Bridal Boutique

We used Bridal Boutique for my wedding dress and all the tuxes and we are so pleased with the overall outcome! Bridal Boutique made choosing my wedding dress easy - the person I worked with was so helpful and knowledgeable and asked me the best prompts to help me decide on my dream dress! Overall, working with them for all of our attire was great - they were organized and professional and knowledgeable about everything!

Had a great experience at Bridal Boutique! They made the process fun, efficient, and stress-free!

This was the best experience ever! The selection was phenomenal and the staff was professional and full of knowledge. So many more options here compared to other larger stores that I had been to. I would recommend this shop to any bride to be.

I had the absolute best Experience working with Jessie! Not only is she super sweet but she was beyond helpful on more then one occasion. She really goes above and beyond! I went to two different bridal stores before coming here, they definitely have the best selections and customer service! Would recommend this place to any of my friends who are looking for a wedding gown shopping experience!

Wonderful place to buy a wedding gown, they have quite a few options and styles to match everyone’s style. However, if I spend thousands of dollars on a dress I excepted more than a plastic pink trash bag to cover my dress. I was given the option for a nicer bag but I had to pay extra for it which I thought was ridiculous. I would also go somewhere else to get it hemmed and busseled, my bussel didn’t hold throughout the night and the buttons fell off. Once again, not what I expected for the amount of money I paid to have it done. Lastly, DONT EVER order your suites from here. You get a slight discount if you buy a wedding dress from the boutique but trust me the small discount is NOT worth the headache. We didn’t have full suites until Friday before the Saturday wedding. They were suppose to be in Monday before the wedding. Items were missing, multiple items were the wrong size and had to be reordered. We were also lied to about items being on their way when in reality they never left the warehouse. Overall, buy you dress here thank them for their service then go somewhere else for everything else.

I ended up absolutely loving my dress that I got from here but the experience was not as great. The first time I went I felt no pressure to buy and it was a good day, however when I went back a second time to try on a few more dresses I felt pressured into having to make a decision on the spot which ultimately made me resent them. I really did like my dress but I wish I would have had more time to think about if I really wanted to pull the trigger on that specific dress. If you go here and are not 100% sure you want to purchase the dress, don't let them pressure you into it. Every other experience as far as ordering, picking up the dress and alterations went smoothly though!

If you’re in the Des Moines area and need a wedding dress, look no further! Bridal Boutique was amazing and so easy to work with even during the height of Covid craziness. Monica helped me find my perfect dress, and made the whole experience such a joy!

I had a wonderful experience here. The shop is smaller, but I was still able to find my dream dress! My dress was beautiful, unique, and unlike any dress I had seen another bride wear. The woman who helped me was so personable, and was actually the one that picked out the dress for me to try on!

At first, I was really excited to visit because I heard such great things about them, from reviews and the wedding expo. When I booked my appointment, they said they had dresses that would fit the style of what I was looking for within my budget. When I came in, they had nothing like what I wanted at all. I ended up buying a sample dress, which in hindsight I wasn't saving any money on, but I felt pressured to get it from the staff. They wouldn't let me take pictures of myself in the dress so I couldn't compare it to other dresses I had tried on, even when we checked out and I was literally buying it. When we were checking out, we were being rushed by the staff essentially to hurry up and get out, even though we were still within our appointment time. In the contract it said I could return it if they're preferred seamstress couldn't repair damage. Took it to the seamstress, and she wasn't going to be able to repair it well, and even then it was going to be multiple $500+, not including any other alterations (hem, bustle, make it actually fit me, etc). Took it back to the boutique, showed them the quote and notes from the seamstress, and Monica the owner basically bullied me into keeping it, not at all honoring the contract we all signed. I could've been much more understanding and flexible of it all if everything else hadn't gone so poorly. So now I have a $1300 dress no one can wear, since it's unrepairable, and since I couldn't return it, I had to buy another dress online for cheap to stay even remotely close to in budget. 100% would avoid and I tell every new bride to not even bother with an appointment.

