Who is True Bride?

Launched back in 2005, True Bride started as a collaboration between Nicki Flynn and her Team True – a gang of wedding obsessed Brighton girls who knew they had something different to offer. And they were right! With a talent for anticipating the latest trends, the True Bride team have developed seven unique collections with everything from 50s style tea-length bridal’s to red-carpet worthy bridesmaids and everything else in-between. Their design work is integral to the brand and it has become a major part of their success story. Their contemporary and very wearable bridesmaids styles have brides and their maids across the world falling in love.

Suffice to say, we’re big fans! And our past clients have been to! So without further ado, here are some bridesmaids from True Bride you’re going to love!

The answer is? NABBD! We have a brand-new website (yay!), and to celebrate we thought we’d share just why we are the No.1 destination for bridesmaids dresses in London.

At NABBD we have a simple philosophy that drives us every day, offer beautiful bridesmaids dresses in London, sourced from top designers around the world, in a range of sizes, styles & colours to suit everyone. It’s this mission that has helped us become the No.1 destination for bridesmaid shopping in the capital.

I should probably introduce myself! I’m Polly, and I am the owner of NABBD (Not Another Boring Bridesmaid Dress…) based in the very pretty Wimbledon Park. We are a boutique bridesmaids shop in London specialising in dresses that are a little different from your average gown. They’re stylish, they flatter and your bridesmaids will actually want to wear them! In fact, we offer the type of dresses that your girls will keep as wardrobe staples for years to come, their go-to big event gowns. For us, a happy bridesmaid is a happy bride, because nobody wants to look back at their wedding photos and think, ‘she looks miserable in that dress’ or ‘that style just wasn’t right for her…’. No! Your bridesmaids are the most important people in your life (bar Mum and Dad obv) and they deserve a dress on your big day that they love.

What was the Inspiration for NABBD

Nabbd was born out of the biggest day of my life, so I personally understand just how important your wedding day is, and what it means to get everything just perfect!

There’s no doubt that getting married is one of the most exciting times of your life, however it can also one of the most stressful… When I got engaged back in 2011, I was determined to find bridesmaids dresses in London that:

I could afford within my budget
I hadn’t seen at the last dozen weddings I’d been to
That weren’t available in high street shops (imagine a guest turning up in the same dress as your bridesmaids?!)

Also, as a busy, working woman with bridesmaids spread all over the country, I didn’t want to spend my weekends trawling the country trying to find the perfect bridesmaid dress for them.

It was with these philosophies in mind that Nabbd was born!

As I’m sure you’re aware, your girls no longer have to wear the same bridesmaids dress on your big day! Shock, horror – but it’s true! You can mix and match styles and keep the same colour, you can mix and match colours and keep the same style or you can mix and match everything! This means you can find a bridesmaids dress in London that suits each best girl perfectly. To do this at a high-street store would be a nightmare, because their dresses are not designed to compliment one another. But at NABBD, we have top designers from around the world that design their collections specifically to be played around with.

We are official London stockists of Jenny Yoo for example, and they have a huge selection of modern colours in every style they design, which makes it so easy to put a colour palette together for your girls. We’re also the official London stockists of Amsale, and their styles work so well together as a collection, you could just pick a colour or fabric and let your bridesmaids do choose the rest! It’s simple. Alongside these two amazing designers we have so many other brands that you just won’t find anywhere else. From Watters and Adrianna Papell to Hayley Paige and Bramley Rodgers – there’s literally something for everyone, in a price range that works for you.

Nabbd makes shopping for your bridesmaid dresses in London easy. We promise on your bridesmaids appointment you’ll find:

Designer bridesmaids dresses to match your budget
A range of on-trend colours to suit your bridal party
Something for everyone (because bridesmaids come in all shapes and sizes!)

So stop reading this and head over to our book an appointment page and select your preferred slot online. It’s easy! They only difficult part is deciding where to go for your celebratory post-bridesmaids shopping drinks!

We look forward to seeing you very soon and if you have any questions please don’t hesitate to get in touch via our contact page.
