Kelly, the shop closes down end of August, and her dresses are really lovely. Its a small shop with a huge changing room, feels really personal. she has bridesmaid dresses as low as £20

wow thats great prices pitty i have already picked my dress or it would be worth the travel for that price a dress x
CommentAuthorRaggedyAnne
the £20 one was a childs dress mind you. a 2 piece burgundy satin dress for about a 10 yr old. her bridesmaids dresses were upstairs so didnt see them, just what was in the shop window.

Hi RaggedyAnne! I already have my dress, I got mine from Belle & Bouquet in Wellingore, would really recommend it to anyone, they have the biggest selection of dresses compared to the other dress shops I have been to. I had a look in Elite Bridal but there wasn't that much left and all the flower girls dresses were small sizes and I didnt want to risk my flower girl having a growth spurt! There was some lovely bridal dresses though (had a quick nosey!) xx

The registry office building isnt very impressive from the outside, but inside its really pretty and bright....and across the car park there is a walled garden and we had some lovely pictures in there.......its really lovely, and the registrars are really really nice...
I havent got any ceremony pictures back yet, but I do have some garden ones....