I had a great experience and would definitely recommend any bride to visit. I was super nervous/stressed about looking for the dress, but the consultant at the Bridal Boutique made me feel so comfortable in the process.

Bridal Boutique at the East Village was such an awesome experience. I scheduled a bridal appointment with them at the DSM Bridal Show and it was my first time trying on wedding dresses. I had the most amazing consultant. She was so helpful & listened to exactly of what style dress I was interested in and I said yes to my dress(the dress she pulled for me)! I would highly recommend any future bride go to the Bridal Boutique!

All of my friends that have shopped at Bridal Boutique ended up purchasing their dress from there, so I knew right away I wanted to shop at Bridal Boutique upon getting engaged. I had a great experience at Bridal Boutique finding my wedding dress. My sales associate was so helpful in finding dresses that I was interested in and their selection was outstanding to choose from! I did not feel limited at all. They have a large selection from a wide variety of price ranges to choose from. Additionally, they handled all of my alterations and bridesmaid dress shopping. They kept fitting appointments on a schedule to make sure we didn't forget anything and they helped keep me organized. Highly recommend Bridal Boutique for all your bridal shopping needs!

Bridal Boutique was amazing. After visiting a few, much larger Bridal shops in my home town and not finding what I was looking for, I decided to try the Bridal Boutique. They have a beautiful and unique selection and the service is impeccable. They also set up my tailoring for me and I was able to do it all through the boutique at very affordable pricing. I had a great experience with them overall and loved my dress!

This was such a wonderful experience! I was not very sure what styles look good on me, and I went in and let my consultant know some ideas, she was able to pick out the perfect dress. It was such a breeze and I couldn’t be happier! Thanks so much! I can’t wait to wear my dress on my big day!

Jess was great to work with! I walked right by the dress I ended up purchasing when selecting options to try on - Jess encouraged me to try it on after getting a sense for what I liked, and it ended up being the one. I also appreciated the staff's help as I was going through the alterations process - they were involved and helped make sure everything looked perfect.

I have had the best experience working with the staff at Bridal Boutique. They weren't pushy but still extremely helpful and guided me towards my dream dress! I would highly recommend them to anyone getting married and looking for a personalized, relaxed, & amazing experience!

Listed as one of the Top boutiques in Iowa and didn't disappoint. Classy, professional, and very personable. Each person we encountered was very knowledgeable about all their products and the clients' needs. Found my dream dress at the first appointment and will be back for bridesmaids dresses. I would recommend them to my friends!

So much FUN! The Bridal Boutique was the perfect one stop shop for me! I found a BEAUTIFUL dress, and they also helped me find the perfect bridesmaids gowns. My consultant worked with me to bring my vision to life! No pressure at all, just an amazing experience.

Bridal Boutique is incredible! I went to many bridal salons during my search and Bridal Boutique has the best selection of beautiful dresses. My consultant was amazing. She listened to everything I said and was very respectful of my budget. I never felt rushed or pushed. Bridal Boutique made my experience absolutely perfect. I cannot say enough positive things about Bridal Boutique.

I walked in and immediatley felt off about the atmosphere. They did not have great dress options. I looked through the rack 3 times and didn't even want to try any of them on, I ended up trying a few on because I was already there. not to mention I was just left to look at dresses while the lady disappeared, I was the only client in the store. She made me put on and take off the dresses i did try on by myself and barely helped me at all. the dresses they had to try on we're all almost to small or to small and I'm a fairly average size woman. The dress shop I actually bought my dress at I had a dress that was to small once. If I didn't like a dress I was non stop asked what specifically I didn't like about it because "I just don't love it" wasn't good enough, even if I did go into detail she would keep asking and brought me dresses I didn't like out of my budget anyway. She had a pretty snobby attitude. If you're skinny or know exactly what dress you want and don't have to try it on, like either big gaudy jewels or nothing at all (honestly didn't look at their high end rack because I have a budget), or don't have a budget this might be the dress shop for you but I was severely unimpressed. I bought my dress at Weddings by Design and had a blast trying on dresses with them and feel extremely welcomed anytime I step foot in their store, every employee was friendly, welcoming, and helpful. You'd think you could expect this positive atmosphere at a bridal salon but I guess not at Bridal Boutique.

