My role in the business has evolved over time, with my focus now concentrated on production and working day to day with the studio team, alongside working on the wider business vision."

Sophie - Senior Seamstress and Production Co-Ordinator

"I love my creative role here as a seamstress at Andrea Hawkes, making and altering our brides dresses and bringing their dress to life! It's such a lovely feeling being part of their special day and we get so much joy from seeing their photos in the dress on their wedding day! One of my favourite parts of the job is working on some of the more intricate details that we do carefully by hand. From lace applique, to hand making our own buttons for the perfect finishing touch!

Outside of AH I enjoy spending my time outside in nature, going for long walks and I love to travel and explore new places."

"I love that pattern cutting can be a challenge, every client has different requirements and body shape and that really motivates me. Andrea is a fresh and innovative designer and it’s great working with her on new collection dresses.

In my spare time I like to design and weave fabric. I also have a passion for horses, although I no longer have one of my own, I volunteer for the Riding for the disabled association"

It's an absolute pleasure working with beautiful fabrics and bringing our brides ideas into reality"

"During my time working at Andrea Hawkes I have assisted many members of our close-knit team across most aspects of production. Some of my day-to-day tasks include making veils, working on bespoke lace pieces and helping finish garments. I love working with such beautiful and natural fabrics and seeing those come to life various unique ways.

I love working in the warm and welcoming environment of Andrea Hawkes and I find it richly rewarding to know that our work means so much to our brides."

Elizabeth - Production Assistant

"Andrea Hawkes is the destination known for timeless designs and noteworthy experiences. The run-up to weddings can be stressful and hectic, so we are there to provide a safe space for brides to flourish. I love our ability to capture our brides' unique tastes and individuality in a natural and understanding way whilst providing exceptional service that leaves our brides feeling valued, confident, and empowered.

I discovered my love for baking at a very young age and still love how relaxing and creative it can be. The ability to share my baked goods is another reason why I love it. Trying out new recipes, to then enjoy with family and friends is such a lovely way to wind down."
