The Wedding Dress 'A Team'
Weddings are our business and our focus is our Customers and their wedding day! We like to think of ourselves as a friendly, fun, professional and welcoming team. We take pride in what we do; the relationships and friendships that we build with customers and the special VIP wedding shop service that we offer. Our gowns and products are absolutely fabulous and we think our A-team of Stylists is pretty special too!

Our gorgeous team is headed up by Husband and Wife duo Abigail and Robert Neill who (in 2025) celebrated their 20th year of marriage. We are so fortunate to have a really passionate and dedicated team which we nickname the A-Team … The A team of Bridal Stylists includes Abigail, Ciara, Sophie, Rachael and Kelly. Alongside our amazing support team as well as the Menswear team of Stylists we strive to provide the ultimate in Bridal and Menswear customer service and we’re very proud of our multi award winning wedding shop and menswear business. The many accolades that we have won over the years (31 amazing awards) have been because of our brilliant team of Stylists of whom we are extremely proud! Here’s a bit about more about everyone….
In 2025 we were awarded the enviable title of ‘UK Best Customer Service of the Year’ at the Oscars of our industry (The Bridal Buyer awards) and in 2024 we won the UK title of ‘Best UK Longstanding Bridal Retailer’.
These accolades have been won because of our amazing team of Stylists of whom we are extremely proud.

Sophie
With her ‘can do’ positive approach our Sophie is absolute gold and will always go the extra mile. Sophie is friendly, warm and happy and we quite simply love her! She’s petite in stature but she makes a big impact on everyone she meets! Her styling is second to none and she knows exactly how to help Brides find the one that will suit and get the very best of them. Sophie is lovely with a reassuring and genuinely kind nature. If Sophie is your Stylist you are guaranteed a really beautiful and memorable appointment.

Kelly
Known as the Queen of organisation our Kelly will laugh, cry or chill with you! Kelly will be just what you need when you need it! Kelly styles her Brides with passion and enthusiasm and always connects so genuinely with who she meets. Her down to earth but bubbly personality means that we all love to be around Kelly and that Brides love her too. Popular and reliable we love our Kelly and she absolutely loves the world of bridal. If Kelly is your Stylist you will have a lot of fun and no doubt find the gown of your dreams.

Rachael
Our Rachael is absolutely gorgeous. She has such a ‘can do’ and naturally positive personality, she’s very likeable, reassuring and calm but also oozes enthusiasm and warmth. She's great fun to be around, she supports, encourages and enthuses. If Rachael is your Stylist she will ensure you have the time of your life and feel and look a million dollars.

Ciara
Ciara joins us as Bridal Manager with a plethora of fabulous retail management experience! She’s super friendly, upbeat, energetic, positive and a true romantic at heart.
