I had such a great experience finding a dress for my big day. I did the Say Yes Experience. It was so worth it to have a private suite to try on dresses. Molly was fantastic. She h...
elped me find my dress so quickly and made sure we had fun along the way.
Blush Bridal was by far the best experience that I had trying on wedding dresses. Michelle heard everything that I was saying and picked out some of my favorite dresses- including ...
the one I said yes to! The dress was ordered in July and expected to arrive in December, but somehow it arrived only a month later in August! The dress was perfect and they had lots of great advice for alterations and shops to check out.
Jami was the greatest part of my wedding dress shopping experience. We had so much fun (my bridesmaids and moms and me!) trying on dresses with her and she did such an incredible j...

AMAZING and the BEST!!!! They made wedding dress shopping the most fun and were the best hype team. They truly listened and cared about helping me find my dream dress. Big shoutout...
to Molly and Shannon for being so fabulous. Would recommend them again and again for your wedding dress dreams!!!!
SHANNON!!! WOW! I had a difficult experience at other bridal shops finding a dress I wanted with all the details I wanted in a dress. Shannon listened to me, let me look at the dre...
sses on the floor and pick some for myself, and picked some out for me. She was so helpful in the fitting room and made me feel so confident. Shannon helped me find my dream dress that I felt comfortable and confident in. I truly could not have found it without her and every time I put on that dress I felt like it was my dream dress. Jaimie helped with measuring and was super knowledgeable in getting me the right size dress. Shannon also helped me find the perfect veil. I will always recommend Blush and thank them for their patience and leading me in the right direction for my special day. THANK YOU!
I had the most magical experience at Blush Bridal! I purchased my wedding dress here and decided to upgrade to the bridal experience in the upstairs suite—and it was so worth it. T...
he space was dreamy, private, and beautifully set up for me and my girls to sip mimosas, enjoy snacks, and really soak in the moment together. My master stylist, Jami, was absolutely amazing. She was intentional, thoughtful, and genuinely invested in helping me find the perfect dress—not just making a sale. I felt truly seen, supported, and celebrated throughout the entire appointment. I left feeling like a princess, and that feeling carried all the way through to my wedding day. I can’t recommend Blush Bridal and Jami enough. It was everything I hoped for and more!
Blush was an absolute pleasure to work with, communicating well, helping us stay on budget, and making it a very fun experience finding my perfect gown! They have such a broad var...
iety as well which made the experience even easier as I could try on many styles to see what worked and what didn't!
This was the third shop I went to on my shopping day and I was incredibly tired by the time I got there. Shannon was so kind and positive so she was able to reignite my energy and ...
excitement about shopping. She was able to look at the photos of other dresses I had tried on and asked really good questions to make sure we were only trying on dresses that had potential to be the dress. I tried on the dress that was the one I had always pictured in my head and Shannon was able to help talk me through how the gown would fit once it wasn't a sample. She wasn't pushy and I never felt like she was pushing the sale, just helping me picture it because the sample didn't fit me perfectly so some imagination was needed. I haven't said yes yet but I truly believe I will be a Blush bride. So thankful to Shannon for not only helping me picture myself in the dress, but also finishing off a very long, though very happy, day. I plan to return soon to have my "Say Yes to the Dress" moment
My experience with Blush Bridal is nothing short of awesome. I went to my appointment feeling a bit discouraged after a bad experience at a different shop. As soon as I walked in t...
o Blush, I felt calm and optimistic after meeting my consultant, Victoria. She listened to my wishlist and my recent experiences and pulled 3 dresses that were all exactly what I asked for. I fell in love with one of those dresses and she hyped me up every step of the way! I stopped into Blush again a few months after ordering my dress to browse veils and everyone was so friendly and helpful. Victoria even stopped out to see me and asked about my wedding planning progress and offered some vendor recommendations. I even stopped by another time prior to my dress arriving to see how an ivory shirt I was considering for my husband to wear looked next to the dress. My request was accommodated without question. I’m so thankful for the kindness and top notch customer service of Victoria and the other Blush staff members!!!
WARNING: Avoid This Shop at All Costs
What started as a dream dress appointment became a months-long nightmare of broken promises, dismissive customer service, and unprofessional t...
reatment.
The Bait and Switch
Initially, Jamie provided excellent service during my appointment. However, after I paid in full for my dress (trusting her pressure to "close the deal"), the problems began immediately:
- Promise 1: Was told dress arrives by May when I bought it → Reality: July delivery via email 3 days later
- Promise 2: Express shipping for $100 gets May delivery → Reality: Still July, money refunded when I called them out
- Promise 3: Owner Colleen would provide solutions → Reality: Circular conversations blaming tariffs with zero accountability
Owner's Appalling Response
When the dress status became "unknown" with no delivery date, owner Colleen's response was shockingly unprofessional:
- Left voicemail saying designer "wouldn't commit to a date" (for a September wedding!)
- Showed zero empathy when I explained my panic about potentially having no dress
- Repeatedly mentioned she "ate the express shipping cost" as if doing me a favor
- Deflected responsibility by citing "5-star reviews" which felt very gaslighty like I couldn’t possibly be having trouble with them
- Scoffed when I requested fair compensation for accepting their used sample dress
The Final Insult
After months of stress, when my dress finally arrived:
- They claimed I had no appointment despite confirming it via text when I went to pick it up
- Staff avoided helping me while I waited
- Jamie pretended to have no knowledge of the stress they'd caused
- Made me feel like an inconvenience after THEY failed repeatedly
Bottom Line
This shop's business model appears to be: make promises to get your money, then provide terrible service when problems arise. Any business owner with integrity would have made this situation right immediately. Instead, Colleen made a stressful situation exponentially worse through dismissive, unprofessional behavior.
Do not trust this shop with your wedding dress. Find somewhere that treats brides with the respect and professionalism you deserve on one of the most important days of your life.

