Elena Ferrara Bridal Boutique (was previously Andrea Bambridge) york

I recently picked up my beautiful wedding dress from the lovely Elena and I can honestly say that she made my experience of selecting a dress a wonderful one. Going wedding dress shopping was a daunting thought during the height of Covid – masks, social distancing and many other restrictions. Elena completely made me feel at ease, she is wholesome, welcoming and just generally lovely - she made this experience so special for me. Her selection of beautiful dresses is vast and there really is something for everyone. I wholeheartedly recommend Elena and the team, you will be really well looked after and thank you for making my experience so memorable x

If you are looking for a wedding dress I highly recommend that you book an appointment at Elena Ferrara Bridal Boutique as you will not be disappointed. It was my first appointment (out of four in total) and the experience was flawless and a lot of fun from start to finish. Elena has a beautiful selection of dresses and is so friendly and helpful. She really cares about her customers/brides to be! The appointments are well organised, not rushed and a very relaxing experience. Elena is a very talented designer and a perfectionist, she makes sure that the dress is altered/tweaked so that to it fits you perfectly and also listens to what you want. I had no idea of the type of wedding dress that I wanted, but Elena provided valuable input (if, like me, you need it) and suggested other dresses for me to try on, which helped me pick the perfect wedding dress, shoes and accessories. I can't recommend Elena Ferrara enough, its a 10/10. Try it and I'll guarantee that you'll leave with your dream wedding dress!

I would recommend Elena's beautiful bridal boutique to any bride. Wedding planning been such a long stressful process for any Covid bride but throughout Elena was there for me if I needed help or just a cry! Dress shopping for your wedding goes beyond just picking a dress; having someone to support you along the way and be so understanding is such an important thing. She goes above and beyond and has been just incredible! Elena, thank you and your amazing team, from the day dot I was guided towards a perfect dress for my budget and wedding and I chose a bespoke Elena Ferrara dress which was adapted and changed for my personality. Highly, highly recommend! I CANNOT wait to wear my gorgeous dress!

I had such a fantastic experience choosing my wedding dress at Elena Ferrara Bridal Boutique. To begin with, the general price range of the dresses was made clear on the website - this meant that I could go to my first appointment in confidence, knowing that whatever I tried on would be within my budget. Whilst I had an idea of the designer I liked, there was a great selection of different styles/designers to try, which was really helpful. Elena assisted me with choosing the perfect dress, which was a custom combination of a couple of different styles. She was able to advise which styles might be suitable for the day that we had planned, and was very knowledgeable about the different styles and materials. I now have my dress (completed with alterations) and I am absolutely overjoyed with it, and I cannot wait to wear it. I will be going back to Elena's boutique after the wedding day as I have every confidence that she will be able to help me transform the wedding dress into more of a formal style that I can wear again in the future. I would highly recommend the boutique, both for the quality of dresses and the fantastic service that you receive as a customer.

From start to finish my experience with Elena was wonderful. I was a bit nervous about finding my dress but she made me feel so relaxed and really read my signals to support me to find the perfect dress. Elena is so skilled at her craft - her dresses and those she stocks and just stunning. Of course having a 2020 wedding became much more stressful than I ever envisaged but Elena was such a supportive and reassuring presence throughout. I honestly can't recommend her highly enough!
