I had the most amazing experience with Bridal by SHL! My dress was absolutely perfect! Leading up to my wedding I lost 25 pounds unexpectedly between appointments, after my fitting they worked so hard and had my dress ready again for me the next week! Even with the unexpected fluctuating in my size the dress was everything I dreamed of!
You're a bride with special need, but you don't want to break the bank. Just stop here, you've found the perfect fit. Liz and her team worked hard to deliver the dress of my dreams and I am more than grateful to them. I live a few hours away, but they went above and beyond to accommodate me. Truly, the dress and veil were amazing!
So amazing, helpful, and encouraging! They helped me find the perfect dress and even helped us celebrate with champagne!
I cannot recommend SHL more. Liz and her team had their work cut out for them on my dress. I am much bigger in the lower part than the upper part of my body, so my dress had to be ordered probably 3 sizes bigger in the chest. I then lost a significant amount of weight requiring Liz and her team to take in my dress in the lower half quite a bit more. I was also very adamant that I feel super secure in the chest area that included adding quite a few pads and what not. Liz and her team PERFORMED. My dress fit like a GLOVE. It was the perfect amount of tight in the hips and secure on the chest. I was able to sit and dance and do everything I needed to do very comfortably. It also doesn't help that I was gone for a significant amount of time during the alterations period, but Liz worked her magic, and the dress was ready and perfect with several weeks to spare. The pricing for the alterations was also extremely good. Liz also made it clear that she will make sure I love the dress before I take it home and she was true to her word!
Liz custom made my entire wedding dress! I met her at a vendor show and told her what I liked what I didn’t like and had said there’s so many dresses that I enjoy but I want to change so many things about them, so she suggested to go to custom route, and turns out it was actually cheaper to go to custom route that it was to buy a dress off the rack and then alter it the way I want. Liz worked with me for almost a year before my wedding to design it and made it exactly how I wanted to have the dress fit! I have more of an athletic build, and wanted the straps to be more up on my shoulders, like a sports bra, compared to most of the dresses that are on the outside part of your shoulders , but I also still wanted a deep V-neck in the front and the back to show off my back, Liz did just this! She was absolutely perfect and I never had any hesitation with working with her. She also let me pick out all of the fabrics and every little detail that went into my dress, but I did ask her for her creative style as well on some things, because I am not the most knowledgeable when it comes to fashion , I have grown to become great friends with Liz and cannot thank her enough for being able to be real with me throughout this whole process and also to be a calming person to have on my side.
I can’t recommend Bridal by SHL enough. From the atmosphere and the people, to the dresses and the prices; it’s all a dream. I just picked up my wedding dress today, which was in budget including alterations, and it was so bittersweet. It felt AMAZING to finally be in my dress and taking it home but so sad to not have a for sure reason to come back! Liz and team are more than I could have ever asked for. They were helpful, down to earth, kind, you name it. If you need a dress or anything just go. You won’t regret it, I promise. (Will add photos after the wedding)
