I found my wedding dress in November 2022 for my wedding on November 4, 2023. The dress was beautiful! And the alterer did a fantastic job. There was a little hiccup in getting the veil delivered, but it worked out in the end.
I found my dream dress at the first place I went to try on dresses. They had some many beautiful options to choose from and Ian really listed to what I was looking for while also providing some other options that I may not have considered. I went to another salon to try other options but no one made me feel as comfortable and confident as Ian did. I ended up going back the same day to try on my dress again and purchase it! All of the staff there are so kind and helpful. I also had my dress preserved here. They ship it out to a company and it can be shipped back to you or Exquisite when it is done. It came back beautifully boxed and in a timely manner.
I went to numerous bridal shops where I just wasn't getting a stylist who understood what I was looking for and was willing to be as helpful as Exquisite Bride. They helped me to find my dream dress and made it so easy. They had reception lighting and let me walk down the hallway aka "down the aisle" to get the full sense of the day before committing to the dress!
This was the only bridal shop I went to. After trying on a few options the owner (I think) came out with my dream dress and said he thought it'd be perfect for my July barn wedding. He was right. Their entire staff was helpful as I picked my dream dress and veil out. My dress did take longer to arrive but this was at no fault to the store (my dress was handmade in Ukraine, and got held up in shipment).
Had the best experience! Ian and Danette were so wonderful and picked so many dresses I loved. They knew exactly what I wanted before I even did! I was able to say yes to the most beautiful dress and I can’t wait to get married in it! I’m planning on getting my bridesmaid and mother dresses here as well. I would recommend this salon to everyone! Wonderful people, service, and dresses!
The women at the Exquisite Bride - Gibsonia were amazing. From start to finish they helped me nail my wedding day look. They truly take the time to listen to what you like and do not like and find you your dream dress! A long sleeved dress was hard to come by, however they not only found me a long sleeved dress but also found a dress that shared my name, "Mallory."
I would highly recommend this boutique.
I walked in their shop late last night hoping for an off the rack dress (a little last minute as the ceremony is in a week) They helped me find a DREAM dress (or 2 if I'm honest..AND in my budget) and even brought out a variety of veils for me to try until they felt I was happy.
They were very sweet and accommodating. Wish I went to them first!
I got my wedding dress at The Exquisite Bride in Gibsonia. I had an excellent experience here and absolutely loved my dress! They have such a large selection of dresses. Mine is Maggie Sotero, and they had so many Maggie Sotero dresses in their store. They also have seamstresses who were so easy to work with. I went to the store to get my dress altered with their seamstress, which was convenient and easy. She even made me a face mask (that I luckily did not have to end up wearing on my wedding day) using the leftover material from alterations. I highly recommend checking out The Exquisite Bride in Gibsonia!
Danette was an absolutely amazing experience as a consultant. I wish there were more than 5 stars. She listened to what I wanted (bride). She was super patient and open to my requests and ideas. I felt no pressure at all. She was able to suggest different accent pieces and veils to go with my dream dress. She was also willing to put things on and off and on and off until everything matched perfectly. It was more than expected. She even had suggestions and patience to help my bridesmaids to pick out some styles as well as the mother of the bride with no pressure and wrote down styles we liked to research further for the bridesmaids out of state.
Danette and Mary Lou saved me after having a horrible experience at another bridal salon. They let me come in on short notice and paired me with my dream dress! Thank you ladies!
The staff at Exquisite Bride was amazing! I found the dress that I envisioned and felt comfortable in. They have so many different styles and they even have their own private label (thats where my dress was from). The seamstress Dana was a sweetheart and did an amazing job with my hem. My dress has a lot of detail and lace and she matched it up perfectly! I have most of my family and bridesmaid out of town so they couldn't come to some of my fittings, so Dana went out of her way to make a small video to show them how to bustle my dress. If you want a more personal experience in dress hunting and get that very detailed dress, I highly recommend Exquisite Bride in Gibsonia!
What a wonderful experience as a first time mother of the groom! Danette was absolutely a gem. She helped me pick out dresses to try on after listening to me regarding my likes. She was honest as I tried on many different gowns & gave suggestions along the way. She was attentive to every aspect & detail. I would highly recommend to everyone. The individual attention was greatly appreciated.
