Our shop is in Hagley, DY9 0PX, which is close to Stourbridge, Halesowen, Kidderminster and Bromsgrove. We regularly see brides from West Midlands, Worcestershire, Warwickshire, Staffordshire and Shropshire, but over the years have had brides come to us from much further afield to find The One due to the fantastic prices of our dresses and our five star service.

As some of our dresses are sold as seen samples, where the dress you try is the one you buy, please do not come to the appointment wearing fake tan or lots of make-up as this can transfer to the dresses.

You may wish to wear the type of underwear you might wear on the day (strapless bra, body-shaping pants etc) although that isn’t essential.
The main thing to bring with you is an open mind, as very often a dress you thought you wouldn’t like could be ‘the one’!

A Ready to Go dress, also sometimes called Off the Peg or an Outlet gown, means that the dress you try is the one you buy. Most of them are ex-sample designer dresses from traditional wedding shops that were previously sold at much higher prices, but that doesn’t mean you are getting a poorer quality dress, and no one would know unless you told them!

We also have a range of brand new dresses that we can order for you in a range of sizes. They are still great value and don’t take too long to order (in some cases as little as 7 days)

Not at all! We don’t buy any dresses that are damaged or stained. Sometimes if a dress has been tried on a lot, it may have the odd dust mark and need cleaning or have a few beads that need replacing etc but it will be priced to reflect this. All dresses are sold as seen, but we will try and point out any imperfections to you, although it is your responsibility to check the dress over fully.

There’s no single answer to that question as its very much down to when you are ready. Some customers buy years before, some just weeks before – and as many of our dresses are ready to go, in theory you can buy the day before (although we wouldn’t recommend it as most will still need altering!) The question to ask yourself is are you ready to commit if you find the perfect dress? If not, then it may be too early. But to have the widest choice including dresses that need to be ordered in, you also need to take into account that some dresses may take up to five months to be come in.
