reds of other clients who are also preparing for their special days. I can not say enough about her creativity and vision. She radiates joy. Heidi is using her gifts to make women feel beautiful and bless brides. If you have a chance to work with her -- take it, share your dream, and then get your heart ready because she will create something beyond what you can imagine!

o kind and helpful! I brought in my sisters dress that she purchased from Heidi Elnora years ago, and Heidi herself ensured that the dress was altered and redesigned to make it my own, while still preserving the sentimentality of sharing such a special dress with my sister. There was never even a thought to go anywhere else to find a dress - our family has had two wonderful experience with Heidi Elnora, and we sing her praises to anyone who will listen!

ith me until I knew exactly what I wanted. She truly cares about her clients! She went above and beyond to accommodate me with whatever I needed! Heidi is the best!

dreams! Her masterful design undoubtedly fulfilled all my expectations!

She helped me get exactly what I wanted; also, what I never knew I wanted! I am so glad I had the opportunity to work with her and she was able to create the wedding dress of my dreams! I am so excited to pick it up!

boutiques in town and tried on no less than about 25 dresses. God gifted me Heidi and Liz, who immediately made me feel seen, listening intently and intentionally when I brought in a Vogue article from 2018 and asked for everything and more. The details are EVERYTHING and y’all, Heidi and her team went above and beyond. The pearl neckline, the hand lain and sewn neck lace detailing, the custom overlay that I needed for the church, removable long train... every detail down to the last centimeter was discussed and executed beautifully. I felt like every version of myself on my wedding day as I shed off the layers. The entire day, i felt totally confident in my dress that i characterize as not 1, not 2, but honestly 3 different looks. I was, and still am, so so proud to wear a Heidi creation! My mother also had a custom dress done from complete scratch. She didn’t even have a color picked out and Heidi workshopped it from thin air.. my mom felt unique, glam and so fabulous in her custom gown! This review would have something missing if we didn’t give kudos so Carolyn who quite literally sewed me into my dress and spent hours the week of my wedding making sure it was perfect. I miss the joy of going to see Heidi and visiting the atelier. She truly loves her work and it shows <3 so happy to be a Heidi Bride.

st Heidi Elnora gown. As a teenager, I use to watch the popular reality show "Say Yes to the Dress." I remember laughing with my friends about how silly some of the brides on the show sounded when they said things like "I feel like a bride." Okay.. it is true. I could have seen myself walking down the aisle in every single one of Heidi's lovely dresses. It was when I put on the first Heidi Elnora gown that I truly felt like it was me getting married, having a WEDDING, and when I truly felt "like a bride." Every single dress I tried on was beautifully made with such attention to detail. From my first appointment to my wedding day, I felt like family at Heidi Elnora. I have had four other friends find their dream dresses with Heidi and we all have raved about the experience. I am so proud that I found my dream wedding dress with Heidi Elnora.

sign was so special and thoughtful and I love Heidi dearly! At one point Heidi had three sets of hands working on my dress at once showing her determination, attention to detail and true passion for her design! Thank you Heidi!

within our budget and was able to create a beautiful and timeless look for the big day! The quality of the fabric and workmanship was impeccable. Just can not say enough about how happy we were with the whole experience. Thank you Heidi!

nt to be wearing anything else on my wedding day! The gowns are timeless and effortlessly beautiful.

erience even better! Would totally recommend!

time came, I decided to try on gowns at your typical bridal stores and just came away frustrated. I took my ideas to Heidi and she made them come to life even better than I imagined. The entire experience in Heidi’s boutique was an absolute dream. I couldn’t have asked for a better design experience as a bride. The care she placed in making sure I was happy with every detail, and the thought she put into making sure I was prepared to shine on my wedding day was something I’ll never forget. Thank you Heidi from the bottom of my heart!

have a lot of knowledge), but her care, professional knowledge of wedding dresses, commitment to comfort, and support made my worries melt away immediately! She is so incredibly helpful, and the whole process has been so much fun and stress free! Heidi cares so much about each bride, her comfort, her vision, and offers amazing professional opinions to help make the dream come true! Working with Heidi feels so personal and special, it is truly like being with a friend.

ding dresses and did not even know where to start. When we walked into Build-A-Bride, we were greeted by Heidi Elnora, the most fabulous human and the dress designer, and Piper, the lovely assistant who was there every step of the way! Heidi sat down with me and picked my brain on everything from wedding colors to styles of wedding dresses I thought I would like. Heidi's brain is magic when it comes to piecing her dresses together to truly "build-a-bride" and create exactly what you had envisioned. Once we had the dress picked out, Heidi helped with the veil selection and even helped me find the perfect pair of earrings for my big day! Build-A-Bride is my number one recommendation for all things bridal attire!!!

