An award-winning bridal business will open its new city centre store next week.

Pure Brides will open in its new Castle House home on Thursday, March 7, five days later than originally planned.

The brand, now incorporating Pure Suit Hire, has moved to the new store opposite Norwich Castle in Castle Meadow, as part of an expansion from its former Lower Goat Lane premises, where it has been based since 2012.

Anna Hare, who founded Pure in 2005, said: "We're a little bit behind and planned to open on Saturday.

"We'll be opening a few days later on Tuesday, March 7.

"It's really coming together really well and we're excited to open.

"We closed in Lower Goat Lane on Thursday and have had a week to move everything over as well as a wedding show at the weekend.

"It's amazing to see how much progress can be made in one day.

"We're so close to being ready, but we've made a decision to delay by a few days."
