After my daughters engagement in 2015 the next exciting thought was choosing her wedding dress. We enjoyed our time together in various bridal shops which was the seed I needed. I decided to start my own bridal boutique and Carina Rose Bridal was born out of my daughters experience.
I set about searching for the right location and after two years in the making found a gorgeous shop in part of a grade two listed converted pub in Stockbridge High Street, Hampshire.My background has always been selling beautiful items. I opened my first business at 17 and have gone on to manage a large sales team in Chelsea selling luxury apartments for millions of pounds.

Houghton Lodge is a stunning location for weddings and is one of the most romantic Historic Houses in Hampshire. Overlooking the famous chalk stream of The River Test, with panoramic views over the water meadows and along the Test Valley. There is no other house in sight and no where else could offer such picturesque views, such tranquillity for your dream day.

My experience of wedding dress shopping with Carina was an absolute pleasure - as perhaps a more nervous bride she made me (and my family) feel really comfortable. She had great intuition about what would suit my figure, so much so that the first dress I tried was the one! I also really loved the setting which felt very intimate, and the fact that you are the only bride there means you have a very personalized service. We were not rushed at all and it was such a lovely day, thank you Carina!

What can I say!!! My mum found Carina's shop when visiting the farm shop just behind it. It was absolutely amazing, carina was so warm and welcoming. It was my first time trying on wedding dresses and I was so overwhelmed! I am so super fussy and carina didn't bat an eye she just gave me dresses and narrowed it down for me.
She was honest about what suited me but was never rude or anything! Her opinion was actually really helpful and I really appreciated the honesty!! When I found "the one" carina didn't hesitate to agree, which made the decision even easier!!!
In addition she was just amazing

Carina really knows her stuff, she had the perfect dress out ready for me when I went for my appointment-and that was just after talking to me on the phone! Initially I wasn't sure but as soon as I tried it on I knew she was right! How did she do that?! I guess she's just an expert at what she does!

I purchased my wedding dress from Carina Rose Bridal earlier this week (June '21). I had 3 further appointments booked with other bridal shops but I found the one here! Although there are not rails and rails of dresses, the selection is great. Carina was very attentive, friendly and honest which I appreciated! If you're searching for your perfect dress, book an appointment.

I visited Carina Rose Bridal a few months ago and was very impressed with the service. Not only were the dresses beautiful and unique, but the bridal shop itself was the most wonderful boutique to shop in. It has an incredibly homely feel and immediately put me at ease when it came to trying on dresses and feeling comfortable. The service was amazing and incredibly helpful, especially for myself who didn't have much idea on what I was looking for. The little sign on the door as we entered saying "Welcome Olivia" was a lovely touch.
Zinnia was very patient with me whilst I was trying on dresses

Not only I found the perfect wedding dress for me, but I also had a great experience at Carina Rose Bridal and highly recommend it! Carina took time to put me at ease, get to know me and understand how the wedding would be in order to give good advice. I had chance to try on many dresses from her tasteful collection and didn't feel rushed at any time. She also gives her opinion on the dresses and suggests other that could fit you, without being pushy. She has dresses on a wide range of prices and sample dresses are kept in perfect condition. I couldn't ask for more, thank you Carina!

Carina and Zinnia are fantastically patient and kind, and go to great lengths to make their customers feel valued. It was lovely to enter the shop and see my name on the door as a welcome!
We were offered tea and water and were given a glass of champagne once I found my dress which was wonderful. Carina and Zinnia double check everything to make sure it is correct and they have a fabulous array of gowns to try.
I have visited so many other shops but this is the best experience I have had and I am very happy to have found my dress here.
Thank you both, I can't wait for it to arrive!
