    I said Yes to the dress at The White Flower! I cannot recommend The White Flower Bridal Boutique…read moreenough! My appointment was everything I could have hoped for and more. From start to finish, the entire process was seamless. If you are looking for an intimate, stress-free dress shopping experience with your loved ones, I highly recommend upgrading or making sure you reserve a private suite. It made the day feel so exclusive and special. The boutique provides a beautiful, comfortable space with refreshing non-alcoholic beverages, and the price is incredibly affordable for the high-end level of service you receive. A massive thank you to my stylist, Precilla! She was absolutely amazing, attentive, and made me feel so supported throughout the entire process. She really listened to what I wanted and made the appointment unforgettable. When I got a bit carried away with all the options, she gently steered me back toward my ultimate goal of finding my dream dress. I couldn't have asked for a better experience!

    It's been such an amazing experience all the way around, that I don't even know where to start!…read moreFrom having the most beautiful selection of dresses to the very best service, I'd rate White Flower a million stars if I could. White Flower happened to be my first stop when dress shopping, and man, they set the bar high. I visited close to ten stores and every experience felt rushed, sales-pushy, and uncomfortable. That is not the case here. You get your own private room to be in the moment with your loved ones that makes the entire experience feel so much more special. Hanna, who is now my favorite person ever, deserves the biggest shoutout of all! She is kind, knowledgeable, and hilarious, which immediately made us all so comfortable. She picked up what I was putting down immediately and knew what I wanted more than I even did. I genuinely look forward to whenever I get to come back for reveals, fittings, and pick ups because it's always wonderful seeing her. Thank you for making one of the most hectic parts of wedding planning a breeze. My dress is more beautiful than I could have ever dreamed of!!!!!!

My entire experience was incredibly welcoming and positive, and Bella, Kissy, Michelle, and Ashley were all phenomenal throughout the process. A special shoutout to Bella, who was an exceptional bridal stylist. She has a gift for making you feel confident, empowered, and beautiful in every dress you try on, while truly listening to what you're looking for. Everyone at this boutique is so kind and personable, and because of the way I was treated, I genuinely felt like a bride throughout the entire experience. I can't recommend Luv Bridal enough!

The Luv Bridal team reached out before my appointment to get an idea of what I was looking for. When I arrived, they walked through my price point first, then confirmed what we previously discussed was still what I wanted. I was able to select a few dresses to try on and my stylist, Sara, had a few in mind as well. Coincidentally, we both picked out a few of the same dresses. Luv Bridal takes such good care of their brides. I left loving a dress and they told me to think about it. I never felt pressured to buy the same day to lock in a particular pricing. And a few weeks later when I was ready to move forward, they still took great care of me. Thank you, Luv!!

I came in on a…read morewhim with a friend, not expecting much, and was pleasantly surprised by how many dresses I genuinely loved. While some were out of my budget or would have required alterations I wasn't willing to do, I ended up finding the perfect dress--already my size, needing little to no alterations, and within my budget. We were honestly amazed. I also really appreciated that they offer to hold a dress for a short period of time (either a few hours or up to a day). When you're making a big purchase decision--especially since the dresses are final sale--it's refreshing and reassuring to see a business that encourages you not to rush. It felt honest and thoughtful, not like they were just trying to make a quick sale. The only downside was the fitting room lighting. It isn't very flattering and doesn't show well on camera, which makes it hard if you're FaceTiming family or friends for a second opinion. I'd recommend stepping toward the front of the store near the window for better lighting. As a suggestion to the store, improving the fitting room lighting would make a huge difference and would also allow customers to feel more comfortable without having to walk to the front of the shop or be visible from outside. Overall, though, it was truly a great experience, and I would absolutely recommend this store.

The store is stunning! Loved everything about this location! Felt like a dream walking in here. We got super lucky and were the only people in the store while I was trying on dresses, so it felt very private and special. Dresses I tried on were all under $5k, which was in my budget. Also, plenty of meter street parking right nearby the store!

This was the first bridal shop I visited, and the very first dress I tried on ended up being the one I had been eyeing online. I still tried on a few others just to be sure, but I kept going back to that original dress. I had seen reviews saying this shop is only for very slim brides, and I completely disagree. I have curves and the dress fit me perfectly. Since I wasn't expecting to find my dress so quickly, I took a few days to think about it before ordering. My dress arrived in about four weeks and the process was so easy. It fit perfectly and just needs some hemming. Noelle was so awesome she had let me know that I could come back with friends and family to have a yes to the dress moment which I did. Overall, such an amazing experience and I would absolutely recommend Grace Loves Lace!

