1000000/10 recommend!!!
Where to start with A Little Something White?! After having an unfortunate experience at another bridal salon here in NYC, my google search took me to Darien, CT. Meg called me 10 min after sending an email and she was so kind and empathetic for what my situation was. She went the extra mile to find out answers to questions I had about a specific designer and after a few phone calls back and forth, I ended up making an appointment to try on some new dresses and Meg paired me with Nicole for my appointment.
Nicole called me the day before, already up to speed on my situation and we chatted about what I was looking for. She introduced me to a new designer I had never heard of (and I had scowered the internet lol). From the second I met Nicole, I knew she and I would click. She was kind, empathetic, respectful of my budget and determined to help me find the one. On my first appointment she allowed me to peruse the racks of dresses within in my budget and after picking out a few, we got on with the appointment. She made me feel so comfortable the entire time, was easy to talk to and she went the extra mile taking photos and videos of the contender dresses for me since I came to my appointment alone. She even kept me hydrated with water throughout my appointment! Nicole truly made me feel like a queen. After narrowing down to a few dresses, I made a second appointment for the following week.
The week leading up to my 2nd appointment, I had some questions, and she answered them in a prompt and timely manner and reminded me of the prices of each gown I had narrowed down to so I could budget and plan.
On my second appointment with Nicole, I brought my family with me and once again she was just as amazing, and we narrowed down to one dress. My family still has not stopped talking about Nicole and just how incredible she was. I could go on and on, but after shopping at 8 different bridal salons in the New York City and Long Island area, NONE of them compared to Nicole and the incredible treatment at A Little Something White. I cannot recommend them enough!!
If you are in NYC, PLEASE don’t hesitate on this shop because it is in Connecticut. The shop is conveniently located right off the Darien train station which is not a far commute from Grand Central at all. Your experience here will supersede anything you will find in NYC and I can say that with confidence.
Thank you Nicole, Meg and A Little Something White for an unbelievable experience on my bridal journey. This is how every bride should feel when shopping for their wedding dress. <3
We couldn’t be more pleased with the help we received with our dress and suit. Krissy and Chantel were outstanding—super knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive. They truly made the whole experience enjoyable and stress-free.
From our initial visit to the final fittings, everything was seamless. Their support and care helped us feel relaxed and confident throughout the process. Highly recommend their services!
The best experience! So many gorgeous dresses. I found the perfect one for me.
Any questions?
Amazing bridal boutique! A lot of different dresses, variety of designers and styles. The employees are all very friendly and knowledgeable of the dresses!
Nicole was an amazing stylist that was very knowledgeable, accommodating, and kind. She listened to my wants and concerns and was so easy to talk to and work with. She made the overall experience so special and fun that I wish I could relive it over and over again. Everyone should go see Nicole at A Little Something White- you won’t be disappointed :)
A Little Something White was the best decision I made for finding a wedding dress. From the moment I entered, I was made to feel incredibly comfortable! Nicole, my stylist, was exceptional - from the warmth she exuded to how she took time to let me & my mom browse the different dresses! Getting into bridal gowns is not easy, and she made that part of the experience just so seamless. I highly recommend Nicole and ALSW for your bridal gown needs!
This is the BEST store ever. This was my first and only store. I worked with Krissy and she was amazing. I didn’t know what to expect going into my first dress try on but she exceeded all of my expectations! I loved being able to browse through the dresses myself, which is very unique about ALSW. Krissy is very attentive to detail and very compassionate. During my process I was starting to feel a little defeated, trying on dress after dress, but suddenly Krissy picked out one last dress for me to try on….and it was PERFECT! She knew exactly what I wanted and made the whole experience everything I could’ve imagined and MORE!! So happy his is my bridal salon!!
It was a beautiful experience. My niece was able to come, which meant a lot to me.
