ld be removed from your site. PS YOU SUCK ASHLEY. Do not trust!!!! The worst person.

cash out of the business to fund her lifestyle! She will not allow any comments on social media. Stay away!!!!

as in tune with my personal style. She was/is wonderful. Long story short, everything since the purchase of my dress has been a nightmare. It took them five months to get my dress in store when they said it wouldn't take very long, and now I won't get my dress back from alterations until two days before my event. I had to call their store for a month to get them to give me my dress, they ordered custom sleeves for my dress and they weren't ready when I went for alterations so now I'm wearing a strapless dress when that's not what I wanted at all. I have left multiple voicemails and no one cares to call me back. No one picks up the phone. To get any answers I have to show up in store (not a convenient drive for me but it's the only way anyone will speak to me). I've been in customer service for over 10 years, and I know that accidents happen. But when they happen, there's usually an apology and an effort to fix it. Ashley does not care about her customers once they have purchased their dress. Save yourself the stress and go somewhere else

out to update you. All the dresses we got were there days after the "latest arrival date." And lord knows you cannot contact the shop. No one is there to pick up their one phone line most of the time. The voicemail is often full. And sometimes.... it's just not set up! Also, there is no email you can reach anyone at. Well, there is, but they don’t make it public. So, if you're anxiously awaiting your dresses, don't expect to be able to follow up with the shop and get details easily. Their hours are very few and far between and there was a point where they were closed for a few days randomly in January. Also, the dresses that were supposed to be overnighted to my bridesmaids where somehow “held” for days at a FedEx location that doesn’t expedite?!? And when trying to figure this whole thing out, the owner continuously called me the wrong name. Get to know your clients, we are your bread and butter. I'm sure they're busy and have a lot going on, but when you're dealing with weddings and brides, you've got to be on your game. Communication with clients is KEY. The dress shop options in ventura county are pretty limited, the shops are small, and for those of us with full time jobs, going out of our way to LA or SB is not an attractive option. So sticking local is nice and what I prefer to do, but I feel like they take advantage of the fact that they are one of the few ventura county options. In the end, perhaps we should all try to disrupt this ridiculous wedding industry by not allowing these shops to up sell and stress us. Wherever the dresses are being made and shipped from, it's not worth it. I wish I had gone with my gut and ordered from ModCloth for myself and my bridal party because this strife is not worth it for one day. I like my dress, it's beautiful, but all the shop does is order it. They are an inefficient middle man.

beautiful dresses!) They didn’t mind when I wanted to come in another day, so my mom could see the dress when she was in town from out of state. When it came to measurements, Ashley measured me perfectly, so my dress needed minimal alterations. I would definitely recommend Camarillo Bridal to anyone who is looking for a wedding dress.

. I was certain I wasn't going to like myself in a "bride's" style because of my dislike for the traditional, but I wanted to go through the dress trying tradition anyways. I planned to go lone-wolf and then my fiancé had the opportunity to join. We immediately felt welcomed and comfortable. It's an open boutique with a cutesy rustic feel. The dressing rooms are sizeable and the couches for guests are comfortable. The selection of dresses is varied and beautiful. She recognized dresses I had saved without me making an effort to point them out. I felt listened to and that my bridal style was understood. With that, I found the perfect dress. The photo, goodie bag, and folder of information were a great way to end the day there and left me with a continued smile.

yself and she sat and listened to the style of dress I was looking for before we even tried one on. I picked the first dress I tried on and it was one that she recommended! I left and went to Davids Bridal and had an absolutely horrible experience. I went back to Camarillo that same day after calling and they stayed open after hours so that I could purchase the dress. They also packaged it up and sent it to Nashville for me so that I could enjoy the rest of my vacation. They ordered a new overlay and corset straps and mailed those to me as well. I got a few emails and letters from them in the mail making sure I had everything I needed. I felt like a princess from the minute I walked in!! My cousin is getting married soon and we plan on making that our one and only stop! Thanks so much to the entire team at Camarillo Bridal!

ou to the appointments. I'm not sure of anyone that can abide by this rule, I certainly couldn't. They accommodated easily, as there is plenty of room for more. I'm sure it's to control the noise level, but still, I was made to feel like I was inconveniencing them because I have 4 sisters, a mom, and future in-laws that wanted to be there for the big moment I found my dress (which I did!) The hesitation I have with this shop is the service I received several times over the phone, with different employees. The experiences weren't terrible, but definitely made me feel flustered. They are wonderful once you get there, but it can be difficult to make an appointment. Only one person schedules, so if she is helping someone else or just not there, you can only leave a message with the employee who answered. It took about 3 rounds of phone tag to get on the schedule. Anyways, overall I would use them again! The selection was great for bridal gowns. The only reason I mention the other things is they can't know things aren't perfect if no one tells them.