    My dress did not arrive in time for my wedding and they have not refunded me…read more Tl;dr: My dress did not arrive in time for my wedding. They agreed to refund me $2,276.88 five weeks ago, and I am still fighting for that refund. ... This is literally the first negative review I have ever written. I work in customer service, and I am very understanding. However, this has been a nightmare experience and their lack of professionalism as a business is absurd. I ordered a dress from HCTB with Rebecca on November 21, 2025, nearly six months before my wedding (May 2026). With the time constraint, I was planning on buying off-the-rack. Rebecca assured me I could order a brand new dress because it would arrive in February or March, which would allow enough time for fittings and alterations. I was repeatedly given conflicting delivery updates and fitting appointments that were later cancelled because the dress had not actually arrived. Below is a timeline of my communication with HCTB: On March 11th, after not hearing from them, I reached out asking for an update and received no response. On March 14th, I followed up again and was told my dress had shipped. We scheduled a fitting for April 8th. On April 7th, I was called and told the dress had not arrived and needed to reschedule. We rescheduled for April 15th. On April 14th, I was told again that the dress had still not arrived and we needed to reschedule. I was then told the dress would arrive on April 20 and we scheduled for April 22nd. I specifically expressed concern and asked how confident Rebecca was in that date, and she said she was "100% certain" it would arrive. On April 21st at 8:15 PM, I was contacted and told the dress still had not arrived and that now it "should" arrive by the end of April. My wedding was in May. On April 23rd, I sent a formal demand for a refund citing their contract. No response. On April 27th, I followed up. The next day they responded and said they would talk to the manager that day and get back to me. I heard nothing. On May 6th, I sent a text following up. Two days later they responded saying they would let the manager know I followed up. I asked when I should expect resolution and they said they would update me that day. They did not. On May 9th, I received a text stating they heard back from accounting, they were going to refund me in full, and I would see that refund in 10 business days. (Yay, I thought this was over.) On May 22nd, after 10 business days had passed and I was not refunded or given an update. I sent another text asking for an update. No response. On May 26th, I called the store and left a voicemail. I also sent a text. They responded to the text promising to get back to me by EOD. They did not. On May 27th, I called the store again from my husband's phone because they seemed to be ignoring my number. They answered and I spoke to Rebecca. She was very nice on the phone, thanked me for being so understanding, and ensured the refund would be processed by May 31st. It was not. On June 8th, I reached out again. They responded and said, "You have been so understanding and I am so sorry you have not received your refund. I will follow up with Rebecca and make sure you see this refund this week. This has taken too long." That was 8 days ago and I still have not been refunded or given an update. Long story short, do not give these people your business.

A huge, heartfelt thank you to Karla, the seamstress, who truly went above and beyond in every possible way. Her attention to detail is unmatched, she made sure every inch of my dress fit perfectly and looked flawless. But beyond her talent, it was her energy and care that made the experience so special. She brought excitement and positivity to every single appointment and always made me feel beautiful and confident. As a very Type A bride, I was definitely anxious and stressed throughout the process, but Karla constantly reassured me that everything would come together and she was right. Every appointment felt supportive and uplifting, and by the end, my dress was more perfect than I could have ever imagined. And let me just say Karla made sure this dress was indestructible. Based on the fitted style I chose, I truly didn't think I'd even be able to sit, let alone move comfortably. I was so worried about the zipper or seams giving out, but not even close. I danced all the way down to the floor, moved freely all night, and somehow even managed to lift myself up and over a fence for the most stunning cliffside photos. The craftsmanship and reinforcement she put into my dress gave me total confidence to fully enjoy every moment without holding back. If you're looking for a place that truly cares and a seamstress who treats your dress like it's the most important one she's ever worked on, this is it. I'm so grateful for this experience and will never forget how special they made me feel on such an important journey

    I had shopped at a few different boutiques prior to coming to Brides of San Diego. I had a bit of a…read morerush (my wedding was in 6 months at the time I was looking) and honestly I was just anxious about my body and what it would look like in a dress. At previous salons I felt those concerns magnify. But with Rosa I felt safe. She made my friends and I feel so incredibly special, and she just knew what would look good on me. She did a great job clamping the dress to fit me and just made me feel so good in my own skin. The dress is truly amazing, and in such a large part that's due to her. Fast forward a few months there was a hiccup in delivery, not at all the fault of Brides of SD, but I was so anxious. Lonnie, the owner, saved the day. Lonnie made sure I got my dress and on time. Special shout out to Mya who called with updates at every turn and honestly just made me feel so calm and safe. I feel grateful she was there and I hope she has the wedding of her DREAMS cuz she's also getting married soon and boy does she deserve it to be perfect. Ok but DONT GET ME STARTED on Lily the seamstress. That woman is a magician. My dress fits like a glove, my boobs look amazing, that's ALL LILY! She did such meticulous work so fast - she's truly amazing. All this to say, the road to my dress had a significant bump, but Brides of San Diego came through for me, and my dress is next level perfect. Thank you for making sure my dream could become a reality

    I'd gotten the phone call that my dress came in, but unfortunately I missed it. When I called back…read moreno one answered and the outgoing message said to press one to leave a voicemail. I followed the instructions, but all it did was continuously beep at me without letting me leave a message. So I called again the next day and I kept getting the same outcome. I had no choice but to call six times until someone answered. I hope they'll fix their phone system because it was pretty frustrating, especially since it was for something as important as picking up a wedding dress! I made an appointment and drove down, the staff was friendly from the moment we walked in. They even remember me from when I picked out my dress eight months ago! I was helped getting in and out of my dress, which made the experience easy. We were out of there in less than an hour. They were also kind enough to double bag my dress so my fiancé wouldn't see through it. Overall they have helpful employees, beautiful dresses and a clean store. I would recommend this shop to anyone, and to keep calling until the phone is picked up!