I had the BEST experience with Krissy at A Little Something White! I had shopped all over NYC and CT looking for the perfect dress, but no other store or stylist delivered the upscale selection or top notch service that I received at A Little Something White. Krissy asked all the right questions, paid close attention to what I was looking for, and knew exactly what dresses to put me in. I loved being able to browse through the selection of dresses myself, but ultimately said yes to Krissy’s 1st pick for me! Throughout the entire process, she made me feel so confident and patiently addressed any questions and concerns I had. I never felt rushed or pressured to make a decision. Even my mom and friends commented on what a pleasure it was to work with her and how fun the experience was, especially compared to some of the other stores we visited. She really understood my vision and delivered. I highly recommend Krissy and A Little Something White!
Best experience!! What a wonderful shop. I was not planning on getting a dress but Kim picked the perfect gown for me! Couldn’t recommend this place more!
As a plus size bride, I was hesitant to go dress shopping and put it off for quite a bit. I was pleasantly surprised by my experience at the A Little Something White shop. My consultant Cindy was SO lovely to work with, offering lots of helpful tips, and pulling several dresses that I was able to try on with ease. Additionally, she let me walk around the shop and see what other dresses I might want to try on, something some of the other shops in CT did not allow due to their limited plus size stock. While ultimately I ended up finding a dress at another shop, I highly recommend checking out ALSW and working with Cindy if you can. She made the appointment seamless and stress free, and was extremely kind and helpful during our time together. Definitely check this shop out!
Our experience was amazing! They have everything you could possibly need! Krissy was amazing and helped us find the perfect shower dress. We love her and the salon!
Had the absolute most amazing experience here shopping with my mom. I worked with both Chrissy and Ashley, the owner, and I cannot say enough about their thorough and thoughtful assistance, positive attitudes, attention to detail and overwhelming patience! Chrissy called me prior to the appointment to hear about my personal style, wedding location and ambience and budget. From there, she was able to mention designers and styles that fit my criteria. Upon arrival to the salon, she again spent time chatting with me before walking through the racks with me and getting a better sense of my preferences. From there, the try-ons began! She was so knowledgeable about every designer and dress. Their inventory was superb and made it easy to find a perfect dress! In fact I found a few! While in between dresses, Chrissy and Ashley were so helpful in guiding me to a decision based on their expertise. After the decision making, Ashley walked us through next steps. My mom and I couldn’t stop talking about what a special experience it was. Could not recommend more highly!
The most amazing, memorable & easy experience!! I found my dress in a matter of 20 minutes! Chrissy is the best!!! She went over what I was looking for before the appointment and had the best selection for me to find the PERFECT dress and feel exactly how I wanted to feel when saying YES to the dress!!!!! Can’t recommend this place enough! So special!!!!!
A Little Something White is amazing! Nicole was my bridal stylist and helped me find my perfect wedding dress. I went into my appointment unsure of what kind of dress I wanted, so she helped me pick dresses of different styles so we could see what I liked. When we eventually narrowed down the style I liked, she had incredibly helpful suggestions for how I could adjust the look of the dress to fit exactly what I wanted (thing I would have never thought of without her). I went in not thinking I would say yes to the dress but because of the incredible dress options and help at A Little Something White I said yes at my first appointment!
Nicole was the best! This was my very first appointment and best appointment that I went to in the search for my dress. She explained the process to me and really understood what I was looking for in a dress. Nicole was very patient, understanding, friendly, and knowledgeable. She was not pushy at all and really worked within my budget, which is definitely something you want when looking for dresses! She even squeezed me in for another appointment a couple days later, knowing that I was from out of state, so I was very grateful for that flexibility. I had a great time there with my mom and bridesmaids and highly recommend ALSW!
I had a great trial here! I worked with Kim. She was lovely and informative. There are so many beautiful dresses to choose from!
I visited the store when looking for a wedding dress. Nicole was absolutely amazing and so friendly she understood my vision and I tried on some beautiful dresses that I loved. Although I found the dress in another shop, I will absolutely be going to ALSW to find a dress for my reception.
Nicole was amazing, she was patient, knowledgeable and never made me feel pressured to make a decision. She let me guide what I was looking for and helped me find dresses that matched what I had envisioned. She was wonderful!
