    Excellent service and beautiful dress

    Abigail's were brilliant from the start. They had an online platform where I could choose dresses to try. Kelly was so accommodating to my mum on crutches that day and she could see straight away I had found the one. But it didn't stop there! When I went to collect the dress they made sure everything was as I wanted. The little touches of a phone call and card before the wedding were also so touching. Loved the experience from start to finish and the dress was stunning!

    The best experience of my life!

    As someone who works in the wedding industry myself, I was absolutely blown away with the service and experience at Abi's shop.

    The team of stylists made me feel so incredibly special, both in the lead-up to and on the day of my appointment. They showed such genuine interest in my wedding, my style and my dress hunt, which really set them apart from other shops I visited prior.

    The dresses they stock are *stunning* - and the prices are so reasonable.

    Thank you so much to Abi and the team. I'd recommend you to absolutely anyone!

    A no brainer for your wedding dress shopping

    I was initially quite nervous about shopping for my wedding dress as it’s rare that I like anything I try on the first time. But the whole process at Abigail’s put me so much at ease. From the start when booking the appointment and receiving a little surprise package in the post full of bridal goodies, the team are so personal and add little special touches throughout. I felt so at ease when shopping for my dress with lovely Rachel finding the perfect balance between hyping me up and being honest about the various gowns I tried on. I had a little wobble about the dress a few months later (thanks to a whole load of instagram scrolling) but the team were amazing and brought me in to try it on again which eased all of the anxiety I had built up. When I collected my gown and had alterations, there were a few minor details I was stressing about and again Abigail reached out with her reassuring and positive attitude and helped to make sure everything was sorted perfectly for me. I LOVED my dress on the day and it was the best choice I could have ever made. I’ll be forever grateful to the whole Abigail’s team for their patience, expertise and kindness. They are a must visit, when you’re shopping for your perfect wedding dress.

    Personal and Beautiful Dresses!

    We were welcomed as soon as we came in the door and guided into a private area which made the experience feel so personal. I shared the style of dress I had seen and tried on previously and the lovely girls found a few dresses that matched. I only tried a few on and found the one! The girls know their dresses and know what might suit, they listen to your style of wedding and try to match the right dress, which they certainly did with me!
    Thank you all!

    Dress shopping experience as a bridesmaid

    I attended a dress appointment at this shop as a bridesmaid and it was a wonderful experience! From the chilled fizz and sweets on arrival, to the kind and accommodating staff, nothing was too much trouble. Charlotte was a delight and made us feel right at home 💜 the collection of dresses was stunning too!

    Really Amazing

    They were amazing for every moment from booking my appointment to the day of the wedding. Above and beyond attention to detail.

    Dress of my dreams

    The team were absolutely lovely, and made the dress buying experience so much fun for my and my family. Even upon collection they were lovely! A great selection of dresses, too.

    My first tailored suit

    I had the best experience with at Abigail’s collection. We were greeted with beer and bubbly during the fitting which made it feel extra special. The team were incredibly accommodating and very LGBTQ+ friendly which was important for my groom’s party.
    I wanted tweed and a specific kind of green and was so happy with my Appleton suit. The team helped me to personalise my suit and stand out as a groom with the biscuit coloured waistcoat which was a really nice touch. Me and my groom’s party had loads of compliments and I couldn’t be happier with how everything went!

    So Good I Went Back!

    I'm a bridesmaid for two different brides - the first bride got her dress from this shop last year and I left a review at the time saying how much I loved the experience, and I went back again last week as a bridesmaid to another bride, after recommending it to her based on the amazing service.

    Again, we were blown away by the level of service, the care, the attention to detail. I cried when I saw my friend in her dress, she cried and even the stylist cried - a small thing but you could just tell how involved they were in her experience. It was so lovely, and I'll continue to recommend this wonderful shop to every couple I know.

    5* plus Abigail’s is a dream

    Wow wow wow! What can I say, the experience was everything I thought it would be and more from the start we got the warmest welcome. Charlotte was my consultant and she was amazing, we had a lovely chat before I started to pick some dresses, I told her my love for madi lane and she pulled the best dresses that were madi or similar style.
    The dress collection is so beautiful and each dress is so special, we never felt rushed for time once. Charlotte knew me better than I knew myself, she picked me the most stunning dress which I said yes to which was amazing! The whole team made me feel beautiful making such a fuss which made me feel amazing. The prosecco was delicious and the gift bag was a lovely touch full of lovely things, I cannot wait to go and pick my dress up soon and see the team again, best dress shop I’ve ever been to, wish I could do it all over again. For someone who knew about this shop before I was even engaged due to loving a designer they didn’t disappoint and exceeded my high expectations, Thank you to everyone
