All about: The Dressing Room's Bespoke Wedding Open Day

An unabashedly feminine haven where things are definitely ladies-only, Lucy & The Powder Room  and the adjoining Dressing Room at The Department Store in Takapuna  make for the perfect destination in the lead up to - and on - your big day, or any celebration for that matter. It’s where you can be coached onto the road to the healthiest version of you, refining, rehydrating and reconditioning hair, skin and nails whilst being pampered as only The Powder Room knows how.

If you’re celebrating or prepping before a special occasion as a group, Lucy & The Powder Room’s iconic Girls Parties - catering for groups between three and fifteen - are the ideal wind-down and ramp-up on the beauty and indulgence front. They can be booked for anytime on Tuesdays to Saturdays, and services on offer include the Powder Room’s stellar manicures and pedicures, mini facials to get your skin glowing and the signature ‘Runway Touch Up’ - a basic hair up, lips, eyes and nails to get the party started right. Soho wine, artisan teas and top notch, fair trade coffee are all complimentary, or you can add on catering for $30.00 per person to enjoy the likes of Pink Gin cocktails and mouth-watering sweet treat from Little & Friday. 

You can also check in with the Powder Room’s skincare gurus to make sure that you have a beauty plan in place in the lead up to your big day, from nutritionals, hair, skin and makeup tips to the top products to add to your arsenal to look your absolute best.  You can schedule in everything from a facial regime to spray tan practice runs as well as explore hair options like extensions, keratin treatments and protein and moisture-boosting infusions.

Beneath every beautiful outfit is the perfect lingerie, and The Dressing Room is where you’ll find an impeccable edit of international and local designers’ interpretation of exactly that. On the racks you’ll find everyone from Lonely lingerie to Stella McCartney and Ingrid Starnes, as well as favourites like Miss Crabb and Kate Sylvester. You can choose from edgy, bold colours in rich satins or the softest muted tones of delicate lace, pieces that are for show or just shown a little. Find your perfect piece for your style and dedicated occasion.

They are also stockists of cult bridalwear and accessories label Bo & Luca - dresses and headwear for the ultimate free spirit. Each of their collections is designed through a creative process without rules, their unique design aesthetic inspired by a love of travel and shaped by people and cultures from around the world. Totally feminine and completely unlike anything else available in New Zealand, the Dressing Room have a rack of their designs ready to be played with and enjoyed, then tailored to meet your needs.

But anyway... if you want to check out all of the above at an event specifically devoted to all things wedding, pop into their in-house Bespoke Wedding Open Day, happening this Sunday between 10am and 4pm. Expect much gorgeousness, gems from Love + Object to coo over, free makeup touch ups and even a goodie bag to take away... just beautiful.
