Antonio's Bridal

Vida was very nice and attentive and there is a nice selection of gowns. The deal breaker for me was how protective the owner is of the dress and designer information. You are not allowed to take pictures of you in any dress. I shopped at five stores and this was the only shop that did not allow photographs. It's unfortunate too because I did find one dress that I really liked there but I ruled it out simply because I couldn't go back and look at it on my phone like I could with the other dress favorites I tried on at other stores. It helps to see yourself in the dress in a photograph and to compare it to the others you try on. I understand that the store may not want you to compare but that's what I did anyways only I didn't have the Antonio's dress in my phone to include in the list of dresses I was comparing. This was also the only store that would not disclose designer information. When I asked who the designer was on one dress, she said that they put their own labels in the dress but once I bought a dress, they could sew in the designer label. I've never heard of not being able to know what designer I'm purchasing until after ordering the dress. If these two things would not bother you and if you have a nicer budget to play with then this little shop is worth checking out.

Horrible. I trusted this place to be my first dress experience and I couldn’t be more unhappy. The owner won’t let you take any pictures at all. She only has one dress of each style in one size!! I’m about a size 12/14 and not one dress could even zip up. She kept telling me “we are house of custom you have to imagine the dress”. No thanks! How do I make a major purchase by “imagining” how it could look? I found her to be rude and I was rushed. She was going to cut my appointment short, because she claimed “I don’t have any other dresses in your vision”. I don’t know what I want yet, that’s why I’m shopping! I’m irate, disappointed, and soul crushed by this salon. Steer Clear.

I loved my dress and they did a wonderful job, but the experience working with them was less than pleasant. They nickel and dime you every step of the way and were at times rude, clearly only trying to make a commission or a sale. I asked to try on my dress at pickup and they said that would be fine, and when I went to pick it up they told me no. Very rude. All that to say, they did do a wonderful job on my dress, I just wish the attitude of the staff were better.

I found my dream dress amongst a room full of gorgeous dresses. Vida is so adorable and sweet, she really knows her stuff and she helped make my day spectacular.

I had such an amazing experience Antonio’s Bridal! Vida took time and care to listening to what I was looking for in a wedding dress and ended up finding me the perfect, most beautiful dress!!! I brought my mother, mother in law and maid of honor with, and even they talk about what a wonderful experience they had! I would definitely recommend any future brides to go to Antonio’s Bridal for their dress because they took such wonderful care of me from start to finish!

I had a wonderful experience with Vida and Van at Antonio's Bridal. The dress turned out BEAUTIFUL and fit me absolutely perfect!! I am very happy and cannot wait to wear it 😍

I had such an amazing experience at Antonio’s Bridal with the help of Vida (the owner) and her wonderful seamstress and staff. Not only does she have a wide selection of bridal gowns but you can add or remove anything you want from each and every gown to customize it into your own specific needs. Every dress fitting was booked professionally and each appointment was done privately. Antonio’s Bridal also had a wide selection of bridal accessories to go along with each and every dress. Vida and her staff took such great care of me and everyone was extremely polite and professional. They took their time to go over how to bustle up the dress and even recorded it incase I needed to remind/ show my bridesmaids the day of my wedding. I would highly recommend Antonio’s Bridal to each and every bride. Don’t let the location scare you (Birmingham, MI), their prices are very reasonable.

I have nothing but positive things to say about my experience here. Vida and her staff give you the most exquisite bridal service. Their collection is absolutely beautiful and they will make any adjustment that you desire. They pay attention to every detail and give you the ultimate customer service. Vida has a very refined style and seemed to understand exactly what I was looking for and helped me piece together everything down to the last details. I absolutely loved my dress and the experience caused me zero stress. I couldn’t have asked for more. Thank you!

I absolutely LOVED my wedding dress, and I have Antonio's Bridal to thank for that. Vida suggested taking two dresses and making them into one very special dress. She worked with both the designers and made my perfect dress a reality - and I have never gotten so many compliments. The whole process was a dream, from the first fitting to the last (and my dress fit like a glove), everything was perfect. This place really is a hidden gem that every bride should know about.

As mother of the bride I cannot say enough about Vida, her staff and her wonderful salon. My daughters wedding was Sept 8, 2018 and Vida knew right from the first appointment what my daughters vision was. She suggested a custom gown.. bodice from one designer and bottom from another. When the dress came in we were blown away on how gorgeous it was. Only a few alterations required, and the dress fit like a glove. My daughter is still getting compliments to this day. It was such a wonderful, easy experience with Vida!! Would highly recommend this wonderful salon to everyone. So very, very happy. Thanks again Vida!!

I went to four other highly recommended Metro-Detroit bridal salons until I finally came across Antionios and I am so happy that I did. This salon offers the entire experience that most brides look for; private and personal with a wide variety of wedding dress styles. My dress was very reasonably priced and absolutely looked more expensive than it was. This salon is a must visit for Metro-Detroit brides. It will not disappoint!

