I made a reservation here to try on dresses not expecting to find "the one", I just wanted to get my feet wet. I had inspo of what I wanted in a dress, I received a text about 5 days before my appointment to confirm and also to send any inspo for dresses that I had. My appointment was on a Saturday afternoon, and the St Pete area is pretty busy on the weekends but surprisingly I had no issues finding parking. We were greeted right away by Lauren, we sat and talked about how my husband and I met and what I was looking for in a dress and my price range. She had already pulled some dresses based on the inspo pictures I sent over, and then I also perused the racks to pick some items I wanted to try on as well. I tried on 4 dresses, but I knew the 2nd dress I tried on was the one the moment I put it on. This was one of the dresses Lauren had already pulled for me. We discussed alteration potential, and she referred me to their alterations place that does great work, I was able to get in that following Tuesday morning for alterations without any issues. Lauren helped me find EXACTLY what I wanted in a wedding dress and within my price range - the effort she put in and how great she was during our appointment just made everything feel so smooth and seamless. This was one of the bigger stressors on my wedding to-do list and I'm just super grateful that it ended up being one of the easiest things to check off of my list - and I owe a great deal of that ease to Lauren and The Dressing Room St Pete. I would definitely recommend this bridal boutique to other brides and anyone just trying to figure out what they want in a wedding dress, you might surprise yourself like I did and find the one on the first try!! read more

Got to accompany one of my best friend's and her family to pick out her wedding dress, and she found one here! We had a lovely experience and the consultant who helped our group was great. She took exactly what my friend said she liked and didn't like with each dress and found better options, leading her to find the dress of her dreams. They have a cute space in a fantastic location in St. Pete! read more

I just purchased a dress on Saturday from The Dressing Room and had the BEST experience! The shop is so cute and there is an incredible selection of dresses. I loved every dress I put on! Sarah was super helpful and was able to meet my vision. She asked great questions and was able to pick out what she knew would look great on my body type and would be a great material for a beach ceremony! I tried on 7 dresses in less than an hour and walked away with a dress under budget! I highly recommend The Dressing Room if you're wanting an incredible wedding dress fitting experience! read more

The owner is SO KIND! Although I didn't find my dress at her shop, Lena had such beautiful dresses and designs! She was so helpful and supportive of me and my dress finding journey and even helped me to realize that I had already found my dream dress. She told me to go get it! She's like a fairy bride mother and I left her shop feeling so supported and happy about my decision. She truly helped me realized what I wanted ! Thank you Lena! read more

It was a beautiful experience, great selections. Am the mother of the bride, I can honestly say she loved every moment of the dresses she tried on...Very emotional day for all in attendance. Thank you for making her dream dress come true .... SHE SAID YES TO THE DRESS!!!! Ladies if you don't live in St. Petersburg it is worth the trip to drive there you won't be disappointed, BEAUTIFUL DRESSES!! Thank you for your services read more

The Dressing Room - She said YES to the dress - Bridal Near Me - Saint Petersburg, Florida

This was my first time shopping for a wedding dress and I loved my first experience. I didn't book the vip experience since I only bought one friend with me and this trip was more of a trial and error to see what styles i like. I had no idea where to begin! Sarah made me feel welcome and she was very helpful narrowing down what style dresses I like for my body type. She was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. I had a great experience with this place! The prices are very reasonable here, which I was surprised given that it is a small boutique store. There were many many dresses in the store and The online booking system was so easy to do. Highly recommended! read more

