Testimonials
Each trip to Sassi Holford was like a dream; I feel so lucky to work with Sassi herself, designing my dress along with my Mum, we have created such special memories I will cherish forever. My dress was everything I could have wished for and more: the intricate detail, the design, the structure and most of all the exquisite lace that all went into making it such a special dress, which I will treasure forever. I opted for something traditional and felt so special during my ceremony. I had the versatility of removing the Victoria Skirt which revealed the Saffron dress in all its beautiful glory, instantly transforming my daytime look into an evening look. I felt like the luckiest girl in the world and only wish I could wear it again soon.

For any bride looking for their dream dress, I could not recommend Sassi Holford enough. I never imagined that stepping into the Somerset Store would result in me finding the wedding dress of my dreams; Kristine made me feel so comfortable and at ease when trying on gowns and I always looked forward to every appointment. The dress was beyond beautiful and made me feel amazing. I was after something so specific and personal, and you brought that vision to life.