Antonio's has a beautiful selection of wedding dresses and they only have one appointment at a time which directs all the focus on you and makes you feel really special. However, I did have trouble with the alterations.

Vida and her staff did an amazing job on my dress. I bought it from them and had them size it. It fit me like a glove. The dress was literally perfect and I got so many compliments. I could not be happier with the whole experience of buying my dress. They made it so easy and stress free. Please go see them before you buy from anywhere else!!!!

I had a wonderful experience at Antonio's Bridal. It was only the 2nd place I visited and just loved the dresses here! Going elsewhere to get bridesmaid dresses my choice in using Antonio's Bridal was re-affirmed. As a bride, I felt like it was important to shop at a smaller place to get more personalized attention. Everyone I worked with was fabulous. The dress was amazing. I have never seen anything like it. I would recommend Antonio's Bridal to anyone!

I absolutely loved working with Vida at Antonio's Bridal! I just purchased my gown yesterday. My friends/family and I had just come from an awful appointment elsewhere and our spirits were pretty low. Vida immediately made everyone (including me) feel comfortable and important. She listened to what I wanted in a dress and found the perfect option was very figure flattering! Her attention to detail is unbeatable! I would highly recommend Antonio's bridal salon to any bride!

Vida was wonderful to work with! At my initial appointment, I had described what I liked in a variety of dresses and she had me pick out a few I would like to try. She then brought one to me and said "This is going to be your dress. We will try all of the dresses you picked out, but this will be it." Four dresses later and she was right!! She was very welcoming and I had a wonderful experience at the salon. The fittings were always efficient and I felt that my dress fit extremely well on our wedding day. HUGE thank you to Vida and her team!!

Purchasing my wedding gown from Antonio's was one of the best decisions we made while planning our wedding. I loved how I was the only client in the studio when I was first trying on dresses, and for most of my fittings. They are able to completely focus on you and your needs. Vida and her staff could not be more professional or sweet. Vida was unable to be at my second fitting because she was on vacation. She texted me that evening to ensure that everything went well, even though she was out of town! They have a great selection of dresses in a wide range of prices. I think what sets this shop apart is the ability to customize most of the dresses as they do all of their alterations and tailoring in house. Vida and her staff customized my dress so it was truly one of a kind and I received so many compliments throughout the night. I also purchased a veil, hair piece and earrings from the shop. If you are looking for a one of a kind wedding dress with service that is top notch look no further than Antonio's! Thank you Vida for making all of my wedding dress dreams come true.

I went wedding dress shopping with my daughter to two other salons, but our third (Antonio's) was definitely our last. The salon is so quaint and inviting with the most gorgeous selection of gowns. Vida allows individual appointments and gives each person her utmost attention. My daughter thought she knew the style of dress she wanted, but wasn't exactly thrilled with how they looked on her. Vida politely asked if she would be willing to try on a dress of Vida's choosing. Of course, this was THE dress! DId I mention that Vida is THE BEST?! She pointed us in the right direction for style of undergarments, veils, jewelry - creating a vision of the whole look. Her seamstress is brilliant, as well - fabulous alterations for a perfect fit. The only bummer for me is that I do not have another daughter needing a wedding gown.

I have never written a review about an establishment before, but my experience with Vida at Antoio's was so unsettling that I felt compelled to forewarn other brides so they are not met with this unkind, elitist behavior. The sign in the window reads: "Enter as strangers, leave as friends" but unfortunately that could not be further from the truth. Purchasing a wedding gown is supposed to be one of the most joyful and exciting occasions in a woman's life. Instead, I was shamed because my timeframe was limited, as was my budget. Upon revealing this information, I was then subsequently rushed through the selections and soon dismissed to another salesperson--and then to a room in the back. "Nobody puts baby in a corner!" I walked down the street to another establishment offering high-end couture (i.e., Vera Wang and Monique Lhullier), was treated with respect and care, and found the wedding dress of my dreams! Life is short, your wedding day is one of the happiest days of your life and you deserve to feel special, so please don't let a clerk in a bridal salon in Michigan make you feel anything less than spectacular.

My mom and I went to every single dress store in Metro Detroit and even a few in Chicago and I knew that I wanted a customized, extremely detailed royal princess type gown. After going to Antonio's, I knew that this was the right place with the right people to make that happen. Vida is absolutely wonderful and truly knows her stuff and Van is extraordinarily talented in custom work. I found the dress I was looking for but the dress was strapless (I wanted sleeves), and the style of the dress was long waisted I wanted a dress where the skirt sat right at the hip line. Vida told me they could customize the dress to the fit and style that I wanted and they truly, truly did to perfection. Vida worked with the designer to have the waistline raised and the train extended but the rest of the details like the top sheer beaded bodice/sleeves that were added was all done through working with Vida and Van. They brought it all to life and Van executed everything to perfection. They will bring your vision to life with every last intricate detail to fit your exact taste and dream vision. Talk about a custom "dream" dress shop. They were not happy unless I was happy with everything and perfected everything from beginning to end. My dress was the talk of the wedding. I honestly cannot express in words how grateful I am to Antonio's who made me feel so beautiful and special on my wedding day. I would tell every bride to go here for their wedding dress, they truly care and are so dedicated to making sure you are in the dress of your dreams whether you want anything custom added or not. Their quality of dresses and exceptional custom work is incredible. They created the dress of my dreams and I would never have had the dress I truly wanted if I had gone anywhere else.

