”Anna is amazing at what she does.
Charlotte Snedden
Not only did she create the perfect wedding dress for me, she is so kind and down to earth, and listened to what I wanted.
Highly recommend Anna if you are looking for beautifully made dresses.

GIVING BACK
HOW OUR WEDDING GOWNS DO GOOD
Every Anna Schimmel wedding dress supports a girl in Togo, Africa to attend school for a year. Through our partnership with SHE, each bridal gown helps provide a uniform, tuition, and the support she needs to continue learning.
Over the years, our New Zealand brides have made possible more than 400 years of girls’ education. Choosing an Anna Schimmel wedding dress also supports education and opportunity beyond your own wedding day. Together, we are giving young girls the chance to stay in school, build confidence, and create a brighter future.
