MEET ROCHELLE
I started my business in 2014 - resulting in leaving my corporate events career and living in London to coming back to my home town Wokingham.
I always new I had a bit of an entrepreneur in me… it was just finding what in. After a family member couldn’t believe the stresses and pressure on wedding dress shopping. The pressured timeframes, the pressure to spend a fortune. She couldn’t afford the dress she wanted to travelled around peoples houses after looking on eBay and Facebook.
This gave me my enterpreneurial ideal!
So I created my vision of a bridal shop that didn’t have the pressure of timelines and made wedding dress shopping stressless and affordable. But still offering luxury designer dresses.
I take the stress of searching for the most desired dresses as brand new or perfect samples having them all under one roof at hugely reduced prices. Brides can get that designer they thought was out of budget.
Personal me… it was pretty hard dating when the first questions they asked is what do you do.. they run a mile knowing you own a bridal shop. But I eventually found one that didn’t run and became my biggest supporter. We got married in Italy in 2019. ( my tinder date 😂 )
I became a mother in 2022 - after the devastating news I couldn’t have kids naturally. I spent 2.5 years on IVF and finally got our miracle Rae.
I have a love for Frenchies, tattoos , piercings, working out, girls messy brunch days, gorgeous holidays.
I pride myself on not being a stuffy bridal shop, I’m a chilled , modern girl.
