Hosted by studio owner & designer Russell Blackburn , our VIP appointments are perfect if you’re looking for a more one to one experience to finding your dress. These appointments come with the privacy and exclusive use of the studio for an hour & includes a glass of bubbly for you and your guests to enjoy.

Your appointment begins with a relaxed consultation with Russell where he will immediately put you at ease and take the time to talk through your plans for your day to build up a picture of themes, styles, colour schemes, venue and the overall vision for the wedding. Any concerns over body shape and dress styles can be discussed at this stage to ensure Russell is equipped with all the information he needs before selecting a careful and considered edit of dresses for you to try on and kick start the shopping process.

Premium appointments are priced at £50 and can be booked fromTue to Saturday, and dedicated Sundays.

Please note this fee is non-refundable but is redeemable against your gown purchase.