Angel helped me find my wedding dress. I received so many compliments on it. I would have never tried on the dress if it wasn’t for her. And I want to wear it again! I felt amazing in it. Thank you Angel! It was such a fun experience dress shopping at the bridal boutique.

Found both my dress and bridesmaids dresses at Bridal Boutique. Can't be any happier with my experiences there! My consultant helped me figure out what kind of dress flattered my body shape the most and also helped my bridesmaids find their dresses. I had 8 bridesmaids and all of them picked their own styles and I picked out the colors. My dress and all my bridesmaids dresses arrived at the time they promised and they fit really well. I received so many compliments on my wedding date. Thank you Bridal Boutique for making my special day memorable.

Rule #1- know who your bride is! Seems easy enough you’d think, right? Wrong! They didn’t even know my name or say it once the entire time I was there. This was before she introduced herself to one of my bridesmaid who she thought was the bride... (I was the only one in the group with an engagement ring on FYI) Rule #2- SMILE They sat at their desks & gave a very dry “hello” as we each walked in. The entire vibe was cold & as if they had better things to do. I felt so uncomfortable that I did not want to try any dresses on. My bridesmaids sensed this and encouraged(forced) me to try on at least 1. One of the dresses I tried on may very well have been THE dress, however, the whole experience was ruined and I wanted to get out of there. I don’t recommend this place if friendly customer service is important to you, as it was for me. I kept thinking to myself: “if they treat me like this before I’ve even made a purchase, how do I expect them to act if there’s an issue that needs addressing?” Needless to say, I left there disappointed & will be going somewhere else to purchase my dress. When my concerns were brought up after the fact, they were accusatory and even went as far as to lie on my bridesmaids & myself. Only apologizing after being proven wrong. Be very careful with this place! For what their dresses were worth, the customer service was nonexistent. “Consultant” is a stretch because not once did she “consult” us. Everything was a “no”, “I don’t know”, “we don’t allow it”’ or (my fav) she would just stare at us blankly.

The selection really was lacking. I felt pressured to select random ones because I couldn’t find any I liked. My consultant was nice, but not helpful as far as sticking with my budget or selecting any dresses. I asked her four times if she wanted to help me because I was obviously not selecting any for some time. Overall,I’m felt awkward most of the time.

Don't get me wrong, my dress was BEAUTIFUL, even though it was pricey I think it was worth it for how unique and gorgeous the gown was. But my sales consultant was kind of rude and very very pushy. If you want a dress that is more special and unique and you don't mind it being a bit pricey I would recommend bridal boutique for its dresses and cleanliness of the store. But NOT for it's sales consultant, at least not mine. Her name might have been Michelle?

I loved my dress but the measurements were off by a lot (way too small). Also we paid extra for rush shipping and my dress was still late. They weren't very helpful with that part. The store is nice and the selection is great too.

Sara H. was great to work with! She helped find the perfect wedding dress for me! I would definitely recommend Bridal Boutique to a friend.

Bridal Boutique was the first bridal salon I went to and I came away with the one after just one appointment! I loved the size of the salon, as it felt very intimate, special, and unique. I loved the selection of gowns that Bridal Boutique had to offer, and my consultant, Michelle, was so keen on finding the perfect dress for me. In fact, she was the on who pulled my dress off the rack! She knew just what I was envisioning before I even found it myself. Communication after my dress was ordered was top knotch, I received a phone call immediately when my dress came in (and it came in much faster than expected), and booking appointments through their online booking system was so quick and easy! I would highly recommend Bridal Boutique to any bride in the Des Moines area.