In my wedding dress shopping search, this was one of the stores I was most looking forward to visiting. Even though I didn't get my dress here, this was a great experience! While researching dresses I liked, I made up a spreadsheet of local shops and listed the designers they carried to make sure their style was a good fit for me beforehand. The Dressing Room definitely had the widest selection of dresses that suited my vision, and their prices were mostly in my budget as well. Like most dress shops, the store lists their price range on their website, with gowns from $1,000 to $3,000, with most falling between $1,500 and $2,200. Considering I was trying to stay under $2,000, that suited my needs perfectly -- and they only had one small rack of dresses in the $2,000 - $3,000 range, so we didn't bother looking at those. When you book an appointment online, they send you a questionnaire to fill out, which asks for your style preferences, including which dress silhouettes you like (A-line, mermaid, etc.), necklines, sleeves, trains and fabrics. Once I arrived, my consultant Sierra briefly sat down with me and asked me about my wedding and what I was looking for in a dress, then began pulling dresses for me to try. I liked more of the dresses I tried on at this store than at any other store I visited, which I think is a testament to their selection. Each gown I liked, Sierra hung up on the wall to give me a visual so I could compare them side-by-side. I've seen others say you get the entire store to yourself for your appointment, but I don't know if that is entirely true. There was another group on the other side of the curtain during my appointment. Granted, I never actually SAW them, just heard them. Certainly my side was large enough to be its own store. But just FYI, there was another party there while I was there. I think it's just more accurate to say you get an entire SIDE to yourself -- which is great, don't get me wrong. The first store I'd gone to felt slightly claustrophobic so this was a welcome change indeed. Also, this store is absolutely adorable -- one of the prettiest shops I visited during my dress search! read more

Review update and still 5 stars! They have since expanded the shop to nearly double it in size, since my last visit. WOW. It is still so pretty and dainty despite being filled to the rim with options upon options. The dresses really range in price which is definitely trickier to find. As low as $900 to beyond $3,000. Due to the pandemic you may only bring up to 4 guests. But really, I don't think you should be bringing more than 4 guests to any bridal appointment anyway. The gals are so lovely and so patient. They are also very vocal with their opinion! So if you want someone to be real with you-this might be your best bet. read more

Originally, my fiancée and I made separate bridal appointments for a few months out in March, as our wedding is next December. However, after stumbling across The Dressing Room's Instagram post about their Off the Rack $199 dresses, we thought it would be a fun idea to check out the featured dresses and try some on. We called the shop and spoke to Tiffany, who seemed to be pleasant. She told us there was an opening for 2pm on the same afternoon. We weren't expecting an appointment so soon, so we both were thrilled! We then looked at the time and realized we wouldn't be able to make it on time, as we live 2 hours away. We politely asked if we could move the appointment back to 2:30, to which she immediately shut us down and said "No...uh-uh." This was jarring to us, as we simply just asked a question - we understand that spots can be tight in the bridal world. This phone call experience, as well as the time constraint, made us comfortable so we decided to cancel the appointment through the text communication that alerted us to confirm our appointment. We got a response back, asking us if we meant to cancel, and we explained the timing dilemma. She then replied back, asking if 3:30 would work better for us. Although our initial experience was a little disheartening, and we were at this point apprehensive about what the experience in person would be like as two brides, we decided to take the appointment and drive 2 hours up to St. Pete. Well, we are SO GLAD we did... Upon our arrival, we were greeted by Dayzha with the warmest welcome and a beaming smile. We told her we were two brides, also fiancées to one another, and were looking to try on some dresses for our wedding next year. She was so patient with both of us and really made us feel special and included. With her help, we tried on many dresses that suited our budget, interest, and varying body types. From her expertise to her bubbly hype girl personality, Dayzha was nothing short of amazing to work with. She turned our experience with TDR completely around, and we are so grateful that we put our guards down and took the trip up to St. Pete. We now are looking forward to our alterations in the upcoming months, as we both said YES to the dress yesterday!! Thank you, Dayzha and TDR for giving these two brides all the feels for our future wedding! If you're still reading this, the verdict is yes, we definitely would recommend you give this unique bridal shop a try. Best of luck, future brides! read more

My family and I had the best time here! Sarah was OUTSTANDING! Found my perfect dress and they even helped me make sure it was in my budget. It's appointment only so no one interrupts you. The girls there are such team players and made sure no one needed help before leaving! 10/10 wouldn't recommend anywhere else. Also ask for Sarah!!!!! read more

Disappointed - the dresses they allowed us to see were dirty in the armpits and scuffed up - very disturbing to have to put on these dresses with someone else's sweat and makeup on them- and these were the dresses they wanted you to buy off the rack. store separated by a curtain - another bride-to-be was on the opposite side. when I asked about the other dresses - she stated someone else was on that side ( even after she had left) sorry but unless you want a dirty dress I'd go elsewhere. read more

