Dara was a pleasure to work with and my dress was exquisite.
Dee, Thanks again for all your support for 'getting' us ready with daughter # 2. She was a stunning bride and you made it so easy. You listened to HER and what SHE wanted and created her vision. It was a wonderful day. Thanks.
I am so happy that I chose Lauderdale Bridal! Daria and her team are so wonderful to work with. They have a beautiful selection of gowns in different styles and are very helpful and knowledgeable. We were able to text Daria with questions about jewelry and other bridal look questions, even if we weren’t purchasing those pieces through her. She made me feel so comfortable and cared for through the whole process. Daria’s seamstresses are so easy to work with and reasonably priced. They showed so much patience as we tried to figure out the best way to keep a strapless gown on my larger chest. I felt like such a bride when I was in the shop and can’t recommend them enough for an easy and exceptional experience!
Any questions?
Extremely accommodating and professional. Every detail was as important to them as it was to me. Could not have been happier.
I am so happy I said yes to the dress at Lauderdale Bride! Daria is an absolute expert and knows exactly what will look best on your body type to make you feel like a beautiful bride. She knew exactly what type of veil I should wear based on my dress and height, and helped me go through a variety of jewelry while I was in my dress to help narrow down what looked best. Her and the seamstress, Rachelle, take so much time to make sure the dress fits perfectly and is comfortable. I couldn't have asked for a better experience!
Really wonderful experience at Lauderdale Bride. They had great customer service every time I went. The prices are affordable and you get a very personalized experience. My gown was exactly what I was looking for!
I am so happy I found my wedding dress at Lauderdale Bride!! The shop is very clean and their dress selections were stunning. I searched high and low for my Calla Blanche dress so I was thrilled when I finally found it at Lauderdale Bride. I wanted to add my own touch with a few alterations and I am so thankful Dee and her seamstress were determined to help make my vision come to life. They were extremely patient and helpful throughout the entire process and were committed making sure my dress fit perfectly for my wedding day. I can't recommend Lauderdale Bride enough!
I had a wonderful experience at Lauderdale Bride. It was the third Bridal salon I visited and all the dresses I tried on were so beautiful. Once I chose my dress (from Calla Blanche), & veil the seamstress Rachelle worked with me to have the alterations done whenever I was back in town (I live in Rhode Island). She did an incredible job and the dress fit like a glove. It was given to me pressed and ready to go, I didn't even have to steam it on the day of. The dress was stunning. They offered to clean the dress for me after my wedding. I recommend this salon 100%!
I had the most wonderful experience at this bridal salon. They are very professional, clean and kind. They were very helpful but not too pushy. I didn’t come with a specific dress or style in mind and they helped guide me to find my dream dress! They altered it perfectly as well in just a couple fittings. I recommend this shop to any bride who wants a lovey and professional experience. I can’t thank them enough!
I am SO happy that I found Lauderdale Brides! I cannot recommend them enough! After trying multiple local bridal gown stores in the South Florida area, I decided to check out Lauderdale Brides based on the fact that they carried a designer I hadn’t seen yet. I made an appointment with my mom. Daria (Dee) was so patient, sweet, and honest! She has been doing this for so long and truly knows what is best for her brides! Immediately after Dee showed me my dress, I fell in love with it and I just didn’t want to take it off! After the purchase of the dress, the fitting process was so seamless. Dee and Rachelle, the seamstress, are true experts and professionals! They have an eye for detail and a true passion for what they do! I wouldn’t recommend any other dress store!
I had a terrible experience at Lauderdale Bride. If you're over a size six, I do not suggest shopping here. When booking the appointment, I specified my dress size. When I arrived for my appointment, I was barely acknowledged. I was ultimately handed a piece of paper to fill out by the bridal consultant. She did not bother looking at the form once I filled it out, and instead proceeded to ask me all the questions on the form. She asked what kind of dress I was interested in, and then told me to just pull whatever I wanted. Having shopped at two other salons, after saying what types of dresses I liked, the consultants helped guide me to what I was looking for or even pulled the dresses themselves. There were no dresses close to my size to be able to try on, which is something I figured out on my own as the bridal consultant did not inform me of the lack of inventory in larger sizes despite being told my size at the booking and on arrival, but that did not stop the consultant from trying to have me attempt to squeeze into dresses. She did not go into the dressing room to assist, just let me fend for myself. I have shopped at two other bridal salons, both of which had the consultant in the dressing room to assist the customer in and out of dresses. The dressing room had no mirror, and the consultant made no effort to show me where a mirror was located but instead left me on my own to wonder around to find one. After trying on two dresses that were way too small, I advised the consultant that if there were no dresses close to my size, that I did not want to try on any others. As I went to change back into my clothes, I heard a second consultant suggest I try on another dress, and then my consultant say "There's no way she'll fit into that." To say the service was rude is an understatement. I was then told that the big sizes go quick and they were sorry they could not help. This all could have been avoided if the store had simply been upfront about not having inventory in my size.
I received so many dresses on my dress it was absolutely beautiful.
I can’t rave enough about this salon. The collections they have are unique and beautiful. Daria is amazing - very practical when it comes to what style is best and also budget. Rachelle who does the tailoring is exceptional! My great fit perfectly and she has great attention to detail. 10/10 recommend!
Beautiful shop and an incredible team! I am so grateful for Dee in helping me get my dream dress for my wedding! There are so many beautiful gowns at the shop. I tried on many I loved, but I had one dress on my mind since I had seen it on my initial search online. I had showed Dee this dress, telling her it was my dream dress, and asked if they happened to have it. They didn’t, but she offered to contact the designer to see if it was available. It happened to be an older model that wasn’t carried in stores anymore and she spoke to the designer and had a loaner dress shipped immediately for me to try on. It came and it was just as amazing as it had looked online. She was able to order the dress for me, knowing it was the dress I just had to have for my wedding. As if that wasn’t incredible enough, I was only 6 months out from my wedding and Dee made it all happen in time. I can’t thank Lauderdale bride enough for making this happen for me. My wedding was incredible, with many thanks to LB!

