So often, you find bridal dress assistants to be unwavering, watching the clock or leaving the bride nudie pants in the stall for extended time - Not Zee! She was so helpful and attentive! She guided us to dresses, let us pull styles we liked without even a hint of annoyance (I can be a little pushy). This shop has easily the best in the biz at the helm here. And - omg - What a wonderful selection! It was so hard to choose, but in the end, after narrowing it to two gorgeous dresses, I asked her to pull a dress she had earlier suggested that didn't seem to be in the mix. Guess which dress ended up being THE ONE?! PERFECT combination of elegance, beauty and whimsy - the dress combined the most flattering fit with all elements and statements the bride wanted! OMG - That dress! This Bride! Tears, tears, more tears! Thank you, Zee! You were the absolute best consultant to work with! You truly know your client! read more

I loved my dress. I loved shopping for my dress. I loved getting my dress tailored. I loved the veil that completed the dress. I loved my experience at Bride's Choice from beginning to end. Laura S. read more

Not only did we order the bridesmaid dresses from here, but I ended up bringing my dress in for alterations, as Yolanda (where I got my dress), closed! Z - the owner and woman who does the alterations - is so friendly and totally didn't mind that my dress was from another store. I've only had 1 round of alterations down so far, but so far, so good!! The only issue is that the website says they sell shoes, but they don't really have that many - maybe 2-3 pairs. read more

I found this place via a site called 'The knot'. This store carries lots of dresses by a designer that I like. I called ahead and made an appointment on a weekday late afternoon. The lady named Maria that works there was very friendly and helpful despite of the fact that she was working alone. I showed her some photos of the gown I have in mind by this particular designer with a budget in mind. She was very helpful and quickly brought out many gowns. Maria was very nice and sweet. I felt like I was shopping with an old good friend while trying on these beautiful gowns. Later, I met Zee the manager. I want to thank you for having such a wide selection of gown from this designer. Yea, I found my dress at this store. I would do an update on my review for this store once the dress arrives. Thanks Zee and Maria and of course "the knot"!! So my gown has arrived last month in May and it fit perfectly. I am definitely looking forward to wearing it. Thanks Bride's choice! read more

My best friend and I had a very good experience here shopping for her dress. What we liked: You can browse the whole inventory of samples. Things are organized by style and price. Many reasonably priced dresses ($500's and $600's) We arrived a bit early, but the owner accomodated us. The owner took care of my friend personally, was very friendly, and edited her dress selections to remove those that would be inappropriate for her beach wedding or her small frame. Since it fit her, the owner offered to sell my friend the sample of her favorite dress at a discount. Score! The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars was because pictures aren't allowed. Not uncommon, but when moms, sisters and close friends live in another part of the country, it's nice to send pictures to get their opinion and keep them feeling included. read more

Meh........I made an appointment this morning I saw Zee, who is apparently the store owner/buyer and is nice enough. I looked through all the (hundreds of) dresses myself, even after I told her what I like. The sample dresses were dirty (really dirty at the bottom), and it was kind of gross. I got myself into and out of the dresses (without a bra or petticoat), even though I've been to other places (chain places) that have given me all the necessary undergarments, shoes, and veil/tiara and helped me get into/out of the dresses. For the price of the gowns (the one that I liked the best was $1300), I would have expected a little bit more. Also, the end of my appointment was odd. The third dress I tried on was the one I liked best. I said I liked it. I went back in the room, and I wasn't sure if we were done or not. Apparently we were, because after sitting in the room for a minute or two, Zee asked for the dress back and didn't hand me another one. I just figured we were done. Anyway, it was just a completely underwhelming experience. Needless to say, I won't be purchasing my dress here. read more

