The Andrea Hawkes Team

At AH it's important for our brides to get to know who we are, we are a small (very close) team who work in our Islington Showroom. As you venture through your wedding dress journey you will meet different team members, all of who will be working on your dress and ensuring you have the best experience possible.

From Andrea and our stylists through to our fitters, pattern cutters and seamstresses you will have touch points with each of us along the way. Here's a little bit about us, what we do and what we get up to in our spare time!

Andrea - Founder

"I’m Andrea, founder and creative director here at AH. I started the studio from a love of fabrics, British production and design. There’s nothing better than seeing a woman feel their absolute best in one of my dresses! It Brings me lots of joy

I have two lovely children and live outside London where I can enjoy a little bit of rural life, growing veg and walking my dog. I love the balance of city and countryside! My fav thing to do is to cook for my friends and family. Hosting dinner and trying out new recipes."

Daniel - Founder & Managing Director

“Myself and Andrea founded AH over 10 years ago. It has been a special journey as the brand has grown alongside our personal life together. Starting in a true 'Kitchen table' way; to the team, experience and reputation we have built to this day is something that makes me very proud.

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.

Away from AH, we have two young children that I love to spend time with, I have a new found love of hiking, alongside cycling, reading and music."

Bethany - Head of Sales & Client Experience

“As Head of Sales & Experience I get the honour of being a part of the journey of each individual finding the dress that makes them feel the most at home in their body and ready for one of the most love-filled and special days in their life. Weddings are fun and your experience leading up to it should match, so I hope to cultivate that energy for our brides!

Outside of AH, my passions are mental health advocacy and art. I’m a big reader, painter, and always looking to learn and grow. As a Texan in London, I love to explore and am always open to a strong restaurant, museum, or gallery recommendation.”

Siobhan - Head of Brand & Marketing, Senior Bridal Stylist

“I've been part of the Andrea Hawkes team since 2018, and I feel incredibly lucky to wear two hats as Head of Brand & Marketing and Senior Bridal Stylist. I love that no two days are ever the same, from dreaming up creative campaigns and sharing our story to working one-to-one with brides and helping bring their vision to life. One of the things I love most about Andrea Hawkes is our honest, down-to-earth approach. We want every bride to feel comfortable, confident, and completely herself, and it's so rewarding to be part of that journey.

Outside of AH, you'll usually find me covered in paint or planning my next home project! I've been renovating a 1930s house over the last few years and have discovered a real love for DIY and interiors. I love mixing modern and traditional design to create spaces that feel warm, lived-in, and full of character.”

Moss - Senior Fitter / Head of Aftercare & Repurposing


"As Head of Aftercare and Repurposing at AH, I love working with garments that hold such special memories and I feel incredibly privileged to help continue that story beyond the wedding day. Nothing is more magical than seeing a wedding dress, a garment already filled with so much sentiment, being transformed into a beautiful evening wear dress for our clients to continue creating new memories in! I aim to give each dress a new chapter while honouring its original story; with sustainability at the heart of our practice, I believe that giving a garment a new lease of life is one of the most meaningful choices we can make.

When I’m not in the studio, I’m at home in London with my two children, usually surrounded by paints, paper or fabrics and happiest when immersed in a new craft project together! I love vintage markets and unusual textiles, always on the lookout for pieces with character and history."

Emma - Production Manager

"As production manager at Andrea Hawkes, I’m passionate about bringing each bride's vision to life, ensuring every bride feels like the best version of themself on their wedding day.Working in such a creative environment, surrounded by stunning fabrics and inspiring designs, makes every day rewarding.

Outside of AH, I enjoy taking long dog walks to explore new places. I also have a passion for music. I play several instruments and attend many live performances and festivals."

Laurie - Pattern Cutter

"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"

Beata - Senior Seamstress


"From the youthful moment when I saw my mothers wedding dress photo, my adventure with bridal dresses begun. I have been at AH for nearly 5 years! My favourite part of my job is seeing our brides' faces light up when they see our hard worked-on creations. Such a heart warming thing to see everyday.

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

Abi - Head Fabric Cutter


"As Head Fabric Cutter at Andrea Hawkes, I get to do what I love most - work closely with gorgeous fabrics and help bring wedding dresses to life. Creating the first shape of a wedding dress is still my favourite part of the process. Every cut feels like the start of someone’s story.

Outside of work, I love sewing, painting, and hanging out with my friends. I’m originally from Dublin, and exploring London’s galleries, markets, and hidden corners has become one of my favourite ways to feel inspired."
