Excellent! They were very attentive and caring. Jenn and Carole both pulled out different styles and shapes. I knew when I found my dream dress. My mom and I cried. I didn’t want to take it off! Alterations were done perfect and reasonable
My experience at Burtons was amazing! Carole helped me find the perfect dress, and the entire process, from saying yes to fittings to preserving my dress, has been a dream! I can’t say enough about how kind and down-to-earth this shop is. If you are in need of a dress, look no further. I will be sending all of my friends and family here in the future.
I am so happy I got my wedding dress from Burton’s Bridals! They were wonderful to work with. A cozy, family-owned shop, it may seem small at first glance, but don’t be fooled! Their selection is extensive, and they only do one appointment at a time so you get really personalized attention. Their in-house seamstress is excellent, and they cap their basic alterations (hem, bustle, fitting) at a very reasonable price, which is amazing. They’ll also hold onto your dress for you in the shop if it arrives early, which was so helpful for me since I had nowhere to hide/store it safely and unseen for weeks. I had a specific vision for my dress, but they understood it and delivered! I wanted to add custom straps and appliques and put pearls down the back instead of buttons, and everything came out better than I could’ve imagined. I was also a bit anxious about getting the hem right so I wouldn’t be stepping on it and tripping all night, but they NAILED it. The bustle was lovely too; the skirt didn’t drag or get stepped on by anyone or anything. For the entire 10+ hours I had my dress on, I was comfortable, felt great, looked great, could move/walk/dance/sit etc without thinking about it, and I got a million compliments. My wedding day was truly wonderful, and a big part of that was being in just the right dress for me. Looking for your wedding dress is exciting and daunting all at once, but you can trust Burton’s with your wedding day vision, they got you!
I looked at 12 different bridal salons and found the most amazing dress at Burton's. It fit like a glove and was a great price. I am very very satisfied with my experience and would recommend looking for your dress here.
Great experience. Carole and her team were so helpful and honest! I was so excited to say yes and even more excited to wear my perfect dress!
I had a great experience at Burtons ! It was my first appointment and I never expected to choose a dress that day, but I fell in love ! It was definitely a great experience and I am so glad I said “Yes” . Loved my dress.
I was so nervous about finding the perfect dress. Walked into Burtons and immediately felt like I was home . It is a great small shop. They have a lot of dresses to choose from and personal service! From start to wedding day everything was perfect!
Great experience! Went in not positive of what I wanted . I tried on a dress Carole suggested and feel in love ! I didn’t want to take it off. Alterations were perfect and very reasonable. Best experience
What a great experience from start to finish! My dress and mom’s dress were perfect ! Thank you again to Carole and her team. You made the whole process so fun and easy. I received so many compliments on my dress
I just wanted to thank you so much for helping me pick out the perfect dress! I had such a wonderful experience . I will recommend you to everyone! Your patience is incredible.
I cannot say enough good things about Burtons. They calmed my nerves about finding the perfect dress. They were easy to talk to. Listened to my wants. Found me the perfect dress. I loved my dress and this store! Thank you again for making it so much fun!
Great experience. Carole and her staff were wonderful . Friendly ,fun and extremely knowledgeable about bridal and moms ! Thanks for making my day even more special!
Great experience at Burtons . Carole and Jenn were patient and honest. I can’t believe I found my dress on the first day! I stayed in my budget. They knew the perfect style for me ! If I could give them 10 stars I would!
I had the best experience at Burtons Bridals. Carole made me so comfortable and really listened to what I wanted. I found the perfect dress!
Wow I’m so glad my friends recommended Burtons Bridals! I had an amazing experience. Carole and her team found me the perfect gown ! Alterations were perfect and reasonably priced . This place is a hidden gem!!
had a beyond exceptional experience with Burton Bridals! From the moment I walked in I felt immediately attended to by Carole. She is patient, helped guide me on my purchases and is incredibly knowledgeable on all things wedding dresses. The shop is deceiving as it doesn't appear to be that large yet every piece was stunning. The prices are reasonable. Over the course of my purchase, I visited the shop at least 4x for fittings. Carole is flexible and does not shy away from communication. By the time I picked up my dress, I felt like family! I can't recommend this shop enough. If you want a seamless, fun, worry free experience choose Burton's.
