After visiting 4-6 other bridal shops and feeling so discouraged, I can honestly say Savvy Bride…read morewas a breath of fresh air! Erica, the owner, has an incredible personality. she's fun, warm, and instantly makes you feel at ease. The shop is so organized, and full of beautiful, affordable gowns that actually feel special and affordable. I felt excited and confident trying on dresses, and Erica made the whole experience such a joy. Highly recommend Savvy Bride to any bride-to-be it's everything you want in a bridal shopping experience! She has a good eye for what looks good and what works. She even picked a veil and I ended up saying yes to the dress! PLEASE STOP IN!

My experience with The Savvy Bride today inclines me enough to come home, smile with a glow, and…read morewrite this review. As someone who is terrible at making decisions, working with Erica today to find my perfect dress made it seem easy and flawless. First off, booking was easy online and personable. I found an appointment available and got the confirmation quickly. Additionally the questionnaire and personable customer service from Erica all walked me through the process more clearly. Erica even took the time to check what styles I liked, explained some commonly missed facts about bridal size vs street size (I didn't even know either!) and made sure we were within reason for my budget. I was even more floored once we got to the literal dress floor. Hundreds of dresses available and Erica was able to narrow down easily what would work for me. In fact, the inventory changes frequently which means new stuff is added all of the time. I ended up loving all of them in some way shape or form. Ultimately I was able to find a dress that was MY dress. Not only did I feel it but Erica and my sister saw it too. What made the visit most memorable was how Erica was friendly, understanding, knowledgeable, personable, and professional. Unlike other experiences I had, she was there to answer questions, clarify things, and be patient with the fact that I don't know much about weddings as a whole. In fact she asked me the right questions to know and affirm that I will feel confident, comfy, and assured with my decisions. There are so many things I didn't know I wanted or liked and Erica was able to find them for me at the price I was looking for. I couldn't be happier and recommend all brides take a look and visit to The Savvy Bride. Erica is THE savvy one and I couldn't be more grateful that she is. I'll definitely be back to get the accessories and everything I'll need for my big day. Love it and highly recommend.

The pink girls go above and beyond for their customers! I often shop the live sales (which are usually weekly), but I'm also like a kid in a candy store when I go into the shop! Their Tickled Pink app is also very user friendly, and a great way to follow live sales. It also feels good to support a family run business. I highly recommend visiting this store if you've never been!
