"When I began looking at different wedding dresses online, Indie Bride was one of the first places I came across and I had my heart set on getting my dress from there straight away. The dresses are all absolutely stunning with a beautiful boho, vintage feel and I knew they were all handmade and ethically produced. When I went to try on some of the dresses I was blown away by the studio and I had an amazing time, I honestly could have happily worn at least three of the dresses. Miina was very helpful and make the whole process seamless. I would 100% recommend getting a dress from Indie Bride."

“I loved Indie Bride London from the moment I found out about them! The biggest pull for me was that you use ethical and sustainable materials. Miina was able to deliver a personalised and holistic approach to my wedding dress. I live in Canada, and she was able to make it to order for me and work with my international timelines, as well as comprehensively give me all the information I needed. The studio itself is incredibly beautiful and cosy and the experience was very special.

The experience was personalised, judgement-free and comforting. I am not a traditional or particularly feminine bride, and didn't want a dress that made me feel inauthentic. Miina is able to make gowns to order, and my worries evaporated when I found the comfortable, ethereal and laid-back Pixie dress. It was the first dress I tried on, and I knew immediately I wanted to wear it on my wedding day.

Thank you for everything!”

"I can't say enough about how brilliant Miina at Indiebride London was. Every moment, from looking for my dress, all the way through to my fittings and then finally the wedding day itself where I got to wear my beautiful, handmade dress was absolutely perfect. These are dresses that you'll be comfortable in all day. There’s a range of different styles, but all have a unique and special quality that makes them feel truly one-of-a-kind. Every dress is constructed with such care and thoughtfulness, and made sustainably to order, from sustainable fabrics. I truly believe there’s something at Indiebride for everyone, and if you purchase a dress from Miina, you can guarantee you’ll feel comfortable and like yourself on your wedding day. Any bride who finds Miina is a lucky bride – I’m so thankful to be among them."

"I stumbled across Indie Bride when I was looking for alternative wedding dresses after failing to find what I was looking for in local bride stores. To say I was impressed by the beautiful dresses on site was an understatement, and I immediately reached out to secure an appointment.

Miina was incredibly welcoming when I arrived at her lovely shop and put me at ease. I tried on several stunning dresses and quickly found My Dress! This was then made to the best size according to my measurements, ready for alterations as required, a service that Miina also provides.

I cannot thank Miina enough for not only the dress of my absolute wildest dreams, but also for making the whole experience for me - a socially awkward individual who hates shopping - a wonderful one! THANKYOU!❤️"

"I could NOT be happier that I went with one of Miina's stunning dresses. I visited a few bridal boutiques and none of them matched the feeling of cosy magic that everyone felt in Miina's studio. The dress I went with felt light and a total pleasure to wear, which also showed in the utterly otherworldly way it moved with my body. In fact, the fabrics of all of the dresses I tried were just so obviously of superior quality and elevated each cut. The pictures don't even do them justice. Miina herself was so helpful and patient (I'm very indecisive)."

"I came across Indie Bride after a thorough Instagram search. I had visited three shops in Shropshire, tried on far too many dresses before making the decision to book in for an appointment. I travelled three hours to London and as soon as I entered Miina’s studio I knew I was going to find my dress. The studio is tucked away in the attic of a beautiful church next door to the most incredible vegan coffee shop (still dreaming of their Cinnamon buns). The studio looked exactly like my dream house - fairy lights, incense, boho! I had an idea of what I liked but really wanted a dress unlike anybody else’s. I fell in love with the Jolene dress. A dress with bell sleeves & a train made from the softest bamboo fabric. Miina is such a talented artist and put in so much thought & time to make sure my dress was perfect. The bra strap poppers, poppers to hold sleeves and a bustle on the hips were a god send on my rainy day! My dress is truly one of a kind and so comfortable!! I received so many compliments. Miina also kindly collaborated with a Shropshire local business to supply the lace for my matching veil. I felt like Stevie Nicks and spent my day singing Gold Dust Woman in my head. Thank you so so much for making my dreams come true! You are incredible xx"

"I came across Miina's unique dresses whilst looking for designers that rated highly on sustainability. It was important to me to have a timeless dress that wouldn't harm the planet, and a dress I could love not just on my wedding day but for years to come. Once I found Indiebride, I didn't have to look anywhere else! I felt I had found a kindred spirit in Miina right away. Her dresses are modern classics, with a streak of alternative boho.

