Nikky with Savvy Bride did a stellar job coordination our wedding! We are very impressed with her attention to detail, patience, organization, and time management. Everything went so smooth and would highly recommend her to anyone planning a wedding in the future!

Great experience at Savvy! They did a great job listening to what I wanted and pulled amazing dresses, which included many size options. I was able to custom make my dress with two dresses from the same designer which was an amazing suggestion from the team. 100% recommend!

My experience from trying dresses on to getting the groomsmen suits was great. Everyone at Savvy was super accommodating but especially Nikky. She helped me when I decided the dress I picked wasn't for me and I wanted a different one that Savvy didnt even carry. She made sure I got what I wanted and I was sure about my choices and ordered the dress for me. I even got my jewelry from them and Nikky knew what would work with my dress. Ordering the groomsmen suits was an easy process even for those out of state. The suits came in Wed before the wedding and several peoples suits fit, but some pants came in a bit short. The staff at Savvy made sure the pants were replaced overnight and everyone looked perfect for the big day!

If we could give Savvy Bride more than 5 stars we would! Katie was a God send for our entire day! We ordered the men's tuxedos from here and had absolutely zero problems with these rentals! Nothing was missing when the rentals got picked up and they even handled "day or two before" alterations. They even provided extras for the gentlemen in case of emergency! We also used their day of coordination services. USE THESE SERVICES! Katie was absolutely amazing and met with us several times to go over our timeline and decorations and what we needed for the day. She took detailed notes and asked all the right questions. She took care of all the set up for the day and coordinated the arrival of the other vendors, handing out tips, the itinerary, progression of events throughout the big day, and clean up of decorations at the end of the night. This team was such an asset and made it so we could actually enjoy our big day! 12/10 would recommend!

A Savvy Bride did a great job matching the perfect dress for me. They really know their stuff! There was a little confusion depending on who you talked to for what alterations I could have done (namely, getting pockets put in), and they didn't have the correct dress saved when I came back another time, but this was quickly remedied. My only true complaint was that the boning in the dress bent and poked me quite a bit throughout the day, though I can't imagine this was Savvy Bride's fault. They truly do a great job matching you with your perfect dress.

We had Kate officiate our ceremony, for day of coordination, and take down services. Saying Kate was AMAZING is a complete understatement. I can’t count how many people absolutely raved about how sweet and helpful she was. She truly had wedding “spidey senses” and just knew when someone needed something. She was there within seconds asking what she could do to help.
Working with Kate was an absolute dream. I felt supported and comfortable trusting her to set up all wedding decorations the morning of. I was able to relax and enjoy being pampered knowing my wedding was in amazing hands. I even had my venue’s coordinator get Covid the day before and cancel, however I didn’t have an ounce of worry knowing I had Kate for the day.
She wrote a beautiful ceremony and took the time to get to know my husband and I to make it absolutely perfect. I truly can’t say enough how much I enjoyed working with her.
For future brides, I can’t say enough about how having day of coordination is worth it. I especially recommend Kate and Savvy Bride to make your wedding day dreams come true.
Thanks for everything Kate!

Nikky was so incredibly helpful in finding a dress! She listened to what I wanted and picked amazing choices for me to try on. She suggested some design changes that helped me decide to say yes to the dress. I had been other places but Nikky… her customer service was above and beyond!

Wow Savvy Bride is just great! I went there for my first time dress shopping and I said yes to the dress! Sydney was amazing - she pulled dresses that were similar to the photos I showed her of dresses I liked, and she listened to my feedback throughout the appointment. She found me the perfect dress! I would recommend Savvy Bride to any bride looking for their dream dress!!

We didn't want a traditional black, gray, or navy suit. And that was proving difficult to find. After some review, and failed attempts getting appointments at Nedrebos, we visited Savvy Bride and had great success. The staff were wonderful and very knowledgable. They helped us find the perfect forest green suit for the groom and groomsmen, along with various patterned bow ties. Incredibly happy with quality of suits and assistance with troubleshooting a size correction for our best man.

I can’t say enough about Lisa and Kate at Savvy bride! Lisa was full of energy and genuinely loves her job…and dang she’s good at it. She didn’t even have to ask what size I was and all sample dresses were easy to put on and didn’t feel self conscious. I cried on dress #4 and then ended up being able to combine 2 dresses to make my own, one of a kind gown. They were kind, patient, helpful and professional. So happy I said yes at Savvy!

