With a special interest in corsetry and ballgowns, you'll be in the safest hands with Emma, who pours her passion for wedding dresses and bridal fashion into every dress. It's a unique, personal and incredibly special experience, where you will work together to create the dress of your dreams. Read on to discover the world of Emma Tindley...
The Experience
The Emma Tindley experience is different from the usual bridal boutique offering. It isn't a 'shop' offering samples from a multitude of designers, when you try them on, pick one and it's then ordered in from the brand. Every dress you'll see at Emma Tindley has been beautifully handcrafted by Emma herself, and these are just the starting point at the beginning of a unique journey. Think of the dresses in the showroom as examples, ideas for what could be, and use these to inspire your own bespoke wedding dress commission.

The Daydreams Collection
Designed and crafted exclusively by Emma Tindley, The Daydreams Collection encompasses everything Emma adores about bridal design. Featuring structured ballgowns with hidden corsetry, exquisite fabrics including French lace, embossed Italian silk jacquard, fluffy tulle and luxurious silk organza, along with intricate details and perfectly placed embellishments, it's a timeless collection with a romantic, feminine feel.

Introducing Emma
It's 1981, and a 7 year old Emma is transfixed. On the screen, a vision in a cloud of ivory silk taffeta and antique lace has stepped out a grand golden carriage. It's of course, the beautiful, elegant Princess Diana, and along with millions of viewers around the world, Emma is falling in love. This is the moment where it all started - a life dedicated to wedding dresses, and a passion for making women feel their most incredible, confident and beautiful selves.
"My mission is to make every woman feel at her absolute best on her wedding day. To create the most beautiful wedding dresses, that fit perfectly to make the bride feel comfortable and confident." - Emma
