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.
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!

I was so happy with my experience at Astra Bridal. Sarah helped me on the day, she is so personable, kind, and really went above and beyond. She was patient and took the time to understand my style, then helped me find my dream dress! My family felt so included, and we just had so much fun. Thank you, Sarah!

I had the most wonderful experience at Astra Bridal. The whole team is absolutely lovely and made me feel so comfortable from the moment I walked in. I was looked after by Lara, who was amazing — so kind, supportive, and genuinely cared about helping me find the perfect dress. They have such a fantastic selection of gowns, and they had no problem transferring a dress from another store for me to try after I had no luck with my first appointment… which actually ended up being the one! Highly recommend!
