Alegria's Brides

meline and did excellent alterations. I highly recommend making an appointment for this place on your dress shopping day!

added support.

in 5-6 more but I kept going back to the first one. The sales associate was so friendly, fast and efficient and didn’t make me feel pressured at all. I was an out of town bride and everything with my dress was perfect thanks to the communication and professionalism for Alegrias.

I had seen and they happened to have it. The staff were beyond helpful and truly made me feel like a princess, they alerted my dress perfectly and I can't wait for my big day. Thank you so much for your help <3 xoxo, Meilin B

d! The dress sparkled and shined and I felt THAT feeling. Since this was the first bridal boutique I went to, I decided to continue shopping. After the sixth stop, no dress compared so I made a second appointment at Allegria and the rest is history!

, I found the one. It turned out to be the very first gown I tried! I would definitely recommend them!

ounter. I simply wanted to browse and when I told him the two styles I liked, he scoffed at me. Mind you, this was day three of searching and my fourth bridal shop of the day. Not once throughout the day had a sales associate been rude to my mother and me. Communication is clearly a lost cause here. The young lady that attempted to assist me didn't understand the look and feel of the dress I wanted. I asked her to make sure the dress was 1) Not strapless 2) Not white. Long story short, I wasn't allowed to browse the store and choose what I wanted to try on. I was given 3-4 dresses and each worse than the next. An art deco dress for a mountaintop wedding, really? When I said it was a nice dress for a cocktail party the young lady's face fell flat. Later when asked why I didn't like any of them my answer was simple, everything was very, very white and each style pulled was against everything I described I wanted. Little did they know I was making a decision THAT day. After my poor experience here, I was 100x more sure that the dress I tried on at the first store of the day was the one. Would I recommend Alegria's to a friend? No. There are plenty of other shops on Miracle Mile that will make your bridal experience a pleasant one.

t and ended up finding the one (with some additions that they helped me design) as well as a veil to match! They truly made me feel like I was the focus of their attention and I highly recommend Alegria’s to everyone!!!

and the owner is very helpful as well.

making on the spot alterations) until the day I took my gown home! They also have a large selection of accessories to complete your perfect day outfit! I would highly recommend making them your go to salon.

are. At the first fitting the dress was loose around the bust, a bit tight at the waist, and loose around the hips. The seamstress came in, pinned fabric, and I went home. At the second fitting, the dress would not close! It was small by 2 inches! i clearly had not gained any weight. My mom has sewn for a living in the past and she could tell that she had taken in the dress at the wrong place. The bust was still loose. we were in shock and asked what had happened. we got no answers other than don't worry it will be fine. At the third fitting, nothing had been done, and the dress still did not fit well. I called the owner, Abraham, and told him everything that had happened, and that i was very stressed and that nothing had been resolved. All he said was don't worry you are in good hands. At the fourth fitting, nothing had been done, The seamstress came in pinned fabric and i had to point out where the fabric was bunching up and not laying flat as it should. They took the dress in the back, and brought it back a while later and all the lace was chopped up! they had let out all the sides. They sent me home, and I came back two days before my wedding. The dress did finally close, but she cut off the straps of the internal corset. The bust was still loose, but at this point we were scared of telling her it was still not good since it was two days before my wedding, and the lace had been chopped up so much that you could see where there were pieces of appliqués that were frayed. The only thing we did ask was for the corset elastic strap to be sewn back together. And it was a good thing that we did. I took my dress home. The dress never really fit well. It had no support at the bust. Fabric was bunching up in areas, the waist was loose, and the beading on man y appliqués was also lose. I was never offered a refund. I did not ask because I am not one to haggle. This was the most stressful experience ever. Things always go wrong at weddings, but to have your dress destroyed is heart breaking.

t to take any photos. She and another associate stood by, in the opening to the room to monitor my family and I offering no privacy. When I finally asked for a moment alone with my mom to privately discuss the current dress she reluctantly stepped out, however before leaving she poked her head back in to remind us NO PHOTOS. She continued to stand directly in front of my curtain to keep an open ear. I'm not sure if they realize that aside from the fact that there is nothing one-of-a-kind there, I could easily find these dresses online ! One of the sales associates was overhead saying to "keep an eye on use because we could be taking pictures." There was no privacy, no opportunity to discuss with my family. The associates were too busy standing guard for what? I'm still not sure. By far the worse shopping experience I could have ever imagined.

e that always attended me when I went. She is an extremely sweet, honest, professional person. She knows her brides, their taste, what dresses fit your body best. She is the best! I had an amazing experience!

Bridal shops to choice from and its the perfect place to find out exactly what you are looking for and how other shops compare in both quality and cost. Alegria's was the one meant for me on my very special day.

ially GiGi. She made the entire process so much fun that by the end she felt like a lifelong friend. The alteration fee includes as many alterations as needed/wanted and it was always easy to make an appointment. I never had to wait, I was always kept up-to-date, and I was always welcomed by a smiling and sincere staff. Thank you Alegria's for making me such a happy and beautiful bride! You live up to your name :)

eas and vision in mind to bring me various dresses until we found the perfect one. Alegria's prices are affordable and I loved that alterations were included in the price. I highly recommend Alegria's to all South Florida brides!

flooded with dress shops. I went to Alegria once and found two dresses that I felt were strong contenders but I wasn't ready to bite the bullet. After about two - three weeks, I went back to try the dresses again and finally make that decision. When I arrived, my salesperson informed me that one of the dresses had already been sold. I thought to myself, well that must be a sign that the dress leftover is the one. After putting it on and being clamped up, I just knew: this was the one.

ite a feat) GiGi, the assistant helping me brought in a dress. She had heard me several times before say I didn't like this dress because of this feature, or I didn't like that dress because of that cut. So, she had an idea and went with it, and I'll be forever grateful. She brought in a beautiful, just came in, Hjelm gown and made me close my eyes till I was strapped into the dress. When I opened my eyes, I started crying because GiGi had found my wedding dress! It was absolutely perfect and fit my body like it was made for me and only me. The thing is, it is a dress I would have NEVER picked out myself and yet she just knew. This shop also has a kick-ass seamstress and every assistant there is awesome. I can't remember the lady that helped me with my last fitting, but she showed me (and my mom!) how to properly lift the breasts to get perfect cleavage! Oh, and the value; since my mother paid cash for the dress and veil the owner hooked her up with a small discount which brought the total (including a cathedral length veil) to under $3,000, which was our budget. I would highly recommend Alegria's Brides on Miracle Mile for any bride, especially one who is unsure what their body type would look good in!
