Even…read moreif they don't have the dress for you, the service and atmosphere of this shop is a recommended experience! Camille was truly the best - she took the time to get to know me, my family and bridal party that were with me, what I was looking for, what I had already tried on. Every step of the process she was so attentive and patient. The day of my appointment (after two back to back weekends of pretty underwhelming dress appts), I had tried on a few and liked a few aspects of the dresses pulled. The last dress of the day is when Camille pulled out THE ONE! At this point I decided to think about it as I was overthinking if this was truly the dress and she was so kind and understanding. I didn't feel pressured to purchase right then and there. I ended up booking the "The One" appointment for the following weekend and again, Camille, the staff, everything was perfect and I finally said yes to the dress! Lex helped me with measurements and ordering, answered all my questions, and made me feel confident moving forward with securing the dress. I cannot thank Love and Lace enough and can't wait to pick up my dress later this year for my Jan. 2027 wedding!

This bridal salon ended up being the only one I went to, I found my perfect dress with the help of Lex. She truly made my experience amazing. I wish I could go back just to hang out with her! I came into the salon with a list of dresses that I had previously viewed on their website, Lex pulled them right out for me and we got to work! She had also pulled some different designs just so I could see how I looked in them, which I did end up loving! At the end of my first visit, I fell in love with two different dresses. Again, it was also my first bridal salon that I had visited so far, so I was still planning on checking out other places. After telling Lex that I wanted to sleep on it/check out other places she was totally understanding and didn't "pressure" me like a lot of other places I've heard. I could not stop thinking about one of the dresses I tried on at my first fitting, so I made my follow up appointment (obviously with Lex) and boom! Wedding dress secured! BEST experience ever I wish I could do it all over again.

We arrived about 15 minutes early for the appointment and understood we needed to come back, so the three of us my daughter, my sister-in-law, and I walked to a nearby coffee shop to get some tea while we waited for my sister, my niece, and one of her bridesmaids, Sam. When we all got back and walked in, we were greeted by Hailey. She was so bubbly and genuinely excited to help my daughter find the dress. She was incredibly sweet and spoke to my daughter, Anyssa, in such a sincere and warm way that it immediately made her feel comfortable. Since I work in customer service myself, I can easily recognize when someone goes above and beyond and Hailey absolutely did. My sister and everyone with us agreed. Hailey, you are in the right job. God truly placed you exactly where you're meant to be right now. It was clear that you weren't doing this for the commission or for what you might gain from the sale. You were doing it because you understood what this moment meant to my daughter. That meant everything to us. I would 100% recommend you to anyone looking for their wedding dress not just because of the bridal shop, but because of you. I truly hope you are recognized for the amazing job you do. And the best part... she picked the dress!

These…read moretwo ladies at Blush Bridal have assisted me from in-person at the boutique to electronically. Now, where do I even begin...? Here is a little about myself! I work in the event industry and I have actually found Blush Bridal Couture (BBC) because I am a lover of Miss Hayley Paige. I searched on her website to find a local boutique. Being the adamant and passionate person that I am -- I emailed BBC and Amy was the one who was super helpful. She made me so excited for my first bridal dress shopping and filled me in with some great news. There was a Hayley Paige (HP) truck show at BBC and I totally made my dress shopping date around that weekend. Bonus is there was a discount that was applied to purchases made! When the day finally came to try on HP dresses, I had my heart set on my #1 choice. It was great, beautiful, whimsical, and I felt like a pretty princess... but it was my Maid of Honor who was there with me that brought another one of her dresses to my attention. Apparently there was a mishap between the trunk show dates being mixed up and BBC extended their trunk show weekend and I went back a second time to try on more HP dresses as well my original #1 choice and the second dress that stole my heart. Lo and behold!! I ended up choosing the one that my MOH picked off the rack and it was so me!! It was perfect! I felt gorgeous, elegant, timeless, and sexy (which by the way, I have never felt sexy lol). Major thank you for Hailey for both the days I was there in-person at the boutique and a huge e-thank you to Amy who assisted virtually. Also thank you for the mementos from BCC and love HP's bridal tote bag. I cannot wait for the special day and get all the bridal shots of THE DRESS!!

I've been on my fair share of wedding dress shopping trips, and Suzy truly stands out as one of the best stylists I've encountered. She was kind, attentive, and created such a positive, comfortable experience. We shared photos and descriptions of what we were envisioning, and Suzy completely nailed it. Even when some dresses weren't quite right, she was understanding and never once pressured us to make a decision or stay in a dress longer than necessary. Everything felt relaxed and supportive, which made the experience even more enjoyable. The boutique has an incredible selection of dresses for every style and budget. Thank you to Mon Amie and Suzy for such a positive, memorable dress-shopping experience!

