Stayed at Gwo Shiuan hotel for 3 nights when we were at Taipei.
The hotel is really near to the Bluebay bridal studio, and it's not too expensive. I managed to book 3 nights for less than 4000TWD.
Get down at Shuang Lian Station (Exit 2) and walk past the hospital. Once you reach bluebay, continue walking straight and turn right at the junction when you see a church. It's around 30m away from the church.
When we touched down, we walked to Shuang Lian station since it was super early at 6am. We went to the hotel, put down our luggage and explored the area. Bluebay opens at 10am, so we were their first customers (and they were quite nice abt it, seeing that our time slot was actually 1pm.)
I took around 1/2 hours to choose the gowns?

Sorry for the pictures. Somehow, I can't manage to turn it in the correct direction.
I was hoping to get more photos of the selection of the gowns, but Xiao Jia, the person who was helping me to choose the gowns, said that she could only let me take the pictures of the gowns that I chose. Was quite a little disappointed with it as some of the reviewers actually managed to take more photos of the place.
I tried on probably like 8-9 gowns before I chose the 5 that was shown here. The gowns are quite pretty but most of them are suited for a smaller sized lady! (And I don't think I am exactly very big sized either! I'm a UK8-10?) The blue and white gown was probably meant to be for a UK4-6 female wear cuz Xiao Jia has to help to clip it on with the extra clips when I tried it on.
Selection of gowns experience:
It was tiring to keep changing in and out of the gowns. I hate trying on clothes so it was a hassle to me.
Xiao Jia is actually quite patient but the no photography besides the 5 gowns turned me off quite a bit.
Then for the guy's suits...
It's actually on a different level with the female gown selection place.
They gave a black and white suit, with four different patterns.
For the next day, we reached bluebay at 8am, and my MUA was Jia Ning. It seems that she is a very popular MUA and she had schedules for the whole of that week! She was having a cold on that day but still very dedicated in her work.
We brought along our ampoules but she firmly insisted on using the bridal ones that she provides as she cannot guarantee that the one that we have can make the makeup stay on for the whole day. We ended up giving in as I didn't want to spoil the whole mood (She spent a lot of time explaining to us why hers is better) and I was kind of afraid that she will make the hairdo/makeup weird or ugly because we don't buy it from her. So, we got the 6 bottles of ampoules for 3000TWD. 4 for myself and 2 for PL.
But I must admit that her skills are good! The hairdos and the makeup is really pretty! I can't recognise myself after the makeup!

Suddenly I have double eyelids and long lashes!
Makeup/hairdo experience:
It was seriously good. The only complaint that I have is the Jianing didn't redo the makeup on my shoulder and chest area, but I think it isn't really noticeable in the photos (I hope)
