In the beginning it was AWESOME! After the dress was purchased, it's been a nightmare, HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE FOR ME AS A BRIDE! I needed my dress cinched, cut, TAILORD TO MY LIKING & ACCENT MY FIGURE! This tailor was soooo difficult to work with, she arrived 20+ mins late, then had the audacity to tell me don't be late for my appointments, I explained to her profusely how I WANT YOU TO CINCH MY DRESS!!!! I have a coca cola figure& want all my accents to show!!! I come back 2 for the dress still too big on me she had the nerve to tell me " well then you should of picked a smaller size" I said " I chose a bigger size because I had a baby a few months ago & women after birth some of us may swell or get slender. I wanted to play safe" 3rd try, we went back & forth as I'm telling her it's still toooooo big! To top it off, I only tried my veil once on the 1st fitting. When asked on the 3rd try she syas I had no veil. All in all, my wedding is this weekend & my dress still fits big!!! I checked my surrounding tailors but it's too late! Now I have a beautiful dress that doesn't fit!!! I'm sooo not happy, this lady left a bad taste in my mouth!!! I'm sooooo VEXED I left out of this place with TEARS IN MY EYES!!! I wish I went somewhere else.
The BEST experience!! I have gained some weight over the past few years and haven't been the most comfortable in my skin. I had gone to several bridal boutiques and couldn't find anything I liked with the newer curves in my body. I was feeling pretty disappointed and down on myself by the time of my appointment at Bliss due to my previous experiences at other boutiques. BUT I can't express how wonderful my appointment at Bliss was. Sandy (the owner) had me pick out several dresses that I thought I might like. After talking about what I liked about each one after trying it on, Sandy had a spark of excitement and told me that she had a dress that was just discontinued but in my size if I would like to try it, but I would have to buy it as is since it was no longer in production. I took the risk and tried it on. Before I even had the corset tied all the way up, I burst into tears. The dress was PERFECT!!! I could not have found a dress that made me feel more confident and beautiful. I am so grateful for Sandy's help and guidance! BONUS! After finding my dress there, several months later, I took my mom and mother-in-law to Bliss. They both got the most beautiful dresses! I also got a stunning tiara and custom veil. Bliss is a one-stop shop!
Bliss was my second stop when looking for my wedding dress. I am a plus sized bride, and the staff at Bliss made me feel so comfortable and beautiful. I started crying when I saw THE dress on me. It was just so perfect! Communication with the shop was great, I was able to come in multiple times to try the dress on before and after it came in my size. Sandy’s smiling face really put me at ease about everything. She recommended Lee down the street for alterations (who did an amazing job!). The overall experience was truly wonderful.
The staff was so friendly and had wonderful service! I shopped here for my wedding dress and I found it that same day! I cried when I put it on and we all knew that was my dress. They kept the dress for me, and I was even able to have my alterations done with a woman who had a place right down the street from bliss bridal. She works closely with bliss, so they took my measurements and sent them over to the seamstress along with my dress which made things a lot easier for me! I was so happy with my visit!
BEWARE! DO NOT USE! My fiancée had to get a bridesmaid’s dress for an upcoming wedding. First red flag was that they DO NOT ship so we had to drive an hour and a half each way each time we went. When we picked up the dress they had ordered a dress two sizes too big and do not do alterations (second red flag). You would think if you are paying $200+ for a dress they would at least try to accommodate and get a size that was close. Now because of how big the dress is we had to spend an additional $200 for the dress to be altered. So in total a bridesmaid dress is costing $400 for 1 day. Save your time and money and use an online site like Azazie so your bridesmaids aren’t spending an arm and a leg for a dress they’ll only wear once in their lifetime.

Bliss did an extraordinary job helping me find the wedding gown of my dreams! Sandy and Mary are amazing to work with-they are hardworking, kind, and communicative. When I went for my first try on of dresses, I liked the top of one dress and the bottom of another dress. Sandy went above and beyond after my visit and found me a dress that was exactly what I dreamed of. She was able to get it shipped to Bliss for a time that was convenient for me and we were all blown away with how beautiful the gown was! I wanted all the sparkle possible and Mary suggested adding glitter tulle under the first layer of the dress. Mary worked with alterations to make sure this was possible! LD Alterations, their partner for alterations was phenomenal to work with and Bliss made it very easy to transition from them to the alteration phase. I also got my headband and veil from Bliss. Mary communicated with the vendors to help me get a custom-made veil. I felt like Bliss was always available when I needed them. They were responsive via text or phone call. We loved working with them so much that my mom chose to get her Mother of the Bride dress through Bliss as well. Mary was patient and listened to exactly what my mom wanted. They went above and beyond and made us feel like we were the most important bride and Mother of the Bride in the room! :) I highly recommend Bliss for your bridal boutique needs-they were incredible to work with! Thank you for helping make our wedding day a dream come true!
Sandy gave me such an amazing experience. Being a plus size bride it can be a little nerve wracking going into new places to shop. I was made to feel comfortable and included through out my entire visit. They even called a designer company to see if they could have a dress in my size sent to the store for a more accurate idea. I could go on about how great my appointment was but I recommend you give them a try to see for yourself!
