Exquisite Bride - Gibsonia

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!

. 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).

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!

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.

ND 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!

s 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!

sts 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.

(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!

e 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.

lling 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.

. I highly recommend this Bridal Boutique!

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 !

s 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!!

election and I couldn't ask for better folks to work with!

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!

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.

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.

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!

s 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.

te 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!♡

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 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!

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!!

me back with my family to try dresses on but I highly recommended stopping here first:)

th 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!

per 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.

rea 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..

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!

de to actually purchase my dress. They were very kind and wonderful to work with.

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!

and styles!

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!

m 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.

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.

ther 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!

s 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.

t perfect. I highly recommend them for your special day!

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!!

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!!

make my day the best ever!

d visited.

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.

saleswomen and the seamstress I worked with were so sweet and I had fun at all of my fittings. I highly recommend!
