Carina B Couture - Bridal Shop Bath

I visited Carina B Couture after going to three other dress shops and feeling a bit lost with what I wanted out of my wedding dress. Im so grateful that I made the decision to visit this boutique and would encourage all brides to make the trip to visit Carina and her lovely colleagues. I had spoken with Mia before my appointment to discuss some difficulties I was having in attending the appointment and the team were incredibly accommodating. I was helped by Carina, Sam and Mia and they were such a lovely bunch. I was unfortunately 30 minutes late for my appointment due to traffic and I was very flustered when I arrived but the team were so lovely and made me feel at ease straight away. I went by myself to the appointment as my bridesmaids or mum couldnt make it but I felt really comfortable being there on my own. The appointment started with Carina sitting down with me and asking lots of questions about me, my past experiences with bridal shops and what I wanted. As someone who is very indecisive, I found Carinas approach perfect - she made the effort to get to know me and what I was like as a person, which ultimately led to us finding the perfect wedding gown. This was something that didnt happen at any of the other bridal shops and I think this contributed to why I felt so uncertain about what I wanted. Carina and I managed to understand the type of style I really wanted and she picked out dresses to match this after some discussion around the first two dresses, she picked out another one for me to try and I knew it was the one I wanted. I was so happy and relieved to have found something that I feel is perfect for me. When I decided that this was the dress, Carina was brilliant at discussing the plans for fittings and how we could adapt the way the dress could be tailored to fit my body in the most flattering way. Carina is obviously extremely experienced and passionate about what she does, and I felt in very safe hands. Sam helped me with trying on the dresses, and she was really lovely and made me feel very comfortable. Sam was still on maternity leave but came in to help that day and I was really grateful that she was there. She helped take some lovely videos that I could share with my mum since she couldnt be there. I had such a wonderful experience at Carina B Couture and am so thankful I made the decision to travel there. Carina and her team are at the top of their class and every bride should have this boutique as number 1 on their list to visit. Thanks again Carina, Sam and Mia! I cant wait to come back for my fittings!

What an extraordinary experience buying my wedding dress here! Id had my eye on a particular dress by Suzanne Neville and with a huge amount of luck this went into Carinas sample sale as lockdown lifted in 2021, with Carina somehow squeezing in an appointment last minute for me. The appointment felt so special, with Carina asking careful questions to get a sense of my style and vision of the wedding day itself, and what an opportunity to try on such a beautiful selection of dresses! The dress was safely stored with them until my first fitting with Brooke. The fittings process was incredible and I was made to feel so welcome at each appointment. Brooke went above and beyond to make the dress perfect and added some beautiful sentimental touches. The team were on hand to answer any questions I had (I had no idea about things like shapewear, veils, how to bustle a dress etc!) A phenomenally kind, talented, friendly, and experienced team selling exceptional quality dresses. I cant recommend here highly enough.

I would recommend Carina Baverstock Couture to any bride searching for their dress. I was so pleased with my experience with them, from their advice to Louises fitting. They were all so lovely and helpful, I really loved my visits to the store. I just wish that I could do it all again.

Fantastic service at Carina. Chose Orwell by Suzanne Neville. Fantastic seamstress Alison made dress perfect after losing lots of weight and very body conscious. Thank you so much. The dress was perfect!

The whole team at Carina B Couture are the kindest! As a very indecisive person who doesn't enjoy shopping, it was amazing to meet and have my first appointment with Carina who is so experienced & honest. She managed to envisage, select & help create my perfect dress! Sam was also wonderful & ensured the dress fitted like a glove - especially as I wasnt the simplest of clients being based in Canada and planning a wedding in Mallorca. I really appreciated their flexibility to fit me in when I was around. Thank you all so much - I couldn't recommend them more!
