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.
An absolutely fabulous experience at Astra Bridal North Shore. They have a fantastic range of wedding dresses to choose from and try on. The team goes out of their way to ensure you’re comfortable and have an enjoyable experience while you’re there—they know it’s a special moment for you to find the dress! Sarah was excellent and so attentive to everything we asked to try. She made suggestions and clearly knew the gowns very well. I’d recommend a trip to Astra Bridal to any bride to be! Thank you, Sarah, and all the girls at Astra, for helping me find my dress!!

I bought my wedding dress from here for a wedding in 2025! They could not have been more helpful. I went in, and they immediately found a dress that I loved—genuinely, it was the first one I tried on. Every other dress paled in comparison, but I gave them a go anyway. It was such a quick choice, and I never had any doubts after. I highly, highly recommend the team there for their kindness and knowledge. Thank you so much!

The service from start to finish was amazing! Such professional and knowledgeable staff. I came in with a clean slate and left with a dress that brought me to tears—it was that perfect. They were so patient, taking the time to understand my preferences, suggest alternatives, and help with accessories that suited me perfectly. I cannot thank them enough for their humour and passion in making me feel more comfortable and beautiful than I ever imagined. To the team—and especially to my AMAZING stylist, Joannah—a massive thank you! You truly made me feel like a princess. <3