What an amazing experience! I truly felt like a Bride the moment I walked into this boutique. I had 3 appts the day I went shopping for my dress, and Lauderdale Bride was my 2nd one. I tried on so many beautiful gowns, and found the one, but I had to see the 3rd shop through. Needless to say, I called Dee that night and put a deposit on the gown I fell in love with. I love that Dee immediately asked what my budget was so that we didn’t waste my time or their time, as well as her honesty and knowledge of knowing what flatters different bodies. My gown was stunning and I received so many compliments at my wedding in New Jersey on October 16th, 2021. Dee was amazing through the whole process, and available to go try my gown on to show my mom and MIL. My fitting was great as well! It felt like a glove when I left.
Daria at Lauderdale Bride was so great to work with! She helped me pick out the most amazing dress I’ve ever seen, and made sure all the alterations were done perfectly. I went into Lauderdale Bride thinking I had found the dress I wanted to buy at a different bridal shop, but after only five minutes, Daria showed me the dress I ultimately purchased, which was truly a dream come true. She also surprised me with an incredible veil which I hadn’t even thought of using. I’d highly recommend checking out this shop to any bride!

You looked beautiful, Florencia! It was my pleasure serving you!
I had one of the best experiences shopping at Lauderdale Bride! I would say that it all had to do with Izzy! We had the entire shop to ourselves (definitely make an appointment) and she sat down and talked with me about everything I liked/disliked/or wanted to try on. Then I got to go around the store and select dresses while she also selected a few. She was able to really use her expertise to select dresses for me based on how I was feeling in other dresses. I live out in California and even returned to meet with Izzy again, and she was so fantastic at following up with me and really listening to what I was looking for. While I ultimately did not find 'the one' at this store, they have a large selection and really was a top notch shop that will tailor the experience totally to you! Could not recommend enough. Thanks Izzy!

Thank you, Kyndall. This is so sweet! Although we are sad you will not be wearing one of our gowns on your wedding day, I trust you found the right one, and I am beyond thrilled that you enjoyed your experience here at LB!
Dee is an absolute doll! I knew I'd love her when she mentioned she was from my home state of Massachusetts :) Her shop has an amazing selection of dresses in a variety of styles, so it was easy to find one that I loved. She was very attentive, and made great suggestions for alternations that helped make my dream dress fit like a glove! My wedding day was perfect. My hubby cried when he turned and saw me walking down the aisle. Thanks for everything Dee!