Whilst I was initially keen to try on sample dresses, I fell in love with the mulberry silk Poppy dress. When I put it on and gave it a twirl, it was instantly the only one for me! With it's A line shape and long flowing skirt, it is as comfortable as it is effortlessly elegant.

Miina took the time to make sure every little detail was perfect, she takes incredible care over her work and her brides! Picking my dress up at her beautiful London studio was one of the happiest days in the run up to the wedding.

On the day itself, I danced all night! Thank you Miina for making me feel so beautiful ❤️"

"Indie Bride is incredible! My partner and I decided to get married fairly quickly after getting engaged, meaning we didn't have much longer than 4 months to organise things. I was also quite set on ensuring my wedding dress would be made sustainably, so was fairly narrowed down to where I could buy my dress from.

I found Indie Bride during my search - Miina kindly said she would be able to create my dress in time for the wedding. When visiting, I felt no pressure to make a decision and Miina was very patient while I picked out some styles I liked - being notoriously bad at making decisions, this was a lengthy process.

The finished dress was stunning, made of beautiful soft silk with an elegant train. While wearing the dress I felt totally comfortable (including through dinner), and didn't stop dancing for a moment throughout the evening. Most of the comments I received were on how the dress looked exactly like "me", and that's exactly how it felt - with an extra level of magic.

It was a pleasure to work with you Miina, and I would recommend anyone looking for a more eco-conscious, unique wedding dress to try Indie Bride!

"What a totally wonderful experience it is to buy a wedding dress at Indie Bride! I could not be happier with everything. From day 1 Miina makes you feel so relaxed and comfortable and the studio is such a calm and beautiful environment in the roof of a church. The emphasis was always on finding something that felt like 'you' and expresses who you are. I certainly found that in my Wylie dress - it is such a beautiful dress. The lace, the textures, the fit, it all feels so in-tune with my 'look' and my personality, and Miina totally understood that. All the materials are beautiful and for me it was really important that the dress I wore on my wedding day was as sustainable as possible.

I felt really comfortable and cared for in the fittings and Miina was so attentive to make sure I was really happy with the fit, the adjustments, and the little additions we made to trims and lengths to be able to show off other features of my wedding outfit, like my crazy shoes. She was really open-minded and I felt like the experience was collaborative and creative.

I could not recommend Miina and Indiebride more and I know that she will make many brides extremely happy in the months and years to come.

Thank you so much, Miina!"

“Working with Miina was like a breath of fresh air. She is calm, relaxed and tunes in to your own personality and preferences very quickly so you feel you’ve known her a long time. Her dresses are exquisite - I could have chosen any one of the beautiful pieces I tried on - and they are made for real women.

At my first appointment I was wearing uncomfortable structured control underwear to suck me in and hide my mum-tummy. Miina gently suggested I get rid of the control pants to try the dress on with my natural figure, because she designs dresses to enhance the female form in all its shapes and sizes… and hey presto I felt absolutely beautiful, womanly and most of all comfy.

Thank you, Miina for helping me feel like a very gorgeous version of me. You’re an artist. It was such a pleasure working with you and I’m so grateful for your patience, your advice and guidance throughout the process.”

“I was lucky enough to stumble across Indie Bride when scrolling on Instagram. It was the first time I felt like I was ready to find a wedding dress, (I’m not a huge dress girl) and this was something that really played on my mind.

I went to meet Miina in her studio, which was stunning and so cosy. This made me feel super comfy to try on a very important dress. I loved everything about Miina and what she does. The biggest thing that stood out for me was that everything was sustainable. I tried on the Pixie dress, which is the one I had my eye on. Not expecting to like it on me even a little, I felt that ‘feeling’ and I knew it was the dress for me. Miina was so supportive throughout the whole process up until final fittings. It was the perfect experience."
