"I just want to say a huge thank you for helping me with my dress on Saturday. I can't believe I was so worried beforehand but you just took the stress away. I still can't believe I've got the dress I wanted after seeing it on the internet. You are just left to roam and look at your leisure and you can try on as many as you want although I had my eye on one in particular (which is the one I bought). I can and will definately recommend you to any future bride. Thank you for the service both my mum and I received" - Paula McKechnie, March 2010

"My experience at Copplestones couldn't have been better; friendly staff, a great selection of dresses and unbetable prices. It was great to be left to browse at our own leisure and it didn't take me long to find my dream dress. Thank you Copplestones!" - Suzi Cope, March 2010

"I would like to thank you for the wonderful service that was provided, when I found the internet site I was unsure of what to expect. However, I was pleasantly surprised. The shop is bright and well laid out, there is so much to choose from and to be given the opportunity to look without being followed around by someone made the experience very positive. Of course the prices are fantastic and the dresses are beautiful and I would recommend the shop to any future brides and I cannot wait to wear my dress next year, thank you once again" - Libby Ellis, Feburary 2010

"What a bargain £299. I couldnt believe the choice of dresses, help yourself at your own pace with no fuss and no sales assistants following you around. I cant wait to wear it on the 1st September 2010 getting married in Cyprus, Ill be sure to send you a few photos, Thanks again for all your help" - Michelle, Northern Ireland, Febuary 2010.

"An excellent choice with a fantastic range of sizes and styles. I could not believe my dress has only cost me £299 and it's absolutely beautiful. The service was brilliant. My mum and I were left to look at dresses and try loads on and were not mithered by a pushy shop assistant. I will definately recommend Copplestones to my unmarried friends" - Lydia Cunningham, October 2009

"Hi john. I would just like to thank you for the wonderful dress my future daughter in law Danielle bought from you last week, she is absouloutley thrilled with it. Danielle had seen the same dress and tried it on in some of the bridal shops but did'nt think she could afford to pay the price they were asking and then she got the same dress from you at a fraction of the cost. We are telling everyone we know whos getting married to come to you!! We wish you did mother of the bride outfits aswell! Thanks once again" - Gill Taylor, June 2009

I will definitely be recommending your shop to all my bride to be friends. Thanks for helping me save a fortune, I may be able to have a gorgeous budget wedding after all. Thanks again" - Alison Jones, June 2009

"I just wanted to write and send a HUGE thankyou for making 'wedding dress day' so easy and enjoyable. I purchased my dream dress on 11th May and I am still in love with it! A friend recommended you to me and I was a little unsure when I visited the website...too good to be true came to mind. I was wrong :) I am the proud owner of a beautiful white dress by Raylia for £299 and after seeing it on the website, I never imagined I would walk in and find it waiting for me!! The dress will be perfect for my Las Vegas wedding in October this year...Any brides to be should see Copplestones first. - Soon to be Mrs Helen Harling, May 2009

"I would like to thank you again for your very kind welcome, myself and Karen truly enjoyed our time finding my perfect dress…I can’t tell you how much I am looking forward to wearing it on the Big Day!" - Desiree Dreessen, June 2009

"My weddng dress arrived this morning - it is fabulous and fits perfectly!! I would like to thank you and your team for all your help and advice from the very first e-mail to date, you have all been absolutely brilliant, it has been a pleasure dealing with you. If the rest of my wedding goes as well as my transaction with you I will be the happiest bride in the world!! - Lorraine Bubb, May 2009

"If you're like me and find normal bridal shops too overbearing, Copplestones Bridal Basement is definitely for you! You can go in and browse at your leisure and don't have to put up with a store cleark constantly giving you their opinions. John, the owner, is very helpful. He even agreed when I asked if I could take a removable part of one dress and pair it up with another dress! With the Credit Crunch in full swing, you can't afford NOT to at least peruse the hundreds of dresses available!" - Mary Linnell, March 2009

"I went into Copplestones a little apprehensive as I had no idea what kind of dress I wanted and hadn't been into any bridal shops. I went with a bridesmaid and we received a very warm welcome. I tried every style going and eventually found the perfect dress for me at £299. I really enjoyed the laid back atmosphere with absolutely no pushy sales. I'd recommend to anyone! Thank you very much." - Lucy Hull, February 2009

"Thank you very much for an extremely stress free experience! It was just so nice to be able to try on as many wedding dresses as I liked at my own pace with the help of my friends without any sales pressure from staff. After trying on many different styles I found my dream dress. Although with so many styles to choose from it wouldn't be hard to find what you looking for, at affordable prices, unlike my local bridal empoiums in North Wales. Thanks again for my beautiful dress" - Ann Parry, Mynydd Isa (mold) getting married in August 2009

"I can highly recommend Copplestones for a relaxed and pleasurable shopping experience! I found the perfect dress and at a very reasonable price. I would definitely recommend Copplestones as the place to start looking for a wedding dress and it might also be the only place you need to look as there is an extensive choice of dresses all at fantastic prices. There's no hard sell and you can try on as many dresses as you like, so book your appointment today!" - Alison Bowers, January 2009

"I wasnt sure what to expect from my visit to the Copplestones Bridal. I had read the comments and thought I might as well go along and at least see what there is...When you get inside and its like a wedding dress wonderland! There are so many dresses, so many sizes, so many colours and so many styles! My mother in law to be and I set about looking at the dresses... we found a couple I loved. The choice and service was great! There was no rush, no pressure and no sales person pushing you. We had a great experience at the Bridal Basement and I've already recommended Copplestones to another bride to be! My mother in law thought John made a great cup of tea too. Thank you for a great wedding dress buying experience!" - Sam Hopper, January 2009.