Burton's is not your typical bridal salon, but you get a very personalized attention and experience there. The owner was very knowledgeable and really worked within my style and budget. I didn't feel pressured to buy my dress that moment, and the alterations capped out at 300 (pre any tax) which compared to a lot of places was super reasonable! The dress I found was perfect and everyone knew right away.
In the search for my dress, I visited at least 5 bridal shops, all of which I thoroughly researched and read countless reviews on. Burtons had its share of negative reviews, and those were mostly complaints about the owner; how she wasn’t accommodating or she was rude, or didn’t have the particular dress they were looking for, or some other nonsense us brides complain about. I considered all that before booking my appointment but decided to check it out regardless. I have ABSOLUTELY no regrets for choosing Burtons and trusting Carole and her team for my wedding gown! My first visit to Burtons I did not find my dress. But at that visit Carole told me if I found a dress elsewhere but thought the price was high or alterations were pricey, to check with her, she may be able to give me a better price and that her alterations capped at $300. I did find a dress elsewhere that I couldn’t stop thinking about but didn’t love the shop where I found it. I decided to call Carole and see if she had that dress in stock. She didn’t. But she looked to see if she could get it elsewhere for me to try on. At that time she couldn’t. But she could order it for me if I wanted it. And the price she told me (not knowing the price of the dress from the other shop) was almost $400 less! I wasn’t ready just yet to make that call. I really wanted to try it on once more to be sure. About 3 weeks went by and the more I thought about that dress, I wanted it. I called Carole back and was ready to order it. This time she found somewhere she could borrow the dress from for me to try on. Even better! She found time for me on a busy weekend to come in and try on. Needless to say, I said yes to the dress at Burtons and every experience there after with Carole and her team was fantastic! Ordering, alterations, and pick-up were all seamless! I also needed my step-daughters dresses (ordered from Azazie) altered and she took care of that as well for us! Fast forward to post wedding, I have a photo re-shoot with our photographer. I reached out to Carole for advice whether I should get it cleaned prior to the re-shoot. She gave me her opinion and even offered that if the dress needed anything at all to let her know and she’d take care of it. She didn’t have to offer that, but she did and that again showed me how much she truly cared about her brides! So, take negative reviews with a grain of salt and know that those experiences are not shared by all. I don’t think I could have had a better experience when it came to my dress. I 1000% recommend Carole and her team at Burtons Bridal!

Shopping at Burtons for my wedding dress was a great experience. Unlike other bridal salons, I was able to try on as many dresses as I wanted, there were many styles to choose from, and the sizes of the dresses off the rack were not too big or small so I can actually see how the dress would fit when it was tailored. The dresses were also priced well and I didn’t have to go over my budget to find something beautiful. I received so many compliments about the dress on the wedding day and I felt so beautiful in it.
If I could give 0 stars I would. I came here looking for bridesmaids dresses for my bridal party. From the moment I walked in with my bridesmaids we were treated rudely. I’m not sure if it was the owner who greeted us or an employee but she was extremely unfriendly. I told her that I had an appointment to look at bridesmaids dresses and she pointed to be a rack that had bridesmaids dresses. She seemed uninterested and had no intention of helping us. My bridesmaids went to look at the selection and it was a complete mess. Not a single person helped us look at dresses, no one helped us when my bridesmaids were trying on dresses and they made it very clear that the bride who was there at the same time was much more important than my girls looking for bridesmaids dresses even though we had an appointment also. I should have never even had my bridesmaids try on any dresses after our experience but they did end up trying on a few dresses. I actually very much liked one of them and would have considered it if I didn’t have such a horrible experience.
My daughter got her wedding dress from burtons and it was beautiful. Carol and her staff were very helpful and patient and made sure everything was perfect!
I’d highly recommend Carole and Burtons bridal! She was so helpful and supportive throughout and got me my dream dress! The alteration process couldn’t have gone better and my bridal attendant even commented that the bustle on my dress was the best she’d ever seen after years in the industry!
Carole and her crew are amazing! They work around your schedule and help you find almost any dress you desire!
