Buying your dream wedding dress is easily one of the most important parts of wedding planning, and is something that many brides think about long before they even meet their life partner. Finding the perfect gown for you starts with the right bridal shop, and if you're in Texas, the amount of Dallas bridal shops might feel a little overwhelming. Narrowing them down can be tough, especially when so many have great reviews. Every bridal shop is unique, with a different array of designers and a range of prices that can vary. You'll want to find a shop that can fit your budget and has styles and designers that match the look you're going for.

It also doesn't hurt to find a shop that is beautifully decorated to make the whole experience feel even more special. Fortunately, Dallas has plenty of those. From one-stop shops that offer it all to more intimate stores with unique curated collections, there's something for everyone. Below are our picks for the best Dallas bridal shops, and you can find even more and more information on The Knot.

Circle Park Bridal Boutique

A highly rated favorite in the area, Circle Park Boutique is a family-owned Dallas bridal shop that offers almost everything a bride needs to wear for their big day. Brides can expect personalized styling services at their dress shopping appointment to find the perfect option. They offer a wide selection of dresses, including special-order bridal gowns, couture collections, exclusive designers and discounted sample sale wedding dresses. They also carry a large selection of plus-size wedding dresses with plus-size samples in sizes ranging from 18-30. Standout designers include Mori Lee, Essense of Australia, Stella York and Julietta. Aside from dresses, Circle Park sells bridesmaid dresses, veils, jewelry and other bridal accessories, special occasion dresses for all other wedding-related events and even some gifts.

Review Spotlight: "I went to 2 other bridal shops in Dallas prior to my appointment at Circle Park. I was feeling pretty discouraged after some disappointing appointments and felt like I just wasn't going to have that "feeling" that I found my dress…until I went to Circle Park. I shared some inspo of what I like and what I was interested in, and the very first dress that Haley pulled for me gave me that 'feeling' I was searching for. The first dress! Haley was such a blessing to work with and so patient and SO helpful! They provided me with such a phenomenal experience that was missing from the other places I went to in Dallas. I would highly recommend Circle Park to any bride in the DFW area. And Haley! Because she was seriously the best." —Stephanie W., The Knot Marketplace

Gowns of Grace

The family-owned and operated Gowns of Grace makes shopping for your wedding gown a really fun experience with their private viewing rooms. Instead of trying on your gown in front of other customers (which can be a stressful experience for some), you get a private space with a group of up to six guests and a personal stylist who is there to find exactly what you need. Each viewing room is meant to be like a mini party: there's a Bluetooth speaker for you to listen to your music of choice, Wi-Fi, phone chargers and table space if you want to bring in outside drinks or snacks. Gowns of Grace says they have the largest selection of plus-size dresses in the area, and the prices range from $1,350 to $6,500 (or $599 to $1350 for off-the-rack samples), so there's something for most budgets. Popular designers include Allure, Watters, Justin Alexander and Madison James, among others. You'll also find jewelry and veils and flower girl dresses, and they offer alteration services.

Review Spotlight: "This was the best bridal boutique I've ever been to! I had already tried on 50 dresses when I finally came here. They were so patient with me. I tried on so many dresses and not once were they irritated like some of the other boutiques I had been to. Everyone was kind and helpful. They had a huge variety of new dresses and their shop is adorable. The alterations were perfect and I knew I could trust them to do what I needed. I would highly recommend it." —Mariah D., The Knot Marketplace

Georgio's Bridal

They offer plus-size options as well, and showcase designers including Martina Liana, Watters, Maggie Sottero, Wilderly and Stella York. Prices range between $1,400 to $5,000, so it's better for brides with a more moderate budget.

Review Spotlight: "Cannot say enough good things about this store and the owner. She is so kind, compassionate and thoughtful. Very LGBT+ friendly. She will help you find your dress and make sure it is perfect! I wanted so many alterations to my dress she not only worked with the manufacturer to get me the changes, she looked at other dresses on the vendor website that fit what I was looking for while waiting for an answer from the vendor. My dress is so perfect and one of a kind. Most important of all, my grandmother got to come with me and go wedding dress shopping for the first time in her life!