I used Brides Choice for my bridesmaid dress and bridal gown alternations. I have nothing but great things to say! For the bridesmaid dresses- they have a great selection of dresses. I found the staff very helpful with picking out different styles and giving honest feedback. They also helped with color options and were very patient with me (as I am indecisive). They staff is very laid back and they do not force you into any purchase. It was easy to place the order (this was great considering many of my bridesmaids live out of state). For my alternations, Zee did a great job. She was always on time and very efficient with her work. Everything came out perfect on my wedding day. I also bought my veil there, they have a great selection of veils. I've been to many bridal shops and I really enjoyed the friendly staff and non-pressure atmosphere. Just be prepared that there is only one dressing room (so I wouldn't recommend a large group of girls going together to find dresses). read more

A friend and I went here as a last ditch effort to try and find a bridesmaid dress for her. We didn't have an appointment, just walked in around noon on a Saturday. A crapshoot but they do take walk ins so it worked out. The selection was huge! I was pleasantly surprised. They have many price points, colors, and styles. The customer service wasn't exactly stellar - we were basically left alone until we decided to buy something. Still, the whole process went smooth. Once we selected a dress they showed us the catalog of colors to pick from, measured my friend, and helped her pick the right size and discussed alterations. Half was due as a deposit on the dress which was reasonably priced. She got a very modern and lovely Bill Levkoff dress for $186. Pricier than David's Bridal but better quality and higher likelihood of wearing it again. read more

Make Brides Choice your 1st and last stop. I came here tonight with my sister, my mother and my aunt after having booked a 6pm appointment online. When we arrived, we were pleased to find we were the only ones in for an appointment, so we knew we'd have plenty of attention. We met Maria and she was lovely. She explained how our appointment would work, asked what i was looking for, and even suggested some other ideas i hadnt thought about. Maria was quick to grab a half a dozen dresses and made me feel very comfortable. Maria and Zee helped show the rest of my party how each of the dresses would fit and answered all of our million questions. They were patient, listened to us, and were easy to accommodate all of our requests. I wish I had come here before another place (which didnt give the personal 1-1 attention). The other part of feedback I have to share, is that unlike other boutiques, they dont show you anything outside your budget. read more

Brides Choice was more than I could have hoped for when finding my dream wedding dress. After getting engaged in July 2012 and scheduling our wedding for November 8, 2012 due to the health of a family member, I was told by friends and other dress shops that I should strongly consider off the rack dresses and would need to find something as soon as possible. Having waited for years for my wedding day, I was adament that I would not settle for a previously worn or off the rack dress. A friend of mine recommended the Maggie Sottero website and I fell in love with the 'Courtney' - it was the exact dress had been envisioning. I called Brides Choice to see if they carried this specific dress so I could try it on and also told them that I did not want to try it on unless I knew it could be ordered and would arrive in time for my wedding which was happening in less than three months. They called the designer and when I arrived for my appointment, they told me that this dress was in stock and that they could get it for me in time for my wedding. The moment I put it on, I knew it was my dress! After being told that it should arrive around October 17th - my wedding date being November 8th - I received a call on Saturday, September 29th saying that my dress was in and they wanted to schedule my first fitting! I could not believe it had come in so ahead of schedule. From my original appointment, to the two hours Zee spent pinning my dress, to my final fitting, to them making additional changes to the bustle, and then steaming it on Wednesday so it could be ready for pick up for my Thursday wedding - everything at Brides Choice was PERFECT. I couldn't have asked for a better experience while planning a wedding in 111 days! Knowing that my dress was in such wonderful and reliable hands, I was relaxed and able to focus on my other wedding tasks. I had so many compliments on my wedding day and honestly do not believe it would have been possible with any other dress shop. I highly recommend Brides Choice!!! I cannot say enough amazing things about them!!! read more

