Could not say enough great things about this place!!! This is how bridal shopping should be!! They walked me through every step of the process, even parts that seemed obvious like how to walk out and get feedback from others. They give you privacy, help you process through things while also giving you space to think and breathe. You're ONLY person in the shop so all their time is on you. They call you on the phone before to get a sense for you and what you want and they are truly the best most comforting and supportive customer service. I got my dress off the rack so I got to take it with me back to DC. I would recommend 11 out of 10 times! I went to one other place in KC before this to at least get an idea of what I wanted and it was a night and day difference in experience. Thank you high vibe bride! read more

High Vibe Bride - Bridal Near Me - Mission, Kansas

I cannot say enough wonderful things about High Vibe Bride. From the very first interaction through alterations, the entire experience was thoughtful, personal, and genuinely joyful. This is my second wedding, and that context matters. During my first wedding, dress shopping at large bridal stores was stressful, overwhelming, and impersonal. I felt rushed and unseen. I chose High Vibe Bride because it seemed different--and it absolutely was, in the best possible ways. High Vibe Bride is a small, intimate salon that works with individual clients only, which creates an incredibly calm and personalized experience. Before my appointment, Janay scheduled a phone call to learn about my vision, preferences, body, comfort needs, and my multi-day destination elopement. She asked thoughtful questions, provided extensive information, and explained timelines and options clearly. By the time I arrived, she had already pulled dresses that aligned exactly with what I wanted. I immediately felt seen, heard, and cared for. As a plus-size bride, I was blown away by the selection. There were so many plus-size dresses in a wide variety of styles--not just one look or silhouette. Every dress I tried on was beautiful and thoughtfully chosen. Janay was extremely communicative throughout the appointment, answering all of my questions thoroughly and offering helpful details about how each dress would move and feel. She absolutely nailed it based on our phone conversation--I ended up buying the very first dress I tried on, something I never expected. Even better, although I went in planning to buy one dress, I left with two. They were completely different, perfect for different parts of my elopement, and affordable because the pricing was far more reasonable than anywhere else in town. I had very specific needs--plus-size, long sleeves, and nothing restrictive--and yet the selection was incredible. I never felt limited or like I had to compromise. Janay affirmed me throughout the entire experience and made me feel confident, beautiful, and honestly like a princess. The alteration process was equally amazing. Janay's background in making wedding dresses truly sets her apart. For my adventure elopement, mobility was essential--my photographer even encouraged me to make sure I could do jumping jacks in my dress. Janay offered creative, expert solutions that allowed me to move freely while maintaining the integrity and beauty of the gown. On a personal level, Janay went above and beyond to accommodate my severe dog allergies, thoroughly vacuuming the studio, putting down extra coverings, and checking in with me multiple times to ensure I was comfortable. She was also incredibly thoughtful when my mom couldn't attend due to injury--helping FaceTime her, sending photos, and making sure she felt included. High Vibe Bride is not just a bridal salon--it is a place where brides are truly listened to, affirmed, and supported. Janay has created something special, and I am deeply grateful. I cannot recommend High Vibe Bride highly enough. read more

I found my wedding dress today. I tried on about 15-ish dresses but the very first one was my favorite- it was a tough choice because there were so many sincerely beautiful options. I won't post pics here YET until after my wedding day in case my fiancé stumbles across this review! Janay, the owner of High Vibe Bride, is such a special person with so much passion and talent for what she does- not to mention kindness. You can feel the kindness and love reflected in her entire space. It could not have been a more personalized experience. She closes the shop for each bride for 2 hours to try on dresses! She is so attentive, and she obviously listened to me very closely on our initial phone call last week, because that first dress ended up being the absolute perfect one for me. The two hours that we spent there last night are now a happy memory from this very fun adventure of getting married. 3 of my dearest friends came with me to offer love and encouragement... So. Much. Fun. But wait... It gets even better. A major reason that I chose this shop is because Janay plants 5 trees for every gown she sells, via the TreeSisters organization. Every gown in this shop is under $2K but I would have paid double for this dress. It is STUNNING, and so were all the others I tried on. True variety, what a fun collection! Janay... Thank you. You are a gift and a joy! read more

Janay is the most wholesome human to help you find your dream dress! She will make you feel comfortable in her shop and your own body.