The team at this shop was great in helping me find my perfect wedding dress. Kim was an amazing help and she was not pushy at all in terms of trying to get me to buy the dress. I truly felt like she wanted me to have a good experience and find the one I loved. The second I picked my dress I did not second guess it once.
I absolutely loved “A Little Something White” boutique. Ashley (the owner) and Kim (the bridal stylist) made me feel so special and welcomed. They take their time to work with you on exactly how you envision yourself on your big day. There’s a large variety of beautiful dresses and jewelry to try on. Thank you so much ladies for making this day a special one 🤍
Had such an amazing experience at A Little Something White. I worked with Krissy and she made me feel comfortable, relaxed, and excited when I initially went in with nerves. She was so professional and knew so much helpful information, I really can't praise them enough - the dress selection was beautiful. Thank you!!
Beautiful bridal salon with a wide variety of dresses and prices. My bridal consultant was excellent and provided dress options that exactly fit my vision and style. She helped take lots of photos and was supportive without being sales-y or pushy. 100% recommend!
A Little Something White was the best spot for dress shopping! They made the process a lot of fun and very seamless. I found my perfect gown there and then the tailoring they did for my dress was impeccable. I highly highly recommend going there to look for your dream dress!
Krissy was amazing in helping me find a dress! She was so calm, patient and supportive throughout the process! We so appreciated her flexibilty when we came back last minute to try on the top 2 again before making a decision. She made me feel so comfortable and confident in my dress decision. The store is neat and organized and everyone is so polite and helpful. Whether or not you find your dress there, would reccomend going just for the good experience!
I bought my dress yesterday from little something white! I was SUPER fortunate to get an appointment for the Suzanne Neville trunk show. The women at the front desk were warm and responsive in helping me book an appointment, they even were able to move the time to allow my sister to fly in on time to watch me try on gowns.
I worked with Krissy, who perfectly understood what I was looking for from a few e-mails and a short dressing room conversation. She pulled about ten gowns, all of which were dead on in terms of what I was looking for.
She helped me advocate for what I liked the best in front of my mom and sister, which can sometimes be a tricky dynamic! But wanted to make sure that I walked away with something I truly loved! I feel really privileged to have gotten to work with her and would highly recommend the shopping experience as a whole!
Great experience!
After some post-Covid weight gain, I was really nervous about the process of trying on wedding dresses. My first appointment was with ALSW, and Cindy could not have been a nicer or more helpful consultant, she made me feel beautiful with every dress she selected! She was so kind and helpful, and pulled some absolutely perfect dresses for me to try on. I didn't look at the size I was trying on once! I also did not feel rushed at all during my appointment, and was able to try on a variety of dresses. ALSW has a truly beautiful collection of gowns at a range of prices. They also have gorgeous accessories and veils- although I didn't end up purchasing my gown here, I did come back to buy my veil here! Cannot recommend ALSW highly enough, especially Cindy!
The best experience shopping for the dress! Thanks to Krissy for her help and the rest of the team at ALSW.
Had a wonderful experience! Cindy was lovely to work with. She was able to pinpoint what I wanted and find the right dress for me. They were also able to help me get my dream dress on a tighter timeline than usual
My visit with my daughter was perfect. We had one on one private shopping with Cindy who was extremely knowledgeable and patient. The forms were beautiful with a lot of variety. A prefect experience !
I had tried on at least 50 dresses prior to coming in for my bridal appointment at A Little Something White. I was torn between different styles and struggling to figure out what I wanted. My stylist, Krissy, really listened to me and directed me to options in my price range. She was professional, made the appointment fun, and spent a lot of time with me and my family. It was a great experience!
This review is long overdue. I got married on 10/29/22 and purchased my dress from A Little Something White. My dress was stunning and I felt like an absolute queen. My entire experience working with this boutique was amazing and positive from start to finish, including alterations with Bridget. She did a wonderful job with my dress -- it fit perfectly! Also, Liz is a phenomenal and talented person (and friend) who helped me each step of the way and guided me to my perfect dress. She also helped talk me through things when I was being indecisive or unsure and validated that I was making the right choice. I also borrowed/rented one of their vintage fur shawls which was a gorgeous addition to my dress! I recommend this boutique 10/10!