Bliss Bridal was incredible to work with. From the first visit they were so welcoming and attentive. I tried on my initial seven dresses and left a bit on the fence with which one I wanted to choose. I came back a few months later and to narrow down between to dresses and they were so helpful throughout the entire process. Each time you enter, they are as welcoming and excited to have you. When I purchased the dress of my dreams, they gifted me with an adorable bridal dress cookie. They sent me several updates via text when my dress arrived, etc. to make sure that I knew what was next in the process. Their number one goal is to make sure you feel beautiful and find the dress of your dreams. I cannot recommend them enough to anyone looking for a personalized bridal shopping experience. Thank you Bliss Bridal team, I felt like a princess on my wedding day in my dress!
Bliss bridal was absolutely amazing. I had no idea what I wanted and they were so patient with me and helped me figure it out. Sandy was absolutely incredible in making sure every part of bridal gown shopping was magical. The environment and her warm personality made me feel comfortable and excited. I got the perfect dress and can’t wait for my wedding day.
My now wife and I visited Bliss Bridal as our first stop of many bridal stores. We were impressed with how beautiful the store is, and loved the cozy elegant feel inside. We both tried on dresses in a huge area with tons of space and a curtain for privacy. Sandy was the best to work with, and brings a great energy to the appointment, making you feel comfortable and at ease. She helped us in and out of the dresses and was vey organized and efficient. I never expected to find my dress at my FIRST appointment, but I did fall in love with a Willowby dress! We then proceeded to visit a few more bridal stores over the next month or so, and were disappointed with all the other stores. Bliss Bridal clearly stood out as the best, especially in terms of experience and service. I was under a short timeline to buy my dress, so Bliss called the designer and they happened to have one in stock in my size so we ordered it immediately! My fiancee at the time found her dress at another store, but Sandy was kind enough to let her have her alterations done with me at Bliss for convenience. Lee was excellent to work with for alterations, and our dresses came out perfectly. 10/10 Recommend Bliss Bridal!
I found the wedding dress of my dreams here! They were very pleasant to work with. Sandy helped pick out dresses based on my initial picks and preferences and showed me exactly what I was looking for! Bliss Bridal even steamed my dress and veil for me to pick up before the big day!
I had such an amazing experience at Bliss Bridal. My dream dress, that I had fawned over on Pinterest right after getting engaged and obsessing over, ended up being right at this store! Everyone who works here is warm, accommodating, and communicative. Blanca in alterations did a beautiful job with my dress and helped it fit perfectly. I highly recommend coming here for your dresses! Wonderful staff, affordable options, and beautiful gowns.
I had a great experience working with Bliss Bridal to find my wedding dress and for alterations to my wedding dress. Bliss has a very relaxed and comfortable atmosphere. I loved that I was able to look through all the dresses on the rack myself and they asked many questions about what I was looking for to help me find my perfect dress. I was between two different style dresses, and they helped me to determine which style I liked better by bringing in many different dresses in both styles until I was able to narrow it down. You can tell they love what they do and are very knowledgable about their dresses and the bridal industry. I also used Bliss for my alterations and worked with Joyce. She was EXCELLENT. She is so knowledgable and a master of her craft. She worked with me over several appointments to make sure my dress was absolutely perfect. She made it clear that she wasn’t going to be done until I was completely satisfied and loved my dress and how it fit! I highly recommend Bliss Bridal!
I went to a few different stores in CT, and I had the BEST experience at Bliss Bridal by far! They have a beautiful selection of gowns, and the staff is so friendly and helpful! I’m so excited that I found the perfect dress! I can’t wait to go back to Bliss to find my bridesmaids dresses.
I had the best experience at Bliss!! The first thing I noticed was how organized the dresses were. We worked with McKanna, who was absolutely AMAZING!!! She really listened to my likes and dislikes and ended up picking out the dress that I chose for my wedding!
We loved her so much, we went back for my bridesmaids dresses, mother of the bride and mother of the groom dresses! And each experience was as good as the last!
Then COVID hit and they held onto my dress for a year and a half until we were finally able to have our wedding reception.
I worked with Lee for alterations and she was awesome!! She was very knowledgeable about the dress, material and appropriate alterations that should be done. She always gave me her honest opinion which I appreciated! She eased my nerves when it came to alterations and never made me feel like I needed to do something to the dress. Every time I left alternations, my family and I couldn't stop talking about how much we loved her!
Bliss and their staff exceeded my expectations and I would recommend them to anyone looking for wedding dresses!
Everyone at Bliss was incredible, specifically Sandy. She helped me find my dream dress! Blanca, at the alterations department did a phenomenal job. I chose to have my train custom made with additional beading, and she brought my vision to life. I cannot say enough good things about all the wonderful women working here! Thank you for everything :)
The women helping me at Bliss Bridal were amazing. A woman is always nervous and excited to pick out her dream wedding dress, and that’s just what happened. I felt comfortable and at ease (never any pressure) trying on dresses, and the seamstress Blanca was such a sweetheart doing my alterations as well. The Allure dress I picked out was my highlight, and it was incredibly gorgeous!
I really loved my experience at Bliss Bridal... I almost wish I could get married again so I can go back and do the dress hunt again!! They made my experience so special despite the chaos of planning a wedding during a pandemic. This was my final bridal shop on my tour to find a dress and it was by far the best experience. I love love love my dress and loved the women who worked there. Highly recommend anyone to go to Bliss Bridal to find any wedding attire (bridal, bridesmaids, etc.)!
Thank you to Bliss Bridal for everything.
XO, Emily
I have nothing but great things to say about my experience with Bliss. From my try-on day, all the way through alterations (Lee was fantastic!), it was great. They were polite, helpful, and the store has a beautiful selection. I went to a few stores around Connecticut and Bliss was all around the best experience, and I'm so happy I got my dress there!
