I was disappointed to find that they only had one dress in the entire store with sleeves and also they didn't have anything less than a size 12 on the racks. of course, they always pin it, but it's just hard to get excited about a dress that is...
way too big. The ladies were very nice, but to be perfectly honest, it was a slightly stressful experience. I felt like they were hovering a lot and also very concerned about social distancing because there was another group in at the same time as us,, so that added to the pressure a bit. It really wasn't a bad experience, thus the four stars. I just prefer to leave honest reviews.
I felt like I was one of those super picky girls when it came to my wedding dress as Blush Bridal was not the first salon I visited, however, I really enjoyed each of the dresses I tried on there the most of any of the other places I went. They...
have a wide variety of fits and styles to suit anyone's vision! Each of member of the team there is very knowledgeable and all were very warm and inviting.
Jackie made my experience of trying on and finding the perfect dress so easy! She completely understood the style I was going for and ultimately helped me pick out the perfect gown. She even let me walk around with a cute little flower crown and some fake flowers from a vase they had in the store - it was such a fun experience!
I would also like to note that prices at Blush Bridal are really reasonable compared to other bridal salons and boutiques in the Lancaster area.
Thank you so much, Blush!
I LOVED working with Blush Bridal to get the dress of my dreams! They are so pleasant and helpful! I never felt rushed during the process and they took care of EVERYTHING from getting the dress in (during COVID...), providing an excellent seams...
tress, and getting it cleaned afterwards. Highly recommend using them to get your special dress!
Seriously, I cannot thank the ladies at Blush enough. We eloped in CO and didn't tell anyone until we got home (we even kept our engagement a secret!).
The whole thing was absolutely perfect and the secret (and later reveal) were SO worth it, b...
ut the one part that was a little hard for me as a bride was picking out a wedding dress alone. Cue....the ladies of Blush Bridal!
The second I walked in, Alanna made me feel like a rockstar. I also ended up buying the first dress that she suggested. Her excitement and joy for me very much made me feel not alone in my experience!
Everyone I interacted with at Blush was amazingly kind and professional. And, the dress was a hit with the HUSBAND (!) and all who we've now shared the pics with.
I highly recommend Blush!!
I did not buy my dress here since I live out of state, but when we hit a literal snag with my dress (the beading on my dress started to rip after transporting it via plane to PA) a few days before my wedding in Lancaster, Blush Bridal saved me ...
with a quick and very reasonable repair. All of the people at the shop were super friendly, even after dealing with stressed out brides-to-be. I would highly recommend them!
Blush Bridal provided an AMAZING experience for shopping for my wedding dress. Their staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Shopping here was magical and so much fun! Thank you so much for the most wonderful experience!
I'm from out of town, and this is by far the most amazing bridal shop!! From day one of trying on the dress, to saying yes, to fittings, my experience was superior! Everyone is so sweet at this shop and truly makes you feel special! Such a g...
reat selection & variety of styles to choose from. I was so happy with my dress, it was literally made for me!
I had a great experience here! Everything was great- the girls clearly love their job and I was able to find my perfect wedding dress.
You will not be disappointed in the experience with Blush Bridal. The selection and staff are top notch! I fell in love with my dress the moment I put it on. Looking at it on the hanger, I would not have chosen it, but once it was on me, I crie...
d!
The staff were always welcoming, professional, and so happy to help.
I highly recommend Blush Bridal!
I loved the experience of working with Blush to find and alter my perfect dress
Very relatable and easy-going, made for such a great experience to get my wedding and bridesmaid dresses from!
I was so happy I found my dress at Blush Bridal! It truly was the dress of my dreams and what I have always pictured being in on my wedding day. The staff was amazing to work with and the atmosphere is positive and peaceful!
Very accommodating and helpful in finding the perfect dress. They also have a great seamstress, Summer, who I really enjoyed working with.
This place is awesome! They are patient, kind, and organized! It was my first time wedding dress shopping. They email you before your appointment and ask how many people will be coming with you, and they assign your dressing room based on the n...
umber of people that need to be seated in front of you. At the end of the appointment, I wasn't sure yet and there was absolutely no pressure. Allie was incredible! Allie indicated that they track which dresses were the bride's favorite and if I go back, they'll easily be able to pull up the information. She also gave me a card with my favorites. Then, a couple days later, I get a thank you card in the mail from them! I highly recommend this salon!
Had such a great experience here ! Went for bridesmaids dresses I forget the name of our consultant but she was great!!! Made everyone comfortable and was knowledgeable about the dresses and colors ! We went to two other shops that day and this...
was by far our favorite ! We did end up ordering the dresses from here and can’t wait to get them in! Such a fun experience for everyone involved !
I went into the shop on a whim with my mom and couldn't have been more pleased with the service and attention I was given. I tried on about a dozen wedding dresses but wasn't finding "THE ONE" and then Alyssa brought over a dress that one would...
not think of for a bridal wedding gown. It fit my vision perfectly and could be ordered in white (dress I tried on was navy) and the price was so very much in my budget. I, of course, said "yes to the dress!" I loved how I looked in my dress on my wedding day and my husband couldn't stop telling me how beautiful I looked. Loads of compliments on the dress from our family and friends. So glad my mom and I stopped in that day! Thank you so much to Alyssa and everyone at Blush Bridal!
My experience with Blush started out wonderfully. I had an appointment in July of 2017. The consultant I worked with was fantastic and made me feel right at home when trying on dresses. I went in thinking I wanted one style of dress and quickly...
learned that style looked terrible on me! She helped me find a gorgeous dress that suited me much better. In under an hour I had the dress of my dreams picked out, a 50% down payment made and a promise of the dress arriving between March-May of 2018. March of 2018 came and went, April came went and May finally arrived. When I hadn't heard anything I decided to call them to check in. The woman I spoke with told me she had actually just been looking into my dress order and thought my dress had shipped a few days prior and gave me a tentative timeline of approximately 10-15 days to arrival. Great news! But just in case she would have the owner call me back in an hour or so. An hour or so turned into the next day, no big deal. The owner then told me not only had my dress not shipped yet, it wasn't even done in production...imagine my disappointment. It's now the end of May and my wedding is in September. Further, she told me the production facility in China was backed up, which isn't unusual and she showed a tentative ship date of late June which put the dress at their shop early July. She told me not to worry though because their seamstress only needed a minimum of 10 weeks to do alterations. In my head, I was quickly trying to do some math. By this timeline, if everything went absolutely perfectly and I was able to get into the shop basically the day the dress arrived for a fitting (I live 3 hours away), that would mean the dress would be ready the week before my wedding. I could barely come up with anything to say on the phone at this point. I was frustrated and trying not to freak out. All I could say was, "But you told me my dress would arrive sometime between March and May and it's the end of May..." Her response was that this timeframe is an estimate. The designer I had picked never takes less than 9 months to produce and they would have received a more accurate ship date once they placed the order. First, how would I know this? No one told me that. I'm not in the wedding business. Why wasn't I then called when the order was place, and updated on the ship date? Why wasn't I called when the production facility was delayed? Why was I told that my dress had shipped when it hadn't even been finished? My mom called the next day, or the day after, and spoke with the owner herself who then told me mom a different story. The production facility was behind because of Chinese New Year. Chinese New Year is in February. Both my mom and I work with many Chinese vendors and this is never an issue. Also being in the wedding dress industry, I feel like they should be accustomed to this and prepared. This was a poor excuse. Five minutes later in the call, she tells my mom that the dress has now shipped and would arrive within the week. At this point I had already bought a new dress based on the information I was told earlier. They refused to give me a refund or accept responsibility for their complete and utter lack of communication. This poor review is solely because of the lack of communication. The people I have met were again, fabulous, but this boutique has lost my trust and recommendation due to the lack of communication. Being in the wedding business, they should know better.