After booking with the Flowers by Burton florist, my Mom and I decided on a whim to go upstairs and browse the bridal gowns. The owner, Carole, said she was waiting for another bride to come in, but said my Mom and I could come back on an hour. Prior to this I had been to 4 salons and either didn’t love the gowns or had terrible experiences. An hour later I told Carole what I was looking for and I found “my dress” on the third one I tried on. I didn’t fell pressured to buy it on the spot and she understood that I needed to bring my MOH, MIL, and Dad to see it before making a decision. My dress came in a month before I expected it to and while I was nervous to have their in-house seamstress do the alterations (I’ve read very mixed reviews on them here) I’m SO HAPPY I did! I have an extremely large chest so I had to order a dress about 4/5 sizes larger than I normally would and had to get it taken in everywhere else. I’m also 5 foot tall so you can only imagine the amount of alterations that needed to be done. The seamstress was flawless! I went for a total of 3 fittings and everything fit perfectly and I was even more Impressed that the look of the dress was exactly the same with all of the alterations that were done to it!
Picking my dream dress was the most difficult task while planning for my wedding. Carol and her staff helped make this difficult task become a wonderful and joyful task. They helped me to remain focused and guided me to the perfect dress. They were attentive, patient, and knowledgeable. From the moment to yes to the dress to the fittings to final pick up, it was an excellent experience. They were so professional and friendly throughout the process. My bridesmaids, mother, and mother in law were all so happy with their dresses and so pleased with the impeccable alterations. Thank you Burton Bridal for being part of my special day and making me feel like the most beautiful bride in the most beautiful dress!
Honestly wasn't a fan of the attitude. As soon as my dress was purchased getting any information was like pulling teeth and it kept getting delayed and no one would tell me until I called. My dress was beautiful but I had it altered elsewhere (Bridal Suite of Centereach who was amazing), and wish I would have gone with a different place entirely. There are far better places to spend your money.
There isn’t enough words to describe how much i honestly LOVE Burtons. I got my flowers, wedding dress, veil, bridesmaid dresses and my mother’s gown from them. From my very first phone call with Brittany to my final dress fitting appointment with their incredible stream stress Saveria, everything was seamless. Carol is the owner, she goes above and beyond for all her brides to make sure their happy. I had tried on SO many dresses and i was scared i wouldn’t be able to find “the one” but carol put me in a dress i wouldn’t have picked for myself and i fell. In. Love. She really knows what she’s doing. (Bc she’s been doing it for YEARS) I literally cried and hugged them all at my last visit bc i was going to miss going there, they were such a huge part of my wedding planning process. The whole team there is incredible and has been doing this for years. My dress fit me like a glove, my mother’s dress was perfect and all my girls had a great experience. If you find a dress someplace else they will do everything they can to get it for you AND at a better price then anyplace else. Truly a one stop shop for dress and flower needs. My flowers were BEAUTIFUL, everything i envisioned and prices that can’t be beat. Using them was 100% the best decision i made and as the bride, we need to make a lot! Don’t walk, RUN here!
I got my wedding dress and all of my bridesmaid dresses from Burton's Bridals and I am so happy with my choice! Everyone was so patient and helpful when I was trying on different wedding dresses. The dress fittings were so easy and my dress was perfect and ready when I came to pick it up before the wedding. I HIGHLY recommend!
Went to Burton’s last week and found my dream dress! Carole and her team were knowledgable, patient and did not pressure me one bit. I felt beautiful in the dress I picked and I can’t wait to wear it. Go to Burton’s!
This was my first time shopping and I found my dream dress! Carole was great! There was a great selection of bridal gowns to pick from and everyone working there was so nice and patient. I never felt pressured at any point and felt great about myself the whole time. Make sure to visit Burton’s Bridals!!
This was my first dress appointment and I had know idea what to expect . Carole was absolutely wonderful. We were able to find the dress of my dreams quickly . I definitely recommend going to Burtons first to find the dress of your dreams . I can’t wait to wear my dress.
Carole is great, straight to the point no frills. She ordered me a dress they didn’t have at a better price. Alternations turned out perfect!
Exactly what I wanted during dress shopping not frilly just try on dresses and get out. The staff knew I was not keen on wedding dress shopping and put me at ease.