The whole process was so intimate and made me feel so special. I 100% recommend the Atelier for your wedding dress!

ace. She was great at making my daughter and myself comfortable. Heidi listened to what we each were looking for in a dress. My husband and I picked up the dress,since our daughter lives and works out of town. Heidi was so sweet to FaceTime with my daughter so she could be a part of the dress pick up. Heidi answered all our questions. I appreciated her suggestions from the earrings to the shoes that would be perfect with the dress. The dress is beautiful!!! I know my daughter will feel extra special and beautiful on her wedding day in her Heidi Elnora original.

n dresses which also carried Wedding dresses. That’s when I told my mother about a designer in Birmingham,Alabama that custom designs wedding dresses. We made an appointment with Heidi Elnora and her team. Heidi made sure both myself and my mother felt comfortable during the appointment. She asked each of us what our vision was for a dress for the special day. Heidi listened intently to our ideas, thoughts, and never was judgmental. I knew we were in the right place. Our experience was wonderful and I would recommend Heidi to anyone!

h such grace and ease... you're in the best hands with Heidi, can't recommend enough to choose her!!

r long and stressful process. The afternoon truly just like trying on the prettiest dresses with my girlfriends. I felt so understood and listened to the whole time and we ended up putting two dresses together with the Build-a-Bride collection to make something perfect for my upcoming wedding. My final try-on with Heidi was also incredible! My dress was designed and created with plenty of time to spare and it looks stunning. (So stunning that I keep sneaking peaks of it when my fiancé isn't around.) This was the only place I went to when wedding dress shopping and I 100% recommend them to any bride to be!

and veil feel so special, emotional, and magical. Heidi will make you feel so important and beautiful. I wouldn't recommend going anywhere else for your wedding gown! Heidi will make sure you get the gown of your dreams!! I could not be any happier that I went to heidi elnora Atelier to find my wedding dress!

family! In fact, my sister designed her wedding dress with Heidi and the appointment went so smoothly that I knew when my time came to pick out a wedding dress, I would be going to Heidi to create my dream dress as well! BEST EXPERIENCE!!!

, so I loved getting to try all of the different silhouettes and getting input from the team about adding details. This is such a unique experience with complete customization to make a one of a kind dress! Since my engagement is on the shorter side, Lauren also worked with me to make sure my dress will arrive in plenty of time! I can't wait to walk down the aisle!

fect fit for each personality. The dresses and fabric are definitely high quality. They are a joy and pleasure to work with!

knew exactly what I wanted even though I didn’t know yet. If I could do it all over again I would. I absolutely loved the whole fitting, my dress, and everyone there. I had a blast and cannot wait to share the beautiful dress I picked for my wedding day. Seriously, go check out Heidi and her girls. I promise you’ll love them and your dress as much as I do!

were amazing but, honestly, a custom designed wedding dress was never a thought for me due to budget. I thought maybe this sale would give me a custom dress in my budget. I called and made an appointment to meet Lauren. This would start an experience I honestly never thought would be possible. I had not looked at or tried on any dresses so having Lauren’s input and guidance was a true blessing. I did not find my dress at the fall sale but found what style and color looked best for me. I followed up with Lauren the next spring and brought my bride squad to help find the perfect wedding dress. Lauren is very detailed and had written down everything we discussed from our previous appointment. She also pulled similar dresses that I liked and had them ready to try on. The bride squad also pulled a few dresses to give their input. I decided on one of the original styles we pulled from our initial appointment. Lauren also helped me to customize the dress to fit my needs and stay within my budget. She also blinged up the dress with a few accessories to make it fit my personality. She had everyone close their eyes and open at the same time. The expression on my face, as well, as my bride squad, helped me say those famous words: Yes, to the Dress! I highly recommend the Heidi Elnora Atelier experience and hope you are lucky enough to work with Lauren, but, all the team on Morris Avenue is amazing.

and added it the dress I picked out. It was everything I could have wanted and more! I cannot recommend Heidi Elnora and her team enough! Such a fantastic experience!

zabeth and Lauren encouraged me to trust the process. They were right. My dress was perfect for me! Great people, great talent, and great service! Highly, highly recommend!