Jamie made getting my dress so easy! She was open about the process of choosing a size, shipping, and picking out a veil. I loved my dress and am so glad I bought it from Blush!
I bought my wedding dress from Blush Bridal about a year ago and just recently got married last month. They all made the experience amazing and so easy. My stylist Molly contacted ...
me before my appointment and had me send over some inspiration for the type of dress I was looking for. I had so much fun during my actual appointment and it was so stress-free. She pulled dresses that were exactly what I was envisioning and helped me find my dream dress. The dress came in on time, the lovely staff helped me pick out my veil and accessories and also helped me with finding someone to do my alterations. I would highly recommend Blush!

d the most perfect one. The first dress she found me ended up being my wedding dress! Molly even helped me slow down and pay attention to how each dress made me feel. I felt super comfortable and the staff treated me like family. They even recommended where I could get alterations done once I got my dress. Loved my experience here and would definitely recommend them!

ted shopping for a dress 3 months before..)
We got very VERY lucky and fell in love with the first dress I tried on- the sales lady (I forget her name!!! She was getting married soon!) was so helpful, saw two pictures of dresses I liked and pulled out a dress EXACTLY they style I wanted- she saw my vision! THANK YOU so much blush! They also referred me to a tailor that did a stunning job and fit us in just in time- I am so thankful we went to blush and everything turned out PERFECT!(referred here by Amber at Janay Beauty)
After a day of going blind with wedding dress shopping, my best experience by far was at Blush Bridal. A large part of that experience was my wedding dress consultant, Georgia. Not...
only did she maximize my in-store experience and help me navigate the very many dress styles, but she took the extra step to text me the next day to see if I had questions or wanted to come back for a follow-up appointment. While I could have technically found this dress anywhere, my experience at Blush Bridal was definitely top notch.
The only word of warning I have for brides is to have an approach to tipping in mind before you purchase your dress. I wasn't expecting a tip option to pop up at the time of purchase, and hadn't seen much guidance on dress tipping with my initial research. My surprise turned into immediate anxiety as I had no idea what the industry standard is (and there really isn't one) but I suggest tipping a flat rate rather than percentage (after all, the price of your dress could fluctuate wildly, but ideally the service is the same regardless of that price)--otherwise you might end up well over your budget!
My experience at Blush Bridal was very good. The whole place, including the dresses, was extremely clean and organized. The staff was friendly and made me feel comfortable during m...
y whole experience. I ended up choosing the very first dress I tried on at Blush and it was stunning! They measured the perfect size so I needed very few alterations. I would highly recommend checking our Blush Bridal!
Ordered the wrong dress. Not the wrong size, the wrong dress! Took 8-9 months to get the dress in, ended up being the wrong dress. I was told they go above and beyond for the bride...
when mistakes like this happen by many people that work there including Jamie the manager. I also paid for the wrong dress and Jamie who actually ordered the dress for me stated I got the benefit of the doubt on the dress I paid for. That ended up being a lie because she didn’t actually look at the prices when she said this, so I looked it up and we called her out on it. She finally refunded me the price difference from the dresses and paid for expedited shipping for my dress, and that was her extent for “going above and beyond” for me. My sister even called because that is not at all going above and beyond by charging me for the dress I want, and paying to ship the dress in time for the wedding (they initially said it would come end of July and my wedding was early August). The seamstress I wanted to use I couldn’t because I got the dress 2 months before the wedding day and needed alterations. Luckily the seamstress from the bridal shop waived the fee for only having 2 months to fix the dress. Overall horrible experience there. I felt that Jamie was very argumentative after she was the one that made the mistake and when I made an appointment to pick up my actual dress she wasn’t even there to talk in person. She ended up giving me a veil that matched the dress after many many conversations over the phone but she clearly didn’t want to.
Jamie did a phenomenal job with helping me find my dream dress! I had no idea what I was looking for and with her guidance I was able to narrow down my style fast! The entire staff...
was extremely supportive and made the experience stress free. I highly recommend shopping at Blush!
I had a wonderful experience finding my wedding gown at Blush Bridal. Jamie, one of the managers was helping me the day I found my gown. I told her my vision and it only took a few...
dresses to find the one! I also found a long veil and hairpiece to complete the look. Blush Bridal called me when my gown came in and put me in contact with a steamstress for alterations. On my wedding day, the gown was perfect and everything I wanted!
Best bridal experience you could possibly hope for. The team is very responsive, very personable, and just SO good at what they do. They created just such a fun vibe when trying on...
dresses, and actually made it so so easy to find a dress I loved. The dress I bought was the very first one I tried on, suggested by Jamie.
Highly, highly recommend!
Loved loved loved my dress!! Jamie was great to work worth, didn't pressure at all and helped work through everyone's ideas of what they saw me in for the day, but most importantly...
mine. Blush in general had very unique dresses and I haven't seen anything like mine anywhere else.

