At Astra Bridal we seek out the best quality and most exciting gowns and accessories for your wedding day. If you are looking for a wedding dress in Wellington then look no further than our Wakefield Street store. This Astra Store opened in 2000 in Willis Street but then moved to our current location.
The salon is a gorgeous space with big fitting rooms and subtle colours to make you, the bride, the centre of attention.
My appointment at Astra Bridal with Lisa was a great experience. My family and I were welcomed promptly and offered refreshments, which was amazing! Lisa and her co-workers were absolutely lovely during my appointment and made the whole process so easy.
She explained different styles and gave some recommendations based on my ideas, and was patient and encouraging as I came to a final selection. Everyone in the store was so helpful on the day and has also kept me up to date with information on all aspects since ordering my dress with them.
Thank you for your time, and I highly recommend their services to any brides to be!

I had such a lovely experience from beginning to end at Astra. I went in feeling quite nervous and overwhelmed, but from the moment I arrived, they made me feel so comfortable, relaxed, and genuinely cared for. My stylist, Keala, was absolutely amazing and really knew what she was talking about. She listened to everything I liked and disliked, but also encouraged me to try a style I never would have chosen for myself, and it ended up being the dress I purchased! I’m so grateful for her knowledge and guidance throughout the whole appointment.
The entire experience felt so personal, and I couldn’t be happier with how everything went. I highly recommend Astra to any bride looking for a warm, supportive dress shopping experience.

Honestly, my experience at Astra Bridal, and with Lisa specifically, was the perfect experience. I felt at ease as soon as we started looking for my dress. She knew exactly what style I was after and what I could try to mix it up, so I could make sure I covered all bases and felt confident in my decision. She asked all the right questions and just knew her stuff!
The whole appointment was just great, and organising the financials of it really put me at ease too. I'm so happy I booked with Astra Bridal, and the selection of dresses was fantastic!
Thanks again, Lisa!
