We truly love Miss Bush – and for those of you not in the know, this bridal boutique located in the peaceful village of Ripley in Surrey, should be on the radar of every bride planning a wedding.
This isn’t just because the venue has a slick edit of absolutely gorgeous bridal fashion, but because the lady at the fore of Miss Bush, Emma Marshall, is a simply incredible stylist, whose passion is in assisting women on all levels of the confidence scale, look and feel out of this world amazing on their wedding day. Empowering women with confidence and style is what Emma was born to do.
This article shares 8 reasons why you should book your appointment at Miss Bush without hesitation.
1. The April Sample Sale
Throughout the month of April, Miss Bush bridal boutique, will be hosting a month long, incredible sample sale. Now it’s important that we mention right now, that the sale is going to be located off-site, at Miss Bush partner boutique, Nortier Shallow in Basingstoke. This is because in April, Miss Bush will be closing their doors for a super swanky new eco-roof install (more on that below).
The Miss Bush sample sales are utterly legendary. You will find multiple unique, creative, high fashion wedding dresses, alongside the classic, minimalist style Miss Bush are loved and adored for – and all for a fraction of the usual price tag.
This event is by appointment only – you’ll find full details here. Book now to avoid disappointment.

2. The Boutique is in a Real Former Chapel
….and is getting a swanky new eco-roof
Miss Bush is based in a beautiful Victorian chapel just 20 minutes from London in Ripley, Surrey. This gorgeous space has been lovingly transformed to create a haven of calm and beauty inside. It’s like stepping into a secret salon of utterly exquisite fashion and accessories. And the vibes are raised the moment you approach this beautiful building and step through the chapel doors.
There couldn’t be a more authentic experience to be had when on the hunt for your wedding dress.
There is never a good time to lose your main showroom space, but the Government’s LoCase (Low Carbon across the South East) initiative was too good an opportunity to pass up. Ethical and environmental issues are a huge talking point in the fashion industry and this is another move on our part to be as conscious as possible in this respect. The roof has to come off to add insulation and it is an incredible step towards our goal of becoming a B-Corp. Fingers crossed for a smooth project! Emma Marshall
3. Thirty Five Years of Bridal Fashion Expertise
Boutiques like Miss Bush offer a truly luxurious experience. This doesn’t just come in the form of the beautiful surroundings and opportunity to try on as many looks as you like in an un-rushed 1:1 appointment. It also comes in the form of unrivalled expertise and high end knowledge when it comes to bridal styling and advice.
Emma has created a bridal styling team who innately understand how important it is to be at the forefront of bridal fashion whilst simultaneously honouring classic bridal style and traditional dressmaking techniques.
