Thank you very much for the incredible wedding dress! I felt like the absolute best version of myself and received many compliments thanks to you. I walked, drank and danced in it all day and night. I've never felt so amazing in my life and wished I could keep it on forever.
The dress journey was my favourite part of the wedding planning. The hardest decision I had to make was "which dress" because I loved so many. I'm glad to have gone with the made to measure option which allowed us to incorporate various elements of different dresses into the perfect dress for me! Drew and I are so glad to

Thank you to the Andrea Hawkes Bridal for the most incredible wedding dress and for making the experience of choosing and fitting a dress both straightforward and special at the same time.
I loved my wedding dress. It was simple, but also striking in a way that I have never seen before in a wedding dress. The quality of the silk was second to none, and it was so beautifully made.
The team at Andrea Hawkes are wonderful. Thank you especially to Siobhan for answering all my many questions and guiding me through the process of choosing and fitting my dress.

As soon as I walked through the Andrea Hawkes showroom front door I felt at ease. I had previously struggled to find a dress that I felt suited my personality. I usually dislike being the centre of attention, so found it hard to find a style I felt in which I felt like myself.
As like everybody, I have a few insecurities about my body. Siobhan was really understanding about my eczema and we talked about several options I could have including a jacket. In the end, I found it hard to decide which dress I wanted but finally made up my mind!
The whole process of making my dress was extremely smooth

Thank you to all the AHB team for creating my beautiful wedding dress! It was an absolute delight to wear. I really enjoyed the whole process with you - from choosing the dress, the fittings, and finally collecting the dress. From the first time I stepped into the bridal shop, I was thoroughly impressed with the quality of the silks (the gorgeous weight of the fabric and the way it moves when on) and the cleanliness of the dresses available to try on. Siobhan was excellent help - she assured me that you could make up a dress using a top from one dress and the skirt from another, which made my decision

I recently have bought and been married in an Andrea Hawkes dress and I cannot recommend them enough. The styles to choose from where classic with a modern touch. The whole team were amazing and helpful, with a huge shout out to Siobhan who guided me through the process and gave real and honest feedback when trying on the dresses! The quality of the garments are second to none and I felt truly amazing in it.

As soon as I walked in the door at Andrea Hawkes bridal boutique I knew that I would find my dress there. It was such a lovely, relaxed vibe in the store and Siobhan was so amazing as working out what you liked, didn’t like and to find solutions to get all the best bits into your dream dress. I bought the dress only a couple of months before moving home to New Zealand and nothing was a problem or a hassle in terms of getting it to NZ. When it arrived the dress was so gorgeous, the fabric, the way it moved, and it was so comfy! I chose to wear the dress on its own and then had a little lace T

I have had a wonderful experience at the Andrea Hawkes shop. Siobhan was absolutely lovely throughout the entire appointment. She welcomed me and my friend with a lot of patience and good advice and just made the whole experience stress free and enjoyable.
I have visited a few wedding dress shops and none of them have offered me the high level of customer experience I have received at Andrea Hawkes. Quite on the contrary I must say!
I highly recommend any future brides book an appointment at the shop and talk to Siobhan!

I was a little apprehensive about wedding-dress shopping: anxious about not being as thin as I'd like to be, terrified that I'd be sent away, and told that they couldn't cater for women with curvy bodies like me, but in reality the experience was completely delightful. Siobhan reassured me on every front, got me trying on dresses, pinning and making lots of suggestions and we had an idea within about half an hour.
All throughout the process I worked with Siobhan, Rebecca and Laurie, and they were extremely kind, professional and good humoured - even putting up with my two-year-old nephew who came

The AHB team are amazing! Andrea Hawkes was the first and only dress shop I went to, and they made the whole process so enjoyable and stress free. Their dresses are simply stunning, made from beautiful fabrics and with impeccable craftmanship. In the end the team worked on a bespoke top for me, and perfectly nailed my vision of 'bold & organic'! Their attention to detail was incredible - getting the pattern pieces from some difficult lace lined up symmetrically, with a sparser region carefully chosen for the neckline. It was a total dream getting my dress with them. I would recommend AHB to anyone
