Even…read moreif they don't have the dress for you, the service and atmosphere of this shop is a recommended experience! Camille was truly the best - she took the time to get to know me, my family and bridal party that were with me, what I was looking for, what I had already tried on. Every step of the process she was so attentive and patient. The day of my appointment (after two back to back weekends of pretty underwhelming dress appts), I had tried on a few and liked a few aspects of the dresses pulled. The last dress of the day is when Camille pulled out THE ONE! At this point I decided to think about it as I was overthinking if this was truly the dress and she was so kind and understanding. I didn't feel pressured to purchase right then and there. I ended up booking the "The One" appointment for the following weekend and again, Camille, the staff, everything was perfect and I finally said yes to the dress! Lex helped me with measurements and ordering, answered all my questions, and made me feel confident moving forward with securing the dress. I cannot thank Love and Lace enough and can't wait to pick up my dress later this year for my Jan. 2027 wedding!

This bridal salon ended up being the only one I went to, I found my perfect dress with the help of Lex. She truly made my experience amazing. I wish I could go back just to hang out with her! I came into the salon with a list of dresses that I had previously viewed on their website, Lex pulled them right out for me and we got to work! She had also pulled some different designs just so I could see how I looked in them, which I did end up loving! At the end of my first visit, I fell in love with two different dresses. Again, it was also my first bridal salon that I had visited so far, so I was still planning on checking out other places. After telling Lex that I wanted to sleep on it/check out other places she was totally understanding and didn't "pressure" me like a lot of other places I've heard. I could not stop thinking about one of the dresses I tried on at my first fitting, so I made my follow up appointment (obviously with Lex) and boom! Wedding dress secured! BEST experience ever I wish I could do it all over again.

I visited Blush Bridal after finding them on social media. Most of all of the brides that I follow…read moreon social media were posting and RAVING about this place! It was easy to book my appointment and it seemed like they had good availability as most bridal boutiques I looked at visiting did not. I was able to find something that fit my schedule and booked it right away. I had several family emergencies come up that delayed my visit to Blush Bridal, and every time I needed to rescheduled someone was happy to help me find something that worked better for me. I was paired with Hanna for my fitting and I could not be happier with my experience at Blush. I am a bride who does NOT care about spending a ton of money on a gown. I wanted something within a certain budget and shared that with Hanna. I loved that she didn't judge me for not wanting to spend a ton of money on a gown and instead she chose items that were within my budget and did not pressure me to try on things that were more expensive. When I arrived, she had several dresses that were reflective of my Pinterest Board that I had shared previously. I am also a mid/plus size bride (bridal size 16) and Hanna chose dresses that flattered my figure. I loved that they had sample sizes that actually fit me. I felt completely comfortable and so confident in the styles she chose for me! I ended up saying YES to the dress at Blush! I would highly recommend visiting Blush Bridal to get your dream gown. I value Hanna's expertise SO much. The entire experience was seamless! 10/10 recommend.

You can book your first visit online. Kaeli did an outstanding job of choosing dresses for me based on a couple of inspiration photos I showed her. She also listened carefully and quickly adjusted as I gave my thoughts along the way, which is quite a skill, since it was my first shop experience, and I didn't have a clear idea of what I wanted going in. They have a variety of styles and price points, and Kaeli was respectful of my 2K budget, choosing dresses within budget (not all places will do this, beware!). I almost got my dress here, however, I ended up choosing a different style at a sample sale a month later due to pricing, timing, and style--I liked my top two dresses equally. I would HIGHLY recommend including this place for your OC wedding dress shopping!

I was set up with Erin and she took control and understood the vibe even though I wasn't even sure what it was. The first dress I tried on had me in love and sold, but she said let's do even better!

I brought my mom and best friend. We all sat down and she asked what I want to look and feel like in my dress, if I have an idea of what I want (shape, fabric, color, etc), if I've tried any dresses on already, and my price range. We got to browse and point out any dresses for Erin to pull while she went all around pulling any dress she thought I might like. Erin clipped me in so well that I didn't have to tug and adjust the dress while seeing how I liked it. For each dress I got to walk out to the pedestal and check myself out in the mirror and lighting. For each dress, she asked how I felt in it, what I liked, what I didn't like, what I would change... and this all helped her narrow down which dresses to try on or others to grab to add to the list. I got to try different veils (which I didn't know I wanted and it totally completed the look, so now I'm getting a veil) and even go to different lighting to see what natural lighting would look like on the sparkles too. When I found the dress, I got to participate in the Mon Amie tradition of making a wish for myself, my fiancé, and my marriage, then ring the bell and celebrate! Measurements were taken and a detailed contract was written up with pricing and a quote for alterations. Parking was easy & there is a bathroom in the back! There was a ginormous selection of dresses of all fits, fabrics, and styles.

After sharing my vision and budget, she set realistic expectations while still helping me find beautiful options. I especially appreciated that she let me browse dresses on my own and didn't limit me to only her selections. In fact, the dress I chose was very similar to one she had recommended, proving she truly understood my style. When I found the one, Gigi helped me pick the perfect veil to complete my dream look. A special thank you to Sima, the seamstress, who was absolutely amazing and such a sweetheart. She made the alteration process stress-free and ensured my dress fit perfectly. From finding my dream dress to the final fitting, the entire experience was wonderful. Highly recommend A Royal Moment to any bride-to-be!

