    I had a lovely experience at Ava Rose Hamilton, Colne & found my dream dress with Ava. I couldnt thank Ava enough for being so amazing & putting my nerves at ease. Only having a baby 7 weeks ago & being plus size anyways, i was very nervous about trying dresses on but Ava was just so friendly & made me feel like so special. The shop is absolutely stunning with beautiful private dressing room, with so many extra touches that add for both brides & guests. I would HIGHLY recommend to any bride! xox

    I had the most wonderful experience at Ava Rose Hamilton in Colne! From the moment I walked in, I felt so welcomed and at ease. The boutique itself is absolutely beautiful, with such a calming atmosphere that made dress shopping feel really special. A huge thank you to Grace, who was absolutely amazing throughout my appointment. She was incredibly kind, patient, and truly listened to what I was looking for. Her attention to detail was second to none — she picked out dresses that suited my style perfectly and made thoughtful suggestions that I never would have considered on my own, but ended up loving! Grace made the whole experience so personal and enjoyable, and I left feeling excited, confident, and totally looked after. I can’t recommend Ava Rose Hamilton enough — especially if you’re lucky enough to have Grace helping you!

    I recently purchased my dream dress from Ava Rose Off The Peg, and the lovely Gemma helped me during my appointment. She listened to everything I was looking for and let us look at all the dresses to pick out any that I wanted to try on. Gemma also recommended similar dresses, and advised how I could adjust the dress during alterations to make it fit perfectly. I highly recommend Gemma and the team to anyone looking to find a dress, especially if you’re nervous or it’s your first time trying dresses on - I couldn’t have been more comfortable and at ease. Thank you! 🩷
