I left the appointment extremely frustrated which is the absolute opposite of how a future bride should feel. Make sure to look elsewhere for your dress if you want a good experience.

One dress I loved only had one sample size on the floor. Our consultant literally found the same dress in the bag from a recent delivery for me to try on.

Overall, my experience with Bella Sposa was great. I loved the first two dresses I tried on. The quality of their dresses are incomparable to David’s or Eva’s. I decided to go with the second dress. They were able to rush the order since I was ...
getting married 5 months from the date. My only regret was that I ordered my dress one size bigger which resulted in me spending a lot of money to do alterations, not to mention the stress of getting it just right. The dress size I tried on in the store seemed to fit perfectly but the woman said that the ones you try in the store are stretched out. It was only my hips that needed to lose two inches and everything else was exact. She didn’t want me to put that pressure on myself to lose those inches, even though I planned on losing weight. I understand her recommendation but wish I would have made the decision to order my size in the end, instead of one size bigger. It was very stressful to keep pulling the dress in to fit me like I wanted. I even had to pull in the hips a few inches. I was very lucky to work with Deb on the alterations who was very kind, attentive and a pleasure to work with. She does very good work! She went above and beyond to help me get the look I wanted. I’m very grateful for her to make sure I was happy with the final product. I’m also glad I was able to find such a beautiful dress at Bella Sposa!

I wish I could give an amazing review. My heart is broken that I cannot. Finding my dress was simple. Jaime was great at that point. And I had someone else as well. After we picked out our dresses and left the shop it was a turn for the worst....
I purchased my dress there and 4 of my girls did as well. I’m going to skip to the part that really upset me before talking about my bridal dress issues. My one bridesmaid (let’s call her B1)her dress was ordered severely too small. I called months ago to let them know and she said there would be no problem fixing it. Well... when calling to make an appointment she changed her mind saying she never would have said she could adjust the dress larger... but she would take a look at it... this wasn’t something I made up in mhhy head... if it would have been an issue the first time I called I would have said something... now fast forward to their appointment... two of my girls walk in one being B1 & B2 go in with my aunt.. they take B1 who is 17 with depression and self issues... squeezes her into a dress that doesn’t fit... and has her sit telling her to breathe to stretch out the fabric... while she says she is fat... then proceeds to tell them that I told her she was a size 2!!! Never once did I say that. Why would I say that... they measured everyone else.. but figured “hey ok.. let’s make her a size 2?” Now... they have B2 sitting with pins in her dress while she helps someone else for 15 minutes... all of this is happening the day after my aunt was diagnosed with bone cancer. So now I have a depressed teenager who is apologizing to me for being fat (she weighs about 120 lbs and is no where near fat.. and even if she was........ no different) and saying she will loose weight to fit into the dress... and I have an aunt who is watching her daughter upset while just finding out about bone cancer... and another girl (the sister B2) who is watching all of this take place.... This is disgusting and complete garbage. If we wanted service like that we would have gone to davids bridal. You don’t work somewhere like this if you are going to treat people like that. The only rule I had when picking out dresses with them.. was.. YOU need to feel amazing... well right now she feels like garbage.... who tells someone to sit and breathe to stretch out fabric like a pair of jeans... it’s a formal gown not a pair of Levi’s! Maybe you should have done your job correctly? Also! My dress was “measured” wrong as well! Then when I called to approach the subject after needing 1200.00 in alterations.. she said she wishes I would have come to her first..... because she could make a dress for that much.... I’m sorry... I feel like a fat slob in this dress that is amazing right now... because it was measured wrong and I look like a stuffed sausage in my gown!! AND!!

No other dresses at the other salon even got close to what I fell in love with or saw at Bella Sposa. It was hands down so unique, comfortable, gorgeous, and gave me all the feelings! The customer service here is outstanding and I will recommend them to everyone in the Chicagoland area.