I am so happy I said yes at Savvy Bride! I was nervous going into wedding dress shopping and had tried a few other shops before my appointment at Savvy. As soon as I stepped into Savvy, I felt so comfortable and excited. I worked with Nikky and she was the absolute best! She listened to my thoughts on what I was looking for in my dress and brought out an amazing selection. I loved that I could customize my Casablanca gown to add sleeves, and it turned out so beautiful - and still within the budget! Overall such a great experience and would highly recommend.

I had scheduled appointments at 3 different salons for the day and this was my first. I was super nervous and had no idea what to expect, but Sidney was so incredibly helpful and patient. I walked in thinking I wanted simple and to shop on my own, but once I put that first simple dress on, I felt nothing but disappointment that I wasn't having "my moment" the way I thought I would. Sidney helped me branch out and I discovered I love lace and sparkle so much more than I thought! Sidney did a fantastic job of simultaneously listening to my wants, but also helping me try new things and giving me the hand-holding experience I didn't know I needed.

I do not have enough good things to say about this small business one stop wedding shop owned by two amazing women. We hired Kate to do our officiating and as our day of coordinator and she was an absolute rockstar who was on top of everything. She gave my friends and family freedom from questions that vendors had. She also did a wonderful job as our officiant; she took generral ideas of what we wanted and ran with it. We also bought all of our formal attire (dresses, suits, flower girl dress and mother of the bride dress) from them Everything was beautiful and perfect. If you have the chance, go through these wonderful amazing people and support local!

This store is fantastic, I got two bridesmaid dresses from here. They work 1:1 with you and your bridesmaids when picking out dresses, and both experiences were really great. They have a vast selection of bridesmaid dresses and put 110% into helping with any issues before, during, and after your big day!
Huge shoutout to Kate, the store owner, that worked hard on helping us pick out all of our bridesmaid dresses, helping coordinate and officiating my friends' wedding, running in and saving the day with my dress malfunction, and for being so personable and approachable.

The wedding dress shopping experience was amazing. Nikky and the staff made me feel very comfortable and found me the perfect dress. The store was responsive to all emails/calls and questions I had. My husband and groomsmen also rented their suits from here. They had a flawless experience, and everything fit and arrived on time. The entire process for both of us went so smooth and stress-free. Exactly what we needed for a wedding!

I said "YES!" to the dress on June 19th!
This experience was completely magical. Seriously. I never felt akward or self conscious or, to be blunt, fat. I felt gorgeous in every dress I tried on...even the fitted dress that was admittedly too small. 😂
Every single staff member was kind, passionate and truly genuine about helping me look and feel beautiful. I ultimately found my dress and I LOVE it!
This was the first dress shop I went to and I walked out having purchased the first dress I tried on! Of course there were others, but I kept coming back to that first one.
I felt heard and I felt like my opinion and wants were taken into account but also what would honestly LOOK good on me.
Thank you Savvy Bride. I can't WAIT for my wedding and to absolutely wow my fiancé! ❤️❤️

We picked a savvy bride because they offer the option to rent and buy suits. My husband wanted to buy his suit but we didn’t want to force the others to do the same so we appreciated having the option to do either with the same suit. The first time we went in to pick out the suit pieces and get my husband measured, the young woman we worked with seemed a bit unprofessional and she wasnt being very precise with the measurements and they sounded not like my husbands typical size but since this is their job, we didn’t question them. We did go in one other time about a month before the wedding because I wanted to look at tie colors again and the woman we worked with (she’s either the owner or the manager?) was super helpful and my worries were at ease. Half the guys bought their suit and the suits came in 2 weeks before the wedding. We had all our sizing in in March which is what they asked of us and were told the suits would be in a month before the wedding… which obviously didn’t happen. My brother lives out of state and came home specifically so he could get his suit a month before the wedding but since it wasn’t on time I had to overnight his suit to him so he had time to try it on, ship it back if there were issues and get the pants hemmed. 4 of the 6 that purchased suits had sizing issues and needed something reordered or replaced. The rentals came in Wednesday afternoon before our Friday wedding and 1 of the 6 had sizing issues and new pants needed to be overnighted. My husband specifically had to go in 4 times to get his suit right and his suit didn’t arrive until THE DAY of our wedding. I do appreciate savvy bride dropping his suit and one of the groomsmens off at our venue since it took so long to get them figured out but it should’ve never gotten to that point. In the end the suits did look very nice and my husband really likes his suit but I can’t say I recommend them because of all the hassle we went through the last two weeks before our wedding day.

