“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 Juliette gown from Gown & Altar and I’ve honestly never felt so good in a dress.
Lucy and the entire team were incredible — so welcoming, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in making sure the dress was fitted to me in the best way possible. I left the studio feeling confident, comfortable, and completely taken care of.
The sleeve details were absolutely beautiful and were complimented so much by our guests on the day.
I couldn’t recommend Gown & Altar enough. Such a beautiful experience from start to finish”
“I am lost for words, my dress was stunning!! You and the girls have done an amazing job and helped my vision come to life. Thank you so much for taking the time to make my dress, I had so many compliments on how stunning it was and the quality. “
