Lavender & Jude, Bridal Studio, Southwold, Suffolk

Congratulations, you’re engaged! and now it’s time to find your wedding dress.

Me and my little slice of bridal heaven are situated in the gorgeous coastal town of Southwold. Perfectly placed for finding your wedding dress in Suffolk. I’ve had the absolute honour of dressing Brides-to-Be for over 20 years, helping brides of all ages, sizes and stages in their lives. Hand on my heart this is the best job ever! I am open by appointment as there is only one of me and one changing area, so when you book you literally have the entire studio to yourself. I have too many years of experience of dressing people, I am a trained lingerie fitter so I can even help with your underwear solutions. My aim is to help you find the dress that makes you feel incredible in a calm relaxed environment with you feeling heard and seen.

Finding the perfect wedding dress can often feel overwhelming and stressful, thats why appointments at Lavender & Jude are 2 hours long, starting with a cup of tea or a coffee and a chat so I can get to know you a little better and learn about your wedding day. I am dedicated to guiding you through every step of the process with patience and care. Together, we’ll spend quality time getting to know each other, discussing all of your wonderful plans, and curating a selection of dresses tailored specifically just for you and your vision.

This journey is not merely about finding your wedding dress; it's truly about celebrating a momentous and joyous time in your life. To further enhance this delightful experience, I’m thrilled to share that “The One” may be celebrated at the exquisite Swan Hotel in Southwold. They have generously extended an invitation for the bride and her entourage to enjoy a complimentary glass of fizz, allowing you all to raise a toast to your special day. Sip, Sip, Hooray!

At Lavender & Jude, I am wholeheartedly committed to ensuring you feel absolutely amazing in your gown, while providing a wonderful bridal experience that complements your unique vision.

Excited to meet you