Bliss bridal was the first boutique I went to try on dresses. Before the appointment I was nervous & didn’t think I’d find more then one dress I really liked. Well, that was the complete opposite of my experience. I can’t say enough good things about the staff & overall whole experience there! Sandy made me feel so comfortable and was super helpful & friendly. I ended up finding my dream dress & am SO happy I decided to come here first!! Thank you Bliss Bridal :)!
I had the best experience at Bliss Bridal. Joanna was amazing when helping me pick out the perfect dress. Everyone I encountered there was so nice and so helpful
I would absolutely recommend any bride come to this shop for her bridal gown. Mac was amazing! Due to the pandemic, we could only have a couple people inside, but we pulled up chairs outside and I marched out there with the gowns on, which ended up being fantastic! First of all, we could see the dress in daylight, we felt safer than everyone being indoors, and it gave everyone some fresh air! Mac helped me and was so attentive, helpful, kind and honest. I am a very indecisive bride and she was so helpful at not making me feel pressure to decide on a gown that day as well as helped with some tips on how to land on a decision when the time was right. I loved that we were able to pick out dresses from the racks, take lots of pictures, try on accessories and have a little extra time than scheduled. This was such a special day, thank you Mac and Bliss Bridal!
My experience at Bliss was absolutely amazing! I had gone to a few other shops before bliss and tried on the same dress at everyone but decided to purchase from bliss because the whole experience was perfect. All the girls there are so nice and helpful! Not pushy or trying to sell a dress to you like some other places I had gone to. I never felt any pressure to buy when I was there. They listened to my likes and dislikes perfectly and found me so many amazing dresses which led to my perfect dress! I also purchased bridesmaids dresses from them as well and all the girls had the same great experience! I had my alterations done with a seamstress through them as well and she was just as amazing and my dress fit perfectly!
Bliss Bridal was personal, friendly, and the best experience I could have wished for while buying my gown! They took the time with me finding a gown, and rushed to get it before Covid hit the U.S. Alterations went smoothly, and communication was great!
Absolutely loved the experience of shopping here! I didn't have too much in mind going in and they helped me figure out what style I liked best and find the perfect dress! There was no pressure and they let me come back multiple times as I was debating between a few dresses.
I am in love with my bliss bridal wedding gown! I love that the consultant knew exactly what I was looking for and provided great options! I was able to order extra fabric with my dress to create the off the shoulder sleeves of my dreams! I highly recommend getting your dress at Bliss Bridal!
The staff at Bliss Bridal is out of this world! They honestly put you are the center of attention and work extremely hard to find the exact dress of your dreams. I loved them so much I when back to get my bridesmaids dresses.
Thank you Bliss Bridal for everything!
The dresses in this store are all SO stunning. The professional staff have so much fun helping you find your dress and are so comfortable to be around!! They made my dress finding experience memorable!
Best dress shop ever! Everyone here was kind and helped me find my perfect dress in literally 10 minutes! Amazing assortment of dresses to choose from!
Bliss Bridal was the first bridal shop I went to. My appointment lasted an hour and 45 minutes and I was helped by the nicest lady. The second dress was THE dress! Although I loved the dress, she took her time and helped picked out other dresses based on my likes and dislikes to see if I liked something better. She had no issues staying in my budget and didn’t pressure me at all. I may have tried on 10 dresses but ended up leaving for a second appointment at a different bridal shop. The appointment at the second bridal shop was only 45 minutes and I felt like they couldn’t get me out of their building fast enough. I may have tried on only 5 dresses. It was also extremely awkward when I would change dresses, I would be left standing naked in the cold room while she took the previous dress, hung it up, then opened up the next dress for me. Bliss Bridal made getting in and out of a dress quick and comfortable. I also got my alterations done there and it was affordable and easy!
I want send a HUGE thank you to Bliss Bridal out of Cheshire for my wedding dress. Jessica Watcke was more like my new best friend than my wedding dress vendor. Her store has a boutique feeling without the outrageous price tags. At first I thought I wanted something loud, lavish and crazy but together we found that simplistic old fashion beauty in the most unexpected place with the dress I did choose. I hadn't seen a dress like this anywhere before. Her staff is friendly, thorough and so caring. Although they have tons of clients, I always felt like I was their only one. I have already sent tons of people her way because of the tremendous experience I had, thank you again!
Bliss Bridal is the BEST! Don’t go anywhere else!! I knew that when I walked in the doors and met the Bliss Bridal Team for my first appointment I would be finding my dream wedding dress! All the staff made my experience of finding my dress so easy. Macanna was wonderful to work with and had such a presence about her that made me feel like I had known her for years. From setting up appointments with JoAnna, Macanna with guiding me to my beautiful dress, and Blanca with alterations I would have never been able to look as amazing as I did without them all! My bridesmaids also got their dresses here too and having most of my bridesmaids out of state, Bliss was so accommodating in making their experiences too a positive and excellent one. Truly a very special bridal store and highly recommend to anyone. You will leave as the happiest bride to be! 💗
From the moment my appointment started I knew I was in good hands. I had Macanna as my consultant. She gave me tags to put on dresses in the show room that I wanted to try on. After pulling the dresses she helped me get into them and show my mom. She was so helpful and kind and never pressured me into making a decision. She would help me point out different features of the dresses without really giving her opinion. I thought I found THE dress, but wanted to make a follow up appointment to show my sister the dress. After my second appointment I knew I wanted the dress and she still didn't pressure me and let me take my time looking in the mirror. She was also very patient with my 10 year old goddaughter who came with me.