Let me start by saying this was a WAYYY better experience than the first bridal shop I went to. I had called ahead to try a dress they had on stock. Greeted by Maria who was super friendly and warm. She listened to me and my specifics, no strapless, love lace, little bling etc etc. I gave her a few dresses by designers I liked and she pulled them. She showed me the dressing room and let me put on the dress alone, then came on and buttoned, clipped etc. It was way more comfortable this way. I am a regular size girl but a larger bottom, so some smaller sample sizes I could fit over my head and let fall, whereas at other stores they are starring at you and make you feel uncomfortable. She never asked my size or made any comments about fit or size. I tried on the dress I had called about and while I liked it, I liked the second dress I put on way more! She let me try on all of the dresses and then the favorite again. I made another appointment to see the dress with another family member, it may be the one. Only down fall, you can't take pictures :( read more

I tried on dresses at four different stores and ultimately ended up buying my wedding dress at Bride's Choice. The first time I went in, I told them what I was looking for and within a few minutes, they pulled numerous dresses that fit my style and budget. They were very patient with me, and I ended up going back when my mom was visiting and making the final decision. Zee, the owner, was great to work with and answered all my questions. I bought my veil and belt there a few months before my wedding and Zee worked with me to ensure I would have everything a few weeks before the wedding. My dress needed minor alterations and turned out great. While the store does not look very fancy from the outside, they have a great dress selection and really work with you based on what you are looking for! read more

If I could give this review no stars, I definitely would! This place was absolutely disgusting! From the moment I pulled in the parking lot, I knew I would regret making this bridesmaid appointment. We walked in and they showed us where the bridesmaid dresses were and from then on we were on our own. No one helped us from that point on. I thought it was so rude and ridiculous! This place is so disorganized! They put all 7 of my bridesmaid in a small single dressing room to try on dresses at the same time. Um..not happening! The place had other appointments on, so we didn't even have a mirror to look into! DO NOT COME TO THIS PLACE! So gross & disorganized! I am surprised this place is even in business!! read more

I had a wonderful experience at Bride's Choice. I am planning a very nontraditional wedding, and I was looking for a dress in purple. I picked some styles out online in advance, and they found them for me right away. They also have a huge selection of bridal and bridesmaid gowns to browse in the store. Anita helped me and was incredibly helpful, patient, and friendly. When I was torn between two dresses, she gave me an honest opinion for one even though the other cost 6 times the price. I highly recommend this for your wedding or special occasion! read more

I was very unhappy with my experience there. My initial appointment was rushed, the woman was rude and the alterations looked horrible. My wedding dress has a mesh straps with beading on both sides. To shorten them, they folded the strap over and added a few stitches. As soon as I put the dress on I started to cry. I knew that I could not wear the dress as it was. The woman told me that the problem was me, that nothing would make me happy, but I cannot see how any bride would find that acceptable. At one point she tried to have my leave with the dress as it was, since I had already paid for the alterations. read more

Bride's Choice - Alteration to my wedding dress straps. Not happy. - Bridal Near Me - Waltham, Massachusetts

Seriously, please do NOT go here for anything. I came to simply get a pair of pants tailored and it was seriously the worst job that I have ever seen. I brought in a pair of black cuffed dress pants to shorten by maybe 2 inches that I wanted recuffed (did not care if the original cuff was used, but i wanted something similar as they were very well made pants and well designed.) Little did I know, their idea of cuffing was to hack off whatever was not needed and sort of sew the cuff up. Ie, it was sewn (maybe 2 stitches) on the inside and the outside seam. it took a whole 5 minutes for my heels to get caught in the pants' cuff as well as to tear the terrible stitching and undo the cuffing. Why couldn't they do exactly what the pants had originally had and sewn the cuff down so i wouldn't have these issues. Now I have to take it to more competent tailors to get it done right. waste of time and money. they charged up the ass for this too! read more

I'd have to say my experience here was awkward. Here are the pros and cons: CONS: You can't take pictures No one can go into the dressing room with you to help The consultant can sometimes be awkward and rude (Though she warmed up at the end of the session) PROS: You can browse freely She didn't pressure me to buy, but did encourage me to buy that day for a 10% discount Everyone loved this one dress on me and I kept thinking about it but I couldn't see a picture of myself in it! How is a woman supposed to gauge what she feels or what she looks like if she doesnt have a reference!!@)$@#)*%!!! It was such an AWKWARD experience. I am very comfortable with my body and when I was in the changing room, the consultant would toss the dresses into the dressing room and hide behind the other side so she didn't have to look at me... weird. It was just a very very very awkward session. And she didn't allow any of my bridesmaids to come help me! Though... they did come by anyway because I kept asking for them. This would not be the first place I ask my gfs to come find a dress. read more

