Perfect Bridal Rooms
Perfect Bridal offer a wide range of designers, from Milla Nova to Pronovias and also stock bridesmaid and mother of the bride outfits. The range is wide, almost too wide, so we would suggest going here with a real vision in mind. They also have an outlet. Their website used to hold much more information, but they have changed how they handle matters. Our biggest critique, no champagne is offered!
​
Prices in outlet start around £999 and go up in excess of £3,000 in the regular store.
