It's been one year since I've said I do. February 1st was the most magical day of my life and I…read morefelt like a queen because of my beautiful custom dress. So here's the story- Milenas Bridal followed me on Instagram YEARS before I even got engaged. They liked my posts even when only 5 other people did. But hell.. their marketing worked, because the one and only wedding dress shop I went to was Milenas. I brought an entourage of characters from the sassy best friend to the grumpy grandma and our stylist handled it with ease. I tried on dresses that everyone picked, probably around 10 dresses. Our stylist was SO patient with a surround sound of input from my guests. Finally we found the gown. It was originally too full for my liking, but they gladly offered alterations which means they took 2-3 layers of the skirt out of the original design. It was white overlay with a grey underlay that fit well with my age and that it was my second wedding. It was gorgeous. It stunned my entire entourage. Even grumpy granny was beyond pleased. It took 6 months to make because it was handmade in Italy but worth every moment waiting for it. When I walked down the aisle my husband gasped and our parents cried. It was my moment and I lived it to the fullest. This style is discontinued but I highly recommend them for any boho unconventional wedding gown. They had everything to fit any ethereal dream. Thank you Milenas!

Milena's Bridal is the best bridal salon I visited in all of Houston! We searched far and wide and…read moreMilena's had an amazing selection of dresses! The was such a wide variety of styles and dresses. Luba was also amazing. She was kind and allowed me to try on as many dresses as I wanted and retry on the one I loved. I ended up getting my dress and a second dress here for our reception (and a veil)! She custom measures you and the dresses are made to your measurements. She will also help you customize the dress if you need. I added a panel to my dress so it wasn't sheer and also customized my veil to match the lace of my dress! I just recently picked mine up and it fit like a dream! Exactly like I imagined for my wedding. Luba is bridal jesus and will help you create exactly what you imagine for your big day!

I came to browse a sample sale (dresses that weren't going to make it to their collection next season are sold for about half the price, sold as is / no alterations) where the entire building was bustling with tons of brides, family, and swishing dresses, but you can book a traditional appointment where one can enjoy a more relaxed and private experience. Their stock of dresses is quite large, as it took a while to just walk around all the rooms with the dresses before pulling them off the rack to look. The sample sale appointment is one hour, and I walked out with my wedding dress at the end of it! For the sample sale, we met with the bridal consultant (Victoria was amazing!) and then I received 5 clothes pins to mark which dresses I was interested while I made a walk through the dress area. She pulled those dresses, brought them to our designated fitting area (there's a sofa for family or friends to sit and watch), and helped me into the dresses. Since the sample sale didn't have my exact size, she used clips to cinch the excess fabric in the back, and that worked well to see what the dress would look like if tailored to my size. You can do as many rounds as you like as time permits. Once I chose the dress, the part that really brought it together for me was putting on a veil :) When checking out, they gave a list of recommended tailors, and luckily some of them are in the loop! The staff here were all very friendly and enthusiastic. Victoria was my amazing bridal consultant; she was friendly, encouraging, patient, and not pushy at all. She was easy to talk to and really made the experience amazing! Ashley was tagging along with Victoria and gave some helpful opinions about dress styles, and the other consultants walking by would cheer. The only thing I would dock a star for would be that I had some questions to ask Victoria after she left to meet her next appointment, and the front desk team told me she would ask Victoria to call me back. I never got a call and had to call twice to ask for her to contact me (by the time she texted me, it was several days later, and I'm pretty sure she forgot who I was / what dress details I had questions about). Overall, a happy place! They even have a metal lock you can personalize and add to their growing collection of successful dress matches + a floral backdrop to take photos. I imagine personalized appointments are a lot slower paced and relaxed. Be sure to bring your strapless bra and skin colored undies to your appointment! I'm glad I chose Whittington Bridal as the first spot to look for dresses-- it was super efficient and a lovely experience :)

I just got out of my dress appointment. These people, specifically the manager, are so dishonest…read more They had a Maggie Sotero Trunk Show and the dresses were so beautiful--I literally found my dress. They told me that the $300 off promotion for the trunk show would last through the weekend (Saturday). So of course, the manager said she could hold it for Friday for my mom to come in person to see it. Suddenly, they switched up on what they said and told me the $300 promotion is only for the first bridal appointment and they cannot hold it. I confronted the manager, and asked her why she was dishonest and inconsistent. She had no words. I took off the dress and left. I will never do business with dishonest people, and this store and their employees were definitely just that. At least I found my dress, hopefully I'll encounter a bridal shop that can order it for me.