I loved every part of my experience shopping at Bridal Boutique! I felt extremely comfortable while trying on dresses - I wasn’t rushed at all. I found my dream dress and couldn’t be happier. Monica was fantastic! The whole crew is very responsive and accommodating. I highly recommend them!

Bridal Boutique has an amazing selection of dresses, and the woman who helped me was very patient as I tried on just about every single one in the store. My dress was absolutely perfect, and I received SO many compliments on it at my wedding and afterwards.

Great experience. Found my dress on the first visit. Our consultant was enthusiastic and helpful. She was very professional and knowledgeable, but still down-to-earth. We had the location to ourselves with the last appointment of the day, so it was very personalized. Great selection of all different styles. Price ranges were spot on as well. I highly recommend you put this boutique on your list. SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL BUSINESSES :)

I purchased the wedding gown of my dreams from Bridal Boutique. They have a small selection of dresses but each dress is so unique and beautiful!! The whole staff was so cheerful and welcoming that it made my experience worthwhile. They also go out of their way and make sure you get as many discounts and sales as possible! My dress budget was pretty limited and I had no problem finding a dress and veil that I loved UNDER budget. Buying a dress from Bridal Boutique also comes with a plethora of discounts for groom, bridesmaids, groomsmen, flower girl, and mother of the bride. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

Bridal Boutique was wonderful! The girls were very helpful and salon was great. Would recommend to anyone. Prices were reasonable and they offer discounts as well! Love my dress!

All the girls here are wonderful. I had the best experience and found the PERFECT dress! I worked with Jessie and she was so great. She answered all my questions and made my experience so comfortable and relaxing. would recommend this boutique to anyone!

The Bridal Boutique had a beautiful selection of gowns, in a variety of sizes to try on! The consultant, Sara who worked with us was amazing and very knowledgeable of what dresses and styles they all had in stock and was able to help make my experience wonderful!!! I would highly recommend scheduling an appointment to find your dream dress at the Bridal Boutique.

Can't ask for a better experience! After had a terrible appointment with another store, called Bridal Boutique and I am so glad I did it! The staff is very knowledge and friendly, she asked me very good questions and asked me to try on different styles. I found my dress at that day! I enjoyed the experience and I plan to go back for bridesmaids dress and Tuxedos!

Bridal Boutique was the perfect place to find my dress! Even though it’s located in the heart of Des Moines it has that cozy small boutique feel I love! They had a great selection and variety of dresses, this place is a must for wedding dress shopping! Also the consultant I had was amazing, she asked great questions and was extremely helpful!

Had an amazing experience. It was my first appoint ever so I wasn't expecting to find my dress that day. My consultant kept asking me questions to help me think of everything and helped me find my perfect dress in only an hour! I just didn't want to take my dress off. She let me take all the time I wanted before I had to take it off. I went as a family member told me about how much they loved it, and I completely agree. 100% recommend. Note - I went on a weekday morning and had the whole place to my appointment, I'd recommend it!

Cannot say enough good things about Bridal Boutique! The dress selection is outstanding; every single dress I tried on here--even the ones I wasn't crazy about--was more beautiful and unique than anything else I saw at other boutiques. Monica was so sweet and helpful and understood exactly what I was looking for; she helped me find the perfect wedding dress and veil. Truly a wonderful experience from start to finish!!

I can't say enough good things about Bridal Boutique. They have really good selections and knowledgeable and friendly consultants. I ended up buying my dress at my first appointment. I am looking forward to going back for bridesmaids dresses and tuxedos!

Sara did a great job helping me find a dress. I felt like she really understood what I was looking for and was super helpful with questions. Highly recommend

I had a fabulous experience with my family and bridesmaids. I tried on a few dresses and found the one! The help I received was top notch and I felt like my style and vision were really taken into consideration with the dresses I tried on.

