    I have purchased my dress from bigbeautifulbrides in Weston Super Mare, and I can only say that the service there was fantastic.

    They have loads of dresses to try on while you are there, and most of them are size 28/30 so they fit everyone. They also fit most budgets, so will do something for everyone.

    I would seriously reccomend you have a visit there, especially as you are so close.

    They also close the shop for you if you book an appointment so you have loads of help and privacy.

  • I live in the north west literally inbetween Lancashire and Merseyside and have found a great wedding dress shop specialising in plus size dresses.
    I was really struggling to find shops with dresses to try on that were close to my dress size. For all fabulous curvy, plus size real women living in this area I would advise you check out this shop:

    Always and Forever Bridal Boutique

    www.alwaysandforeverbridalboutique.com

    132, Greenfield Road, Dentons Green, St.Helens, Merseyside WA10 6SH
    01744 610222

    plus the fact the girls make you feel fabulous and not like you are lucky to find a couple of dresses that they might be able to squeeze you into. I am size 26-28!!

    I got my dress from Big Beautiful Brides in Weston and can't reccomend them highly enough. :D
  • Another one for your list could be Box 2: http://www.box2.co.uk/. They have less overtly "wedding" dresses in their weddings section, but still lots of lovely items, which are also great for wedding guests. I think they have a branch in Thornbury, so not too far from you, and they also do roadshows at various hotels around the country. My mum got her outfits for my wedding there, and she looked absolutely stunning.
