Caroline Castigliano

This place is so classy it in unbelievable. I came here on an appointment with a friend, thinking I was not going to do the whole ‘white dress’ thing. I’m still not sure but if anywhere can sway me, this place can. The displays in the window are so elegant and the selection of dresses they have are lovely. I was treated really well by the staff who did not laugh at my concerns about being too traditional and were professional and helpful. highly recommended.

This wedding dress shop in the very city centre of Edinburgh has the most breathtaking displays, which I’ve noticed change quite often! I’m not a wedding girl at all, but my friend and I nevertheless hatched this wonderful plan to pretend we were brides to be, just so we could try on all the beautiful dresses in there. Due to the prime location, and Italian name, I’ll assume it’s not cheap! I’ll definitely be googling this Caroline Castigliano, and if I were to become the more wedding-​inclined kind of gal one day, I’ve already seen the one I want!

Without wanting to sound likea bunny-​boiler, this shop makes me want to get married. Tomorrow. I doubt there’s a woman in the world who doesn’t get excited by the words «luxury» «bridal» and «gowns» next to eachother in a sentence.
And when I do get hitched, even if I’m living on the other side of the world at that point in time I will be coming here to get my wedding dress. Fact.
I have to admit something… I’ve not yet set foot inside the shop, as it’s operated by appointment only. But I’ve had a good nosey in the windows on many occasions, as well as drooling over their website far more than is really healthy. The collection is divided into the Opulent range and the Indulgent range, and I have so far shortlisted about 20.
Unfortunately, they’re not cheap. As in, prices aren’t even listed in the window or on the website. But if you’re only going to do it once then you may as well splurge, right? As soon as one of my coupled-​up friends gets a diamond on her finger I’ll be making an appointment here. For her benefit, obvously…

This. place. is. amazing.
If my punctuation hasn’t emphasized this enough, allow me to continue…
This shop just SCREAMS classy. From the outset — the old victorian-​style building just looks chic. The gorgeous dresses in the window are amazing, they just know style in here. I’m single, yet even I’m tempted to do a ‘Murials Wedding’ and come in here…
Imagine my face when I was told that one of my mums best friends was getting married, and I was allowed to come alone with them to Caroline Castigliano… I nearly wet myself
The place was just as amazing as I could have hoped for. The staff were amazing, the dressing area was divine.
if you’re getting married, you NEED to come here. Seriously. It’s a must.

I am not a married woman, nor am I engaged. I don’t plan on getting hitched any time soon, but I absolutely love looking at wedding dresses. I look at them regularly, and this website is one of my favourites. And I think I just saw a boyfriend shaped hole in the door.
Seriously though, these dresses are beautiful. I can only recommend this store from what I have seen, and I imagine it’s pretty expensive because it’s by strict appointment only. The dresses are classic and beautiful, so if you’re about to walk up that aisle then get in here for a look first!
