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 such a wonderful experience with Astra Bridal. The video consult was fantastic, and I instantly clicked with my consultant, Joannah. She (and the team) were so welcoming, friendly, and incredibly helpful. Joannah was so accommodating with multiple dress try-ons and curated the perfect selection for me. I came back a second time and finally said “yes to the dress” after a couple of weeks of um-ing and ah-ing, and the team genuinely made my dream gown a reality! I can’t wait to wear it on my wedding day. Highly recommend!

I had a great experience at Astra Bridal! The team there was lovely and knowledgeable, which made the experience a positive one. Joannah was so patient with me when I wasn't sure what kind of dress I was after. She listened and was great at asking me questions in order to find my perfect wedding dress. She was supportive and encouraging, and it made the whole experience fun and stress free. Finding my dress was a special and memorable experience thanks to the team at Astra Bridal North Shore.

I had the most phenomenal experience with Lara and the Astra Bridal team. After a previous appointment with another boutique, I felt deflated and like I hadn’t been guided or supported in choosing a dress. With Lara, it was the complete opposite experience. She is so knowledgeable, takes the time to understand what you really want, and is honest and caring throughout the whole experience.
