Amazing experience! Yvonne assisted with my appointment & she was phenomenal!! I said yes to my dress thanks to her patience & help!
My experience ar Bridal Trousseau in New Haven was my second overall appointment and my first appointment at this shop. I had called multiple times leading up to my appointment to ...
check on dresses that were available and rescheduling. They were both wonderful and very helpful! I had my appointment on the Saturday after Thanksgiving and Jodi helped me. She was so helpful and patient with me. My appointment ran longer than the scheduled hour (we were there 2 hours) because of her patience and kindness. I am overall happy with my experience and can't wait for my dress to come in!
I had an absolutely amazing time trying on dresses at Bridal Trousseau. It was my first time trying on dresses, and my stylist Ava was nothing short of wonderful. She was patient, ...
kind, and personable--I truly could not have asked for any better! We laughed and experimented together, and at no point did I feel pressured, stressed, or confused. Not to mention we spent way more time than we expected in there, and I never felt rushed. We went on a Thursday early afternoon and there was no one in the shop which was so nice, but I can imagine it would've felt just as special if there were others there! They have an amazing selection of beautiful dresses. I would recommend every bride in the area to come here :)
The family at Bridal Trousseau and Bridal Affection were wonderful! I had such an amazing experience with Yvonne, Mel, Kelly, Ide, and Ava. I would highly recommend their bridal sh...
ops! They made me and my mother feel welcomed, comfortable, and special. We had an excellent time there. All the staff are very familiar with the designers, styles, and materials. Also, what is available because I needed to get my dress a couple of months before my wedding, and they were accommodating in helping me find my dress. Thanks, Yvonne. Also, the staff went above and beyond with cleaning my dress so I could wear it a second time! I could not say anything bad, they are truly a one-of-a-kind place, and I would recommend it to anyone getting married! Especially thanks to Kelly and Ide, you two are exquisite! I can't thank them enough for making me feel beautiful for my wedding day!
Unfortunately, the whole experience just didn’t feel right. It came off more like a business deal than the special moment it should’ve been. There was a clear emphasis on closing t...
he sale. I left feeling uneasy and kind of brushed off. I truly hope future brides are treated with more care.
I had an appointment with Yvonne this past weekend and it was amazing! It was my first time trying on dresses and I wasn’t sure what to expect, but she, along with everyone else at...
the store that day, made my day SO memorable! She was so professional, easy going, and never pushy. The stylist of some gowns was there and he made my day even more special with specific details about the dress and even honored me by naming the gown after me! Such a special day packed into 2 hours! Definitely would recommend to all!
I had a private champagne appointment with Emily, and it was so much fun! I was able to find my dream dress, and my fittings went great as well. Everyone was very nice every time I...
came in or called. I would definitely recommend getting your dress from here!
We got married back in December 2023 and having Bridal Trousseau was a positive and encouraging experience. Both Vera and Yvonne helped me immensely throughout my fittings and gave...
me their honest opinion. They were perfect at communicating and the process of buying and fitting into a wedding dress. In addition, their seamstress did pay a lot of attention to the details of the alterations, which needed to be thorough because I had purchased a dress and sleeves separately, and I wanted two looks for my wedding- wearing the dress with the sleeves for the ceremony at the church and also wearing the dress without the sleeves for the reception. Everything turned out perfect, and I’m so thankful for Bridal Trousseau.
I booked a champagne appointment and it was the most fun ever. We had the boutique to ourselves with champagne and snacks. It was my first time trying on wedding dresses and Jodi w...

Everything about my experience with Bridal Trousseau was perfect. They went above and beyond. Their selection, customer service, everything - is unmatched. Vera was so kind and exc...
ellent. They made everything so easy. I also used them for alterations and their seamstress was great. I was fussy about the alterations and they accommodated all my requests. 100% recommend! Amazing!
I had such a magical experience at Bridal Trousseau! Yvonne truly understood my vision and brought it to life! This was my first dress shopping experience and I found my dress with...
in 7 dresses! ✨ Yvonne was like a fairy godmother during the entire experience. She was attentive, compassionate and patient. Every single dress I tried on was a dream and gorgeous! I’m so happy I found my dress here.💖 Thank you Bridal Trousseau, Yvonne and team! I highly recommend Bridal Trousseau!
UPDATE: I'm back to say that after getting my dress altered- I love Bridal Trousseau! I just wanted to come back to thank Bridal Trousseau again! They are all so incredibly talented and thoughtful. I can't thank them enough for making me feel beautiful on my wedding day! Thank you!💖
BT was my first and last stop shopping for my wedding dress. I had no idea what I wanted walking into my appointment and I was blown away by how knowledgeable, kind, and supportive...
Yvonne was! I genuinely could not have had a better stylist helping me! Often I would like or dislike something about a dress but couldn’t put it into words and Yvonne was able to exactly describe to me what I was struggling to explain. She was able to help me sift through dresses easily and stress-free to the point where, once she had feedback from me, every dress she pulled was something I liked! She was also able to tell when to stop pulling dresses as I was clearly going back and forth between a few. Yvonne made the whole experience easy and fun, and she never put any pressure on me at all! She was so kind, letting me stay far longer than my 1 hour timeslot, which helped give me the time I needed to find my dress! Thank you, Yvonne!