Ohh, you are so very welcome! It was my pleasure!
My daughter and I purchased her gown from Dee at Lauderdale Bridal. Dee was very helpful with helping my daughter make some minor changes to customize the gown, and was always available to give us updates on its arrival. Once the gown arrived she was very helpful with getting the fit just right. She and Rachel the seamstress met with my daughter 7 times to get the fit just right. They even came in on a Sunday evening for the final tweaks! I am so grateful for their patience and desire to make my bride happy! I recommend this shop highly! (Our wedding is 10-1-2021)

I had such an amazing experience at Lauderdale Bridal! They have a wonderful selection of gowns for all brides. My mom, friend, and I were so pleased with Izzys professionalism & helpfulness. Very COVID friendly as well. I would recommend Lauderdale bridal to any bride searching for her dream dress!

Paula, thank you for your kind words. It was a pleasure serving you!
I highly recommend Daria and her salon. When I walked into her salon, I was sure of the style of the dress I wanted. Daria listened and shared her honestly on all the dresses I fitted and decided to have me try something she thought would suit my venue and body structure. It was the perfect dress and made my day perfect. You will be in great hands with Daria from start to finish. You will not be disappointed.

Geo, thank you so much for your kind words! It was a pleasure serving you.
I had the best experience working with Lauderdale Bride. This was my first stop on my wedding dress hunt and ended up also being my last. I didn’t have to look any further. The bridal salon carries many different designers and styles so there is something for everyone. From the moment we walked in, Dee made us feel comfortable and welcomed. She made sure to ask what style I was going for, as well as suggest what she thought would fit well. I tried on probably 20+ dresses that day, a few twice. But when I tried on my dress I knew it was the one. Dee was very easy to communicate with and after my final alteration, my dress fit like a glove. My husband LOVED the dress and I felt and looked amazing on my wedding day. I can’t thank the Lauderdale Bride team enough for helping have the perfect wedding day.

Luanne, thank you so much for your kind words! It was a pleasure serving you.
Lauderdale Bride went above and beyond my expectations! :) I went into this bridal boutique with a very specific dress I wanted in mind... Once I tried on the dress I thought I would love, I realized it DID NOT work with my body. I felt a little lost and confused on what to do... But thankfully, Daria suggested I try on a dress that she thought would look amazing on my body. It was a dress I would've never thought to try on but thank goodness Daria is an expert in what she does and thank goodness she suggested this dress because it was the most amazing dress ever. I couldn't hold back the smile on my face from the moment I put it on to every time I thought about it. Also, huge thank you to Rachelle, who works at Lauderdale Bride to custom tailor the dress to your body. She was so patient, hard working and kind throughout the entire alteration process. :)
The price point at Lauderdale Bride, from dress to alterations, is truly unbeatable!! I am so happy and so thankful I went into this boutique that one day and was encouraged to try on what became the dress of my dreams. Thank you! <3

Dee is the owner of the bridal shop and I had the pleasure of personally working with her through Covid-19. Dee and her staff were absolutely amazing! This bridal shop was the only one that carried the dress I was looking for and I couldn't be more grateful. Thanks for everything Lauderdale Bridal. My dress fit amazing! I'll post pictures soon.

Sam, thank you so much for your kind words! It was a pleasure serving you.
I had been to several other bridal shops before walking into Lauderdale Bride and I knew immediately upon entering that this is where I would find my dress. The store is beautiful, has an amazing selection of dresses from top designers within all budgets, and Dee (Daria), the shop owner, is BEYOND patient and knowledgable. I was extremely indecisive which made me very anxious about the process. I had to have at least 5 appointments deciding between two dresses. Dee worked with me and encouraged the multiple visits. I never felt rushed. Despite the opinions of family members, I was encouraged to stay true to myself. I found the perfect dress and I felt amazing on my wedding day!!! You will not regret walking into this store- skip the others- start with Dee at Lauderdale Bride!

Gabi, thank you so much for your kind words! It was a pleasure serving you.
I had a great experience dress shopping with Daria. She is very sweet and knowledgeable and helped me pick out dresses that fit my vision. I was super indecisive and she was patient with me and encouraged me to try on the dresses I was considering several times to be sure. I have not had the pleasure of working with the seamstress yet but if my first two visits to the shop are any indication of how they do business I know I will be very pleased.

