A wedding dress shop in Chester has been named among the Top 50 bridal boutiques in the UK, according to one of the leading hen party providers in their annual rundown.

Brides of Chester, located in Northgate Street, was picked by GoHen.com as one of only four in the North West to make the list, compiled based on a variety of factors including style, variety, value for money, service on offer, and much more.

The listing says of Brides of Chester: 'Offering a wide range of hand-picked and affordable bridal gowns from award-winning designers, Brides of Chester is bound to surpass even the most ambitious bride’s expectations. From beach to boho, elegant to statement, these guys offer the full range and then some.'

Brides of Chester is a family-owned bridal boutique which has been serving brides from Chester and the local area for over 20 years.

The venue is spread over two floors offering wedding dresses, fitting areas and plus size gowns, with an experienced and dedicated team of consultants and seamstresses.

GoHen’s creative director, Jon Stainer, said: “Each year it gets more and more difficult to narrow down our Top 50 as there are so many incredible bridal boutiques in the UK.

“However, I think we’ve got a great range this year, from budget-friendly options to high-end alternatives, so there should be something for every bride.

“Whilst hen parties are our main focus, we like to help our brides from the moment of their engagement through to the big day itself and our Top 50 wedding blogs are always well received.”

GoHen is one of the UK’s biggest hen party planners, having sent over 600,000 people off on their pre-wedding weekends since 2002.