I absolutely DO NOT recommend this dress shop. When I went to look, the consultant who was helping me did not listen at all to what I was telling her I was looking for. She kept pulling dresses that did were nothing like what I was describing. When you ask for strapless sweetheart, and are continuously given dresses with straps, there is a problem.
I finally found a dress, thanks to my mother and sister, not their consultant, and ordered it in white. The original that I tried on was ivory. Now unfortunately for me, I live in Texas now, not Pittsburgh, so even though my dress arrived to the shop in Mid April, I wasn’t able to get to town to try it on until early May. The shop was aware of this.
When I saw the dress for the first time, my heart broke. There was a very pretty embroidered detailing over the top layer of the dress, which I loved when I initially tried it on. But now that the dress was here and in white, the embroidered detailing was still ivory. I was horrified because this was absolutely NOT what I wanted. I was nearly in tears. The consultant went to get her assistant manager to see what could be done and the assistant manager tried to blame ME for not specifically asking if the embroidery would be white, before I ordered it. How in the world would I know to ask that question? That is the consultant’s job! They also tried to blame me for not getting there to try it on sooner, even though I had told them the day I ordered the dress when I could be in and that I live in Texas. Their customer service is appalling. No bride should have to deal with that. Do NOT use this shop if you want to be treated with any sort of respect as a customer.
My daughter and I both purchased our dresses at Exquisite Bride for her wedding. We had a great experience with Carol when trying on dresses. Also, Jamie is an excellent seamstress. I highly recommend this Bridal Boutique!
The Exquisite Bride was amazing ! The staff was so helpful throughout the entire process of me finding the perfect wedding dress ! I was blessed to have had Lori to help me and she was beyond great. The best part about dress shopping here was the atmosphere - it was relaxed as they let my mom and I pick out dresses to try on and the staff picked them out as well (Lori ended up picking THE dress 😍) ! I was able to take as many pictures as I wanted and re-try on dresses as many times as I needed to feel comfortable with my decision. There were also great incentives added on when you buy your dress on your first visit, which I did. I would recommend The Exquisite Bride to anyone !
This rating is specifically for alterations- although everyone in the shop is lovely and wonderful! I lost a good amount of weight from when my dress was purchased, so my dress was waaaay too big when I came for my first fitting. Jamie was amazing! My dress fit me perfectly- it was strapless and I didn't spend any time my wedding day pulling it up because it stayed exactly where it needed to! She also went above and beyond moving my final fitting to ensure there was plenty of time in case the dress didn't fit exactly right. I looked amazing and I know it was largely due to her turning my dress into my dress dress. She is the best!!
Exquisite Bride was fantastic to work with on all levels! I found my dream dress within one appointment, and all alterations were done beautifully and on time. They had a lovely selection and I couldn't ask for better folks to work with!
I went to Exquisite Bride in Gibsonia as a quick salon visit and expected to get more ideas and try some new styles more than anything. I had a top dress to beat from another salon the day before that I really wasn’t sure I could find anything to compete with. Danette took to time to look at styles I loved and even the other dress I had found and specifically found me a dress that blew the other one totally away. She knew the exact dress I would love and made sure she found it for me. Danette and Claire gave me such excellent customer service and really made me feel special as did everyone else working in the shop that day. Thank you Exquisite Bride Gibsonia!
Finding my dress here was not an issue, however, when my dress came in I was put in a position I was not anticipating and had to pay for the remaining 25%on my own and was told to take as much time and make as many payments as I needed which I appreciated and just to make sure I left enough time for myself to get alterations. THE DAY AFTER CHRISTMAS I had a voicemail saying they were trying to clear out their 2018 books and asked if I would be able to pay the remaining balance(over $700) in 5 days before the New Year. I have never been so upset in my life. I would have continued to work with them and get my alterations done there but that 100% turned me off, you don’t do that to a bride especially the day after Christmas.