Totally amazing experience from start to finish. We were greeted with open arms and left with hugs. This was the experience I was hoping for when dress shopping with my daughter. She said yes to the dress and could not be happier. read more

Everything about High Vibe Bride was amazing from the start. It was so easy to book an appointment, and right off the bat the owner, Janay, messaged me asking what my dress style, bodice shape, skirt shape, material, etc. preferences were. The evening before my appointment, Janay personally sent me a short video of 6 dresses she had chosen based on our previous discussion. I had a very low budget for a wedding dress, and living in a big city there were only 1-2 stores that were within my price range. I was nervous I wouldn't be able to find the right dress for the right price, but Janay made me feel like there were endless options within my budget. The day of our appointment she was incredibly welcoming and reviewed the main points of my wedding and the dream dress I had in mind. She was so knowledgeable about each type of dress, how she could do small or large alterations to make it your dream dress, and what worked for your body type. She also does all her own alterations and can completely blow your mind with her creativity! I can't recommend Janay or High Vibe Bride enough! read more

After visiting several alteration shops in KC I finally found a seamstress that I could afford. As a bridesmaid I had already invested a lot of money into a dress and was trying to save some money on the alterations. She was able to hem the dress's length and alter the satin belt that came too tight. She was also able to turnaround the alterations within a week. I highly recommend Janay A Eco Bridal for affordable bridesmaid alterations! read more

I can't say enough good things about Janay and her team! I got married in May 2016 and Janay transformed my base dress into something I couldn't wait to walk down the aisle in! Her pricing was fair and the care that she and her team took at my fittings was wonderful. I felt like I was genuinely cared for and that my dress meant to them what it meant to me. Janay's studio is an old home that has been converted into the most comforting wedding shop. I really felt like I was at home - the whole process put me such at ease. If you choose Janay, not only are you choosing care and quality, but you are supporting a wonderful local business. read more

High Vibe Bride is easily the best bridal boutique I've ever visited. Their dresses are gorgeous and well priced, and the service is lovely. I'm especially grateful to Makenzie for making my daughter feel so special. We'll definitely go back when daughter number two gets engaged! read more

I can't thank Janay enough for everything she did for me. As a bride that has a body shape that doesn't fit most dresses, I had a really hard time finding something that I liked and was flattering. My confidence was shot and I had no idea what I was going to do with this strapless dress that looked pretty horrible. Luckily I met Janay! She did my alterations at an reasonable price and timely manner. When we were finished we had a completely different dress! I walked down the aisle with a dress that fit me perfect from the off the shoulder Grecian sleeves to the custom belt and the gorgeous bustle. I highly recommend Janay's eco Bridal studio to any bride! read more

I had no idea who or where to go for dress alterations, but I saw online, that people recommend Janay. I am so glad I did. I loved her energy and you can tell she's knowledgeable and passionate about her work. I procrastinated on getting alterations done, but she was able to squeeze me in and have my dress finished in plenty of time. She was affordable and even purchased the jeweled belt from me that we removed from my dress, as I didn't plan to wear it. read more

I would highly recommended Janay to anyone. Whether they are looking for bridal or a special occasion. She designs tailored to your needs with her flow. I actually had a dress I bought from another larger bridal store and she transformed it into my own. But I would have worn any of the dresses she had displayed in her shop. Everything she had were all so lovely. I ended up buying all of my pieces from her. The veil, hairband, and garter set. read more

In general, I found the wedding dress shopping experience to be plain awful. Bursting into tears, and sales associates cramming me into dresses that were tiny floor sample sizes. Felt like a monster and about gave up. Then I found Janay after researching other options online. I liked that she was a local business. Janay helped design, create, and then altered my wedding dress. Married in December. The dress was made for me, rather than me trying to fit the dress like in retail stores. It was an easy, fun, and beautiful experience. She's a dream. Great person and business. Would do it all over again the same way. It was the best, and favorite part of my wedding prep. She even accommodated a last minute bridal freak-out with neckline change. I decided to lower it. I would like to brag that I rocked the boat neck before the Royal wedding made it popular again :-) It was perfect! I'm so grateful. Thank you! read more

