I'm having the same problem. Edinburgh is not so good with plus size shops. Emma Roy claim to have a large selection in all sizes. If you go further afield then bathgate have a great shop called The Marriage Room http://scotlandweddings.squarespace.com/
Hope this helps

Also if your friend was happy travel out of Edinburgh Aliya Rose in Cupar have an excellent selection of Samples sizes. Cupar is about 60 min on the train from Edin.
I didnt go shopping to Emma Roy but i went with my cousin when i was her BM and they were vile.
A close friend of the family has a shop in montrose and she's got loads of dresses you'll be able to try on. I was a size 22 when i went up and tried on loads of stuff. Ok some of it didn't quite do up but it went on and she does have a lot of bigger sizes. |she is also fabulous at picking stuff to suit you, reasonably priced, plain spoken without being rude and a lovely lovely lady. I came up from kent to get my dress and my friend from northampton and neither of us had any complaints. She also has a lot of dresses.
Worth a trip I'd definitely recommend her - her names Maureen btw and the shop is brides unlimited in montrose.
Good luck with the hunting

I went to Aliya Rose in Cupar which is a bit out of the way but fabulous! also there was a place in Perth called La Beck and they had a big stock of plus size dresses.
I've just booked an appointment at The Marriage Room. If the customer service over the telephone is anything to go by then I'm going to have a fabby dress sess!!
I explained on the phone that I'm a plus size and she said 'we've just received 5 or 6 new plus size dresses' so yipee, I can't wait!!
Let us know how you got on!
Went to Marriage Rooms in Bathgate on Friday and had a wonderful time.
You get the large basement changing room all to yourself. The young girl that helped me was fantastic, really helpful and didn't make me feel self conscious of my size. There was a fairly large selection of dresses to try on but unfortunately I didn't find 'the one'.
I'd def recommend it though.

Hi, I live in edinburgh and didn't even attempt to visit any the shops, one of my friends got married a few years ago and she had a choice of two ill fitting plus size dresses!! I'm getting my dress from beau belles in phillipstoun, near linlithgow, but there is also rubenesque bridals at polkemmet park justb outside whitburn which caters exclusively for the size 16+ bride, as does beau belles and they are happyn to alter dress designs, i am having a layer of organza put in mine where there is a split in the dress to show a extra layer and this is being done at no extra cost. The dresses are all made to measure too.