The dress came in when Bliss said it would and they accommodated my schedule during my busy time at work so that I could look at the dress to make sure there were no flaws. I was recommended a seamstress that the store works with named Lee. She was fantastic. I was very anxious about the alteration process but she did a perfect job.
I hope one of my friends or sister goes to Bliss Bridal when it's their time to find a dress so that I can tag along! I had a great experience and would recommend the store to any bride. There were also a lot of dresses in a very reasonable price-range.
Thank you for the perfect dress!
Dear Bliss,
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! From start to finish we had the most amazing experience! I did initially have my first dress appointment at BHLDN. (See that review- a great experience as well, just not the style I was looking for.) At that fitting... I ended up finding out that I was leaning toward a ballgown style. I thought I would end up in something lacy and sleek, but the opposite happened. I know it sounds cliché, but PLEASE go into your appointment open minded. Everyone as Bliss is a professional, and you want to trust their guidance.
I brought a small party with me to this fitting, just my mom and grandmother. We had a great time tagging dresses to try on, plus a few wildcards. I probably tried on close to 10 that day... I believe it was dress #5... When I tried it on, I knew! Mom started crying. I went with a strapless ballgown from Essence of Australia- Style D2169
When it gets ordered, note that wedding dress sizes are NOT the same as your normal size. Just trust the process, and if you are a 4 in real life, but a 10 in a dress, TRUST them on this. They know how the sizing works. The first try on went great! We found a matching veil that day too.
I was given the option for a seamstress, and Blanca sounded like the best fit. She might have been the best past of the entire process. The work she did altering and bustling the dress was amazing! and it was perfect after 1 time! No second alteration needed. Bliss then steamed the dress, and I picked it up a few days before the wedding.
Now... one big tip, I knew I wanted a ballgown as I loved the way it looked and how it would photograph, but it was HEAVY. By the end of the night, I did feel the weight of it in my legs and hips. If comfort is something you are concerned about on your wedding day, definitely keep that in mind. I think a lot of times, look is considered over comfort.
To everyone at Bliss, thank you for everything! I will continue to recommend you!
The staff at Bliss Bridal is outstanding and so, so sweet. They’re experts at what they do - from administrative duties to helping you pick out your dream gown to alterations, my experience was top notch. I went in with a spreadsheet of gowns, I think I tried on 7 or 8 and kept going back and forth...my consultant brought me a final dress that she felt encompassed all the details I was looking for and BAM. The tears were flowing and I knew it was the one. After that, Joanna stayed in contact with me through the whole process of when the gown arrived, alteration appointments, etc. Joyce did my alterations and my dress was PERFECT. I highly recommend Bliss to find your dream gown!
I am so glad I chose bliss bridal! From start to finish the staff were amazing and such a support throughout the process. The consultant I worked with during my first appointment listened to exactly what I was looking for and pulled the perfect dress for me to try which turned out to the be the one! I live out to state and had to fly in for appointments and fittings. Staff were so accommodating and were willing to work around my travel schedule. I loved my experience at Bliss and I was so incredibly happy with how my dress fit and looked on wedding day!
They were amazing, from the moment you walk in you are treated special and they’re very accommodating to all that come with you. I got the dream experience at bliss and found a dress I love and would’ve never picked out myself! Jessica is as great, as was Joyce the lady who did my alterations. Wedding is tomorrow and cannot wait to wear my dress! I’ve been recommending this place to everyone , you will not be disappointed!
I loved every minute of working with bliss bridal for my June 30,2018 wedding! They are some of the kindest most amazing ladies! Each fitting was amazing- and the seamstress they use was awesome! Macana is who helped me most, and I loved her so much! Everyone there is so genuine and happy to help- no call I ever made was too silly! They even allowed me to come and show my dress to my maid of honor when she was in CT, because she could not be there when I picked it out. They are so accommodating and amazing, I truly cannot say enough positive things!
Bliss Bridal Salon is one in a million. These amazing women offer so much more than just dresses- they provide an experience of picking out what works and looks best for you in a no-stress environment and for an affordable price. Their customer service is amazing and they truly get to know you as a customer. As an overwhelmed bride I was unsure as to what exactly I wanted, and they helped me find exactly what I needed for everything from my dress to my accessories, and bridesmaids. I recommend them to everyone I talk to!
I had a PHENOMENAL experience with Bliss Bridal. I was way out of my comfort zone picking out a wedding dress as I am not someone who has dreamed about the dress she would wear on her wedding day, or even the girl who really had any idea what she wanted. But, Bliss Bridal helped me every step of the way. It started with my first conversation on the phone setting up my appointment. JoAnna (who is wonderful and always remembered me every time I came in!) informed me about everything I would need to know coming to the appointment and was there to greet me with a smile when I walked in. From there, my hand was held the entire step of the way (which I needed) to find my perfect dress. I could not have felt more comfortable and so very pleased to find my perfect dress. Alterations with Lee were just as great and she did an incredible job!! I could not have been happier with the entire experience and would highly recommend Bliss Bridal to any bride, bridesmaid, or mother of the bride looking for not only the perfect dress, but a fantastic experience. Thank you to everyone at Bliss for making the most special day of my life that much more special!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I used bliss bridal for my wedding gown after my sister did the year prior. Their professionalism and love for the job truly is exemplified by all their staff. They are knowledgeable and work with their brides to make sure their needs are met and they find the dress of their dream! We could not have asked for a better experience! And watching my now husband not be able to stop talking about how perfect and 'me' was made the day even better and was because of bliss!
