Blue & Sixpence Bridal

Information For Blue & Sixpence Bridal

Award winning, 5 star rated boutique with professional, kind, friendly staff and amazing wedding gowns at fantastic prices.

Blue & Sixpence was born out of our own experience - we wanted fabulous service, choice, style, fit and price- and just couldn't find it.

On average, a gown takes 9000 litres of water to make, consumes vast amounts of raw materials and resources before being shipped halfway around the world. We knew we could do better!

All of our gowns are brand new designer samples, meaning you save at least 50% compared to buying made-to-order. We also help recent Brides to sell their gowns, too!

If you want "gowns that don't cost the earth", then Blue & Sixpence is the place to be!

We don't believe that your bridal shopping experience should be dictated by only being able to shop in certain stores.

We stock sizes 8-32 so that every Bride, whatever her shape, size, style or budget can have a wonderful, friendly, relaxed and private Bridal experience.

Ali is also a lady with a fuller figure, so she knows EXACTLY what it's like and how to make you feel completely at your ease!

Enjoy your fully-immersive Bridal Experience in comfort in our fully Air Conditioned boutique.

Trying on dresses should be unhurried, fun and relaxed.

Relax with a cuppa, slip on some spa slippers and get ready to be a Bride-chilla!

My own wedding journey was a real eye-opener!

I discovered that as a bigger girl, there were very few places where I could actually try on gowns in my size. Was I going to part with nearly £2000 for a gown I couldn't even try on? No way!

Then I thought about the resources it takes to make a quality wedding gown. The water, fabric, power and global shipping, all for a gown which would only be worn for 12 hours or so.

That's when the idea for Blue & Sixpence struck!

Yes, you can buy a pre-loved gown online, but you can't try it on before you buy it, and you can't return it.

I wanted an affordable, sustainable gown in my size.
I also wanted the high-end boutique experience that Brides with more money than me enjoyed.

You shouldn't have to "settle" for a gown, or compromise on your principles, either.

I believe that making an environmental choice to buy a sample or pre-loved gown should be celebrated rather than being ignored.

With over 30 years' experience in weddings, events, retail and customer service, and personal experience as a plus-size Bride, I will ensure that your experience at Blue & Sixpence is fun, friendly and personal.
I will listen to your dreams and desires and help you turn them into a stunning reality.