I purchased my gown here and all of the ladies here were exceptional. They were so attentive and patient. It was extremely busy the day I went and the girls made me feel like I was the only one there. I went to two other salons in the North Hills area of Pittsburgh and they didn’t come close to the service I received here. I also had my dress altered with Jaymi and she did absolutely amazing as well. Truly have suggested this place to all friends who are looking for beautiful gowns and exceptional service.
I was recommended by another bride who had a great experience and she couldn’t have been more right. My experience was fantastic! The staff was so welcoming and helpful. They made adjustments to fit my large group of family and friends. They have a great selection of dresses for all shapes, sizes and heights. I can’t say enough about Danette. She was a truly remarkable consultant. She picked my absolute dream dress. I couldn’t be happier!
I can't say enough good things about The Exquisite Bride in Gibsonia. I made an appointment for a weekday when they are not as busy as on a weekend. It was great. The consultants were wonderful and the gowns were beautiful. They helped me narrow down my favorites and pick the dress that was The One! I am so excited and would tell any bride that is looking for her wedding dress to give them a call. You won't be disappointed.
I just wanna give a shout out to Judy at the Gibsonia location! She went above and beyond my expectations! I was a walk in, and had went elsewhere the day before but didnt find quite what I was looking for. I had my eye on a particular Stella York and I really just wanted to know if yall carried this particular dress. Well you did and she helped me try it on right then and there! She didn't have to, she could have asked me to come back, (it was a Sunday and they were running by appointment only) but she didn't and I found my dream dress! She took care of me even when she didn't have to and made me feel just as important as any customer with an actual appointment. I wish I was smart enough to have made my appointment here first. Thanks So Much!♡
I absolutely loved Exquisite Bride in Gibsonia and said yes to the dress there yesterday! Cindy was my consultant and she was absolutely amazing. We had a very energetic group and she handled it so well. She was trying to make sure that I was happy and that it was the dress that I wanted... it was never about making a sale. Even the other consultants stepped in and helped as well. I am so happy I went there and can’t wait to go back for my future fittings! Thank you again Exauisite bride!
I went in there the other day and ended up finding and buying my dress there. Annette and Judy helped me and were very helpful and nice! They respected my wishes and made sure that I found exactly what I was looking for. They even helped me find a dress that I didn't think I wanted but ended up buying. They made this process very simple, easy and fun!
I bought a dress several months before my wedding at another salon. Loved the top, was iffy about the bottom. The more I looked at the dress, the more I realized I hated the bottom and couldn’t walk down the aisle in it. In a panic (because my wedding is 4 weeks away) I decided I had to buy another dress last minute. I called and explained my situation and they got me in for an appointment later that afternoon. When I showed up I met the lady I talked to on the phone and she told me she would be helping me. Every other salon I went to left it up to me and my bridesmaids to pick dresses and was no help at all. I don’t feel like they listened to what I wanted the littelest bit. This time was different, Lori was tremendous! She started grabbing dresses exactly as I described and even picked a couple that she thought would look great with my little figure. I found a new dress that I’m absolutely in love with. She gave me honest opinions and promised not to let me leave in a hot mess dress. She set me up with one of her best recommended seamstresses at their earliest appointment. They closed at 7 my appointment was at 5:30. I used every minute of that time not realizing it. I was never once rushed. I can’t say enough good things about this place or Lori. The dresses are gorgeous, the staff are very kind and helpful. Thank you so much Lori!!
This was my first shop that I looked at when browsing for wedding gowns. I cannot rave about Annette enough! She was kind, knowledgeable, and most importantly-HONEST! I have to come back with my family to try dresses on but I highly recommended stopping here first:)
I can’t say enough good things about this shop! From the moment I went in for my first appointment Danette took the time to learn what I liked and we went from there. I had a 3 month lead time, so a dress off the floor was what we had to work with and they had a perfect option. For any girls who are more athletic in build I highly suggest the Kenneth Winston line - they have many options!!! Long story short I couldn’t have asked for a better experience from the dress selection to the final fitting, everything was PERFECT!