Janay sculpts in fabric! While she primarily does custom wedding dresses, she also redesigns vintage wedding dresses (i.e. your mom's), and does limited alteration work. I got beyond lucky in the alteration department. She took an off the rack, sample dress and made it and me look like an absolute dream! I have never felt as beautiful as I did in my recreated-Janay-styled wedding dress. Having seen what she can do with alterations, I wish I would have just had her make my dress, but alas, I didn't know about those skills until after my dress was purchased. However, I don't know how anything could have been more perfect for me. There really aren't words to describe the magic Janay can work. Everyone at the wedding was begging to know where my dress was from. But they didn't realize it was Janay's special touch that made the dress. My bridesmaids and close friends saw the before and after pictures. Now, they all want to get a custom dress from Janay on their big day. I only hope they get custom bridesmaid dresses as well, because I want another of her luscious and flattering creations! read more

Janay A made an absolutely incredible, one-of-a-kind dress for my wedding. Discouraged by the experience at the usual dress shops, I desperately reached out to Janay for help. She was so easy to work with throughout the process. She listened intently to my wishes for the dress and she offered up some fantastic ideas along the way. In the end, I cannot imagine having had any other dress. If you are looking for something elegant and unique, don't hesitate to call Janay. read more

If you are shopping for a wedding dress, look no further. Seriously, don't even go to a bridal gown shop. Have your dress custom made by Janay! The cost is virtually the same as purchasing a pre-made dress, and the benefits are incredible. First, it feels amazing and is truly light and airy. Cotton is the way to go! It also doesn't look like cotton, if that's a concern of yours. Second, no one else has or will ever wear a dress like yours. You can incorporate your sense of style in it. Third, it will be the best decision you ever made about your wedding. I live out of state and Skyped with Janay. I had some concepts of what I wanted but wasn't totally sure. She took my ideas and transformed them into an ethereal creation. Within minutes she was sketching via Skype and showed me my dream dress. Weeks later, I received a more thorough sketch with fabric swatches. She sent me an extensive measurements list to get from a local seamstress. After I sent her the measurements, she created the dress. She was incredibly accomodating, as I would only be in Kansas City around Thanksgiving. During that four day time period, I had three fittings. She worked tirelessly within those days to do what takes most people months. It was incredible. It also was a really special experience. I've been in other bridal shops while a friend tries a dress on, and typically you have to wait to use the mirror, you hear women talking about their wedding, and you feel like just another bride. At Janay's, you are the only one there, and the shop has a vintage eclectic feel. You feel like you're going to a ball! So how was the dress? AMAZING. I've received compliments for weeks following my wedding. Everyone was astounded by it. I will definitely be using Janay again to transform my wedding dress into an everyday dress I can wear forever. Highly, HIGHLY recommend. read more

Janay is a wonderfully talented designer. She custom made my dream wedding dress. She was so easy to work with and she got my vision right away. She designed an amazing retro style wedding dress for my big day. She really made me feel unique and so comfortable that I felt the most beautiful I have ever felt. Janay is truly a one of a kind. She knows how to design and make a dress that will make you feel amazing. If you want a beautiful, unique and one of a kind wedding dress, then definitely go to Janay. read more

High Vibe Bride - She made my wedding dress come true! - Bridal Near Me - Mission, Kansas

Nothing but amazing things to say about Janay and her dress designs!!!! The entire process of customizing my wedding dress has been a dream come true! She listened to my ideas and designed my dress and even made a drawing of the dress! Every appointment has been personable, you know she cares about her clients, she even tracked down some rare Italian lace for my dress! Communication was great and smooth. Her studio is so pretty! Decorated with her unique designs, wedding jewelry, antique chandeliers and velvet upholstery - the fittings made for a cute getaway with my bridesmaid! It felt amazing on my wedding day to wear a custom dress, designed specifically for me... Janay is a true talent, I would recommend her to anyone lucky enough to book her!! read more