I liked this vendor! I have not yet purchased my dress from here because I wanted to shop around at some other stores first and explore other options, but this was my first time sh...
opping for wedding dresses and I was quite impressed! I would certainly recommend them moving forward and Jodi was great and helpful and customer service was on point. Thank you ladies for your help during a very exciting and scary time. My family was not able to be there so I appreciated the support from Jodi.
I loved working with Bridal Trousseau for my big day! I primarily worked with Vera who was wonderful and made me feel so comfortable when I was just trying things on and trying to ...
get an idea of what I wanted. I came back with part of my bridal party and some family for a champagne appointment and had such a great time. If you're looking for a nice experience with other people while picking your wedding dress I would suggest doing this. When I came back for fittings I fell more and more in love with my dress each time. Their tailor is also excellent and by the end my dress fit me perfectly. They listened to any concerns I had throughout the process and made me feel beautiful for my big day. I would definitely suggest them if you're looking for a great one-on-one experience in a shop that isn't huge and overwhelming.
From the moment I booked my appointment, everyone at Bridal Trousseau was amazing! My consultant Jodi was kind, patient, funny and awesome!!! She pulled soo many dresses for me to ...
try on and even let me look at all the dresses, which many other bridal stores didn’t. Once I said yes to the dress, we were spoiled with champagne and Jodi took pictures of us to celebrate! I could not recommend them enough!!!
Vera was absolutely wonderful. I booked a champagne Saturday appointment with a lot of nerves and vague idea of what I may like in my wedding dress. Vera made me feel comfortable i...

s trying on dresses with an old friend. She selected dresses that fit my budget, incorporated things I said (or didn't say!) about dresses I had already tried on, and helped me find a dress that made me feel beautiful and comfortable. I hope you'll consider shopping for your dress at Bridal Trousseau!
Found my dress here! Everyone was kind and extremely helpful.
I had an amazing experience at Bridal Trousseau! Jodi was my consultant and made me feel very comfortable and confident. If I had questions about different ways to alter a dress or...
accessories she has great recommendations, she also kept showing me styles to try based on what I was liking. This was my 4th bridal shop and I would say they had the best selection of modern/trendy dresses (within my budget) that I’ve seen. I said yes to my dress here and I’m excited for to work with them with alterations when the dress comes in. Thank you Jodi and team!
Vera was the bomb! She contacted me prior to my appointment to get an understanding of what I was looking for and completely delivered during the appointment. Every dress was so be...
autiful so it was difficult to choose one. She was great at helping me stay in my budget, and at giving me honest opinions to help narrow down my favorites. We ended with a champagne toast and pictures to celebrate. Highly recommend to anyone!

eau! She communicated before my appointment and she was AMAZING during my appointment. She understood my likes and dislikes and ended up finding me something totally outside of what I thought I wanted. I said YES to the dress at my one and only appointment!

geable consultants. Everyone was super friendly and helpful. Yvonne went above and beyond helping me look at all my options, narrow down to my top picks and showing me the customizations possible to help me make a decision. She was a pleasure to work with and we appreciated the time she spent with us.

he quickly picked out the exact styles I liked. Their selection is beautiful, and I was so happy with the two dresses (ceremony and reception) I purchased. The owner was very friendly and would pop by to say hello and check-in at almost every appointment. Their seamstress who I worked with was very talented and extremely accommodating, especially with the customizations I requested. Everything turned out perfectly and I highly recommend!
My stylist Zoe was amazing. So helpful and patient! Great experience.

my dream gown to life. I would recommend this store to anyone and everyone! They really make you feel like you’re a princess! They have a lot of dresses to choose from, and they really strive to find the dress that you feel the best in! I was able to personalize my dress and do exactly what I wanted. Thank you to the Bridal Trousseau team and especially Vera, for helping me find my dream dress and for making this experience the best that it could be!
We had a FANTASTIC experience with Bridal Trousseau! I got married on July 8th, 2022. July 2021, we booked a private appointment for a Sunday. What an amazing time! Yvonne was ...
so patient, knowledgable, and kind when helping me find the perfect dress. She pulled SO many dresses, ensured that I was happy, and gave excellent, honest feedback. Even though it is a smaller shop, there are so many beautiful dresses. They were the only place we went dress shopping, and they took care of me for the entire process. Highly, highly recommend!
I got my dress and did all my fittings here. Really sweet small little shop that had some really great brands and tons of trunk shows. Everyone we worked with was patient and kind,...

happy to pick out my own dresses from the racks, but also so appreciative that she picked additional dresses for me based on what I liked. It was a Saturday morning appointment and we had the whole store to ourselves! It was an amazing experience!

and helped me find THE ONE! I highly recommend this place because even if you don’t find your dream dress, your experience here is guaranteed to be great.
I lost count of how many times I had to go down to try on the brides maid dress that was supposed to be finished, and nothing had been touched. There will still pins in it one time...
, the zipper had not been attached another, it had not been hemmed correctly... I paid in good faith for an alteration and it was an hour drive each time I had to go try it on. That would be okay if they did what they were supposed to, but each time was a waste of driving and my aggravation. They cut it real close to the wedding date because of their mistakes. Stay away for brides maids dresses! I should have been offered something off for my time.
Thank you Bridal Trousseau for giving me the most stress free experience! Your store is beautiful, your staff are so friendly and warm. From the moment I walked in I felt seen and ...
appreciated. I worked with Yvonne and she took my half baked vision and turned it into a reality! The first dress I tried on ended up being the one I said yes to, Yvonne knows what she’s doing! I’m so excited to celebrate in my gown and am so thankful that you were my first stop. One and done!

The lady on the phone was SO nice and accommodating. The day I went in, a different lady helped me but she was just as friendly and helpful! She never rushed me or my party, and patiently gave me multiple options for my look. She answered all my questions and even upgraded us to their VIP area! I highly recommend Bridal Trousseau if you’re looking for the perfect dress and service!

She spent time explaining different styles, different available customizations, let me browse the racks for gowns, and let all my guests choose a gown for me to try on.
