Not sure where to start your wedding dress search? Here are the boutiques we've noted our clients frequenting - and we're big fans!
We could really spend all day looking at wedding dress inspiration and building bridal Pinterest boards, but for those of you not sure where to start, here's a list of some of our favourite London bridal boutiques and wedding dress designers.
1. Temperley Bridal
‘Inspired by old school Hollywood glamour and film noir icons’, it's easy to see why Alice Temperley has a hoard of celebrity fans, from Kate Middleton to Millie Mackintosh and Keira Knightley. Temperley Bridal frequents the pages of Vogue and fashion columns alike. The famed name no-doubt comes with a hefty price tag, but we think it’s well worth a trip to their Colville Mews store for a truly magical experience, or at least a scroll through their latest, dreamy collection.
2. Charlie Brear
Millennials interested in current and creative design should check out Charlie Brear - definitely a destination that tops our list of the best wedding dress shops in London. Young, fun and contemporary, Charlie caters for the design-conscious bride of today. Her wedding dress career began in 2005 when she noted her friends’ interest in alternative wedding attire, and after selling one-off pieces began to design her own collections of Bridal and evening wear.
Check out Charlie Brear's 2022 collection, complete with star-embroidered lace and the plunge-neck jumpsuit of dreams. This brand suits the easy-going, trendy bride with major cool-girl vibes. Where high-fashion meets contemporary lifestyle, be sure to give them a follow on Instagram and a visit to the store.
3. Blake Ida
This is one to get excited about - the wedding dress designs at Blake Ida have us captivated, and we can't wait to see what this blossoming brand brings out next. Laid-back meets high fashion, some may call Blake Ida's approach to modern wedding dress styling Parisian in taste, whilst there is something undoubtedly 'London' about the rule-busting designs. Alongside their innovative collections, Blake Ida offer a bespoke service, allowing you to work collaboratively with their founder and designer, Carrie Matthews.
