Established in 2017, Stephanie Frances Bridal opened their first shop in the south coast town of Southbourne, Dorset. Over the 5 years they were in Southbourne, the business went from strength to strength. Stephanie Frances Bridal became known for their wide range of dress styles, sample sizing and vast knowledge of design and alterations.

December 2021 Stephanie moved out of the Southbourne shop, and relocated to our new boutique at 5A South Street, Wareham which opened in February 2022.
