“Looking for a wedding dress wasn’t something I thought I’d be doing after being with my better half for 20 years.. But here we are planning our wedding day. I looked online and found a dress at Serenity bridal and decided to go. The dress I wanted didn’t fit but Stevie was there to save the day… Stevie was my consultant and what a wonderful lady she is, from start to finish she was attentive and ran around finding dresses that we could try on. Stevie made me feel just wonderful and confident, her lovely personality made my very overwhelming experience of finding the right dress for me much easier. After just my second visit with Stevie I said yes to the dress and I can’t wait to wear it…. Thank you Stevie… you are a star. ⭐️ Everyone at the shop were so lovely and very happy to help and had all the time in the world for me. Thank you all at Serenity Brides 💗”

“I had the best time trying on wedding dresses and finding my perfect dress, all staff were very welcoming and friendly and accommodating to our every need, couldn't ask for a better place to find my amazing dress for my special day. I would highly recommend to anyone, also a massive thankyou to Gemma who was the lady that helped me find the right one. She was so patient understanding and fantastic at her job and I honestly felt so comfortable and relaxed with her. Thankyou so much again for all your help.”
