  • Our Jamaican, October 2017 wedding. When I walked into your lovely place you made me feel so at ease. Then, when I  first looked at the dress you chose for me, I thought 'no that isn’t for me but I will try it on'. You just knew! It fitted like a dream and I felt amazing, it was like I walked in that day without planning it and the dress was meant to be! It’s amazing how a dress I didn’t have in my head to wear was THE ONE! You are brilliant at what you do so thank you! Mrs Dennaford     .

  • Prior to moving to Canada I had 4 months until our wedding in Ireland. It was so wonderful to have someone so understanding about the need for a dress in such a short time as the dress shops I had tried in Colchester were very snooty about the timeframe. Also they did not have the variety of styles that you offered. It was great to have the place to ourselves and to have the freedom of so much time with your expertise. I knew when I put my dress on that it was mine and was so happy with the decision and the price and the fact that it was an ethical dress especially with the money going back to charity! I never could have afforded such an amazing dress anywhere else. Again, thank you so much for your help. I have and will recommend you to everyone that I still know that lives in Colchester and London. Best wishes, Sara Kavanagh (McGealy). Sara

  • Dear Ruth, I am delighted to learn that you have sold my dress and veil so quickly and someone else can enjoy their special day in such a special dress. It is really nice of you to let me know that MacMillan have benefitted from these proceeds and I didn't expect you to re-imburse me for cleaning costs, which is also really appreciated. I hope you continue to keep up all your good work, you are an angel. Best Wishes, Claire

I am delighted also that in selling the dress we were able to donate to a great cause. Many thanks for your efforts in selling my dress and for getting such a good result so quickly.

  • A very big thank-you for helping me to find such a perfect wedding dress. I received so many compliments on the day and, more importantly, I felt a really great combination of a million dollars, but also super comfy and confident. I was just able to relax and enjoy the day, without fretting about how my dress looked. The corsagette in particular was a great hit and the perfect way to complete my outfit.
    I've told everyone about Bridal Re-dress - both about what a lovely experience it was coming and finding a dress, and also just what a great model you've created to benefit a whole host of good causes. When planning a wedding you're very conscious about the sheer amount of stuff needed for just one day. So it's nice that at least the dress wasn't adding to that mound of single-use stuff!    Katy

  • claire cardyI was amazed and delighted by the quality, variety and volume of dresses available in Bridal Re-Dress. Ruth has created a very comfortable outlet in fabulous surroundings. Her studio is very spacious and Ruth is very welcoming and helpful. I tried on so many dreses I was spoilt for choice and she helped me find the perfect dress (which turned out to be brand new), veil and tiara at an amazing price. What I also admire is that Ruth runs her service with any proceeds she makes going to charity. I cannot recommend Ruth enough. If you're looking for a Wedding dress, your first appointment must be with Bridal Re-dress. Claire Barley, Chelmsford