I went to Antonio's Bridal looking for a second dress for my wedding reception. I had been to several shops before and liked a lot of dresses. However, when I found my dress at Antonio's, I knew I had to have it. I loved my dress so much that I forgot about the first one! They truly have a stunning collection of gowns that are made to "wow!" all of your guests. Vida was also very helpful, allowing me to make some adjustment and personalize the gown so it felt like a one of a kind dress. I had to rush delivery the dress and the seamstress at Antonio's was beyond helpful in getting all of my 3 fittings in despite our short 3 week time period before leaving for my destination wedding. To make things even more difficult I was traveling from out of state for the fittings!. They were so flexible. The dress fit like a glove. I can't recommend this place enough. Thank you, Antonio's!

I cannot say enough good things about Antonio's Bridal. I had looked for my wedding dress in several dress shops in NYC where I live/got married and each time was disappointed in the results. I visited Vida's shop with my mother and sister on Christmas Eve while home for the holidays. I was immediately struck by how warm, intuitive and comprehensive Vida was. She listened to my concerns about other dresses and my likes/dislikes and showed me several dresses in line with my preferences. Then she pulled out a completely different dress than what I had described and asked me to humor her by trying it on-- lo and behold, the dress I never thought to ask for was the perfect dress. In the subsequent fittings, her incredible team (especially Van!) helped fit the bodice of the dress perfectly and help refit the lace so it laid perfectly. I could not have been happier with my dress or the experience. I highly, highly recommend them. -Megan A

Vida and her team are amazing. I couldn't have asked for a better wedding vendor. They treated me, my family and my bridesmaids like family even when we were there in a huge group. I really wanted a unique dress for my wedding...something that I wouldn't see at any other wedding prior to or after my own. Vida was able to customize my beautiful Jane White gown to meet my own vintage tastes. The end product is an heirloom dress that will be passed down to future generations. Thank you Vida and team for all of your hardwork on my dress. Not only was I wowed by your hardwork but so was my entire bridal party. I can't thank you enough for making my day so special

I cannot rave about this bridal shop enough!!! My bridal gown was perfection!!! Vita was so accommodating and was very helpful in showing me the things that she could do to make my dress perfect for me (which was pretty much anything if given enough time). These ladies are so talented! This bridal shop is like a hidden gem! Vita made my dress with a custom lace bodice that they designed themselves and added a beautiful tulle skirt! I felt and looked like a princess on my wedding day!! My cathedral veil with the matching lace that we added was everything! Added so much to pictures and made the whole gown look even more elegant! Vita knows what she is doing and will work with you! They strive to make their brides happy! Make an appointment today! You will not be disappointed!

I can't say enough great things about this bridal salon. This was the third salon I went to. I am very petite (5') and this was the first place that could really help me to imagine what the dress would look like on my body by using pins instead of one large clamp. Every time I went there, we were the only ones there which really helped with the whole customer service experience. Vida has tons of beautiful accessories which I ended up purchasing as well (belt, headband, earrings, and matching veil). The tailoring of the dress and bustle were perfect as well. I felt amazing in my dress all day long. Thank you, Vida!

As the mother of the bride, I was very pleased with Antionio's salon. Vida worked within our price range and was eager to find just the right dress for my daughter's taste and figure. The alterations were phenomenal and Vida fitted my daughter for a bustier that enhanced the fit of the dress and allowed her to dance the night away. She spent plenty of time helping us make up the bustle, which is not always an easy task.On a personal note, I appreciate that the store has a strict appointment-only policy. We felt comfortable that no other customer would walk in on the middle of a fitting session and that all of Vida and her seamstress's attention could be focused on the task at hand. I was very pleased with Antonios bridal salon, and highly recommend it to other brides.

Overall I had a really positive experience at Antonio's and would recommend them to anyone! They were nothing but professional, flexible, and understanding. I made a mistake that caused a delay (entirely my fault!) and they were incredibly understanding and accommodating in helping us fix it. My dress is beautiful and perfectly altered. There was a lot of intricate lace on the dress and it looked perfect after alterations! I also appreciate the solo appointments as I never felt rushed and had personal attention throughout the entire process.

