Loved my wedding dress! And cannot thank Raffaele enough, particularly the alterations team for bringing to life the sleeve additions I wanted for the ceremony and photos 💕 From communication down to the quality of the gown, I cannot recommend them enough. My Mum brought her dress from Raffaele for her wedding day ( almost 35 years ago) so to be able to carry that tradition was even more special. Thank you so much for making me feel beautiful for our special day but for allowing me to be that bit creative and authentic to myself and my wants ☺️

The team at Raffaele Ciuca were wonderful with me. Being a plus size bride, it can be a very daunting and at times humiliating process finding a dress but the team did a great job of making me feel comfortable. I've deducted a star because the range of actual plus size dresses (street size 20/22) is not as advertised. My fitter did an amazing job of clamping me in to smaller sample sizes but i was a bit disappointed there were no dresses available to zip up - I couldn't explore whether a mermaid/fishtail style would suit me because of this. Thank you to the team for treating me with care and respect

I had the best experience buying my wedding dress at Raffaele Ciuca Bridal (Armadale)! Maria's customer service was superb and she made the experience so enjoyable. Her suggestions regarding different styles and alterations were honest and helpful. She went above and beyond to ensure I was buying the dress of my dreams and her customer service was genuine. She made myself, my family and my bridesmaids feel welcome and took onboard our feedback as we filtered through different options. She also helped me find a veil that matched my dress perfectly. After shopping at other bridal stores, I realised

The only place to shop for your wedding dress. Their range of dresses are just amazing. The service is incredible and made me feel at ease while trying on dresses to find my dream dress. They picked out my dress before I had seen it based on my brief in what I was looking for and thats the dress I went with. Highly recommend Maria and her team!

I had the absolute pleasure of having Theresa as my consultant at the Brunswick store. She was incredibly helpful and attentive and I could tell she was being honest with me and not pressuring me into anything. It was very clear that has been doing this for a long time as I felt completely at ease the whole time. I was fortunate enough to say Yes to the Dress here and I have total confidence that they are going to make the whole journey to my wedding day amazing.

I visited three different bridal stores searching for my wedding dress and I easily had the best experience at Raffaele Ciuca. The store is presented beautifully and the customer service, especially from the lovely Pina was fantastic. Pina made me feel comfortable from the beginning and I knew I was in very capable hands. She listened to what type of dress I was after and got me to try on several others to make sure I was absolutely sure. I ended up saying Yes to the dress with the second one she had me try on. Aldo, the lovely dress maker/designer from their alterations store was also incredibly

Francesca in Brunswick is truely the best in the business. I have been to countless fittings, Francesca is the only stylist who took the time to listen to my story and make me feel so comfortable and beautiful. The very first dress I tried.. I said yes 😍
The only person I would recommend going to for your dress, she is just amazing.

A wonderful experience. The bridal show room is beautiful and the separate private area for trying on the dresses is really lovely. It was Maria who helped me to try on the dresses. She was fantastic. Very warm, welcoming and knowledgeable, and really took the time to fit all the dresses on me so I could see them in their best light. I didn’t feel rushed at all and she gave great advice. I would definitely recommend this bridal shop for all brides to be.
