Outside

Went there today 2:30PM because their website shows closing time was 5PM. Door was locked, no sign on door, website not updated, no one there answered the phone, no sign on the door showing that they'll be back or appointment only, NO TIME hours on their business door. their business page also did not show the affected hours. Knocked on the door, no answer. I called them numerous times, they did not answer. Lack of service. Horrible business! Avoid!

Celebrating the big decision with mom!

I can't say enough great things about my experience at Moondance Bridal. Firstly, I have to give a big shout out to Courtney. She was my stylist for both my first and second appointments. Not only did she really listen to everything I had to say, including any of my anxieties and all of my preferences, but she was so knowledgeable and pulled gowns that were truly giving everything I wanted. I feel like she snatched all the gowns just right and helped give a total vision for the look! Going into the shopping experience, I was very nervous with a lot of insecurity. As a person whose body changed a lot postpartum, I wasn't sure I would find a dress that I could love and feel comfortable in. The selection at Moondance was incredible, especially compared to THREE bridal shop experiences I had in Los Angeles that had me coming back to book a second appointment at Moondance. The lines they carry are trendy, well constructed, elegant, and cool. Well worth the investment. Any of the 4 dresses I tried would have been amazing options compared to any I tried at the other shops. As a note, the shop itself is so cute and easy to find parking. The appointments feel very private, they offer water & champagne, and the accessories bar is also very nice! They feature popular brand Untamed Petals. All in all, I am so thrilled to have had a positive experience at Moondance as a plus size curvy bride. They make you feel so comfortable, cared for, and beautiful... and I wasn't sure I'd have that kind of experience anywhere. I found "the one" here and cannot wait to wear it! Thanks Courtney & Moondance!

Appointment for my sister!
Belen M.

Moondance Bridal offered the exact experience we were hoping for when we went searching for my sisters dress!! First, you need to make an appointment, so get that scheduled ASAP. They only have two fitting areas and so they take only two at a time, and the appointment was 90 minutes long. (My sister scheduled this, so I'm not sure if there are other options.) Fitting Areas: There are two fitting areas, that look like living rooms with a curtained space for the bride to be to try on the choices. They each have huge mirrors, and a pedastal for the bride to be, and a couch for her family/friends. Everything was very cozy in a rustic sort of way. They offered champagne, water or sparkling water for everyone when you first come in. Dresses: So this would be considered a boutique space, I'd imagine. But as small as this place is (compared to a David's Bridal type place) they had so many styles of dresses. ( These are not official names but: Lacey, with Sequins, with Beading, Satin-No details, Boho, elegant, flowy, with trains, no trains, etc.!) I was pretty impressed. There is also a small closeted area of dresses that are ready to be sold "as is" for a fraction of the price. I'm assuming retired sample dresses. Some of these need some alterations though, so keep that in mind, but they do have several to select from. Assistance: Courtney was amazing!! She was the sweetest gal who took care of my sister from start to finish and helped to make this an exciting event for my sister. She listened to my sisters budget and wants in a dress, and I think only pulled 2 dresses (out of 9) that were not what she asked for, just to have her see what they were like. She gave her plenty of time to try on each dress, and gave us plenty of time to take photos and relish in the moments. When my sister found THE dress, she took in the moment with us all, and she had my sister do " a walk down the aisle" in the shop. Then she took pictures of our group with the dress and without the dress. It was a perfect moment. Thank you for all you do Courtney!! Oh and they even have this cute photo booth in the back and you can take pictures once you are done and you get a printout with "Moondance Bridal" on it. Since my sister said yes to the dress, they got the order process done pretty quickly (they do offer rush ordering for $200 extra, if you need it quick) and then my sister got a cute goodie bag with moon inspired/bride inspired items. Courtney really did outstanding work and even though this shop is a few hours from us, it was worth the drive and we will be referring everyone who needs a bridal dress down here!

