Every time I came out of the dressing room, she had more for me! All of the dresses she had were unique, classy and well made. She answered all of my questions and was very supportive, even helping me zip up my dress when I couldn't! I also loved that this was an independent and woman owned business. I'll be going back for all of my special occasions :)

I had such a wonderful experience with Maria at Bridal Showcase. From the beginning, she was…read moreincredibly kind, knowledgeable, attentive, and genuinely invested in helping me find the right dress, not just selling me one. Maria took the time to really understand how I wanted to feel on my wedding day, my personal style, my venue, and what would work best for my body while still being comfortable and lightweight enough to actually enjoy wearing all day. She even pulled select dresses from the back that weren't on the floor because she knew they fit what I was looking for and were within my budget. What I appreciated most was that there was absolutely no pressure. Maria held my dress for me while I went to FIVE other bridal shops because I wanted to be completely sure I had found the one. After trying on so many other dresses, I came right back to Maria and Bridal Showcase and purchased it! You can really feel how much experience Maria has and how much care she puts into what she does. The quality of the dresses and the level of personal attention, customization, presence, and consideration she gives you is something I just didn't experience at the larger bridal shops. I would recommend Bridal Showcase and especially Maria to anyone shopping for a wedding dress. She made such an important part of the wedding experience feel thoughtful, personal, and special. I'm so grateful I found my dress here!

I am so over the moon to share that I found my dress at the Bustle! It did take a couple of tries…read moreto find "the one" but ultimately I found her ;) For my first visit to the Bustle, I did one of their large party reservations. They had champagne for everyone and it was truly a blast, but slightly overwhelming with so many personality types on my side of things. I recommend this to get the experience, but just want to give a heads up on that. I also had fallen in love with a sample dress that just did not fit my body unfortunately, though Tam & Melody tried their best to see how they might be able to modify it. At the end of the day it was just too much to do to the dress. For my second visit, I tried on a dress that I was initially interested in but didn't have time to try on at my first visit. And... well, this is the one. I tried on a few others as well, and ultimately left thinking about that first one. Melody was so awesome for not pushing me to make a decision, I really hate that feeling. So I was grateful to her for being so patient with me- this is a big decision!! At my final visit, it was just to re-try on MY dress and then one that was super similar to it. And that just locked in my decision! I am sooo happy I found my dress and I am very grateful to Melody for all her help

Nedra and Jenna at Posh were AMAZING. I came here for what was my second bridal try on appointment…read moreanywhere and had the best time. I ended up finding my dress and veil here and getting it preserved through them. Parking is through the other side of the street, away from where the entrance to Posh is. There was a decent variety of options here considering how small the store is. I noted some preferred designers that they happened to have and helped me focus on those areas when I was picking ones to try on. Jenna was the one who assisted for my actual try ons. I opted to go alone so it was nice that she was giving me good feedback without being pushy. She paid attention to what I liked about certain dresses and ultimately recommended a few other dresses that had them. My dress ended up being one Jenna added for me! It was perfect because I was debating between something super classic vs romantic and she knew immediately that she could find me something in the middle. I got alterations done here as well as my veil. Altogether I was able to stay within my budget, though alterations were definitely a bit pricier which I know is common. Monika their seamstress was also great at giving me recommendations on what would look good without me really overthinking it. After my wedding I came back to get my dress preserved. They send it out to a third party but I was glad it was through them so I know I could trust it. I definitely recommend Posh for your bridal needs! Be sure to schedule an appointment and text them. They're incredibly responsive and helpful!

I had a very disappointing experience with Freedom Brides…read more One of my biggest concerns was the lack of communication and customer service. Throughout the process, I was the one who had to repeatedly reach out for updates rather than receiving proactive communication from the business. Months after making payments, I was still being told that pricing and estimates were pending. When it came time to move forward, I was informed that the seamstress needed for my project was not available. I was later offered a partial refund, but as of the date of this review, I have still not received it. The owner also did not have the details of my situation correct and stated that I had gone in for multiple fittings, when I had only met with the seamstress once. This added to the confusion and frustration. After this experience, I worked with a bridal shop in Carlsbad, and the difference in customer service was night and day. They were organized, communicated clearly, followed up proactively, and kept me informed throughout the process without me having to constantly reach out for updates. As a customer, I value communication, transparency, and follow-through. Unfortunately, this experience was stressful and left me feeling unsupported during an important time in my wedding planning. Based on my experience, I would not recommend this business.

It pains me to write this because I wish nothing more than to have had the wonderful experience…read moremany people on here had. I specifically chose Miryana because of the reviews I read on here. I dropped off my wedding gown a week ago. I had little time bc we spontaneously decided to get married. She assured me she would have it done. Come yesterday afternoon, I picked up my gown and was horrified at what I saw. She even told me not to try on again bc "it was beautiful." I trusted her. Unfortunately that was not the case. The hem looks like my toddler cut it (please see photos). My straps were uneven. I went back this morning in tears. I requested a partial refund and she asked if I was crazy, that she did not work for free. She begged for me to let her fix it. She even started cutting more at the bottom with scissors as my gown lay on the floor. I asked her to please stop. We leave tomorrow morning for our wedding destination and I did not feel at all comfortable leaving my gown with her again. I will now have to pay someone else to try and amend what has been done which will be difficult due to time constraints. I am horrified and have submitted a dispute with my bank. I would like to believe she means well but if you cannot deliver what you guarantee then please just don't accept the job. I'm heartbroken. It might very well be that it is time fir her to sit back and enjoy life. I was also unsettled by her begging not to leave her a bad review and telling me she was "a little old lady." I felt pressured not to leave a bad review however after much thought decided it was important to share my experience.

Garment Gourmet came up in my online search for an affordable wedding dress. You see, the thought…read moreof going into a typical bridal store and having a 'Say Yes To The Dress' experience really put me off to the whole idea of shopping for one...since I hate shopping for clothes to begin with. If it were solely up to me, I would get married in yoga pants and a ponytail...but we make sacrifices for the person we love. Pros of my visit: Plenty of parking, even in the back. The store has a large selection. The front of the store has formal dress, quinceañera dresses, and even some wedding accessories. The wedding gowns are in the back, sorted by size. Some of them are NWT (new with tags), but most are pre-owned and gently used. There are name brands there. I saw a few Maggie Sotero dresses. No pushy salespeople, friendly and welcoming owner. Cons: The dressing rooms are small and there's no air circulation. Expect to get a workout trying on dresses. You go through the dresses yourself and pull off the rack. I sort of expected a little more since they advertise offering appointments to try on wedding dresses. Walk-ins are accepted too....not sure why you need an appointment for since you're going through the gowns yourself. The prices...woah. I know how consignment works- everyone needs to make a profit (seller and the store), but I've seen brand new dresses for less. Worth a trip if you're just browsing. 3 stars.