Being on the larger side it was hard to go to most bridal stores and have samples that fit you, but at savvy I was able to do more than just try and imagine past the clip and everything. Super helpful attendants and they offer lots of services! Very affordable and the staff makes you feel very comfortable.

The perfect dress-buying experience!! I hit a large chain dress store before coming here and it was a night and day difference. Savvy Bride was more personalized and fun from the beginning! I worked with Sydney - what a sweetheart! Where the chain dress store had me send them inspiration dresses well ahead of time and still didn’t get dresses for me to try on that I liked, Sydney within minutes of meeting me had a huge array of dresses for me - any of which I honestly could have walked out with! I finally narrowed down to 3 favorites, and then chose the one! I never felt rushed or pressured. I’m so grateful to Savvy Bride, and especially to Sydney, for making me feel beautiful in all of the dresses and for making the experience a memorable one! I highly recommend them if you are wedding dress shopping!!

My family flew in for a dress shopping weekend- there were a lot of us. Savvy Bride was the second store that we visited and everyone in my group felt so welcomed and part of the process. Nikky was our girl! She took comments from all of us and helped me to customize my dress. She helped me to know what was possible and completely stayed within budget. I am a plus-size girl and I was able to try on the sample dresses and get a good idea what I would actually look like in the dresses. I tried mostly the fitted dresses, but I could tell they had so many different dresses that would "wow" many brides. Nikky's professionalism and expertise really sold me. I am so excited to see the finished product!

Savvy Bride went above and beyond my expectations! After sitting down with me to talk about style, favorite dresses, and pricing, the very first dress we looked at was the one! Even though the place was super busy, I still felt very special and that I could have all the time in the world to make my decision. I felt that everyone at Savvy just wanted to make sure I had the best wedding day possible. An extra bonus was that the dress could be ordered to my measurements, not just a standard size!

We used Savvy Bride for a lot of various aspects for our wedding. We were able to do rent/buy suits for all the guys for a great price, and loved the quality of them. We also got my second dress for the reception and loved the quality and movement that it afforded me on the day of. We also used them for all of our paper products, which turned out amazing with great quality and personalization with them as well. We were able to also do the week of planning through Kate and could not have asked for a more positive and amazing experience. She was able to help organize all of the vendors and ensured that the day went off without a hitch. She even helped when someone spilled on my dress and took it to complete preservation and cleaning. She helped my now husband when he was having stomach issues on the day of. She was a total godsend and I couldn't be happier we used her and the company.

I bought my wedding dress from Savvy Bride and it was truly an amazing experience! They were so patient and gave so many great suggestions of dresses to try on as I was working through the decision. Then once I did say yes to the dress, they were wonderful with giving accessory recommendations, along with giving a list of recommended alterations ladies. Overall they made me feel so calm and comfortable in such a big choice and I highly advise checking them out!

I can't rave enough about this place! I walked in thinking I had found "the dress" at another shop, I am SO happy I didn't commit. We were instantly welcomed, felt so comfortable and they really listened to what I wanted in a dress. I found "the one" on dress #2! They completely nailed it! They made me feel so confident in myself and I left feeling beautiful and SO excited to put my dress back on. They had an awesome range of dresses that don't break the bank! I also loved their size inclusivity. A few other shops in the area told me they didn't know how well they could accommodate to my size 14-16 body; Saavy didn't even bat an eye. These girls love what they do and love their brides.

This was the 2nd try out shopping at a wedding dress shop and both places were extremely 2 different experiences. This place was the extreme positive. Everything was pretty much the opposite of the 1st place. Nikki, our saleslady was extremely upbeat. Never tried to rush us, was very imfortative about dresses and designs. She listens to my wants. If you are looking for a place to have a glass of champs with ur wedding party be able to take your mask off to take a sip, still practice correct Covid requirements and still enjoy ur day, this is the place to go!! Nikki was amazing. She found the dress I wanted that I didn't know how to describe. Very reasonably priced.

