Love Letters from OG Brides

Carolyn was willing to put the time in to help me find a shape that suited me

This was the second bridal shop I tried, and I went into it still having no idea what would suit me. Carolyn was willing to put the time in to help me find a shape that suited me and then pulled dresses in that shape that I probably wouldn’t have considered but ultimately led me to find THE ONE! She has been more than accommodating considering how indecisive I am (I had tried the dress on 3 times before confirming) and I already feel I can trust her with the alteration process too.

– Melissa Bond

They have a gorgeous range of dresses in multiple sizes.

I purchased my dress from the lovely ladies at Olivia George Bridal. Sadly, I only tried on 3 dresses before I found THE ONE. If you are getting married and looking to purchase your dress, I would definitely book an appointment here. Also need to highlight the aftercare & alterations as I had my alterations done in house and they smashed it. Thank you all so much for my dress, I love it.

– Amy Huges

Carolyn and Nicky went above and beyond to ensure I felt comfortable and confident.

Olivia George Bridal were absolutely fabulous, from my first appointment to my last! It gave me a whole new outlook on my body, and I felt fabulous on my wedding day thanks to them! My dress was perfect – highly recommend booking an appointment here if you’re a fuller figured lady… or even if you’re not!