Monica was so awesome! She let me try on as many dresses as I wanted and also picked out some dresses I would have never chosen off the rack! I ended up buying one she chose for me!

Bridal Boutique was my second stop of shopping for my wedding dress. I am so glad I did! Their staff is very friendly and knowledge about their products. I ordered my dress very close to my wedding date and they made sure they could get my dress in on time and helped me go through the alteration process. They really made me feel very special and I can't give enough thanks. We also got all our bridesmaid dresses and tux rentals through them. I will recommend to all my friends who are getting married to come to this wonderful boutique shop. - Angie

I had a wonderful experience in Bridal Boutique, my consultant was Monica. She was able to answer all my questions and understand what fits me the best. I found my dress in there and will come back for the bridesmaid dress!

Working with Monica was great! She was very helpful and ended up having one of my favorite (Pinterest pinned) dresses in stock the day I came to the salon. I tried it on and it was the one!

At Bridal Boutique I was provided with a 1:1 shopping experience that I really feel I wouldn't have received anywhere else. My consultant really listened to and understood what I was and wasn't looking for in my dress and was able to get me to try on a dress that I wouldn't have ever picked out on my own. That dress ended up being THE dress. The selection of dresses here are so unique! The service here was unlike any other and I would highly recommend Bridal Boutique to any bride to be looking for the perfect dress!

Great service and good selections. I love my dress that they helped me picked out! :)

Alexandra was friendly to wk with. We needed a dress within 2 months so we bought off the rack. I still had quite a few choice of dresses in the style I wanted, and the dress chosen was not from the current season so was well discounted too.

Bridal Boutique was my first stop for my dress shopping. I loved the great selections they offered and the great service I received. They are very knowledgeable and know their stuff. They helped me find my dream dress and I felt very confident to purchase my dress on my very first appointment. I ended up buying my bridesmaids dresses and Tuxes from them as well. I felt very happy with everything and definitely will recommend this boutique to all my friends.

I bought my wedding dress here about 8 months before my wedding (just in case I needed alterations- I didn't) and they got it in the store by the next month! They were very easy to make appointments with- I did everything online. They have a great selection of beautiful dresses! I highly recommend going here to find a beautiful dress that isn't over priced.

I went to quite a few bridal shops to find my dream dress, and didn't have any luck. Found Bridal Boutique on the knot, and decided to give them a try. I am so glad I did! The girls that work there are very friendly and knowledge about their products. My consultant was Monica and she really listened to what I wanted and helped me to pick out some styles that really suit my body type. I ended up purchasing the one she recommended. I also received a nice Thank You card a few days later. They called me around the time frame that they told me my dress was supposed to arrive. I am really happy about everything and definitely would recommend Bridal Boutique to any of my friends.

What a lovely shop. They have very good selections of wedding dresses but not overwhelming , also very helpful and knowledgeable staff - we were helped by Monica today and she found some great dresses for my final shortlist! We also ended up buying my Mom's dress too. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for mother of the bride, wedding and bridesmaid dresses. This shop has relaxing atmosphere and perfect service. I would highly recommend this shop for all the brides!

They were so helpful finding me the perfect dress!

I visited several shops around the Des Moines area and found the best and most unique selection of bridal gowns at Bridal Boutique. Georgene was an amazing consultant and was so sweet through trying on dresses and pulled dresses she knew would not only fit me, but also look amazing on me. I also ordered my bridesmaids dresses through Bridal Boutique. I will admit, many other places had a larger selection, however, the dresses at BB were on trend, and unique again, compared to the other boutiques in town. I would recommend having all your girls get their measurements in the shop. Even calling in, Monica knew me every time we talked and was able to give great recommendations through my whole planning process! Skip the other boutiques and head straight to Bridal Boutique!