Vida and her helper were a pleasure to work with - very professional, honest, and reliable. She made sure the entire process, from selection to fittings to pick up was organized and fluid. After finding my dress, she and her amazing seamstress helped make it fit me perfectly and provided me with excellent additions to help make my dress appropriate for the walk down the Church aisle in style and easily removed for the reception! My dress was everything I ever wanted and I have Vida and her team to thank! She also had a beautiful selection of accessories to compliment my dress. I would highly recommend her to any future brides! :) Thanks again! ;)

Bought my dress for June 6 wedding from Antonios and couldn't be happier! Vida and her team were wonderful and professional in every respect. They have an amazing alterations service in-house and offer an incredible level of customization on all their dresses. I live out of state and they were very flexible in working with me to schedule fittings. I tried on dresses at several stores in MI and NYC and found that Antonio's dresses and service were the highest quality around!

Wow - I feel like I went to a completely different bridal salon than all the other reviewers. To start, the owner confirmed my appointment that morning and then called me back four hours later to try to cancel with me two hours before I was supposed to be there. I convinced her to keep the appointment, but she and her assistant were awkward and unfriendly when I arrived. They also barely even acknowledged my mom or grandmother who came with me to the appointment! When we were discussing what kind of dress I was looking for, they asked me the same questions over and over which I attributed to the fact that they don't understand or speak English very well. They began pulling dresses for me to try on, including several that were over my budget even though I told them I did not want to do that. One of the few times my mom was actually acknowledged was when she made a comment that she didn't care for a particular dress and the owner snootily said, "That's FRENCH lace!", as though she was appalled someone wouldn't like it. I thought it was offensive and it was the final straw in deciding I would not be buying a dress from this salon. This was the second time I tried dresses on and I left feeling very discouraged. (The first time was at another salon and it was a great experience but I just never had that a-ha moment.) I would not recommend this store to anyone ever.

I loved Antonio's and working with Vida. I went to 3 other shops beforehand and didn't find anything I liked or that worked well with my body. Vida picked out my perfect dress for me and was patient and nice to work with. She was very helpful and kind and patient. I highly recommend going to Antonio's!!

I loved my wedding dress!! Thanks to Vida for making my gown so perfect for me and let me tell you it was beyond amazing!! I had a look in mind and couldn't find it anywhere and I walked in this shop spoke to Vida and we worked together and she made me a fabulous wedding dress!! Her pricings are great and wonderful customer service. You guys will not be disappointed, at least I wasn't!! Thank you Vida!!

Antonio's Bridal made selecting my wedding dress an absolute dream, from the first visit to the day we picked it up. The salon's setting is intimate and the selection is excellent (without being overwhelming). It was the first salon that I was visiting, and I had about 3 more appointments scheduled for later that day. It only took about 30 minutes though, and Vida had helped me to select the dress of my dreams, and none of the other appointments were necessary. The fittings went well. Most of all, my bustle that her seamstress created actually lasted the entire wedding (which I have never seen before). Overall, our service was everything that I could ask for, and more, and I am so happy we chose to work with Vida for our special day!

I had already tried on 30+ dresses before finding out about Antonio's Bridal. I originally went there to see a Justin Alexander dress. When I arrived I thought it was the most darling bridal salon and felt very comfortable and intimate. Nobody was pushy and all were very friendly and accommodating. I ended up falling in love with an Allure gown that they had just put in the window the night before. I had the most wonderful experience there and wish I could relive it all! I even bought my jewelry and head piece from there as well. Vida the owner is so sweet. I would recommend this salon to anyone!! :)

This was the 2nd place I went to look for a bridal gown. When I walked in the store I was immediately impressed by the high quality of all the gown in Vida's store. It was such a warm and friendly atmosphere I felt comfortable immediately. VIda ended up picking the dress I purchased just based on a vague description of what I thought I wanted. The service from beginning to end was top notch. Vida really knows what is important to consider/think about when purchasing a wedding gown. I've already recommended this place to all of my friends and I wanted to highly recommend this place to everyone else.

I had a very great experience getting my wedding dress from Vida. She is very professional and an expert when it comes to wedding dresses. She listened to what I wanted and really worked with me to personalize my dress so it was perfect for me. They have a variety of dresses, and a wide range of price options. If you are into lace, they have such beautiful dresses with very high quality lace for a fantastic price. They also sell beautiful veils and bridal jewelry. My dress was absolutely gorgeous, and Vida's staff did an amazing job altering it. Everything was ready on time and looked perfect. My mom and my bridesmaids also got their dresses from Antonio's Bridal, and the same goes for their dresses. All and all, everything was great! I visited some nearby wedding dress shops before coming to Vida's shop, and was shocked by poor quality of service, and the dresses were marked up for no reason. So if you are looking for high quality service and a high quality dress, I highly recommend that you visit Antonio's Bridal Shop!

This was the first store I visited and the store I ended up getting my amazing wedding gown from. I loved the experience! Vida and everyone helping me were so accommodating and helpful. They did everything to make sure my dream dress was perfect. The dress and accessory selection is wide but not overwhelming. They were also very hospitable with my friends and family who came shopping with me and during my fittings. I used my older sister's veil which has been passed from her, to my other sister, and then to me; they took care of that veil, they fixed the comb piece and prepared it just the way it was meant to be. I can't imagine any one else to provide me the service they did :)

My experience at Antonio's bridal was wonderful. I went to this shop after finding out that they sold a dress I was interested in, and they were so helpful in making it the perfect dress for me! I was so grateful for the extra care and attention that came from an independent little shop. It really made me feel special! Vida helped me to find my dress and Van fit everything perfectly!

