Brides for a Cause - San Diego

 even my mom and SIL and pick what we liked. They have tons of inventory in dresses and even accessories! I found my dress and vail! While only costing a fraction of the designer price! Couldn't have asked for a better experience and supporting a great cause! 

y have a wonderful selection of dresses and the the prices are incredible. I got my sample dress for about a quarter of the original price. I also was able to get a very affordable cathedral veil. The staff were super helpful and very able to help you find dresses that you may I have missed while you grabbed your initial dresses. The dressing area has 6 individual rooms surrounding a large central area. When I was there there were two to three others trying on dresses at the same time. I personally loved this as it is fun to see and support other people's dress making choices. The sessions are typically booked for 1 hour, but Brides for a Cause let me stay past my time to make a decision on which dress I wanted to buy, which I really appreciated. I would say, if you could book two back to back sessions that might be helpful if you are planning on picking and buying a dress. One thing I will say is I am white and I bought a size 12 wedding dress. They had a large range of size selection with the most amount of dresses in sizes 8-14. I think a lot of the dresses with mesh components seemed likely to work better with lighter skin. I overall had an incredible time at Bride for a Cause and cannot recommend them enough.

and knew I wanted to go there and shop for my dress. As soon as I walked in, everyone was extremely welcoming and friendly! I picked out some dresses to try on and ended up finding my dream dress in under an hour! It was originally marked at $3,500 and I got the dress and cathedral veil for $1,100. They were the first place I looked as a first time, newly engaged bride. It was a perfect place to dress shop and I can’t recommend them more!

hem and the dresses were $100-$800. I had already purchased a dress elsewhere for a small courthouse style wedding. I was able to find a cape style veil that I had been looking at online. It still had the $250 price tag on it and I got it for $30. I might replace the combs that came on it with clips that I can pin to the shoulders of my dress but for the price it was a steal. I wish more people knew of this place! Fantastic!

ssistant manager was so helpful! She let me try on as many dresses as I wanted and helped me search for dresses. She ended up finding me the dress that I said yes to! She helped me zip up the dresses and also took videos and photos of me in the dresses in order to help me decide. This was the least stressful experience I’ve had and is unlike any other bridal dress shopping experience I’ve had thus far. I found my dream dress at a literal fraction of the cost and I could not be happier to donate to such a good cause. I ended up walking out with my dream dress, veil, sparkly belt, and shoes all in one day. I’m still over the moon and cannot stop taking about it. Thank you Brides for a cause! <3

. I have followed this company for years and have always LOVED what they stood for and getting my dress from here felt amazing. Not to mention there was still a new tag on the dress for under $500! Definitely the best prices and best styles in the area. I cannot recommend this store enough.

tch. Super clean and roomy area to try everything on. The full hour was enough time to try on 5 dresses, narrow down to a few and pick the final one for your big day. You can pick them out yourself, low pressure sales, and relaxed environment. Pricing was fantastic, my dress was $350, veil $70, and belt $30. Come check them out!

e, flexible, and was not crowded during my appointment. I had tons of space to try on dresses and for my guests to sit (one of them had a sprained ankle and the team was so accommodating). Despite this store having opened recently, they have a large selection of great quality dresses, all reasonably priced and going to great causes. I highly recommend this place!

e that they are bringing sustainability and philanthropy to the wedding industry. I was prepared to make a trip from SoCal to Sacramento to shop in their store, so I was SO excited to hear about their San Diego location opening. I went to their new location on opening weekend and I said YES to the dress!! I found a dress that was EXACTLY what I had pinned on my Pinterest board. I had major concerns about the cost of altering a wedding dress as I am short; however, I happened to fall in love with a dress that was already altered to my height! It could not have worked out more perfectly!! The staff was so kind and helpful and it was so great being able to try on a large variety of dress designers and styles all at very reasonable price points. They let you try on significantly more dresses than most bridal salons and it was fun being able pull your own dresses off the racks rather than having dresses selected for you by staff. They stock a HUGE variety of sizes and styles of wedding dresses, but also special occasion dresses and accessories (veils, shrugs, shawls). The staff is very committed to helping brides find their dress and making you feel so special as you try on dresses! HIGHLY recommend supporting this organization and I am so excited to wear my dress!
