I had a wonderful experience in Finesse Bridal Wear. Mags and Liz are incredibly friendly, professional and amazing at what they do. There was so accommodating when it came to my busy schedule, arranging and changing time to suit me. They made the entire process stress free and enjoyable, taking the time to get my dress exactly how I wanted it. Their patience, attention to detail and exceptional customer service made me feel great. They also have an in house seamstress who is a perfectionist at what she does. I would highly highly recommend stopping by here to any future bride to be 💕👰♀️🍾

I would highly recommend Finesse Bridal Wear to anyone. Mags & Liz were so welcoming from the second we arrived and have such a great eye for what will suit a bride. I tried on a few dresses but kept coming back to the first dress that Mags had picked out for me to try on. She made the whole experience so easy. They have a seamstress in store which is an amazing service and Kay is also a pleasure to deal with. It was definitely worth all the trips from West Cork. 😊

I was very nervous when I started looking at wedding dresses as I was plus size, I contacted Liz and Mags and they were so kind and helpful. I had about 8 months before the wedding. They put me completely at ease with all my queries. They let me chose dresses and then they also brought out dresses they thought would suit my shape and figure. It was the first shop I went to and I chose my dress there and then! The high quality and design was amazing. Id Highly recommend finesse bridal

I had an amazing experience at this bridal shop from start to finish. LIz & mags were welcoming, professional, and genuinely cared about helping me find the perfect dress. They made the whole process enjoyable and stress-free, and their attention to detail was outstanding. I felt confident and beautiful on my wedding day thanks to their help. I would highly recommend this shop to any bride-to-be looking for exceptional service and a wonderful selection of dress. I was lucky enough to purchase my dress from the designer veni infantino who was in the store that day to help me also . It was just the best experience ever , they are truly the best in the business 💜 Siobhan

I got my wedding dress at Finesse Bridal in Listowel and I could not have been happier with both the service and how it turned out. I loved how honest both Liz and Mags were and they genuinely want each bride to just feel beautiful on their special day. They made the dress shopping experience so easy. They had Absolutely fabulous dresses to choose from and were brilliant at seeing what was working and what wasn't. They both have so much experience with brides and it is so clear from the minute you walk in the door. I am so grateful to both of them and I can honestly say I loved my dress, I would definitely recommend any bride to be, to try this place.

I cannot recommend these ladies enough. The service, the dress, the welcome & the easiness of it all.
They know what will suit you before you know yourself! Liz picked my dress & it was the first one I tried after picking what I thought I liked. I tried it on for the sake of it thinking, it’s not what I would pick & OMG I knew immediately this is what I was going to wear on my wedding day. She is incredible & I really loved my dress!
The service is fantastic including the alterations. The ladies are so professional but also kind & warm.
I truly loved my experience with Finesse & highly recommend you purchase there. We are so lucky to have such a fantastic business in Kerry!

I cannot speak highly enough of Mag and Liz and the quality of service I received from them. I had been to a few bridal shops and had picked a dress in Cork that I loved and thought was the one. I had always planned on going to listowel but after cork I had no expectations. I had looked on the website of finesse but nothing had caught my eye.
I was pleasantly surprised when I visited, the dresses are in fantastic condition and there was great variety, even for a plus size girl (myself). When I looked back on a picture of the dress from Cork I knew that didn't come close to what Mag picked for me. I cannot wait for my wedding to put it back on
thanks you both so much for everything

Mags and Liz in Finesse are so helpful and friendly. They give each bride 100% and they have a great eye for what will suit a bride to be. They are calm and considerate and easy to talk to. They have a great range of dresses and accessories and always seem to have new stock in too. They have a good price range and their shop/showroom is modern and bright. They have their own seamstress which is a great service too. They are 2 of the nicest shop owners I know and I can't recommend them enough.

I was recently home from Australia and trying to organise my wedding which is in December. I had to buy my dress in Sydney but I made contact with the girls in Finesse to arrange an appointment to help me choose accessories and organise my alterations. The service they provide is amazing. I didn't have a great experience buying my dress in Sydney and I felt I had my bridal experience in Finesse. They helped me choose all my accessories and they are perfect with my dress. They have also taken pressure off me by sorting my alterations. To any bride in Co. Kerry or surrounding areas I would highly recommend to make and appointment to see Mags and Liz.They are professional, fun and honest and provide a top service. My two sisters have also purchased their dresses here and were beyond happy. Thanks again to Finesse x

went out to finesse in oct clearly not planning on getting my dress after trying on a few dresses I fell in love with the one and to my shock I said yes to the dress it was short lived as the supplier had decided to discontinue the dress but I cannot praise Mags enough for promising me I would find the perfect dress and that I did Mags and Liz got there new collection for 2015 in late November and on the phone to me to come back out that I did Mags was very flexible with me and met me on what was her day off and can't thank her enough what I love about finesse is there is no real time limit there's no rushing you to make a decision and they do everything to make you happy can't recommend them enough and I look forward to wearing my dress x

I cannot recommend both Liz and Mag enough for helping me choose my dress. Not only could I not decide but they helped me choose a dress I would never have picked and it ended up being the one. They responded to my emails promptly, as I live abroad and they always had time to fit me in when I flew home for fittings. They made the build up to the wedding even more exciting and I would love everyone to have this experience when shopping for their dress. Thanks a million girls xxx

Can't thank Finesse enough for all the help they gave with my dress. The fifth dress I put on me was the one I ended up going with and it was beautiful. It was a strapless but met with the girl who does their alterations and we were able to add a lovely halter strap. It was all so easy and pleasant. No hassles or dramas. It's easy see why they are in business this long as they clearly love what they do. Would definitely recommend them to others.

Are you sure?
This action cannot be undone
From day one, Liz and Mags were absolutely incredible. They were so helpful, warm, and supportive, and they continued to be there for me right up to the day of my wedding. Their professionalism and expertise are genuinely outstanding—they know exactly how to make a bride feel special and at ease.
Having an in-house seamstress is also a huge bonus and made the entire alteration process seamless and completely stress-free.
Thank you so much, ladies, for everything!
