We had a great experience with Rebecca! Although we didn't find the dress we were looking for she was a wonderful consultant. She allowed us to pick what we wanted to try, in addition to others that matched our vibe, and helped us narrow down the exact dress type we are seeking. As a group of three spectators for our bride, the space had ample space and seating so we could take it in with comfort and ease. read more

Went with a friend who is getting married. Our other friend made an appt so our friend could look at veils. The gal who waited on her was really nice. The shop is so cute and clean. Great selection that was very organized. They even have cute little shirts and Jean jackets that say bride. read more

See all

I recently said yes to the dress here at Elope Bride & I'd recommend this shop to everyone/anyone looking for bridal attire. This was my first time trying dresses on and Josie made that experience PERFECT for me and my family answering all our questions with kindness and professionalism. Josie is the literal best! I'm so thankful we made the drive from Orlando - for anyone thinking about making the trip, do it! You will not be disappointed! read more

I said YES to the dress here at Elope! I live in Lakeland and drive by this location daily. I've seen the dresses in the window and started following them on social media. I saw a few in their inventory that peaked my interest and thought it would be great to buy local. My bridesmaids are mostly out of state so I created a Teams meeting for them to "attend" the shopping event. Tiffany was fantastic. She gave me free rein to pick any dresses I wanted to try. She placed my computer in the perfect spot to allow my bridesmaids to see everything that was happening. The very first dress I put on brought literal tears to my eyes. It fit, it checked all my boxes and it just felt like it was mine Every dress after this dress was compared. Tiffany helped me zip, button, fluff each dress as I tried them on. She made suggestions and recommendations. When I came back to "the one" she added flowers and a veil.... I found my dress!!! Thank you Tiffany for taking the time to let me be sure I had the one. Thank you for including my "girls" and for making my mom and bonus daughter feel comfortable. Thank you for your incredible personality and your sweet disposition. YOU made this a great experience read more

Elope Bride - Bridal Near Me - Lakeland, Florida

This place was amazing! I had Rebecca who was so sweet! She immediately found the dress I loved online and pulled other options that were similar. She let me try on multiple dresses, veils, and inlays. She told me how we could even customize some dresses to create my perfect one! I didn't feel rushed and it was an amazing experience. Bonus point they have a 10% discount for teachers! read more

Wow. Look no further! This was an amazing experience and I left with a gorgeous dress. Kathleen was phenomenal. Long story short, after a wedding dress fiasco I was left with less than two weeks. I discovered Elope while and had an appointment by 3 PM. Despite my chaos and arriving late with a three year-old in tow, Kathleen made me feel completely at ease. She was so friendly and patient, right away I was sure I would find a dress and relaxed. The store is fairly new and I had not seen any reviews, but I had seen reviews from other dress stores. Most had terrible reviews so I kind of expected this no matter where you went... But you cannot go wrong here. Also worth mentioning, many reviews talked about feeling pressured to buy, and do so outside of their price range. Not only zero pressure but she was fantastic about gently guiding me away from dresses that were over my price range. That said, I'm not a very good listener and ended up with a more expensive dress than I planned, but 100% my doing and totally worth it. The dress doesn't even need alterations! There is a good range of prices, and affordable. They were all beautiful! NOT related to Elope... One last piece of advice based on my own experience - ordering online even when you think you don't want to spend on a dress - The dresses look terrible in person, even tho they are mostly like the photo. And they make it impossible to return- IF it even shows up. Hindsight- spending the extra money for a dress I will actually use and the special experience of trying on dresses in person. read more

My daughter found her perfect dress here with Tiffany's outstanding assistance! We couldn't believe the more-than-reasonable prices, and how amenable they were to accommodating certain requirements within the dress. The selection of styles, sizes, colors - oh my gosh, we had so much fun! Thank you, Tiffany, for making the experience one we will always remember! read more
