Welcome to the CURVY BRIDAL REVOLUTION, bestie 💥✌️
Planning your wedding is supposed to be all champagne, Pinterest boards and happy tears... but lets be real - it's also a TONNE of stress. And if you're a plus size bride? Let's just say the traditional bridal industry has a long way to go 👀
From tiny sample sizes to weirdly apologetic shop assistants and dresses that scream "at least we have something for you", it's enough to make any bride want to scream.
But guess what?
You've just found your people 🙌

Here are all the things you can officially STOP worrying about now that you've found The Silver Sixpence:
"Will they even have my size?!"
💬 Short answer: YEP!
Long answer: Hell yep! With over 150 styles in sizes 16-40, our rails are stacked with options and our samples are actually in sizes you can try on. No squeezing, no "I'll just hold this here and you can imagine" - just you in some killer gowns.
Being body-shamed or judged
🚫 That's a hard nope from us.
Your body isn't up for debate here. We are a small team of body-positive curvy bridal rebels who created this boutique to be a place where women like us can be celebrated, not managed. Our favourite hobby? Helping you feel like that bride 🤘 Get to know Wendy & Ellie better here!

Dresses that look like sad, boring sacks
⚡ Structure and sexiness is our jam!
We handpick every dress in our collection to bring the drama, the detail, the shape - all while being perfectly designed to work WITH your curves, not against them.

Feeling rushed or ignored in your appointment
