Your Sussex Wedding - October/November 2024 (Issue 111)

GET IN TOUCH Windmill Shopping Village, Yapton Road, Barnham PO22 0BD 07599 245 040 contact@bijoubridal.co.uk https://bijoubridal.co.uk BIJOU BRIDAL BOUTIQUE Lisa and Ella from Bijou Bridal Boutique have just celebrated the store’s 10th anniversary. It all began in Lisa’s log cabin in her back garden. After a year, the duo opened their own boutique in Barnham, West Sussex. “As two sisters passionate about everything wedding-related, we’ve loved every moment of the journey,” they told us. “We’re proud to have earned five-star reviews on Google, thanks to our wonderful clients.” What’s your favourite gown in store at the moment? It’s hard to pick our favourite dress as there are so many we’re excited about! However, Sincerity 44332 has just arrived into the Boutique and it’s causing quite a stir! It’s a Mikado A-line bridal gown with a modern twist on tradition. The square neckline offers something unique with a scoop back, which seems very popular at the moment. It also features a bow at the back – one of our favourite details in general! I love lace and want to incorporate it into my gown. Do you have any suggestions of how I can do this without making the design look old-fashioned? Sincerity Bridal 44445 is a simple chic design, which again seems to be quite on trend at the moment. For brides who prefer a simple style like this but want to incorporate some lace, we suggest a cathedral-length veil with lace edging. This addition brings a dramatic touch to the outfit. When the bride tries on the veil, it often brings tears to the eyes of the bridal party! COUTURE & TIARAS Couture & Tiaras is a friendly family-owned boutique founded 16 years ago when owner Dudu’s daughter was just four years old. “I started out in the modelling industry at the tender age of 14 and have always grown up in the fashion world with a great passion and a good eye for upcoming trends,” she explains. The boutique began with a small catchment but has now expanded, looking after brides as far away from its Sussex base as London, Scotland and overseas. What’s your favourite gown in store at the moment? This is a difficult one, it’s like choosing the favourite child! If I’m honest I have a new favourite every day! At this present moment it’s Cinderella from the Disney Fairytale Collection. Once I’ve ordered my dress, what can I expect? What’s the process and importantly how much time do I need to allow from shopping to big day? You’re celebrated from the moment you enter our door. Every bride is welcomed by a personalised greeting message at the front desk. We have a big celebration once you say “yes” to the dress. You’ll receive one of our exclusive goody bags too. The dress takes six months to come instore from order. Don’t worry if you don’t have this time, as we can rush cut a dress or buy off-the-peg. We have a ‘meet your dress’ appointment when your gown arrives. From here we then book you in with our inhouse seamstress for any alterations. We also offer a dress-up service for our brides on their wedding day if required. We can’t wait to welcome you and your entourage here in our boutique soon.
