About Us

Who We Are

We began in 2008 as a home-based Bridal Alterations business offering our services to local bridal shops in Sutton Coldfield, Birmingham, Lichfield and other areas (Sutton Alterations) then grew into a well-known bridal store in 2013 till 2021 (Sutton Bridal Studio by Sona). During this time we managed to give a brilliant 5-star service to hundreds of brides and their bridesmaids and flower girls, we dressed up hundreds of beautiful prom girls, while our first holy communion business had grown so much, in 2022 we made the big decision to focus only on children occasion wear.

Today we are the biggest First Holy Communion Centre one-stop store in Midlands with around 300 dresses in stock, collaborate with 15 well-known UK-based designers who supply our dresses, accessories, shoes, and so on (Dordanna girls boutique).

In Sutton Bridal Studio we still give a personal professional alterations service to our beautiful brides, their mom or mother of grooms, bridesmaids dresses, prom dresses, and occasion wear alterations service ( Fit My Dress ).

To use our usually fully booked alterations service,  make sure to contact us as soon as you know about your event plan. Visiting our Google profile and Facebook pages is recommended. You will find our valuable customer reviews that help you to know Sutton Bridal Studio better and leave your precious dress in our hands confidently.

OUR TESTIMONIALS

Lovley shop and staff and the choice of communion dresses was amazing. The girls were brilliant and helpful and we walked away with the most beautiful dress for my daughter for her communion. 110% would recommend this shop for anything xxx

-Samantha Louise McCombie

I would firstly like to say what fantastic staff. I went 2 weeks ago to look at prom dresses for my daughter. We were really unsure what style and colours to go for. The staff were so helpful and advised us what dresses to try and the second dress my daughter tried on we bought, she looked amazing. I went back today to look at holy communion dresses for my younger daughter. There were so many different styles to choose from and again the staff was so helpful. We bought a beautiful dress and accessories which were reasonably priced.

-Sarah Campbell

Great customer service. Managed to book an appointment last minute. Huge range of communion dresses and accessories to choose from.

-Rachel McCarthy

I cannot recommend this shop from enough! the moment I walked in I felt special; just what a bride wants to feel. It helped that I also fell in love with a gorgeous Modeca dress! Throughout the whole process, Sona was friendly, professional and I knew I could trust her judgement completely. I was always informed of the process of my order, making the whole experience relaxed. I was so touched by Sona’s gift of a handmade garter; it was so pretty and personal, I will treasure it. Even after my wedding, I did not hesitate to take my dress to be cleaned and boxed by Sona. I knew I would not get better service anywhere else. Thank you so much. I miss you already!

-Rebecca Lucas

What a brilliant shop and Sona is so helpful and very professional. My wedding dress was absolutely stunning had so many compliments. I also had my daughters flower girl dresses from here and Sona custom made them for me with a claret sash. I would highly recommend this Bridal shop its beautiful!!

Sona was truly fabulous from start to finish! We were shopping for a First Holy Communion dress for my daughter which could easily have been a difficult process as my daughter was not interested in trying on so many dresses but Sona immediately engaged with her making it so much easier for us. Sona had a wonderful selection of Communion dresses and we valued her expert opinions as to what my daughter suited best in terms of style, etc. After a few hours, we left the shop only because we had another appointment in another shop. However, it turned out to be a huge waste of time. The other shop did not stock as many beautiful dresses and lacked the warmth and expertise that we had just experienced with Sona. We hurried straight back to Sona and finally purchased the dream dress and accessories. Thank you so much Sona for being so patient with my daughter and guiding us towards choosing the perfect dress. You showed nothing but kindness and professionalism throughout and we very much appreciated everything you did. We look forward to receiving the dress after you carry out the minor alterations. We would 100% recommend anyone looking for a wedding/formal/Communion dress that you visit Sona at 'Sutton Bridal Studio' - you certainly won't be disappointed!!!

Sona was brilliant from start to finish. The alterations on my dress were perfect and she addressed all my concerns along the way. Would highly recommend!

