“We had a great experience shopping for my Mum’s Mother of the Bride outfit in February this year for my wedding this September. Fatma was so helpful and welcoming, especially as we made an appointment very last minute to come to the shop. She had a great eye and actually picked out the outfit and matching hat that my Mum ended up choosing (a Veni Infantino dress)! 

The whole experience was an enjoyable one; my Mum didn’t feel rushed, and was able to try on a lot of options before settling on her outfit. We can’t thank Fatma enough for her patience and lovely service, we highly recommend her shop if you’re looking for a Mother of the Bride outfit. My Mum will be coming back again when my younger brother decides to get married!” – Rebecca, October 2025

Thank you Fatma for your patience and wonderful suggestion for my MOB dress. Fatma took time to find out what colour the bridesmaids would be and then picked out a dress she said would beautifully compliment them. My daughter and I then picked some further dresses but yes, the one I ended up with was the one she suggested from the beginning. We felt very welcomed and not pressurised in anyway and were allowed to take our time deciding. Thank you again, I cant wait to wear my wonderful dress and matching hat!

As a Mother of the Bride, I cannot recommend Sofi Designs Bridal highly enough. From the moment we arrived, Fatma made us feel so welcome and completely at ease. Her customer service is outstanding, and her knowledge and experience are second to none. The variety and volume of choice is incredible, with leading Mother of the Bride designers and so many beautiful styles and colours to choose from. Fatma took one look at me and immediately knew that fitted dresses would suit me best – her eye for what works is amazing. She also selected several hat options for me and had shoes available to try with the dresses, which really helped bring everything together. At no point did I feel rushed or pressured. Fatma was kind, gracious, patient and genuinely invested in helping me find the perfect outfit. The whole experience felt special, enjoyable and stress-free. I ended up buying 2 dresses one for the day and one for the evening and a hat, all beautiful and I am so happy! My daughter and I left feeling so happy! Finding a Mother of the Bride outfit can feel daunting, but Fatma made it an absolute pleasure. I left feeling confident, excited and looking forward to the wedding day. Thank you, Fatima, for your exceptional service and for making the experience so memorable. If you are looking for a Mother of the Bride outfit, this is the place to go.

We traveled 30 miles to visit the shop and I must say it’s the best mileage I’ve put on the car. The shop has a massive collection of top quality mother of the bride dresses. The owner Fatma is so helpful, experienced, honest and just a lovely lady. She put my wife at ease the second we walked in. I do not hesitate in recommending this shop, and we will definitely shop there again for occasion dresses. If I could give it a 10 star rating I would.

Absolutely amazing experience with the most wonderful Fatima. I was very nervous and you made the experience something I will always remember. Strongly recommend visiting here for your wedding dress.

I am based in New Zealand and found Sofi Designs while looking for a MOG dress. They have a wonderful selection of beautiful dresses and were so helpful in answering my questions and organizing shipping. I 100 % recommend them to anyone looking for a special occasion dress. Nothing was too much trouble. Fatma will be only too happy to help you. Thank you Sofi Designs you made my shopping experience from afar effortless.