ith Jaimie and she was the best thing that has happened to me in wedding world! I came in feeling super discouraged because my past appointments hadn't gone as I'd hoped and Jaimie was there from the start ready to turn things around. We talked for about 10 minutes at the beginning of the appointment to really understand how I was feeling and what I was looking for and then she pulled the most GORGEOUS dresses!! The selection they had here was phenomenal - not only did they have every kind of dress I was wanting to try, but many many more for others too! When we finally narrowed down my style, Jaimie gave me the best advice for how to compare dresses and narrow down my top choice. I SAID YES TO THE DRESS at Blush and I can't be more elated to say I'm a Blush Bride!!!! THANK YOU to all of the ladies here who made me feel like a part of your Blush family for the afternoon I was in; I can't wait to go back and pick up my dress and see everyone again! And a special special thank you to Jaimie for putting in all the time to get to know me and make me feel so special and cared for while finding my wedding dress!!! xoxo
Yay Blush Bridal! This was my last shop to visit on my dress shopping journey and I had all but made up my mind (aka settled) on another dress. But thanks to the encouragement of m...
y mom and sisters, we kept my appointment here and I ended up finding the dress of my dreams. I literally walked in and asked if they had a dress that matched all of my wishlist items and thanks to Molly and the insanely helpful and supportive women of this business, they did! The vibe in the shop is very warm and welcoming and they deserve all the praise. Thank you, ladies for helping me live out my wedding dress dreams!
I LOVED working with Molly and cannot thank her enough for helping me find my dream wedding dress!

ess. She had me try other dresses to make sure it wasn't just because it was the first wedding dress I tried on. We put the first dress back on and said yes to the dress! It was an amazing experience and she made it so special! Even when I went back to pick it up, get my head piece, and some jewelry, everyone there was so friendly and made you feel like a bride. Highly recommend stopping by and giving them a look if you are looking for a wedding dress or accessories!
I can't say enough amazing things about my choice to work with Blush Bridal. The team over there is incredible to work with. My consultant for the day, Hannah, had wonderful ener...
gy for such an exciting moment. Never pushy and willing to help me back into dresses I had already tried on to make sure I found the one. They offered a great and wide selection of dresses, accessories, and even packages as we were checking out. Can't wait to pick up my dress!
Cassie had great energy and really worked to understand my style. It helped that I knew what I was looking for, but she was patient as I tried on a few dresses that were very simil...
ar, and helped me figure out what worked/didn’t work about each one. She was very respectful of our budget - if I was interested in one dress, she would check the tag discretely and gently move me on to others. She helped me visualize the whole “look” by suggesting some beautiful hair pieces to go with the dress I was really loving. I bought my dress that day and the whole staff was very excited for our group. I’m looking forward to picking my dress up in the spring! This was a unique store with beautiful dresses.
I had such a good experience finding my dress here! Jaime was amazing, she made me feel so comfortable and excited. I would absolutely recommend going here!! The only reason it's n...
ot 5 stars is I went through their recommended tailor for alterations (Stitched by Sharon) and it was not a good experience. She was rude to my mom and she didn't bustle my dress correctly. We paid all this money and we still had to pin it. I'm surprised Blush houses her and recommended her.
Don’t worry about booking a ton of appointments at a bunch of stores. Just start with Blush, and you’ll find your perfect dress. Their team is fantastic! The dress selection is awe...

