They are fantastic!!!

She said she knew that when she pulled a specific dress that it was going to be MY dress and she was right! I am so thankful for the BBY team in helping me find my dream dress and putting me one step closer to my ‘I do’!

finding a dress in a normal salon that was pretty and flattering on my body type. ALL these dresses were made for real bodies and were so gorgeous!

l judged for my size. I quickly learned that would not be my experience at Brides By Young. My appointment started with a quick Q&A around my dress preferences, as well as how I envision my day. They also inquired about my budget, and I appreciate their discretion in pulling me away from my guests when they asked me this. After the Q&A, they pulled me several dresses as a starting place. They took me into a spacious try-on area and helped me into one of their specialty bras. After that, they helped me into each dress and made me feel super comfortable throughout the process. They did a phenomenal job clipping the dress to reflect what it will look like when its actually my size. They also did a phenomenal job helping me see the full vision, including straps that I was adding onto the dress, my veil, etc. I dress shopped in early June of 2022 and my dress was in by late November of 2022. My residence is in California, but my wedding is in Indiana (as is my family) and they were super accommodating to my schedule-- including trying to get my dress in to try on when I'm here for the holidays, as well as giving me some extra time to pick it up after it arrived so I didn't need to plan a separate trip. At the dress pickup-- I was BEAMING. Everything turned out perfectly. I felt beautiful and the associates further enforced that with their kindness, as well. I never felt like I was working with a "salesman" or that they were trying to up-sell me, which I really appreciated. All throughout the process, I mostly communicated with Kate for appointments, etc. and she was an absolute delight. She was so friendly and helpful and had a way of making me feel like I had known her for years. This anxious bride truly appreciated how comfortable she and the other associates made me! They unfortunately do not do alterations in-house, but they provided a recommendation nearby and gave me information as to what to expect in terms of timing, etc., as well as recommendations as to some areas I may want to alter. Overall-- I could not have asked for a better place to choose the most important dress I'll ever wear. So appreciative that despite my size, I had a place to find a dress and shop that made me feel beautiful and WORTHY of such a gorgeous dress.

o my likes and dislikes and the vibe of my wedding and provided beautiful dress options. I did say yes to the dress! Thank you Bailey and Brides by Young for making this special day relaxing, easy and fun!

ant and only pull dresses that are in the realm. I highly recommend them!

t all! The staff were great from start to finish and I did end up buying my dress here! I absolutely recommend going here if you’re a plus sized bride!

ld recommend them 100 times over.

le about everything. They helped me find my dream dress and made sure it was in my budget! I would 100% recommend Brides by Young!

on anything and just look at the gowns. A complete shock when Emily pulled 7-8 dresses for me… then I was never expecting to actually find my dress this soon. The first dress was perfect! But baby that second dress made me cry! I didn’t want to take it off. We tried on 3 more dresses( all drop dead gorgeous) but baby that second dress is my dress, nothing compared to that feeling at all. Please go here, make the appointment, call, look at their Instagram, and go! My family and I drove from Detroit Mi to Indianapolis In and it was 100000000000% worth it! I didn’t want to leave my dress. All of the ladies there are absolutely amazing. All of the plus size shopping anxiety quickly melted away! No sad tears afterwards just happy blissful tears. Please go here!!!! Find a way! They have 3 locations! FIND A WAY!!!!

about how dress shopping would go as a plus size bride, but it was breeze!

also there and were amazing as well.

sses. This was my first time trying on wedding dresses, and I would not have changed a thing.

ress search! We kept saying what an amazing problem it was to have when it came down to choosing between two stunning dresses that Emmeline guided us toward. Thank you thank you THANK YOU to everyone at the Indy location, and especially to Emmeline who went above and beyond for me.

at everyone with me said would look best. The dress I said yes to, I kept putting it off to be my third dress to try on. When I put it on, everyone in the building stopped and looked at me. And just were at a loss of words. This place was a true blessing when it came to dress shopping. No reason to be stressed at all lol

erent than what I said I wanted but they ended up being amazing as well. I tried on 5 dresses and left with my wedding dress! The best experience.

