Atousa and Irena started The Sposa Group boutiques with an aim to provide the best service to their very deserving brides across Australia. Their goal was to bring the latest wedding designs to their local community and provide brides with the best and most supportive gown selection experience they could have.
Atousa was working in another industry when she started exploring bridal. From there, her passion grew exponentially as she started to become interested in different designs. Atousa began toying with the idea of what could be done to make it easier for brides to find their dream gown and what she could do personally to help. From these initial thoughts, The Sposa Group was born.

All About Finding the one; From the Dress to the Makeup to the Accessories!
Finding the perfect gown is a momentous occasion for any bride. At Sposa, the dedicated team ensure that they support their brides throughout this special process. When trying on dresses, Atousa advises that brides should be open to trying on different styles before narrowing it down to their favourites. It is also best to keep the dress shopping between two to three boutiques and then choose the boutique that provided you the best service where you felt most comfortable with your consultant. “When a bride tries on THE ONE, you can see the absolute joy and twinkle in their eyes.” Atousa also believes that the makeup look is a very personal choice and differs between each bride. In her eyes, there are no rules when it comes to the makeup and each bride should choose a look that makes them feel their best. Accesorising with a crown is also an absolute MUST, as this will elevate any bridal look.
The Trends
In terms of wedding dress trends, Atousa describes that she has seen a lot of simple gowns with minimal embellishment in 2023. However, this is now slowly changing again to more embellished styles. This trend shift is reflected by the introduction of pearls in her latest collections. Although fitted silhouettes are making a strong comeback, Atousa expresses that ball gowns are very much her favourite dress style and silhouette.
Current Events and Future Plans
For the remainder of 2023, The Sposa Group team aim to continue offering a unique and bespoke wedding dress service to brides across Australia. Over the past five years, The Sposa Group have also hosted many beautiful events to launch their new collections, a special way for current and future brides to get a get a glimpse into what their dream dress could potentially look like.
An ongoing event that no bride-to-be should miss is the regular VIP nights held on Wednesday nights from 6 to 9 pm at the lovely Sposa boutique in Hawthorn, Victoria. This decadent experience involves exclusive access of the boutique for the bride and her guests for the duration of two hours. Throughout this experience, they are served canapes and champagne with the option to upgrade to French champagne for that extra special touch.
