Jessica Bridal

Lovely dresses and a very helpful staff. I was the bridesmaid so had the easy job but the whole experience was almost like you see on TV (without the champagne).
I’d recommend it to other brides and bridesmaids.

This is as unlikely a review as I would ever expect to be writing. If I had passed Jessica Bridal on the street I would have maybe got a little bit sick in my mouth. No offence it’s just these kinds of shops are pretty cheesy ya know?
However I first found it on the Internet and boy am I glad I did. It was here I first got the inspiration for wearing a ruby red dress on my wedding day. Indeed, I nearly bought one that I saw featured in the «After Six» section of their website. But it wasn’t quite right and luckily for me my friend the up-​and-​coming brilliant fashion designer Kiri Nathan was prepared to do it for me at mates rates. But.
Finding the right fabric in the right colour proved to be darn near impossible and I hunted high and low in all the nooks of crannies of Auckland where such a thing as ruby red silk chiffon might be found. To no avail. I then remembered where it all began — Jessica’s. I looked online again — yes, all their gowns were available in the full colour range of silks, satins and SILK CHIFFONS.
I went in and explained myself and she said it was no problem at all; they would be happy to supply me with the fabric only. True, the colour samples were tiny but it was closest I had got by far and the price was RIDICULOUS. (Many capitals here — it’s that kind of story.)
Three weeks later as promised my package was ready to collect and I had my fabric. Even Kiri was amazed at such a resource — we had literally been to every trade fabric house in the city, along with many others and clever Jessica Bridal has a fabulous quality source straight from China at excellent prices.
And she was lovely to deal with and so happy to help. And she does do some nice dresses if you can get over the whole «bridal» thing, which I never really did. I just don’t like being told how I SHOULD do things but I’m sure Jessica would never do that; she’s deeply choice.