gs for me that I requested. She has 10 years experience and it shows. She was so kind and gave me her honest opinions when I asked for them.

me with a tight timeline, and Lauren responded to my inquiry almost immediately on a Sunday, and gave me peace of mind. The next week, I was meeting with Elizabeth, who has an amazing talent for creating something beautiful and tailored to your personality. Looking forward to wearing my unique design in June!

place in Birmingham where you talk to the designer directly and tell them what you want. You can truly make your dream dress and they will customize it any way you want, whether that is building it from scratch or adding something to an existing dress. I worked with Elizabeth and she was the sweetest soul! She is an amazing designer and great at what she does. She made the experience so stress free even though I was cutting it close on time as far as ordering a dress. She is extremely talented and understood every vision. They take it one step further and sketch your dream dress so that both parties are on the same page as far as what the final dress will look like. They were exceptional in every way possible and I highly recommend!!

ughter. Heidi also designed her engagement party dress as well as one for me! We had the best times with Heidi as she created our special dresses! Ten years later, my son is getting married and I called Heidi for a Mother-of-the-Groom gown! I had no idea she had just launched a special occasion line!! I booked my appointment and once again found the perfect dress, with sweet Lauren’s help! The special occasion line is spectacular! After 10 years of continued growth and success, Heidi Elnora Atelier continues to offer the personal service that’s makes you feel extra special in addition to show-stopping designs!

ail are so elegant and feel made for me The dress, the experience, the venue are all excellent, exceptional and beautiful Lauren made my day exceptional and was so knowledgeable and helpful and kind I am so grateful that I found my dress with Heidi Atelier 💜 She has incredible work and her staff is so supportive and kind

like nothing was more important than helping me find my dream dress. I didn’t feel rushed at all during the appointment, which was amazing because I wasn’t entirely sure what style I liked (even though I thought I knew before I got there)! We had a quick engagement, but that didn’t matter—Lauren and everyone else at the Atelier went above and beyond to make sure I wasn’t stressed about a timeline. If you want a stress free and fun experience, where you know you’ll find the dress of your dreams—because they can do literally anything—this is the place for you!

d my wedding gown. Not only did I feel amazing in my dream wedding dress - but it was also a dream to support local makers and artists in such a personal way. On top of that, everyone is so personable and genuine. Hands down one of the bests decisions I made.

place to go to find and make your wedding gown yours!

shine, smiling faces, and the most stunning dresses in the state! Heidi Elnora Atelier promises to have your dress, either on the rack or they will whip out some fabric and MAKE IT! As was the case with me. I spent months attending appointments filled with what seemed the same dresses over and over again, and never the dresses I described or asked for. And then came Heidi, my ray of sunshine! Heidi and her girls whisked me into a private room filled with swaths of fabric, sample dresses, and my bestest friends. A few hours later we had custom designed my EXACT dress using fabrics I can only assume fell from heaven. Since that day, the team has been in constant contact with me to ensure that everything is being made exactly the way I envision it. This is truly the little shop that could! If you know exactly what you want, or if you have no idea - go here. These ladies can make anything happen!

my dreams at Heidi's. I feel like I got so lucky in having Lauren help me find what I was looking for. She had me try on a dress that I might not have normally been drawn to but that ended up being the dress I chose and I couldn't be happier! Not only is the shop so beautiful and welcoming, everyone that works there is to!

absolutely beautiful. We were greeted by Lauren and Liz, who were eager to learn more about us and make us feel comfortable. It's like they can read each other's minds with the dresses and accessories that they selected. There is a large, private area to try on dresses and an elegant sofa for guests. So many beautiful choices! My advice? While they listen to you, you listen to them and their experience. "The dress" turned out to be nothing like what was expected as far as style, but met all expectations as totally loving a gorgeous dress.

tire wedding experience. Once I decided what I wanted in my dress and see confidently who I was as a woman, I was finally excited about getting to walk down the aisle to my future! Getting to work with Heidi Elnora herself is what every girl dreams of in getting to design their own wedding dress. Heidi carefully visualizes every detail and style that each bride wants to incorporate in their dress and creates something so magical that her work is completely untouchable. Along with the help of her amazing assistants (especially Liz and Lauren), every part of my designing process was nothing short of everything I could have ever asked for and I hope every girl gets to have the #HeidiBride experience. I can not wait and see how my dress turns out to look in person!!

ost fun day! I am so excited about my dream dress!!