Janay was incredible to work with. I came in worried that my gown was too big to salvage, and she worked magic to make sure it fit like a glove! She was so kind and sweet during the whole process to ease any concerns, and worked with my whole family altering their dresses as well. She has such a sweet soul and made me feel comfortable. She made my dress dreams come true! read more

At the last minute, I decided to go to a formal Christmas party in California, and I bought a formal dress that needed significant alteration. I am only 5'2," and the dress that I purchased was meant for 6' person, so I looked online and found Janay A Eco Bridal. I took the chance and asked her if she could alter my dress and have it done in three days, and of course, I thought it would cost me an arm and a leg to get it done. But to my surprise, her price was very reasonable, and she did an exceptional job on the alteration and had it done within two days, and of course, the dress fit me like a glove! Thanks Janay for being so sweet and accommodating! read more

Janay literally made me feel exactly how I wanted to on my wedding day and went above and beyond in accommodating me. I had less than 2 months until my wedding and had fallen out of love with my dress, or more specifically, how I felt I looked in the dress. Janay made sure I could find a dress that I loved. All of the dresses I tried on had the option for me to leave with once the dress was paid for, no special ordering and waiting for months required! And she was able to bustle my dress in a way that was absolutely gorgeous which I didn't expect because I have always hated to look of bustles but understood the functionality. Anyways, Janay's store is PLUS SIZE FRIENDLY, and so honest about what they are able and unable to do with alterations. If you are reading this wondering if you should look for a dress here, the answer a thousand times is yes you should. I will never have enough good things to say about my experience here! read more

Ultimately, my custom dress was unwearable and I had to buy something off the rack 3 days before my wedding. I will start with that for those that don't want to settle in for the very long story. I will also say that I am generally a very laid back and reasonable person (really) - as I think any other vendor who worked with me on my wedding (or otherwise) could attest to (including the fact I, was, able to buy a dress off the rack I was happy in and fit me much better than my custom dress - huge thanks to J. Lynn Bridal in Lawrence for that!). After shopping at traditional bridal shops and not falling in love with anything I thought I would check the custom route out. I had two family heirloom dresses that I could use and now I go back to the decision to use my these dresses in the first place - perhaps that was the mistake. But, I brought them to Janay with the statement,"I have these dresses IF you think they will work - if not, totally fine." I am not a seamstress and trusted her opinion that they would work for the style I was going for. The issues that prevented me from wearing the dress were all issues that became apparent during the, first, fitting. Namely - the arm pit not being properly fitted to my arm, excessive bunching and general ill fit around my mid-section, the general short waisted look of the dress and it not fitting properly under my bust, and other very basic fit issues like the straps falling off my shoulder. I was absolutely vocal about these issues, and at certain periods Janay was in agreement, perhaps I should have been a little more forceful - I don't know...I voiced my concerns while trying to remain positive. Nonetheless, I decided to put my faith in the process and believe that after the 2nd, 3rd, 4th fitting they would all be resolved. When they still persisted during my final fitting, 4 days before my wedding, after some argument (where she defensively stated that the arm pit seam should, not, be in my arm pit or I couldn't move my arm - quite the opposite) I resolved that I was just going to have to make the best of it and try to talk myself into feeling beautiful in it. It was the week of my wedding, multiple conversations about the issues with her had not fixed them in the past, that day she was defending the issues, and I just didn't know what else to do. So, I smiled, said thank you, and took my dress that day (probably my biggest mistake). Later that night, was when the reality really hit me. I was trying on different bra options - trying to make up for the fact the dress wasn't properly placed under my bust when I said to my mom, "I'm not unrealistic...I don't expect to look like Julia Roberts or something but I feel bad in this. It is ill fitting and - I feel frumpy. Putting it on puts me in a bad mood. I want to take it off - it's making me upset." Like, I felt prettier in the $12 sundress I had on that day. My mom and I discussed contacting Janay at this point but the saying "the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results" came to mind. These had been issues that had been discussed many times - and had never been resolved. Between that and her defensive stance earlier that day - I didn't have faith that time would be any different. So, off to J. Lynn I went the next day. It felt like Janay tried to fix the issues for awhile, maybe they improved some but it created other problems, maybe it was never right in the first place - but then at some point she just gave up and instead spent her efforts trying to convince me they in fact, weren't, issues rather than properly addressing them. Moreover - the dress just looked, poorly, homemade to me. Not custom, couture, handmade...homemade. I'm sure her intentions were good, that she thought it would really work and then when it didn't maybe she felt too far invested to back track, I don't know. But it ,didn't, work. I was able to use the belt I got from her and the veil. A hair clip she made me wouldn't grasp my hair because of how she had sewn thread inside the clip - and after a few tries, just broke. All in all, obviously this whole situation resulted in a lot of extra stress, two ruined heirloom dresses, and wasted money (I did contact Janay with all of this information and more before I wrote any reviews - she apologized and refunded my hair clip but still stood by the dress and did not refund me any money for the gown). I enjoyed getting to know Janay and was a fan of her work generally - just not the work she did for me. So, be aware if you go this route that this scenario is a possibility - and be VERY vocal about concerns you have and get out EARLY if they aren't being resolved. read more

