BOOK AN APPOINTMENTThe vision behind Petticoat Lane Bridal Boutique
hi, i’m katie - founder & owner
I’m Katie, founder and owner of Petticoat Lane Bridal Boutique - a space I opened alongside my mum, Denise, in 2010. What began as a shared vision has grown into something far more meaningful than we could ever have imagined. Each appointment is so much more than finding a dress. It’s about the moments shared - with friends, with family, and often with brides who quickly feel like old friends.
I’m a wife and a proud (and very busy) mum to three boys who keep life wonderfully full. When I can, I love escaping to the North Coast with family and friends — long walks, beautiful food, and a glass of wine in good company are my idea of perfect. I feel incredibly fortunate to work alongside the most dedicated and talented team, who share the same passion and care for our brides as I do.

Hannah
I joined Petticoat Lane over seven years ago after studying Textile Art, Design and Fashion - and I’ve loved every moment since. I adore the creativity of styling each bride and being part of such special moments. Outside the boutique, I’m a mum to my daughter, Pippa, and enjoy time with family, friends, and the occasional cocktail.
Annabelle
I joined Petticoat Lane during the final year of my Fashion & Textile Design degree & have loved being part of the team ever since. I’m passionate about helping brides express their individuality and feel their absolute best. Outside the boutique, I enjoy painting, sewing, & spending time on the North Coast with my family & dogs.
Paula
I’ve been part of Petticoat Lane since it first opened in 2010. With a background in bridal, I love building relationships with our brides and creating looks that truly reflect their style. Outside of work, I’m a busy mum of three boys and enjoy time with family, sunny holidays, and a good catch-up with friends.

A Collection of Beautiful Experiences
“Had a wonderful experience getting my wedding dress at Petticoat Lane. They had so many styles to choose from and were so knowledgeable about the designers and which alterations/customisations could and could not be made to the dresses. I also got my hairpiece and veil in the shop, and everything arrived in the timeframe they stated up front. I dealt with a number of the women on the phone and in person and everyone was so lovely”