I absolutely loved my experience at Burton's Bridal. Carole and Brittany were personable, attentive, and extremely helpful from the moment I walked in all the way up until I picked my dress up for my BIG DAY. For a small boutique they have a huge selection of impressive designers. I was able to find the PERFECT dress! It was the first and only place I tried dresses on and I couldn't have been happier with the way it looked and fit on my Wedding Day. Thank you for the best day of my life perfect.
I really wanted to love Burtons. I chose this boutique as first choice in my search for the perfect wedding dress. I thought a private store would have more personal attention than a larger typical bridal store. I found a dress I loved after trying on 3. I really didn’t have a particular dress style in mind but the 3rd dress seems to fit a lot of the pins I saved in my short time browsing. What threw me off is the shadiness that went on when I asked the designer. I was told “I’m not sure I have to check”. I didn’t think to look at the tag when I tried it on but I wish I did. Tried on a few others and asked to see that dress again. There were whispers and the dress appeared again, this time no tags. I asked again what the designer was and I was again told “I’m not sure I have to check”
I had no intention of leaving the store and trying to find the dress elsewhere. I was simply curious if the dress was from the very few designers I did research. But besides that, if it was true that the designer was unknown, wouldn’t it be looked up the 1st time the bride asked ... then the 2nd? Nope. We then asked how much and there was whispering and hiding between the woman helping us( possibly the owner) and the girl behind the desk. The price was within my range and decent but I still was not told the designer. I was disappointed in the lack of respect I had as a bride about to spend a lot of money .. being lied to and left in the dark about the designer. Was I supposed to purchase the dress then find out ? I went to a few other shops after and had that dress in mind the whole time. I compared all the dresses to that dress and would have went back to purchase it but I felt so deceived that I refused to give them my business. Every other shop gives the name and the price. There are no secrets. I went back to the 2nd store I looked at the end of the day and bought a beautiful dress. Ladies you are paying too much money, make sure you are treated as royalty when shopping for this amazing day 💕
Words can not express how lovely Burton's Bridal Salon is. Sue is absolutely fabulous and is genuinely looking out for each and every bride. She and her team ensure brides find their dream dress, at a great cost. She will even offer competitive pricing for gowns and bridesmaids dresses. Between the florist downstairs and the dress shop upstairs, it was a one stop shop for me. I can not wait to tell all my friends about it!
Flowers turned out beautifully. Absolutely no complaints.
The people are nice. They don’t have a very big selection of bridal gowns and they don’t have parking.
My dress came out beautifully and I had so many compliments on it (my father-in-law said he could charge people to just touch it)! This was the 4th place I went and probably 30-someodd dress I tried on, so I was very happy to finally find my dress at a very reasonable price!
We also got my bridesmaids dresses there and Carole and Brittany worked with us to get them in on time so that some of my out of town bridesmaids could get altered a certain weekend.
My only disappointment was that I had to push for more tailoring on my dress. It was a form fitting dress and they wanted it to be less so. I really had to stand my ground when I wanted some alterations. I also had to push for keeping my original dress size. They wanted me to go up a size, but the dress I ordered (the size I wanted) was even still a little big on me. I would've been swimming in the size up!
Overall a very good experience!
Wonderful experience at Burton’s Bridal !
I got my bridesmaids dresses there. They were very helpful , friendly , accommodating and quit efficient. Definitely would recommend!
I was a bridesmaids in my best friends wedding and I have to say Burtons was great. The price of the dress and alterations were great and no one could be it. There is also a variety of dresses to pick from. I recommend going here for bridesmaids dresses.
Burtons Bridals is great. I got married on October 27th, 2018. The dress fit perfect for the day of. The whole process working with Burtons Bridals was very smooth. I purchased my gown on the first day shopping with my mom and it was actually the first dress I tried on. The staff was very friendly and accommodating for scheduling an appointment because my work schedule is hectic.
I went to Burtons Bridals after visiting every store on Long Island and Carole was great. The second I walked upstairs she greeted me and she was very patient as I was deciding what style or shape I wanted to wear for my wedding day. There is a variety of dresses to try on and pick from. It was a great experience. I highly recommend making an appointment!