Loved my experience at Savvy. Just as COVID hit I was wedding dress shopping. We followed all the guidelines and had the salon to ourselves. My stylist Nikky was excited and pulled dresses based off of my email quiz I took prior to coming. She immediately said "Which ones do you not want to put on?", which was helpful cause that's easier than picking what you like from 20 dresses! I told her I loved Hayley Paige and she pulled a very similar design which I ended up customizing for my big day. As a bride I got anxious awaiting my dress (amid pandemic shipping concerns) and called Savvy 2 weeks before my dress was supposed to be in. They called back quickly and said it would be in that week; which it was. I had a blast trying everything on and the stylists even dressed a mannequin in my wedding colors to show what my groom would look like next to me. Top notch!

I found my perfect dress at Savvy bride!!! I had an smazing experience, they have a great selection, and customization with Casablanca us a huge perk!!! We also found out bridesmaud dresses too.
But there is of course a story, it didn't start at Savvy but ended happily there😍
I am embarrassed to admit I am one of those brides who bought a dress then the next day knew it wasn't the one. This first dress was bought at a different store, not Savvy. And if course, cancelling it. I was just going to go with it bc on my first experience I didn't have much of a reaction to the dresses and just thought it was me.
Well time passed and somehow I stumbled across the designer Casablanca and found out certain store's that carry them r able to customize their dresses. Mix bodice from one with bottom of other, add sleeves, different color not listed etc. A Savvy Bride is one of those stores that can do this, I was intrigued. The first appt at the other store was a bit overwhelming. so I went to Savvy alone. And at Savvy, I felt comfortable and had an amazing experience. I had been in communication with Nikky at Savvy before my visit. She pulled dresses based on my likes and alsiones I liked online. She nailed it, the two dresses I loved, she picked.
I wanted to bring my friends back to help me decide. Our return trip to decide got pushed off due to an unplanned surgery for me. Nikky was a doll keeping in communication, always patiently responding to my MANY questions.
The day finally came...I made my pick. And best of all it is being customized to be my dream dress. I am so in love with it and can't wait to c it. I could not have done it without Savvy or Nikky, very highly recommend!!

Although I did not say "yes" to the dress at Savvy, they were my favorite dress shopping experience. Lisa really listened to what I wanted, and she was sooo enthusiastic about what I tried on. She made me feel stunning in everything, but was honest about something if it wasn't my style. We had so much fun shopping here - they just didn't have the perfect dress for me.

I had a great experience at A Savvy Bride! My stylist was Nikky and I loved her! She was very friendly and good at what she does. She asked me questions about what I thought I wanted and did some initial pulls, but as I tried on the first few dresses she got a better idea of what I was liking and what I was not liking and she pulled a few more dresses that she thought I would like and would be flattering to my body shape. I ended up finding my perfect dress at a very affordable price! Also, now that I bought the dress I get access to discounts on a bunch of other items they offer. I highly recommend A Savvy Bride!

Seriously the best! I had a custom designed dress that was straight out of my dreams! My bridal party was absolutely stunning and all dressed by Savvy! The dresses were unique and the tuxes great! All of the pricing was also amazing. Seriously great prices and you don’t loose quality over that! I also hired Kate from Savvy to be our officiant and she was amazing as well! You cannot go wrong by having them help you with your big day!

I never thought I would find my perfect dress. I had been looking for months and nothing clicked. At Savvy, Dacia found the perfect dress for me and it was in my price range. I never thought it would be the dress I chose, but it ended up being beyond perfect and I can't thank her enough for helping me find it. Her customer service was phenomenal and she made my dress shopping experience there a breeze. I highly recommend going to Savvy Bridal. We will be going back for the rest of our bridesmaid dresses, suits, and anything else we may need. Thank you, Dacia, and the rest of Savvy Bridal staff, for all your amazing help!