I had the best experience at moondance! I got the vip session. We got to start out with champagne. Then I walked around with one of the stylist and they get a feel of what your style is. The first dress they picked for me was it! I cried and just knew. They really are great at what they do. Very sweet and make you feel so comfortable. Highly recommend

My family and I went to look at bridal dresses this weekend at Moondance. It was an incredible experience where they offered us champagne and hugs and said how beautiful we looked. The bridal gowns are just gorgeous and they have a large selection. As a plus size bride, they made a lot of dresses work and made the appointment so easy and fun. Sarah and Lina were just the most wonderful people. They made a memorable experience for me and my whole family, something we will always remember.

I recently moved to the Central Coast and had okay experiences at previous bridal shops. I had two appointments at Moondance and both visits were phenomenal! Sierra helped me both times and she was amazing as she went above and beyond to find dresses that fit my vision as well as answering all questions I had. Moondance really gives you the full bridal experience. I was so impressed with the variety of dresses they offered too. Also, the ambiance in the shop is so beautiful and high- vibe! 10/10 all around, I can go on forever!

Not the dress I chose but still so beautiful
Gabriela R.

I can't express how amazing of an experience I've had here with these ladies! They are so kind and helpful. They treated us all so special and with respect. The fitting experience was so smooth, and I of course got to choose the dress of my dreams. I ordered my dress in December and it should be in by June but I totally forgot that I didn't get to order my veil. It is now end of march and I was worried I wouldn't be able to get anything. I called and explained the situation and honestly I'm not surprised at the response I got. She asked me to send her my dress through text and she sent me some Veils that would fit my dress! Now if that is not GRADE A service! Thank you so much ladies! While dealing with so many other things you have made this process so perfect!

This gorgeous bridal salon gives you the ultimate dream experience. Amazing dresses to choose from and good lighting for photos. Decorated so cute! Courtney was awesome, she made me feel comfortable and was super funny and knowledgeable on dresses and designers. To top it off, we had champagne which is always a plus. 10/10 recommend. - Lauren S.

Sabrina B.

What an amazing experience to have when dress shopping. I loved that it was by appointment and you didn't have to fight for anyone's attention or wait for someone to help you. The service was top notch and she listened to all I had to say and what I was looking for. This was my third bridal store I'd visited and by far the best. I ended up finding the perfect dress and couldn't be happier.

Where do I even begin - Theresa is incredible! I had my late…read moregrandmother's wedding dress from 1950 and had a vision to redo it to wear to my rehearsal dinner. Theresa worked up sketches and painstakingly deconstructed the dress with an incredible attention to detail (she saved the individual lace flowers to reattach in the same pattern). She asked my preferences and permission every step of the way, knowing it was a treasured family heirloom. I could not be happier with how the dress turned out, and she so thoughtfully displayed it on a mannequin with bows once it was ready! I can't recommend Theresa enough. She is thoughtful, talented, detailed, thorough, and altogether fun to be around and talk to! My family and I are so grateful for her taking this task on and making our rehearsal dinner so special.

The first dress was a delicate chiffon mother of the bride gown that I initially thought was too tight in the bodice. Teresa patiently explained that the fit was actually perfect and even taught me the proper way to zip up such a gown--starting with the eyehook first! Her attention to detail was impeccable as she hand-hemmed the flowing chiffon to perfection. The last two dresses were mother of the groom gowns, including a stunning Indian Lehenga that required deconstruction to take in the waist. Teresa navigated the complex alterations flawlessly, demonstrating deep knowledge of different styles and fabrics. I highly recommend Teresa to anyone seeking a skilled, knowledgeable, and caring tailor for all types of garments. She truly goes above and beyond!

She always showed up with a smile on her face and a positive attitude (even when I was getting to be bridezilla). She accommodated every request and offered suggestions to make the wedding run as smoothly and beautifully as possible. We had some issues with our venue (that's another story) and weren't able to set everything up the night before the wedding. There was so much left undone, and I had a plan for it all. I gave Michele a super quick run through of about 20 things I needed to be done the day of the wedding. I didn't know how she was going to get it all done or remember it all, but she did. I didn't do a thing the day of the wedding, Michele and her girls took care of it all -- and it looked amazing! She got every detail right, paid attention to every request I gave her. She respected my ideas and my vision and honored that to give me my perfect day. She was kind and professional and truly was happy for both of us on the day of our wedding. You can tell Michele does this because she loves it. She is genuine and generally a lovely person to be around. Honestly, my wedding would not have been what it was without Michele. I am so happy we used Planimation Events to plan our wedding. I highly recommend Michele and her team. Thank you Michele!!