I have nothing but AMAZING things to say. I had the most wonderful experience with Krissy, she listened to my wants, but also explored other options to ensure I found exactly what I wanted. In the end, I found THE most incredible dress, I am beyond thrilled! I would recommend ALSW to any bride looking for an unforgettable shopping experience!
I had an amazing experience at A Little Something White! After visiting 5+ bridal stores I was starting to lose hope, but the staff at ALSW went above and beyond to help me find the perfect dress. Everyone is SO nice and warm and I felt so comfortable and spoiled every time I visited. Jamie did my alterations and she was so understanding and accommodating to my many requests and concerns. I looked forward to seeing her at each fitting! Thank you!!
There are not enough good things to say about this bridal shop! Everyone who works there is so friendly and accommodating. The store itself is beautiful. They have a great selection of dresses that can really fit a majority of budgets. They offer in-house tailoring as well as cleaning and preservation. You can also purchase jewelry, veils, other accessories, guest/mother/grandmother dresses, flower girl dresses, and suits! I can’t recommend them enough.
The entire experience at A Little Something White is bar-none to other bridal boutiques. The team is so thoughtful, so flexible and completely customizes your experience. I loved working with Cindy. They also have access to incredible designer Trunk Shows and I was able to Say Yes to the Dress with the designer standing right there! I loved this whole experience and cannot recommend ALSW enough!!
The team at ALSW was awesome to work with and their dresses are beautiful. Abby was so exceptionally helpful and knowledgeable. She was so wonderful to work with!
I had the most wonderful experience shopping for my dress at A Little Something White! They went above and beyond my expectations to not only make the day special, but find the dress that I love and feel most confident in. Nicole was my stylist, and gave me a call a few days before my appointment to go over what I was looking for and who would be joining me. They were very accommodating, as I did have quite a few loved ones join me for the experience. Nicole was fabulous at managing all of my guests, and prioritizing my opinions and style. I would absolutely recommend them to any future brides.
I went to A Little Something White with zero expectations of finding my dress, since my wedding is not until 2024, I had plenty of time. I went with my mom to just start getting my eye in and we had such a great experience with Krissy and I found my dream dress. The entire experience felt relaxed and special and extremely luxurious. ALSW is truly a one-stop shop for me. It was my first time in a bridal boutique looking for a dress, and lucky for me I don’t have to go anywhere else. Lots of friends of mine are planning their weddings as well and visited bridal boutiques in NYC and weren’t thrilled with their experiences - but I couldn’t have been happier with mine. A few highlights - Krissy sat down with us at the beginning of the appointment and asked about my wedding, what I thought I liked in terms of dress styles and budget. We then walked through to the store picking dresses together and then helped me try each on, taking pictures of each and talking through each option. The entire experience was fun, and special and best of all, I found my dress! As we were checking out, the other women who were working in the store came over and chatted with us and it just felt like a store full of people I’d choose to be friends with. I would recommend ALSW and Krissy 10000x over to any bride looking to find the perfect dress!
Kim was amazing! We went through the dress selection together so I could see everything the shop had to offer. She made me feel so special through the entire experience. She even stayed late one night during the week so I could come back with my dad to look at the dress before officially saying yes. I would highly recommend A Little Something White for any bride
Nothing short of perfect! The shop is absolutely beautiful and I knew the second I walked in that I would find my dress. The staff is wonderful, warm, and inviting. They have a ton of different styles, fabrics, designers, etc. I had such a wonderful experience and it blew the competitors out of the water by a mile. I'm so happy with my experience at A Little Something White.
I am a bride who was not enthusiastic about the dress shopping process at all— wary of the “I said yes” signs, champagne and tears. I went to six stores around CT, was frustrated, and finally found my dress here. Cindy was no-nonsense, down to business and efficient on time, patiently helping me through two appointments plowing through dresses to ensure I felt good about my choice. She’ll tell you her opinion, too, which underscored her expertise vs. younger associates I worked with at other stores.