The moment you walk into Bliss Bridal, you feel instantly welcomed by the staff and the salon itself. I had visited a few other bridal salons prior to visiting Bliss, and my experience at Bliss was so completely different. During my first appointment, Jessica and JoAnna took the time to get to know me and my family, and allowed me to go through on my own and put paper hearts on the hangers of dresses I was interested in trying on. In other stores, this was not an option. Throughout the process of trying on dresses, the girls provided such patience, honesty, comfort and kindness. This is what sets Bliss apart. Not only are they talented and insanely knowledgeable about their field, but they are simply kind, down to earth humans you just want to catch up and have coffee with :-). JoAnna especially took the time to ease my worries (and my moms!) about dress logistics, and put us in touch with Blanca who delivered amazing alterations! Check out Bliss- you will NOT regret it!!
My sister and I both found out perfect wedding dresses at Bliss! The staff are all lovely and so helpful. Each person we spoke with were very knowledgeable about designers and how each dress would fit. They make the wedding dress shopping experience easy and fun! My bridesmaids also got their dresses at Bliss and it was so easy and fun for them to pick out the styles! Over all I would recommend Bliss to anyone and everyone!
There are so many decisions to make when planning a wedding. When it came time for me to look for a wedding dress I didn't even know where to begin. I found Bliss Bridal online and it had great reviews and was local so I figured it would be a good place to start. Well, that was certainly the best decision I could have ever made because this shop is simply amazing.
The moment you walk through the door you are greeted with an adorable chalk welcome sign personalized with your name on it. It is just such a nice, warm touch which starts the welcoming vibe that continues throughout Bliss.
The dresses are incredible. They are all so gorgeous, well-maintained, and organized to make finding a dress that fits your style easy.
But, the best part about Bliss is the staff! Everyone is so kind and helpful! Joanna was always accommodating with appointments and scheduling in person and over the phone. She managed to keep everything so well organized to make the process so much easier. Macanna was absolutely incredible. She was always so bubbly and ready to help in any way she could. Macanna helped me to try on every style of dress--from poofy dresses to strapless to lace--in order to help me figure out what I was most comfortable in. After I put on each dress, before I went out to show my mom and bridesmaids Macanna would ask me my thoughts--she was always so caring to make sure that I was choosing something that I was truly comfortable in and felt good about. After trying on six dresses I was getting worried--but Macanna had one last dress for me to try. I put the dress on and loved it but was also simply exhausted from the emotions of the day that I didn't know if it was the one or not. Macanna reassured me that I didn't need to make a decision right then--and even encouraged me not to because if I waited a couple of weeks that designer was having a trunk show and the dress would be discounted. She offered to have me come back and try it again and to help me in any way I needed. A couple of weeks later I went back--Macanna had already set aside my top two dresses for me and helped me try them on. At that point I knew that the final dress I had tried on was the one.
After the great experience with Macanna choosing my dress we decided to use them for all of the bridesmaids dresses too! Once again they were so accommodating and patient to help us find dresses that fit the styles of seven bridesmaids.
I cannot recommend Bliss Bridal enough. My experience at Bliss Bridal was so incredible--I am actually sad that I don't have any reason to go back at this point! Best Bridal Shop ever!!
Bliss Bridal has been amazing!! Me and my two sisters all found our wedding dresses here and bridesmaids dresses! The people are so kind and patient. They make sure that you are happy and comfortable! Highly recommend.
What a great experience shopping at Bliss Bridal! Everyone was friendly and very helpful. They paid attention to my tastes to help narrow down selections, and were very respectful of my budget.
I had a fantastic experience trying on dresses at Bliss Bridal. The entire staff was very welcoming and friendly. They made me feel like family during the entire visit. We had a cute little room where I could try dresses on in private and my Mom, future MIL and MOH had a couch to sit on. I loved that I could pick a few dresses to try on and then the staff would make recommendations as we moved along. They really were able to guide me as this was the first(and last!) time I tried on wedding dresses. They were very sweet about setting up a little table for our champagne toast when I said yes to the dress! I can’t recommend them highly enough for anyone who wants a relaxed and fun dress shopping experience.
I'm so happy I found my dress at Bliss Bridal! I loved my experience here and highly recommend them to anyone that is dress shopping. With the help of their staff I was able to find my perfect gown! My first appointment was wonderful, I brought a few people with me and Bliss Bridal was wonderful accommodating them. It was a wonderful place to begin my dress shopping experience and they set the bar for any place I had visited after. I also got my dress altered by Blanca and she did a fantastic job. Altering my dress was time consuming because of the lace that was on my dress. I'm am extremely happy with my purchase from Bliss Bridal.
The second I stepped into Bliss I knew I was somewhere special! Every girl who works there is incredibly inviting, friendly, and helpful, and it's clear they truly love what they do. They accommodated my large group during my appointment and kept everyone involved and excited. When it came to picking out a dress, they made me feel comfortable, and never like they were trying to "sell" me on a dress. I ended up finding "the dress" during my first appointment, but every time I came back for a fitting or for my final pick-up they were just as warm and friendly as the first day I walked through their doors. Love this shop!
The team at Bliss Bridal made the whole dress experience a breeze. I was very weary about dress shopping because I had no idea what I wanted or what I was doing. I went to a popular CT wedding shop before visiting Bliss and it was a miserable experience, so I wasn't looking forward to my trip here. Macanna was AMAZING! She made me feel so comfortable and showed me all the different wedding gowns so I would see which style I liked best. It couldn't have been a better experience at Bliss Bridal!

