There’s no tradition more loved than the process of picking your wedding dress. From dazzling gowns that sweep the floor to elegant pantsuits, your wedding dress defines your special day one sequin at a time.

And why shouldn’t it? There’s endless work that goes into creating the wearable masterpieces that are wedding dresses, from designing to tailoring, with stylists and sewists working every last stitch of passion they have into creating utter perfection for your big day. With so many options beyond the usual elegance of white wedding dresses, designers across the globe have only grown more talented and more creative when it comes to wedding outfits.

Finding the right wedding dress will always be a welcome challenge, whether you’re looking to have something made from scratch or altered off the rack. In Auckland, there are so many wedding dress designers, stylists and boutiques that carry every facet of wedding fashion imaginable, so we’ve put together a list of the very best.