ent types of dresses so I could determine the type of dress that I was looking for. They had a lot of options to choose from. End result was that I found my dress on the first visit and first day of shopping for the dress. After that, they did a great job of keeping me informed of when the dress would be in and what other accessories I needed and when they arrived. They were very professional and all of the staff was very helpful throughout the entire process. I would definitely recommend anyone to go to their store in pursuit of a wedding dress.

d. I ended up looking at another store that had the bridal gown I was interested in on display (Pebbles Bridal in Woodland Hills). Pebbles Bridal had a cheaper price than Camarillo Bridal and when asked if Camarillo Bridal matches other stores prices they responded by saying the prices are already set and every store sells at the same price. So if you are looking at a store with cheap prices don't go to Camarillo Bridal, but if you looking for a place that has a great set up for trying on gowns and works with you to find the dress you want (I combined multiple styles of the same designers to create my dress and it did not cost extra) they are perfect.

ighly recommend this place to any bride to be.

t was exactly in my price range. The only reason I didn't give them 5 stars was because there was some ordering snafus with my rush delivery and undergarment orders. However, they were very professional and fixed the problems right away.

good. However, there are definitely some areas where they could have done better. First, measurements. A couple issues here led to my dress being too big. To start with, they measured me over my clothes- jeans and a sweater. Then they recommend that you order the size dress that corresponds to your largest measurement, because it's easier to take than let out. That makes sense, but if you are being measured over your clothes and are just barely one size bigger based on one of your measurements, you probably should not order the bigger size. I should have listened to my instincts, but I listened to the stylist instead and my dress was way too big. (Luckily I found a good seamstress to take it in.) The second issue was with my veil. First, when they gave me my veil, it was crumpled up in plastic. No, this didn't actually hurt it, but when you're being handed the veil for your wedding day that you've paid $140 for, you don't really want to see it all balled up and wrinkled. I mean, maybe at least fold it neatly? Second, my veil was two layered, and the one I actually got was far, far fluffier than the sample I had tried on. I didn't realize this until I got it home (since it was just crumpled when I picked it up it was hard to tell). When I contacted them about it, they seemed really unconcerned. They were just like, yeah, our samples are really broken in so they are softer. I pointed out they might want to warn people that the samples don't necessarily represent what they will actually be getting. They agreed, but didn't offer any real solutions to the problem of my veil. So I cut the top layer off. Problem of over-fluffiness solved. Anyway, bottom line: nice people, nice dress, everything turned out fine in the end, but not the luxury bridal salon experience their website promises (actual descriptive quote from their website: "legendary Camarillo Bridal experience").

girls probably say this all the time), they insisted I get the dress size they recommended. I didn't lose any weight and they seamstress had to take in 4 inches off the sides. It was difficult because of the lace and I ended up paying a fortune in alterations.

my bridal party... Everyone needed massive alterations which you had to go somewhere else for and pay a lot of money. Some was unavoidable but most was due to measurements being wrong or not converted to the right sizes for both dresses and tuxedos.

with this salon. The ladies are truly magnificent. I ordered my dress that day! They kept me updated when my dress would be available and recommended a great seamstress to make my dress perfect. Thanks, ladies!

experience for my sisters, mom, and I. We spent a little over an hour there and then went to David's bridal, but there was no comparison! SO many people have commented on how elegant and perfect my dress was for me. I'd definitely recommend them.

being treated horribly rude saying they couldn't help me, I called Camarillo Bridal and they were fantastic from the first phone call. They made special arrangements to have my dress flown out from NY so that I could try it on, but if I didn't care for it, I could put my nominal deposit towards any other dress in the store. The store was absolutely gorgeous and every one of the ladies that worked there was incredibly kind and had a strong passion for what they did. The owner is extremely kind. The dress was perfect and every trip there on out was great. They have package deals where you get money off of the veil, dress, shoes and everything else involved with weddings. I would refer anyone here any day of the week. I would say it was well worth the 4 hour drive to get my dream dress. Thank you ladies of Camarillo Bridal!!
