhance them. Lisa made me feel beautiful in everything I tried on. I ended up going back a week later to try on my top 2 dresses and chose one of them, which was everything I was wanting in my dress and more. I can’t wait to wear my dress! Would definitely recommend Astra Bridal!
