Louise made me feel so special and gave me the fairytale experience
With wanting a Fairytale wedding, Fairytale Gowns was the bridal shop I knew I had to go to. From walking in the door, Louise made me feel so special and gave me the fairytale experience of picking my dress and after only trying on a few dresses she picked the perfect one for me.
All my bridesmaid and flower girl dress were from Fairytale gowns as well. Both Louise and her seamstress made the perfect flower girl dresses with using material from the older bridesmaid to make dresses that matched both my dress and the bridesmaid dresses.
Thank you for helping me find my dream dress!

The experience I had with fairytale Gowns left me feeling so excited and beautiful
I was starting to lose faith in finding a wedding dress, after being to a couple of fittings beforehand where I was made to feel very self conscious. I was actually dreading my next fitting, however the experience I had with fairytale Gowns left me feeling so excited and beautiful in the wedding dress I had chosen.
Every fitting was a delight to go to and nothing was a problem. I can’t thank Louise enough for making me feel one in million in the dress I picked which helped me with my confidence. You never felt rushed at all at any appointment.

Lou made me feel relaxed, comfortable and made the whole experience feel special
From the moment I arranged my initial appointment , Lou made me feel relaxed, comfortable and made the whole experience feel as Special as it should be.
There was a great selection of gowns and Lou’s extensive knowledge and guidance, made the selection process completely stress free. As an older bride, I was dreading the dress shopping. I really need not to have worried. Lou was and remains my fairytale gown godmother. X

Even if you’re not local, it’s 100% worth the trip, the personal touch and care you receive here are second to none.
I first visited Fairytale Gowns back in 2014 when my mum was searching for her wedding dress for her wedding. From the moment we walked in, we were blown away by Louise’s kind nature, infectious laugh, and incredible customer service.
When it came to my own wedding in 2017, there was absolutely no question about where I’d go, I knew I had to go back to Louise. She helped me find the perfect style for me, offering honest advice without any pressure, and made the whole experience so special. I truly felt like a princess.
I couldn’t recommend this Fairytale Gowns highly enough. Even if you’re not local, it’s 100% worth the trip, the personal touch and care you receive here are second to none.

My experience at fairytale gowns was just out of this world. Words cannot explain how lovely, helpful and knowledgeable Louise is. The shop has the most beautiful selection of dresses, and nothing was ever too much trouble for Louise helping me decide my dream dress!
I will never be able to explain how much the whole experience meant to me, and how I will treasure it forever xxx

Thank you for making the best days of my life even better with the perfect gown!
Fairytale gowns holds a special place in my heart! I found my dream prom dress back in 2015, so it was only fitting that I returned for my bridal gown and bridesmaids dresses in 2023!
Louise is so warm and welcoming and knows the dress for you! Thank you for making the best days of my life even better with the perfect gown!

Louise was just the nicest and kindest lady and made me feel so welcome
I went to fairytale gowns (not having a clue what I wanted and then I met my fairy godmother Louise..) she was just the nicest and kindest lady and made me feel so welcome and who knew the first dress I tried on was the one… easy as that!
Such a beautiful place and Louise is just amazing! Would highly recommend to anyone searching for their dream dress! Thanks again Jade x
