The perfect dress for the perfect day
We love our job, and it's not hard to work out why. Spending all day surrounded by beautiful dresses and helping excited brides find the perfect big day gown is certainly a dream job for many. And we're very lucky that 99.9% of our clients are faultless in their loveliness. Which makes the entire process, and mechanics of running a wedding dress shop even more rewarding.
The cherry on top of the bridal shopping experience we have with brides, is receiving their wedding day pictures. Seeing how they finally looked on the big day, in a gown we spent months making sure was perfect, is priceless. And if you are a Bellissima bride, and you're reading this, please send us your pics if you haven't already! We can't promise to post them because we're busy bees. But we do promise you'll make our day by sending them!
A bride who recently sent her pictures over is Emma, who tied the knot towards the end of last year in a super chic Justin Alexander gown. The big day took place in Paphos, Cyprus, and as you'll see from her pictures, Emma's gown suited the backdrop perfectly.

We're delighted to be sharing a couple of pics from Emma's Cypriot celebration, alongside a little more about the happy couple and their journey.
How did you meet?
At work, back in 2014.
Where did you get engaged?
In Reykjavík, Iceland, our favourite place.
What was your favourite moment from the wedding?
When the last sunset photo had been taken, and we looked out into the distance together like WOW, we did it!
Tell us all about your wedding dress. What details do you love, how did it make you feel?
The Cambria by Justin Alexander, it was the first wedding dress I tried on, and I knew from that moment it was the one. Loved the simplicity of the design, but the sparkly top made it feel special.
What was the general decor for your big day?
We used lots of white, hints of green from the Gypsophila, while our bridesmaids were in Navy blue and the men were in beige.
Do you have any advice for future Bellissima Brides?
Go with your gut! My dress wasn't my friends/families first choice, but I knew it was the right one for me.
How was your Bellissima experience?
10/10. I'm so glad I went with Bellissima! You were actually recommended to me by a friend who was also a Bellissima bride.
A huge thank you for helping me find the wedding dress of my dreams. From the first appointment, it was a fantastic experience. The hand luggage packaging was also superb and gave me real piece of mind all the way up to the big day.
