What about your business are you most proud of?
Enabling our brides to look a million dollars without breaking the bank.

Your wedding is about you and the love you have for one another. Decide jointly on what your hopes and aspirations are for the big day and try not to let well-meaning family and friends alter your decisions.

We're rather partial to a four legged friend as a ring-bearer.
Describe your typical process with a couple.
We encourage all our brides to email us at
[email protected] with any queries they may have, that's everything from accessory ideas to questions about the cut and flow of our gowns. Brides can browse our online store at www.kittyanddulcie.com in the comfort of their own home which gives them lots of time to look closely at all the designs. There are lots of gorgeous pictures and films of each dress which will help them get a real feel for how the gown moves. It is imperative that a bride measures herself carefully following our easy instructions and compares herself to our size guide. If the size she wants is in stock she will then be guided to our payment platform. We aim to send items in stock within 5 working days of order. We're sure she'll love her choice but if the bride feels the gown is not quite 'the one' she has 10 working days to return the gown via Special Mail Delivery or Parcel Force for a full refund. Each wedding dress is sent with a satin padded hanger and pink, breathable, zip-up garment cover.
What do you love most about your job?
We adore seeing wedding day pictures of our brides and reading about their happy experiences with Kitty & Dulcie. We then share these beautiful images via our dedicated 'Brides' page on the website.
What is your favourite style of wedding dress?
We're especially fond of the 50's era and love a gown with a full-circle skirt with lots of petticoats that's cinched in at the waist. Perfect for dancing the night away and showing off a pair of eye-catching shoes.
What is the best way to incorporate "Something Blue" into the wedding outfit?
Shelley is an avid football supporter and suggests, "Pinning a Chelsea badge to the bouquet." Not sure this will appeal to many brides but we adore the idea of getting a professioanl seamstress to secretly sew a monogram and wedding date inside the wedding dress with baby blue cotton. Obviously this is hidden for all to see but makes a wonderful, lasting memory and sentimental gift to pass down to generations.
What is your favourite wedding dress of all time?
To many to pin-point just one but we agree that Audrey Hepburn looked a dream in her dress.