I had a great experience with Antonio's! To start with, I had a very difficult time finding the right wedding dress for me. And then, once I had finally decided on the dress, I was nervous that once it arrived, it wouldn't fit me properly. The owner, Vida, did an amazing job settling my nerves and assuring me that once alterations were made everything would fall into place. By the time the last fitting came around, I was so in love with the dress and the way it fit my body. Vida was very helpful with making any adjustments that were needed and I have her to thank for making me feel comfortable and beautiful in my wedding dress. Thank you so much Antonio's Bridal!

I had a wonderful experience at Antonio’s Bridal. I had gone to three stores before, in Metro Detroit, I tried beautiful dresses but did not find the one. At Antonio’s Bridal I had the possibility to try as many dresses as I wanted, many times as I needed…Vida, the owner was really patient with me. I knew my dress was in that store, I’ve been hesitating between two and I finally picked one. I was still not sure! On TV, girls are like “That’s the one!” and I was not certain. Vida told me “It’s normal, it’s not sized yet…You picked the right one “. She was right. They made all the changes I needed and I looked amazing. My wedding was in Europe, family and friends were amazed with my dress. I highly recommend Antonio’s Bridal boutique, they have all kind of dresses.

I had a wonderful time at Antonio's bridal salon. I was able to come in with my mother and my groom's family and the salesladies were so helpful and they pulled me dresses that would be available to buy off the rack because my wedding was 3 months from the day. I have had a great time with my fittings and the owner Vida has been so helpful in working with my schedule and having everything ordered so it will make it in time. I would recommend Antonio's to any bride out there because she has such beautiful dresses and they go out of their way to make it all about you!

My daughter and I are very lucky to find Antonio’s Bridle shop. Vida has a very good knowledge about her job which it helped my daughter to pick her dress. My daughter visited many bridal shops and she could not make her decision until we talked with Vida. Vida was very nice and helpful; she gave very good advices to my daughter concerning her wedding dress. On the wedding day everyone was talking about the dress. Vida and her team are very caring and friendly; they were always welcome even when we did not have an appointment. I give Vida a Five Customer Service and thank her for all her help!

I couldn’t be more pleased in my decision to have my wedding dress done by Antonio’s Bridal! I searched at salons across the state looking for my perfect gown, but couldn't find it anywhere… until I met Vida and her team at Antonio’s Bridal! I typically do not write reviews online, but I had to write a sparkling review for Antonio’s Bridal to let other brides to be know what an incredible place this is! When stepping foot into Antonio’s, you walk into the most beautiful, intimate showroom of dresses and are immediately greeted by Vida and her fabulous team! They are truly invested in getting to understand your vision for the day and matching you with the perfect gown. Their collection of wedding dresses is truly exquisite and chosen with impeccable taste and style- it is an absolute MUST see! Vida’s years of experience and professionalism are sewn into every detail of the store. What sets Antonio’s apart from other bridal salons are the personal attention given to each bride and consultation, the most beautiful collection gowns and stylists who know how best to flatter your figure, and the innovation in creating your perfect dress with expertise in alterations (fabric, fit, details). My experience having a custom gown made by Antonio’s has been a once in a lifetime experience! After trying on some of the showroom dresses and talking to the team about my vision for the day, Vida hand sketched a drawing of my custom gown. She accommodated every detail that was important to me- color, fabric, detail, and fit. When I tried it on for the first time, it was exactly as she drew it, except more perfect and beautiful than I ever could have imagined! My dress was designed, handmade, fitted, and altered with unbelievable talent. It was worth every penny! Each dress fitting, I had the entire showroom to myself which created a very private environment where beautiful memories were made (especially for my mom and grandma). At Antonio’s, you will not find huge crowds or entourages of bridal parties, allowing you a peaceful, perfect place to find your perfect dress (very important to schedule your private appointment). I cannot speak more highly of Vida and her team- their attention to detail, professionalism, service, and skill is truly unmatched in our area. I will forever cherish my wedding dress and my experience at Antonio’s Bridal. A huge THANK YOU to Vida and her team for their incredible work and making my dream dress a reality! Brides to be could only be as fortunate as to be Antonio’s brides :)

This is a small shop in downtown Birmingham and I was hesitant to go because I thought it may be out of my budget. But when I walked in I was greeted with a huge smile, congratulations and enthusiasm! I mentioned my budget and she was able to grab a handful of dresses for me! I was very excited because this was a beautiful and intimate boutique, it made me feel special, the way I wanted to feel while looking for my wedding gown. I had already been to several other stores and this was by far the store that made me feel the most welcomed. I tried on a few different styles and I found my dress!!! Everytime I went back for fittings they scheduled time for just me and my family/friends to be in the shop. They always remembered my name and gave me their full attention. They are so kind, answered all my questioned and returned all my calls right away! The seamstress is just amazing! I knew my dress was in the best hands when being altered. Needless to say, my dress and veil turned out gorgeous and perfect! I can't thank Vida and Van enough for taking care of me and giving me the kind of special bridal experience I hoped for!