From the Bride: When we booked our venue, the event manager advised us that we didn't really need…read moreto hire an outside coordinator; apparently very few couples getting married at the Madonna Inn enlist additional help. Because we live out of the area and wanted to enjoy our wedding day as thoroughly as possible, we decided to go ahead and find some extra help who would make sure everything ran smoothly. I interviewed half a dozen highly-qualified planners/coordinators in the SLO area before finding Planimation Events to help us with month-of and day-of services. My initial impressions of Michele were that she was kind, competent, and well-organized; but it turns out her qualifications don't end there! Before the wedding Michele worked with each of our vendors to make sure everyone was well-coordinated and everything was as we planned it. From making sure flags in the reception room were removed before dinner (long story) to perfectly placing each last bit of decor, Michele and her team knew exactly what it took to make sure everything ran smoothly. On the day of the wedding we didn't see Michele much because she and her assistant were actively running the "show behind the show"; everything ran on time and according to plan - if there were any snafus, we had no idea because Michele took care of it. With Planimation's help we were able to relax (well, as much as one can on their wedding day!) and enjoy all our friends and family knowing that Michele had taken care of everything we threw at her along the way. Now here's the part where I get sappy and maybe even a little teary-eyed. Michele and her team provided exactly what we hired Planimation to do flawlessly; make sure all details were taken care of so we could be as present as possible on our wedding day. But the services Michele provided that weren't written in any contract or advertised on her website lie in the deep care and concern she showed for us (the bride and groom) as nervous humans trying to manage our emotions, our relatives, our wedding party, on the day of the biggest party we'll probably ever throw. She and her assistant kept us calm and laughing throughout the day; and not in a superficial way. I truly believe that Michele cares deeply about the people she works with and for; something rare in an industry dedicated to creating "picture perfect" days. With Michele's help our day not only LOOKED picture perfect but FELT picture perfect. Thank you, Planimation, for providing us peace of mind, kindness, and friendship. You have our deepest gratitude for your soulful support and buoyantly positive attitude. We love you! From the Groom: I was very reluctant to spend money on a wedding coordinator when both my wife and I are capable and well-organized. Michele turned out to be a wise investment, leaving wedding-ruining chores and stress to her and her staff, allowing us to enjoy our wedding. Michele was exactly what we needed. Planimation was easy to work with and professional, with what I'm told are good rates. This staff has my deep appreciation.

Throughout the planning process, she often took 1 to 2 weeks to respond to me, even though our contract stated that communication would be available with a "24 hour response time, usually less." When Rose did reply to me, she failed to fulfill her biggest responsibilities, like proposal reviews, part of what she offered in her partial planning package. Based on lack of communication alone, I should've terminated my contract with Rose to the Occasions sooner than I did. At the time, however, I wanted to give her business the benefit of the doubt. So, I communicated my concerns to her, expressed how excited I was for my wedding and how I wanted to work as a team to help plan it, and, in doing so, I would need her to reply to my emails. Even after articulating my concerns, Rose failed in her communication. But lack of communication wasn't the only major issue I had with Rose to the Occasions. At one point, Rose told me that she'd instructed the florist to change our floral centerpieces from medium to small, as per my request. A few weeks later, when I noticed that the centerpieces had not been changed in my contract with the florist, the florist informed me that Rose hadn't contacted her at all. Eventually, I ended my contract with Rose. Throughout the entire planning process, which I had hoped to be joyous and exciting, I was burdened with the responsibility of trying to get Rose to communicate and perform her responsibilities as outlined in our agreement. I also lost thousands of dollars. Please take heed if Rose responds to this review as, in my experience with her, she tends to lean into defensiveness and combativeness. For example, she might reply that I didn't contact her properly as I sometimes texted her, but of course I had to text her if she was completely unreachable via email and the internal portal. Rose might also complain about the 90-minute drive she took to Santa Barbara to conduct an initial walkthrough. If you are not willing to invest the time it takes to uphold your contract, don't take the booking. Brides, grooms, and to anyone else planning a special day--the choice is yours.
