Hear from some of our REAL Brides below!
"Penny is absolutely fantastic at collaborating with her brides to make all their dress dreams come true. I was hesitant to go wedding dress shopping, but after meeting Penny and Matt at the Adelaide Bridal expo, it all just fell in to place. She made me feel so comfortable throughout the whole process and was so open to my thoughts and ideas. The bridal hood/cape/veil she made for me was absolutely stunning, so many comments were made about it, it was a great piece for my dream wedding. Having my dress made meant it fit perfectly, was comfortable and highlighted my assets exactly as I wanted. Would definitely recommend the unique experience ARA Experience has to offer!"

I am so happy I chose ARA Experience to create my wedding dress!
I began looking for my wedding dress a year before my wedding and was extremely overwhelmed with the amount of dresses I was unsure about, I went to around 4 different bridal houses, and tried on over 20 dresses...
I came across a lovely Adelaide couple starting up a new bridal business called ARA Experience and they made the whole experience exciting and easy
Penny has the most beautiful and creative soul and really went above and beyond to make the dress of my dreams! We spent time together focussing on fabrics; designing and perfecting the dress even to the last embroided flower.
The process was easy and personal, which was really important to me
I highly recommend ARA Experience!

"I cannot recommend ARA EXPERIENCE enough. Penny created the dream wedding dress for me! She listened to all my ideas and constant emails and helped me create a custom one of a kind dress! Penny was so lovely to deal with along the whole process and she made me feel so special! If you are looking for someone to bring your dream wedding dress to life with so much attention to detail please contact ARA. You won’t regret it! Thanks for making my day so special and making me feel the best I could ever be!"
