Eva is wonderful! She made my daughter's wedding dress shopping effortless! (I also purchased my Mother of the Bride dress from her) She has unlimited patience and is very kind. She also includes alterations-which was a huge convenience-and her tailoring skills are excellent. We were both so comfortable on the big day and received many compliments. I would not hesitate to recommend her! read more

Eva was awesome. Knowledgeable, professional and patient. Very helpful to my daughter in choosing her gown. Highly recommend

Was in a wedding for one of my friends and all of us bridesmaids ordered dresses from Eva back in March 2021. We didn't receive our dresses until mid September due to the corona virus and a bottleneck at the dress manufacturer. Eva was super accommodating and worked endlessly to get our dresses altered in time for the wedding. Eva is so personable and super friendly. I would recommend using her for your wedding or for your bridesmaids! read more

Eva is incredible! I can not recommend this place enough! The prices are very reasonable, her quality of work is excellent and she is so accommodating and kind to work with. I was very anxious about the process and my dress fitting correctly and she never made me feel like I was a pain. I will 100% be back in the future! Thank you, Eva! read more

I bought my wedding dress from Eva. She was wonderful! She had great selections to chose from and was so helpful finding a dress that looked just perfect! She tailored it to fit me just right! My girls got their dresses there as well. She was so accommodating with all of our schedules. All of their dresses looked fabulous! I highly recommend Classic Brides By Eva! read more

She ordered the wrong size bridesmaid dress and wouldn't admit her mistake, telling me instead that I had just gotten fat and that was why the dress was too small. She said she would do the alterations for free, and I sure got what I paid for -- check out the photo! They look like they were done by a drunk five-year-old. She was nasty on the phone and didn't even make an honest effort to fix her mistake. Why buy anything here when you can go to plenty of other bridal shops that actually care about their customers? read more

Eva is amazing. A sweetheart. Our 3 daughters bought their bridal gowns from her and those of their bridesmaids/flower girls. I bought all three of my mother of the bride gowns from her. She is a true gem. Very accommodating and helpful down to the last detail. We love Eva. She goes above and beyond to make the entire experience special and pleasant. Please visit her and you will know right away that this is where you should purchase all your wedding attire. You won't regret shopping at her lovely boutique. read more

Very helpful to get my mom a dress! Great selection and on time for our appointment. Would definitely recommend others to go see Eva as well! read more

Great bridal shop!!! I had an appt for Saturday morning and showed up with a large group in tow. Eva welcomed us and showed us both the sample dresses and the selection of gowns I could order. There were so many great options!!! She offered to help us or leave us to try gowns on in the room on our own. Because we had so many people we opted to do it ourselves, but she came in every 15 minutes or so to check in and offer helpful comments. I ended up picking a sample dress which was 50% off retail and fits great already. She offered to hold it for up to a month without deposit if we wanted to shop around but I knew it was the one and we put money down. I love that the alterations are included and done by Eva herself. I can't wait to go back and work with her on making the dress perfect for my day. read more

Eva has been fantastic during my wedding planning process. I contacted her late last year asking about a specific bridesmaid dress I had a very difficult time locating. While she didn't carry it in her shop she offered to bring in a sample of the specific dress I was looking for. All of our communication was over the phone as I live in New Hampshire, and my bridesmaids from CT called me and sent photos from her shop to confirm if the dress was the right fit. Since we all agreed on the dress she took orders and I had my bridesmaids all call her individually for sizing and payment and she took care of the order. She has made this experience so incredibly easy for me and my bridesmaids. read more

Small bridal shop...definitely not for large groups. With that being said, friendly & accommodating & the best prices around! Free alterations are an added plus! Eva was phenomenal! read more

I would definitely recommend! Eva is very easy to work with. I happen to be in the neighborhood on Black Friday and wanted to stop in to look around. She is appointment only however she had a break in between clients so she gladly took me in and let me try on dresses. She was willingly to work with my budget and she was very honest with me and wasn't pushy at all. I appreciated that. I chose a dress at another place but I'm sure I will work with her again in the future. read more

I was so nervous getting a dress for my son's wedding. Eva was patient and kind. She new exactly what would be flattering to my figure. She was skilled with a perfect fit. I received so many compliments. I felt beautiful too. Thanks. Go to Eva for a perfect dress. read more