I was nervous and uncomfortable in my own skin walking in to try on my now wedding gown, but Blush Bridal made me feel beautiful and relaxed. I was bummed when a dress I had picked out online was not in stock, but they found me one instead that...
was more beautiful than I could have imagined. I got so many compliments on my dress and am so thankful to Blush Bridal for their assistance and expertise.
Joelle and Mary Ann were so wonderful. I needed a new dress less than two weeks before my wedding and they did everything they could to make sure I had the perfect dress.
I must say that I personally loved this little boutique! The employees were very attentive and helpful. The only thing that i noticed about this place was if I were a bigger girl, I would've had some issues finding dresses to try on, especially...
in bridesmaids dresses. Another suggestion for other brides is the earlier the better. The shipping timeline just for the dress to arrive to their store is 10 months, plus another 10-12 weeks for alterations. Besides that, this place is amazing and I will be going back for bridesmaids dresses.
I had an absolutely wonderful experience at Blush Bridal. Right from the get-to I was welcomed and treated wonderfully. This was my first bridal salon and I am so happy I visited Blush Bridal. I would highly suggest them to others!
The staff at Blush Bridal were AMAZING! I was an "Alfred Angelo" bride & at Blush Bridal they did everything they could to help me have that special moment once again. I couldn't have asked for a better team to help me find an even better dress...
& we will be going back there again for the bridesmaid dresses in just a month, and I can't wait.
Blush Bridal is amazing! From the staff to the atmosphere to the dresses, I was impressed by it all. I felt welcomed, not pressured and my consultant was so accommodating. After I had pulled some dresses that I liked in my price range and tried...
them on, she said there was one she thought I would love and went and pulled it for me. It was hundreds below my budget and exactly what I wanted. Thank you for helping me find my dress! I would highly recommend this shop to any future brides!
I am so happy that I bought my wedding gown at Bridal Emporium! They were so friendly. I went dress shopping the day before and felt very overwhelmed. I narrowed down the style of dresses I liked. They did not pressure me into trying on anythin...
g I did not like. They let myself and my sisters pick out dresses for me to try on. They were very professional and flexible. They pulled out any dresses I may have missed on the rack and brought it to the dressing room for me to see before trying it on. I was very happy with the quality of my dress. It looked beautiful in the photos. I highly recommend going to Bridal Emporium once you know what style dress you like. It was my third time/place trying on dresses which helped narrow down my dream dress. I can not imagine going through any one else for one of the most important days in my life.
HIGHLY Recommend! My daughter had no idea of what type of a dress she wanted. Bridal Emporium had a wonderful selection of beautiful gowns! And to fit every budget! The owner Alyssa was so kind, and allowed us to come in even though we had not ...
made an appointment. My daughter found the perfect dress, in the price range she wanted! We also had bridesmaids try on dresses as well. Even though we did not buy a bridesmaid there, everyone was so kind and helpful!
So helpful - each person had great suggestions and gave input that was helpful. So glad to give them my business! Highly recommend! Thanks!
Wonderful experience all around at the Bridal Emporium. We had a Sunday appointment with Alyssa Kurtz, a young professional associate whose personality wasn't pushy and who didn't rush my daughter at all. The place was quiet and we had our own...
cozy space in which to enjoy the appointment. Mary Ann, one of the co-owners checked in on us and she was very kind. Lots of gowns to choose from in a range of prices to please any bride. The owners do not skimp on quality of dress fabric as you will be able to tell in the lace, embroidery and "bling" on the gowns. The Bridal Emporium offered many dresses in blush, which my daughter was looking for and she was able to find a romantic ball gown in lace that will surely wow the crowd because of its uniqueness. We also found a veil there that complimented the gown perfectly. Wonderful experience and caring, down to earth staff. I thank them all dearly, and look forward to coming back!
Sincerely,
A very pleased Mother of the Bride
So happy that I walked into this shop! After months of searching for a wedding dress I was getting pretty frustrated. The staff at the Bridal Emporium were very kind and within 5 minutes of walking into the store I found the dress I had been lo...
oking for. I highly recommend this shop :)
Alissa and Mary-Ann were wonderful to work with. They paid attention to every little detail and everything ran smoothly. From coordinating the groomsmen, family, florist, photographers.. I didn't have a worry in the world. They go above and bey...
ond and treat you like family. If you're on the fence about whether or not you need a coordinator (like I was), I'm telling you that it's completely worth it and allows you to take in every moment of your day.
I HIGHLY recommend this bridal shop. Mary Ann and Alissa (the owners), and Summer (the seamstress that works out of the shop) SAVED my wedding day for me. Summary of the story... I purchased my gown at ANOTHER (*mistake*) bridal store. The gown...
was 2 months late and I wasn't even sure if I was ever going to get my wedding dress. Out of desperation I contacted Bridal Emporium I spoke with Alissa, she went out of her way to contact the distributor and called me every day with a follow-up phone call on the status on my dress. (At this point I didn't purchase anything from them) So finally.. dress arrived 2 months late and 2-3 INCHES TOO SMALL. The store where I purchased the dress never measured my body. It couldn't be fixed. I was about ready to break down into tears. I don't cry and felt foolish that this was upsetting me so much, but this is my wedding dress! It is 2 months before my wedding and I DON'T HAVE A DRESS THAT FITS. Until Bridal Emporium and Summer (seamstress) provided me with SAME dress in a bigger size they had available....Are you kidding me? I have NEVER had such unbelievable customer service! Summer altered my dress 3 times.. even 3 days before my wedding to make it perfect. I couldn't believe Summer's dedication she actually sewed my straps on at 8pm the Tuesday night before my wedding weekend. Because of Bridal Emporium... I FELT BEAUTIFUL ON MY WEDDING DAY!!! Even outside of the wedding industry, I HAVE NEVER HAD SUCH A GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE EXPERIENCE!!!!!!!!!!! and this is even harder to find in the wedding industry (BELIEVE ME!!!!!!!) It was hard to believe. If I could do it all over again I would have started at Bridal Emporium. Please do yourself a favor, save yourself some time and hassle and go to Bridal Emporium in Elizabethtown, PA, contact Alissa/Mary Ann and they will take care of you!!!!!!!!!!! By the time I was done these 3 amazing women felt like family! (sounds too good to be true, right? find out for yourself). Thanks BE!!!!!!
