WED2B Leicestershire (Hinckley)

I went here for a bridesmaid dress, we were warmly invited in and was shown straight to the dresses and given a selection in my size. They were helpful with sizing even though the 10 was too big and the 8 was the right size then were explaining to go safe and go my normal size so they can be adjusted to be made to you rather than going to small and not having much to be able to do with the dress. I think you have to go elsewhere for a seamstress but they may have options or recommendations to do it there I'm not too sure. They had a variety of brides dresses, bridesmaids dresses, flower girl dresses, robes, belts, a few accessories. An appointment is not needed. Three changing rooms. Toilets. Drinks aren't provided but I think you can ask or pop into Sainsbury's for a drink to take in. Have to check. Wheelchair and pushchair accessible. Plenty of Parking in Hinckley and in Sainsbury's - charges apply unless ask for a car park and spend money in the crescent area.

I went to wed2b with my maid of honour as my first wedding dress experience. I was feeling quite apprehensive due to being a bigger girl but decided to give it a go anyway, we went into the store and the lady who greeted us seemed nice enough and signed me in, my friend went off looking at the rails, once signed in she snapped at my friend to join us back on the sofas and explained how it worked, we understood but it seemed silly not to be able to browse the styles! She picked out some dresses for me, one she put back before I'd tried it as she said it would be too tight on me, she continued to be quite snappy with us like I was inconveniencing her day. I'm not sure if this is because I was a bigger bride or because it seemed like perhaps I wasn't ready to buy my dress or both! The lady helping me try on the dresses was absolutely lovely and really accommodating. The dresses themselves didn't seem suitable for a bigger bust, massively padded and made me feel really packed in and it felt like everything for bigger sizes was strapless which I didn't want. I tried on a handful of dresses and they said they had nothing else for me. I totally appreciate it can't be helped what stock is available at the time but all in all it left me feeling quite disheartened and disappointed. I am sure not everyone has this experience and feels this way of course but unfortunately this is how I left the store feeling.

This was the first store I visited looking for dresses that do and dont suit me and was recommended by a friend for having great customer service. They were all very friendly HOWEVER, while other women were trying on dress after dress after dress, I got to try on only one of the dresses I liked on the hanger and then two more the lady chose for me. All of them just made me look frumpy and I know that isnt their fault but I felt rushed and hurried to leave when a dress I had a photo of they had nothing like. She didnt want me trying on any other styles to try and change my mind or to see if anything did suit me. Maybe its because Im not getting married for a few years and was just browsing not buying like other women maybe not but I dont like that I came out still not knowing what suited me. Was abit of a waste of time in all honesty.

Yesterday I found my dream dress. Katie was my stylist and after originally going in there looking for my mum for her wedding day, I was convinced into having a look for myself and Im so glad I did. Thank you to all the stylists who supported and looked after both me and my mum while we were there. I cannot wait to wear my dress on my big day!
