Victoria & her bridal boutique

Victoria brings together fun, creativity, and exceptional talent. Her boutique is a true treasure trove, filled with exquisite wedding gowns, luxurious fabrics and laces, sparkling crystal and bead embellishments, and a beautiful selection of tiaras and veils. Stepping into Victoria's boutique is a unique experience in itself - from the moment you arrive, you’ll feel part of our family. 

 

Creativity has always been at the heart of Victoria’s journey. With a natural artistic flair from a young age, she began her studies in Art & Design at Stockport College in 1991, before continuing on to Loughborough College of Art & Design. In 1996, she graduated with a degree in Textile Design, having dedicated her dissertation to wedding dresses—a reflection of the passion that would shape her career.

 

The following year, Victoria made history by becoming the first student from Loughborough College to win the prestigious “Best of 20 Designers” award in the UK. This achievement led her to Paris, where she showcased her Haute Couture designs at the Indigo Trade Fair and sold pieces to luxury brands including Louis Féraud, Oscar de la Renta, Diben Lingerie, and Massimo Rubini.

In 2002, Victoria relocated to Hong Kong, where she spent 12 years as Design Director for some of the world’s leading retailers. Her work spanned an extraordinary and extensive range - from innovative theatre costumes to the most magical and whimsical Christmas and seasonal product collections sold globally.

After returning to the UK, Victoria launched Wedding Dresses Of Manchester in 2014 following her passion and love for creating beautiful wedding gowns. Since then, Victoria has sold hundreds of dresses for weddings both in the UK and abroad - assisting brides on a very personal level to choose the dress of their dreams - creating something unique for one of the most special and memorable occasions of your life. 


We believe that choosing your wedding gown should be exciting, fun, and stress-free. As a family-run boutique, Victoria and her team understand how important this experience is. From the moment you arrive, you’ll be warmly welcomed, made to feel at ease, and encouraged to enjoy the process in our relaxed, friendly atmosphere.

 

If your dress requires any tailoring or customizing, Victoria has a wealth of design experience to bring your dream dress to life and will ensure you have a beautiful dress for your special day.