WHOA! How can I give this boutique more than 5 stars? I actually had a multitude of experiences with The Dressing Room, as a friend got married there almost 2 years ago. I went with her to her fitting and knew that when my time came, I wanted to check out their styles and book my appointment there. Here I am! I originally scheduled for November 14, but due to Covid - had to reschedule. Jenna, the individual I was in communication with, was absolutely amazing and SO understanding. She quickly removed me from the schedule with no fee and no problem. When I was ready to reschedule, the date I needed was available! Thank Goodness! I chose a later appt, because I had an appt had a boutique prior to them. I was literally taking photos with the "say yes to the dress" sign at the first boutique (I know, I'm nuts) but decided NOT to cancel the appointment because they were so nice and amazing to work with. I walked into the bridal boutique and was greeted by Tiffany. She was super friendly and her conversational skills were amazing. She had a few dresses already picked out that matched the style I was going for (from photos I had sent ahead of time!). We was patient with me and allowed me ample time to sift through their inventory and make my decision. Thank the LORD I did not buy my dress from the previous boutique because after 20+ dresses, I SAID yes to the dress At the Dressing Room St. Pete! Highly recommend this place. They truly made me feel SO special from the minute I made contact with them. If you're a bride and looking for a boutique with knowledge, compassion, and patience - this is your place! read more

The experience here is second to none and I didn't even buy my dress here! When you book an appointment, they try to find out everything about you so they can be as prepared as possible. And once you arrive, you get the entire place to yourself! I felt truly understood here, being plus sized and wanting a showstopper. And the prices were quite reasonable! The ONLY reason I didn't buy here is because it just so happened they didn't have THE dress, although they had lots and lots of great dresses that will make many women happy. Thank you for carrying plus size options and for really taking your time with each customer. read more

This took me a few months to write this review, because I've never done this before- but here it goes. My experience at the Dressing room was so disappointing; a bride should never feel the way I did when shopping for her wedding dress with her mom, sister, and future mother in law. First, I made an appointment about 2 weeks in advance. I answered all the questions they asked- my wedding date, wedding dress style, and my budget. So I show up at the store with my family at our scheduled time-- the door is locked. A girl opens the door and says, "do you have an appointment?" To which I reply, yes, my name is Shannon, we made an appointment for this scheduled time.It honestly looked like a chore for her to let us in. I know I saw her eyes roll multiple times. I'm sorry, what? We're here to spend a ton of money. Who starts off a customer's experience like that? So we sit down, and awkwardly watch her try to pick out dresses for me in complete silence. No hospitality whatsoever. She made no effort to make it the fun, exciting experience that it should be. Anyway, Long story short, she basically pushes me to start making cuts and decisions on dresses, after only trying on 5-6. I felt extremely pressured and uncomfortable. Of course I'm smiling the whole time though, acting excited, because that's how I wanted to feel. I wanted to pick out a dress dress that day, because it was the only day my family would be visiting me here from Wisconsin. Looking back, I feel so taken advantage of. So, I up picking "the one", and I take it to the seamstress a few months later. This lady looked at me in shock, saying, "who would ever advise you to get a dress this big on you?! No one ever does this." I was horrified and wanted to cry. Yes, I knew it was big on me, but this sales consultant didn't warn me at all, or even mention, how much I would have to take my dress in!! Literally, from a size 10 to a size 4. She just hid it all with the clips in back and made it seem totally normal. Its like she just wanted to sell me the cheap dress off the rack and be done with me and my less than $2,000 budget. I won't mention her name, because I don't want to get that specific. But her service, attitude, and indifference for our dress shopping experience, spoke volumes about this business. Thanks to you guys, and your poor advisement, I currently have more than $500 invested in alterations. I felt totally shrugged off, and so did my family. Now I'm looking online (Stillwhite) to buy my actual wedding dress (because I hate how my current dress looks on me with all the fabric gone and major alterations). Fun, right? Well, it's actually better than having a snotty and disrespectful salesperson whispering lies into your ear. What a joke. Shame on you, Dressing Room. Would not recommend this place to anyone who values their wedding dress shopping experience with kind, trustworthy people . read more

Jenna was fabulous! She listened to what I thought I wanted, had a vision, and killed the game! I ended up going with the first dress I tried on lol. She was easy to converse with and my group valued her input. So so many dresses to try in but I'm happy she helped narrow that down for me. I ordered my dress and it came in super fast. It's nice that they have a texting system too makes communication super easy. Thank you!! read more