They have everything from wedding to beauty to home. I will be making trips over here when I visit OC. I chose Anthro to purchase a wedding dress. Their service was amazing. They allowed me to have a few more guests and was patient when I was late to the appointment due to a collision on the freeway. I tried on more dresses than I originally picked. They offered champagne and water. They were positive, professional, and kind and I recommend you buy your wedding dress here. They didn't try to upsell me and prices are transparent on their website. You save a little if you buy from the store.

Anthropology had truly my dream dress at an extremely affordable cost! Would highly recommend choosing it if your priorities are the same as mine! The lady helping us honestly seemed like she didn't really want to the there (one of my bridesmaids said something after too so I know it wasn't just me) but she was plenty nice overall and they give brides and the people they bring free drinks so overall very good experience!

I ended up falling in love with a mermaid gown when I had only tried on A-lines at my previous fittings at two other shops. I felt so beautiful in it from the first fitting to my big day. They also offer alterations at similar pricing to my usual tailor (who charges fairly) - I did get a discount since a shipping delay resulted in my dress coming late which I greatly appreciated! The seamstress who worked on my dress was super sweet and experienced - the hem was perfect, the bodice fit so well I never worried about having to adjust my dress despite it being off-the-shoulder, and the American bustle held up super well (even me jumping around the dance floor couldn't do any damage). Their hours were a little unclear online and I had to wait a couple days for a response at times (usually because they were still waiting on something), but overall a wonderful experience!

I truly can't say enough good things about Jaclyn's Bridal! I went to four other bridal shops…read morebefore finding this boutique, and while they were all perfectly fine, Jaclyn's Bridal really went above and beyond. I called on a Thursday morning because I wanted to try on a specific dress that was listed on their website, and they were able to fit me in for an appointment that SAME day! When I arrived, I tried the dress on, but unfortunately they didn't have it in the color I wanted. Instead of just leaving it at that, they offered to order the dress in my size and preferred color with just a $100 deposit. That way I could actually see the dress in person before making a decision. I was so impressed by how accommodating they were! About a week later, they texted me to let me know the dress had arrived and helped me set up another appointment to try it on. My stylist, Stephanie, was absolutely AMAZING. She was so sweet, patient, and helpful throughout the entire process. She helped me try different veils with each dress, showed me the various sleeve options, and made the whole experience feel so fun and stress-free. They're even storing my dress for me until I'm ready to start the alterations process, which was such an unexpected bonus! I honestly can't believe how wonderful this boutique has been from start to finish. After visiting several other bridal shops, the level of customer service and genuine care I received here really stood out. Thank you, Jaclyn's Bridal and Stephanie, for making what could have been a stressful process SO much fun! I'm so happy I found you!

We started off by browsing the store and picking a few dresses, and Huong also recommended a few as well based on my vision. My mom and sister had fun being able to go through the selection and suggest some dresses. I came in knowing I wanted to try on a specific dress and Huong made sure to find it for me! Throughout the whole process I felt so comfortable and supported by Huong. I just want to thank her for being so patient and kind to me. She helped me get in to each dress and never made me feel like I was a bother even though we tried on so many dresses! And she even saved the dress I came in to try on for last, just so that I could be sure that there wasn't something unexpected that I ended up liking. When I finally did try on the one, I felt so relieved that I finally found my dress! Also side note, this was actually a rescheduled appointment because I had a family emergency happen the day before my first appointment, but they were so kind, understanding, and even remembered it the day of my rescheduled appointment weeks later. That meant so much to me! I had a great experience dress shopping here and can't wait to receive my dress when it arrives later this year!

Both of my sisters had found their wedding dresses there, and so I was hopeful but a bit unsure. I was so so fortunate to get to work with Veronica. She was incredible! So helpful, thoughtful, professional, and had such knowledge about fits and materials, and helped me find my dream dress, even though the selection was limited on my budget. She also spent so much time with me, which I know is not always possible and was just luck because it was a little slower that day (I went on a Monday). After helping me find my dream dress, Daniella stepped in for measurements and suggested a specific bolero when I mentioned I needed a jacket to wear during our church ceremony. She recommended one that was so glamorous and transformed my dress from what felt like one look, to two. I am so in love with my dress, jacket, and the matching veil she suggested. I am so sad that Panache is closing in Costa Mesa but feel so lucky I got to have the experience that I did. Truly a dream! Thank you SO much Veronica and Daniella!

Every time she asked for a change, they refused, saying it would change the designer's intention regardless of how it fits on the bride, and they kept threatening her with rush fees for any further modifications. A dress should be altered to fit the bride, not to preserve the designer's work. 1 month before our wedding they had screwed up her dress, so we had to find another bridal shop last minute and pay extra fees to make sure it would be ready in time. They refused to refund her money and told her to take the unaltered dress or they would toss it, which I found very rude. My fiancé was left in tears and under enormous stress dealing with this shop. I would strongly discourage anyone from buying their dress here.
