Our November Bridal Appointments will be held between 9am – 5pm on Friday 7th and Saturday 8th November 2025. 

Each appointment will be 1 hour and 45 minutes long. The time slots available to book on both days are:

• 9am
• 11am
• 1pm
• 3pm

Our bridal appointments cost £10.00 to book (plus a non-refundable £1.00 booking fee).

This allows us to cover the costs of maintaining and cleaning our selection of bridal dresses and organising these bridal events, to ensure that St Michael’s Hospice is not making a loss if no purchases are made. However, if you buy a dress during your appointment, the £10.00 will be taken off the final cost of your dress.

Each booking is for 1 bride plus two guests of their choice.

While we would love to be able to welcome more guests, the space is only able to comfortably fit one bride and two others at a time.

Please note that if more guests attend, we will not be able to accommodate them in the Bridal Boutique but they are welcome to browse the shop and spend time in our café while they wait.

This experience will provide brides with a one-to-one consultation with our Whitestone Bridal Team. They will help each bride choose a variety of of gowns to try on and provide advice around fitting and accessories.

Our bridal range of around 100 dresses includes sizes from UK 8 to UK 22, however some sizes may have more options available depending on current stock availability and donations. Dresses are priced between £50 – £300. We ask that you please let us know the sizing range that you would like to try (e.g. size 10-14) when you book to help our teams ensure we can prepare for your appointment efficiently, but you are welcome to browse all our available dresses during your appointment.

Our brides and their guests will be offered non-alcoholic fizz and mince pies to enjoy during the appointment and will be able to enjoy a 20% discount in our café during the day of their visit.

Please note we do not offer any alterations service and cannot reserve dresses. If you find a dress that you love, we recommend purchasing it after your appointment.