The Dressing Room - Thanks Jenna! - Bridal Near Me - Saint Petersburg, Florida

Absolutely recommend this boutique for any bride. My daughter was in a very tight timeline and initially went to a chain shop and was rushed into a decision and sold a dress their alteration lady said the sizing was so off and should not have been sold to her. From the first phone call to The Dressing Room it was top notch. They got her in last minute. My daughter knew from as soon as we walked in, this was the place. From the quality of each dress to the amazing staff (wish I could remember her name) was perfect. read more

My daughter (who lives in California)  asked me to arrange appointments for wedding dress shopping over a two day weekend. I researched and chose 5 places based on reviews, size of the store, number of dresses and selection in the store, and awards "Hall of Fame"  "Best". We started at a smaller boutique in Sarasota, and then on to two larger stores in Tampa.  After a long day and trying on many many dresses, we only found one "maybe" dress. Sunday, we started bright and early and  rested and hopeful.   When we walked into the "Dressing Room" we were greeted by Tiffany and she was bubbly, sweet and ready to jump in in help us find "the perfect dress".  From our emails as well as what we told her that morning, she picked out many dresses that were perfect!!  We actually had at least 5 dresses that we had to narrow down.  The day before, we had only one "maybe" and it was $3000!!!  When Tiffany told us the prices, we couldn't believe how reasonable they all were too!!  We loved having our own private side of the store to try on dresses.  We had he best time and experience!  And.....my daughter  said "Yes to the Dress" !!! I am telling you all this to save you the time...Bigger is not always better, and the one with the most awards is not always better.  Save your time and go right to the "Dressing Room"!  Everything from selection, price, private viewing and the most friendliest and accommodating team to work with you to find your perfect dress!! And the dress was in in less than a week!!!  Tiffany we cant thank you enough for all your time and help!!! read more

I am so happy I went to The Dressing Room! Sarah was so wonderful, helping, and not pushy at all. There are so many gorgeous dresses to choose from and I found my dream dress! I absolutely recommend checking this place out! read more

Just outstanding experience! So much to choose from. They made the whole experience for my daughter just outstanding!! Would highly recommend!! read more

I was in town from for one weekend and needed a dress in two months. The dresses stunning! The real stars here are the employees. The customer service this place rolls out is honestly rare. I didn't feel a burden and even with a a few hiccups they solved everything. They made me feel validated which is so refreshing. The first dress I tried on was the one so my only downside was that I couldn't spend more time there! They got my dress in time and were super responsive and seemed genuinely happy to help me. 10/10 read more

Initially we had a great experience, but after the dress had been purchased and was in, we went back to pick it up. Obviously my future daughter-in-law wanted to try it on, but she felt very rushed and it was like they just wanted us to get out. They were not warm at all. The gown needed to have a few alterations , but since The Dressing Room does not have their own seamstress, they highly recommend Central Alterations. We asked if they could call them for us, but they said no. They gave us the card and told us we would need to set it up. Not only did Central Alterations ruin the dress, but they ended up charging twice the amount they had quoted. We couldn't take the dress unless we paid them in cash. We are now having to have the dress completely redone. The Dressing Room will not respond to any of our phone calls. Future brides beware! read more

I had my appointment with The Dressing Room yesterday and had an amazing consultant, Ashley. She listened to what I wanted and was very helpful and thoughtful throughout my appointment. They had an extensive overall selection and a good number of plus size samples. Best salon / experience since I started dress shopping. After making the appointment, they welcomed pictures and questions via text ahead of the day of. I really appreciated this, and they were very quick to respond with answers. Best of all, I ended up saying "Yes to the Dress." Can't wait until it comes in! read more

We had an AMAZING experience with Jenna yesterday at The Dressing Room in St. Pete. I chose this salon as one of 3 places we were going to look for dresses with my sister. She went in knowing roughly what she wanted in a dress and Jenna was so wonderful listening to her and pulling dresses that were very much what she was interested in. I believe she tried on about 5 dresses, and fell in love with one in particular. We had another appointment to go to but we 100% came back to that original dress. Jenna was very flexible and warm. I couldn't have asked for a better consultant for this once in a lifetime experience for my sister! read more