I just went there today to shop for wedding gowns. I was so disappointed! Carol was my consultant and she barely spoke the whole time. I tried to thank her multiple times and be super lighthearted and talkative but she never got better. It made the whole appointment awkward. Meanwhile, there was another group next to me and her consultant sounded awesome, they were going out by the window to look at dresses she was trying on and they were showing her all sorts of ways you could style them. Carol just seemed annoyed at the thought of trying on another dress similar to one my sister picked out, which was a silhouette that I did not anticipate liking but ended up liking a lot. Also, my budget is $1000 & under and they didn't have ANYTHING in my price range. I told them this when I booked the appointment but they didn't say anything about it, so I thought that they must have dresses within that price range. I would not recommend this salon.
Spent the day with my mom, aunt, and sitter to get my mom out of the house so we could have people decorate her house for her surprise "60th" birthday party.. called the Gibsonia area to see if they had any openings to try on dresses, they had a 3:00 opening..we went to another shop prior and was very spoiled...spent the morning just figuring out what I wanted..did not want to make a rash decision on the first place I went...We went to The Exquisite Bride and had same thought..not going to make a decision today..Was paired with Donette and she asked a few questions and I showed her what I was looking for and she explained how the shop was set up. We grabbed some dresses and went back to try them on.. In no way did she make you feel uncomfortable as she is helping you take these desses on and off..she ended up bringing back a dress I never would have tried on and it ended up being "THE ONE"..She was so helpful and attentive that I. So very thankful we were paired together. thank you so very much for a wonderful experience..
I purchased my wedding dress, veil, and had my dress altered at the Exquisite Bride in Gibsonia. We purchased the bridesmaids dresses from Exquisite Bride in Murraysville. I cannot say enough great things about my experience with Exquisite Bride!! I would highly, highly recommend purchasing your wedding dress, accessories and bridesmaids dresses there. Danette, Judy and the team at Exquisite Bride are the best!! From start to finish they provided exceptional service. They are all so kind, professional and knowledgeable and will do whatever it takes to make sure that you find your dream dress and look incredible on your wedding day! Even if it means multiple visits! I am very, very indecisive and very particular and they were so very patient with me. They are very sensitive to your budget and do not pressure you into spending more money than you want to. They know their inventory extremely well- Danette helped me pick out the most perfect veil! They kept me apprised of the status of the dresses and my veil, and they made sure everything was smooth and easy. Even though we found the bridesmaids dresses elsewhere, we purchased them through Exquisite Bride because of their great service. And I would highly recommend having your dress altered there as well. Elena altered my dress, and she is a truly exceptional seamstress! I wanted a significant detail on the front of my dress changed, and by the time she was done you would have thought it came that way! And she is so kind as well! Even if you don’t live nearby, make sure to check out Exquisite Bride!
Had a wonderful experience at Exquisite Bride. Found a dress off the rack that fit nearly perfectly. My mother-in-law completed the alterations, so I only worked with Exquisite Bride to actually purchase my dress. They were very kind and wonderful to work with.
Beware of the alterations department!
My wedding was in October as a context.
The experience getting my dress from Exquisite Bride was amazing! They were accommodating and made me feel gorgeous in every dress I tried on. They had a huge selection to chose from and were extremely helpful and listened to what I wanted. After the store had my money for the dress, they couldn't have cared less about it.
I went for my first alteration in the beginning of July with Ricky. He was down right rude. He told me to lose or gain all the weight I was planning to do before my second fitting. Then he was complaining about how beaded my bodice was and how much work it was going to be for him. He then told me how busy he was and how many dresses he had to do before mine. I am the bride, I don't want to hear about this. He said he would call me for my second fitting....he never did.
I called the store at the end of September and a lady called me back saying she would now do my second and third fitting. When I asked why, she said Ricky had quit. (No one notified me!!! and my wedding was in weeks). I then had my second fitting and she was amazing. But then came the third and FINAL fitting.
We show up and my dress WASN'T done! I was getting married in 5 days! The lace wasn't sewn on, the bust needed fixed, and the bustle was wrong. When we inquired about coming back to pick it up and if we could try it on she replied "You can try it on but I wont be here to fix anything". Meaning we may as well take it. She also kept talking about how many dresses were added on to her original amount because Ricky left. I was already stressed as it is. She also made a comment that "he can take off stuff now I have to teach him how to sow it on". I was not happy that someone else was handling my dress.