Best bridal shop ever. Found my perfect dress here and the service and attention were the best possible, The owner of the store and here seamstress are super friendly and very patience. I had to go back several times for adjustments and never felt that they were rushing me to the contrary they wanted my dress to be perfect and it was the perfect dress!

Jenn, thank you so much for your kind words! It was a pleasure serving you.
I did not like my experience at Lauderdale Bride. Upon entering the shoppe with my mother, grandmother and mother in law, Dee only greeted me (the bride) and never addressed my family members. Not once did she say hello to them, ask who they were, tell them to have a seat, etc. I ended up telling my mom and grandma they could sit on the couches in the room. Later in the appointment my mom asked if I could try on a specific dress and Dee abruptly replied “no” and was very rude, making us feel like we couldn’t speak up. There was very much a lack of welcoming, friendliness and warmth, which is what I always imagined would be present when I enter a bridal store. Overall, I was extremely disappointed in my appointment and left the store feeling very upset.
The store is lovely. It looks magical and clean inside, adorned with so many beautiful dresses. I wanted to take them all home! However, I did feel pressured to buy a dress as the discounted price was for just that day, as I was told. Therefore, I purchased my dress immediately without any further thoughts because the price was perfect for our budget. I ultimately bought another dress at a different store later that I used for the reception because I was in love with that one more. Even though Dee was knowledgable about her service, I never quite felt warmth being there, if that makes sense. The schedulings were always rushed and last minute. The dress came out beautiful for the ceremony, but I was happy to not have to come back again.

Lauderdale Bride is the absolute best when it comes to wedding gowns in south Florida! Dee, the owner, helped me through the entire process and made sure my dress was perfect for my wedding day. Even when I was worried about getting the last fitting in, Dee made sure everything was well taken care of. Her seamstress was also a pleasure to work with! I will be recommending all my friends here because I want them to find their dream wedding dress and have the best experience just like I did!

Really awesome experience. Great selection of dresses. I never felt rushed or pressured. I visited twice before the day I came back to get my dress. I had family visiting and knew I only had one weekend to make a choice so I needed to narrow things down. It turned out to be the most fun and perfect wedding dress shopping experience I could ask for.

Chelsea, thank you so much for your kind words! It was a pleasure serving you.
After spending an exhausting day shopping the bridal boutiques in Miami with my mom, Lauderdale Bride was breath of fresh air! While not the largest shop in the area, there’s a wide selection of gorgeous gowns and the place is beautiful! Daria listened to what I was looking for and did not waste my time with dresses that didn’t fit the bill. We purchased my dream gown that afternoon! Daria kept in touch throughout the ordering process and was incredibly flexible when my wedding date and venue changed not once, not twice, but (at least) three times. Even on a time crunch, my dress was fitted to perfection and ready when I needed it for my big day. I have received sooooo many compliments on the uniqueness of the gown and am still as in love with it as I was on the day I bought it. Thank you for a wonderful experience!

The second I walked into this bridal shop I knew I would find the dress of my dreams! Daria and her seamstress Rachelle were absolutely amazing! They were precise with everything they did and I had no issues along the way with my fittings and timing of everything, especially during a pandemic! They made my special day even that more special and I’m still receiving compliments about how gorgeous my dress was! Highly recommend!!!!

I am SO happy that I found Lauderdale Brides! I cannot recommend them enough! After trying 3 local bridal gown stores, I decided to check out Lauderdale Brides based on a friend's recommendation.I made an appointment with my mom and sister in law. Luckily there was not an appointment after us because we must have spent 2 hours there! Daria was so patient, sweet, and honest -- which I so appreciated!! I never considered a strapless dress before and never even tried one on in the other stores, but Darria showed me one that I fell in love with! It looks amazing on my body shape and I felt so comfortable in it!! It was such a special moment and memory when we said yes to the dress! They even brought out champagne for us to celebrate! After the purchase of the dress, the fitting process was so seamless. Darria and the seamstress are true experts and professional! They have an eye for detail and a true passion for what they do!

I had the most wonderful time finding my dream wedding dress. D was so patient, since I didn’t know exactly the kind of dress I wanted she accompanied me on the journey of trying on every style available until I found the one that made my heart flutter. Modifications were exceptional, the dress fit like a glove and I felt so comfortable and trusting in their knowledgeable hands. For all the brides out there, don’t think twice and make your appointment with Lauderdale Bride ❤️

This bridal dress store is the best!! My mom and I had a few appointments with Lauderdale Bride being the first. But when we found the dress and experience of my dreams we immediately knew we were in the right place. Dee is the best and very accommodating since I lived out of the area and needed particular times for my fittings. Do not hesitate and go with Lauderdale Bride and Dee!!

