I got married in Sept 2006 and cannot believe the reviews I'm reading here - I felt like the only one! I feel pretty stupid for carrying on with them when they made me feel so unimportant for something so important. Especially considering the amount of money spent - '£1000 is a hell of a lo ...

Upon collecting my wedding dress from Essex Occasions 2 days before my wedding day (11th August 2005), I got the dress home, only to find it had a grease like stain down it. I rang the shop and was advised to take the dress straight back, which I did, and I was told not to worry, they would clean th ...

During my only visit to Essex Occasions, I found everyone to be extremely helpful and friendly! I ordered and paid a deposit of £450.00 for my wedding dress in August 2006. I received a phone call in December 2006 informing me that the shop had to close temporarily due to illness but that my o ...

The dress seemed fine at final fitting; however, on my day when getting ready, before even getting into the dress, the zip broke (zip/hook and eye were sown in the wrong way round) and I had to be sown into my dress with the help of my hairdresser, by removing both straps to cover the stitching. I ...

When I was looking for dresses they could not be more helpful. Order was placed for my dress and I was told I would be contacted in January 2007 for first fitting. In December I went to the shop to look for accessories and to my horror the shop was closed, no details of how to contact them etc. I t ...

I found Essex Occasions to always be helpful, from the date of my initial visit, a subsequent visit to pick out bridesmaid dresses and all the following fittings.
We also arranged all the bridal party suits from here as well. I would recommend them for other peoples weddings. And all of the m ...

I phoned Essex Occasions direct in December, and I was told that they had no record of my order, despite ordering my dress in May! She said that a lot of places tell you that there is a long wait for dresses, just so that they can take your money. They then won't order it until it's due.

They have closed the shop now, taken our money and disappeared, it does say they are still trading via the website. However, they have not ordered my dress 7 weeks after my fitting, and they took my deposit. Essex Occasions will not answer telephone calls, letters, recorded delivery letters or email ...