The dress fit beautifully however my bustle was still wrong and the lace on the front of my dress was still too long. Even with my high heeled shoes on, most people couldn't see the intricate, scalloped lace.
When I called the store to speak to a manager I actually got to talk to the owner. When I told her what Ricky had said and done she said "Now Carley we all know men aren't the greatest with words and that's probably not what he meant". She didn't care what was happening to me right before my wedding because they DON'T employ the seamstresses, they are contracted out. She had her money from the dress.
I would get my dress from them but make sure you have someone else in mind to alter it!
The dresses offered here are beautiful and unique. The service is also stellar! I strongly recommend this shop for bridesmaids dress shopping--they offer a huge selection of colors and styles!
This was the best dress shopping experience I have ever had. I had six months to plan a wedding. We went to a few local vendors, BUT this was my absolute favorite place. Linda, the store manager, found a dress under my budget that was absolutely perfect for me. It was not what I initally thought that I wanted, but it was a perfect fit and more perfect than I could have imagined. They were flexible with my alteration times and helped to ensure that I looked perfect on my big day. The alterations were amazing and very reasonably priced. They did everything to make sure I looked like a beautiful bride to match my beautiful dress. The shop is very beautiful with lots of selections. They go above and beyond to make your shopping experience feel personalized. Linda has a talent for knowing what jewelry looks best and helping to make sure everyone in your bridal party is comfortable and looks their best. This shop was an absolute pleasure to work with. Thank you for helping to make my day the most perfect one!
Great shop, great people! Highly recommend. Alterations were a breeze and I never had any problems coming to the store with questions.
I would not recommend Exquisite Bride to anyone anymore. I picked out the perfect dress there and when it came in, I went to try it on and they told me they did not have enough room to keep the dress there, so I had to take it home a year and a half before my wedding. My wedding is coming up in 2 months now, and I had an appointment to get it altered. I took the dress out of the bag that they put it in and it smelled so musty. Obviously in a panic, I called them and asked what to do only to get interrupted and told "Oh no, it's not our responsibility once you leave the store with it, there is nothing we can do." They were absolutely so rude and no help AT ALL. You would think people running a bridal shop would know a little about bridal gowns, but they don't. What bridal store makes you take your dress home because "they don't have room?" I also called the seamstress to see if she could recommend anything and of course she couldn't either, but did tell me I needed to do something about the smell if I wanted it out before dropping it off the next day. She said she keeps it until the wedding, so if it smelled when I took it, it would smell when I got it back for my wedding day. So I had to cancel my appointment and I'm going elsewhere. Exquisite bride also ordered my maid of honor's dress 2 sizes too small than what she ordered and tried telling her she gained 6 inches - and tried making her order A WHOLE NEW DRESS. This place is seriously a joke and if you're looking for a good bridal experience, go elsewhere.
I had a wonderful experience at The Exquisite Bride Gibsonia! I worked with Judy who was absolutely amazing. I was a bit of a challenge given that we have a very short engagement so I needed something off the rack, and my budget wasn't the highest. She helped me try on a wide selection of dresses from their Loft offerings and I found several that I loved :) She was very conscious of my budget and didn't try to upsell me like I was afraid of after watching how other bridal salons operate. I found the perfect dress at an excellent price and couldn't be happier. The professionalism, care for their customers and fun offering at affordable prices is definitely worth the drive and the 5 star rating.
I had a great experience finding my gown at Exquisite Bride. I was dress shopping with my sister, mom, and MIL and had visited the other Exquisite Bride location, as well as some other local places. I wasn't 100% sold on the dress I liked, so on a whim I gave this location a call and they were able to squeeze us in for an appointment the same day while everyone was still in town. I'm so happy that I did, because I found the dress of my dreams here! They were so nice to work with and I came back for all of my alterations. I was able to leave my dress and veil at the shop, which was a huge help since I was living with my fiance at the time and didn't have a place to store my dress. I had a great experience every time I went here and highly recommend them. I got so many compliments on my dress at my wedding!
ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE! Bought a dress then flew in from Texas four times over the course of a year to get it fitted. Three days before my wedding I went in and it was an absolute mess with no knowledge of how to fix it. They told me they would get an "expert" seamstress in to fix it the next day and to pick a new dress in the meantime, just in case. The assistant manager and Joanne are a delight but unfortunately they can't make up for the rest of them.
Went in the next day, less than 36 hours before my wedding, to be YELLED at by the "expert" seamstress, Deb, because I wanted to know how long it would take because decisions needed to be made. I left and hope to never see her again. She has many poor reviews online as well.
Went to This Magic Moment and they found me a designer gown and pulled people from their other (personal) commitments to come and alter it so that I will have it in PLENTY of time to get it before my wedding. Go there instead.
Exquisite Bride is truly Exquisite! The dress selection is fantastic and the staff is wonderful. They are very professional and willing to go the extra mile to get everything just perfect. I highly recommend them for your special day!
My first experience looking for a wedding dress was not the greatest. The boutique I went to had nothing in my size for me to try on which was very discouraging. Exquisite Bride in Gibsonia was the exact opposite! They had so may dresses in a range of sizes! I had something very specific in mind so I was shocked when I fell in love with the first dress I tried on! Judy was an absolute pleasure to work with. She made me feel super comfortable and helped me with everything so the ladies I brought with me could just relax and enjoy such a special moment. I highly recommend Exsquisite Bride for finding exactly what you want for your big day!!
Beautiful selection of dresses and incredible staff! I purchased my gown, headpiece, veil, and belt from the EB. The staff made me feel like I was the only bride in the building!! They were so attentive yet gave me space when needed! I had originally gone to a very large bridal store outside of Pittsburgh and was so unhappy with the service. They rushed me along and were very rude. I even recommended EB to a girlfriend and she too found her dress there!! It's not the size of the bridal store-it's the way the staff treats you!!
Linda took me under her wing and with the help of the amazing Ricky I got a one of a kind dress that is beyond description! They we so helpful,kind and went ten the extra mile to make my day the best ever!
Meh. I had an OK experience. The lady I worked with was nice enough..but she didn't seem very knowledgeable. Their selection was not nearly as nice as some of the other stores I had visited.
I did not have a good experience at this store. The consultant was not nearly as personable than the consultants at One Enchanted Evening (where I ended up buying my gown). She was cranky and was mad when we came with one extra person (even though there was plenty of room). It seemed she was not being sincere and kept telling me and my group that we were wrong about certain things that other dress stores told us (where you can alter dresses, etc.). Some of the dresses she had me try on smelled "old" and the dressing room area needed some major updating and carpet cleaning.
I purchased my dress from the Exquisite Bride and had a great experience. I felt a little pressure while trying on dresses but I found that to be the case everywhere I shopped. The saleswomen and the seamstress I worked with were so sweet and I had fun at all of my fittings. I highly recommend!
This was a great experience :)! Cindy was so helpful and patient with me! She helped me find the dress of my dreams!! Thank you!!!
We got my mom's dress and my bridesmaid dresses here. They had the best selection of mother of the bride dresses in the city - stylish and young looking, not frumpy. We looked everywhere! For bridesmaids, they were extremely easy to work with, even with some girls making changes, and they gave us a competitive offer for a large bridal party.
I had a great experience shopping for my dress at Exquisite Bride (Murrysville location). Lynda was amazing and not only found my dress, but also my mother's dress. I also had my alterations done in-house and my dress was steamed and ready for me to pick up as promised the day before the wedding.
I would not recommend Exquisite Bride to anyone, and I hope this review will help the store owner/manager improve their store. The staff was NOT friendly, very rushed, and unprofessional. I was very disappointed leaving the store and feared this was how all bridal stores treated future brides, but luckily this store was my first stop, and I found the bridal store that lives up to every girls 'expectations' of wedding dress shopping. Also, the store does not have a large inventory especially for bridesmaid dresses.
