Good Points: Warmth of staff; talent and enthusiasm for their craft; flexibiliy and creativity; attention to detail
Bad Points: Absolutely nothing was bad about my experience with Ana Cristache
General comments: I cannot recommend the fabulous team highly enough. From the very first meeting I adored Ana Cristache's approach - they make you feel as if they have all the time in the world, and encourages you to articulate your views on colour, fabric and shape so they can begin to recommend just the right wedding dress. The brief was loose, to say the least - I knew only what I didn't want! Their patience, enthusiasm and creativity guided me through the options, and the final creation was truly exquisite. I looked forward to every appointment, and the team could not have made me feel more welcome. I cannot imagine a more talented, friendly, professional team.

I tried dresses at every well known top-end designer but nothing was quite perfect.
Then I found, Ana Cristache wedding Dresses, a lovely boutique store, and was able to work with the team to produce a completely original and bespoke dress which I thought was perfect.
Very responsive and thoughtful about what I was looking for.
I was staggered by the effort and time that went into developing the design and then making the dress, especially given the very reasonable price I paid.
Tremendous va ...

The Ana Cristache team are wonderful. They were all so patient and calm with me. I initially had to change my ideas of what I wanted and what would actually suit me for my wedding dress as I had had major surgery and therefore the dress had to fit around this.
When I had this explained to me it was a shock initially that "my dream dress" was not going to be suitable but the one they helped me choose was absolutely perfect. I looked stunning on my wedding day and can't thank the Ana Cristac ...

Ana Cristache Wedding Dresses were very attentive; relaxed sessions. Always listened to my point of view and gave good advice. Stuck to a fairly tight deadline. Very fair price for a beautifully made dress.
Very pleasant people to deal with; great designs at fair prices.

Similar to the other brides, I also got exactly what I wanted from Ana. My dress fitted perfectly and made me feel and look gorgeous on the day. Even the choir who get to sing at many weddings and see a lot of brides said how perfect my dress was for me! Most importantly however, I loved the customer service at Ana's boutique. During the busy times in the run up to the big day, the last thing that you want is stressing about your dress. Despite me choosing my dress late, they were absolutely sup ...

Ana Cristache Wedding Dresses - Getting the perfect dress made for me was one of things I was most worried about during our wedding preparations, especially living overseas in Dubai. Thank goodness I came across one of Ana's designs in a magazine. Her boutique was the first place I went to and, despite trying several others, I knew I wanted Ana to design and make my dress. She listened very carefully to the ideas we had and I had full confidence that those ideas would be implemented. The dress w ...

I went to Ana Cristache Wedding Dresses when I started looking for wedding dresses last year. I had something quite specific in mind and I fell in love with one of the Ana Cristache dresses I tried on. The thing which really made me appreciate them over other designers is how much effort goes into tailor making the dress - from the sequin color, to the lace style. You get to chose everything, with a lot of help from all the friendly staff who work there. I went back for several fittings, and eac ...

I loved the shop! It's such a luxurious boutique, it was an absolute pleasure to leave the dirty, polluted London air behind and step into such a stylish, chandelier-lit place. And the staff were amazing - attentive and kind and genuinely thrilled to be working in the wedding industry. I would have thought it might get a bit dull working with so many brides, but I can't begin to tell you how fabulous they made me feel, asking me loads of questions about my plans and caring about how the dress wo ...

I received exactly what I wanted from Ana - an exquisite wedding gown. I was made to feel completely at ease from my first visit and quickly understood exactly what I wanted. The comments I received from family and friends on our wedding day reinforced my opinion that Ana had designed and produced a stunning creation. I have no hesitation in recommending her service to other brides.

I would recommend Ana Cristache to all brides, in fact I already have sent at least two more friends there.The world of planning weddings and buying THE dress can all be very scary and daunting but Ana sorts it all out!The service is very friendly and personal. Ana gives practical advice and makes you feel totally at ease during every visit.

Friendly, welcoming, extremely helpful, flexible, patient and a genius in what she does - that sums up Ana Cristache! It was a relief to find someone who helped me find my perfect wedding dress, and who listened to what I had to say. The hours it took to make my dress show how committed she is to making your dream dress become a reality. I would recommend Ana Cristache wedding dresses to any friend, and the comments I had about my dress on the day and have had since are all down to Ana's work ...

Ana was so warm and welcoming, she really listened to what I wanted and designed a gown for me that was a combination of 3 pictures, the end result was a truely amazing gown that made me feel like a million dollars! Ana was so lovely and friendly, she really put me at ease and even packed my dress into the little case I was transporting it home in, nothing was too much trouble (even when I kept on changing my mind about things) I would highly recommend Ana to any bride, she is wonderful!

After hearing horror stories from friends about other designers, I was really nervous before turning up to my 1st appointment with Ana but the second I met her, I knew that I was going to enjoy the experience of having my wedding dress made! She immediately put me at ease and was incredibly friendly and professional from the start. We gave Ana some ideas we had put together and she came up with the rest. The final product was an absolutely stunning dress that had been a work in motion as the ...

I loved my wedding dress shopping experience! It was everything you've ever dreamed of!!! I visited there first, then I looked at numerous other shops and designers, but nobody came close to the warmth and capabilities of Ana Christache and her team. Once I had decided to go with Ana, we sat down and designed my dress together; Ana was really up for the challenge and was extremely knowledgeable about materials, colours, textures, shapes and accessories etc. Once we had agreed a design, I was ...

I wasn't the typical bride - I had no real idea what I wanted to wear, and I'd left dress buying to the last minute.
Thankfully, Ana Cristache made everything very easy for me. She combined two designs into a design which suited me perfectly, and managed to schedule enough fittings within a short period to ensure it was an exact fit (this, despite me getting one of my fitting times wrong - she slotted me in anyway). The quality of the product was all I could have hoped for, but what made buy ...

Ana Cristache immediately understood what I was looking for, and I ended up choosing the first dress that was suggested. She altered the design slightly for me, and made a beautiful matching bolero to complete the outfit, and I truly felt like a princess on the day. Throughout, Ana was friendly and efficient, and made the whole process easy from start to finish. Who says planning a wedding should be stressful?

Buying my wedding dress...well I knew what I did not want, but I had no clear picture of what I did want (despite many bridal magazines)! According to one boutique shop I should have been thinking about my dress since...forever! Then I went to see Ana Christache, who was so welcoming and relaxed, that I knew I had found the right person to help me. I had a great time trying on various dresses, some of which made me feel very glamorous! Ana's expert eye and friendly guidance meant that finding t ...

Ana Cristache was the first place I went to look for my wedding dress, and I didn't have to look any further! She was very patient, kind and helpful, while my mum and sister asked loads of questions, and after only the second dress I tried on, I had my dream wedding dress. I would recommend Ana Christache wedding dresses to anyone. You will not be disappointed!