Well I had a similar experience as someone else who wrote an awful review on this place. I would NEVER recommend this place to ANYONE. I also am not the type up reviews either, but this experience was god awful.
I received my bridesmaids dress from here because the bride got her dress from there.... Well they took all of our measurements. Turns out they screwed up every bridesmaids dress. I received my dress, once i tried it on, it was HUGE in the bust (which is shocking since i have a huge bust myself), and the length was too long (i expected that much). I took my dress to the seamstress that my family uses.
Once she had me try on the dress, she told me this will be an extremely difficult alteration due to the lace on this dress in the bust area. They had to tighten my shoulders as well as the bust. Well because of these complicated alterations due to the lace, my originally $215 dress is turning into nearly $400!!!
I was the last bridesmaid to reach out to the bride because I was the last one to get my dress. Well the bride reached out to Savvy, and Savvy reached out to me and told me it was normal to have these alterations.
First of all, when we were there trying on dresses they said alterations would not be too expensive.
Another bridesmaids dress was a size 14 and had to get brought down to a size 8!!!! One, weight loss was not the factor as to why this dress was so large. It was because they sent in wrong measurements.
Another bridesmaids dress wasn't even completed!!!!! They didn't even sew a whole side of the dress.
Savvy told us all to order dresses that were way too big which is now causing ALL of us to have close to $200 dollars of work done which SHOULD HAVE not been the case.
Another bridesmaid had to get her dress fixed, and her seamstress told her "we can fix it, it just doesn't fit you".
Because of all of this now the bride is stressed because the dresses might not even look good on the day of the wedding.
I personally got told by my seamstress that the lace on my dress still won't look perfect.
I WILL REPEAT, DO NOT GIVE THIS PLACE YOUR BUSINESS. Probably would've had better luck at David's Bridal...
Wish I never supported this business.

I purchased my bridal gown from Savvy, and also we went through them to get groom and groomsmen/usher attire. I had such a wonderful experience with my bridal gown search. The consultant pulled exactly what I was looking for and helped me pick the perfect gown. They stored my gown in the store before I had to take it for alterations and let me come in multiple times to try it on.
Unfortunately, my wonderfully experience stopped with my bridal gown. Working with them for suits was horrible. We were charged too much for the grooms suit over the phone and had to call back to get refunded for the difference, the color of the suits was not what I wanted nor what I was told they’d be (comparing to a suit in the store), the grooms suit was ordered in a long so it fit funny and added to alteration costs, but it was too late to make any changes, ushers wanted to rent but were told they couldn’t because the bride didn’t want that, which was not right and not what was/should’ve been noted in our file, and so on. There seemed to be a lot of miscommunication between their staff members. Ordering suits through Savvy was a hassle and added a lot of stress when it shouldn’t have, not only for myself, but our bridal party as well. I would not recommend.

This place is amazing! Their whole staff is so kind and accommodating, our whole group had a blast while I was trying to find a dress. They even opened up a bit early for me one day so that I could come in before work to see the dress one more time before ordering.

Today was my fourth appointment at Savvy bride they are absolutely amazing me and Nikki will be friends for life LOL. My first appointment was so awesome I found so many beautiful dresses then after going to a few other bridal stores I had to come back and try on a specific dress and they made me feel right at home and I said Yes to the Dress at this appointment my third appointment was for my fiance he actually came in and we need it three very specific suits for cosplay ideas for Beauty and the Beast and Aladdin and they nailed every single suit perfectly he is so excited and we are purchasing them today. And now today I just had my Bridal party appointment by bringing both my mom's and all of my maid of honor and bridesmaids everybody got to pick a different dress it was such a beautiful experience Nikki somehow handled my circus of a family perfectly LOL I would recommend this Bridal Shop to everyone I would really really really like to advise people not to waste your time going anywhere else Savvy bride is the place to be

Just trying to save other brides from the headache I’ve been dealing with. Ordered my dress with “custom measurements” and the only correct measurement was the waist. Even the length was 2 inches too short. This cost hundreds of dollars to fix and it still does not look it should. Also ordered suits and a mother of the bride dress before realizing how screwed up my dress was and had issues with these measurements. Stay away brides.

A Savvy Bride was amazing. I did my bridal gown and bridesmaid dresses here. The staff were helpful, honest, and helped me stay on budget. They also helped coordinate with all my bridesmaids in getting their dresses/sizes ordered. With my wedding dress, they really went above and beyond to make sure I got exactly the custom dress that I wanted. No other bridal salon that I have been to offered that service.