What a wonderful shop. They were so nice and accommodating . The dresses were beautiful and they answered all my questions.
All of the ladies at Bliss made finding and fitting my dress so fun and easy! Macanna was wonderful during my appointment and Lee the seamstress was also great. Bliss has the perfect mix of expert advice and beautiful dress selection with personalized service, and no pressure! Being able to the shop the floor and choose dresses to try on myself was a huge help. I never had any doubts or worries about my dress thanks to Bliss!
The ladies at Bliss were amazing. They helped me find the perfect dress with zero pressure. Their prices were also very reasonable. I would highly recommend their seamstress Joyce as well. She worked a miracle on my dress to make it fit perfectly and was also very reasonably priced. Overall an A+!
I first went to Bliss as a bridesmaid and I knew if I ever got married I would be buying my dress there. I worked with Macanna to purchase my wedding gown and bridesmaid dresses, and she was so incredibly patient and helpful through every step of the process. I absolutely love how Bliss lets you walk around the floor and touch and see every dress that catches your eye. It is a very comfortable "no pressure" buying process that made picking my wedding gown so easy and fun.
These ladies are fantastic! Everyone there made looking for the perfect dress fun and not stressful. I had a wonderful experience working with them! We got not only my dress here but my bridesmaids and my mother’s dress. They have a great selection of different styles of dresses. Highly recommend Bliss!
Jess was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. Bliss Bridal was my fourth store visit and it could not compare to the others (other stores were in Manhattan). The visit was so personal. I was able to bring my guests (mom's and bridesmaids) no problem. We were given the time and space needed to look through the gowns, which their selection was INCREDIBLE. During the first appointment, Jess listened to what I liked/didn't like, and was able to make recommendations from there. The dress I fell in love with was actually one that Jess picked out for me! It was absolutely perfect, everyone LOVED it. The entire process from our first appointment, to coming in to see the dress when it arrived, a visit for a trunk show, to our alterations was just amazing. I am so thankful for Jess and Bliss Bridal and am so happy I found the perfect dress there!!
Bliss bridal is the best! Bliss bridal was my first store that I went to when trying to find my dream dress. I went to two other bridal gown locations and nothing compared to Bliss Bridal. From the moment you walk in you are welcomed and celebrated. McKenna helped me with finding my dress and made the entire experience so fun. She was professional, kind, and incredibly helpful. My fittings went perfectly with Joyce, who had a remarkable talent in alterations and listened to all my needs throughout the process. On the day of my wedding I got compliment after compliment on my dress. Everyone wanted to know where I got it from. Highly recommend!
I only went to 4 stores.. but my mother used to own a bridal shop back in the day and now owns a prom shop so we couldn't help but critique shops when we were looking for my dress. Bliss Bridal gets an A+. They have fantastic service, will not overwhelm you and are the sweetest people ever. They had so many beautiful dresses too and I got so many compliments on my dress. I swear it was icing on the cake to have purchased my dress from such amazing women! Great experience.
I had been to about 4 bridal stores prior to my appointment at Bliss. I could tell the second I walked in the door, everyone's spunky upbeat personalities would make trying on dresses fun for me. Macanna was great from the start. I loved how I could go in and choose the ones I wanted to try on. Once I tried on a few and explained what I was looking for, she ended up picking the perfect one for me that had every element I asked for!
I came back to Bliss for the veil/jewelry trunk show and purchased a discounted veil which was great. Joyce did all of my alterations which turned out perfectly. We ended up purchasing bridesmaids dresses from Bliss as well and we were very happy with the selections in the store. Everyone was always so quick to return my calls and keep me updated with future appointments. Every person I met along the way truly cares about their job and does everything just right to make sure dress shopping is a special day for brides. Thank you!!
Every bride dreams of looking perfect on her wedding day. I always imagined a gorgeous white gown that would make everyone stare, and take my groom’s breath away. Often when you spend so much time imagining something, the reality is a bit of a let down. That was completely NOT the case with my dress! Bliss Bridal exceeded my hopes and dreams. Never could my imagination have lived up to my actual experience. My dress wasn’t just gorgeous, it was perfect. I felt like I was a princess in a movie living a fantasy. It fit perfect and felt great throughout the entire reception. I will forever be grateful for their help with the most important aspect of being a bride: the dress! (I guess husband too). Not only was the dress so beautiful, but the entire process with them from start to finish was smooth. They were lovely and sweet with me from the first moment I walked into their boutique. I never felt pressure or like someone was trying to sell me on anything. They were truly concerned with my happiness and satisfaction. That is why I came away totally and completely satisfied. I will always remember all of you! Each time I went to Bliss Bridal the people there made my day. I really have to say THIS DRESS was THE PERFECT DRESS for me. Thank you a million times for being punctual, responsible and just for being there for me. You truly run a fantastic business. Jessika Sierra (April 21 st, 2018)
All of my interactions with Bliss were phenomenal! The day of my appointment I had no idea what I wanted in a dress, or even if I wanted a traditional dress. Sandy made the entire process easy, she listened carefully to my feedback on each of the dresses. She also kept my mom & mother-in-law and bridesmaids entertained so I could have a few minutes alone to decide how I felt about the dress before showing them.
It was easy to make my second appointment and purchase my dress and the dress was delivered in a reasonable amount of time. I've been recommending Bliss to everyone!