Georgene was my consultant and so sweet. She knew her stuff and has been in the business long enough to tell you how things should be. I appreciated that being somewhat indecisive. Bridal Boutique gave me the "experience" I was looking for when finding my gown. They made me feel like a bride. Great experience, but I would plan on buying your own gown bag somewhere else, same with steaming. I got my dress steamed for a fraction of what their seamstress was going to charge. And they charge $30 for a dress bag - they're less than $10 on Amazon. That was my only disappointment was absolutely NOTHING was included with the dress price - not even a real dress bag!

Monica was the PERFECT consultant! Bridal Boutique was my last appointment of 3 while in Des Moines to shop for my wedding dress, and Monica was the exact pick-me-up that I needed. She made the appointment so fun and she was able to read my style and know what would look best on my figure SO WELL. Bridal Boutique has a great selection of dresses and such a nice atmosphere. I am so glad that I said "yes to the dress" at Bridal Boutique!! I would absolutely recommend it to other brides.

I had a wonderful experience at Bridal Boutique and would recommend it to any one looking to jazz up their bridal look. I originally set up an appointment through their website and they were very responsive. The store has a large selection and the possibilities are endless. I was assisted by Monica who was so helpful and attentive. I was fortunate to be paired up with her. She took her time with me and I never felt rushed. She even gave me hair style ideas that would go well with my selected head piece. Can't wait to wear the piece on my wedding day!

Highly recommend Bridal Boutique!! I had such a great experience at this bridal shop! They were very professional and fully delivered exactly what I had in mind for my wedding day! I couldn't be happier with my experience at Bridal Boutique with Monica! She listened to my desires and every dress she brought back to me I loved more and more. They were able to easily work with my budget and respected that. Very pleased with their customer service, as it deserves more than 5 stars. Would recommend this boutique to any bride looking for that perfect dress!

Georgene was very knowledgeable and fantastic to work with, she helped me pick out beautiful bridesmaid dresses and coordinate suits. However, the rest of the staff is incompetent and argumentative! The only dresses and suits that were sized properly were measured elsewhere and called in. Most of the suit shirts and jackets measured in house were too short in the sleeves (off by an inch and a half)! One of my bridesmaids requested her dress be ordered one dress size larger, but her request was ignored. We had to have her dress professionally tailored to fit! Bridal Boutique staff did not offer to order the correct size, help with alterations, nor offer any discount for their mistakes! Stay away from this shop.

This quaint shop in Valley Junction is great. I really liked Jan the owner of this shop. She was fantastic about letting me pick out dresses and not once did she try to sway my feelings on a dress. She would wait until I had commented on a dress and then would ask if she could contribute her thoughts. She has a great selection of beautiful gowns, it's hard to believe that all of them are so affordable. The owner has a policy of asking three questions with each dress: 1 Do you feel like a bride? 2 Can you see yourself in this dress at your venue? 3 Do you want to take this dress off? If you couldn't answer 1 and 2 with a yes and 3 with a no, then it wasn't the dress for you and she stated she would not sell it to you. This was the best advice I have ever received on shopping and have continued to ask myself at several future appointments. Great experience, would definitely recommend this shop.

Thank you for all of your help in finding the perfect wedding gown. I never felt pressured or rushed during this experience.

I had a wonderful experience at both the Bridal Boutique and Perry Bridal. They let me try on as many dresses as I needed to try on to find my personal style. They never tried to talk me into something more expensive that wasn't what I wanted. They focused on me. If you can, get an appointment with Georgene. She knows how to fit a woman in clothes that flatter and she will make you feel so good about yourself, you'll want to have her come to your house and help you get dressed every day. My wedding was in December, so I also rented a cape to wear for outside photos. They had forgotten to send it to the other shop to pick up with my dress, but offered to drop it off wherever I needed them to in order to make it right. I even ended up buying my veil there. Their accessories are very reasonably priced compared to other places and they have excellent taste.

Bridal Boutique has a variety of dresses the other stores do not carry. Fell in love with multiple dress after struggling at other boutiques.

They were great to work with from start to finish. Great selection, professional staff. They were very flexible with my schedule!