I had been to the Bridal Emporium several times, for bridesmaids dress shopping, ordering accessories etc. I found them to be very helpful, accommodating and helped me with advice in preparing for the big day. I also had alterations done there ...
and they were not only done well but in a very timely manner. I was happy with my experience here.
Not so impressed. I recently went to check out the shop since I and my bridesmaids are local and pass the shop daily. I was not impressed. We were escorted downstairs in the basement to look for a dress. The lighting was terrible and it had a v...
ery old feel to it. My maid of honor hit her head on one of the lights while trying to look in the mirror. The dresses all felt pretty old and worn. Also the sizing is so off it makes you feel a bit self conscious. My maid of honor is normally a size 8 and had to try on size 12. Another bridesmaid that was with me was a size two and the selection of dresses she could actually fit into without looking like she was wearing a bag was very limited. They do not have two of the same dress so it was hard to imagine what the dress would look like on my different maids. If you are in the market for bridesmaid I'd advice going to a store where you don't have to go into a dark, dingy basement to try on look for dresses.
Response from the Vendor on 08/06/2015
We are very sorry to hear you were disappointed in our shop! Honestly, this review was very surprising to us as the consultant who worked with you, April, felt you were happy with your appointment after recording three dresses of interest for ...
a possible future visit. We have utilized the downstairs portion of our space since we first opened 9 years ago and have served hundreds of parties in that space without complaint. We are sorry our shop did not meet your standards though. As for our selection of bridesmaids dresses, we carry over 200 unique dresses to provide a large selection of bridesmaid’s dresses for parties to choose from. From many who have visited our shop, we understand this to be a large selection in comparison to other bridal boutiques they had visited. We do have a portion of bridesmaids dresses in our shop from previous seasons, but are still considered to be on trend in the bridal industry and still orderable. We add about 50-60 new dresses to our selection each year. Out of those dresses we try to focus a large portion of our selection on sizes that will fit the majority of women who walk through our doors. We understand it can be a bit unusual for a woman, who is a size 8, to try on a size 10-12 to get the right fit, but the way this sizing works is not unique to our shop; a majority of small bridal boutiques have the same size differentials. In the case where a bridesmaid is a smaller size and wishes to try on a dress in a larger size, we do our best to be hands on and assist the party in “nipping” and “tucking” the dress so the bridesmaid can picture the fit of a dress more easily. We understand from April that she spent most of the appointment with you and assisted in helping your bridesmaids with the fit of the dresses. (Please see this article by The Knot which, while directed towards brides and bridal gowns, is helpful in explaining how sizing works at many small bridal shops. https://www.theknot.com/content/wedding-gown-shopping-getting-started) Also, please know, these dresses are tried on many times by different parties and can tend to show wear over time. We too wish they could look as new as the day we receive them. Again, we are sorry you were disappointed with our shop. Your observations are not lost on us and we definitely hope to update our lighting downstairs in the bridesmaid’s area soon. However, we try hard to provide a large selection of dresses to choose from and a clean and organized area with lots of room and dressing areas that are designated specifically for use by bridesmaid parties. While we do feel the lighting can be updated, by no means do we believe the bridesmaid’s area to be “dark and dingy”. We wish we could have known that the lighting was not as you would have liked and we would have been happy to bring you and your party upstairs where there is more natural light.
The owner and staff of Bridal Emporium are so helpful. They go out of their way to make the bride and her entourage feel special. I was about to give up on finding my perfect dress until I walked into the shop. They helped me create my visio...
n from the a dress right off the rack. I would highly recommend this bridal salon especially if you are having difficulty finding "the dress."
Great experience! Everyone was so friendly and beautiful dresses! I would go back!!!!
I bought my wedding dress from Bridal Emporium. I was able to walk out with it because of their great selection of different sample sizes. Only disappointment was with service on shipping my veil and head piece. It was over a month longer t...
han they originally quoted me.
Their seamstress ruined my dress, and the owner will not accept any responsibility for it. After going through this horrible experience with the Bridal Emporium, my advice would be to find a company who guarantees their alterations. The Bridal ...
Emporium has the text "NO REFUNDS" at the bottom of their receipt. The company who we bought the replacement dress from has the text "SATISFACTION GUARANTEED" at the bottom of their receipt. Just something to consider.
I deeply regret going to the Bridal Emporium. I purchased a dress there and subsequently had alterations done by their seamstress, Summer. The alterations were terrible. It took 5 weeks to get my dress back (4 weeks until I was contacted and ab...
out 1 week to get schedules lined up). When I got it back it did not fit (2 weeks before my wedding)!
Summer had to literally squeeze me into the dress. I complained of difficulty breathing. Summer’s solution was to make a minor adjustment (moving the small top clasp). My rib cage was sore for hours after having the dress on.
Long story short, I went to the bridal shop nearly every day for a week – working with the owners and the seamstress to try to obtain a reasonable fit.
After 3 rounds of alterations, the dress was still not right. The owner had to have another employee assist her to even get the dress zippered. I had my fiancé come with me later the same day and he could barely get the dress closed (he commented that he was worried he was hurting me by even zippering the dress). Both the co-owner Mary Ann and the seamstress Summer told me there was nothing more they could do. It was obvious that this was not true, the dress could have been let out more. But I could not force them to do the work (and I had already paid everything in full).
It was so bad that my fiancé and I immediately went to another bridal shop in Lancaster and purchased a new dress (this was about 1 week before the wedding!). They did an excellent job, and I wish I would have only worked with them.
I cannot put into words the amount of stress that was caused by the Bridal Emporium (right before my wedding). The dress was not wearable and they refused to give me a refund. It was an absolutely terrible experience. I wish I had heeded a prior review that implicated Summer and the shop for poor work on alterations.
