Our Team Highlights

Nardene Smith, Sales Manager

"I’m particularly proud of the number of brands we've seen join us this year, both in print and digital. It’s been exciting to see how we’ve been able to help boost their visibility and support their growth in the bridal industry through the UK's number one bridal trade publication. Seeing their success stories unfold has been a definite highlight of 2024 for me."

Anna-Marie DeSouza, Editor

"Undoubtedly, hosting the Bridal Buyer Awards. It was a truly special evening, celebrating incredible talent and hard work of retailers and suppliers who continue to shape the industry. These moments remind me just how vibrant and inspiring this industry is!"

Chloe Monro, Marketing Executive

"Introducing the Lounge Session series at Harrogate was a true highlight for me. Our expert contributors brought such depth to the conversations, discussing everything from bridal trends to business tactics—what's most rewarding is seeing how these insights and meaningful chats resonated with our retailers."

Ella O'Keefe, Marketing Consultant

"2024 has been a turning point in my career—I left Bridal Buyer to start my own business, and it’s been incredible to come back as a regular contributor, where I can share my experiences and expertise with other retailers through the marketing pieces I write for the website. It's so fulfilling to help retailers find their feet in this ever-changing market."