I called and was able to make a same-day appointment.The shop is a small but darling one located in Old Town Spring at the very back of a long building behind the doll hospital. Arlean was my consultant, and she was so sweet and knowledgeable! She guided me to find which styles I liked for my bridesmaids. We talked about which dresses would coordinate with my dress (I showed her a picture of me in it), which dresses would work for the various body types of my bridesmaids (I went without them), and which dresses would work in the color I wanted. Arlean was so helpful and pleasant as I tried on the dresses and as my mom tried on dresses to get mother-of-the-bride ideas. Definitely recommend! Tip: Plan to spend some extra time in Old Town Spring if you're going on the weekend, so go early to get a parking spot! Also, keep in mind Amore is not going to have everything on display that it's able to order for you, but it's incredibly helpful to get ideas.

Looking back, I honestly wish it had been our last--because nothing else even came close. My daughter had a clear idea of what she wanted going in, but her stylist, Paris, thoughtfully suggested a few options outside of that vision. And wow--she absolutely nailed it. One of those dresses turned out to be THE dress, and from that moment on, nothing else compared. My daughter lives out of state, and the Brickhouse Bridal team went above and beyond to help us every step of the way--from ordering the gown to carefully boxing it so I could ship it to her once it arrived. The experience was so exceptional that my daughter didn't even want to try on dresses in her own state. The dress, the shop, and especially Paris set the bar too high. We are counting down the days until the wedding and can't wait to share photos in just three more months. Thank you, Brickhouse Bridal and especially Paris, for making this such a memorable and joyful experience!

For my appointment I found the assistant very helpful and honest about what she thought. She told me she wouldn't sell me a dress I didn't look great in and when I tried on one dress she politely told me this wasn't the dress for me. When I did try on "the one" she let me really dwell on my decision while wearing the dress to make sure I was sure. I really liked that. I didn't feel rushed or pressured and even when I felt like I was sure she waited until I was satisfied before grabbing the veil. Now its been six months and I'm still totally sold on this dress. I had a great experience here, loved the beautiful store and I am now recommending this place to another coworker who just got engaged!

She fixed my dress and brought it back down to an appropriate length. She also let out the straps a little bit so everything fit just right. Michelle, thank you for the wonderful human being that you are. If you are considering going to Colletti Threads, I believe you absolutely should.

I instantly liked her & the bride she was helping raved about her work, so to me there was no point in looking any further! I'm a BIG fan of bling, but I didn't want to be trashy & I wanted to incorporate my favorite colors purple & sliver, well Michelle did just that. She totally understood my vision even before I did, my dress was already beautiful, but when she added all her special touches my dress was BEYOND PERFECT!!! She adjusted the pleats on the top part of my gown to fit my bust better, she did my bustle & added bead work. Everyone thought the dress was beautiful & it was totally me. My Mom loved the perfect touches she added. She texted me through-out the process to let me know how the dress progress was going, she texted me pictures of all the bead work she was going to add. She was super flexible with times for fittings, I was still in school with a full time job & planning; so things got hectic from time to time. I even forgot one of my fittings because I was studying for an exam & she was more than understanding. Yes, the fittings were at her house & yes her husband was there from time to time, but I NEVER felt uncomfortable, she was always professional & truly cared about what I thought & how I felt. Michelle even made me a beautiful matching headpiece! I remember that I even did a few spins & dance moves in she sewing room because I told her I needed my dress to last a WHOLE day of crazy salsa dancing. I recommend her to every bride I know!