I had just gotten engaged when I happened to walk past Antonio's bridal shop and a gorgeous dress caught my eye. I figured I would walk in and if they were busy, I would make an appointment for a latter date. The door was locked when I tried to open it and I had to ring a doorbell. Ok, not a problem. When I rang the doorbell, one of the sales personnel cracked open the door and stood in the entryway to prevent me from coming in. She poked her head out and said she was already working with a client whom had an appointment. I asked her if I could step inside just to make appointment and she said no! She didn't even offer me a business card. Her attitude was like "Get out of here, I'm busy and I don't think you can afford it" I think she judged me based on my appearance because I was coming in from work and I wasn't dressed up. You shouldn't judge a book by its cover; I have a healthy wedding budget and I would not spend a dime in that store.

I was extremely happy with this boutique up until my wedding day. Although there were red flags, for the most part I was happy they worked with my budget and had beautiful gowns to chose from. The workers seemed knowledgable, which let me put my trust in them. Every fitting I had they kept stressing while I wore it by saying "don't touch the dress, it is very fragile material!" and "don't sit down in the dress, you don't want to ruin it" and I started to think "Gee, how is this dress going to last all day for my wedding?". Being I have never planned a wedding before I just figured all wedding dresses must be super fragile. But looking back I would have questioned that more. Also, every time I had a fitting (3 all together) there were lots of strings and threads hanging and appliques coming off, and they said it was part of the process and the day I picked it up, it will be perfect and pressed and nothing hanging. Then every fitting there seemed to be an new issue with my under garments. It was making a "wonky" mark on the stomach area. First, they said the bustier had too strong of boning, so they said next time I come in they would take some of it out for me. Next fitting, the seamstress said that was not possible that I need a whole new bustier. So I went out and bought a whole new one. Then, the final fitting, they said I needed "Spanx" instead of the original girdle I purchased to go over the bustier, and that was the problem. The seamstress, also, told me they sell undergarments there, which the owner previously told me they don't. The seamstress told me she believes the owner gets money from the lingerie store she sent me to. Reluctantly, I purchased those "spanx" before the wedding (I didn't want to wear such heavy bottoms for heat purposes) and just said a prayer it will work out the day of the wedding. Well, the day of the wedding, before the ceremony, when I was putting it on, we realized there were tons of threads and strings hanging every where still and appliques coming out. So my bridesmaids worked hard and quickly to help trim them all off. Then everything seemed a little big. I did not lose and weight, so I believe the constant changing of undergarments contributed to that. Then, as the night went on, I realized the dress was getting bigger and bigger as if it was stretching out. By the time I did my first dance I had to constantly pull up my dress while dancing, because it was falling down an exposing my bustier. Then, I realized the "wonky" issue was actually the dress the whole time, the boning in the dress itself was waving up and got worse through out the night. It was super embarrassing having my dress fall down constantly and a lot of our wedding pictures show my bustier. I tried safety pinning it up, but the dress was too heavy. This put such a damper on my wedding. I would recommend taking this all into consideration before purchasing your dress and not making the same mistakes as me.

I tried on dresses at many different places and was very happy to find my dress here. It was incredibly unique and beautiful. I didn't have much to spend so I only tried on a couple dresses there since most were out of my budget. They worked with me to find something I could afford, though, and offered to sell me the floor sample for cheaper if I wanted (I did not but appreciated the offer). However, when I ordered my dress they told me it would be 4-6 months which was not a problem at all. They said they would call me when it came in. Almost six months later I still hadn't heard anything so I called to ask if they knew when we could expect the dress to come in. The seamstress answered and told me she would find out and call me back. She called me back two hours later and said "oh the dress just arrived today!" Ya right...I don't believe that I just happened to call on the day it arrived. I was just so happy to get my dress, though, that I didn't think much of it at the time. When I went with my mom to pick it up and try it on, they were so rude and abrasive. They kept trying to push me into alterations that I did not need. My mom has her own seamstress shop and has been in the business for 26 years so she knew what the dress needed. They kept yelling at me for touching my own dress because "you're going to ruin it." I don't think it's good business to make the bride feel bad when she is trying on her dress. There is a nice way to tell the bride that she shouldn't touch the dress as to not ruin it and they did not do it nicely. Overall, I would not change the fact that I bought my dress from there. The quality, uniqueness, and beauty of my dress made up for the incredibly horrible service.

I loved my experience at Antonio's. Vida was so kind and helpful throughout the process. She was very flexible with scheduling fitting appointments, especially as I was traveling in from Boston for them. She was also more than welcoming to all of my family members who wanted to be a part of the dress shopping process. Finally, she was more than respectful of my family and the unique emotional time we were experiencing then.

