After Five
OVERVIEW
At After Five Bridal, we believe finding your wedding dress should feel just as special as the day you wear it. Our entire team is here to make sure your bridal journey is nothing short of joyful, stress-free, and totally unforgettable. Seeing your vision come together is our favourite part of the journey.
From the moment you arrive, our focus is entirely on you. Our private, one-on-one appointments are designed to feel calm, considered, and genuinely personal. You’ll be assisted by an experienced stylist who takes the time to understand your vision, your style, and how you want to feel. Your stylist then walks you through a curated selection of gowns that truly align to your vision, without the overwhelm.
Our boutique experience is relaxed but refined. Think beautiful, thoughtfully curated gowns. A space designed for you to take it all in, and an atmosphere that feels warm, welcoming, and quietly special. No pressure, no chaos. Just the right energy to help you make a confident and clear decision.
“I said yes to the dress! I went in for my first ever bridal appointment, nervous, excited, no idea what styles I wanted, not even expecting to buy a dress today. My stylist was absolutely amazing, she guided me through styles that would suit my shape and budget, and made the whole process fun and comfortable. The boutique is gorgeous and the team welcomed us with delicious drinks while we browsed their stunning selection.
Thank you so much to the team at After Five, I can't wait for the big day” - Taylah Bride-to-Be

FAQ
We recommend starting your dress shopping journey 9–12 months before your wedding. This allows time for ordering (typically 6–8 months) and any alterations or final fittings, so everything is perfect and stress-free for your big day.
When you arrive, make yourself at home, relax in our stylish lounge and browse our gowns. After check-in, your consultant will introduce herself and guide you to a private room. You’ll share your dream dress ideas and get an overview of the appointment. Then, we’ll pop the bubbles and start trying on gowns! You’ll choose dresses with help from your friends and our expert team. Just bring an open mind, positive vibes, and your crew ready to enjoy the experience!
A trunk show is a special event at a bridal boutique where a designer's collection is showcased for a limited period. These events often feature new or unique styles that aren't always available at the boutique. Special discounts are usually offered during trunk shows, making it an excellent opportunity to find your perfect gown.
For upcoming trunk shows, visit our Trunk Show page and book an appointment with the hosting boutique.
Ready-to-wear gowns are pre-designed and made in standard sizes, available to try on and buy with minimal wait or alterations. They offer a quicker, often more affordable option than custom dresses, perfect for last-minute events or those who want to see the gown before committing.
Our wedding dresses range from $1,000 to $5,000, with options to suit a variety of styles and budgets. Formalwear starts at $280 and goes up to $2,000. We offer a curated selection that balances quality, style, and value, so you can find the perfect dress without the stress.
Visit our modern boutique just a stone’s throw from Brisbane’s CBD at 1/130 Kingston Road, Underwood QLD 4119. Try on your favourites in a relaxed, welcoming space with expert help every step of the way.
Made-to-order gowns are created after you place your order, based on your chosen style and size. They often allow small customisations, like sleeves or fabric changes depending on the designer. While not fully custom, they offer a more personal fit and require a longer lead time than ready-to-wear.
No worries! We have a small collection of ready-to-wear gowns and samples available for immediate purchase. Perfect for brides on a tight timeline who still want a beautiful dress without the wait.
We offer the following payment options:
If you have any questions about setting up a lay-by plan, feel free to contact us!
Bridal sample dresses typically range between sizes 4-24 and can be ordered up to size 30. Our stylists use professional fitting techniques so every bride can visualise the final fit.