Janay was recommended to me by several folks after I purchased my gown, and I truly feel so lucky that I was able to have her work on my gown. Setting up an appointment with her was a breeze and when I went in for my first fitting she was so warm and welcoming. She took a dress I already loved, and found ways to make me love it even more and made it way more comfortable! She is SO creative and came up with a lot of really great ideas. When I went to my second fitting, she was already done with the gown! I was shocked at how quickly she got it done, and when I put it on it was like a dream come true. I did not want to take it off! Janay was truly so kind, professional, and went above and beyond my expectations. I will definitely be back after my wedding to have her clean and preserve my gown. I can not recommend her enough! It was a wonderful experience. read more

Janay is a wonderfully talented person! She transformed a basic dress into a gown for my wedding reception. I could not have been more pleased with her work. Janay takes the extra step to make you feel special, she listens to your wants and needs. Her wealth of knowledge in the bridal realm really helped me decide exactly what my dream dress would look like. Once my dress was complete, we accentuated it with a custom-made belt and hair piece that went perfectly with my dress. read more

Let me just start with, I'm not much of a girly girl and have never had the best self esteem, so when you put that combo together, it can make wedding dress shopping feel more anxiety ridden than fun like it's supposed to be. I did the initial wedding dress shops where I tried on a little bit of this and a little bit of that. I do have to say, that in the over all grand scheme of things it did help me out doing that. I felt like that way, I got to start at these big places that had a little bit of every fit and at least gave me the chance to hone in on things that I liked and didn't like. My fiance, at the time, and I went to a wedding show at the Rivermarket event space. Janay was set up in the little loft area up the steps. I hadn't even noticed, until he pointed it out to me and said I should go look. That's where I met Janay for the very first time. She was so nice and welcoming and just sitting down and talking dresses with her, made me start to feel like a bride. Even at that first little consultation, I got to go home with a sketch of a dress idea. I went home and thought about it and talked to my mom some. I ended up asking my mom what she thought about the potential of me using some of her dress to make my dress, if I were to have it handmade. From there the ball kept rolling. I continued to work with Janay, and when my mom got a chance to come into town, we got to take her dress to her. There was a moment on nervousness when she started to cut a piece off my mom's dress, that my mom would have a panic attack! But alas, she didn't! Janay was able to take apart my moms dress and put together a masterpiece that combined my style and my moms style into one beautiful gown. For one day, I truly felt like a beautiful princess and the girly girl I was always meant to be! I honestly can't thank Janay enough for giving both me and my mom such a meaningful dress for me to wear on my wedding day! read more

I really enjoyed working with Janay to make my dream dress! She did an amazing job! The tailoring was impeccable and she was full of wonderful suggestions. When I first met with her I had a rough idea of what I wanted and three sessions/fittings later I wouldn't have changed a thing about my dress. I knew that I wanted a short dress, but that I wanted it to look very bridal, so with lots of lace and a little beading, that's where we ended up. Thanks Janay! I HIGHLY recommend her! read more