I was absolutely in love with the dress I got from Antonio's (Casablanca by Enzoani Blue). However, one thing I found a little strange was that they take all of the labels out of the dresses so you don't know what designer or dress you're trying on until after you buy it. Not sure if this is a standard practice. The saleswoman saw that I was wavering a bit on purchasing because it was my first day dress shopping and my first time in the shop. That's when she offered $300 off on the dress if I bought it on that first trip. While that wasn't the tipping point, I did end up buying the dress then so the $300 off was appreciated.

I greatly enjoyed my experience at Antonio's. it was clear that the staff were experts in their field, not just salespeople. I never felt pressured, butI did feel Ike whatever I wanted could be mine. The alterations were quick and my dress fit perfectly. It is, however, a bit pricey, but you get what you pay for.

I loved my dress and the fittings were great. The alterations were a little over priced, but I was pleased with the results.

I had the most amazing experience at Antonio's Bridal. The owner, Vida, went above and beyond to help me find the dress of my dreams. The staff were super professional and friendly. The work they did on my dress was amazing. I was so happy!

Vida and her team know wedding dresses! The selection was gorgeous and they make you feel very comfortable from the beginning. The interior of the store is intimate, very much a boutique, and feels like your own private bridal experience compared to some of the larger stores who book multiple appointments at the same time. Beautiful store, perfect music in the background...my Say Yes moment truly felt like something out of a movie! After describing the style I was most interested in, Vida pulled an Enzoani that, on the rack, I wasn't sure would be the fit I was looking for...I was wrong! Vida has a great eye and, after trying it on, everyone agreed it was THE dress!! Their alterations were phenomenal and the dress fit perfectly the day of the wedding. Unlike multiple friends of mine who purchased their dresses elsewhere and whose bustles required safety pins the day of their wedding, my dress bustled beautifully and stayed that way through hours of dancing. Not only did I find an exquisite dress at Antonio's, the entire process from first fitting to my wedding day was smooth and worry-free...with wonderful results!

After going to 3 or 4 bridal salons I was worried that the wedding dress experience you see on TV is all made up, until I walked into Antonio's Bridal. The shop is small and personal and the attention you receive from the staff (Vita is amazing!!!) is the best I have ever seen. From trying on the dresses, to styling, to the fittings we had the best experience. Even my sister said that when its her time to get married the only bridal shop she will be going to is Antonio's. I found my perfect dress and had the best time doing it at this salon!

Cute little shop in Birmingham that ranged from really high end to budget friendly dresses. A very personalized experience

I was so pleased with my experience at Antonio's. they have a very unique, yet stylish collection of bridal gowns to choose from. Not only that, but their alterations are phenomenal! I have a very unusual body shape, and I was worried about getting my dress altered to fit me, but Antonio's did a flawless job!

I was so impressed with Antonio's Bridal and the owner Vida since the moment that I walked into her store. I initially did not have an appointment, and I called just before coming and she welcomed me with open arms. When I got there, I worked with the owner directly which was so refreshing. I brought her a picture, and she was immediately able to find the actual dress that I had a picture of. It was easy and stress-free which was so important. This was unlike some of the other wedding dress vendors that I had gone to prior to her beautiful store. She also was very good with my budget, and she even switched one of the belts for another belt without too much more additional cost to me (it was within the same designer). My dress came in approximately 5 months after I ordered it, and about 6 months prior to the wedding. She kept it in the store until I was ready for my first fitting which was about 3 months prior to the wedding. All of my fittings were a great experience. She did a tremendous job. She is an excellent seamstress and she even designs her own wedding dresses. I was quite impressed with all of her work. My mom even had her dress altered there (even though she bought it at another store) and my mom was very impressed with the alterations as well. I ended up buying my veil, tiara, and necklace from the store. A week before the wedding, I tried on the necklace that I was going to wear (a gorgeous Swarovski necklace), and she gave me (as well as one of my bridesmaids - she thought it was too big too) her honest opinion that it was too big. I know that the jewelry usually needs to be ordered in advance, with just a week left before the wedding, she sold me a necklace (for a great price) right off the display so I didn't have to worry about the expedited shipping issues. She was very good and was always honest with me. I also received a fantastic deal on my alterations which was so nice. Alterations, done well, can be quite pricey, but it was well worth the cost - and I was impressed that it didn't cost as much as other professional seamstresses. I added a sweetheart neckline which turned out beautifully, and the other alternations turned out beautiful too - I had quite a intricately draped dress. I know it took her days to alter, but I was so happy with the end result and all of the time she put into my dress. I also loved the French bustle that she put on my dress, and it was super easy for the bridesmaids to do the day of the wedding. She does strings with numbers, and anyone can do it. There were a couple of times that I had to change the time of my appointment, and she was very flexible. I am just thrilled with the service that I received, and I would not hesitate to recommend Vida and her store to my friends that are looking for a beautiful wedding gown. She even said that I could get the ribbon on my bridal belt changed so that I could wear it with another dress. I am definitely going to have that done so that I can wear it with another formal gown. Beautiful boutique! You should definitely stop in and see what you are missing! Gorgeous selection

After I went to 4 stores to find my dress in Michigan I finally found my beautiful dress at Antonio's Bridal. I didn't find only a dress but , friends that could help me and trust with everything so I could fell happy and satisfied on my big day. I didn't have my family with me, because they leave in other country, but the people who work there made me fell they were my family and that is priceless. Thanks so Much for everything you guys did for me, so that I could walk down the isle GORGEOUS!!!!