This is the perfect bridal shop and has incredible staff. Appointment only which was much appreciated in COVID times. Sierra helped us out for a 90 minute appointment and she. Was. Incredible. I can not recommend her enough. She somehow made it through the complex thicket of conflicting preferences I had and picked out something I never thought I would like, that turned out to be my FAVORITE of the bunch. I felt at ease, valued, comfortable, heard and joyful. Sierra was supportive and accommodating and there was none of the weird pushy pressure that can come with other wedding dress places. read more

First off, unless you want to purchase off the rack allow yourself some decent time to order a dress. Once you get engaged it's probably the first purchase you will want to make. Now that you've given yourself enough time, make an appointment. This shop is not open to the public which you will appreciate as you will have all of the owners attention when you try on dresses. The owner, Judy, has been in this business a while and she knows her stuff. She has an amazing eye and works with your style and figure and really listens to what look you are going for. read more

The new owners made my amazing friend look absolutely beautiful and made her family and friends so happy with the results of her wedding dress during the companies transition of ownership ! Keep up the great work ! read more

I had my very first dress appointment at The Dressing Room, and came in with a small group of family (4 people, plus myself). I had no clear idea of what kind of dress I wanted, but I showed our consultant, Sierra, a picture of a "dream dress" I'd seen when dress shopping with a friend a few months prior. She picked several dresses for me, while still allowing me to look around the shop, should I want to choose something on my own. I still had another appointment elsewhere later in the day, so didn't want to say "yes" to anything right then. She was so understanding, and didn't come across pushy or salesy at all. Long story short: the next appointment elsewhere was a complete bust, and my whole family kept talking about how much they loved TDR. I made a follow-up appointment the next week and said yes to the dress...the one that Sierra picked out specifically for me after looking at my "dream dress" picture! The owner, Beth, was super helpful as well, and I felt welcome during both of my appointments. There were plenty of dresses in my price range, and they were all such high quality. Loved my experience here! read more

The staff was wonderful and the options were top notch! Highly recommend.

My sister and I went to the dressing room on Monday and had an amazing experience! It was my very first time wedding dress shopping. Jenna was my stylist and she was lovely lady who helped us out and she was absolutely amazing. Since it was my first time looking at dresses I was kind of all over the place with what I wanted. She was extremely patient with me and had amazing ideas. However, I found my final dress at another place but I really enjoyed the dressing rooms entire experience. If you want to have a great experience during this stressful yet exciting time of finding a dress go to the dressing room and ask for Jenna. Thanks again for all of your help. read more

UNDER NEW MANAGEMENT I must say, when I bought my dress from here and met who the owner was then vs when I go now, the improvements are huge. The old boss lady: I have nothing against the old owner. She dealt with the brides directly and scheduled a very intimate appointment for each to have her moment. I just feel like she came across as very blunt, abrupt, brash and brutally honest. All of those qualities have a time and place but the emotions are high when a woman is picking out her wedding dress. I could see how some might say she could be a bit of a bully. In my personal experience, she cancelled out my mom's crazy so it worked for me. I walked in knowing exactly what I wanted and she made it work out for me and for that I am truly appreciative. The new boss lady: Even though the previous owner ordered my dress in a size they don't make, I have to give it up to the new manager. She has gone above and beyond to fix the mistake and turn out one hell of a dress. Her whole team has entered the building with a breath of fresh air and made the whole experience so much more enjoyable. I could go on for paragraphs about the entire story but I am not as eloquent as the Fresh Prince so I will wrap this up the best way I can. TLDR: Out with the old and in with the new Rockstar staff!! read more

I only went to two places, the first was David's Bridal and this was the second. Let's just say, the first experience was stressful, pushy, and traumatizing. I had anxiety just coming to TDR because I wanted "my" dress. I wanted what felt right on me, not a more expensive out of price range dress that I wouldn't want to wear. I am SO glad I came here. I had the entire store to myself, which immediately put my nerves to ease. I worked with Jenna and she was absolutely amazing. Jenna had an amazing and friendly vibe. She was very professional, but down to earth and treated me like a friend. She would remind me when I asked about dresses that were out of my price range. She gave me a few recommendations, but let me go around the entire store and pick out dresses I liked. She helped clip me into them. Gave me the the time I needed to look at myself in the mirror. I was never rushed and I never felt pushed to buy. Even when I did find my dress, she made sure I was satisfied and didn't want to try on any other new ones or old that we already tried on. She even took my measurements and took pictures of my me with my mom. I highly recommend this place over others if you'd like a relaxed environment. Jenna is passionate about making you feel beautiful on your wedding! read more