"Hello to all future brides considering visiting 'The Bridal Basement'. My name is Cath and I have recently purchased a wedding dress from 'Copplestones'. How did I hear about the place? From a magazine in a hotel in Warrington at my friends wedding. When I read John was selling designer wedding dresses from £99 to £249 I thought it was too good to be true...maybe a spoof...so I checked the website, registered and was invited to go and view the dresses. The Bridal Basement showroom was located just on the edge of the town centre up a side street so I wasnt expecting to find 'the dress' but after trying on about two dozen, I found it!!!! After five months of searching I found it!!! It was bigger than I thought I'd get and prettier than I'd seen in any other bridal shop, a damn sight cheaper too. The money I saved is going towards building my home. So what advice can I give you? Go for it! Just go! You might not find the wedding dress you want but there is every wedding dress under the sun and John is very helpful. Make sure you take a trusted member of your wedding team to help you out and give it a go! I know three people I've told about Copplestones who are getting married next year. Get there before they do!" - Catherine Morrison - September 2008. Getting married 8th May 2009.

"Thank you for my time in the shop. Im so glad ive found my dream wedding dress at a good price.....I can't wait to wear it again!" - Amanda Armitage, Huddersfield, September 2008, Eloping to Cyprus.

"I found my dream dress at Copplestones. The quality and range of wedding dresses is fantastic and you can try on as many as you want. I would totally recommend Copplestones to any bride to be!" - Natalie Jones, September 2008.

"Plenty of choice. I have recommened Copplestones to everyone I know" - Natalia Lara, Northern Ireland, September 2008.

"The price are fantastic, who can complain about dresses from £99 to £249. Hundereds of dresses to choose from, It was like being a child in a sweet shop. No hassle and no pushy sales people! All in all, my mum and I had a fun time.... I found the perfect dress at the first and last place I looked. I cant thank John enough and will be sending in pictures of my snowy wedding" - Lucie Jones, Preston, October 2008. Getting hitched in Lapland December 2008.

"Before visiting your "shop" I was a bit worried, as the wedding day was getting closer, and in the few months I spent looking for a dress, I could not find even one to meet all my expectations. I live in Chester, and there are a few nice shops there, but I didn't like them for 2 reasons: first of all the prices were really high, and even though I agree that the wedding day is special and you need to spend some money on the dress, I feel that £1000 is way too much. Secondly, I like to take my time when choosing a dress, and have my privacy, and in the shops I visited I was very intimidated by the fact that the shop assistant would watch me all the time, even if with the intention of being helpful. Now, the experience I had with Copplestones was completely different. John was were very helpful and nice all along. The choice of dresses in my size was just amazing (probably about 30) and they were all just beautiful. I did try all of them on in my own time, with my 2 friends there with me and that was great fun! The atmosphere was very nice, chatting with other brides-to-be while trying the dresses on. I ended up buying the first one I tried on, and I am very happy with my choice. The most expensive dress in your shop was £249 and the thought that you can actually afford to buy any dress you see there iis very nice. To sum up, I had a great day, ended up buying a very beautiful and initially expensive dress at a price that I am happy to spend for a wedding dress. I would certainly recommend you to my friends and actually I am going to......there are a few getting married next year" - Ana-Maria Avram, Chester, October 2008. Getting married in Romania, November 2008.

"I would like to say a huge THANK YOU for helping my find my perfect dress. The pricess are amazing. My wedding dress is a Raylia Designs and worth between £700 and £900 and I got it for just £249. You can browse through at your own leisure without being pestered by shop assistants like in other bridal shops. The range was huge and there was plenty to choose from in all sizes. I would definitely recommend a friend, I'm so glad I visited Copplestones Bridal Basement." - Rebecca Clayton, Liverpool, October 2008

"Its great going into a shop knowing you can try on every wedding dress without having to check the price tag first. Loads of wedding dresses to choose from, we spent ages going through the rails of dresses. I would definitely recommend to a friend" - Yvonne Baxendale, Liverpool, October 2008

"I thought the prices were brilliant....the labels showing the original retail price made me feel like I was getting a real bargain. I have already recommended the Bridal Basement to my friends in work" - Victora Lewis, October 2008

"Hi John, I just wanted to say thank you for so much for my beautiful dress. There were hundereds of dresses to choose from catering to all different sizes and shapes....It was my idea of heaven. You left my 'mother in law to be' and I in peace to try on as many wedding dresses as I liked without being pressured or pushed by a sales assistant or rushed into making any decisions. We were both in our element surrounded by rails and rails of dresses. I have been put off in other bridal shops by being made to feel like a time waster if I didnt find 'the one' I certainly didnt feel like that in Copplestones. My dress is absolutely fabulous and I am so pleased I visited Copplestones. I got an amazing dress that I would have otherwise not been able to afford. I would definitely recommend Copplestones Bridal Basement to a friend or anyone who is getting married!!!" - Jenni Howard, October 2008, getting hitched in Lockerbie July 2008.

"I thought the prices were amazing. I was worried it would be a bit like a jumble sale but found the experience similar to that of a bridal shop. There were plenty of wedding dresses to choose from and all the dresses were immaculate unlike dresses at a travelling bridal sale. I would definately recommend you to anyone on a budget who is not willing to compromise on style" - Sarah Thompson, October 2008.

"I had a fantastic time on Saturday and will definately be recommending you to other brides to be! The range of wedding dresses is extensive and the freedom to try on as many gowns as I wanted without being pushed to buy. I am on quite a tight budget, the price was fantastic...I am really happy with my dress! I came looking for a big fancy dress and although I tried on many in the style I had initially wanted I opted for a simple, elegant design by Amanda Wyatt. My advice to future visitors...try on as many styles as you can. You never know a dress might be ''the one'' until you've tried it on!" - Kelly Potempa, Chester, November 2008.