Another detail I’d like to share. The dress I picked was outside my initial budget. Cindy mentioned one she thought would work for my body type based on another dress I liked and thought was “close.” Only after repeatedly assuring her I would not have a meltdown if I couldn’t have it, I tried it on. I realize that was an immense luxury, but trying on a range of prices did help me gain an understanding of the market and what I was getting because I had a better grasp of the variance in quality and product. If you can remain detached (easier said than done), it can make you smarter and discern what’s important to you if you are as clueless as I was heading into it.
I went back a third time to pick out a veil with Cindy. Again, she came through. I wish I would have visited the store sooner for both my dress and veil selection. Doom scrolling online looking for veils isn’t the same as the expertise you’ll get here trying it on and seeing how it complements your dress. Driving down from Hartford was long, but worth it. They’ve even referred me to tailors closer to my area so that I don’t have to drive to Darien for fittings, which I also appreciated.
Cindy and the entire team were fantastic! I needed a dress last minute, and they provided me with great options. Everyone went above and beyond. I love my dress!
Nicole was amazing ! She helped me find my dream dress. The boutique was beautiful and clean! I would Highly recommend a little something white !
Everyone at ALSW was warm and friendly. The consultant I had, Nicole, was very informative and helpful when it came to looking at dresses to pick out and try on. She was also attentive but not too pushy when it came time to make a decision. She listened to all my concerns and guided me in the right direction when I finally said yes to the dress. I honestly couldn’t have done it without her.
I worked with Nicole and absolutely LOVED every moment of it. She really helped me come out of my shell and enjoy the experience, even from seeing the different gowns, trying them on, and accessorizing to help me begin to see my full look. I did not feel rushed at all and ended up saying yes to my dress!
Cannot say enough good things about this store. Nicole was so wonderful and attentive to my needs - the store was bright, white, and just full of joy. Wonderful experience!
I had the most wonderful experience at ALSW. Cindy was an amazing consultant - so knowledgeable, fun and attentive. She made the process of selecting, trying on and ultimately choosing my dress completely seamless. I left the store feeling so happy. The new space is also stunning. Highly, highly recommend!
I had the best experienced at A Little Something White Bridal Couture! We went for a Suzanne Neville trunk show and I truly fell in love with the store and dresses. Kim helped us out and she made me feel so comfortable with the whole process. I was very nervous to dress shop and Kim helped ease the process and immediately picked up on the styles that I truly loved. My group as well was blown away by what an amazing experienced we all had! I am so happy I chose my dress from here and cannot wait until the big day!
Ashley and her team were SO welcoming at ALSW! As a bride, I was nervous about looking at dresses - would I find something I loved that looked amazing and was in my budget?
Ashley was so calming and ended up helping me find my DREAM wedding dress - I truly could not recommend her and her boutique enough.
The space is so immaculate and each bride has their own private space so you don't need to worry about dozens of people seeing you try on dresses. I was so blown away and lucky to have found Ashley!
Okay, where to start... Firstly I had the pleasure of working with Yvette who is just a wonderful human and an amazingly experienced individual. When I finally went to a little something white I had already gone to 6 shops and by that point I was exhausted of not finding my dress.
Yvette helped me out with a private appointment and it is totally worth it!
I had gone in with a vision of the style of dress I wanted but I trusted Yvette who literally suggested a chic timeless dress despite my request to get something with a lot of intricate detailing.
I left that appointment knowing my dress was there and then returned several weeks later with my sister and a new accessory, Crutches from my knee surgery.
Yvette not only was flexible and super helpful with my inability to stand for long periods but also made me feel like a princess while I tried on dresses with my crutches.
She was incredibly accommodating and Angelica is literally a sweet heart <3
Thank you for the amazing experience and creating a memory I will forever cherish.
ALSW’s new showroom in Darien is absolutely gorgeous, it is way more inviting and comfortable (and obviously bigger!) than the places I visited in NYC, the dressing rooms are lovely with comfortable seating right there for anyone joining your appointment. They have a huge selection and their stylists are kind and knowledgeable, they were the only salon who called me in advance to “meet” and get a sense of what I was looking for. The experience I had at ALSW was so superior than even Bergdorfs - you might think NYC is where it’s at but after going here I can tell you it’s not!