and dislikes, she was extremely knowledgeable, and helped me find the PERFECT dress for my wedding day. We took a dress that I loved and put it with a body suit to get the 100% look I wanted. I had to drive 4 hours one way to get to Brides by Young and it was absolutely worth it. I can’t recommended them enough!

y went!

d everything I wanted even the parts that I didn't fully know myself. She is so much fun to be around and will keep you smiling the whole time. We pulled a few dresses together, but she also surprised me, and we ultimately found my ultimate dream dress for the wedding of my Pride & Prejudice dreams. I think even Mr. Darcy himself would swoon. I never thought that I would look in a mirror and call myself beautiful, but Haley made that happen. Thank you Brides By Young. And thank you especially to Haley. You made my wedding complete.

th help from Kate. I traveled all the way from South Carolina and found my dress! Excellent, professional and knowledgeable staff who were so much fun to shop with! Book your appointment now, plus size bride! You won’t be sorry!

to David’s Bridal before and had the WORST experience! Definitely recommend Brides by Young!

bined them into the perfect one! I knew it was the one for me. So happy I came here with all the options they had!

n!!!

it! The dresses do run at a higher price point, but the quality and expertise are WELL worth it!

ideal dress would be, all while respecting our budget! The whole dress fitting experience caused me a little anxiety due to my curvier body type, but all of these anxieties were put to rest during the appointment process and I felt as though all of the dresses I tried on were made to fit people like me, because they were! I will recommend Brides by Young for curvy brides over and over again!!

erwhelmed.

! 10/10!!!

e as well.

moment I walked in, I felt supported. Kate listened to my wants and needs and delivered a perfect dress. I loved that the salon was small and not jam packed full of other people. I could not recommend Brides by Young any more highly!

dress here. They called me a few weeks later asking how shopping had been going which I was honest and said it hadn’t been going well, nearly in tears to which the consultant replied that she would love to have me back in the store but there’s a $150 fee which she would ‘try to waive’ but if not it would apply to the dress if I purchased one at their salon. I just struggle with the idea of charging a bride to try on more dresses at the largest local plus size salon.. don’t get me wrong, I know their time is important but I also think if they were sincere about caring for the bride, especially plus size brides who have the odds stacked against them, they wouldn’t have the fees in place.. or at the bare minimum mention them before scheduling the first appointment so the bride is aware it’s basically do or die on this one shot.

pertaining to the wedding and our ideas for the day. She asked about what my vision was for my dress and the first one she put me in hit it perfectly. We went ahead and tried on other styles and fabrics, too, though. She puts you at ease through your entire appointment and doesn't make you feel rushed. She acted as if we could've been there all day and it would've been okay. Thankfully it didn't take all day lol. The first dress I tried on was the one. We put it on one last time and she made me feel like a princess. Did a little to my hair for the veil and added a hair piece. She truly thinks of everything from the big things to the small things. Oh, and when she takes in the waist to see as close to a perfect fit as possible? Girl, she snatches it. 😂

lly cared. I would recommend them to any bride any time.

she pulled 3 amazing dresses and it was so hard to choose between the 3. She asked the right questions to narrow it down, and I made the best decision at the first place I looked! Dress shopping is funny. You think you know what you want, and then you get there and into your first dress and it’s absolutely not what I expected. Everyone has their own experience and this was a special one thanks to Brides by Young!

ecommend this shop a million times!

with the veil. Game changer!! I’ve always told myself I would have my hair down, but she showed me how beautiful it looked up! 100% recommend Brides by Young.

at fit me! The staff was wonderful. They listened to what I had to say and helped me to find the dress of my dreams. I could not recommend them enough.

, and was worried about dress shopping due to this. She took all those worries and just washed them away! She used me curves and just made me feel absolutely BEAUTIFUL in my skin. I found the perfect dress for me, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience I had!

found me the perfect dress in a style that was just so "me" I despise trying on any type of clothing but I really loved trying on dresses here. Excellent experience and I'll recommend to anyone who asks!
