I said yes to the dress so they definitely earn a few stars for that! It's not a fancy shop, but they have reasonably priced dresses & helped me try on 10+ dresses. Alterations can be done on site and as soon as I found my dress there, the seamstress came over and was able to explain the costs of alterations as well. There is space for a few bridal party members, or family to sit while you try on too. read more

Love this place! Drove from Memphis to get a black tie reception dress. Selection was great, prices were great, and the alterations were great! Would come back!! read more

Southern Belle Rose - Sewing & Alterations Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

After our day at another dress shop I was dreading today. It ended up being a great experience. The selection was top notch. They had a great variety of Sherri Hill, Jovani and Mori Lee. All colors and sizes. Yuri was so helpful and knew his inventory. We got the dress she was dreaming of and I didn't get stressed. Highly recommend this shop. read more

My daughter found a prom dress she wanted, but it was a bit pricey for a dress that would likely only be worn for one night. I searched the internet to see if I could find the dress for a better price, and I was thrilled to find it on sale at Southern Belle Rose. My only concern was whether we could get the dress in time to have it altered before prom (we are in San Diego, so picking it up was not an option :-P). I called the shop and spoke to Yuri, who was absolutely wonderful! Yuri worked with me to make sure the dress would arrive in time for my daughter to have it altered before prom. Yuri packed the dress immediately to ship it out the same day and gave me an option and pricing for expedited shipping (ground shipping would have been free, but the savings on the dress price was far more than the extra cost of expedited shipping). After I gave Yuri the shipping address by phone, he even double checked the address in Google maps to ensure he had the correct address. Thank you, Yuri and Southern Belle Rose! read more

If I had the opportunity I would give them 0 stars!! The man in the Store is EXTREMELY RUDE!! I took my daughter and her friend to shop for prom dresses, they were so excited and Southern Belle is the first store we came to. We were not greeted upon entry. I noticed but my daughter and Abi were so excited I let them go digging for gowns. Once my daughter chose a couple of dresses he went in the dressing room before her and told her to "Read The Rules" I thought to myself wow, that is your first line of communication? The man told the nice lady working there to "Size Her" (My daughter's friend) his tone was very very dry. While my daughter was trying on a dresses I decided to help Abi search for a dress. I pulled one down and gently laid it out on the couch for her to get a better look. The man walked by and said "We have rules on how our dresses are handled. I said ok, I didn't know that. I saw another dress and unzipped it. The man comes back again in a not so nice tone, "Ma'am I don't think you understand our rules." I said apparently I don't because no one barely said anything to us. At this point I was over it. My daughter did not want to try on anymore dresses. This was very upsetting for them and me because this is their first prom and the first store we chose to come to. Customer service was absolutely HORRIBLE!! I would not recommend this place! I'm not sure if the man is the owner or not but his attitude is AWFUL! They could have very well man over 1K on prom dresses from us, but we don't spend where we are not wanted!! There are so many other bad reviews and they pretty much sound all the same. The man is RUDE!!! Check your attitude at the door MR.!!!!! read more

Nina was very nice. She was very help and patient. Even though I was only looking and buy anything, she gave me a lot of suggestion. Will definitely come back again. read more

I had an amazing experience at Southern Belle Rose in 2017 when shopping for my wedding gown. I went in to find my perfect gown, and while none were exactly what I was looking for, we did find one that had a good base at a great price (about $750). She did SO much to it to make it perfect. The original dress was sleeveless and very low cut. She was able to add a beautiful lace to the top and sleeves. She truly made it perfect, and her talents did not go unnoticed. She also took part of my mother's 80's wedding gown and make a ring bearer pillow and floral sash with it. She is THE most talented seamstress I have ever come across. My family has been using her for as long as I can remember-my grandmother refused to go anywhere else for alterations. read more

I went in to the store a few days ago looking for bridal shoes and bridesmaids dresses. The women in the store was incredible rude and far from helpful. It was not busy, as I was the only person in the store, yet when i inquired about a specific shoe and the sizes they had, she wouldnt even come to the shoe area she just stood at the front and was just acting as if my business was not worth her time. Going to this shop was a complete waste of time and wouldnt recommend it to ANYONE!! read more

Not the best service.. I didn't get the help I was looking for. The lady seemed lost when I told her what I was looking for. They didn't even clip the dresses to show you how it would look fitted. It was hard imagining how the dress would look if none of them were clipped. The sizes were off. I'm a size 3, but most dresses were pretty small. Which would mean.. plus size brides could not try on their dresses!! The styles were a bit outdated with a small selection. I rather go down to Glitz or The White Room where they can professionally help you. read more