Great little local store! Eva us very sweet & very laid back. I showed up to my appointment with 6 people in tow. I was afraid it would be too small for all of us, but we all fit just fine. Highly recommended. read more

I can't say enough wonderful things about this woman! Eva is amazing, she is so helpful, generous, and talented! She goes above and beyond for her customers, working late nights and opening her shop when it is normally closed. I have used her for my wedding as well as many weddings that I have been in and she has always been amazing!! The shop is small but the service is impeccable!! You get the service that you would want at the bigger, more posh like bridal stores....If I could give this shop more stars I would. The friends that I have recommended this shop to have also been very pleased with Eva's!! She is one of a kind!! read more

Eva is wonderful - she is very relaxed and accommodating. She wants you to take your time and peruse without being bombarded. My friend got her dress and bridesmaid dresses there so when it was my turn I went with my bridal party. I ordered my dress last minute and Eva did the alterations in record time. All my girls loved their dresses (and the prices). I just brought another bride there a few weeks ago and she bought her dress too! Such a wonderful shop! read more

Eva is the best! My sister in law and I both ordered our bridesmaids dresses through Eva and I ordered my wedding dress as well. She included alterations in the price of the dresses and did a fantasic job! Shes is very nice and extremely helpful. I cant recommend her enough! read more

The best part about this place is Eva herself. I went to so many bridal boutiques in search of a dress and found the sales people to be pushy and obnoxious. Eva lets you look through and do your thing and comes to help when you need it. She never made me feel like I had to buy anything and I felt zero pressure. I wish I went here from the beginning but it's literally on the street I grew up on so I never thought to go. The place itself is very cute and she even does FREE ALTERATIONS AND STORAGE! How can you beat that??? I was looking for a plain dress and a lot of the dresses were lacy but the one I ended up purchasing was a new style not yet on the floor yet. I had a difficult time everywhere, though, trying to find a plain fitted style. Will recommend to everyone I know who is engaged! read more

Eva is wonderful. I purchased my bridal gown with Eva and I have been very happy with her from the beginning. She is not pushy and allowed me take my time while trying on gowns. She encouraged me to take photos and made recommendations when asked. I went to some other boutiques but I knew I wanted to purchase my dress from Eva. She does all alterations herself and does a beautiful job. She has also been very flexible with my schedule since I live out of town. I highly recommend Eva for bridal and special occasion dresses. read more

Eva is awesome. She accommodated all seven of my girls. One being where she basically had to take in the entire dress she remove parts of it. She just wanted to do everything to make sure everyone was happy and comfortable. Eva also helped during a flower girl dress crisis with another boutique. She was the most pleasant and accommodating person to work with as a bride. I highly recommend her. Plus free alterations is s plus! Great job Eva! read more

Eva altered my bridesmaid dress and made it fit perfectly! I can't recommend her enough - she did three separate alterations and listened each time to make it perfect. read more

Never had a bad experience! My sister was married December of 2011 and we used Eva's for our bridesmaids dresses. The experience was so wonderful a few of the bridesmaids that were getting married within the last two years, have also used her. All of my dresses came in almost perfectly fitting, and the alterations that were needed were free. I've had several other items altered by her and she has never disappointed. She has a great personality to boot! read more

I went into the store and almost walked right out. I went to try on bridal gowns intending to buy and the consultant, while she was nice, she was not helpful in the slightest. She was very old and I was confident that she could help me find something new and different. Also, she didn't pull any gowns for me, but instead told me to look at the dresses and try on what I wanted. I tried on 2 and my mother in law helped me as the consultant left. I left and don't intend to go back for any occasion. read more

Over the years my daughter has gotten formal dresses for dances. She can't wait to get engaged (soon) so she can shop at Eva's for her wedding gown and bridesmaid dresses. Eva is a great business woman who cares about helping customers find what they need and LOVE. Her free alterations are a bonus as she is a skillful seamstress as well. She has been helping brides well before owning her own shop. She helped me find my wedding gown 29 years ago !!Can't wait to see you again Eva. read more

Eva was amazing! I had been searching for the perfect wedding dress, and most shops I had gone to were very pushy and relatively unhelpful. Eva set up a room for myself and my girlfriends, and was incredibly helpful. I found my dream dress, and Eva even comped my alterations! I couldn't believe it! I was so happy with my dress and veil, the alterations were perfect, and my experience was amazing. Definitely recommend. read more