I had an excellent experience at Bride's Choice. Great customer service. A lot of patience was required since it was my first appointment looking for a gown and I didn't have much of an idea of what I was looking for! I went in on Black Friday and walked out with the third dress I tried on-- at $500 off the original price. You can't beat that! They had a fine selection, even in their sales section. It's a great place to start a search because of the variety. Chances are you'll find what you're looking for. read more

My Maggie Sottero Presca Marie was simply breath-taking, and it was all thanks to Zee. I told her I wanted a vintage look with lace and told her my budget. She showed me the lace section and my two friends and I took our time looking through it. But Zee looked too and pulled the "one" out of the stock room for me. It was two-tiered ivory lace over light gold, and never in a million years would I have picked out that color for myself. But as soon as I put it on, I fell in love, and Zee saw it on my face too, and pointed out I seemed incredibly thrilled. There's more information about my first visit in my first review... Let me say it's my pleasure to report that everything went perfectly and out of all my vendors (and I had some pretty good ones), Zee was definitely the one I never worried about. She was friendly, professional, and completely on top of things throughout the entire process. I cut it close by ordering the gown in December for a June wedding, but the gown arrived a month ahead of time in April and she called me right away to arrange a fitting appointment. The dress itself was a perfect fit in the waist, bust, and hem. As an example of her honesty, Zee recommended I get the factory petite in order to save on alterations--turns out it was indeed the perfect length with my heels and I did not have to hem it in at all. She was candid and experienced, and listened to my opinions, and we ended up with incredibly accurate fit. The only alteration I needed was to add in the bustle (which was beautiful in itself), and Zee charged me a very reasonable price for the work. During the fittings, Zee and her staff were very patient, showing my bridesmaids a couple times how to tie the corset and bustle in the back of the dress and explaining to them how the dress should look (e.g. where the flower belt should lay, tips to making sure the bust filled out in the right places). Three days before the wedding, they had my dress steamed and ready for me. I was stressed out that week, but it really was a happy moment for me to pick up my gown and see the smiling faces of Zee and her assistant. I took the gown out only on the day of the wedding and it was perfect and gorgeous. I had an informal backup dress for the reception in case I got hot or had trouble dancing, but I wore the gown the entire day, and it was quite comfortable. I must have put it on at 3pm and didn't take it off til midnight. I had not problems walking around. I never felt the bust or waist was too tight (and I ate my full share of the appetizers, dinner, and cake). And I danced and swirled for three hours and felt great in the dress! So A+ on the fit and bustle. Honestly, I thought I would want to sell the dress and recoup some of the cost, but my wedding gown was so exquisite and lovely. I really felt beautiful in the dress, and it was worth every penny. I have many fond memories of my wedding gown, and it would be hard for me to part with it. I really am eternally grateful to Zee for picking out the dress and making sure it was perfect. Unlike some of these reviewers, I am a bride who definitely went through the entire process with Zee and her crew, and I HIGHLY recommend her business. With Zee, you'll get her full attention during every visit, and you'll certainly have no worries about your gown on your wedding day. I attached several photos of my gown to the gallery. read more

I've been to many bridal stores and none can compare to Bride's Choice! Z, the owner, is so helpful and isn't pushy at all. She listens to what kind of day and dress you're looking for, and gives her suggestions. They're website is great, so I picked out some styles that I liked beforehand, which helped. Anita was also great- giving her honest opinion whenever I asked. I highly recommend this place over all others. Staff is friendly and the prices are extremely reasonable. I've bought my wedding dress, the bridesmaids dresses, and the tuxes were rented there. I've also had alterations done here since, and couldn't be happier. read more

