VBB Gravesend
Enjoy a personal bridal experience, tailored entirely to you
We’re based inside The Wedding Showroom in Gravesend, home to a collection of independent wedding businesses and suppliers.
So while you’re with us finding your dress, you’ll also have the opportunity to discover businesses who can help with other parts of your wedding — from suits, jewellery and wedding styling to cakes, hair and makeup, photography, entertainment, stationery and celebrant services.
There’s no expectation that you use anyone simply because they’re based here. It’s simply a lovely place to explore what’s available and meet people who could help bring your wedding day together.
Your dress is one part of the day. The Wedding Showroom can help you discover the rest.
Once you’ve found your wedding dress, there are still plenty of other outfits to think about. From your wedding dress to the people standing beside you, we’re here to help you create a look that feels like you.
Beautiful, wearable styles with a range of options to help create a look that works for your whole bridal party.
Elegant occasionwear for the woman who wants to feel every bit as special as she looks.
Beautiful little dresses and finishing touches for the youngest members of your bridal party.
Veils, shoes, hair accessories and those finishing details that bring your whole look together.
Our standard appointment is for 90 minutes, giving you plenty of time to try on dresses and find your dream dress.
Choosing your dress is a special moment, and we want you to enjoy sharing it with your favourite people. We recommend bringing along a few of your closest friends or family members, creating a relaxed and enjoyable experience where you can focus on finding the dress that feels like you. We don’t have a strict guest limit, but please be mindful of keeping your party to a comfortable size.
We recommend booking your appointment 2-3 weeks in advance of when you’d like to visit. However if you are super organised – Our diary is open for this year into early next year.
Our bridal appointments are intended for brides who are ready to begin the dress journey and are prepared to make a purchase decision. We promise to make your experience unforgettable when you’re ready. We suggest that you begin your dress search 12-18 months before the wedding. Please note that the designers’ standard delivery times are 6-9 months and we start your fittings process 3 months prior to your wedding date. If you would prefer to allow more time to spread payments out, you can start earlier.
We carry a variety of sample sizes, typically ranging from 8-28 with a selection of gowns that are available to order up to a 36. Your stylist will help you envision how your dress will fit once the correct size has been ordered and then altered to you.
Our wedding dresses typically range from £899-£2299 with the majority between £1000-£1800. If you have an ideal spend you’d like to adhere to, please let your stylist know so that they can guide you to the best options.
Congratulations! We will take your measurements and discuss sizing before placing your dress order. We run through all of our terms and conditions with you and discuss the timelines for alterations and further appointments. To place your order we require 50% of the cost of your chosen dress. The balance is due upon its arrival in store (typically 6-9 months later).
Whether you know exactly what you want or haven’t got the faintest idea, we’d love to meet you.
Come as you are. Bring your questions, your ideas, your family, your bridesmaids — or simply bring yourself.
We’ll take it from there.
