Any reproduction of peoples comments are generally treated with caution, and rightly so, as it is a simple task to make almost anything up!
All we can say is...... These are Genuine, we have no need to make then up. We find that referrals from happy brides provide a vast proportion of new clients, and rely on our reputation to support it. We include them as a way of saying thank you, and because many highlight important aspects of planning your special day. If you do not use our services, OK, but do remember to ask key questions when you check out any other service, in light of the comments included here. And always give yourself a couple of days to think about the gown, rarely is that 'special offer today only' as good as it appears.

Beth,
Just a little note to thank you for all of your help with my beautiful wedding
dress. You were so attentive when we first walked into the shop, and everytime
we've been in since, you have been the same. It made choosing the dress so
easy, and all of the help and advice you have given was very much appreciated.
I have, and will continue to recommend you to any brides, as they will always
get 5 star service.
Many thanks again. Love Annie (Bride)

everyone commented on how good they were. You helped make my day so special. I
can't thank you enough……
Lots of Love, Rachael (Bride)
Dear Beth,
Thank you so much for all of your help in finding the perfect wedding dress! I
so enjoyed all of my trips to see you in your shop and you managed to find me
such a beautiful dress for a bargain price too! I had so many comments on
everything you found me, the dress (of course!), veil, tiara and even earrings
and little bag. I have recommended you to all of my Island girls so you may get
some of my friends in in the future! My bridesmaids looked stunning and all of
our dresses fitted us perfectly.
I had such a lovely wedding and the dress is such a huge part of it so thank
you very very much for finding it for me!
Hope to see you again soon,
With Love, Danielle xx (Bride)
Dear Beth
Thank you so much for helping to make our wedding day so wonderful.
From helping me pick the most luscious dress, to the wonderful accessories and
the amazing flowers, you helped me feel a million dollars on the day and made
my husband's jaw drop when I walked down the aisle!
Thank you for being so welcoming and above all for being enthusiastic about in having a dress that was a bit different. I would recommend you to anyone whether they wanted something different or more traditional.
I had so many compliments on the dress, especially as it was that little bit different, but also the gorgeous Jewellery (I'll be popping in next time I'm on the IW to check out what lovely sparkly things you have!), the devine Latino jacket and the sparkly veil (which even the men were complementing me on!!)
The top of the dress and accessories you helped me put together, the flowers
were absolutely perfect! When I saw them, they brought a tear to my eye. Both
mine and my bridesmaid's bouquets were stunning and you did a fabulous job!
They looked great and finished the outfits off perfectly, as did the simple,
but elegant buttonholes.
Thank you so much for being part of our special day and making my search for a
red dress so enjoyable! I would recommend you services to anyone getting
married - you really made it enjoyable and really gorgeous!!
Love and best wishes, Claire + Adam (Bride & Groom)
Beth,
Thank you so much for all your help with my totally gorgeous dress - I've never
had so many compliments!
All the accessories worked perfectly together - I didn't take anything off all
day (including the veil - ooppss!!)
The flowers were fabulous, much admired, even by the staff at the 'Rose Bowl'
Thanks again for everything
Lots of Love Caroline & Matthew (Bride & Groom ~ Southampton)
To Dear Beth,
Just a little to say thank you so much for all your hard work for our wedding.
All I could say on our special day was WOW!! Right from the first day I walked
in your shop you made me feel so special and so important. This made our
planning all the more exciting. In the year over we worked together you were so
friendly and nothing was too much effort for us.
You truly are a star and know your job so well, from picking out 'My Dress' to
the finer details in my just spectacular bouquet.
Thank you so much Beth for my beautiful attire from veil to shoes. I felt a
princess walking down the aisle. Cat looked just stunning, we complemented each
other just perfectly...... ......
Once again Beth, thank you so much, to both you and hubby.....
All my love Tamsin ( Bride )
If anyone deserves to be in business its you!
From the moment I came to your bridal studio you made me feel a million
dollars. My daughters Lisa, Emily & Melanie also sent there thanks to you
for the choice of their beautiful gowns.
My day will be beautiful with thanks to you. A true business woman, but also a
great friend !!
With very special thanks Beth!
You have been the very best support a bride needs!
Will send you a nice Photo of the days events after the honeymoon.
Again Thank you.
Denise (Bride)
Dear Beth,
Well, you did it again! We all knew you would create something
wonderfull with Jo’s dress and flowers but you still managed to surpass
all of our expectations. The gown was absolutely stunning in a simple, classic
style - very difficult to achieve.
The Marquee was just breathtaking. I am only sorry that you weren’t able
to hear all the comments and compliments yourself. You and Alex did a sterling
job and it was so nice to have your company. You held it all together for us.
Thank you very, very much, Love Ann
PS Wonderful attention to detail. You don’t miss a thing Beth. I shed a
tear when I saw the cake Knife!