If you want that one-of-a-kind bridal experience, Bridal Boutique is the place! Located in the East Village, the store has the quaint boutique feel with a large selection of amazing dresses that will suit any bride. The entire staff provides professional service and efficient communication. The process is very streamlined from beginning to end and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. My consultant, Lyndsey, was phenomenal!!! Not only was she extremely knowledgeable about the dresses and designers, but her personality and sense of humor put my mind at ease. She was very helpful and had a very considerate approach to helping me choose the perfect dress. I never felt rushed making such a big decision. I cannot say enough great things about her! The Bridal Boutique is a one stop shop. We purchased our bridesmaids dresses as well as rented the suits from the store (all discounted after purchasing my dress - yet another perk). In addition, I purchased my headpiece and veil here. They have a variety of sashes, jewelry, mothers outfits, and flower girl dresses too. I must mention the very talented seamstress that does amazing alterations work at a very affordable price. Since purchasing my dress, I've referred three other friends that have now found the dress of their dreams here too! I would have to say a large part of my decision to purchase a dresses from the Bridal Boutique was the amazing service. I would highly recommend the Bridal Boutique!

Stayed late while I decided which dress to get. Ended up with an Allure lace gown

I loved this store. It was the first store I went to and I ended up buying the first dress I touched in the store. It was the last one I tried on there but the first one I picked out. I felt like a princess and the gal that helped me was sweet and kind. She could tell how excited I was and completely shared in my joy. I was touched. I bought the dress off the rack. I did not use them for alterations because I live several hours away. However, my mother did buy her dress at Bridal Boutique and had alterations completed there. She was very happy with the dress and the fit. She looked beautiful!

Georgine was great! The seamstress that they work with also did wonders!

Great experience buying the dress, but you would think when you pay 1500$ for a dress that the alterations would be free.. Think again! Was an additional $270 for alterations and the lady was so lazy and would say it fit in certain places when clearly it needed fitted! I walked out bawling once so he promised to fix it or I didn't have to pay. Eventually it did get fixed, although It was a smidge loose on the day.

I felt stunning in my dress from Bridal Boutique! They had a great selection of dresses to choose from! The lady that helped me was very knowledgeable and they other workers were of great help as well! It is a small shop, but they have a lot to offer!

It was easy to work with this company. I was able to try on dresses anytime on the day i requested and I got a great lady to work with (georgene) who i believe used to do the seamstress work there so she had a lot of good insights. I went on a sale day and bought a dress off the the rack saving $800. After purchasing the dress, the store was very easy to work with and very accomodating when I wanted to try on and show others my dress. This is a cute, small boutique with great service; I highly recommend this vendor

Everyone there was very helpful! I love my dress and veil, they turned out beautiful :-) I got the dress off the rack and it was just like new once it was all cleaned up!

I would recommend the Bridal Boutique to any girl who's looking to feel special and get one on one attention when they are trying on dresses. I shopped at a big name brand bridal store first and hated that experiene but loved BB. They are reasonably priced and have lots of gowns to choose from along with really nice staff. However, I did also buy my bridesmaids dresses from this store and when they came in everyone's dress was at least 2 sizes too big!!! I even had a bridesmaid who paid extra for custom sizing and hers was wrong too!! When we called the store about this the store owner basically said it couldn't be true, it wasn't their fault and that alterations were normal. I get that dresses may have to be altered but every single bridesmaid was measured by someone in their OWN store and all of them came back way too big!!! The bridesmaid with custom sizing actually had to send the store owner a pciture of her in the dress before she would refund her money!! I was pleased with them until this happened. I would still recommend them for a wedding gown but be careful with the bridesmaid dresses!

This was the first salon we went to out of about ten salons and after 100 dresses we came back to bridal boutique in the east village. Everyone there was so nice and even when we had complications with one of my bridesmaid dresses they were quick to fix the issue (the dress had been accidently order in the wrong size). The day before the wedding we realized that we had not gotten the boys' tux shoes and the salon had one of their employees drop them off at our house. Now that's customer service! As a bride that went to about every salon in the central Iowa region, I can say that they were amazing & I don't regret my decision to purchase my gown, bridesmaid dresses, tuxes, or mother of the bride dress through them. They were amazing.