If you want to find your dream dress, you have to go here!!! I worked with Yvette and she was amazing. From the moment I walked into the store, she made me feel so special and did an amazing job making sure I found my dream dress. There was absolutely no pressure at all from her to close the sale, unlike other bridal stores I went to. They had a great selection of different styles and the prices are super reasonable. I cannot wait to go back and pick out my bridesmaid dresses there. Totally worth the 40min drive!!!
So happy with the service and my dress!
Had a great experience with ALSW and all of the staff! I bought the second dress I ever tried on, on that day, with the help of Meg! It is the only bridal shop experience I had and am so happy! The only issue was when my dress was expected to come and there were shipping issues that they didn't tell me about until I had to inquire. It ended up being totally fine and alterations were all so easy and everyone was so kind!
Amazing - I had such a great experience with A Little Something White! I was not expecting to find my dress on my first visit but I did. My stylist Nicole was so helpful, listening to me and guiding me through different styles and designers. Would highly recommend!
I found my dress at A Little Something White on the last trip of the last day of a long weekend of many, many, dresses. After putting off wedding dress shopping with the hopes that my mom could fly out to come with me, I reached the point of having to move forward anyways, and decided on power-house weekend to get it done. The staff and experience at ALSW was the best we had all weekend – I was only shown dresses in my price range and that would arrive in time for my fittings and wedding (not the case at other places), and the staff took the time to get a feel for my tastes and style, as well as indulging a bridesmaid who wanted to see me in something ‘outside my comfort zone.’ I was shown quite a few amazing dresses, but the Suzanne Neville dress I settled on was perfect. I was allowed all the time I needed to decide, trying it on a few times and comparing. Once I had decided, the measurement and customization process was very smooth, and just like that I had a dress!
They were very communicative throughout the process, and I did my fittings through them as well. Because of my stylist’s ordering recommendations, I needed really limited adjustments to the dress, and the seamstress did an amazing job. They were upfront with expected costs, timely with appointments, and follow ups, and always lovely to see in the shop. Highly recommend visiting!
I am so very excited that this is where I found my wedding dress! The customer service is astounding and I cannot wait to go back to my fittings!
A Little Something White not only has the most beautiful selection of wedding dresses, but they also made me feel so comfortable and at ease every time I was there. When I first went in to look for my dress, they really listened to what I was looking for and patiently helped me try on many different dresses until I narrowed in on the one that was perfect for me. They also did a great job with my alterations and I had so much fun going in for all of my fittings. I can't recommend ALSW highly enough!
I am SO thankful for A Little Something White's customer service and making the start of my wedding dress shopping so fun and exciting! I did end up finding a dress somewhere else, but getting to come to this shop and kick off my wedding dress journey was such a great experience. Kim Major was beyond helpful and super sweet. She picked out dresses that were exactly what I was looking for and made me feel super comfortable both in and out of the dressing room. I also loved that I got to shop around too within the store, instead of other shops that just bring you gowns in the room. I HIGHLY recommend visiting A Little Something White!
I went into their shop thinking it would be my first stop of many and I couldn't believe I would leave there with the dress of my dreams! Our consultant was very patient, knowledge, and extremely helpful during the process.
WOW. I can't say enough good things about ALSW. I truly couldn't have asked for a better experience. From start to finish the service was top notch. We weren't rushed for time and I never felt pressured to buy a dress.
Cindy was AMAZING- she really listened to what I liked/disliked and helped me find the perfect dress within my budget. The selection of gowns was incredible and they had many gowns in different price ranges.
I can't recommend ALSW enough. It's not worth going to a large bridal store in NYC. The service here was phenomenal!
I loved working with ALSW. Their consultants go above and beyond to help you find your dream dress and feel confident and beautiful. They really cater to their customers and treat everyone like family. I would recommend ALSW 100%!

Kim was friendly, knowledgeable, and down to earth. I was concerned that she might be stuck-up or impatient since I wasn't sure what I was looking for in terms of a style. But I found my dress and couldn't be happier.