Response from the Vendor on 06/09/2015
We are very sorry for the experience you had with Summer the seamstress we referred you to. It is very important that our brides have an excellent experience with any vendor or service we refer to, but obviously and to our regret, that did not...
occur in this case. We do our best to repeatedly outline our relationship with Summer which is that she is a separate business entity from The Bridal Emporium. We refer alterations to her and have opened up our bridal shop location to her to meet with brides for consultations. We do this as a courtesy and convenience for our brides, but Summer is not employed by The Bridal Emporium nor is she paid in any way by The Bridal Emporium.
Because we care about our brides and take seriously the trust they give to us, we do our best to work with the bride and Summer on the bride's behalf when asked to do so. As unfortunate and regrettable as this situation was, The Bridal Emporium cannot take financial responsibility and provide a refund for a bridal gown, as this bride wanted, because alterations that were done by a separate business entity, were not to the bride's liking. However, as much as we iterate the relationship between The Bridal Emporium and Summer as a separate entity, we do understand how the referral relationship may appear given the courtesy we extend to our brides for their convenience.
As mentioned previously, we will work along with the bride and the seamstress to resolve any issue that may arise. However, we try not to comment on whether an alteration is beyond repair by the seamstress. Since as bridal consultants our knowledge of the alterations process is general, we try not to make conclusions on behalf of the seamstress since it would be inappropriate to speak for a separate business entity. In saying there was nothing else that could be done, Mary Ann was trying to express that there was nothing else that could be done by The Bridal Emporium on behalf of the bride with the seamstress. Since a third round of alterations had been completed, and because we felt we had come to an impasse as a liaison, we referred the bride back to Summer to continue to work out remaining issues. This was definitely a regrettably sad situation for us as we know it was for the bride. We wanted the bride to be happy, but it was not ultimately within our power to bring a resolution between her and the seamstress.
This is a situation that The Bridal Emporium will be saddened by for a long time to come ~ especially since the bride will always associate her wedding day to The Bridal Emporium and the experience she had with a service we referred her to. Due to this bride’s experience, we are evaluating our referral relationship with Summer and all the other seamstresses we refer to. We love and deeply appreciate our brides and understand the trust each one gives us for her wedding day. To the bride, we are very sorry for this stressful and disappointing experience, it is truly regrettable.
The employees and owners were great to work with. Prices are reasonable/average. My only complaint is the communication was a little poor. Was told my dress would be in 2 months earlier than it actually came in therefore I had my first fitting ...
2 weeks before my wedding. No apologies were offered however the alterations were completed on time and the dress fit nicely. I received many compliments on my dress.
I absolutely loved my wedding gown that I found at the Bridal Emporium! I found a dress that fit me, both my style and my budget. They were so great to work with because they weren't pushy at all and even threw in for free the belt that made ...
the dress! The seamstress was also wonderful to work with and got everything done in two visits which was great for me as I grew up locally, but am living out of town now. Loved that I got my dress from a small town shop and not a chain store. If you're planning your wedding in central PA, make a stop by the Bridal Emporium!
Everyone was so nice! I tried on multiple gowns and they were so patient with me. The followed up to see how everything went and kept in contact throughout the entire process. My dress was beautiful and within my budget! 5/5
I Love, love, loved my experience with bridal emporium! I wasn't just another client- what I wanted mattered and the dress I adored online just so happen to be there! We tried on a bunch of a dresses and I never felt rushed by my bridal consult...

The ladies at the Elizabethtown Bridal Emporium were SO helpful in guiding me and my bridal party to find the perfect bridesmaid dresses. Not to mention that their bridesmaid dress selection is enormous! I am not sure how we could've left witho...
ut finding something that we loved! They even ordered ties from the same company we purchased our dresses from for my husband and our groomsman that matched perfectly. They also came to the rescue when I needed a veil, after not being able to find that I loved, a few weeks before the wedding. My husband, bridal party, and I visited them many times and each time we were there, they were kind and caring. I truly felt as though they couldn't do enough for us. They were so wonderful and I would recommend them to anyone looking for personalized service with people who truly care about your big day.
I went to many shops in the area and the bridal emporium had wonderful service and a great selection of dresses in all sizes. Their dresses also fit very nicely into my budget. They did not pull any dresses over the amount I specified to them...
, so there was no risk of falling in love with a dress you can't afford. I actually fell in love with a dress under my budget! They were a pleasure to work with. Summer did my alterations and was wonderful and again very reasonably priced. Highly recommend all brides go check them out!
I chose to visit Bridal Emporium after reading reviews that their prices were better than other local shops but their selection was still great. I couldn’t agree more. I ended up choosing the very first dress that I tried on and absolutely love...
d it (still do)! Their selection contains many styles and their staff is very kind and accommodating. I would highly recommend Bridal Emporium!
Alissa met me at the door and accepted me and my large group of wedding dress shopping supporters with open arms. She allowed us to pick out the dresses we were looking for (my mom didn't like this - she wanted her to pick things out for me), ...
which I liked because this was my second place. I found a dress I loved and I needed to make sure I got to see everything before I purchased it. She let me try on different types of dresses and was extremely patient and so easy to talk to. When it came down to the dress I really liked there and the one at the other store, she could tell my heart was with the other dress. She didn't push me and encouraged me to follow my heart, which I appreciated. She was so great with my family and the other girls there really worked together as a team. Although, I didn't get my dress there, I have to say that I had a wonderful experience shopping there and would recommend to any bride looking for a dress.
I purchased my dress at The Bridal Emporium, while I was very happy with the dress I chose, their customer service after I purchased the dress was absolutely horrible. The owner is not friendly at all, and she made me feel like I was dumb. I wo...
uld not reccomend this shop to anyone.
The Bridal Emporium has such a beautiful selection of gowns at such great prices! I'm in love with my dress!
My experience with the Bridal Emporium has been wonderful! The women at the shop made me feel so comfortable. I felt as though they really listened to my needs and concerns as a bride. They found me perfect dresses that fit my budget and taste....
The gowns are unique, beautiful and fit the couture look I wanted in a dress without being over priced. I found my wedding gown at my first appointment. I am in love with the dress and truly have found a one of a kind gown! We found our bridesmaid dresses there as well as the groomsmen's tuxes and my father, mother, and future in laws attire! It really is the one-stop shop! I have a large bridal party and the owners and staff have always shown the utmost patience and respect to everyone in the wedding party. I have and will continue to recommend the Bridal Emporium to anyone who is looking for a trustworthy business and highly competent staff who understand your bridal needs!
I came to this place first to find my wedding dress and the first dress I tried on was THE DRESS.
Everyone there makes the experience fun and helpful. They were very easy to work with and they know exactly how to make you feel special for your...
day!
I have recommended them to my sister and my future sister in law (who are getting married in 2014) and they both found their dresses here too.
So I highly recommend this place!
