Non traditional bride review - Beautiful gowns, but not out-of-the-box…read more This was a hard one to rate. I was initially excited because the website seemed so different from other bridal shops and even specified a black dress and pants suits and breaking out of the mold. I spent time filling out a questionnaire including a link to my Pinterest board. When I arrived the sales person Cora seemed somewhat surprised to see me and did not have many samples picked out (like other stores will do) and did not seem to have read my questionnaire. As a last minute bride, there were off the rack options that I could choose from which I appreciated. BUT I feel like the way the store markets their brand is very different than what they actually offer. Other than some Pop culture decor, I did not see the store as being edgier than other bridal shops. There was one black gown in the display window and a handful of statement pieces on a tiny trunk show rack, but I found myself bored of the explosion of white dresses (and champagne being the primary alternative color) and craving the experience I expected from the description paragraph on the website. I rated it a four because I am taking ownership of not fully vetting all of the designers they carry - but hope one day I can find a non-cliche shop that doesn't feel like it's trying so hard with the aesthetic like Flutter.

She helped draw out sketches to help me get a better idea of what my dress would look like. She was very quick to response to emails and questions. Although I did not go with The Blushing Room, because of my very tight budget, I HIGHLY recommend going with Christina when designing a wedding dress. The prices are below the average wedding dress cost and the quality of each dress is outstanding. Designing a dress for such a beautiful day makes it even more beautiful and personal and you.

I have been going to a good amount of bridal shops in Minnesota and I have to say the customer…read moreservice here and expertise is incredibly amazing! I had Liliya as my profesional stylist and she was simply amazing! I had so so so much fun! Usually going to a bridal shop can be daunting because I'm not the typical model size to fit into gowns given I'm petite, midsize and curvie can be tricky to try on dresses. Lili was so helpful and honestly she got me into a lot of dresses that I thought I wouldn't be able to fit in and I just couldn't help but laugh at how much fun it was trying on dresses. It was a workout but so worth it ! They have a lot of designer dresses and honestly a bit of everything ! Their website says " With a modern vision and great taste, My Darling Bridal has brought in dresses from all over the world into the comfort of a historical boutique. We curated a collection of beautiful gowns that will create a once in a lifetime experience for the bride and her loved ones. My Darling Bridal is a Christian based bridal shop in the heart of Saint Paul, MN. We are passionate about our values, beliefs , good tea and beautiful things. My Darling is proud to carry designers from all over the world! Many of the them are exclusive to our store." I honestly had so much fun and ended up falling in love with so many dresses !

So when I started thinking about a wedding dress, I wanted to try to find a vintage number that fit both me and my style. I was so happy to learn about Andrea's because I wanted to shop leisurely (not get into an ebay bidding war) and try thing on (even if the measurements seem right, it may not look good once it's on). The shop is loosely organized by era, but you can pull from any rack if something catches your eye. I especially liked Andrea's vision in seeing how a dress could be altered--different neckline, shorter length, a change to the bodice--to fit the designs I was most interested in. A nice, low-pressure environment, but don't bring your whole entourage. There really isn't room for more than one or two extra people, and the dressing rooms are pretty small considering the volume of some of the dresses. Obviously the assortment changes all the time, but the day I was there I saw dresses ranging from about $300 to $1600. I was also impressed by the selection of vintage accessories, including sweet birdcage veils and embellished headbands.

I had such a horrible experience with TWR…read more The dresses and space are beautiful. I had a great time until they dropped the ball. I received my dress 5 weeks late from their contractual delivery date with no explanation, proactive communication, or apology. I was assured that I would not need to rush order the dress. The dress fit me beautifully in the store, but I was encouraged to order closer to my listed size according to the designer chart, so I wasn't worried about it being late until I tried it on and it was 2-3 sizes too large. The tailoring appointments they offered were for dates before my dress even arrived. Being out of state, I had to bring my dress to another tailor that a friend recommended, who explained the dress would have to be recut and entirely reconstructed because it was so large. My measurements had not changed from the time I tried on the dress on at TWR 7 months earlier. The tailoring estimate was nearly 40% of the purchase price of the dress, so I reached out to TWR to express my frustration. They offered only $150 for a "rush fee" because it was late. They refused to acknowledge any accountability until I told them I lodged official complaints. When I finally spoke to Carmen, she accused me of sending fake pictures, my tailor of being dishonest, implied that I should be grateful because "some girls don't even get their dresses," and told me that I hurt her feelings telling her I didn't trust TWR to do any further business with or to stick to a contract when she offered to do the alterations in a few hours (the alterations took 3 days at my tailor). Their contract did not seem to come with any sort of integrity on their end. Your wedding gown is an investment and brides are under such tight timelines that you expect a luxury boutique to respect. Although many brides have had great experiences here, I can only speak for mine, and I would not trust or recommend TWR to do business with.