OK after reading these reviews I made an apt to Brides choice! This was the best day ever! Zee and Lorena where so helpful to my mom and my friends and I. First of all my friend was allowed to come in the dressing room with me! Also why on earth would I want someone to come in the dressing room with me that I don't know! So i think it is nice that they don't come in with u. So whomever said they wont let u that's a lie. Also it is all over the store that on final pick-ups it is cash or charge also its on the receipt. So maybe you should look before you judge. So my day was so pleasant and i bought my wedding gown and brides maids also my mom got her dress there too. I highly recommend this store to anyone. The prices are great and they made me feel like a princess! I have gone to other places and I couldn't look around and they rushed me out of the store. So Brides Choice is a GREAT place to go to. Lori Ann read more

I used bride's choice for my wedding in October 2014. I shopped around at 6 different shops but ended up with Brides choice because they had the biggest selection and had the best customer service. I didn't feel like a customer, I felt like Z was part of the wedding. She was so attentive but also a critical thinker with great insight. I of course ordered a dress 1 size too small and was "to the wire" with the fittings. Z went above and beyond to have me in for multiple fittings with the final, 1 week before the wedding. Z made the timeline a breeze and the dress for perfectly. read more

I made an appointment with Bride's Choice to try on a bridesmaid dress for my friend's wedding. All the bridesmaids are ordering from a shop in NJ and given that I live in MA I wanted to try the dress on, had I had a different experience I would have likely ordered from a local shop that might even take care of any alterations for me. When I made the appointment the woman on the other line seemed too busy to talk to me and basically told me to go in and that they had the dress. After going in I found out that although they carry the designer they do not carry the specific dress. Waste of Time!! Anyway, I asked if they could measure me and recommend a dress size for me to order and I was told they would not measure me. I asked if I could try on other dresses from the same designer and was told only if i can convince the bride to change her mind on the dresses. Ridiculous! That is an afternoon I will never get back. The shop is really outdated and so are the fitting rooms. Even though I had an appointment the women there did not seem too interested to help or talk to me. At least I know where not to go in the future. read more

I recently brought a bridesmaid's dress here to have it let out. It's for a wedding I'm in that's out of town and the original place the dresses were ordered from messed up the sizes on all the dresses. After making me wait over an hour after my scheduled appointment time, the woman (Zee I believe, but I'm not sure because she never even introduced herself) finally came over to help me and was pretty rude and not very friendly. I would be able to see past all that if they had been able to fix the dress, but unfortunately they not only didn't fix it, but they made it worse. She told me they would let it out a 1/2 inch on each side, and when I came back in on the day they told me I could pick it up, the dress was just as tight as it had been when I dropped it off. She tried to tell me that it felt much better to her and that they let it out as much as they could, which again to me seemed like pretty close to nothing at all. We had also discussed during my first appointment having them fix the straps on the dress, which they didn't do because they were incredibly loose and looked ridiculous. Again she tried to tell me that they looked fine, but when I asked a few times if they could fix it she said they could and told me to come back the next day to pick it up. When I came back, I had to wait another 45 minutes and was told they were finishing up the dress. I wasn't able to try it on there, they didn't even offer to have me try it to make sure it fit, and when I got home, I realized that the straps were completely uneven and looked even more ridiculous. I ended up having to take the dress to another place, and the women there confirmed that the dress was barely let out at all and what they did to "let it out" wasn't even the correct way of altering a dress. They were also baffled by what had been done to "fix" the straps of the dress and couldn't believe that someone had charged me for these "alterations". The only good thing I can say is that the other woman who seemed to be the assistant at the store was very friendly and apologized a few times for making me wait. Other than that I will never ever ever go back to this place for anything since they clearly have no idea what they are doing read more