I feel conflicted writing this because my initial bridal appointment in September 2025 was amazing…read more My stylist, Erin, was warm, attentive, and really understood my vision. She even pulled dresses I wouldn't have chosen myself, one of which became my dress. The hospitality, including sparkling wine and a beautiful try-on space, made it a truly special experience. Unfortunately, my presentation appointment this past weekend was very different. I invited my maid of honor and future mother-in-law since it was just my mom and I during my initial dress shopping appointment. I expected a similar, celebratory moment, but it felt more like a quick errand. We were placed in a small back room, the appointment felt rushed, and there was little of the hospitality I experienced before. The biggest issue was trying on my dress. It didn't fit, which was stressful and disappointing, but obviously no one's fault. That said, I wish the staff had taken a more discreet and thoughtful approach, like adjusting or clipping the dress before bringing my guests in. Instead, my guests were brought in while the dress was visibly unfastened, and the conversation focused on fit issues. I was also asked about my weight in front of everyone, which felt uncomfortable and could have been handled more privately. Overall, it was a disappointing experience, especially compared to such a strong first impression. I still love my dress and hope this was just a one-off, and that the alterations process will be more positive. I'd just recommend managing expectations and not treating the presentation appointment as a special occasion for guests.

They allowed me to have a few more guests and was patient when I was late to the appointment due to a collision on the freeway. I tried on more dresses than I originally picked. They offered champagne and water. They were positive, professional, and kind and I recommend you buy your wedding dress here. They didn't try to upsell me and prices are transparent on their website. You save a little if you buy from the store.

The lady helping us honestly seemed like she didn't really want to the there (one of my bridesmaids said something after too so I know it wasn't just me) but she was plenty nice overall and they give brides and the people they bring free drinks so overall very good experience!

I ended up falling in love with a mermaid gown when I had only tried on A-lines at my previous fittings at two other shops. I felt so beautiful in it from the first fitting to my big day. They also offer alterations at similar pricing to my usual tailor (who charges fairly) - I did get a discount since a shipping delay resulted in my dress coming late which I greatly appreciated! The seamstress who worked on my dress was super sweet and experienced - the hem was perfect, the bodice fit so well I never worried about having to adjust my dress despite it being off-the-shoulder, and the American bustle held up super well (even me jumping around the dance floor couldn't do any damage). Their hours were a little unclear online and I had to wait a couple days for a response at times (usually because they were still waiting on something), but overall a wonderful experience!

The cons: I have to echo the sentiments of many other reviewers that we were barely greeted upon entering, to the point that they even seemed annoyed. The owner never introduced herself; she just sort of stared at us the whole time, in an uncomfortable way. Sharon was my consultant, and she was pleasant enough, but I also echo the sentiments that it's unusual for this place not to help you get your dress on, that you hang them back up yourself, and that it's just not on the same service level as the 4 other salons I visited. They don't offer water, tea, etc., nothing to drink, while all 4 other salons would offer water or a soda at a minimum. I had one other appointment earlier in the day, which I ultimately went back to to purchase my dress, despite Jaclyn's also carrying my dress. Jaclyn's price was $700 more for the exact same dress, but even if it had been the same price, I wouldn't have purchased from here based on the service. I get the feeling that the service would be better if you were walking in here with a very large budget. Just an underwhelming experience.

My experience at Panache Costa Mesa was quite disappointing. I would not wish for any other brides…read moreto endure what I went through there. My wedding was scheduled for September 2024 abroad, and I was genuinely excited to visit Panache based on a recommendation from a trusted source. My dress was designed by Estee Couture, and I am extremely dissatisfied with the service I received on all ends. I left the store feeling more stressed than happy, and even on the final day of my fitting, I had unresolved issues. Unfortunately, I had no choice but to accept the situation as my flight was just two days after my last fitting. My measurements were taken, and I expressed my concerns, but I found myself having to follow up repeatedly for updates. I would text and call my assistant, Kiersten, only to receive vague reassurances, yet it became clear that nothing had been communicated to the designer or seamstress when I asked them myself in person. The custom sleeves I had ordered did not hold up on my wedding day; they completely snapped and fell off during cocktail hour. Additionally, the gathered fabric at the front of the dress was not addressed by the designer. Although the seamstress, Meryl, made an effort to fix the situation, her options were limited, and the issue remained unresolved. She informed me that the designer was aware of the problem, but no action was taken. I am dissatisfied with both Estee, the designer, and the service I received at Panache. Considering the investment made at panache I would expect better service, communication, and attention to details. Despite any internal challenges they may have faced, the staff did not fulfill their responsibilities or deliver the expected results. I will add that I spoke with multiple managers regarding my concerns, (Pasadena location too) and while I appreciate that we ultimately came to a solution where the dress will be cleaned and preserved on their behalf, it doesn't change the fact that the dress itself was not in the condition it should have been.
