About us
Welcome to Bridal Reloved, where sustainability meets elegance
At Bridal Reloved, we believe every bride deserves to feel beautiful and confident on their wedding day without compromising on style, quality or sustainability. We are one of the UK’s largest bridal franchise networks and the world’s only franchise of pre-owned wedding dress boutiques. We sell high end ex sample and pre-owned wedding dresses throughout our award winning, friendly and welcoming boutiques.
Our mission is to make luxury bridalwear accessible, offering beautiful gowns at a fraction of their original price while giving these dresses a chance for a new love story.
Our Vision: Sustainability with Heart
At Bridal Reloved we recognise and acknowledge the damaging overproduction in the bridal industry. We’re passionate about redefining the wedding dress journey with sustainability at its heart. By embracing pre-loved and ex-sample dresses, we aim to slow down the fast-paced production of wedding dresses and reduce the environmental impact of the bridal industry.
Each of our boutiques are independently run, united by a shared commitment to sustainability. By joining our franchise, our boutique owners pledge to source wedding dresses exclusively from companies or individuals that have dresses already in production, breathing new life into these beautiful designs and keeping them in circulation and out of landfill.
By choosing Bridal Reloved, you’re not just saying yes to the dress; you’re saying yes to a more mindful and sustainable world.
We recognise that there’s always more work to do. While we’ve made great strides with our dresses, we’re committed to improving the sustainability of our accessories and bridesmaids’ dresses, continuing to research eco-friendly options for the future. It’s our mission to share our findings and knowledge, address the problems and lead change.
The Bridal Reloved Experience
Our boutiques are designed to be intimate and welcoming, where every bride receives personalised attention. Our knowledgeable boutique owners and bridal consultants understand that your wedding dress is more than a garment; it’s a reflection of your personality. That’s why each appointment is tailored to create a relaxed, fun and memorable experience.
We also stock veils and accessories and some of our boutiques stock bridesmaids dresses and the Terra Bridal range.
Why Ex-Sample or Pre-Owned?
Choosing an ex sample or pre-owned dress doesn’t mean compromising on quality or style. We stock a curated collection of designer wedding dresses, all chosen for their quality, beauty and potential to shine on a bride’s special day. Our commitment to sustainability ensures that you can wear a dress that’s as kind to the planet as it is stunning.
We currently have dresses by Jenny Packham, Suzanne Neville, Maggie Sottero, Sassi Holford, Enzoani, Justin Alexander and Claire Pettibone to name just a few.
You can check out what dresses we currently have in our boutiques here.

A Note from our Founder…
I started Bridal Reloved in 2013 because she recognised that there was a gap in the market for quality sample and pre-owned wedding dresses at affordable prices.
Simply put, there are too many wedding dresses in circulation and these once worn, luxury items are the fastest fashion items we can buy. The production of new dresses year after year is having a huge impact on our environment.
We believe that we do not just ‘sell’ customers dresses in a Bridal Reloved boutique, we create an experience through our range of dresses and our customer service that helps customers make an eco conscious purchase for their wedding. From the styling advice that we give through to the coffee and biscuits that are always offered. Everything we do is about making the time spent in Bridal Reloved special for the bride to be.