What a perfect place to get a wedding dress! The entire staff was a delight to work with, including the tailor. Everything is done on site and we were able to go back several times to see my dress. The setting is full of natural light, which is really the best way to try dresses on. No stuffy dressing rooms! The selection is fabulous, the staff helpful, and I can truly say I'll miss them now that I have my perfect dress!
Staff is very helpful & informative! Felt comfortable and enjoyed the experience immensely! Staff had great input but wasn’t at all pushy! Loved the dress selection as well! Perfect spot for dress shopping!
So happy I said yes to the dress at Bliss Bridal for my November 2017 wedding! The staff here are fantastic! They are warm, welcoming, and make you feel so special. My favorite part about the experience was getting to browse the selection before trying anything on, unlike most other salons that bring you dresses “guess-and-check” style. You are given 10 cards to hang on the hangers of your 10 favorite dresses. Then based on your reactions and feedback, the consultant will either bring in your other choices or start pulling her own picks she thinks are more in the right direction. As someone with a definite vision and style opinion, I loved getting to see, touch and feel all the dresses and having a say in what they put me in. All the dresses are clean and look like new, and everything is very on-trend, yet still a large variety of styles to choose from! And after selecting a dress, the fitting appointments were seamless. The tailor was very sweet and incredibly talented. She made sure everything fit to my comfort and preference, and she even taught me how to best pose in my dress (and I looked amazing in my pictures because of it)! Everyone was professional and on time. I hope I never have to buy another wedding dress (unfortunately), but I will definitely be recommending all my newly engaged friends and family to go to Bliss!
I had an amazing experience at Bliss Bridal! I brought a few pictures with me of the style of dress I thought I wanted. While my family and I tagged dresses to try on, Sandy grabbed a bunch that were in the style I had wanted and we got to work! We quickly realized that what I thought I wanted wasn’t really what was going to work for me. Sandy was great at assessing what I liked and didn’t like and kept bringing dresses until we found the one! I never felt rushed, and I was there for probably two hours my first appointment and another hour my second appointment, which was when I made my final decision. They really made the process extra fun and less stressful. The service was excellent, there was a large selection of dresses to choose from and I found the way they organized and labeled the dresses to be really helpful is well. Another thing I really appreciated was that Sandy never brought a dress out that was above the budget I set (other places I had been to, they would bring dresses out that were $500+ more than what I told them I wanted..). At one point she mentioned that she had a dress that she thought fit the description of what I was looking for but she asked multiple times if I wanted to see it or not and made absolutely sure I was okay with it before bringing it out. I found the respect for a bride’s budget to be a definite strong point for this shop. I would highly recommend looking for your wedding dress here!! Overall a fantastic experience!!
Bliss Bridal was not my first stop, but it was certainly my last. I tried on tons of dresses, but the 1st one I tried up ended up being the dress of my dreams. Everyone at Bliss is amazing. They go above and beyond to work with you and help you. I never felt rushed or that I was being a bother. I would ask to try dresses on multiple times and they had no problem. They truly understand the stresses of choosing a wedding gown. Everything went smoothly from beginning to end. We also did all the guy's tuxedos through Bliss and it was so easy and very reasonably priced compared to some chain stores. And let me tell you the tux's looked amazing, great quality. I couldn't be happier with this place, you cannot go wrong with Bliss!
First and Only stop I made! The customer service and hospitality is exceptional! Tons of dresses to choose from. My bridesmaids even purchased there dresses from here. I purchased a Justin Alexander gown from here for my wedding day on 12/2/17 and it was absolutely stunning! The alterations were perfect and fit like a glove. Prices are very reasonable too! I would highly recommend this salon!
Great experience from beginning to end. Staff is exceptional and the variety for plus size gowns was fantastic! I loved them so much, I used them for my bridesmaid dresses as well :) Bridal dress alterations were fantastic, timely and done with incredible expertise and professionalism. The dress fit PERFECTLY and was absolutely gorgeous on the big day! Love this place!
Bliss Bridal is everything a girl could hope for when searching for her wedding gown! First of all, the staff are the friendliest bunch of people I've ever met. They are so sweet and bubbly and you genuinely feel that they are just as excited about you finding your dress as you are. One of my favorite things about the experience was that they allow you, and whoever you bring with you, to walk around and pick out dresses. Bliss has an amazing selection, but will not make you feel overwhelmed. The dressing rooms are huge and private creating a really comfortable experience. Macanna was incredible to work with and helped to make my experience one I will never forget! I also met one of the owners and it was evident how much she cares about her customers! The whole process from picking out my dress, to alterations, to picking up my dress went so smoothly. I highly recommend Bliss Bridal to anyone looking for a dress!
Bliss Bridal is everything I could have imagined and more! Each and every employee is absolutely incredible, and made my shopping the best experience! They were able to tailor the whole process to my opinions and needs, and were so fun to work with. Each step of the process from finding the dress to fittings to alterations was easy and an absolute pleasure. I highly recommend them!!
I wish I could give bliss bridal 10 stars! They made dress shopping fun, easy, and an experience I will never forget! Not only did I find my dress at bliss bridal, but my mom, who is in a wheelchair, found her dress there as well. They were so accommodating; they not only moved things around for us at the salon, but they held all of our appointments on their first level (not where they normally do mother of the bride appointments). As soon as you walk in, they treat you as if they’ve known you for years. They are a salon that truly cares about their clients and about finding that perfect dress to make your wedding day everything you’ve ever dreamed of! I will recommend bliss bridal to everyone I know in need of finding a wedding dress.