Loved Lauderdale Bride from start to finish! It's the most beautiful boutique with a gorgeous dress selection. There were never big crowds and I always had Daria's full attention without hoards of spectators which was a big concern of mine while dress shopping. I was able to try on as many dresses as I wanted and was allowed to take plenty of photos.
After selecting my dress, the alteration process was quick and easy, even though we had to make more changes than initially anticipated. Daria and Bertha came up with solutions to make sure I was 100% comfortable and I loved my wedding dress so much!

I had the best experience here! My gown was gorgeous and from start to finish the amount of attention they pay to every detail of your fitting. It’s like having your family overlooking every inch of your gown. During my final fitting my mom wasn’t able to make it, but they were so particular over how the dress looked any every crease and curve and layout of lace was noted and adjusted to fit my shape. Save yourself the trouble ladies and just make your first appointment here. You won’t be disappointed

BRIDES BEWARE! I was SO excited to come to Lauderdale Bride because of the designers they carried and booked my appointment months in advance since I am currently living abroad but I am getting married in Florida. We arrived an hour early but saw that the blonde woman working was about to start working with a bride during her appointment so we told her we were going to lunch and that we will be back at our actual appointment time. When we arrived back, the woman was still with the former bride and another bride said she also had a 1 PM appointment. The woman working said we can have a party and try on the dresses all together, which was fine but then I started explaining my vision for the dress and her response was, "Ooooh, no one is asking for that style right now..." (mind you I asked for a high neckline and low back). Then I said I was looking for a Calla Blanche dress and she said, "tell me the dress and I will get it for you cheaper than any other place". At that point, not only was I offended that my dress was apparently "not in style" but she also wanted to take my business from another store that actually worked with me to try on dresses. Horrible customer service, and an experience that completely ruined our dress shopping that day.
I could not be more thankful for Dee and Rochelle at Lauderdale Bride! My wedding was only four months after I got engaged and from the day I walked into the store I received the best service. Dee was able to assist in finding me the most perfect gown and even put in the order while I was there as she knew every day was important due to my tight timeline. When my dress came in, it needed extensive alterations and Rochelle seriously worked magic. I was truly amazed how it all came together and they ensured it was ready for me on my wedding day. I could not be more thankful for the time and effort that was put in to ensure my gown fit me perfectly! I truly could not have felt more beautiful on my wedding day and that would not have been possible without Lauderdale Bride! I highly recommend this salon!

I had 2 experiences here, the first was with all my bridesmaids and my mother, the second was just my parents and I... BOTH times were amazing. Dee, the consultant is so warm and honest, and sooo good at reading you. The boutique itself had such an amazing array of gowns, it was like a fairy 's lair. And it truly WAS magical.

Tiffany, thank you so much for your kind words!
We had been to numerous other shops prior to finding Lauderdale Brides and they were all large, crowded, and didn’t quite have the soft style I was looking for. However, from the moment we walked into Darias shop, we felt at peace. The selection was just large enough, but not overwhelming and the styles were just what I had been looking for. I ended up finding this perfect gown that was not only comfortable (very important for me), but also fit the soft, elegant feel I was going for. Finally, I didn’t feel like I was playing dress up... I just felt like me! That being said this dress was an “off the rack” special and was a size 12 (I’m a 6). So when the time came to start altering, I was a little worried. However, Rochelle (the excellent seamstress) and Daria worked with us until the dress fit perfectly. Not only did Rochelle have to remove all of the Chantilly lace from the bottom of the gown, cut a lot of length off (I’m 5’3” and chose to wear flats), and hand sew it back on, but she also affixed removable lace cuff sleeves that were absolutely perfect. All the while Daria, who’s more of a perfectionist then me, was at every appointment ensuring she felt the dress was fitting perfectly. My big request was that I didn’t have to pull up the dress throughout the night (it was strapless) and I can say I didn’t pull it up once. I felt so beautiful on my wedding day and I can’t say enough how much I appreciate their time and dedication.