My experience with Bella Sposa Boutique overall was not pleasant. At this time, I cannot recommend this store for any lady looking to purchase a wedding gown. I found a dress I liked well enough, and the associates were fine to work with during...
the try on phase. They told me the dress ordering process and creation would take 6 months + and it sure did take that long. I ordered fabric that matched the dress because I had envisioned creating straps for the dress and filling in the see-through bodice of the dress to make it perfect with the extra fabric. I received so much miscommunication on the fabric alone, one associate telling me the fabric had not been delivered and then the next day when I called to inquire, “oh we have 2 of the 4 fabrics you ordered,” to then being told they all were in fact delivered and sitting “in the back.” Huh? I felt like the staff had no intention of being helpful. They had already made the sale and didn’t feel the need to provide the additional support. Not how a customer should be made to feel after spending $2,500.... Next, I got the email/call that my dress had come in and I needed to go try on/pick it up. Here comes the best part. The associate I placed the dress order with apparently was so off in her measurements that the dress I received was at least two dress sizes too big. Let me repeat that - TWO SIZES TOO BIG. And there’s nothing they could be done to fix the dress at this point. My wedding was two months away. They offered their seamstress/alterations services and gave me an estimate on cost which seamed outrageous at the time. Little did I know that when I took the dress to my local seamstress who specializes in wedding gown alterations and pageant gowns, etc., she let me know that to “fix” this dress it would cost upwards of half of what I paid for the dress. UNREAL. During the alterations process, the tailor let me know how cheap the fabric was used in the dress, so it would be a challenge and how cheaply the buttons were sewn on, how the bust support would need to be removed and redone completely. All great news to hear, right? She thankfully was able to fix the dress, but I would not recommend buying your dress or really anything at this store.

Rita was wonderful to work with, she listened to me, worked with me and found the dress of my dreams! All of the staff is very friendly and helpful throughout the whole process, and cannot thank all of them enough! So in the customer service aspect 5 stars, for sure! My three star review comes in with regard to my alterations. Almost all of which were done very well, but the one major issue I ran into, on my wedding day, was one of the straps on my dress broke off at my ceremony. Completely snapped off (safety pins did not stand a chance for the fix, believe me we tried!). My photographer had to sew me back into the dress once the ceremony ended. I was unbelievably shocked and disappointed about this. 6 months later, I still am. I had not even worn the dress for an hour, not to mention I paid a lot of money to have these straps added and one of them broke after not even an hour. I could understand breaking a strap after hours of dancing like a maniac at the reception, but at the ceremony, consisting of walking and sitting? No. I was overall very happy with Bella Sposa, I have recommended them to family members getting married. They are a smaller boutique which, in my opinion, leads to better- more personal attention compared to larger bridal salon chains. Overall, I am very happy I purchased my dress here, with the exception of the major alterations disappointment. I have and will continue to recommend Bella Sposa, I will just encourage people to really move around and check any straps on the dress before taking it home for the big day!

I got my veil at Bella Sposa. I went to many different places in search of the perfect veil and fell in love with one at Bella’s. We ordered it immediately in white and paid in full the same day. Much to my dismay, about a week later, I got ...
a call from Bella’s saying that the vendor of the veil had an issue with production and couldn’t get it for us in white. I was devastated and both my mother and I called Bella’s and were less than kind to the ladies there. We were very upset that we had paid thinking the veil was all set, only to find that we couldn’t get it in the color we wanted over a week later. After trying several other locations for veils, we went back to Bella’s to look at a “plan B” to consider. Nothing compared to the original veil I had ordered. The seamstress at Bella’s spent several days shopping at craft stores trying to find the exact lace I wanted so she could make one in the color I wanted after the vendor said they couldn’t help us. The seamstress knew I wouldn’t be happy with anything less than what I had originally ordered and admitted that she couldn’t find the exact lace. We went back in and we ended up ordering an ivory veil and the seamstress took the lace off of this veil and put it on a white veil for me. It turned out perfect and the lace looked white against the white veil. They discounted us for the mishap and were incredibly accommodating every step of the way. Many wedding vendors do a wonderful job, Bella’s went above and beyond for us after a less than desirable situation that was completely out of their control. Highly recommend; you will not be disappointed and if you are, they will do everything in their power to make it right.

nted and did a wonderful job, she was very crabby and rude to all of my bridesmaids who got their dress altered there. Besides the seamstress' poor attitude, I think Bella Sposa did an amazing job assuring my dress was ready on time and I am very grateful for their talent and dedication.

They were so awesome from start to finish! I went to 6 different bridal boutiques and Bella sposa was by far the best. The ladies were so patient, were well educated on the dresses and what would work best to fit your body, and the fact that th...

Everytime I came in for a appointment, they would recognize me and have everything ready before I walked through the door, which was so nice because appointments were quick but we accomplished a lot. 100% perfect service!

