GOLDIE’S BRIDAL 2 Railway Street, Pocklington, York, YO42 2QZ 01759 528 030 | https://goldiesbridal.co.uk It’s always been a dream of owner Jodie’s to own a bridal store and with the help of her husband, opened in 2019 with just three designers. “I’ve always been fascinated by everything bridal, from the design and manufacturing process to falling in love with the journey a bride takes to find her dress,” she says. “With Goldie’s, not only can I provide an intimate and unforgettable experience, I can also show my customers gowns that will fit their vision of their perfect wedding dress.” Jodie has partnered with some of the world’s leading female-led, diversity-focused and stylish brands. The Boutique carries seven lines at the moment with each collection holding a stunning variety of dresses to show its customers. “My previous career was firstly a professional show jumper, before working on super yachts, so quite different to what I do now,” Jodie continues. “It’s been a dream come true watching the business grow year on year; we’re so grateful for each and every bride who walks through our door. I can’t wait to see what 2025 holds!” What’s your favourite gown in store at the moment? At the moment has to be Udelia by Enzoani, although it’s extremely hard to narrow down to just one! It’s an utterly jaw-dropping fitted dress with an overskirt option, made from Mikado it has asymmetrical draping and 3D florals. It’s a piece of art and looks a million dollars on each person we have it on. I have a pear-shaped figure. What style of dress do you recommend to show my shape off? For a pear-shaped figure, we’d love to see you in a fitted dress! Perhaps a mermaid style to balance out your top and bottom half but definitely showcasing those beautiful curves. A-lines are very popular at the moment with pear-shaped figures, they can really flatter and enhance a small waistline.