Everyone at Bliss Bridal was amazing. They were helpful, knowledgeable and most of all overwhelmingly friendly. I found my perfect dress and they made the ordering and alterations time schedules for fittings and picking up my dress a breeze. Every interaction I had with them was great and my dress was perfectly customized for me and I got so many compliments on it. I highly recommend them!
I found bliss bridal on a whim when I was looking for bridal shops. I live north of Hartford, and I read a few nice reviews and saw they were having a trunk show for Essense gowns so I thought I would check it out. The shop was amazing - the staff has turned an older house into a bridal shop. The ladies who run the store are so friendly and nice. When we arrived for our appointment there was a board with my name on it welcoming me to the shop. They let us look through the gowns and pick ones I wanted to try on, and then as we went through gowns they helped bring more gowns. They were so nice and the prices were very reasonable for the gowns. I bought my essense dress there and from first appointment all the way through the fittings, the shop was just wonderful to work with. We also bought our bridesmaids dresses there and had such a great time. They have a room upstairs which they reserve completely for you and there were about 10 of us there and they let us try on as many dresses as we wanted and bring champagne. I also had my wedding gown tailored there and Blanca did such an amazing job for such a reasonable price. I would highly highly recommend Bliss for all your wedding dress needs!
I am so glad I got my brida gown at Bliss Bridal. Jess and her team were so happy, welcoming, and helpful; they truly shared in your excitement! Shopping for a dress can be stressful, but Bliss Bridal made sure to take the stress out of everything they could. My gown was beautiful the day of my wedding and I couldn't have imagined anything more perfect. I would recommend Bliss Bridal to all of my friends and family!
Very pleased!!!!!! So friendly and helpful. Thank you for helping me find my dream dress.
I cannot say enough amazing things about Bliss Bridal. Jess was just amazing! I had picked out another dress at a different place that I was unsure of. I showed the picture to Jess and told her what I didn't like about the dress. She was able to tell me why I was having those difficulties and pick out a dress that was perfect for my body shape (short & curvy). This was the dress of my dreams. I couldn't have picked a better dress ever! I am, however, someone who impulse buys and she was not pushy at all when I said I needed to think about it. The whole process at Bliss was comfortable and easy. They also did my alterations there and Lee did such a perfect job. I will always remember my husband crying as I walked down the aisle. He actually said, "I couldn't have picked a better dress for you. It was perfect." I recommend Bliss to EVERYONE!
I can't rave about my experience enough! I found my dress in 20 minutes thanks to the staff going ABOVE and BEYOND the call of duty. I found a dress I loved from a designer they carried, but the dress was not at the store. They called the designer, secured the dress to be sent specifically for my appointment, and it was love at first sight. I never felt pressured to buy anything even after I knew I loved the dress. It was a great special day.
Going to Bliss Bridal for my wedding dress was the best experience I could have asked for, and a big part of that has to do with their amazing staff, especially Jess. I was a little nervous starting my dress search. I am definitely not the most confident person, nor the girliest, so I was nervous about the idea of finding a dress that I was actually going to love and feel comfortable in. However, Jess immediately put me at ease and had me enjoying the entire experience. She is the absolute sweetest, nicest person and provided the perfect balance of helping me figure out what type of dress I wanted while not being pushy or persuasive. We were able to look through all of the dresses and tag the ones I wanted to try on, and Jess also picked out a couple as well just to show different styles that I may not have initially picked, but ended up looking great with my body shape. She also never once pressured me to make a decision and was very patient with my indecisiveness. To be honest, I didn't order my wedding dress at my first appointment. I had another appointment already made at a different bridal store afterward and wanted to go to make sure the dress I liked was really "the one". They other store was no comparison, though. The other store actually had my wedding dress as well, and I ended up driving all the way back to Bliss Bridal just to order it from them because of how amazing they are. The only reason I am giving 4 stars instead of 5 is because of the alterations. I believe that the alterations department is technically considered separate from the store, but they are the recommended alterations team and the alterations were done at the store's location. It was a nightmare. I felt so good when my dress first came in and I had the initial meeting with the seamstress. However, when I went for my final fitting, 3 weeks before my wedding, the dress looked AWFUL. When she put the bustle up, the front and back of the dress were even, while the sides were at least 6 inches longer, clumped up and dragging on the floor. How does that even happen? It looked so bad. And since I live in Boston, and it was so close to the wedding, I had no way of making another fitting appointment. I had to just pray that when I picked up my dress the day before my wedding, that it was all fixed. Fortunately, when I picked up the dress, it was a lot better and a lot more even along the bottom, but the added stress it put on up to that day was not helpful. Also, the bustle was not made well at all. I had mentioned my nervousness regarding the bustle to the seamstress before because it seemed like the dress was pulling where the bustle buttons were and wasn't going to hold the dress; however, she ignored my concern and just kept saying it was fine. The bustle barely made it through my first dance before it broke and wouldn't stay up the rest of the night, causing me to have to carry it around all evening. This is in no way me saying anyone should stay away from Bliss Bridal. I would still 100% tell everyone there is no better place to get your wedding dress from, just make sure to go somewhere else for your alterations!
My bridesmaids and I had a great experience at Bliss Bridal. I accidentally booked a bridal appointment instead of bridesmaids, but they just rolled with it and were able to accommodate us. Our rep was amazing - so helpful, honest with advice and really listened to what we wanted. She helped us find a line of dresses that looked great on everyone. The dresses came in ahead of schedule! Customer service is A+. My only wish is that they offered bridesmaid tailoring on site so that my girls could all have gone there and had the same level of service they got when buying their dresses.
