I had the best bridal dress shopping experience at Bridals by Elena! This is a local dress shop that came highly recommended from co-teachers at my nearby school. I went to one other dress shop, but ended up coming back to Elena’s because I f...

Until you go to buy your dress, you don’t realize how important the shop staff is to the experience. Elena’s was the first place I tried on dresses and I could not have been more impressed. They were so knowledgeable and knew exactly how the ...

I have very mixed feelings about my experience at Bridals by Elena. My bridal appointment went very smoothly and I certainly found "the one" with the help from my consultant. I found the shop to be quiet and comfortable. I had multiple fittings...

Thank you for the review. Our consultant misheard the bride's name when an older couple came in to pick up her daughter's gown. We are very sorry for your stress and totally understand why you were stressed. Because of this mishap we have imple...

Bridals by Elena was amazing! I worked with Natasha and first she gave me the run down on how they work, the type of colors, fabrics and customization's they can do. Once we wrapped up, she asked if I had any ideas of what I wanted and what m...

Very poor experience here. The consultant was rude and told me my style was so old fashioned that I needed to go to a consignment store. All I was looking for was a ball gown with a satin skirt.
