“After I made my decision it all sunk in and the excitement began to bubble up. You guys are amazing”
“Absolutely in love with my wedding dress, was made to fit me and was like a glove. Such a great experience would highly recommend!”
“After trying on quite a few dresses and spending hours scrolling Pinterest for inspo, I came across the Gown + Altar’s Riviera Gown and instantly fell in love. I was even more excited when I realised it was a New Zealand brand. Being based in Wellington, I used Gown + Altar’s try-on-at-home service, which was absolutely amazing — the next thing I knew, the dress arrived at my house and I was able to try it on in the comfort of my own home.
From there, the process continued to be incredibly smooth. I met with Isabel via video call to have my measurements taken, then travelled to Tauranga for my final fitting in September. Only a few weeks later, my dress was ready — beautifully made and finished to perfection.
On the day, I felt so beautiful and received endless compliments on the dress. I completed the look with the Flora veil, which was the perfect addition and tied everything together so beautifully.
The entire experience was genuinely so special. I am so grateful to Gown + Altar for creating my dream dress and making the whole journey such a joy. 💕”
“I purchased the Grace gown (NZ size 10) from Gown and Altar, and it was everything I could have dreamed of! The gown was hemmed slightly at the train for better movement, and it struck the perfect balance for my wedding in Sicily – it was easy to wear, elegant, and beautiful. It’s the kind of dress that feels effortless yet elegant, ideal for an abroad wedding or a simple, chic wedding anywhere in the world!
The craftswomanship, fit, and service were amazing. If you want a gown that makes you feel confident, comfortable, and stunning on your wedding day, I couldn’t recommend Gown and Altar more highly!”

“From start to finish, working with Gown + Alter was a dream. Lucy, Jane and Isabel went above and beyond to make sure my dress was absolutely perfect — working miracles on a very tight timeline. Every interaction was warm, reassuring, and professional. The attention to detail was outstanding, from a flawless fit to the beautifully precise alterations. The communication throughout was fantastic, with regular updates that kept us completely at ease during what can be a stressful time. Will always be grateful for the skill, care, and genuine kindness from the Gown + Alter team. Truly 11/10 experience.”