Blush was my third appointment I had, but my first appointment for this day! I was super nervous due to just having a breast reduction and not knowing how dresses would fit. Walkin...
g in, I was blown away with how beautiful the shop was. Everyone was so sweet and welcomed us very quickly. Hannah is AMAZING. She listened to everything I loved and hated in dresses, asked about my fiancé and of course the wedding and the vibe. She found the dress of my dreams after just four dresses! She made me feel beautiful in every single dress I tried on and I felt like she was just as excited for me when I found the dress as my family and friends were! I am so so thankful this sweet, fun, loving stylist came back from California when she did! She MADE this experience. When checking out, Colleen was just as sweet and very accommodating when I told her I live in Alabama and it might take me an extra week or two to get up there to pick up the dress! She assured me it would be okay and they would work with me! There are not enough words to express my gratitude to them all for helping me find my dress! Absolutely cannot recommend Blush Bridal enough!
I live around 3 hours away, and this place was worth every bit of the drive! From the moment I walked in, I have never felt so comfortable and welcomed! The people who work here ar...
e all so nice and went the extra mile to make me feel comfortable and like my vision was heard, as someone who is shy and quiet this meant so much. I found my dream dress in under 30 minutes with Jaimie, and she was the best hype girl to have! I can not recommend this shop enough!!
I recently visited and got to work with the owner, Colleen. I came in a bit pessimistic because I had already been to 3 stores and still hadn't found "the one." Colleen was super p...
atient and caring and kept bringing me dresses to consider. She listened to what I wanted and tried to find dresses that suited my descriptions. I found a dress I really liked but could not commit. Colleen was not pushy at all and you could tell she just had my best interest at heart. Ultimately I found my dress elsewhere, but I had such a wonderful experience at Blush I just had to come on here and give it 5 stars! I would highly recommend it to other brides.
Jami had helped me find my dream dress the day after Christmas and I send everyone I know her way. From the moment I stepped in the shop, I was more than comfortable in my skin and...
with myself; they’re the best hype crew! I cannot say more than enough positive about these stylists. They’re the kindest people! I would go back and have the experience with them again if I could.
Blush is a great place to get your wedding dress! Jamie is so helpful! She knew which dress I would pick the minute I put it on. The seamstress, Sharon, is a gem! When I originally...
got my dress it didn't fit. My mom and I weren't sure why since we had double checked measurements, but Sharon put us at ease immediately! She made my dress fit beautifully. My mom and I asked many questions and Sharon gave her honest opinion, regardless of whether it would make her more money or not. Sharon is so reassuring and fun to work with. We had a great experience with Blush Bridal!
Blush is incredible. My daughter visited three other salons and just wasn't made to feel 'special'. That changed at Blush! She found the dress of her dreams (under budget) and Blu...
sh staff were inspirational in finding the perfect veil, hairpiece and earrings to match. We arranged alterations through their list of providers and were able to have weekend fittings at Blush to accommodate the bride's schedule. The dress and entire look was absolutely magical. Thank you!
This place is amazing. I instantly felt comfortable walking in and both of these wonderful ladies were so very helpful and understood exactly what I wanted. Thanks to them I found ...
the perfect dress. So perfect I cried, but luckily they were understanding of that, too. :) Thank you, Blush Bridal!!
First of all, this Bridal Salon is STUNNING! It's so cute, clean and spacious. Secondly, Jami is a GEM and an angel! She is incredibly good at what she does but is honest and forth...
coming. She brought me dresses that were within my budget and gorgeous. Jami wanted to know all about my fiancé and how we met, she clicked with my mom and daughter (I'm sorry my mom made you cry!! lol) and overall I was very glad I purchased my dress here. I cannot wait to go back and get my dress! It was very worth the 3hr drive! It was truly an incredible experience and I would not hesitate to recommend this store to anyone.
I was so nervous going into my appointment! I definitely don’t like being the center of attention and have a hard time making big decisions. Victoria made my experience so amazing!...
She pulled the most beautiful dresses, and it didn’t take me long to find THE dress. I can’t say enough great things about Blush. I can’t wait for my dress to come in already!
