Susanne was absolutely wonderful, she opened last minute to help my aunt. She instantly understood what my aunt was after and was brilliant at suggesting and guiding her. Enormous selection of gowns, such a lovely environment and fabulous manner. If wedding dresses were something you bought regularly we'd definitely be back all the time!

I bought my dress in Feb 2019 after a lovely in store experience - they made me feel very comfortable, and went out of their way to help me find the perfect gown. Following purchase I had one round of fitting in November 2019. In December I was diagnosed with a condition that causes extreme bloating and meant the dress no longer fit following food. They managed to squeeze me in for a final fitting a fortnight before the wedding, with final collection the week before to ensure the best fit possible - and it does, beautifully. I can't praise their seamstress Krystyna highly enough, she has done impeccable

I bought my wedding dress from this shop - travelled all the way from south Wales but it was so worth it! Other places I had visited had no privacy and felt like I was on a conveyor belt. At cutting edge me my mum and my bridesmaids had the place to ourselves and I got to try on lots of dresses before finding the perfect one. The staff were all lovely and very patient with me! The dress itself was so comfortable and elegant on the day, everyone commented on how the 50s style dress really suited the rustic venue. I was able to run around and greet guests with ease whilst still looking bridal! Can

When I went to cutting edge brides I was a bit weary as I'd had a really bad experience in another shop. Jaimie made me feel so welcome and settled my nerves straight away. We tried on the dresses that I wanted and there this pretty little one that I thought wouldn't suit. She told me to try it on anyway and I instantly fell in love. I told her that my dream was to have a red wedding dress and she made it happen! I chose the Emily dress from Rita Mae. Thank you to all who made my dream come true, I was so overwhelmed with compliments from everyone on the day! Couldn't recommend this shop enough

Cutting Edge Brides is a lovely shop with a beautiful selection of dresses! I was initially so nervous because this was my first appointment, but it turned out to be the only one I needed. Finding my wedding dress was an effortless and enjoyable experience. Jamie was so helpful and helped explain the entire process so clearly, I really appreciated all of her help!

I can't rate Suzanne and her team highly enough. From my first visit, where they put me at ease, made me and my party comfortable and then helped me chose 'the one' after trying on quite a number of options, to my last appointment when I went to collect my dress. Every visit I made Suzanne has been on hand to answer questions and guide me with advice. Christina the seamstress has done a beautiful job making my dress fit perfectly and I now can't wait to show it off on my special day. If you want to feel and look beautiful then I thoroughly recommend Cutting Edge Brides.

I am in the process of fitting for my wedding dress and I must say that my experience at your beautiful shop was excellent. Suzanne and Jo took their time, didn't pressure me and were completely honest in their approach. There were so many amazing dresses and I can't wait to try mine on again in a few months time. Thank you for making my experience a relaxed and easy one!
