Courtyard Bridal, what a fantastic find!

Courtyard Bridal, what a fantastic find! Marie made me feel really relaxed especially for someone who hates clothes shopping and I thoroughly enjoyed the experience. I went in to see a specific dress which didn’t suit me when I tried it on. Marie then found lots more which were well within budget which I loved. I never felt rushed or pressured- quite the opposite! Wholeheartedly recommend!

I had such a great experience!

a year ago I had such a great experience and highly recommend Courtyard Bridal to anyone trying to find their perfect wedding dress. Marie couldn’t be more helpful and made the whole experience amazing and super easy. I went twice, firstly with my mum and sister and then with my friends and both times I felt relaxed and not rushed. Marie offered lots of advice and options to assist with finding the right dress and made me feel extremely comfortable the whole time (lovely also having a glass of Prosecco on arrival). Courtyard Bridal also has lovely accessories to enable you to get the full look of how the dress will be on the day. I am very indecisive and Marie was very patient while I debated and discussed every last detail! Overall, I can’t fault Courtyard Bridal and Marie for her attentive customer service. Thank you!

Loved our special experience at Courtyard Bridal

4 months ago I had a wonderful experience with Marie in Courtyard Bridal. She listened to everything I wished for. Marie puts everyone at ease and loves helping brides and bridesmaids to find their dresses. Everything was a our own pace. We didnt feel one ounce of pressure. Everything was at our own pace right until the moment I said yes to my beautiful dress ! This was our 8th bridal shop experience across Hampshire and Dorset. It really stands out not only because of finding my dress, but because of how pleasant and calm the whole experience was, thanks to Marie. We were able to design my own veil, which was the icing on the cake. Amazing ! There was such flexibility with dresses and veils being able to be ordered in different colours , necklines, lace , features etc. Marie often has amazing offers on. Brilliant selection of dresses to suit different tastes and styles . Wide selection of flower girl and bridesmaid dresses. Loved our special experience at Courtyard Bridal . Thank you !

The most wonderful and personal bridal shopping

3 months ago The most wonderful and personal bridal shopping experience you could wish for. Marie was so welcoming, she couldn't do enough to help me find my perfect dress. The variety of dresses I was able to try was fantastic and I felt so comfortable in what would normally be a situation I would feel self conscious. My friends and I had a wonderful evening and I'm so happy to have found a beautiful dress at such an incredible price. Would highly recommend, 5 stars isn't enough! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
