Do I need to book an appointment? Yes, Cindy Bam offers private appointments to provide a dedicated, professional and personal dress shopping experience. Your appointment will be 60 minutes. We find this is more than enough time to discuss your gown. The consultation takes place at her studio in Loop Street, in the heart of Cape Town, where we also manufacture from. To allow Cindy Bam to give you her undivided attention, please schedule an appointment. Tel: 021 422-4796 #cindybambride Our lovely bride: Rouvé Maartens Jana Marnewick Photography