Love the professionalism and attention to detail. Burton's had a wide variety of designers and beautiful selection of plus size bridal gowns. I would highly recommend checking them out.
Great Bridal shop!
Carole and Brittany were great to work with. I purchased my gown at Burton’s as wedding well as my bridesmaids dresses. My dress had come in very early and Burton’s stored it for me until it was time for alterations. As luck would have it, snow storms hit the same day that each of my fittings were scheduled for, but Carole and Brittany were very accommodating and worked with my schedule to have my dress done on time. My dress was beautiful and fit perfectly.
I just wanted to say thank you to Carole and her staff at BurtonsBridals. You made my dress shopping experience amazing. The time you spent with myself and my bridal party making sure we all found the perfect dresses! Our alterations were perfect and at a very reasonable price. I can’t wait to come back and show you pictures from the wedding . We will miss coming there to such a relaxed atmosphere. Thank you is not enough!!
Stay away. Worst experience ever here. I came in on a Saturday afternoon for my very first time trying on dresses. The sales women (mother and daughter I think) were completely checked-out.
The older woman was watching her friends daughters wedding video on an iPad and talking on the phone the whole time.
The younger woman didn’t even know what inventory she had. The first dress she gave me was a size 4 dress that she told me was an 8. When it didn’t easily fit, she told me to force it on over my head. Needless to say, I got stuck.
It is very comical looking back on but this was really not the memory I expected to have when thinking about the first wedding dress I tried on. Do yourself a favor and skip a trip here.
This was my second shop I visited looking for wedding dresses. The display dress I tried on was a size too small, but Carol was confident it looked great and would look even better once it wasted correct size and made for my measurements. Up to that point, I had only tried on dresses that were very large, and the salesperson would clamp the back so you could see how they’d look once fitted and tailored.
When the dress came in, it still looked too small for me. Carol denied any chance of a mistake on measuring me, yet hadn’t taken into account my cup size (which is a G). It was very apparent I was spilling out of the dress, so the bust had to be built up to be a little more modest. I ended up having to spend hundreds of dollars on alterations, for building up the front, removing the boning, hemming, etc. I wish the owner had used her experience to recognize that with such a large cup size that style of dress may not have fit well, and recommended a different dress for my body shape. I had a lot of anxiety over the way the dress was fitting me after my fittings, but was told over and over again “that’s just the style of the dress.” By that time, it was too late to order a different dress.
The day of the wedding, I noticed a hole in the alterations of the chest line that we could not fix in time, and felt fat the entire day. I still can’t look at my wedding photos because of how self conscious I am of the way the dress fits me.
In the business of selling dresses, not wanting their brides to feel their best.
I purchased my wedding and my bridesmaids dresses from Burtons. It was the 3rd bridal shop I went to and was very happy with the dress selection and their prices. My dress looked beautiful and the had the perfect accessories to go with the dress including the belt, veil and a head piece (that I just adored). We also got the bridesmaid dresses here and they had the lowest price in the area for those dresses. The reason I give them 3 stars has to do with the tailoring. My dress came out great the only complaint I have is that it was too long on my wedding day and I had to hold my dress when I went down the aisle, but I am short so I am used to that kind of thing. My biggest complaint came with my bridesmaid dresses. The dress we picked had 4 straps in the back. After being altered all the straps were crossed, which was not how the dress was designed and something that was never discussed. When they tried to alter the straps the dress no longer fit and they did not offer to fix it after that. Once they uncrossed the straps they gave the girls the dresses and sent them on their way. I made my sister go back with me to discuss the alterations. When she tried the dress on for me the straps were all frayed and they blamed that on the manufacturer, which my reply is if you get a dress with frayed straps from the manufacturer you don't call and complain about that? They also made one of my other bridesmaid order a plus size dress which she said she would not need as she got a dress size smaller from them a year ago and assured them that by the time the wedding came around she would fit in it. After arguing with her made her get the plus size dress which cost her more money. When she got the dress fitted it was hanging off of her. The altered it again with the wrong straps and when she put it on it was still falling off her. She had to go to another tailor and spend more money to get the dress fixed to fit her. It may have just been the style of the dress, but it was very stressful to deal with the errors with the bridesmaid dresses.
