If you’re planning a wedding in Norfolk and looking for inspiration, attending a bridal show can be a great place to start. I’m a wedding videographer in based in Norfolk and I recently filmed a stunning fashion show at Dragon Hall, all put together by the amazing Pure Brides, a bridal and menswear shop in Norwich. This showcased the latest bridal trends, dresses, suits and mother of the bride outfits for couples getting married in Norfolk.
I had the pleasure of being invited along to capture the event and despite filming weddings across Norfolk, I had never been to Dragon Hall before, it was such a cool wedding venue and a great place to host Pure Bride’s fashion show. Check out the BTS video here:
Norfolk Bridal Show – Wedding Film Highlights
As a Norfolk wedding videographer, events like this are a great opportunity to capture the atmosphere and creativity that goes into modern weddings. It’s fun to hang out with other wedding suppliers, some I’ve worked with before and some who I had met for the first time. From elegant gowns to contemporary styling, this fashion show at Dragon Hall in Norwich offered plenty of inspiration for couples planning their big day.
Pure Brides – Norfolk Bridal Shop
Q: What makes Pure Brides and pure Suits different?
Anna (Owner): “Pure feels different, it’s warm, it’s welcoming, my team are fantastic and it’s the way we make our customers feel that sets us apart.”
Q: What do you want brides and grooms to feel when they walk in?
Anna: “For every bride or groom that walks through our door, we just want them to feel welcome, I want them to feel that warmth and just how much passion we put into the experience they are going to have when they come to see us. For me, it’s ensuring they can really trust us, we are always open and honest with them and we always want to make sure we give them our very best.”
Q: What was your vision for tonight?
Riro (Social Media Manager): “My vision tonight was just to create a space that brides could come in and kind of just feel like ‘forget the world’ a little bit. Brides, people who have been getting married, about to get married, their friends are getting married. I wanted to create a space where they could come in and just enjoy the night and enjoy fashion and I think I’ve been able to capture that. I hope so! I hope they think the same. But yeah, I think in every event that we do at Pure, I just want to create a safe space for people to come and just enjoy and be able to express themselves.”
Q: What trends are we seeing in bridal right now?
Molly (Bridal Manager): “Trends are always changing, you’ve got bridal trends and then what brides are loving but what we’re seeing trending is your basque waist. It’s like a little point that goes down, it’s super flattering and makes your waist look tiny. A lot of full lace, scoop neck and square neck is big at the minute as well. There’s trends but there’s also just what you love as well, it’s a mixture.”
Q: What are the biggest trends in menswear right now?
Iona (Menswear Manager): “The biggest trends in men’s right now, I would say is tuxedos. Everyone loves the classic look, it’s really elegant and it’s timeless and it will never go out of fashion and also beige. A lot of people are like beige at the minute.”

Planning Your Wedding in Norfolk
Bridal shows like this are perfect for discovering local suppliers and visualising how your wedding could look. As a Norfolk wedding videographer, I always recommend couples attend at least one event like this to gather ideas and meet trusted vendors. You get a chance to meet them in person and even get a glimpse of they will work on your day.
Another way to get great inspiration for your wedding day is to watch some wedding films! Check out a couple of real weddings on my website HERE