This is where I got my dress and had a great experience with them! They give you full one on one attention at your appointment and offer a lot of different designs to choose from. The people are very very nice to work with!
Although I did not end up purchasing my dress here, I would not hesitate to recommend them to another bride! The service was excellent. Alissa (one of the owners) made me feel very comfortable when trying on dresses. She never tried to put me i...
nto something too small. She was excellent at making recommendations based on what I told her I liked and did not like. She had a variety of styles in many sizes. She also had a room filled with clearance dresses. I cannot say enough good things about her level of professionalism and knowledge of the industry. She never pushed me to buy anything and was very friendly. I needed a larger size dress and she had many available to try on, where I have found many other stores do not carry some of the larger sizes. All around a fantastic experience.
I drove 2 hours to Elizabethtown, because I wanted to try on some Bonny Bridal dresses. The Bridal Emporium is the only store in the Pennsylvania area that carries Bonny Bridals unforgettable collection, which is for plus sized brides. I was so...
excited to see the selection of dresses they have catering to the unforgettable collection. I felt as though I had the perfect bridal experience and I thank the staff! They did an amazing job and I said yes to the perfect dress!!! My husband absolutely loved it!!!!!!
I had no idea what I wanted but the consultant I worked with started me with a variety and read me very well, pulling/replacing/and such as I made reactions to dresses. She even knew how each could be modified and helped me create the perfect d...
ress. The seamstress was great too. They advised me to have her do the modifications and changes instead of the company so I could save some money.
I came all the way from Michigan to get my dress here. I had a specific Casablanca dress in mind and when I heard they were having a casablanca trunk show I just had to come. They even made sure they had the style I wanted there.
I loved the ...
dress and the level of service I received.
The Bridal Emporium was the third or fourth boutique I ventured to in search of the perfect wedding gown. At first while browsing through the selection I didn't get to excited, until I started to actually put try them on. What a difference it m...
akes to see them out of the bags (which is how they have them displayed). The assistant helping me that evening, Mindy, I believe her name is, was exceptional. She was very helpful and really made the experience enjoyable. That night I found my dress. Unfortunately, it was almost two weeks after placing the order that I got a call from the boutique stating that the designer had discontinued my dress. As luck would have it though, they had one left in my size, but I had to switch my original white color to ivory. I decided to go for it. At this point, the boutique was very apologetic and explained to me that this never happens. From there we decided to order our bridesmaids dresses. What do you know, approx two weeks after placing that order, the boutique called me and again explained that the designer had discontinued this style dress. This time, not as apologetic. It was already somewhat difficult to come to a decision about the first dress, so to do it again was not something any of us wanted to do. However, the boutique was nice enough to sell the second dress to the girls at the same price they paid for the first, seeing that the second one was a bit more expensive. Once my dress arrived and I went in for my fitting, the staff member that worked with us throughout all the issues was there, but never once acknowledged us or thanked us for our business, even after we had so many road blocks. It was very disappointing because small gestures like that can make a big difference. The only two things great about going there was the fact that I did find my dress and working with Mindy. It's a shame they don't have more employees that share her enthusiasm and effort.
The Bridal Emporium was the first and only place I went to look for my dress. They were extremely laid back, yet attentive to what I wanted. They were cheerful, didn't put any pressure on me along with helpful and honest. I didn't feel like the...
y were focused on making a sale. I felt as if they were focused on my happiness. Working with them felt like working with an old time friend. They even opened up their shop for a few hours on a Monday(which they are usually closed) because it was the only day my friend from out of town and I could make it. I cannot say enough nice things about them. I recommend them to any bride looking for a pleasant and successful experience. Every time I call them to make sure everything's good, they never seem annoyed. They are happy to reassure me in any and every way that all ordering and sizing and detailing is going according to plan! They have made dress shopping a magical and tremendous experience! Thankyou Bridal Emporium of Elizabethtown!

I found, purchased, and brought home my beautiful dress all in 1 day! My consultant was VERY mindful of my price-point and the style that I was looking for, and helped me to find exactly what I was looking for, for under my budget (my dress wa...
s 65% off)! The store is neat and organized, and the service is personalized. I was glad I went to a smaller boutique, rather than a "bridal factory" like one of the larger, chain stores.
I had such a wonderful experience at the Bridal Emporium in Elizabethtown, Pa. Staff are so pleasant and take their time in finding you the perfect dress. They were so patient and helpful in trying on all different styles. Their selection of dr...
esses are very unique. I did not see any of their styles at any of the main chain bridal stores. They are very accommodating to ones schedule and scheduled me an after hour appointment which was awesome because I was the only one in the store. I would recommend the bridal emporium to anyone!!!!
I had the best experience at The Bridal Emporium! I purchased my wedding gown there, along with my bridesmaids dresses. The Bridal Emporium has such a great selection of beautiful dresses and accessories. I did not have any trouble finding a dr...
ess to fit my style and needs. There are so many dresses to choose from, but besides that, the service is impeccable. Unlike some bridal stores I visited, the workers at The Bridal Emporium are polite and never pushy. They give you room to breathe and make your own decisions, and they really care about helping you find your perfect dress. They also made sure that the alterations were perfect and just how I wanted them. In the end I was very happy with my purchases there. I would recommend the Bridal Emporium to anyone in the Central Pennsylvania area.
I am a bride renewing our vows for our 5 year anniversary. We eloped so now it's our time for the big wedding. I went here because years ago I loved my prom dress from this place. We went in gave them our max price at $2,500 and they told me I ...
had the whole store to look at. I didn't have a certain amount that I was only allowed to try on like some places. I tried on about 30 dresses and was allowed to take as many pictures as I wanted as stay in the dress for however long I wanted. They were so wonderful with me and went out of their way for my needs. They are so polite and pleasant and made my dress experience amazing. Their dresses are very unique and stunning. My dress is truly one of a kind! I recommend the Bridal Emporium to everyone I know!
I met Alyssa at a bridal show at the Park Inn. When I talked to her, I immediately knew I wanted to go to her shop to look for my dress. I made my appointment that day. When I went in to shop for my dress, Alyssa gave me 100% of her attenti...
on even though they were extremely busy. What drew my attention to the Bridal Emporium was their selection of plus size dresses. With being a larger bride, I wanted to be able to try on dresses. Thanks to the Bridal Emporium I was able to do that. Alyssa made me feel extremely beautiful while helping me try on dresses and I never once felt insecure. Once I finally found my dress and I knew it she put me in a veil and completed my look to make sure I loved the who thing. I would recommend the Bridal Emporium to any girl with 100% confidence. Thank you to Alyssa and her mom MaryAnn for thinking of expanding their dress sizes to include ALL girls! You made my wedding dress dreams come true!!!!!!!!