-Zoe Bond

You will get an absolutely wonderful service at Sutton Bridal Studio everytime you visit - Sona is such a talented lady! Always so welcoming and friendly. From start to finish the service and experience is second to none. There was so much variety when choosing my wedding dress at the shop which in itself was a lovely experience looking through the rails of gorgeous dresses. Sona made many alterations to ensure that the dress I picked fitted perfectly and made me a stunning lace jacket from scratch which looked as though it was part of the dress, it matched so well - so I had a day and a night look!! It was the dress of my dreams and I really can't thank Sona enough!! Received so many compliments on how well it fitted me and how gorgeous it was. Sona also altered my bridesmaid dresses and the girls were so happy with how well they fitted and how comfortable and confident they felt. Even when they are busy nothing is too much effort for them at Sutton Bridal and they manage to make time for everyone ensuring that every single person recieves an impeccable and personal service. I would trust Sona with any alteration as I know she will do an incredible job. Thank you to Sona and everyone at Sutton Bridal! Freya Brown xx

Took my daughter to choose her communion dress, they were helpful and honest with their opinions. They have a big selection of communion dresses, and couldn't help but notice the beautiful bridal, prom and evening dresses as well. we found a beautiful dress for my daughter's day.

I went to Sutton Bridal to find my dream wedding dress and I cannot recommend Sona enough. She is extremely welcoming and lovely and instantly puts you at ease. Her attention to detail is amazing and from beginning to end she works so hard to make sure she creates the perfect dress and look for you. I would defiantly use Sona for all my alterations in the future too.

-Charlotte Bennett

Sona was so friendly and made the experience so lovely. I bought my wedding dress from somewhere else off the peg and Sona altered and cleaned it to make it perfect. She also altered all of the bridesmaid’s dresses and made them perfect. Would highly recommend. Thank you.

-Penny Sheward

I was recommended to Sutton bridal studios by 2 friends who had good experiences and I’m so grateful to them. I brought my wedding dress and took it to Sona to complete some alterations. Her lovely friendly nature together with knowledge, skill and professionalism made for a very pleasant experience. I was nervous to give someone the job of altering such a special dress. Sona made me fall in love with my dress it fitted perfect and she was able to get it perfect even with the bridal weight loss!! I wish I’d have gone to Sona to buy my dress she has a good selection, together with bridesmaid, prom dresses and some beautiful accessories. Thank you, Sona, for being a part of the lead up to my big day.

- Claire Anderson

Sona always makes you welcome and nothing is too much trouble, she has done a number of alterations for me and I have always been satisfied with the work that she has carried out. I also bought my granddaughters flower girl dress for my daughter’s wedding, it was beautiful. Sona not only sells brides dresses but has some beautiful prom dresses/evening dresses. I would recommend Sutton Bridal Studio for wedding dresses, prom dresses and accessories.

-Sandra Anderson

Sona is a lovely and wondering lady, who helped picked a beautiful Holy Communion dress for my wee girl. It was a pleasure doing business with Sona. I would go back again, thank you Sona, love from N.Ireland.

-Julie Darragh

Went to Sutton Bridal Studio without an appointment and they were so welcoming. They have a lovely range of dresses and Sona is very knowledgeable with a great sense of style so she was able to advise. She adjusts the dresses herself and does a lot of work for other bridal shops, so she's in the know. A lovely experience and highly recommended.

-Lucy Jones

Thank you for your support, I had a panic and you came to my rescue. My dress was beautiful on the day and that was due to your expertise in wedding dress alterations. I wish you all the luck in the world with you business venture, your are so good at ensuring brides to be look lovely on their big day. And thank you for helping with all the accessories, the range you have in your shop from shoes to head pieces to veils put the finishing touches to my big day.

-Cathy

I am now on my fourth dress handmade, from scratch, by Sona at Sutton Bridal. I was searching for a seamstress to make a dress I had seen a picture of for a Christmas party. Sona worked simply off that picture and exceeded all of my expectations, adding her own flourishes to make the dress unique and spectacular, and for an amazing price. Now, as soon as she finishes one dress, I ask for another because I simply cannot get enough of her wonderful skills and products. Sona makes the whole experience magical; she is kind, attentive and has a talent unrivalled by anyone I have seen or used. Not only would I not now buy a dress without speaking to Sona but I can't wait to work on my wedding dress with her. Don't go anywhere else!