I absolutely loved the wedding dress I bought from this store. However, after I purchased the dress (which was very expensive) I felt that the customer service I received declined extremely. For example, when my dress arrived I scheduled an appointment to try it on for the first time. The employees treated me poorly by rushing me to leave. Then, when I came in for my final fitting, one week before my wedding they did not have me scheduled and therefore, my dress was not in the store I arrived at. They did make up for this by having the dress at the store the following morning by the time they opened. However, if the dress did not fit, the seamstress would not have been there and it most likely would not have been altered in time for my wedding. It did fit though, thank goodness. Finally, when I picked my dress up they did not even provide a sturdy garment bag that it had been in prior to in their store. It was just a cheap plastic bag that went around it. I figured that since I went to a higher class local company I would be treated with more respect and courtesy. My dress was beautiful and I received many compliments, I just wish the employees wouldn't have caused extra stress on such a stressful event.

I had a great experience and would recommend the Bridal Boutique to anyone in search of a wedding dress! I bought during a trunk show which was a very fun experience! I have to say the staff at Bridal Boutique- Tanya especially-was SOOO nice throughout the entire year! She would call with updates and overall wanted to make sure I was happy with everything! We even used them for tuxedos because they were so great to work with!

The ladies at Bridal Boutique were friendly, and pretty helpful. The seamstress did a good job. I had an overall good experience there except for one time I took my bridesmaids to try on their dresses and it took them over 30 minutes to get us into a fitting room, even though we had an appointment. I just think they would benefit from adding more fitting rooms.

Bridal Boutique has unique collections you wont find anywhere else! Sole Iowa provider of Matthew Christopher dresses.

I bought a very expensive lace dress at less than half the cost.

The Bridal Boutique moved to the East Village in Des Moines. It was a very personal and great experience. THey have modern and classic dresses with two fitting rooms. The staff was helpful, but my dress took 20 weeks to come in!

I bought my jewelry here and Tonya, the owner, was just so helpful. Her staff was wonderful and they carry a lot of designers that the others in town don't. I'd highly recommend checking out their dress line before going to the other places which all seem to carry the same designers.

Tanya was a huge help in finding "the dress". The new store front in the East Village in Des Moines is beautiful. They have a large selection of bridal gowns, bridesmaids dresses and you can even order your tuxes there. It's a one stop shop! They were great to work with and extremely helpful!!!

Loved my dress!

would reccomend

love it

I tell everyone that I can that is getting married to go see Tanya at the Bridal Boutique!! They were soo sweet, and Tanya helped me have the most amazing experience while finding my wedding dress! She was great helping me stay up on the dates of when to get measurements in, getting bridesmaid dresses, and even delivered my dress to my house Friday steamed and ready to go! She also stayed to see me try it on one final time before the wedding just to be sure everything perfect instead of just dropping it off and leaving it! Everyone go see Tanya with the Bridal Boutique!!!

I finally found my bridesmaids dresses at this store. Even though it is not very big they have a variety of dresses and if there isn't the color you want they will order it for you!

Wonderful shop! They've moved to the East Village in Des Moines now, and the shop is really cool. I was treated really well there. It wasn't even a problem that I had my step kids (to be) with me. Beautiful dress from a wonderful store.

This store has a great selection and dresses for every budget. The staff is very nice and friendly, which is nice since I had some unpleasant experience in another bridal store in West Glen.

Very helpful and great to work with

I went to several salons in Des Moines and extremely frustrated in the lack of styles and sizes of the dresses. I also found that the consultants were not friendly or helpful. The Bridal Boutique had amazing customer service and a lot of great dress choices. I was extremely happy with my experience there!