I am so excited about the wedding dress that I ordered at The Bridal Emporium several weeks ago. The owners, Mary Ann and Alissa, were very patient with me and helped me try on multiple dresses as I was initially unsure what type of dress I wa...
s looking for. They asked me about my style and likes and dislikes and brought out a wide selection of dresses for me to try on. I had a "good" problem of liking several dresses but ultimately decided on the one dress that I absolutely loved and that felt "so right" on. I felt very comfortable in their shop which was important to me, especially when making such an important purchase as my wedding gown. I couldn't be more excited about my wedding dress and highly recommend The Bridal Emporium to anyone.
I bought my insanely beautiful wedding dress at The Bridal Emporium in Elizabethtown, Pa. I had a wonderful experience from start to finish!:) The owners Maryann & Alyssa were just precious!!! I originally went there to try on a dress I found o...
nline, but as soon as I walked in I fell in LOVE with a breath taking Jacquelin Exclusive which I purchased!! Their staff was wonderful and extremely helpful. They allowed me to rented a petticoat for very inexpensive instead of having to purchase one. Their seamstress Nancy was absolutely FABULOUS!! I was so glad I had her do my alterations, she did wonderful work!!!! I was so beyond pleased with my experience at The Bridal Emporium and would definitely recommend it to anyone I know!!!!!!=D
I absolutely loved my experience at the Bridal Emporium. The women who work here are one of a kind. I started my search here very early and held off buying at my first appointment because I felt it was too soon. A couple months went by and I en...
ded up at a David's Bridal. I thought I found a dress there that I loved but just couldn't stop thinking about the gown at the Bridal Emporium. We drove there straight from David's Bridal and I'm so glad we did. As soon as I stepped into the dress I knew nothing would even come close. The service is was truly sold me too. The staff was so nice and knew exactly what I wanted. I was kept updated on my order status and the alterations process was a breeze. I would, and have, recommended this place to other brides! Thank you Bridal Emporium!!! :)
As a plus size bride, it is difficult to find wedding gown samples that will fit. Not just that but you almost are an inconvenience to a salon when you need to go above a 14 or 16. At The Bridal Emporium I never felt that way. I had MANY gowns ...
to try on so that I could find my perfect one! The women who own the shop are there working and are absolutely fabulous. Not only did I find my gown but it was at a very reasonable price as well. I'm so excited for my wedding and equally as excited for my gown thanks to The Bridal Emporium!
I purchased my wedding gown at the Bridal Emporium and it was a joy to shop there! Mary Anne and Alyssa are wonderful people. Friendly, helpful, no pressure. They go above and beyond with their customer service. The gown I was leaning toward tu...
rned out to be discontinued although the designer had not notified the bridal shop yet. They had one remaining in my size (at the time) that could be ordered and I was agonizing over whether to make my decision so early and quickly (about 15 months before my wedding). When I called back the next day, Mary Anne had ordered it for the shop so I had a bit more time to make a decision but did not pressure me to commit to the dress even though she had ordered it! I went back in, tried on the sample again and decided it was the dress for me and I would purchase the dress that had been ordered. I was in many times over the year to try my dress on (which they held at the shop for me), and always had great service. I purchased my bridesmaids gowns from them as well. Their alterations are also reasonably priced and very well done. My dress needed to be taken down from a 16 to probably a 10 or 12 and was done so very well on the first (and only) round of alteration. I am so excited to go pick up my dress for my wedding in two weeks, steamed and ready to go!
I am so glad I found The Bridal Emporium. When searching for my dress I wasn't sure what I was looking for. Everyone at The Bridal Emporium was knowledgeable and patient and helped me find the perfect dress. When my veil was unavailable for m...
y hair trial, they sent me home with a comparable to keep until my next fitting.
This shop was wonderful. Their customer service and attention to detail was the best that I have seen. I bought my dress from them and I was also very impressed with their alterations lady. They gave me personal attention and made me feel like ...
a princess. AND I loved my dress!
I found this bridal shop through a wedding expo where they were handing out coupons. The reason I went for a consult was because I was called and told I won a giftcard. I ended up finding my dress there which was a bonus because I won the gif...
tcard. I really loved them during the dress shopping process. They were really nice and helpful and weren't pushy or pretentious. I ordered the dress in April and was told the dress would arrive in November. I had to call repeatedly from November to January in order to find out when my dress would arrive because I never received a call and when I did call they just kept saying a few more weeks. They finally got the arrival scheduled for the end of January at which point they told me I needed to have my alterations started by the end of February when my wedding was in June. The alterations started in February and drug on for the next two months. I had to go back to the shop 5 times for alterations that either weren't completed for each appointment or were not right. The seamstress also had a bad attitude and kept telling me she needed to have my alterations done as quickly as possible because June was a busy month however I feel that they knew when my wedding was when I ordered the dress and should have planned accordingly. I finally got so frustrated I just took the dress and left after the 5th appointment. The alterations were definitely not worth the rediculous amount I spent on them. I only used their seamstress because at the expo they had dresses displayed with really creative bustles. When I mentioned this to the seamstress she acted like she had no idea what I was talking about. We also ordered my veil at the shop and when we tried to use the coupon I received at the expo they told me I could not because I used the giftcard I had won on my dress claiming discounts could not be combined. I pointed out that a giftcard was not a discount but they did not agree. I later received an email and they reversed their decision but the whole incident was unnecessary from the start. Bottom line: they are a small business bridal shop that is great on the front end of things but lacks on service after you buy your dress. Also, I would find someone else for alterations other than going through their shop. My dress was beautiful and a reasonable price but the alterations were way overpriced and not well done.
I LOVED my dress--the bridal emporium did a wonderful job of helping me select a dress and veil that looked great together. I wasn't pressured at all by the salespeople, but it was clear that they knew what they were doing. I LOVED the final ...
product, and the prices were very reasonable!

The Bridal Emporium was the worst experience of my wedding planning. My first impression from Maryanne was extremely unfriendly. I had a scheduled appointment right after I got engaged. I live out of state, but wanted to try on wedding dresse...
s for the first time while I was home with my mother, sisters, bridesmaids and aunt. I was considering wearing my mother's wedding gown, so I brought it along. Once Maryanne realized there was a chance she wouldn't get a sale out of me, she was done with me. That same day I picked out 7 bridesmaid dresses from the Bridal Emporium. You would think that nearly $1,300 in sales would make Maryanne perk up a bit, but only the younger girls in the store were helpful. This was my first "bridal outing" and it was very disappointing.
