I can not recommend pearls & Whirls bridal enough. From we arrived Sheena went out of her way to make the experience special. She listened to what I wanted and gave me advice on styles i would never have thought to try. Sheena helped me in and out of the dresses carefully and made me feel the most amazing I’ve ever felt with her kindness. I’m so glad i said yes to a dress at Pearls & Whirls.

I whole heartedly recommend Pearls & Whirls Bridal Boutique for future brides! I had the most amazing experience this week and said yes to my dress! Sheena is fantastic at what she does - the whole experience was very relaxed (starting off with some tea and biscuits)! I had so much fun, my appointment ran over by an hour and I didn't realise, it went by so quick. There was no pressure from Sheena, just knowledge, advice and support. I am very happy I picked my dress at Pearls & Whirls!
