Review Spotlight: "I tried on almost 100 dresses, and anna bé was my last chance to find something I loved. I have a pretty untraditional style, especially when it comes to bridal, but Kelsey totally got me. I found an incredible dress, and even got to meet the designer after I bought it. Dress shopping was turning into something I really dreaded before finding anna bé! I've been to legitimately every bridal shop in Denver, and this is by far the best." —Angela R., The Knot Marketplace

Review Spotlight: "I LOVED working with the whole team and staff at Emma and Grace Bridal! When shopping for my dress, I told them my vision, and the first dress they brought out to me happened to be "the one". It was perfect for me and the vision for my day. They also didn't shy away when I said I wanted to add sleeves. They completely customized my look and tailored it to me perfectly! I didn't want to take the thing off! All the staff at Emma and Grace are so sweet and they greeted me with such enthusiasm every time I came to the shop :) Their variety in dresses was so much fun to go through as well!!" —Shelly A., The Knot Marketplace

This was the third place I went to, after learning that I needed to have a lower budget (and seriously, the prices for the quality and quantity of dresses here is amazing). The experience was just like a really high end boutique. The inside is beautiful and comfortable, and everyone is so nice. Kayla, my stylist, especially deserves a huge shout-out. She really listened to what I said I liked and immediately picked out my favorite dress ever for me to try. I thought I was being too picky with what I wanted, but she found it for me!!

Review Spotlight: "I went to one salon before Luv and didn't have the best experience. Wedding dress shopping was the thing I was looking forward to the least about wedding planning. I don't have a great relationship with my body and I was dreading it. As soon as I walked into Luv, I was greeted by my stylist Tay and we walked around to get a feel for styles and dresses. She was absolutely amazing. She made me feel so comfortable and listened to my concerns and helped me pick the most beautiful dream wedding dress. The studio also ended up expediting the order for free for me. I can not speak more highly of the entire staff/team there, but especially Tay." —Colleen L., The Knot Marketplace

Review Spotlight: "I purchased my wedding dress from LWD, and my experience was everything I could have asked for and more. Nancy was incredibly kind and patient, and she really listened to me in regard to what I wanted/saw in my dream dress that was within my budget, as I knew exactly what I wanted going into this experience. I went to many other bridal salons that made me try on designs and styles that I had no interest in while also feeling pressured to buy something, and I never felt that way here. In addition, the designers that they carry are the best of the best. They truly do carry the most beautiful dresses in the city of Denver, and they also use the best seamstress in town as well. Thank you to LWD for making such an important part of the wedding planning process so enjoyable!" —Janelle E., The Knot Marketplace
