Located in The Old Siam Shopping Plaza in the historic Bangkok neighborhood, Wang Burapha, Alta Bridal is a bridal boutique specializing in Thai traditional wedding dresses. 

While it’s certainly known for paying homage to the beautiful chut thai — and doing it elegantly — it still has a wide array of styles, including more modern silhouettes, making it the perfect choice for brides who want to see plenty of options.

Its sewing team has been doing this for a long time, and you can tell in the tailoring and construction of the gowns. 

Often, when you look at gowns up close, you can see the little flaws and mistakes in the embroidery. And even if the flaws don’t seem visible at first, you can see how they affect the overall structure of the gown once they’re worn. 

The gowns at Alta Bridal are expertly constructed, and you can tell the sewers know how to employ the right sewing method for every style.

The staff members, made up of designers and sewers, are all friendly, polite, and enthusiastic about every client that enters the door. They’re very game to answer your questions and seem very eager to keep a good atmosphere during the consultation and fitting.

One of the best things about the boutique is that its prices are on the mid to lower tier without sacrificing elegance and quality. Clients have plenty of opportunities to add more elegant touches without worrying about how much the gown will cost. 

The shop also has a rental option, so that’s a wonderful alternative for brides who don’t feel the need to keep their wedding gowns.

One area of improvement, however, is that some of its designs and styles may appear outdated and cheap. Clients have to be careful about choosing their design to ensure that their vision will come to reality. 

So if you want to visit this boutique, be ready with your inspirations and make sure to ask for fabrics and materials that look higher-end. Their atelier is also not the biggest, and because the walls are made of glass, it doesn’t offer plenty of privacy.

Overall, with her excellent execution of local materials on elegant collections, passion and experience in the industry, and creative outlook on fashion, we recommend individuals interested to check her collections out.

Aunchalee Boutique is owned by two sisters and is a joint venture with a French fashion house. The French inspiration is certainly visible in the boutique’s selection of gowns since many of its styles use materials like tulle, silk, and crystals as the stars. 

While it has thousands upon thousands of gowns available off the rack, it doesn’t offer much in the way of variety since it doesn’t have Thai traditional wedding gowns. Clients may be able to ask its tailors to custom design one, however. 

Overall, the boutique is ideal for brides who love well-tailored pieces and timeless silhouettes. Brides who are looking for elegant options will surely find one that suits their taste.

The staff is experienced, friendly, and multi-lingual, which makes the boutique perfect for international brides looking for a team of designers who can get a full grasp of their vision. They also have a knack for understanding the female form and what makes a gown flattering. 

Another con is the boutique’s pricing. Its custom wedding gowns start from THB 50,000, which might already be beyond the budget of couples who are planning on having a simpler, more understated wedding.

It also doesn’t accept walk-in consultations, so clients have to set an appointment first before they can speak with a designer.

Ananya Wedding Dress is another boutique that’s ideal for international brides because it has a selection of gowns in traditional Thai, Chinese, and other styles. Even its standard white wedding gowns also have a diverse range of themes and designs. 

It also has gowns for brides who want to go for a simpler or more minimal look.

The boutique shines in its embroidery. It can embroider intricate colored flowers into the gown — perfect for brides who want to stand out and are tired of the standard plain white wedding dress.

The designers and staff members are very attentive to clients. They spend their time listening to the bride’s vision and providing tips and solutions to their concerns. 

They also prioritize making the brides feel confident in their gowns. 

This shop’s pricing is very reasonable and we like that it doesn’t ask clients to spend more than is necessary.

Surprisingly, its dresses are also comfortable to wear. Even if they’re well-tailored, brides don’t have to sacrifice their comfort on the big day.

One major drawback is that Ananya is not as size inclusive as other contemporary boutiques. Plus-size brides might be hard-pressed to find sample dresses for their size, but they can work closely with the designers to find a design and custom tailoring that’s flattering to them.

Savilerow Wedding Boutique has a large selection of dresses. One look at its website and clients can instantly get a glimpse into the array of wedding gowns it carries.

Its website is also incredibly helpful because it has information on how it takes clients’ measurements — ideal for brides who don’t have a background in tailoring and proper measuring. 

It gives clients an idea about the kind of work that the sewers put in. Brides who don’t feel confident about their figures can prepare themselves for how their measurements will be taken on the day.

The boutique only accepts clients who set appointments beforehand, so brides who want to visit are strongly advised to call first and schedule their visit.

The designer and staff communicate well with clients, but their work is not always foolproof and their track record is inconsistent. Some dresses can come off cheaply made, especially if the sewers are not given ample time to work on the gown. 

The good news, however, is that the team is willing to negotiate with clients to get a refund if the latter is not happy with the result. Prices start at THB 10,115, which is ideal for brides who have a meager budget for their gowns.

Style Statement caters to trendy brides who want to appear more youthful and up-to-the-minute on their big day. 

While it has a broad range of styles for any kind of bride, the majority of its dresses skew a bit younger for those who want to employ current styles seen in younger generations like Gen Z and millennials.

It also has dresses for bridesmaids and other formal dresses, so even those who are looking for a gown to wear as a wedding guest can also find plenty of options here.

Because it allows clients to buy or rent off the rack, its dresses tend to look a bit repetitive. They also don’t often feel custom, but they’ll do for brides who don’t need an offbeat or overly personalized gown for their big day. 

This is one drawback — it doesn’t offer gowns that you can’t find in a department store.

But it’s also this retail quality that allows it to have high-quality craftsmanship across the board. Clients can expect a level of consistency in its tailoring and embroidery, no matter the kind of dress they pull off the rack.

Dresses here can go for as low as THB 900, so brides on a budget will certainly find a dress in this store.

Peter Choo Bridal gives brides a chance to be unique and outstanding on their wedding day.

We like that they extensive experience in working with international clients and tourists who visit Thailand. This ensures that they can effectively cater to the unique needs of brides from diverse backgrounds.

They create tailor-made bridal dresses that are specifically designed for each individual bride, but they also have the bridal collection that was designed by Peter Choo during each season.

We’re in awe of how they contribute to updating fashion trends and present inspiration for new bridal dresses.

We love how their team is also highly experienced in fashion, art and beauty, so they provide expert advice for bride-to-be’s.

We think that their bridal gowns deserve to be placed in galleries because they’re art.

Each gown is exquisitely crafted and any bride who wears their dresses will definitely make such a memorable day even more memorable.

We highly recommend!