I was quite pleased with our recent experience at Bride's Choice. My MOH/BFF and I went in with a 10:30 appointment on a Saturday morning to try on Bridesmaid's dresses for her. We had looked extensively online, but not yet tried anything on. The girl who was working was gracious, patient, and accommodating. She let us have free reign over their sample stock in back to pull anything and everything we felt like we wanted to try. Then, she set us up in a fitting room and let us have at it. She checked in periodically to see if we needed anything, bringing color swatches etc. for requested designers as we asked for them. However, she was not overbearing and gave us a lot of room to try things on/discuss etc. When we were finished, we had a few we liked best, and she recorded them on file with my account for us. When I told her it was our first time trying on bridesmaids dresses, she not only didn't pressure us to buy, but encouraged us to visit at least 2 other stores before we started making decisions. The only reasons I am not giving 5 stars: 1. The sample sizes were all pretty small, and I would have liked to see a wider selection. It was hard in some cases to tell how things actually fit. 2. The store had a slightly funky smell, especially near the fitting room. If they carry the designer we end up deciding on, I will definitely be back. read more

I recently bought my wedding dress here. I did like that you can browse and pick your own dresses (and there seemed to be no limit to how many I could try on). Prices were also very reasonable. I didn't like that you can't take any pictures. I have a very hard time deciding how I look in something by looking in the mirror. I finally found a dress I liked. I ordered it in January and was told it would arrive end of April. I called in April and was told to call back first week in May. I called in May and was told it would be in the 1st 2 weeks of June (wedding 1st week of september). It finally arrived, but when I got it, it was missing a belt that I was sure was supposed to come with it. The owner wasn't there when I went to get my dress. The store was a million degrees inside, so it made me even more uncomfortable. The girl who assisted me at the store was very sweet though. All in all, I wouldn't want to do business there again. I think that when making such a major purchase, you should walk away feeling good, which I did't unfortunately. read more

I had a wonderful experience at Bride's Choice. Lorena and Z were so helpful and I found my dream dress during my visit, but I did not feel pressured to buy it. Lorena found several options that fit my style but also gave me and my friends time to search through the racks ourselves. They even figured out what alterations I would need and included that in my purchase price. What a stress-free experience. Thank you! read more

I made an appointment to Bride's Choice with my friend and daughter to search for my bridal gown. Anita quickly helped me and took us into their huge stock room. She explained the layout, what kinds of dresses were where, and what we needed to do. So we started searching and pulled five dresses for me to try on. Once we had the dresses picked out, Anita led me straight to a fitting room and helped me do the back of the dresses and made sure my room was only had one dress at a time so I wouldn't be crowded. She was very honest with her opinions, and extremely friendly. She was also quick to answer any questions we had. There was another sales woman there who was very friendly and even though she was not helping me, she made sure to compliment me when trying on the dresses. I found a dress at Bride's Choice that I may end up buying, but I'm not sure yet. The only down side to my visit was that I only tried on the five dresses. I had expected more to be shown to me once I had tried on the five and knew what I preferred and what looked good on me, but I wasn't given any suggestions for other dresses to try on. I'll definitely go back, at least to try on more dresses. Anita was really helpful and they have a HUGE selection. Check them out if you're looking for a wedding dress! They also looked to have a big selection of bridesmaid dresses too. read more

I can't say enough about Maria. She saved my wedding dress 2 days before my wedding. I went somewhere else for my alterations and I left with my dress a few days before my wedding. I wasn't satisfied with my alterations and I didn't trust the other person to fix it the way I wanted since it took 3 visits already to get it to where it was and she basically sent me home with an unfinished dress. Maria took me in the day I called and was willing to fix the top in 2 days. I went to try it on the day before my wedding and it fit perfectly. Maria did an amazing job and was so accommodating. I should have come here for all my alterations to begin with. You can tell Maria takes pride in her work and would do an amazing job altering a dress from start to finish. I will definitely be returning here for any dress in the future! read more