I went to Southern Belle Rose looking for a bridal hair accessory. The focus in the store is undoubtedly on gowns (prom and bridal), but there was a small selection of what I was looking for. The woman who helped me--Nina (?), from what I inferred on signs/cards posted around the store--made several suggestions for me, in an effort to complement my hair type and dress style. I quickly learned that not everything has a price tag; come well-informed! Knowing that bridal accessories are more expensive than non-nuptial counterparts, I was able to negotiate with Nina, based on my budget and what was appropriate. I wasn't prepared for this component, but If you're not very confident in this area, be sure to bring a buddy for opinion and support. Overall, I am quite pleased with the comb that I purchased, and the price that I paid. Nina's interactions with another customer there at the same time helped me to feel that she builds relationships with clientele who maintain ongoing business for her. I probably won't need to return any time soon, but I'm not sorry I stopped in. read more

After a day of looking at wedding dresses we found ourselves in Southern Belle Rose. I can tell you, I'm glad we made it our last stop. We arrived close to 5pm and the owner began helping my fiancé. They looked at this dress, that dress, I picked out some etc. The owner showed great detail in listening to my future wife's wants and desires in a wedding dress. After looking and trying on, the owner made sure to provide every detail in regards to altering the dress, the hair piece, ear rings, I mean everything. All the other stores were helpful, but Southern Belle made this an experience to remember for sure. The owner stayed an additional 45 min after closing to make sure every detail was taken care of, absolutely amazing service! read more

Nina and Yuri are the best people and are so capable and amazing at what they do!! From ordering beautiful dresses from the best designers to altering them to perfection... they are so kind their store is a gem!! read more

AWFUL. The lady didn't even greet us when we walked in..and then when we finally got her to talk with us she almost made me cry. She looked me up & down and said "no, no, I don't have anything that will fit your size." (I'm a 14/16) And she basically just kept reiterating that I was bigger than I said I am and that she didn't have anything for me. She was such a turd! Don't waste your time here ladies! Spend your money elsewhere. read more

If you're a perfectionist, then Nina is your person. I had my wedding dress altered at Southern Belle Rose after a referral from a good friend of mine, and I was hesitant at first, since this is not where I purchased my dress, but all of my concerns flew out the window after meeting with Nina. She actually removed the skirt of my original dress to replace it with a skirt I liked better than the original. This was a lofty ask, and Nina came through like a champion. After 4 rounds of fittings (my dress required that extra attention), the final product was and is perfection. Please be considerate and make an appointment with Nina if you are wanting to do dress alterations, or even to go look for wedding dresses to purchase, because she is a one-woman show, and she, too, is human and needs time to get things done. You'll be much happier if you make an appointment, too, because then she can give all of her time and attention to you, rather than having to simultaneously run the store with multiple customers and act as your consultant. I am so grateful to Nina. She pays acute attention to detail, and with a dual mechanical + electrical engineering degree (we talked a lot!) earned before she started working full time as a seamstress, you can bet she won't give your dress back to you until she's completely satisfied with its outcome (i.e. perfection). Solid price point, too, because she knows what it was like to pay so much for alterations! She decided to make sure her work was affordable, yet reasonable for her impeccable talents. Southern Bell Rose definitely has my vote, and I'll certainly be a return customer! read more

Southern Belle Rose - Dress taken apart and remade + altered by Nina! - Sewing & Alterations Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

Aweful. I am a plus sized bride, and was just glossed over. It almost had me cry when I was offered no help in and out of the dress. Never go here. read more

The woman & man did not even greet our party as we walked in! The staff was rude and completely ignore us as we tried on dresses. Worst experience in a dress shop I have ever had! Terrible costumer service!! Do not waste your time here. read more

Worst prom dress shopping experience I've had to date. Took my younger sister on her first dress shopping experience and was greeted by A repugnant sales associate. Dresses that had already been purchased were left out with no marking of any sort and when she went to try some of them on got yelled at in front of the entire "store". Turned what should've been a very fun day into an unpleasant experience. read more

Nina did alterations to two dresses for a wedding and did an outstanding job at a fair price. She was on time with each fitting. She has an artistic eye on adding darts to help balance the dress and make better looking. read more

I asked which designers they carried and Nina said "Which designer are you looking for?" What? Why not just answer the question? I told her what I was looking for (vow renewal, Hawaii, fit and flare) and she rudely said "You'll have to make an appointment." It was here's your hat, what's your hurry. I don't know if it's because the store is so small they can only wait on one person at a time--and apparently someone was back there trying something on--or if she just forgot her meds. I told her I'd look around and get some ideas. When I walked to the door ten minutes later she materialized out of nowhere to schedule that appointment, which didn't happen. Then she gave me her card. Too little, too late. I can go anywhere (and I do mean anywhere including online) and get a dress. read more

