A massive thank you, Roxy did my appointment and we got on like a house on fire! She listened to what I wanted and was able to suggest styles I hadn't thought of. I'm getting married quite soon and in other places I'd been made to feel pressured into making a decision. Here they weren't fazed and it was so relaxed.

Where do I start with house of Oliver 🤔 ... They were fine when it came to my wedding dress - no problems there.
The bridesmaid dress sizes are really weird.i think they are made in China.
We went to get flower girl dresses in January. They told me to leave it till 8weeks before the wedding as we didnt know who was going to have a growth spurt so I took them mid Jan. Ordered some lovely long straight dresses as I didnt want poofy ballerina ones as my eldest flower girl is nearly 11. They told me the dresses weren't going to come with sashes so i got material to have the sashes made.The dresses

Awful experience ordering bridesmaids dresses form here. They took 21 !!! Weeks to arrive, 1 came with a pull in the front of the skirt, however being just 10 weeks before my wedding there was no time to order another! And all the tags were cut out so I now have no care instructions/size labels in the dresses! The communication between myself and the shop left alot to be desired, I had to constantly message for a response and most responses were not answering my questions. When I did finally get through to speak to the owner, I feel she did not really care about my situation or that fact it took

Awful experience while looking for a dress here for my friend. No communication and was left to our own devices to do a our own thing. My friend wasn't even helped into the dresses after asking for help, wouldn't recommend. Few dresses had stained on and looked quite worn. Wouldnt even give them 1 star.

Where to begin?! I bought my dress here just under a year before my wedding, including a veil and a lace jacket to cover my arms. The first experience I had when doing so was great I got my dress, no problem - to begin with! My dress was ready to take home the following week but I was told my veil and jacket would take longer as they are made to order. So that was fine by me. At the time of purchase the shop had a special offer running where with the purchase of your dress you got three free bridesmaids dresses so we opted for this as why wouldn’t you? They also told us they did suit hire for

A lovely wedding dress shop, lots of variety, extremely knowledgeable and helpful staff. The changing rooms are really spacious and private. Nothing is too much trouble. Highly recommend to anyone looking for their dream wedding dress, bridesmaids dresses or suit hire. Everything needed to dress for your wedding is all under one roof. Really impressed.

Wouldn't even give them one star if I could!
We went to the store on Saturday 3rd November 2018 and my size 14 friend who was trying on wedding dresses was told to go to a PLUS SIZE wedding dress shop?
She has the most amazing hourglass figure and definitely isn't plus size!
The comments completely ruined her dress shopping experience! House Of Oliver should be utterly ashamed of themselves.
I'm only posting on her behalf because she's still completely devastated by the comments made to her, that she cant bring herself to do it!

Staff are so friendly and welcoming. From the moment we step foot in me and my friends were treated like the only ones in the store. Felt very relaxed, they have gorgous dresses and had a good laugh too. And when i wasn't sure if I'd made the right choice dress, they got me an appointment in quickly and wern't pushy to get a sale. Absolutely love my dress and the experience at house of oliver made it even more memorable. Definately recommend with out a doubt.

Kate and her team at House of Oliver are wonderful! They have a great selection of dresses and are really patient and down to earth in the process (making a good cuppa!). The new shop is beautiful and spacious with luxurious dressing rooms. I got my bridesmaid dresses from here and couldn't be happier with the service.