The last dress shop I stopped in for a reason. I was treated so kindly and warmly from the start and was blown away with customer service from start to end in the dress experience. There should be no other place you look!
Cindy did an amazing job helping me find a wedding dress!
She understood my likes and dislikes allowing me to find my perfect dress in just an hour!
Beautiful dresses and the staff really take the time to get to know you and your vision. Highly recommend!
Even though I ended up buying my dress somewhere else I still felt compelled to write a review. I cannot say enough nice things about my experience at ALSW. I worked with Nicole and she was amazing. I brought my Mother and Grandmother with me and she made sure they felt included. We walked around the salon which is breath taking by the way and chose some dresses together. After trying those on and seeing what I truly liked and didn’t she grabbed a dress that I normally would never try. I put the dress on and my mother burst into tears. There was a change I personally wanted to make and she reached out to the designer immediately to get me a response and the designer approved it right away!!!! I was very close to saying yes to the dress Nicole found me and wish i could have gotten my dress from her I just simply went in a different direction. Remember ask for Nicole!!!
A wonderful experience at ALSW! Incredible selection of bridal gowns. Never made me feel rushed. Very helpful in offering ideas and overall fun to work with! And they shared in the fun with cheers and champagne when I found my dress.
Went to A Little Something White Bridal Couture on Thursday July 1st. It was my daughter's first time shopping for her wedding dress. Could not say enough of our experience. From start to finish top shelf professional guidance through the process. We worked with Nicole who gave us her very best the entire time. My daughter said "Yes" to the dress that very night. Do not hesitate to visit this shop for your wedding needs. Ask for Nicole. You will not be disappointed. What a pleasant memorable experience for sure. Happy Mother of the Bride to be. Maureen P.
This is the third bridal store that I visited, and definitely the one that I was more excited to see. From the time I booked my appointment, the staff made me feel welcomed and excited. They sent anticipatory emails and texts which made the day feel even more special.
The shop itself is beautiful: clean, well-curated, and well-designed for both privacy and space. I was assisted by Kim, who was thoughtful, conscientious, and a pleasure to work with. She helped me find dresses within my budget and quickly assessed my interests and most flattering styles to pull dresses that I wouldn't have originally considered. Best of all, I found a dress that I could not be happier with! I cannot wait for my return visit to try it on once more!
My experience here was nothing short of perfect! I drove with a group of my girls to go dress shopping in the NYC area. I had done extensive research on dresses I wanted ahead of time and I only had a day of driving/running around to find the one. I was on a tight budget so I hesitated to add ALSW to my list of stops, but if I hadn't come here, we wouldn't have found a dress that day. And I bought a perfect dress off the rack+discount they gave me which came in well under my budget. Other stores we went to either had low inventory (particularly of anything nice/tasteful), or had SO much inventory that you tried on millions of dirty dresses in bad condition, and found yourself sweating and searching through racks just to find something decent. The most important part of dress shopping is finding an awesome dress, and pretty much every dress I tried on at ALSW would have worked or been something I would have been happy with, just in different styles (and I tried on at least 15). Whoever is picking out their dresses really has an eye for flattering and beautiful styles. Most of these I hadn't even seen on the Knot or any of my online research. The second most important part of dress shopping is having a pleasant and happy day. The studio is bright and beautiful, the staff is kind and patient, and they were incredibly accomodating of everyone in my group. I even came back for a second visit with my mother who was very difficult and they were patient and kind with her as well, answering all her questions about my dress. This was the only studio I went to where I felt the "magic" of the wedding dress day, and the only place I found not one but many dresses that I loved (for under $2,000)!
I simply had the best experience here! The knowledge, the care and the "bedside manner" of all of the consultants was unmatched! Incredible place. Would highly recommend!
A Little Something White was the first bridal store I went to, and it's wear I found my dress! Finding a dress during Covid is intimating, however they were great with following Covid protocols and helping me feel relaxing. I've also gone dress shopping with friends in NYC, and found the experience to be very overwhelming. At A Little Something White, the team was extremely accommodating to my needs and did not push me to try on anything I didn't like. Additionally - I met the designer of my dress at the bridal salon! Thank you for making my bridal dress shopping experience relaxing and fun!!!
