Rookery Bridal provided an amazing wedding dress buying experience. Sarah was friendly and approachable right from the start, whilst remaining professional at all times. Communication was great throughout the process - from booking the first session to try on, right through to collecting my dress after the complementary pre-wedding steam.

 

Rookery Bridal have a huge choice of dresses to view/try on and there was plenty of time with no rush which made for the perfect experience with my mum and bridesmaids. Sarah was great at adjusting/fitting the dresses to give you the best idea of how it would look once you have the right size.

 

Sarah is passionate about her dresses, referring to each of them as ‘she’. It really felt like Sarah wanted the best outcome for me. Having tried on a number of dresses in the shop, she suggested one that took all the elements I liked and was pretty much perfect. After a visit to another shop, I needed to make a decision between two dresses. Sarah was patient and, during a second visit, explained what possible alterations could be made to the dress. She even contacted the designer/factory and arranged for main alterations to be made to the dress at the point of making the dress to avoid making the alterations later down the line. We also picked out the perfect veil to go with my dress. Nothing was too much trouble for Sarah!

 

I would highly recommend Rookery Bridal to any future brides. I loved wearing my dress on the day and couldn’t have been happier with my wedding dress shopping experience - thank you Sarah and Rookery Bridal team!

What an incredible experience. From stepping in the door and being so incredibly nervous, I was instantly put at ease, and felt so welcomed into the boutique. They allowed me to express myself and gave me the time and affection to trial lots of different things (even though we knew straight away which one we loved!). I could not recommend Rookery enough. I am still buzzing from the morning with them and will remember that very special day forever. Thank you so, so much. I can't wait to come back in once the dress has arrived!

The most perfect bridal boutique EVER!! Sarah was amazing, she listened to me, got to know my personality and used her professional skills to ultimately help me find the dress of my dreams! She was so patient, I tried on a lot of dresses but never felt pressured, I went in super nervous and very quickly relaxed. It was honestly the best day, I enjoyed every second. Every single dress was beautiful and if I could’ve taken them all I would’ve! Thank you so much Sarah for your kindness, patience, knowledge and love. 🤍

I had the best experience at Rookery Bridal where I was very lucky to find my dream dress. Jemma was so helpful and patient and the whole experience was so fun and seamless, I felt so comfortable throughout. They really go above and beyond, even reaching out prior to the appointment to get a good feel of my vibe and what I was looking for. I am so happy to have found my dress here and would recommend them to anyone!

I had the best experience at Rookery Bridal after a few disappointing visits to other bridal shops!

 

The staff was incredibly patient as I tried on numerous dresses. They never made me feel rushed or like I was choosing the wrong options. I appreciated that they allowed me to explore, take my time, and even come back to try on the dress I thought I wanted again — which I ultimately bought! The atmosphere was relaxing and stress-free, and I would highly recommend them to anyone.

 

When I had my alterations done elsewhere, a small issue arose, and they offered to help fix it for free, which was so kind and I felt looked after.

 

All the ladies I met there, especially Sarah and Nicke, were kind, lovely, and funny! Thank you for restoring my faith in bridal shopping and ensuring I had the wedding dress experience I always wanted.

I was of the honest opinion that I was just going to browse some dresses and certainly wasn't going to buy! Jemma put me at complete ease and the fact we had spoken before hand and she knew a little bit about me really helped me relax! The whole thing from start to finish was amazing and I found my dress. ❤️
I can't thank Jemma enough and for bearing with me throughout the whole process.

I cannot praise Rookery Bridal enough. I was very apprehensive about looking for a wedding dress but still wanted the full dress try on experience like you see on TV. They fully delivered and were beyond supportive!! It's such a lovely environment. I live in North Devon so travelled over an hour to get there and it was completely worth it. They are so knowledgeable and guided me with my choice and all the accessories perfectly matched, better than I had envisioned. If you want the full experience then this is the place to go!

I recently booked an appointment at Rookery Bridal and was truly impressed by their professionalism from the start. Even when I needed to change my appointment date, the team remained understanding and accommodating. After numerous disappointing experiences at other boutiques—where I felt rushed and pressured due to the limited time until my wedding—Rookery Bridal stood out for its genuine care and personalised service.

 

Jemma messaged me few days before my appointment, she reached out to learn about my preferences and took note of a dress I loved, even though it wasn’t available in-store at the time. To my delight, when I arrived, THE DRESS WAS THERE!!. Her thoughtful approach and attention to detail truly set the tone for a wonderful experience.

 

Together with the owner, Jemma ensured that both my bridesmaids and I felt comfortable and cared for throughout our visit. They made the process enjoyable and stress-free, and I left feeling more excited than ever about finding the perfect dress for my big day.

 

I truly recommend Rookery Bridal to anyone looking for a bridal boutique that values personalized service, genuine care, and an exceptional shopping experience!

I’m not typically the ‘girly’ type, but my sister discovered Rookery Bridal, and we decided to make the trip from Plymouth. It was absolutely worth it. I was initially nervous stepping out of my comfort zone, but the team made me feel at ease, catering to all types of brides. Each staff member assisted us on different occasions, offering personalized help. With such a wide range of beautiful dresses and styles I never felt rushed or pressured and my family felt warmly welcomed too. The variety of choices is impressive, and the customer service is exceptional. A special thank you to Gemma too for the last couple times visiting, she was incredible and thoroughly went above and beyond to make sure we were looked after. I can’t thank you enough for making this part of my wedding journey so memorable! P.S The new location is beautiful too!