Mother of the Bride

Dear Beth
Thankyou so much for the wonderful help you gave me.
As an older lady I came into your shop so concerned that you would consider me
to old to wear a wedding dress. How wrong I was. You were so understanding and
sensitive to my concerns.
From a wonderful selection we chose a beautiful gown that made me feel so
special and most of all confident on the day.
Joanne S. ( Bride )
Dear Beth,
Just a little note to thank you so very much for the dedication
and supreme help you gave to me in arrainging my beautiful wedding gown.
It was so wonderful to work with someone who understood exactly what I was
looking for.
You arranged everything perfectly and I will give everyone that
I know who is getting married your details. I just wish I could have met you.
I hope you like the chocolates, what else could I send from Switzerland, except
cheese (yeuw!!!)
I will send you a photograph when we get married in December,
until then, thank you ageain you really have made me so happy.
With much love.
Amanda (Unterageri, Switzerland)
Dear Beth, Thank you so much for all your help & skill that made our wedding day perfect. Everyone commented on how beautiful my dress was and really felt special in it. The flowers were beautiful and really made the reception tables look wonderful. I will not hesitate to recommend your services. Also could you pass my thanks to Clair (hair)........
Tania & Lee
Dear Beth, I just wanted to write and thank you very much indeed for all your help with my and Darrel's wedding. I was absolutely thrilled with my dress and felt like a princess in it all day long. The veil went so well with it, and I was very grateful that you had suggested (and of course made!) the fuller tiara which matched my dress, veil and hairstyle perfectly. I received so many compliments on the day and, most importantly, Darrel loved it too and thought it very elegant.
Thank you too for the bridesmaids' dresses which complimented mine so beautifully. The three girls looked gorgeous on the day and both they and I received many compliments about their gowns too.
The flowers that you did were simply perfect. You captured exactly what I was looking for and Darrel will tell you that I did not want to be separated from my bouquet! The reception flowers were beautiful and both Mums enjoyed them afterwards…….
……You made the organisation of my wedding much more enjoyable and it was good to have your expertise in co-ordinating my gown with those of the bridesmaids and in co-ordinating all the accessories and flowers besides….
Laura (Cowes, Isle of Wight)
Dear Beth, Firstly, let me apologise for the delay in writing to you, I do not know where the last three months have gone. Nobody said married life would be so hectic!!!! I hope you are well and business is booming. What can I say, our day was perfect, in every way, it went beyond out expectations and that was mainly down to the wonderful service that you provided.
You made the build up and the day itself run so smoothly. Our meetings were such a pleasure and with your help and guidance, you made my dreams come to life. The flower displays, along with the all the other flowers, were wonderful, especially my bouquet. The choice of flowers and the arrangements themselves were outstanding, and I can't wait until my bouquet comes back from being preserved, as it will be something to treasure.
My dress, tiara and veil were all exquisite and so unique, it made me feel like a true princess for the whole day. Steve still says, how stunning I looked and that means an awful lot to me, as you and Claire worked very hard to create that final image……
….. We have wonderful memories that you helped create and that will stay with us for many, many years to come…… Take care Beth and thank you once again, for everything.
Michelle (Greenhithe, Kent)
Dear Beth, I would like to thank you very much
indeed for designing my wedding dress and the tiara that went so well together.
The flowers you did for on the day were really gorgeous, from button holes to
the pedestal, all of them looked really great. I would also like to thank you
and Claire for the make up and the hair, it looked gorgeous and I felt like a
princess for one day.
Thanks again.
Heidi (Hertfordshire.)
Dear Beth, Well, Where do I start, thank-you would't really cover everything that you have helped me achieve with both the wedding and the blessing. I feel lucky to have enjoyed all the organising and prepration that goes along with a wedding rather than stress and worry. All your advice + friendship is something that I will always treasure. The dress's were everything and more than I would have hoped for. The flowers for the blessing were amazing and created the effect that I wanted. I truly felt relaxed about the quality and service that E.S.Bridal provided. I was lucky enough to enjoy the wedding in Sri-Lanka and the blessing here on the I.O.W. everything I couldn't have in Sri-Lanka you provided for me here and vis-versa. I realy had the best of both worlds......
Kate
Dear Beth, Thank you very much indeed for all of the work that you did to make Kate's wedding and Blessing so wonderful. From the dresses to the flowers, everything was prefect. Please convey our thanks to Claire for the great hairstyles......
Gill (Kate's Mum)
To Beth, Claire and other staff. Thank you for everything you've done. the dresses, flowers, tiara, boys waistcoats, our hair and make up was great. Everyone said how lovely we looked, including the mother-in-law. Everyone was so impressed with all the work. It gave me so much confidence all day. I was on such a high I didn't need anything to give me the lift and buzz. I loved every minute, I was so relaxed, there were no nerves at all. It was so nice being spoilt and looked after so well. Thanks once again.