I chose 2 different style dresses; one from my maids of honor and one for my bridesmaids. Before the orders were placed, I ask on of the girls to read my order back to me and they had it all wrong! Had I not asked, they would have ordered 3 dresses in one style and 4 in the other. Luckily, I caught there mistake. During my engagement, I went out of the country and while I was gone my bridesmaids were asked to get fitted for their dresses. 5 of the girls were fitted, and 2 were not. When I returned to the US, Maryanne called me to alert me that the company who was making my dress discontinued the dress, and only had enough fabric for my dresses if all of the bridesmaids were fitted on time. She said that because 2 did not come in on time, the order would likely not go through. I was heartbroken and it caused a rift between myself and the bridesmaids. I went to another store, and they called the manufacturer and assured me that what I was told was untrue. I told Maryanne what I learned, and miraculously, the order went through.
Also during the process, I was told that the store would ship my bridesmaids dresses to the out of state bridesmaids at no additional cost. When it came time for them to pay, they were of course, charged shipping. The maid of honor dresses (2) were ordered in the wrong size. My sisters ordered a size 6 and a size 8. On the receipt, the Bridal Emporium clearly scribbled a 4 and a 6 on top of the 6 and 8. They changed one dress size from a 10 to a 6 and blamed it on the size chart. Their excuses were inconsistent and the refused any accountability. My family was in awe that they would be so underhanded. It was extremely shady to change the size on the receipt without telling us. I went to the shop to discuss the issue in person and Alissa was very nice, but still did not help the situation. Maryanne didn't even acknowledge me when I walked in.
Our last terrible experience was when we picked up all of the remaining dresses. I wanted to pick up my veil as well. They had no record of the veil I chose, and asked me to look through the veils to see if I recognized it. I left the Bridal Emporium and purchased my veil at a much more reliable and honest shop.
Through this experience, I have visited several high-end bridal boutiques, and not one of them had the terrible customer service that I experienced at the Bridal Emporium. Planning you wedding is such a beautiful and memorable experience. All of my other vendors have been fantastic, so I know how smoothly things can go with the right people. I would beg any bride-to-be to stay away from the Bridal Emporium.
I am a bridesmaid for my best friend's wedding. We ordered our dresses through The Bridal Emporium and they ordered a size 6 dress for a bridesmaid that ordered a size 10 and a size 4 for a bridesmaid that ordered a 6 and a size 6 for the brid...
esmaid that ordered an 8! The worst part of this is that they will not do anything to help fix their own mistake!!!
On top of that I live far from this dress shop so I sent in my measurements and I am a normal size 2 and they told me my measurements made me a 6 in this particular cut. They got my order correct but when I finally received it, the dress is huge!!! I could have been a comfortable 2. Now I will have to pay a substantial amount more for alterations. They are the most unprofessional business I have come in contact with.
Alyssa and MaryAnn are two of the most professional people I have met. My experience with them made my wedding! They offer you more than just a place to get your dream gown. I highly recommend their services!
I love you guys and wish you ...
the best, you deserve nothing less.

P.S.- dont forget your dress preservation after the wedding, they do that too!
My sister found her wedding gown at The Bridal Emporium and it was gorgeous. I was so suprised at the broad selection of wedding gowns and bridesmaids dresses! Being a plus size woman I HAD to check out their selection of plus size gowns and I ...
was blown away! They must have the largest selection of plus size gowns I've seen! I wish they had been in business when I was getting married 6 years ago. The owners were great to work with and went above and beyond to help my sister find her perfect dress. As the maid of honor I found my gown there and was so happy with the quality of the dress. There were over 200 different styles of bridemaids dresses to choose from but Alissa Hoober made the choice easy by suggesting certain dresses because of all the different body sizes in the bridal party. I needed some alterations like 99% of women do and found their head seamstress to be affordable and knowledgable of what needed altered. My dress fit me perfectly on the day of the wedding! My sister wanted a few custom changes and the seamstress was more than happy to accomidate her. Mary Ann and Alissa Hoober were so wonderful to work with. Not only did they help with the choosing of our dresses but they took a genuine interest in the wedding day details. They gave my family their expert advice and opinions which helped us make the day more relaxed and fun. Alissa Hoober personally steamed and pressed my sister's gown the day of the wedding so that it was perfect. Mary Ann Hoober sent her emergency kit along with us to the wedding as a special favor. All of us were blown away by their genuine kindness and concern for my sister's wedding. I am so happy we found The Bridal Emporium.
This place was amazing! I have nothing but great things to say! They had such a great big beautiful selection of dresses. Very different from the other bridal salons in the area! Very unique dresses, which every bride loves! Even with the dress...
that I did choose, they were able to make even more added changes so it turned out to be my dream dress! I walked in there with an open mind but knew some of the details that I did like. They had many styles to choose from and brought out such a variety for me to try on. The dress that I fell in love with was just amazing! (Made momma cry!!) Then I asked if I was able to make a few changes so it could have a little of each detail that I was looking for and they did! They are wonderful amazing people and were so very helpful! I was so relaxed and enjoyed every minute of this process! They made it such a special time for me and my family! Of course we went back and also got the MOH and Bridesmaids dresses too! Again, a great experience! A large colorful selection to pick from and the dress that we chose fits perfectly with mine. I know we wouldn't have gotten the attention and care anywhere else! I thank everyone at Bridal Emporium for this special memory of my wedding that I will not soon forget!!
I went to The Bridal Emporium for both my bridesmaid's dresses and my gown. Both experiences were absolutely amazing. The staff was so friendly and fun! Never did I feel rushed to make a decision and the staff graciously let me try and retry dr...

MaryAnn, Alissa, and the entire staff at the Bridal Emporium were so professional and fun to work with as I picked out my bridal gown and bridesmaid dresses. I highly recommend the Bridal Emporium!
I was actually very anxious going to try on wedding dresses. I was worried that I could not find a wedding dress that suited my personality or looked good for my body type. All the Ladies at the Bridal Emporium made me feel amazing! All my stre...
ss went away and I had a Lot of fun trying on dresses. I felt pampered around them and they are very knowledgeable and gave me honest opinions about what I tried on. That was exactly what I wanted. I actually found two I really loved and decided with the very first one that I tried on. They treated me like royalty and made me feel special. The customer service was exceptionaly outstanding, warm and welcoming. They answered all my questions. I got the dress beyond my dreams and I had a lot of fun in the process!
My first experience with the Bridal Emporium was with a friend who was getting married and browsing for gowns. I knew when I left that day, that this was a place that I wanted to return to when it was my turn to walk down the isle. The owners a...
re helpful and friendly. Besides the large and gorgeous selection of gowns, what I liked most about the Bridal Emporium is that they treat you like family. You feel at home and comfortable as you search for the perfect gown for your day. I also brought my bridesmaids to buy their dresses here, and the same quality and attention was given to the girls. The dresses are affordable and high quality. I would recommend the Bridal Emporium to any bride, whether they are local or from outside the Lancaster County area.