Savvy Bride was a huge part of my wedding! I got my veil, petticoat, bridesmaid dresses, mother of the bride dress, and suits there!
Kate, the owner, helped me every step of the way! She even was kind enough to store my dress, which I bought a few hours away from home, at her salon so my fiancé would never even see the bag!
Savvy Bride was able to get more lace for my dress and to my seamstress just 2 days before I left for my wedding! The salon I bought the dress at wasn’t even able to do this! Savvy didn’t even carry the brand that my dress came from!
My bridesmaid dresses and suits were also at least $20 less than the competitors prices! AND my ring bearers parents could buy his suit for half the price than it would have cost them to rent it!
They also got different parts of suits from the suit vendor just days before the wedding when things didn’t quite fit right. In the end all the men looked great!! No ill fitting suits for them!
Kate always had an open ear and helped me to achieve many visions I had for my wedding! The poor girls even had to witness a bridal meltdown by me in the store! I felt like the whole team was personally vested in the success of my wedding! I’m very pleased!

My mom and I detoured and walked into the Savvy Bride a couple of months ago. Even though we didn’t purchase a dress (my wedding date was still over a year out) they welcomed us without an appointment. It was an amazing experience and I have yet to find a dress the rivaled the one I tried on there! ❤️❤️

I'm so glad I got my dress from Savvy Bride! Kate and her team were so easy to work with and really made me feel special throughout our time together.
The salon is super cute and they have a really great selection of beautiful dresses under $1,000.
I was a little nervous about taking ten ladies to try on dresses, but the private appointment was perfect! I'd definitely recommend setting up the private appointment - everyone had a nice time sipping champagne and having treats while I tried on dresses.
We decided to customize the dress - change the color, add straps and buttons etc. and Kate was quick with the drawing and kept me in the loop around timing. After months of waiting for the dress, it was perfect! Thank you Savvy Bride for a great experience!

I enjoyed working with the girls at Savvy Bride. Kate was very responsive to emails when I had questions on when my gown would be in and following-up on appointments. I purchased my gown and two veils through them. My veils were attached and I had asked for them to be velcroed so we could un-attach the extra long cathedral veil. They came sewn together, but Kate fixed it for me as soon as I brought it up. We had fun and I tried on dresses even after I thought I had found "the one" and wanted to be sure. No one pushed me to purchase and I did not feel rushed at all during my appointment!

We rented our suits through A Savvy Bride and loved our experience. Lisa (one of the owners) is very knowledgeable and patient. She has so much energy and always has a smile on her face. They offered a great selection and the pricing was FAR less than any other place without losing out on quality or experience.

I ordered my bridesmaid dresses,my mom's dress, and my veil at Savvy Bride. Our experience was nothing but amazing! The women in the store are extremely helpful and willing to go above and beyond to make sure you find exactly what you are looking for. My maid of honor suggested the shop based on her sister-in-law's experience, and I definitely pass on the recommendation from my experience!

I'm so glad I chose Savvy Bride for all my bridal needs. I was able to do a custom neckline on my dress and the team at Savvy was so willing to work with my custom requests. It was also nice getting a discount on invites, bridesmaid dresses, my jewelry, and my groom's tux. They have a great team and a welcoming atmosphere. I always left feeling great about my upcoming wedding!

The staff at Savvy Bride were so helpful and welcoming from the minute I walked in the door! I had been to many other bridal salons before that day and found Holly and Lisa to be so kind and genuine while helping me find my dress. I ended up customizing my gown through one of their designers and when it didn't come back looking as I'd hoped, Kate did everything in her power to make sure I had the dress of my dreams! When it came back the second time it looked amazing and I absolutely love it! I also got a beautiful veil with Savvy too!

I was there last weekend and was lucky to have Nancy who was incredible. she respected my budget and helped me find the perfect gown. I liked this store a lot because they had beautiful gowns t great prices, there were several above my budget also, but they had a good selection that were also more affordable which was really important for me. I felt special and I will be going back for my bridesmaids and tuxes too.

my fiancé and I have gotten our invitations and purchased suits for our groomsmen there and everything has been great. they were able to get us nice suits for our guys at a good price and our invitations were so easy to find and order. my fiancé also got her dress from them and said her experience was good for that too. we will recommend them to our friends.
