Nigel Rayment Boutique & Hat Shop Reviews 

I visited Sean at the Manchester branch looking for an outfit for my daughters wedding. Sean couldn’t have been more helpful. I spoke to Sean about the brides colour theme and styles I usually bought which I thought suited me. Sean was able to help me select several possible outfits. All very bespoke and beautiful in their own way. I ended up buying an outfit Sean selected, which I would never have considered ordinarily. The fit is gorgeous and very flattering. I can’t wait to wear it to my daughters wedding.

I travelled from Wales to Sean’s Manchester store to find an outfit for my daughter’s wedding. The whole experience was a joy. Sean has an excellent eye for what suits an individual and made me feel very comfortable & at ease.
I had a wonderful time trying on dresses from his beautiful collection and found “ The one” for my special day ! Thank you Sean for your help and for making what could have been a stressful experience such a joy.
I would highly recommend a trip to this lovely store !!

Recently purchased a second mother of the bride outfit from the store. On the second occasion I was lucky enough to be served by Nigel directly. He's understanding and passion for the right outfit made me feel relaxed and fabulous. The dresses were my choice, but his advice and eye for a beautiful outfit filled me with confidence. I'm absolutely over the moon with my outfit of choice and can't wait to wear it on the big occasion. Hopefully, you will be lucky to get Nigel to serve you too! I would definitely recommend you trying Nigel Rayment for you big event.

Bought my dress and hat here for my daughter's wedding in December this year. Nigel and his wife could not have been more helpful and patient, making the whole experience very easy, relaxed and not at all pressured. I highly recommend them and am so happy I chose them to help me find my outfit.

Can highly recommend Shaun at the Manchester store to help you find an outfit for that special occasion after he found me the perfect dress for my daughter’s wedding. With such a diverse and extensive stock I was able to walk away with the outfit there and then, including hat. He made the whole experience so fun, easy and completely stress free- despite corona virus restrictions. Thank you again for your help and guidance, it’s really appreciated.

Yesterday the 1st of July 2020 I visited the London store with my daughter to find an outfit for her wedding, hopefully to take place in October 2020.
There was only Nigel, my daughter and myself in the store and I must say it was a lovely experience. I am diabetic and of pension age so have to be aware of the Covid 19 risks. Every thing was perfect! I could try on whatever I wanted to, was not rushed or put under any pressure. I appreciated Nigel and his honest opinions, all given with a smile.
I would encourage any mother of the bride or groom to book an appointment with Nigel as so many outfits to choose from. I didn’t buy a dress - I bought two!!
Please visit this store a lovely place to shop, especially considering how awful the high street shops are at the present time.

What a fantastic boutique. SEAN provided an excellent service and is very knowledgable. I picked out seven dresses and Sean selected two for me to try. Low and behold, one if his choices was perfect. I would highly recommend Sean and the team, 5 star service and he made me feel very special. Thanks very much. Ingrid.

My mother and I went to Nigel’s London boutique at the end of January as the new stock arrived - our visit was an absolute pleasurable experience. Nigel and his wife were amazing and my 82 year old mother left with a beautiful outfit for my son’s wedding which made her look young and elegant. I bought two hats!! Thoroughly recommend. Thank you.

OK but didn’t wow me, many other smaller shops just as good or better

Why do people buy online when you can have a great day out trying on beautiful designer clothes? Sean kept me up to date with new arrivals and I looked at all the images online and had a really good idea of what I was looking for when I arrived in the morning. Several hours later, and lots of dress changes and advice from Nigel, I bought a fabulous outfit I would never have dreamt of buying had I seen it online or in a catalogue. Great customer service and well worth a visit.

So pleased to have got my mother of the bride outfit at Nigel Rayment Boutique. Having searched high and low for a particular style and colour, Nigel was so helpful and sent me pictures and videos of dresses I had seen online since the Manchester shop was over 300 miles from my home in Scotland. Also I was told by the designer that the dress I was interested in had only been bought by NR in that particular colour! I was then able to purchase over the phone with confidence. Could not fault the service I received and I will definitely be back when my next daughter gets married!!

Always bought second hand from printed media then I discovered Nigel and his team.ive read the reviews from other ladies and everything seems perfect.cant wait to try my outfit with tights and heels and see my little girl married. She says I show her up but that's just humour laura

A large range of beautiful dresses and hats to choose from. The staff were friendly and helpful and not at all pushy!
This is the perfect shop if you are looking for something extra special to wear to your child’s wedding. I received so many compliments on my outfit so thank you Nigel Rayment for making me feel so confident at my sons wedding!

This is the most fabulous shop for Mother of the bride.

My daughter got married last weekend and my outfit I bought was a fantastic success, thanks to Nigel and his team.

I cannot recommend highly enough.Nigel spent hours emailing me etc to find the perfect outfit.

Thank you Nigel Rayment

Hi Sean.
Thank you so so much for helping me choose the correct outfit for my Daughters wedding next March. It wasn’t a colour I went in for as I had a different colour in mind. However, tried it on and as you said it suited me better than the colour I had in mind. I’m so happy with it now and do prefer it.
I had been to a couple of shops that stocked Ronald Joyce but I was amazed to see the collection that you had. Along with the hats too.
I felt quite a ease in your shop. There was no pressure sales. I was able to take my time.
I knew I would be sorted there. So pleased.
And at half the price what more could one want. Thank you so much would visit you again without a doubt.

Whilst in London I went to the shop looking to get a Mother of the Bride outfit. Elena was most helpful and after trying on several outfits she showed me a beautiful blue outfit that I purchased. My husband was also made to feel very welcome in the shop. As we were traveling, Nigel was most helpful packing the outfit and posting it to Australia. I highly recommend this boutique and the extra service that they provide.

I cannot recommend Nigel highly enough if you want a special outfit that is spot on, fits like a dream and you enjoy being very looked after. Nigel’s attention to detail is superb and he and his staff are so helpful - a visit to his shop makes it all part of a truly wonderful experience. You will leave feeling like a million dollars.
Nigel could not have done more to help me select the right outfit and hat for my stepson’s wedding. He has a great eye for what suits and goes above and beyond to make sure you are absolutely satisfied with your choice and the fit.
I’ll definitely be going back. Thank you Nigel x

Not very helpful! Think staff did not think I could afford anything!! (Very rainy day turned up in rain coats) Staff advised me to go to Dorothy Perkins!! How rude !! Do not go here!! I left feeling so bad!! I had messaged about dresses and told in stock no need for appointment treated like we were second class because we were wearing rain coats. Left with a dress I do not want. Such an in pleasent experience.

Perfect place to find "The Outfit". I visited the Manchester store yesterday along with a friend to choose my mother of the bride outfit. Sean couldn't have been more helpful and patient, even suggesting we go for lunch and come back to try on the short listed dresses again. Lovely calm environment in which to make the decision. My advice would be to just succumb and after initial browse, let Sean bring you dresses as is clearly so experienced. Came away with beautiful dress and we even made a new friend with another Mum who was in the store. Highly recommended.

I bought a complete outfit for my son wedding about three years ago at the London boutique store and I was 100% satisfied with the quality and the fitting. I wore it a second time and the compliments I got was just great. I think it was Mrs Raymond at the shop at the time who was very great in assisting me choose outfit. I do recommend this Boutique for anyone looking for something to look stunning in.