I had gone to another dress shop before this one and had a horrible experience. I would recommend the Bridal Emporium to anyone. They made me feel special and really took a lot of time to help me make my decision. They also worked with my budg...

Unfortunately, I am a few hours away and haven't been able to make it into the store. So the ladies have been so accommodating and helping me and the girls in my bridal party order their dresses. I have made countless calls and every time they are so helpful and return my calls, and also have kept me updated on any changes! They have made things so easy for me it has been great considering my distance from the actual store!

smaid dresses, flower girl and tux rentals all in one place. Business hours are difficult for those who work late as the shop closes at 5:30. Also, had some miscommunication when trying to get veil order, dresses when they came in & proper dress & tux sizing.
i was very impressed with how the sales woman listened to what i wanted in my dress and picked out the perfect one for me! i didn't even like it on the hanger but once i put it on i absolutely loved it. the alterations were perfect as well!
If you want the best service ever with an awesome selection, then you want to go to the Bridal Emporium! I had Mindy assist me and she was amazing! I had a crisis that my original dress was not going to work and i had a month to get a new dress...
... Mindy helped me find something in our price range and let us know of all the options she knew of to make things work! I never felt pressured or not listened to like I did a David's Bridal! I loved it so much I referred my best friend who was married last weekend. Her dress from there was so beautiful and $400 bucks!!!! It looked like $1000 dress! Go see the ladies at The Bridal Emporium you will be really happy you did!
This was the first Bridal shop I went to. As the bride I wanted to make sure I could trust the staff, was comfortable with my choices, and felt the staff cared and listened to me. The exceeded my expectations. I've worked inthe service industry...
for 8 years now. I was very happy and thankful to the owner and co-owner of the shop. I would never recommend going to a big bridal shop ever. They are messy, rude, and totally insensitive. The small shops like The Bridal Emporium are for brides with pride.
I would recommend The Bridal Emporium to any bride. They have an excellent selection of dresses, the prices are reasonable, and the customer service is unmatched. Maryann and Alisa made me feel like family. They helped me select the dress th...
at was perfectly me. It fit my personality as well as my body type. Nancy completed alterations on the dress that made it fit beautifully (being that it was at least 2 sizes too big when I ordered it, that was no easy task). They cared for the dress before the wedding and after. I picked up the dress the day before the wedding and it was flawless. They were so kind to me every step of the way. It's a big deal to pick out this garment (and it can be rather stressful) and they made it fun. Then after the wedding, they sent my dress out to be preserved and discounted the preservation (as they do for all of their brides). Although my business relationship with The Bridal Emporium has come to a close, my friendship with the lovely women who work there continues. I am grateful for all of the assistance they offered for my wedding and I am even more grateful for the friendships that developed while doing business there. A wise bride-to-be would choose The Bridal Emporium.
The staff at The Bridal Emporium were great to work with. They were very helpful and used their expertise and experience to put us at ease. They went out of their way to accommodate us even though we were behind schedule and a bit indecisive an...

I looked at several shops before finding the Bridal Emporium, and I would have saved myself hours, if not days, if I would have went there first. Their selection is amazing, I think I tried on 20 dresses on my first visit. I worked with Mary ...
Ann, and she is extremely helpful and patient (even with the pickiest of brides). She actually picked out the dress I wore in my wedding. She was attentive to what I was looking for, and she found me the perfect dress.
I should also mention that I found my bridesmaids' gowns here as well. They had a huge selection, and I was able to find my ladies something classy and reasonably priced.
Bridal Emporium was the very first place I tried on wedding dresses upon becoming engaged. My future mother-in-law knows the owners and highly recommended them. Little did I know that this would be the shop I measured every one else up to...and...
believe me...no one else has even come close to measuring up to them. They are all so pleasant and helpful. They not only helped me try on dozens and dozens of dresses, they also provided me with various vendors for my wedding and other wedding advice. I have gone to their shop numerous times with various questions and they are always so helpful! MaryAnn is always there to answer my emails when I have questions also. I would highly recommend this dress shop, you will not be disappointed!!
54 days before my wedding, I had a meltdown and decided I never really LOVED my wedding dress. Mary Ann opened the shop on a Monday for my mom and I in order to make sure I was completely satisfied with my gown. Between sobs and apologies, I ma...
naged to hear Mary Ann say that it was no trouble at all, and she needed to make sure I felt beautiful on my wedding day. I have never worked with a group of women who were willing to go so far above and beyond to make sure their customers were happy. If you are looking to work with people that truly care about you as a person rather then if they're going to sell a dress, please make an appointment here! I also had Nancy alter my dress for me when it came in just three weeks before my wedding date, and she made sure it was fitted perfectly on the same date the original dress was going to be finished. Love you all! :-)
I purchased my wedding gown in July 2010, and I am thrilled that they had the exact dress I had in mind. They had a very large and diverse selection. Maryann and her daughter are great. They were extremely helpful and knowledgable. They were al...

f was kind enough to let me show my dress to the girls with it ever being a problem for them. They made sure I was kept up to date when the designer of my girls dresses wasn't shipping on time. In fact they were so upset by the untimely manner in the designers part they decided to part ways with them. I would recommend there services to anyone looking for a fun, laid-back , enjoyable atmosphere to buy a wedding gown !
The Bridal Emporium went above and beyond the call of duty in helping with our son's wedding. We ordered all the tuxes from them and the service with that was exemplary. I ordered my dress from them also and the service was wonderful especia...

I heard about The Bridal Emporium through a friend of mine who had purchased her gown through them. I had been to so many bridal shops, having no luck, that I thought maybe I should just settle for "the perfect dress." I decided to schdedule on...
e last appointment with a bridal shop, so I called The Bridal Emporium. It was the best phone call I ever made :-) I found the perfect dress in no time at all. There were so many dresses to choose from, I couldnt' believe what they had. So I ended up buying my bridal gown, my sapphire blue bridesmaid dresses, my mom's dress, my mother-in-law's dress, flowergirl dress and they even had tux rentals! They were very personable and took an interest in me and my bridal party. I was so impressed at the way they took care of us. It was such a great experience I would highly recommend The Bridal Emporium to anyone.
Since this place was a knot pick for 2010, I was excited to check it out. It was my first stop for wedding dress shopping. After looking at their web site, I thought I'd have a ton of choices. But when I got there, I was disappointed to find...
out that they didn't have a huge selection. I thought I'd give the place another shot with my bridesmaids. No selection at all unless we wanted cheesy prom looking dresses. And the prices were crazy! The staff are wonderful but the selection ... not so much.
