I felt a little less polished than the models in the photos, but that's completely understandable—I’m much shorter and was likely further along in my pregnancy. Even so, this dress exceeded all my expectations. The quality was outstanding, and any wrinkles steamed out effortlessly just by hanging it in the bathroom during a few hot showers.
Overall, I would give this dress a 10/10. It was comfortable, beautiful, and made me feel special during such a meaningful time.
A huge thank you to Blue Rose Photography for capturing such a beautiful moment in our pregnancy journey, and to Mama Rentals for providing the perfect outfit for the occasion. I couldn't be happier with the result! 💕
Mama Rentals was customer focused, responsive, provided quick turnaround times on supply and offered a simple yet effective business model. The dress arrived within days of the order, was as per the website and it felt very special having a one of a kind dress to capture a special moment in time. I am 164cm in height, 73kg and 35 weeks pregnant in this photo - ordered a large (size 12). I ordered the slip but did not wear this as the dress is low cut and would have show the slip. Thank you Mama Rentals.
Silly me never read the reviews in the first place and as a big boobie lady of course the chest was tight but not Ganna lie, it made those bad boys look pretty good hehe. Absolutely gorgeous dress and couldn't fault the service. Will definitely recommend and use again in the future ❤️ thanks ladies brilliant work all around 👏
I fell in love with this dress for my maternity photoshoot as soon as I saw it on the website! I hesitated to order it at first because I wanted some belly out shots and knew a button down dress would be better, but I'm so glad I went ahead - it was absolutely perfect! Pre-pregnancy I was a size S and so upsized to M, however, I could have gone to a L because it was still a little tight across the chest. I ended up wearing it unbuttoned and off-shoulder for most of the shoot and loved the way it showed up in photos. I needed my dress for a Saturday and had to ask Alice about the best time to order/return because of the public holiday. She was so responsive and helpful and in the end I received the dress well before I needed it.
Ordered a M to size up for my bust area & it was perfect. Dress came fast and was in perfect condition & when I had questions regarding the rental Alice was super quick to come back and help out. Will definitely Mamarentals for future hiring needs!
When I wore this dress, I really did feel divine and angelic (so cheesy, I know hahahahah). Practical things: I wore this dress at 31 weeks pregnant (people love to tell me I’m still so small (cue eye roll), I am 155cm and at this point in time, 70kgs. I normally wear a size small (8/10), but sizes up to a medium upon the recommendation of others. It was a good call because I have quite broad shoulders and I felt that unless you wore the dress unclasped and off the shoulders, it felt a bit tight. I just wish my boobs had grown as much as my belly did hahah. The dress, nature, act of growing life/ stepping into motherhood was captured so beautifully by our photographer.
Hired this dress for my maternity shoot. Was lovely and photographs really well. The only issue was it fit everywhere but across my chest, which is odd since I am only a C cup max, and I got the largest size to cover my bump. Overall the photos came out really well, my favourites are just from the side where you can see the arm detail and not so much of how open it is at the front. Would recommend!
So happy to have come across Mama Rentals! Instead of buying a dress I potentially wouldn't wear again, I was able to hire the perfect dress for my maternity photoshoot and the process was so easy!! I hired the Sacred Bundle Tallulah Maxi Dress in a small which is one size bigger than usual and the fit was great. It arrived days before I needed it and the the included return satchel, made returning the dress so simple. Highly recommend!!
Wore this dress for my maternity Photoshoot. I’m normally a size 8-10 and got a size small, but it didn’t fit around my boobs so was able to swap it for a medium which was great. I underestimated how much my boobs have grown this pregnancy! The dress was in beautiful condition and looked amazing in my maternity shots. I’m so happy I rented this dress, looks beautiful on the beach!
Loved this dress! Found your site via my photographer. This was perfect for my maternity shoot. Love how the sunlight peeks through the lace. Just stunning!
The overall experience was such a delight. The communication from Alice was phenomenal. I received the dress in record time, with no stress wondering if it would arrive in time for my shoot. The dress was amazing quality and I felt so pretty wearing it. Would 100% recommend 🤍
The whole process was so easy from start to finish. I did get a size up as recommended by previous reviews and the dress fit perfectly! Would use this service again :)
I loved this dress and it was nice and heavy not thin material at all. My photographer loved this dress as well.
Absolutely loved this dress. My photos turned out so beautiful. The process was super easy, the dress came several days before my shoot and It was really easy to ship it back. I would definitely use mama rentals again!
