Mark your diaries brides-to-be, because Helen Rodrigues is thrilled to announce the exciting arrival of Elie Saab Bridal in Australia next month. Wedding gowns from the stunning new 2017 collection will be available to purchase exclusively at our Neutral Bay boutique for two days only at our special trunk show happening on Friday 25th and Saturday 26th November – appointments essential.

An entirely new bridal line that joins the Elie Saab haute couture and ready-to-wear collections; in the air de temps of the modern bride, both feminine and daring silhouettes feature making our Elie Saab Bridal exclusive showcase a wonderful opportunity to find your dream gown.

A few things to consider before making your appointment:

• The Elie Saab Bridal range is between $14,000 - $50,000 (includes the cost of your fittings/alterations)
• There will be a one-off $100 fee for your personalised one hour appointment  The sample gowns are size AU10
• No makeup or fake tan can be worn to your appointment to uphold the integrity of the gowns
• No photographs are permitted during your appointment
• We kindly ask that you limit the friends/family members you bring with you to three
• As the Elie Saab gowns are only here for two days, we highly recommend that you have tried on gowns elsewhere before coming so that you can make your decision during your appointment knowing you have tried on other styles/designers prior

Elie Saab dazzles with his intricate details and strong sense of beauty, working with fine materials and delicate embroideries. He builds his fairytale creations using simple designs and precious resources, whilst always maintaining a form of sophistication. His specialty is the ultimate dress that highlights a woman's silhouette.

We are so honoured to have such an esteemed designer joining the Helen Rodrigues Bridal range and look forward to meeting all the lovely brides-to-be.

Appointments are limited, so book now to make sure you don’t miss out - (02) 9904 5700.

Helen Rodrigues Celebrates 15 Years

This year marked 15 years since the renowned Helen Rodrigues bridal boutique first opened its doors in Neutral Bay, Sydney – an achievement our family owned business is immensely proud of. To celebrate the occasion we held a special anniversary event to intimately thank all of our beautiful brides (both past and present), and our wonderful suppliers who have supported the Helen Rodrigues brand over the years. 

We also saw it as an opportunity to give something back to a cause close to our heart. Thanks to our designers who kindly donated beautiful gifts for our event auction, we were able to raise $10,000 for the McGrath Foundation and highlight the important work they do; with CEO, Petra Buchanan, also in attendance.

Held at the Park Hyatt Hotel with the lovely Catriona Rowntree as our MC; guests had delicious canapés and sipped on Veuve Clicquot champagne, while models showcased our luxury designer bridal gowns to jazz courtesy of The Moods. 

We were also incredibly honoured to have esteemed Israeli designer, Inbal Dror, create an exquisite, one-off gown for us to help celebrate this milestone for our brand. Something very special indeed.

Here’s to many more years of iconic bridal couture with Helen Rodrigues.
