The first time Stacey walked through our barn door, we could tell she wasn’t in a great place. We started off with a good chat about her experience so far and what she wanted from her dress. As we talked, the mood lightened and her lovely smile started to shine through. Her smile definitely broadened when she tried on her beautiful Ellis Bridals dress which turned out to be the one she said ‘I Do’ in!
I just wanted to say another massive thank you to you and Dalia for helping me with my dress for my special day. I felt absolutely amazing in it, and had lots of compliments too.
Stacey’s advice for future brides-to-be:
Don’t expect your dress to be one of the first few dresses you try on in the first shop. This may happen but it’s not like all the TV programmes where you instantly fall in love with one of the first few you see. This is what I struggled with and it really ruined my initial experience because it just wasn’t as easy as everyone made it out to be. I tried on 17 dresses in total before I agreed on my perfect dress. I had some ideas in mind but nothing compares to actually trying them on and deciding what looks best when it is on. I went with my mum and sister and they picked out dresses too, it helped make it a fun experience and not just a focus on getting the dress sorted.

Some more kind words from Stacey on her Sass & Grace experience:
I can not recommended Sass and Grace enough. Sam is just amazing. She made me feel happy and relaxed straightaway as I arrived in a negative mood due to an overwhelming experience at another boutique. She immediately understood what I wanted and we soon found my favourite dress. Sam also gave me a guide price for each adjustment I would need. When we finished my mum, sister and I all had some prosecco to make the experience even better. The dresses are all incredible too, in a variety of styles and prices. My budget was at the lower end and I still found lots of beautiful dresses to try on.
