The Bridal Outlet
About
Overview & Vibe
The Bridal Outlet runs two stores a long way apart — Somersby on the New South Wales Central Coast and Ballarat in country Victoria — and holds 239 gowns between them. It is an outlet in the real sense: gowns are held in stock rather than ordered in, and its whole catalogue tells you which store each gown is actually in before you drive.
Dress Styles & Designers
162 wedding gowns from the Allure family — Allure Bridals, Allure Romance, Allure Women and, at Ballarat, Allure Couture — plus Madison James, Wilderly Bridal, Tina Holly and Abella. Bridesmaids and debutante gowns come from Tania Olsen, Nicoletta, Jadore and Lulu & Lace. The range runs ballgown, sheath and A-line above all, with fit-and-flare and princess line behind them.
Ideal For
A bride who wants to try a gown on today rather than wait months for one to be made, and one shopping a wide size range — the catalogue lists gowns in sizes 0 to 30, and up to 40 on some styles. Because every gown is tagged to a store, it also suits anyone travelling in: you can check the dress is in the building before you set out.
The Need-to-Knows
Bookings are essential at both stores, and each has its own booking form. Submitting it is not a confirmation — the store contacts you within two business days to confirm. Appointments are obligation free, but they ask you to tell them if you need to cancel or move. Both stores open Tuesday to Friday 10am–5pm and Saturday 9am–4pm, closed Sunday and Monday. No prices are published.
Standout Feature
Every gown in the catalogue carries a collection location — 94 wedding gowns at Somersby and 72 at Ballarat. Almost no bridal store publishes which branch holds which dress, and for a two-store business a thousand kilometres apart it is the difference between a wasted drive and a fitting.

Dress Experience
- The Bridal Outlet runs two stores far apart — Somersby on the Central Coast of New South Wales and Ballarat in country Victoria.
- Its catalogue tags every gown to the store that holds it, so a bride can confirm the dress is in the building before making the trip.
- Gowns are held in stock rather than ordered in, which is what an outlet means here.
- An appointment is a personal styling session with an experienced bridal consultant, and the store says plainly that it is obligation free.
- Booking is a two-step process: you send the form, and the store confirms within two business days.
