Beyond The Veil Bridal Reviews

Reviewed On 4/18/2022 by Mikaela G
If you are wanting a company that looks after you and not just out to sell you a dress, go to Beyond the Veil! I was in a tough spot—I travel in a 15-passenger van all across the country for work and don’t have the time or opportunity to find (...
let alone store) a dress for my upcoming wedding. To make it even more difficult, I’m essentially a volunteer with a living stipend of about $300 a month. Not exactly enough to afford a decent dress. Luckily my fiancé and I are having a VERY small wedding with just immediate family at the Grand Canyon which means we don’t have the traditional expenses of decorations, catering, matching tablecloths and napkins, flowers, and so forth. On the other hand, that also means I don’t get much of the “bride” experience. Originally, I ordered a dress on Amazon like so many women before me. I figured there was no way I could ever afford anything in an actual bridal shop—not when dresses frequently sell for thousands of dollars. But Amazon canceled my order without explanation (and a good thing too because my team and I got redeployed and I would have been long gone by the time the dress got to the hotel). When I went to Beyond the Veil, I didn’t actually expect to find anything in my price range. It was sheer desperation and some kind of hope for a “bridal experience” I felt I was missing out on. Beyond the Veil challenged every notion I had about a bridal shop. Not only did I find a dress that far exceeded my expectation, but the manager was so nice and went out of her way to work with me to find a dress that I loved, that fit, and that was within my budget! The owners were incredibly friendly and continued to treat me like I was important even after they knew of my dinky budget. The whole experience was the first time since I’ve been engaged that I felt like someone outside my fiancé and his family was excited for me and reminded me that it’s ok for me to be the center of attention for a while. Which meant more to me than anyone at the shop will ever know. I never felt like a bride until that moment. I highly recommend this shop!

I bought my dream dress here and I am extremely happy with my purchase. I found a discounted dress that was exactly what I wanted and hardly needed any alterations. I also purchased a veil a full price that was nearly half the price of my dress...
but I am so glad I did. The dress and veil together were stunning and cost about $600. The representatives that I worked with were extremely friendly and not pushy. They worked me into their schedules last minute, without an appointment, and I am so thankful for that as I had less than two months until our wedding. I highly recommend this dress shop!

Reviewed On 10/10/2018 by Marie F
Unfortunately the worst experience of my entire wedding preparation by far. I cannot even say their "business model" has much to do with business and communication. It was very frustrating that the entire process was a complete lack of communi...
cation on their part. From bait and switch tactics, to outlandish pricing at every turn once you commit to a dress and lastly, not making good on previous promises. Be prepared to spend significantly more than you budget with this shop. I had a designer in mind that they told me they carried. Only to find out that the selection was very limited and of course cost way more than they originally estimated. There was no communication of all the costs associated with each step in the process at the time of purchase. I was presented with a $700 quote for alteration when I was originally told they can do much of the changes (which evidently was extensive) for little to no cost at the time I purchased the dress. They could not acquire the veil I really wanted from the dress maker I had dreamed of and thankfully went somewhere else to get it. Once agreeing to the alteration costs, (again after having no other choice) I was told they potentially could not do what was the most important change that I needed. At least in the end with all the stress and anticipation of how it would end up looking, they were able to make the correction within the last week of the wedding. With much pushing on my end. It became painfully evident VERY early in the process that I would have to call, schedule, ask, email and continually follow through with communication and be persistent to get what I needed. It was a complete total lack of communication on their part the whole way. As if all this wasn't enough, I needed shoes near the end of the process and they had a sign in the store that what they had were 50%. Again the bait and switch occurred that only the select pairs and sizes IN THE STORE were 50% off. And the shoes I ordered (they chose) were potentially the wrong color and they needed to order another pair last minute. They said they would pay for the rush shipping since "they were responsible" and they would charge my card the day of the wedding or near after. The $50 shoes I thought I selected wound up being $285 with no receipt or explanation. Upon returning the shoes after the wedding I was credited $119. Again another bait and switch cost that put me over the edge with this store. I'm sure this is not an easy business given the emotional nature of one of the most important purchases in the event of a lifetime. They came no where close to meeting my expectations of their continual words to me. " We will take care of you." Regrettably, I would tell you to stay far away from their empty words and outlandish prices that they so often tell you that "other shops" practice. I'm just thankful that I could proceed to completion to have the beautiful wedding and the dress and veil of my dreams despite all their actions that could have jeopardized my outcomes. All the best to your dress finding journey and your, "I DO!"

My first experience with Beyond the Veil was nothing short of amazing. I had high hopes and expectations. We had discussed what I wanted from the very beginning, 11 months before I got married. When I picked the dress without even seeing it in ...
person, I stated I would want to add a simple sleeve. I was not comfortable with bare arms in October. I was reassured many times this would be no problem. When I visited the shop in June, we discussed the sleeves and appliqué I wanted to add along the waist and across the edge of the bust. Again, I was reassured this was simple and no problem. They were going to send me fabric options and go from there. I ended up having to call and email multiple times to receive my choices. I was told to make an appointment to come back in July. I was very understanding as I know they are very busy and a small shop. I wasn't scheduled an appointment in July, but rather, later because of all the summer weddings. My mom went to the shop to clarify the simple applique details and helped pick the appliqué for me. At the appointment, one of my sleeves was complete and the appliqué trim pinned on to be sewed. This was simply a narrow applique trim to be added around the waist and the top edge of the bust. The dress was pinned to my height. I was asked to come back the middle of September and it would be complete. Unfortunately, since I work 12 hour night shifts, had a fiancé going through chemo and live 5 hours away, I decided to schedule the appointment out an extra week to assure everything was completed and there would be no delays. On my way to Vancouver, I was advised by the shop that my dress and veil would not be ready Monday morning and were not ready because the material was on back order. This was confusing to me, as they had all the material at my last visit, and the applique trim was already pinned on the dress. After several calls I was text messaged to come to the shop after 5 pm on the Tuesday before my Saturday wedding. I was extremely frustrated because I had company flying in from across the country on Wednesday, decorating and other last minute wedding details and still waiting on my dress. When I arrived shortly after 6pm, I was told my dress was still not ready and that maybe I should go get a mocha! Once the ladies who I had never met brought it out to me, they told me to try it on if I wanted and asked if I needed help. They got the dress in the dressing room and I pointed out they had missed a 6 inch section of appliqué and had not sewn the bra cups in. At this point it is very late in the evening. I was in a hurry to drive back across the state to pick up company arriving. Without any regard for the days I had spent waiting in Vancouver, I was asked how I wanted to settle the remaining $187. I have no problem paying for anything. The dress and additions were rather expensive, in fact the price of the additions changed frequently. It was the manner of disregard of my time 3 days before my wedding that rubbed me wrong. Ultimately, I got my dress and the $187 was paid. I was home 2 days before my wedding absolutely exhausted from driving until 5am. There is no doubt the dress, sleeves and appliqué were lovely. One wouldn't know that by the awful picture posted on the website of me on my phone, no makeup, black bra out and my hair a mess. Sadly, by the end of the night, both sleeves had ripped off, bustle buttons broke and stitching came undone. Luckily, we only wear our wedding dresses once!