I found my wedding dress at Exquisite Bride along with my bridesmaids' dresses. All of the ladies at Exquisite were great to work with and were very pleasant. Their prices, however, seemed to be outrageous compared to other bridal boutiques. They had me order my dress in a size up and when I got my dress, I was swimming in it, which meant it would need altered. Karen did my alterations and she was fabulous. Although alterations were a little expensive, I knew I was in good hands with Karen. Thanks to Exquisite Bride, I walked down the aisle in the gown of my dreams and it fit perfectly!
Lynn was my consultant, very helpful and upbeat. Made picking out my dress very easy and stress free. Dress came in within reasonable time and got 10% off bridesmaid dresses with purchase of my wedding dress.
I was extremely disappointed with my visit to this shop. I showed them photos of dresses I wanted (including one which they featured in a poster in their window) and they seemed uninterested and unable to understand and told me just to look through the hundreds of dresses in bags by myself. No guidance, no advice, and ultimately absolutely nothing I even liked a bit. They also were unable to get any of the 3 dresses I wanted from the collection they advertised in their window! The next day I found exactly what I was looking for in 45 minutes at Bridal Beginning. I would not recommend at all - wish I'd just gone directly to the competitors.
I went there to try on some dresses for my wedding a year away and the lady who helped me was terrible. She wasn't very interested in helping me get the dresses on and made me feel uncomfortable that some of them didn't fit.
I have two other daughters who will be planning weddings at some point. I will never ever consider going to Exquisite Brides for a wedding dress, bridesmaid dresses, veil, or any item of apparel or accessory. The way their sister was treated in purchasing her wedding dress and the nightmare that ensued following up to her actually getting the right dress should never be the experience that a bride should have to go thru.
The owner who we had to ultimately deal with when he decided to show his face..was rude and unprofessional. Do not go here if you are looking for a lovely experience in what is a very integral part of your wedding day!
Horrible experience and will not recommend this bridal store to anyone. Ordering of my dress and size was terrible. The owner was extremely disrespectful and was very unaware of what actually occurs within the store. It seemed that none of the employees were on the same page in regards to the situation I was experiencing. The alterations were given to me by the seamstress rather than me explaining how things fit on my body. Comments she made to me were the opposite of what was explained to the owner and therefore resulted in me leaving with my gown and no alterations completed. Will never go back or recommend anyone to this store.
I'm so unbelievably happy I purchased my dress from The Exquisite Bride in Gibsonia!! The staff we're warm and helpful from my first trying on day to my last fitting! The dress was altered perfectly and their alterations girl was amazing! Definitely worth a visit even if you aren't from the north hills - The exquisite bride delivered on that personalized service I was looking for which made my big day extra special :-)
Our experience at The Exquisite Bride was nothing less than perfect. From the first phone call I made to book my appointment, to the actual day of shopping, everything was so positive and wonderful. This is the only place I went to look at dresses and I found THE dress so easily, thanks to the fantastic people there. Danette was outstanding, and the entire time spent there was beautiful, joyful, and never, ever stressful! It was seamless! Danette was supportive, patient, kind, and encouraging. She listened attentively to what I was looking for and was fully respectful of my budget, and selected a series of stunning gowns to try. I actually ended up choosing a dress she brought in that I likely would have passed up if I were selecting them all myself! Their selection of gowns and quality of service cannot be surpassed. Danette and the staff made me feel beautiful and comfortable, and my family had an amazing experience as well. They know what they are doing and will make every bride feel fully taken care of. I will recommend this boutique to every bride I know! I can't wait to visit them again when my gown arrives, and I can't imagine a better dress-shopping experience--I could go on and on. A thousand thank yous to Danette and the staff at The Exquisite Bride!
This was the first bridal salon that I went shopping at and it will be the last because I found my dream dress! Lynda was my consultant and she was FANTASTIC!! I couldn't have asked for a better experience with her. She listened to my likes and dislikes (and my budget). Plus, she made it fun! I can't say enough good things about her. She even picked the perfect accessories that sealed the deal for me. The employees seem to really care about their brides. Dress shopping was a breeze with them. Thank you for everything Exquisite Bride- Murrysville!