I walked in and the lady asked what I was looking for, then said she had other matters to attend to. When another customer walked into the store she spent time helping her and did not try to reconnect with me again. The customer service is partial to clientele. read more

My daughter purchased her wedding dress, and bridesmaid dresses from Southern Bell Rose. She absolutely loved the dresses, and Nina was very accommodating with altering and general advice. Shopping and alternation experience was perfect! She's was super nice and professional. Just to show how fabulous she was, we had an issue when the shop was closed and Nina was on vacation out of the country. She actually phoned us when she received our email (since the wedding was near). Thank you Nina!! read more

Southern Belle Rose exceeded my expectations. I regrettably ordered my bridesmaids dress last minute (from another source) and by the time I picked it up and tried it on I realized how incredibly ill-fitted it was! I would have needed Dolly Parton boobs to fill out the cups. I panicked and called Southern Belle Rose and they told me to come in the next day. I literally walked in, put on the dress, she pinned me, and I was out in 10 minutes! She had it back to me in 2 days, and at a really fair price! Just in time for the wedding. It wasn't just the service, the quality of the work showed. It fit me perfectly, and I couldn't even tell an alteration was made to the chiffon. read more

Wonderful! I found this shop b/c my sister actually bought her wedding dress from Southern Belle Rose many years ago. I recall her telling me the story of how blessed she was when she stumbled upon this little shop. Now it was my season to look for dresses and I stopped in today without an appt. I met Nina, the owner, and she was busy at first but I did not have an appointment. That was actually a plus for why I came - most bridal shops DO require appointments and if you are new to dress shopping, you must understand this is par for the course...to just stop in and expect full service in a boutique that doesn't require appointments is not only unrealistic, it's unkind as customers to expect it- esp in the bridal industry. I did not expect the owner to help me but I ended up being the only one in the shop at the hour and she was able to help me try on dresses (being an introvert, I typically want to shy away from this) but she was awesome! I have spent time in Europe so I am cultured and realize when I meet a woman from there, I know I am in for a treat! These women are strait to the point but they're some of the most hard working, excellence-minded, detail oriented women you'll ever meet. She picked out dresses patiently with me listening to what I knew I wanted. I was shocked at how quickly she picked up on my style. Then I found out that as the owner, she also does the alterations! It's a one stop shop! As a bride, this is a major plus. Nina is not only professional, she is kind, she loves beauty and has an eye for it. I never felt like a burden to her; she was very willing to work with me. I walked over to photographs of brides she had sold dresses to on her wall and she humbly told me story upon story of what she did alterations wise to each dress to make the bride feel completely beautiful in her dress, meeting her every need! Southern Belle Rose has my vote! It has just the right amount of dresses; not too overwhelming...I saw gowns in there that I had not seen in other stores. My experience was very positive. read more

Nina was absolutely wonderful at this store when I went to try on bridal gowns. As another reviewer mentioned, she was patient with me (I take a LONG time to make decisions) and listened carefully to what I wanted. But she also suggested some silhouettes that I wouldn't normally try on--and I'm so glad she did! It was so beautiful it immediately became my favorite. Nina took a lot of time with my appointment--I never felt rushed. She is obviously dedicated to helping you find the right dress for you. I'd recommend this place to anyone! read more

Worst 2000$ I ever spent. Wish I had gone somewhere else. I traveled to Nashville for my wedding dress and went through about five or six shops. I finally found my dress at Southern Belle Rose. The lady who runs the shop has a very strong accent and I'm convinced can hardly understand english. When we discussed the price of my dress she informed us (my mom, my sister, and I) that alterations were included in the price. Thinking this was fishy I asked to confirm at all 3 fittings! I had two bridesmaids at each of the appointments and even they agreed this woman said alterations were included. I knew this was odd and not normal but I paid a lot of money for this dress. A few hundred more then any dress I had tried on before. She ended charging me 500$ for alterations. She charged me around 200$ for my bustle to me put on. The bustle was a joke! She charged me 200$ for 3 plastic buttons and 3 little loops of ribbon! The button were so cheap and she had not measured my bustle right so it dragged on the floor causing a groomsmen to step on my dress and all three PLASTIC button popped of leaving me with no bustle. Luckily I had a hanger strap underneath my dress we ended wrapping around my wrist, but if you charge me 200$ for a bustle I at least expect metal buttons! To add insult to injury she left a pin in my bodice my ended up stabbing me during my pictures that morning and my mother (on my wedding day) had to take scissors to my dress because she had left strips of tulle still attached to my dress. I do not recommend this shop in the slightest to anyone. Even when we brought up that I had checked about the price and everything. She just gave me a look like I was stupid (I am a Civil Engineer) and told me I was wrong but would take off 50$. Do not go here! read more
