  Bought my wedding dress here and I absolutely love it! The whole experience was outstanding; nothing was too much trouble for Hannah, I felt no pressure and was given lots of useful advice. She was lovely, enthusiastic, welcoming and knowledgeable. The shop was beautifully decorated and clean, all of the dresses were immaculate, well looked after and presented! I felt the experience was personal and special, exactly what I was after. I'm not surprised that every Google review for the shop and Hannah are 5*.... I'd give 10* if I could. Thank you, thank you, thank you! Lavinia xxxx

  I was a little anxious about finding a dress...the ladies were so supportive, friendly and patient with several visits! I found the 1 and now I can't wait to wear my dress in October 🙏

  Amazing! The women who work here are so few and far between, as someone with severe body dismorphia , they were so encouraging and kind. The whole thing was smooth and calm and they weren't pushy at all. There was no other shop I would have bought my dress from. Hannah and the team are AMAZING! If you're in Surrey, Sussex, Hampshire (or even further to be fair) you must must visit! The dresses are exquisite and hand picked to fit every bridal fantasy! You guys rock!

  Hannah and the Bride by Aster team immediately put me at ease and made the whole experience relaxing, fun and most importantly, enjoyable. The first wedding dress I tried was ‘the one’ and it was chosen by Hannah who listened to everything I had said I liked, and thought would suit me and my sense of style. That said, I still went on to try many other dresses and many other styles (as you never know!). There was no pressure to buy there and then, and Hannah actually encouraged me to take my time. Every appointment thereafter did not touch this first experience at Bride by Aster and no dress measured up to that first dress. I cannot recommend Bride by Aster enough. Thank you for making this experience so special!

  I ended up speaking to Hannah at our wedding venue (Gildings Barns) open day and her relaxing, kind and friendly personality shone through from the start! After booking an appointment in with Hannah, I took my mum a few weeks later to try on wedding dresses for the first time. Hannah and her team have a lovely little shop in Dorking that feels very personal and cosy. There were a beautiful selection of dresses, just the right amount to ensure enough choice but not too many that the experience became overwhelming. Hannah and her team were very knowledgable, listened to and looked at how I felt in each dress and I could sense them getting a feeling for the style that suited my shape, and that I liked. I felt so relaxed through the whole experience and felt no pressure at all. I had seen a dress that I loved on their website and chosen it to try it on when I went in, but I hadn't openly said to Hannah. It just so happened that after getting a sense for the style I liked, Hannah had also picked out that dress for me. Once I tried it on everything just felt right and I knew I’d found my dress! I don’t get married until Oct 23 so cannot wait to collect my dress and see it again! Thank you to Hannah and your wonderful team for making this experience so enjoyable xx

  Where to start! Firstly, I was so pleased I didn't have to pay a fee for my appointment. It takes the pressure off and being someone who doesn't have £50 to spare (some other boutiques charge this), it meant I didn't miss out on trying on some of the most BEAUTIFUL dresses at Bride by Aster. Unfortunately, I had to cancel my first booking as a family member was unwell. Hannah was so understanding and rescheduled my appointment with no problem. As soon as I walked into the beautiful BBA boutique, I was taken a back by how stunning the dresses where. I had been to 2 other shops prior to my BBA appointment and I honestly hadn't seen anything as beautiful as what I saw in BBA. I tried on about 10 dresses in my 2 hour appointment and I'm so pleased to say that I FOUND MY DRESS! Hannah was so kind as she let me come in the next day to try it on again and make sure I was 100% sure. I felt so comfortable and enjoyed every minute of my 2 appointments. I can't wait to wear my dress! If I could give 10 stars, I would! Beth xx

  Unlike some brides, I had no idea what sort of dress I would want for my wedding (I don't normally wear dresses), and with only 7 months between engagement and the big day, I was not only feeling the pressure, but a bit overwhelmed and out of my depth. Hannah made all my worries and stresses fade away as soon as I set foot into her store. She let me take my time, she listened to what I said (and also didn't say!), and importantly, also kept in mind my budget. That same day I walked away with the dress that beforehand, I never knew I would need for my big day, but after trying it on, I knew it was the one! The sparkle was just perfect for our Winter-themed wedding and I felt beautiful in it! I had so many compliments on how unique it was. If you want to find a store that has a range of designs, including your not so typical wedding dress, and has a wealth of knowledge and experience (not to mention a relaxed and supportive body positive environment) - then reach out to Hannah and the Bride by Aster team! ❤❤❤

  I had an amazing experience at Bride by Aster, following a less successful experience at another store. Hannah was so helpful, she picked out dresses for me to try based on my comments until we eventually found my dress. I felt at ease throughout my appointment and did not once feel pressured into making a decision. I will 100% be recommending the store to anyone I know getting married in the future and I cannot wait to get married in my wonderful dress! Thanks so much for making my dress buying experience so great.

  Loved the dresses at this bridal shop completely different to what I had seen elsewhere. Lots of options for alternative dresses and I completely fell in love with a couple. Very welcomed and big fuss as it was my birthday which was so kind and unexpected! I loved everything in the shop and ultimately had a great time.

  Brides by aster was the first bridal shop I visited last year in search for my wedding dress. I had seen the dress I wanted to try on, online and it just so happened that Hannah was going to suggest the exact dress too! Hannah was so welcoming and made my morning so enjoyable from the slippers to the sweets and Prosecco!! I decided to buy my dress from here because I absolutely loved my dress and knew straight away that it was the one…… but also because I felt so welcome and special during my appointment. Hannah and her team are amazing!! Thank you so much Jess 08.10.22