I had Janay customize a dress I bought off of the rack. She added lace from my mom's wedding dress, changed the back, and lined the skirt. I loved how it turned out and got so many compliments. Best of all, Janay was so incredibly easy to work with. I highly recommend Janay A Handmade, one of the best wedding decisions I ever made! (Besides marrying my husband of course!) read more

Highly recommended! Janay is a fabulous. She is a talented seamstress and very skilled at wedding gown alterations. I took her my lace, sheath gown that needed hemming, slight fitting in the bust, and bustles. When she was done, the dress looked perfect, and it fit me like it was custom made for me. I already loved my dress and thought it was beautiful, but I had no idea alterations could make it even more beautiful. I love, love, loved my dress and absolutely felt like a beautiful bride on my wedding day - in large part thanks to Janay's touch. But my favorite thing about working with Janay was her sweet, endearing personality. I really felt like a friend she cared about and enjoyed meeting her. I highly recommend Janay A Eco Bridal! read more

Working with Janay was truly one of the most special parts of planning my wedding. We met early in the process when I was not sure what type of gown I wanted, but I knew that I wanted to use my mother's gown in some way. After the first meeting, Janay had designed a perfect gown for me --uniquely mine but re-incorporating my heirloom gown! Janay was helpful and responsive throughout the whole process and visiting her studio for fittings is one of my favorite memories from my wedding planning process. Not only is she quick to respond and wonderful to work with, she is a talented artist and she is extremely warm and fun. I cannot say enough good things about my experience with Janay A Eco bridal. read more

Amazing and affordable. She fixed my dress that was destroyed by another tailor. I called her basically in tears and she agreed to help me at the last minute. She saved my dress.

I am so thankful that I had Janay do my wedding dress alterations! My dress turned out perfectly! Janay is so friendly, kind and easy to work with. I would highly recommend her to any bride in the Kansas City area!! read more

I loved working with Janay. Before walking into her shop, I was a stressed out, anxious bride with a wedding 8 weeks away and a dress that needed some delicate attention. My dress wasn't an heirloom or one that needed major reconstruction, but that didn't matter. Janay immediately treated it, and me, with the utmost respect and care. I was put at ease in her shop. She put me at ease. She has a very calming and warm presence. I felt completely confident in her ability and I was not disappointed. I had several fitting appointments with her and each time I went in she had helpful advice and styling suggestions (no necklace, clip hair bling above up-do and veil below, buy ballroom dancing shoes for comfort and stretch, use a crochet hook to help with buttons, use lots of fashion tape, to name a few). Out of all the seamstresses I took my dress to for a consultation, Janay was the only one who didn't cut corners. She buttoned every button, pinned up different bustle options, let me prance around and take lots of pictures, she fluffed tulle, she even got on the ground and hand removed lace so I could see how she would hem my gown. She does impeccable detail work and she can spot a loose bead or stray thread from a mile away. She did so many things that showed not only her experience but her attention to brides and making their dress work for them. She was very affordable, worked well within my time restriction, and she never made me feel like my wants were unattainable. I loved how my wedding dress fit, and looked, and I have Janay to thank. read more

Janay is absolutely wonderful! I first went to her for a bridesmaids dress and she was extremely helpful in figuring out what needed to be done. She listened to all of my concerns and helped find economically conscious solutions. The dress turned out perfectly. I was so pleased that I went back to her for my own wedding dress. I ended up buying a sample gown that was 2 sizes too big for me so there was a lot of work to be done. Not only was there a lot to be done but it was quite complex work. Janay had to resize the armholes and take off delicate lace cap sleeves and sew them back on as well as take in more of the delicate lace from the chest, back, and rest of the gown. I was concerned that the dress might be too large and complicated to alter. Janay made is sound like it was no problem and sure enough, it turned out perfectly. The dress fit like a glove and it certainly wouldn't have been possible without Janay! Now, a month later, I went back to Janay for another bridesmaid dress and although I haven't picked it up yet, there's no doubt in my mind that it will fit perfectly. If you need alternations, I cannot recommend Janay enough. From her bright personality to her adorable shop with dedicated parking, the entire experience is always a pleasure. read more