What a great bridal salon! After I bought my dress I had to push my wedding back three months. The dress came in time for the original date but Vita was able to put the dress in storage for me until I needed to have it altered for the wedding. I never had any problems at any of my fittings and the alterations were perfectly done. I was kinda bummed when my bussel straps broke half way through my reception but it didn't ruin my night at all. Antonios has beautiful gowns at amazing prices and I would never tell anyone to look for their wedding gown anywhere else!

I was super excited to shop for a wedding dress but after 6 stores and what felt like 100 dresses, I just wasn't finding what I wanted. I knew I wanted a lace dress, but REAL lace. The beautiful kind that is hand-sewn and doesn't look cheap! So, I heard about a designer, Enzoani, that makes absolutely GORGEOUS dresses. I checked them out online and found that only ONE store in Michigan carries the brand, Antonio's Bridal in Birmingham. After seeing the 2010 and 2011 collections, I had a feeling I would find my dress here. I walked in the store with my mom and we were helped by the owner Vida. VIDA IS AMAZING! She is the sweetest woman ever and helped us out through the entire process. BIG PRAISE for Vida. I tried on a ton of dresses because I found soooooo many that I liked, not like other places where I was almost forcing myself to try on dresses. Here, I knew I would find 'the one'. I DID! I tried on my wedding dress and began to cry. That was the dress. Vida helped my family and I from start to finish. I even purchased my bridesmaid dresses from Antonio's Bridal and got an amazing deal for my girls (not to mention gorgeous dresses for them). Everything about Antonio's is wonderful. I had the best experience and I truly loved everything about the experience from trying on to my first fitting and then taking it home for my wedding. I would recommend this place over and over again!!!!!

What a fabuolous place. Very afforable and very loveable staff. I loved going for my dress fittings. Made me feel at home

I got my dress at a good price from this vendor. The problem was when it came in and we began talking alteration. They pushed me to do every type of alteration and buy every type of undergarment they supplied. 750 dollars later, I couldn't even breath with everything on, i ended up ripping off the corset I didn't want to begin with and looking saggy boobed and wrinkly in the middle on my wedding day. Ladies, this place is just fine, but don't let them talk you into a bunch of expensive alterations you don't need. Bring a friend for a second opinion.

I love my dress but the people who work at this shop can be a little hard to work with...especially at first. As I came in more and more for my fittings I didn't care as much...but their alterations can be very expensive and even though my dress turned out perfectly...it took 4 fittings to do so. I was actually kind of worried that my dress was going to be all pins the day of the wedding. It was cut very close. The only thing I can't deny is that they have some of the most beautiful dresses in Michigan. I searched everywhere for the perfect dress...and they had it. So, even though I personally found them a little abrasive at times...I LOVE their gowns!!!

I received my dress from Antonio's Bridal in a program called Brides Across America. This program was for to be military brides (Active Duty & Fiancees). My fiancee (now husband) had served in Afghanistan which qualified me for this program. I received a free designer dress through this special program. The dress was "The One" and was gorgeous! Only problem was that the back did not zipper up... Antonio's said that they could fix it with an corset back. For my fittings I had a Antonio's put in a corset back and bustle. Each and every fitting they were very professional and on time. The owner and the staff members made me feel very appreciated for what my husband is doing for the United States of America. If you are from around the Michigan area, Antonio's Bridal is one of the best stores to get your wedding dress from. I could have not asked for a better experience from my dress shop and I would encourage any bride to be to check out Antonio's Bridal!

I loved working with Antonio's Bridal! It's a small shop, and I loved that about it. I felt like it was a personal experience, and that I was in good hands. The staff is awesome, very friendly, extremely knowledgeable, and flexible. This is the only place I ever needed to go to for my wedding dress, and I wouldn't have it any other way!

Store is kind of small, but the store manager was very helpful and help you find out what kind of dress would fit you best.

Antonio's is a small bridal shop, but they have dresses that no other shops carry. That is why I went there and I ended up finding my dress. The alterations they do are top notch. They know their stuff! I always trusted what Vida said!

Since Antonio's was the only wedding boutique in Michigan to carry Enzoani, I reached out the owner, Veda, about working with her to order a dress that I had found in Chicago. She gave the lower price and also helped me customize the dress with a beautiful accent belt that I liked from a different dress. The end result was STUNNING! She was so caring and made every visit so warm and calming that it would all work out. She is so talented with alterations and I will always know that I couldn't have put that dress together without her guidance and skills.