ALSW was the answer to all of my indecisiveness and my very long dress journey ended here in the best way! I was one of those brides who was in a dress fog, I just could not find what I was looking for.. I had searched far and wide.. I went to so many shops, ALSW being one of them.. I tried on well over 100 dresses. ALSW was the best. Something told me to go back there and I’m so glad I did.
Kim helped me find my dress and she was amazing!!! I honestly never thought I would have that confident, ‘this is my dress’ feeling. I just did not think that was in the cards for me, and it happened. Kim was so patient, so affirming, so kind, helpful and knowledgeable. I valued her opinion so much and really needed her in this process. She also made it fun again. She really listened and understood what I was looking for and nailed it. I finally said yes and just love, love, love my dress!! Thank you Kim :)
What a fantastic experience! I tried on gowns at A Little Something White last week and couldn't speak more highly of it! The staff really listened to my vision and had a wide variety of gowns within that to try on. They were friendly, helpful, and respectful of my ideas and budget. When I wasn't liking the style I originally wanted as much as anticipated, they had lots of other suggestions and ended up helping me find a few dresses I absolutely loved. There was no pressure to buy during this appointment and I plan (as they recommended) on going back in a month to re-try and make sure I still love my favorite dress. I especially appreciated this as it was my first time trying on dresses and I didn't want to rush into a purchase I later regretted. The overall atmosphere was supportive, helpful, and welcoming! I highly recommend!
A Little Something White was the dream wedding experience. I went there for my first look at wedding dresses and found “the one” that day! They made the whole experience so personal, flawless, and fun. It truly was the perfect bridal boutique!
I had the best experience at A Little Something White, even during a pandemic! Nicole was so nice and such a huge help when it came to picking out my dress! I told Nicole exactly what I was looking for and she helped me pick out dresses that fit my style. I even tried on a dress I didn’t think I would like that ended up being my dress! I am so thankful!
Very nice experience shopping with my daughter. Consultant was excellent, and the dress selection was lovely, although somewhat limited.
I found my dress here in May and have been working with the most wonderful people at ALSW ever since. My first experience in the store the day I found my dress could not be more amazing. Everyone who works there makes every experience of walking in the store a great one. The atmosphere is absolutely stunning. Over time, I’ve brought my bridesmaids in to get dresses, have gone for accessory appointments, and had my first try on when my dress came in, and ALSW never disappoints! When I’ve had questions and called the store, they are easy to get in touch with and get back to you with answers in a timely manner. I can’t wait for my fittings starting in March!
The perfect wedding dress shopping experience! This was my first time trying on dresses and it could not have been easier. I found my dress at my first visit and the staff was great. So many dresses to pick from with classic and unique styles.
I am not a fan of shopping and was really worried that this process was going to be painful. That was NOT the case. I had such a great time and the Little Something White team did an amazing job making it a great experience the entire time.
The first time I came in we quickly narrowed down what it was I was looking for. I booked a follow up visit to see if the dress I though may be a contender really was one, and luckily to my surprise my my stylist asked if I wanted to try on a few more she had in mind since last seeing me. I said yes and thank goodness, because she pulled the a dress that was just perfect for me. Shout out to Olivia for learning who I am, what I liked, and this sounds weird, but my body. She found a dress that fit me perfectly and seemed meant to be. I would have never anticipated this process being easy or fun, but it was. Thanks so much Olivia and the Little Something White team!
I want to thank Olivia Falco for making my wedding dress experience so much fun and completely worry-free. I appreciated the structured, helpful emails from A Little Something White staff upon confirming my appointment. I felt prepared and safe going in to my first bridal dress appointment ever and first time shopping for a wedding dress during COVID! Olivia listened to my preferences and made me feel so comfortable in the dressing room helping me in and out of dresses. I cannot believe I found my dress in just ONE appointment! Like I said, worry-free and so much fun. My mom and I were so thankful and excited we even went back to the store a few days later to say hi and thank you again to Olivia!
