Absolutely thrilled by my experience at Alta Costura with Jessica assisting us. She entirely got the vibe and vision of what I wanted to try on, even when I couldn’t articulate it very well myself! She was also incredibly informative about all the customisation options with each designer and what similar dresses she could recommend based on what I liked. The whole team were so welcoming to my family and we never once felt rushed or under pressure. Felt like I tried on an unbelievable number of dresses across a range of styles (one of the reasons I chose your shop). So excited for my dress to arrive!

From the first second to the last, the staff have made me feel so welcome and at ease. Each time I left with a spring in my step because of the kind words and positive energy given off by every member of the team. Daphne made me feel so beautiful and confident in my dress, I love it so much. Thank you for all that you do.

Alta has the most amazing selection of dresses, it's so easy to get lost in! But the ladies at Alta helped me to find my perfect dress. Every bride to be has a moment of doubt but I was reassured my dress was the one and I will look amazing!- with the help of the seamstress Daphne, my dress has been made to perfection. I am so so happy with the customer care I received and I cannot wait to get married in my stunning dress. Thankyou so much to all the staff at Alta for putting up with my ever changing mind! ❤️

Everything has been perfect from start to finish.
As a curvy bride I was very Apprehensive on trying on dresses ! But I was made to feel at ease and the choices of dresses available to me were unreal.
I was made to feel like an absolute queen.
The shop embraces body positivity which I didn’t experience in any other bridal shop before.
The whole experience had been perfect :) x

Such a calm and fun experience with Lucy. I didn’t really have an idea of what I wanted but Lucy was patient with me and also encouraged me to try on different styles I probably wouldn't have gone for! I wasn’t rushed at all, and was able to go back to try on my favourites again without any issue.

I had Sarah for my bridal appointment. To say she was wonderful would be an understatement. Sarah took the time to get to know me, what I had planned for my day and my thoughts on what my wedding dress would look like. Sarah then helped me pick dresses to try and advised me on what she thought would look nice. Although I had been excited for my appointment, I was also nervous but Sarah made me feel so reassured and supported throughout my appointment. I never felt pressured or rushed and received so much help and advice on how I could alter the dresses etc. I cannot thank Sarah enough for a truly lovely bridal appointment experience. The shop itself is also stunning and every member of the team I encountered was so friendly. Thank you Alta Costura team x

Amazing experience, lovely place and people. They 've tried their best to accommodate my needs and spend plenty of time to help with my decision. Jessica was fantastic, kind and pleasant, she took pictures for me and didn't push a sell.
They also offer a rush cut for certain brands, and alterations( add sleeves, add pockets etc) and have reasonable prices compared to the market.
I strongly recommend the shop

What an amazing experience. I was a little nervous being a more ‘mature’ bride and on the plus size but the lady made me feel so at ease and was amazing at selecting dresses for me to try on. I absolutely fell in love with a dress and hope to be able to get funds together. The dress was very reasonably priced but as it didn’t fit it will need alterations which bump the price up a little. I cannot fault this place the selection was great and staff were simply amazing. Thank you

It always feels so magical every time I visit Alta Costura. Today I went for my third appointment which was for alterations, the seamstress was lovely and put my mind at ease. She tried various different options to fully explore what would be perfect for me. I’m still over the moon I picked this shop to find my wedding dress. ‘Perfect’ in terms of service feels like an understatement.

Had such a lovely experience. Tried on a variety of dresses and my stylist pulled a wild card from my reactions. The wild card was the dress I went back and bought after going away to look at photos with my bridal party. The stylist had anticipated I would be back and was already set aside for me which I really appreciated. Such a lovely atmosphere

I had a really lovely experience. It was relaxed, I felt very welcome and the selection of dresses within my price range and size was excellent. I wanted to try on some dresses with colour, I was pleasantly surprised at how vast their selection was. Unfortunately, I did not find "the one" but it gave me a very good idea of what I want and do not want. It's a process after all. I would thoroughly recommend Alta Costura to all brides.

Perfect customer service, I was the most reluctant bride not looking for anything fancy. However my daughter's and the staff at Altra new better and as soon as I tried the dress on I knew it was the right one.
Thank you for everything you were amazing and as an older bride you made me feel so young xx

Came on Saturday 26th April to begin my search for my dream dress. Was welcomed by Joanne. She was so friendly and asked about my big day. She explained how the time would work and explained what each style of dress was before letting me search the rails for dresses I’d like to try. She helped me into each of the dresses and made me feel extremely comfortable. I tried on quite a few dresses and managed to get it down to 2. I explained I was visiting a different shop after to try on more. There was absolutely no pressure and she gave me the details of my top 2 dresses. I visited the next shop but I soon realised that my heart wasn’t in it as I’d indeed found the one. After a spot of lunch I headed back to the shop and Joanne was with another customer so was looked after by Natasha. Again, was a warm welcome and I got the sense that the staff were genuinely excited for me. Natasha took my measurement and explained everything to me. Joanne popped over to congratulate me. I really would recommend this shop to anyone searching for their dress. It made my day and experience so enjoyable. Thank you ladies

Such a lovely team at Alta. From the moment we arrived we were made to feel special. My daughter is wheelchair-bound but she was treated as a bride to be and she loved the occasion. Although we didn’t find “the one”, we would most definitely recommend a visit.

I had bridal consultation with Jade today. She made me feel so welcome and comfortable. I went in feeling nervous and not really sure what I wanted. Jade pulled lots of different dresses for me to try and explained how things can be changed and altered to make me more comfortable. After trying on quite a few dresses we found the perfect one for me. Jade was amazing through the whole experience. I am self conscious of my body after loosing weight, but Jade made me feel so comfortable and special she really was amazing. I can’t wait to come back and collect my beautiful dress!

I was so nervous to start dress shopping but Lauren made me feel completely at ease. She really listened to what I liked (and what I didn’t) and made the search much easier and less stressful than I expected. The shop is beautiful and I felt so comfortable there. If it wasn’t for her I wouldn’t have found my dress so I would recommend ACB to any brides-to-be! Xx