There are private suites and so much more room which allows for more comfort. The budget friendly options start at $800 (used to be $500 but prices have gone up considering the cost of everything going up which is understandable). This was the old The Woods gift shop. I'm so happy this business was able to secure a lovely location. Wishing you all the best! Will recommend to brides.

This was the first bridal store my daughter and I visited. The newly remodeled building was nice,…read morebut we were told to remove our shoes when we first walked in and not offered the slippers that apparently there were. I felt that we were scoffed at because it was just my daughter and I (not a huge group there to support). I feel like being offered a bottle of water would be a nice touch since you have to pay to even have an appt. I wasn't allowed to "shop" the store with my daughter and she was really rushed and pressured to try on dresses that weren't her style. We were never given a moment to even talk about the dresses privately, it all just felt very impersonal. She asked the canned questions of course, but it didn't come across as genuine. I had high hopes, but it fell short. Will definitely purchase from a different boutique.

May,2025, we went looking for bridesmaids dresses but didn't find any that were forest green. ‍ (No pressure to buy something that wouldn't work.) But we did find a Mother of the Groom Dress!!! Huge win!!! Today, my two daughters, a friend and I went to look for prom dresses. My daughter tried on six dresses. Her friend tried on two. Both girls bought a dress. My daughter also got earrings and a purse that matched her dress perfectly. Both girls were extremely happy with their dresses. Both girls were excited about the dress their friend found. And I was happy to pay $50 for a prom dress! We "may have" overstayed our appointment. Genavieve told us her next appointment was arriving soon and they arrived while the girls were still looking at jewelry. No pressure to leave. We paid and left, extremely happy. What a great day!

She asked my daughter several questions then pulled several dresses that were on target. It was a very busy place. We had the 'rose room' in the back which was nice. It was lovely that they offered water and champagne to us. My daughter changed in a nearby room then had to walk to the 'stage' where we could see the dress. The lighting and mirrors were all nice. A similar style dress was a few hundred dollars more expensive here than in another shop we visited. Taylor did a nice job. She didn't ask as many questions as the other shop we went to but the dresses she pulled were right on. Parking in this area can be challenging but the nearby ramp provided ample parking. The shop was very cute and cozy. There were at least 3-5 groups in there so it was quite loud and busy. While we didn't get our dress from here, we had a very good experience. This shop was highly recommended by my daughter's friends.

You get to answer a few question in the beginning to help you out the day of. This shop has beautiful beautiful dresses. I loved their selection and fell in love with a dress here and my gosh I can't stop thinking about it. I had such a great team (bridesmaids) helping me out and honestly can't rave enough about this place. It's so hard picking a gown and having a stylist helping you out go though different styles is super helpful. I didn't feel pressured to make a decision then about the dress but I left feeling like I had found the one. Now I did continue dress shopping as I'm pretty early on my journey but know that when it comes to making a decision at the end it will come down to one of the dresses in this store ( not the one pictured here) Honestly trying on dresses can be uncomfortable for people that don't have the type of body dresses are designed for so I'm keeping that in mind. I'm petite, midsize, and on the curvier side so I already knew when I tried on dresses they wouldn't fit me completely or some wouldn't go passed my hips which was fine but I was still made super comfortable! To get park here you are definitely going to want to use the parking garage near by or try to find street parking but that can be a bit difficult. I had suck a great experience here and will be coming back again to try on the dress I fell in love with.

Lindsey followed up later the next week and helped answer all my questions about how to order my dress and when I can expect it. The Wedding Shoppe also had a ton of Kennedy Blue bridesmaid dresses and swatches which was so helpful to share with my bridal party! All in all, this was a great experience, I can't wait to pick up my dress this summer.
