Mother Of the Bride Dress Help!

Oh wise ladies, if you were going shopping in Manchester to look for a MOB dress where would you go? I am struggling to find something online so trying there.

I don't go very often so have not much clue what's there, aside from the usual high street shops.

I’d try Boundary Mill which is Lancashire not Manchester. You’d probably get everything there outfit, shoes, bag,hat etc.
Would previously had said Kendals in Manchester but it closed in 2018 and is now House of Fraser.
There’s a shop called Aubergine, Wigan appt only.

I know someone who recently travelled from “ down South” to Boundary Mill. She got outfits and accessories for both of her sons’ weddings for less than the price of an occasion dress where she lives.

Boundary Mill is a good recommendation. If you go, make sure you get the app as you can usually get an extra 10% off by showing the app at the till.

An alternative is to search “Paule Vasseur” on Vinted as they are ‘mother of the bride’ specialists and there are lots of outfits on there at bargain prices.

Oh really? I've heard of it but not with any idea what was there. Ok I'll add there to the list thank you!

Anywhere in Manchester itself anyone?

There is Broadstone Mill in Stockport which has a wedding section. I have not been for ages but have seen photos on friends phones and they got their dresses at a good price.

Thanks everyone, doesn't look like there's much in Manchester then.
