Astra North Shore first opened in 2005 in Takapuna, and we moved to our current location in Albany in 2018. As well as a bigger store and more gowns, we also have parking right outside; and as an added bonus our fantastic sister store The Bridal Outlet is right next door. So make sure you leave enough time to have a look in both.

The salon is a gorgeous airy space with big windows and lots of light.

We aren't in a retail precinct so it is a really quiet and relaxing experience.

Could not fault the experience I had with the team at Astra Bridal Northshore, especially Joannah. Before my appointment, I was dreading dress shopping, but the professionalism and care Joannah showed made me feel so confident in myself and in the decision I made. I ended up choosing the complete opposite type of dress from what I had originally envisioned, but it was such a fun day; even my mum and bridesmaids were stunned at how fun it was.

Being based in Tauranga, the team kept the dress safe until I was able to get back up to collect it. As it was an off the rack gown, Joannah went over the dress thoroughly to ensure there were minimal to no imperfections, which gave me complete confidence in my purchase.

Best experience!!! Mimosas on entry and top notch service. The girls here really know what they are doing. I ended up returning a second time to try a dress they brought up from Wellington at no extra cost to me. The process of purchasing and ordering is super simple, and the staff make you feel comfortable and in good hands. Joannah is absolutely incredible, knowledgeable, and a lovely person. I loved chatting with her throughout the experience.

I had the best experience with Astra Bridal! I can’t recommend them enough! The service was amazing from the first appointment to the last. My dress was more than I could have ever wanted! Lara was absolutely amazing. She was so knowledgeable, friendly, and accommodating. She showed me all the options and made everything possible. She gave her honest opinion, and remembered me from each appointment, which made the experience feel so personalised. This photo doesn’t do the sparkle justice! I got so many compliments on it and the sparkle!