I cannot say enough about Bella Sposa! I initially went in there because it was close to home and because I found a dress online that looked like it was carried here. When I came in, they told me they did not carry this exact address but could ...
order it for me to try on. It did not take long to arrive, and I fell in love with it immediately. I did try another dress is just to be sure, but ended up going with the one I first loved. They have SO many beautiful dresses… At times during fittings I would look around and see a new one I liked each time!! I also ended up ordering my bridesmaids dresses through them, which were just stunning. They were exactly what I was looking for, and they had so many options of colors. Jess and Jamie were amazing. I can't say enough. I felt like they were friends I'd known for a long time. They genuinely cared about how the dresses looked on me and stayed very involved even when the seamstress was making her alterations. The seamstress is in the adorable little Italian lady (can't remember her name), but she did beautiful work on my dress. The girls were so accommodating with making appointments, even rescheduling them at times. I absolutely loved working with this shop and would recommend going there to any bride!!

mpliment my figure. I fell in love with the 4th dress I tried on! My bridesmaids' dresses were also very easy to find and decide upon. We chose the long ombre dress in an ocean blue color (to complement the beach and Caribbean waters of Mexico). Even though it was a short engagement, the team at Bella Sposa tried their best and succeeded in getting the dresses in before our destination wedding. I did have a scare because my dress felt different from when I first tried it on, but Jamie (the owner) personally met with and assured me that with alterations, the dress would fit perfectly. She was right! A BIG thank you to Jamie, Jessica, and all the staff at Bella Sposa for making my wedding a beautiful and memorable one!!

on my body and the way the dress should look on me! While she showed me her choices, and I started to try them on I looked at one of her selection and said to her, "I know I'm not going to like this one." She goes, trust me. As she started to lace me up, I started crying because it was absolutely nothing like I expected - it was gorgeous and I looked amazing! These stylists know the dresses and know what type of body the bride should have to fit them - and it was the best experience! I also used Bella Sposa for my alterations and they did an exceptional job! They made my dress fit me like a glove and made me feel like family why I came to do my fittings - they are such wonderful people! I started to tell all my engaged girlfriends about Bella Sposa, and not only did I find my dress here, but my sister found her's here as well for her August 2016 wedding! Huge selection of dresses, delightful stylists and an even better atmosphere! Thank you so much Bella Sposa!

a, and I'm so glad I did. Trying on dress and after dress I had a totally different shopping experience. I was having a hard time just picking one. Jessica, a sales associate there was amazing. I had recently moved out of state, and had to fly back and forth for fittings and final decisions, she was so easy going and helpful. I just can't say enough nice things about her. Not once did I feel pressured to make a decision or uncomfortable in their shop. Not only did I find my dream dress, I got my bridesmaid dresses and mother of the bride dress at Bella Sposa.

I got both my wedding dress and bridesmaids dresses from Bella Sposa. I went shopping for my wedding dress on a Sunday, which is a day that is by appointment only, so it was great being in the boutique with just one other guest being helped by ...
another consultant that day. Bella Sposa is the first and only boutique that I ended up trying on dresses at before I found "the one." I went into the appointment with an open mind about style and fabric of dress not knowing what would look best on my body type. My consultant Cindy chose a variety of dress styles to help narrow down which style I liked best. After narrowing down that I wanted a ball gown, Cindy put me into a dress that I thought was totally not my type on the hanger, but it is so true when looking at wedding dresses that you really can not judge a dress on the hanger because I LOVED it and ended up choosing that dress in the long run. Cindy and the rest of the staff were very patient as I went back and forth between 2-3 dresses, and gave me no pressure at all to buy anything that day. My dad wanted to come back to see my final pick before buying a dress, and it was very easy to get in later in the week to try on the dress for my dad and ultimately buy the dress I chose. The dress came in about 6 weeks earlier than I was expecting, and I kept it there until I was ready to go to my seamstress for alterations. They were great about letting me come in to try the dress on a few other times as I narrowed down my veil and accessories. I knew when I started to look for bridesmaids dresses, I would want to return to Bella Sposa. Honestly, I didn't have much faith going in to look since they do have a limited about of designers that they carry and while I was open minded about the style of my wedding dress, I had a specific idea in my head for what I wanted the bridesmaids to wear. But since I loved their customer service looking for my dress I knew I had to at least start at Bella Sposa. While they may not have as many designers as the "big box/big name" bridal stores, what they do carry is phenomenal quality. We found beautiful lace dresses with the help of Cindy again that flattered every body type in my bridal party. We still went on to several other big name bridal shops because I wanted to make sure I had the "perfect" shade of red that I was looking for. Let me tell you I am so glad I didn't go anywhere for my own dress because I could tell going into these other stores that they cared more about the sale than the customer and at most places we didn't even have the help of a consultant to pick out dresses, just someone who showed us where the dressing room was and left us to fend for ourselves on a crazy Saturday. It was an easy decision to go back to Bella Sposa to order the bridesmaids dresses. They let my girls who lived out of town just call in or email their measurements and ordered me extra swatches of the dresses to have for the rest of my wedding planning. I loved everything about Bella Sposa, from their customer service, small boutique feeling, to the quality and selection of bridal and bridesmaids dresses at reasonable prices, and would definitely recommend them to anyone who is shopping for their wedding.