Sheila
Dear Beth, Thank you very much for the beautiful flowers that you did for my wedding. The pedestal arrangement was magnificent and I am pleased now that it was in silk as it is lovely to have something to keep after the fresh flowers have died - it would have been heartbreaking to throw it away! The bouquets were beautiful and the table arrangements were just right.
Thank you also for the gorgeous tiara you made, everyone commented on how lovely it was and it felt so much more special to wear than a flower arrangement similar to my bridesmaids. It now has pride of place in my display cabinet at home.
I also would like to thank you for the professional and yet relaxed way in which you organised everything, I never had a moments doubt that everything would be ready for the day or about the exact arrangements for the delivery of the flowers.
Paula
Dear Beth, I would like to say a very big thank you from both Chris and myself, for all your hard work to make our wedding day special. Both mine and Sam's dresses were wonderful the georgette wrap was also very special as was my tiara. A big thank you for making me look so good on the day....
Would you please pass on my thanks to Clare for doing such a great job on both our hair. The photo's were very good although I don't have them in an album yet. However I will send you some when I get them back. Thank you once again for all your hard work.
Carolyn
To Beth, Debbie & Claire ( and anyone I have missed out) . Thank you for all your hard work. You made the day 'stress free' and extremely enjoyable. The dress was perfect, the service was outstanding and your professionalism was impeccable. George and I thank-you from the bottom of our hearts.
Hermione
Dear Beth, Just wanted to write and say a big thank you for all your hard work and support for our wedding on 4th July.
You managed to create the dress of my dreams, despite the fact I didn't have a clue at the beginning as to what that actually was! You captured early on that I didn't want a merange, flancy and frilly, but elegant, simple and beautiful, and that's exactly what I got. Your patience, advice, support and creativity was endless - and your cats are lovely too!......
......and as for the tiara! What can I say? Spot on - exactly what I wanted, I didn't take it of until I got to the hotel at 1am!
Katie
To Beth, Just a quick note from Malaysia to say thank you for all you did towards our wedding. It was a brilliant day, I really enjoyed it. Everyone commented on how lovely the flowers were.
You made the wedding go smoothly - I couldn't have done it without you. Just one thing you forgot - you didn't stop my dad getting drunk !!!
Petra
Dear Beth..... delighted with the dress, and its elegant simplicity was an ideal foil to all the kilts and much admired. Thank you.
Elly
Thank you for making my day so special by thinking of every detail with the dress, make-up and hair.....
......I received lots of compliments on the dress....
Naomei
Dear Beth, Just to say a big thank you to you and your team for all that you did to make Anna & Ross' wedding such a huge success. We all had the most wonderful day, so happy, with Anna, of course, looking absolutely stunning ( even managed to compete with Ross in his kilt!! ).
After two weddings I have concluded that my tip for a stress free wedding, which both were, is to use people you know you can depend on. We had every confidence in you and you certainly fulfilled that confidence, what is more, you made us feel as though ours was the most important wedding to you when we know you are doing them all the time, a great gift...... Again many thanks to you and to Debbie & Claire.
Hilary (Brides Mum)
Dear Beth and your team, Alan and I would like to thank you so much for all the wonderful work you've done for our wedding. You made the whole process of planning my wedding so enjoyable and stress-free.
The dress was made beautifully for me - everyone commented on how great it looked ( just how you said they would ). Every last detail, from the flowers to the tiaras looked fabulous. Claire did a great job of mine and Jade's hair, as did you with my make-up.......
Thank you once again Beth, I shall be sure to recommend your services to all my friends. ( Who , by the way, all want my dress! )
Louise
Dear Beth, Just a short note to thank you for making my wedding dress. Lots of people on our wedding day commented on how lovely and beautifully made it was, and my dress fitted me like a glove.....
Kay
Dear Beth, Please find enclosed a photograph of our wedding. Sorry it has taken me so long. I chose this one because it shows off the flowers and the dresses, its a shame the bridegroom is missing! Thank-you for all your hard work, we had a wonderful day. Best Wishes.
Sheila
Dear Beth, Just a note to say thank you ever so much for everything you did for our wedding on Friday 2nd. The dress was beautiful. Virtually everyone commented on it and even my dad thought it was worth every penny!
Everyone raved about the bouquets, and the flowers in general...... Holly in particular, really enjoyed having her make-up done. It was great just to have you there in the morning to keep us all sane! Alex was a great help too. I would recommend you to anybody. Thank you again.
Sylvina
Dear Beth...... We had a super day, everything went so well. I was so pleased with all the expert advice you gave me. You helped me achieve the look I wanted; dress, hair, shoes, make-up, tiara and flowers. Thanks also from bridesmaid Lucy who looked lovely in her dress & had matching flowers.....