My $2000 dress. Ripples down the entire front and all the cuts on the dress were completely crooked. Feel free to check out the photo. Also thanks for emailing me to let me know you removed my from WEDDINGWIRE and TIETHEKNOT. I didn't even know you could do that but it does explain why you do not have bad reviews on there. You destroyed my dress and laughed about it to another customer because you were so embarrassed. Thanks for the memories Judy. read more

The Dressing Room - My $2000 dress. Because in real life when they mess up your dress they send you on your marry way, and the show must go on - Bridal Near Me - Saint Petersburg, Florida

Yikes. I give the selection and the prices 4-5 stars, but I'm going to have to give The Dressing Room 3 stars for Judy's attitude. First, the pros: The Dressing Room is by appointment only, so you will get the undivided attention of Judy, the owner. She really knows her stuff. She put me into a great gown that was almost the one I ended up buying. They also have a wonderful system for alterations, where it's a flat $200 fee for anything that needs to be done. Finally, the store itself is adorable and really makes you feel like a princess. The cons: I did NOT love Judy's "New York" attitude. I get that it's her schtick. But there's a time and a place for IN YOUR FACE personality, and I don't feel like bridal gown shopping is it. She would be hilarious to watch on TV. And things might have gone better if I had been warned in advance to expect a certain level of.... theatrics. For example, we got there and she was asking me about the venue, formality level, etc, and I offered to show her the pictures of dresses that I liked. She was unhappy about that, but made a big show of looking at them to appease me. So, she looked at the dresses, looks over her glasses at me and goes, "And WHAT was your budget?" Then threw (!!!) the pictures back at me and slumped back in her chair. "You gotta be kidding me. These dresses are nowhere NEAR that!" I was quite taken aback by her behavior. I wasn't expecting her to have these exact dresses, and I didn't check the prices of them first. I just brought them in because every other bridal consultant likes it when you bring ideas of what you're looking for. Nobody has ever complained that I was giving them a direction to go in. It really made me feel bad about myself, which isn't how you want to start a bridal appointment. Towards the end of the appointment, things had gotten better and I was in a dress I really liked. We were talking about how Judy should have her own reality TV show, and she says to my sister, "Yeah! And you could be on it!" I assumed she was going to say something flattering, like "as a model!" But instead, she tells my sister (who's sensitive about her weight): "You could be on the show as my body guard!" Yikes. Her body guard? Pro tip, Judy: try not to insult the maid of honor while the bride is deciding whether or not to buy a dress from you. Anyway. It's worth a trip. She has a small, but interesting selection. And she's very funny. Just be warned that it's not going to be the flowers and champagne experience that you might have had at other places. read more

An amazing dress shop with dresses of impeccable quality and spectacular service. Can't believe I found this amazing dress shop through the vendor list at TheKnot.com! While it's hard as a bride to be cool, calm and collect closer to The Big Day, a little niceness goes a LONG way at the time you're looking for your wedding dress. While I was on a wedding vendor spree on a visit home, I tried making an appointment here on a free day on Sunday. While I was initially told the store doesn't open Sundays, the lady was nice enough to sympathize with me and open the store that Sunday just for me. A great dress boutique for those who hates aggressive bridal shops like I do. While the store does carry wedding dresses, it mostly carries colorful bridesmaid and mother of the bride/groom dresses. No worries though - most of the dresses come in the ivory or white appropriate for any bride. If you're looking for a simple yet unique and elegant wedding dress, this is a must-go place. One of the few (if not the only) dress boutique in Florida to carry Jenny Yoo and Thread, the two designers I was looking into for that perfect dress. While I fell in love with a Jenny Yoo strapless with convertible obi-like train construction, I chose a beautiful layered chiffon Thread Annabelle dress in Ivory. For what I paid for, I'd definitely take a unique dress of quality construction over mass-produced David's Bridal monstrosities anyday. Besides being nice enough to open the store when it's usually not open, the service Judith (the owner who helped me out) was spectacular. She was very helpful in ordering my dress and having it delivered to me up in DC, and her attention to detail was IMPECCABLE. From wrapping my necklace in pink tissue paper when I had to take it off to try dresses to the cute mints she included in the package my dress was delivered in, she is most definitely on top of things. read more