This is the place to go if you are looking for bridesmaid dresses! I've actually been here before to try on a bridesmaid dress for my sister-in-law's wedding and remember it being a pleasant experience so I went back once I was engaged for my own bridesmaid dresses. First off, don't let the appearance fool you. From the outside, it looks small but inside, it is big. Although the salon itself is dated with their decor, their staff and dress selection is unbeatable. They let you look through their racks of bridesmaids dresses without rushing you when you're browsing. Their selection was endless in all sorts of designers.I was specifically looking for Bell Levkoff dresses and I'm pretty confident in saying they had almost every single on of his styles in store to try on. Maria helped me throughout the entire appointment and she is amazing. Very knowledgeable and friendly which made the entire experience enjoyable. She was able to make a number of recommendations for different dresses we would like while trying on too.We ended up being there for two hours! Not once did Maria rush us and at one point, we definitely overlapped into a bride's appt but Maria did her best to accommodate both of us. They also worked with us on our budget and dropped the price on the dress for us! I had gone to two salons before this for a bridesmaid dress and didn't like the vibe or staff, not to mention the same dress was priced higher at those stores than Bride's Choice. Once coming here, it was a no brainer to order from them based on our customer service and pricing experience. read more

I had been searching everywhere for a mother of the groom dress. I had been to malls, north shore, south shore and metrowest. I had spent hours on the internet. I was not finding anything that would be age appropriate for me, and still look nice without looking matronly. Someone told me about Bride's Choice, which from the outside seems small, but once inside you realize it's qualtiy over quantity. The owner asked me a few questions, and then pulled 4 or 5 dresses from the racks. I could have bought any one of them. The owner knows her stuff, and I had wished I had gone there first instead of the endless trips to the malls. And later, when I saw the pictures from the wedding, I was delightfully surprised at how well the dress had photographed, the detailing popped in the pictures. read more

I was only involved with Bride's Choice as a bridesmaid, but I could not speak more highly of them. By no fault of anyone's but my own, I ordered my bridesmaid dress too small. My measurements had me between two sizes, and I went with the smaller one, only to gain weight in between then and the dress coming in. When I called the shop to see what my options were, Zee was unbelievably helpful. She talked me through what I should ask the tailor and what my options/timeline would be for ordering extra fabric. When taking it out wasn't going to be enough, she spent almost 2 hours checking their own sample dresses and various other alternatives to help me in the jam I had gotten myself into. Thankfully, I was able to get a new dress from a sample rack at another boutique, but Zee's dedication to helping me out of a situation I had created, when I was just a bridesmaid, not even a bride, spoke volumes about their professionalism and patience. Would highly recommend! read more

Not the experience you want when looking for your wedding gown. No freedom to look at dresses on your own or take pictures. I had an appointment yet the girl "helping" me was up and down the stairs waiting on people coming in to pick up clothing from the alteration business they also run. My mother and I were left standing there waiting for her to return and continue finding dresses for me to try on. She came back and said we needed to wait longer because there was one fitting room and someone else was using it. The other person using it was having alterations done and didn't appear to be close to done. I'm not a picky bride - I'm very patient and don't need the royal treatment, but this was far from a comfortable experience. Poor customer service and too strict! read more

I didn't like my experience at Bride's Choice. They were under staffed when we showed up at the appointment. They were running late with appointments, and rushing through the dresses. We weren't allowed to take pictures or browse through the dresses. My sisters and mom stood awkwardly while they ran into the back and came out with dresses that didn't fit the description of what we were looking for. I didn't like the dresses the consultant pulled, even after giving additional feedback about each dress. Compared to the other dressed I had tried on, they seemed rather expensive, too. read more

Stopped in last Saturday during the snow to check out some of the dresses in stock for my daughters up and coming prom. We did not have an appointment bur they did bring us upstairs to look around. There was a big selection especially if you are looking for sizes 8-12. Unfortunately my daughter is much smaller than these sizes. Lorena Livoli helped us shift threw the dresses for smaller ones and the ones that would be alterable for my daughter. She was extremely professional and very helpful. I Would highly recommend making an appointment to see Lorena if you are getting married or just looking for a dress for a special occasion. She did have to leave us for an appointment but her coworker quickly came over to assist us and we ended up getting the dress of my daughters dreams at a fantastic price! So glad that we didn't over look the local dress shop. read more

