Curvy Bridal at The Bridal Affair
The Bridal Affair is based in the beautiful market town of Easingwold, just outside York. Within our boutique, Curvy Bridal at The Bridal Affair offers a calm, private and welcoming space where you can enjoy your appointment without feeling rushed, overlooked or pressured.
During your appointment, the boutique is exclusively yours. You will have time to talk through your wedding plans, browse our collection and try on a range of gowns with expert guidance from Lisa, who has over 20 years’ experience in the wedding industry.
Our approach is honest, supportive and completely centred around you. We will help you understand what different shapes, fabrics and structures can do, while always listening to how you feel in each dress.
Plus Size Bridal Samples You Can Actually Try On
We know how important it is to be able to try on real sample gowns that give you a genuine sense of fit, shape and style.
At The Bridal Affair, we hold bridal samples in store across a wide range of sizes, with our main bridal sample collection ranging from approximately bridal size 6–28. Our Curvy Bridal selection begins from around bridal size 16 upwards, giving curvier brides the chance to explore beautiful gowns designed with comfort, confidence and support in mind.
Some designers may offer smaller or larger sizes to order, depending on the dress and collection. However, not every gown is available in every size, and sample sizes can vary by designer and individual style.
If sizing is something you feel nervous about, please contact us before booking. We will always be honest, kind and helpful about what we currently have available to try.
Designed to Celebrate Your Shape
A beautiful plus size wedding dress should never feel like a compromise. The right gown should support you, flatter you and help you feel completely yourself.
Our Curvy Bridal collection at The Bridal Affair includes dresses chosen for their structure, comfort and style, from timeless A-line gowns and romantic lace dresses to fitted silhouettes, soft sleeve options, flowing skirts and statement trains.
Your appointment is not about hiding your body. It is about finding the dress that helps you feel beautiful, confident and completely bridal.



Off-the-Peg Plus Size Wedding Dresses
If your wedding is coming up soon, or you would love to take home a dress without waiting for a made-to-order gown, our Off-the-Peg collection may be perfect for you.
We have a dedicated Off-the-Peg section with over 50 dresses ready to take home the same day. These gowns can be ideal for brides with shorter timelines, destination weddings, elopements, intimate ceremonies or those who simply fall in love with a sample gown that is ready and waiting.
Our Off-the-Peg dresses can be browsed online and filtered by approximate high street size, helping you narrow the collection to gowns that may be suitable before booking your appointment. Bridal sizing can vary between designers and styles, so this is intended as a helpful guide rather than an exact fit guarantee.
Availability changes regularly and sizes vary, so please contact us or book an Off-the-Peg appointment to see what is currently available.