I loved my experience at The Dressing Room! First of all, Judy is wonderful. From when I arrived the first day until my very last fitting, Judy gave me all of her attention. Her high-fashion attention to detail is what really makes The Dressing Room special. Judy really listened to what I was looking for and helped me pick out my perfect dress. On to the fittings - Hugh was wonderful. He commits to stay within a $200 alterations budget and I had an impressive 4 fittings. My wedding photographer kept commenting that she loved the fit of my dress and that she could tell that it was altered to fit just right. I would highly recommend The Dressing Room to any bride who is looking for a small shop that will truly make your dress a priority. Thanks so much to Judy and Hugh for making my wedding dress shopping and alterations experience unforgettable! read more

Judy was absolutely amazing. I went in as an overwhelmed, clueless, indecisive girl trying on dresses but came out of The Dressing Room an informed, decisive, excited bride. Her personality was refreshing and exactly what I needed. Although I didn't walk out with my dress YET, I will definitely be back...not because I'm pressured to - but because I WANT to and will recommend her to everyone else. Must have an appointment, but I was lucky the store was empty when I called and she got me right in. Her prices are awesome compared to other prices I've seen. And their tailor will make all alterations for no more than 200. read more

Initially, the thought of shopping for a wedding dress was incredibly overwhelming and I feared I would never find something in my budget or something I would love that would fit me properly without hundreds of dollars of alterations. I am 6'0 and not a size 2. When a dear friend told me to try The Dressing Room, I had my doubts. The store is so gorgeous and intimate- I never believed I could afford something in such a beautiful place. But I went. I met Judy. When you first meet Judy, you just know she is a woman who knows what she is talking about. She was meant to own a beautiful bridal shop. She was meant to make brides feel beautiful and special. She is a presence...a warm and supportive presence. She is open minded, but offers wonderfully sound advice. She never scoffed at my humble budget (many shops had) or my ideas. She pulled several dresses for me to try and they were all beautiful. The very last one I tried on was it. I never felt so beautiful. Judy shared in my joy and was as excited as I was when I found The Dress. I never once felt pressured to make a decision. Judy let me have all the time I wanted...but when you know- you know! Did I mention I was under-budget?! Simply incredible. Then came the time for alterations and I met the incomparable Hugh. A man who knows his way around a wedding dress! Hugh has a gift. He was able to customize my dress perfectly to fit my body. He does not charge enough. When you work with Hugh, you feel like the only bride with the only wedding dress on the planet. He is a genius and was able to patiently listen to all of my concerns and questions and made my dress even more special. Judy and Hugh are a dream team and you must visit The Dressing Room. I am so glad I did and will forever have the perfect memories of the perfect dress-buying experience. Thank you Judy and Hugh!! read more

I have to say honestly this place is a dream. Judy is such an awesome person to work with and she's so enthusiastic about her job...it really makes the experience wonderful. The shop is amazing and very comfortable and private. It feels like I'm in there with my family. Everytime I leave I get a giant hug and a huge smile :) Being that most of my family is from out of town I've really had to go it alone on all of my visits and having Judy and Hugh..feels great! The prices are so affordable and my flower girl dresses were ordered pretty custom and it didn't create issues one bit. I can't wait to see how they look! Hugh, her tailor, seems like he can do just about anything you want no matter how drastic! I can't wait to see how my dress turns out. It's hard to find someone you can trust with your wedding dress. This place is it :) read more

Sierra did a phenomenal job pulling dresses, walking us through the process, and handling this very special occasion with such care and kindness. read more

I went to at least 5 wedding dress boutiques while looking for my dress but The Dressing room was BY FAR the best experience and had the best selection of dresses. The Dressing Room was unique because Judy (the wonderful owner) was so honest, helpful and fun! It is an intimate experience and while the boutique is small, the SELECTION of styles is LARGE. The Dressing Room carries a variety of gowns which was a relief since every other place I went seemed to have the same dresses. I use yelp often but this is my first ever yelp review! I would HIGHLY recommend visiting The Dressing Room while on your hunt for the perfect gown. read more