Bride's Choice is Terrific! I called them and asked if I could stop by the shop at that moment essentially moving my appointment up 3 hours and they said it was no problem. I worked with Maria and also received special attention from the owner Z. Maria was amazing she was patient and listened to what I liked. As she brought me the dresses each one got closer and closer to "The one!" The dress I really wanted was over budget but Z gave me significant discounts to help stay within budget! She also let me pay in installments. I also purchased my vail there and Z gave me $100 off the head piece which I will purchase later! I can't say enough about Bride's Choice Maria was very attentive and so easy to work with and Z was absolutely terrific. I had such a wonderful experience with them! read more

I would give Bride's Choice one star if it weren't for Maria being so sweet. My biggest issue with Bride's Choice was how rundown the store is; Dingy, dirty and even had an unpleasant odor. I am by no means a high maintenance bride, (I actually ended up purchasing my dress at a small shop in Fall River) but I will say its very difficult to feel like buying the gown of your dreams in this place. Maria was a doll; friendly, welcoming and truly tried her best, but had a little trouble grasping the vintage beaded look I was going for. I don't believe this shop had many options to begin with although they did carry a few popular well known designers. By the end of my appointment Maria had picked up on the feel of what I wanted but there just weren't very many dresses that were not large tulle ball gowns or all over lace fit and flares. Based on the other reviews, I believe the unfriendly, cold woman there was Zee. I'm shocked to learn that this is the shop's owner as you think she would be warm and inviting, not look as though she couldn't wait for you to leave. She didn't say much and I don't think she smiled once. read more

The owner is not very personable. She asked what I wanted but after I said lace she just started pulling a bunch of random dresses that didn't fit what I was looking for. She didn't take the time to get an idea of what I wanted. The dresses were poor quality and super uncomfortable. I would not suggest this place to anyone read more

Wonderful experience. My wedding dress was made in New York City but I did not want to travel back and forth for all of the fittings, Zee did beautiful work on it as we approached my wedding day. All of my bridesmaid also used Zee, the hem lines and fit of their dresses come out impeccable. I highly recommend Zee/Brides Choice! read more

This was by far this WORST salon in the Boston area I have gone to. I got there on-time and the store was empty, it took about 2 mins for someone to come out and greet me. When she did iw as told to stay where I was and had to wait another 5 minutes before anyone came to actually help me (keep in mind no one else was in the store). When she finally came out, she asked what I was looking for in a dress. it was clear she half listened because after I gave her my wish list, she just walked away (giving no suggestions or help me look through the dresses). She was gone for another liek 15 minutes so I had to move the dresses myself into the dressing room. I waited AGAIN for her, and when she came up was like oh you haven't changed yet, so I changed and walked out of the dressing room so she could tie up the corset back and she was NOWHERE to be found! I waited for her for another few minutes holding up the dress, until she decided to help. Midwasy through lacing me up she left again to help another customer that had just come in, and then came back and walked me over to the mirror. She gave no commentary and seemed COMPLETELY disinterested. ITeh 2nd dress I tried on, she refused to tie me up unless I liked the dress enough that it was worth her time (I mean how do I know if I like it if I can't even see what it looks like on). I couldn't wait to get out of there but wanted to try on one of the dresses on the manikin. She brought out a similiar cut dress b/c she didn't want to undress the manikin unless I liked the silhouette and the neckline. I tried that was on and decided I wanted to try the one that was on the manikin, she said well are you making a decision today, because if you're not making a decision today, I don't want to take the dress off the manikin if you're coming back. I was SHOCKED at how incredibly unhelpful and BAD the service was. I will NEVER go back there, and I will encourage NO ONE to go their either. read more
