Last week I had the pleasure of seeing a much needed Plus Size Bridal Boutique open in Sheffield and not far from my home. I was excited to go along on opening day and see what it had to offer the Plus/Fat Bride.

It is located in a lovely little area with a a pond and off the main road with parking and disabled access. It is a hidden treasure for any Curvy Bride. The decor is beautiful and welcoming as are the staff. I met owner and visionary Jane. Having been a Plus Bride Jane knew first hand how plus people are treated by straight sized Bridal Boutiques and what was needed for a positive Bridal experience.

The shop has a great range of Plus Size dresses in store. I saw from 16 - 32 just from having a quick look around. Trying a dress that is close to your size is so important to seeing how you will look in the final dress. It is very hard to do that when the dress is 8 or more sizes too small.

I can't recommend this shop enough. If you are in or near Sheffield it really should be first on your list of places to visit when looking for a dress. These is lots of room to take along friends and family for a try on session. Give the shop a call and make an appointment and let Jane make you feel like the Bride you always wanted to be.








The entry to the courtyard is directly across from the Post Office and you can drive in and park. The shop is to the right of the pond.

This post is another Budget Bridal post in the run up to my wedding next Summer. I wanted to share with you what is available to the large and short lady with a range of styles for under £200!


It has been a while since I have done a Budget Bridal post but this one is rather fun! This Lady V London dress has been made in this print in quite a few colours now but this is my favourite. When I first saw it I knew it would make a pretty and fun Wedding dress or any occasion dress. This is the Isabella style and the best shape for my body that I have tried from Lady V. It has lots of room for the bust and as it flares out has lots of room for hips and bum too. This print is not available now but keep an eye out for more colour combinations as you never know! There are always new prints to choose from.

Lulu Guinness has a lipstick bag that is around £300 and I am never going to spend that much on a novelty bag or any bag! I took to ebay my first stop for designer copies and found this beauty for under £17! I know total bargain for such an iconic bag that goes perfectly with this dress.
