She did an excellent job at hearing what my dress preferences were and finding the perfect blend of options for me to try on.

Not only did Sophie do a great job at finding my vision in the perfect dress, but she also handles the entire appointment with professionalism, empathy, and kindness! I felt so comfortable working with her. She was responsive to my questions over texts after the dress was selected and gave me timely updates!

After a full day of shopping we went back to the shop and got a dress she fell in love with here. And on top of it all the dress was only 500$!!!! I could not believe it.

Very welcome news and I feel like a&bé and Lauren in particular deserve a special shout out for her excellent guidance and spot on accuracy.

She mentioned a seamstress would be coming in shortly and could offer better advice. This alone seemed so helpful for the bride- what a wonderful service to be offered BEFORE you say yes to the dress. I ended up purchasing a gorgeous dress at a fraction of the price.

The Monique L. boutique in Los Angeles only had certain styles available and for a hefty price tag of $650 each and the one that I wanted was discontinued.

My prayers had been answered and I got to rent the exact Monique Lhuillier belt that I had been hunting for.....for a fraction of the cost! What a genius she is for creating a company of this sort.

Teri designed a $1700 pretty simple, silk dress for my wedding in September of 2015. Teri is very…read moregood at explaining how the architecture of a dress works, which is why I picked her over a boutique designer. She was never super friendly during our visits, even forgetting that we had an appointment once or twice. She was pretty cold when I brought my mom and mother in law in.. not very fun during a very exciting time. The most important thing... the dress never had much done to it whenever I had an appointment! She would literally start sowing on it when I'd come in and made very simple and sometimes careless details that I had to ask to have redone with more care. The worst thing, the day of picking up the dress, she was not done with it, finishing it in front of me. She DID NOT FINISH THE SEAMS UNDER MY DRESS. It was literally tattered seams underneath and I had a train, so if it flipped over, it was tattered shreds. She said this was normal, to preserve the soft look on the outside. I took it to two seamstresses afterward and no one said this was normal or acceptable. But we had no time to fix it before the wedding so I wore it anyway. During my wedding I felt self conscious and worried that my dress would show the tatters or would fall apart... as I had jeweled straps and the jewels were very lose. I had to donate my dress afterward because it was just falling apart... and they would only accept the dress because they could use the fabric to practice on lol, they couldn't even fix it to be worn again. Sorry ladies, don't let this happen to you. Get the dress and the experience you deserve, somewhere professional.

My husband and I got married after dating for seven years. By the time our wedding came around, we…read morealready had bought a house and cars together, were on each others' life insurance policies, etc. So, the idea of the traditional wedding did not appeal to us...instead, we wanted to throw a chic, modern party. After trying on dresses at many stores in the Portland area, I never found something that was exactly what I was looking for. There were elements to several dresses that I loved but none of them combined into one. Here's where Terri at Embellish Design comes in. I decided that having my dress custom-made was the way to go. I contacted Terri and went to her studio in her house in NE Portland. Let's just say that the woman is AMAZINGLY talented. She went to Parsons School of Design in LA and her abilities are incredible. We sat down and discussed different dresses and styles, fabrics and details. She brought out fabric samples and talked about the pros and cons of each. The experience was incredibly fun...we built a dress that was exactly what I had wanted on all fronts (fabric, shape, detail). Her work was incredibly gorgeous AND the cost of the dress when all was said and done was cheaper than any of the dresses I had tried on in the shops. She also has a party dress business called Olivia Luca.
