Dress up bride, more excited (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

embroider

'dress up' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'bride more excited' is the wordplay.
'excited' indicates an anagram.
'bride'+'more'='bridemore'
'bridemore' with letters rearranged gives 'EMBROIDER'.

(Other definitions for embroider that I've seen before include "Sew; embellish" , "Elaborately sew" , "Ornament with needlework" , "Do decorative needlework" , "stitch" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