Karalyn, thank you so much for your kind words!
What an incredible experience! From the moment I walked in to the moment I left I felt so we’ll taken care of. The ladies could not have been nicer and more helpful. I came in to the process not knowing a style and they were wonderful helping me narrow down the search. If you’re looking to spend some time finding a dress that feels right, this is the place. My appointment was the first time trying on dresses so I was a little nervous but quickly felt at ease! ❤️

Jen, thank you so much for your kind words!
BEST EXPERIENCE EVER!!! I had been waiting for my appointment with Lauderdale Brides and I very excited for it. My experience and EXPECTATIONS were exceeded! Daria (Dee ) an absolute GEM! She listened to what I wanted, paid close attention to my wedding and wedding dress vision and NAILED IT! I am looking forward to saying "YES" to the dress! They are willing to work with you. Dee was very thorough in educating me on the types of styles/dresses to the type that would complement my figure. I liked that when we entered the establishment and all the pleasantries were addresses we were offered champagne and discussed my needs and off we went. Dee was very attentive, and made me feel like a true queen and the center of attention. I could not have asked for a better experience. Thank you Dee and Lauderdale Bride for and FANTASTIC experience. I am looking forward to the working with you and my gown journey...
Daria is AMAZING! She really listens to what your vision is and makes it happen! I felt so at ease with her and I she allowed me to feel that she cared about what my concerns and requirements were. They have a great selection of gowns. I went there with an expectation to the type of gown I wanted for my wedding. I am happy I had an open mind, for the dress I choose I would not have thought of due to the "COST",. Daria showed me beautiful gowns within my price point.
I SAID YES TO THE DRESS!!!! I am purchasing a Sophia Tolli, gown . The best part , paying a fraction of the cost due to the style being discontinued. I never knew they had such a thing and my gown is absolutely STUNNING! More than I could have ever imagined. And a gown that is ELEGANT, ROMANTIC, and REGAL!!!! EVERYTHING I desired in my wedding dress. Daria I so appreciate your desire to help please your brides and your concern more of our happiness than your PROFIT purchase point! Brides you must go to Lauderdale Brides for your wedding dress.

Absolutely amazing experience. The store is so adorable and cozy. I brought along my mom and my sister to help me pick out my dress. They made me feel so welcome! They have a huge selection of all different types of gowns. I would highly recommend going here! 5 stars for sure!!!

Kendall, thank you so much for your kind words!
Wow. I don’t know where to begin. Lauderdale bride is exactly what I was wanting for a bridal experience. The service is impeccable. They care so much about you as a bride. They make you feel so special. The dress selection and price range is INSANE!! They have something for every body type and price!! I highly recommend. I got 10% off my dress since I purchased the same day.
My experience at Lauderdale Bride was amazing! I visited several shops and was unable to find any dresses that were even close to what I wanted. Dee the owner was able to find my perfect dress in 30 minutes! She also assisted me with customizing my dress to fit my style and vision perfectly. Her alterations team also deserves a hand as they were able to take the dress in when I lost a significant amount of weight leading up to my wedding. I would highly recommend any bride to visit Lauderdale Bride!
As I am about to start our wedding day, I am up a little early, before the others, so I can stop and reflect on the past several months of the hustle and bustle of planning the most important days of our lives. With that being said, there is no better time than now to share my amazing experience with Lauderdale Bridal. From start to finish it couldn’t have been better. Daria is wonderful to work with! Her knowledge, experience, and advice is spot on. I LOVE that I had the ability to change the fabric of the dress and customize it to fit my style at an adorable price. She genuinely wants you to look beautiful and made sure everything was PERFECT before I left with my dress. Like many brides, I was losing weight up until the wedding so we were altering the dress right up until two days before the wedding. Never in that time did I feel nervous or worried that it wouldn’t get done in time and look flawless. What I loved best is her attention to detail. She knew I wanted the bodice to sit a certain way and really was the voice for me when I didn’t know how to communicate what I wanted while working with the awesome woman altering my dress. During each fitting, she went over the dress with a fine tooth comb to make sure everything was perfect. This meant the most to me as I’m very detail oriented and hate to be the one picking everything apart. It has been such a pleasant, positive, and great experience and I’m proud to wear my dress today knowing it couldn’t have turned it any better for me on our special day. Daria thank you for going above and beyond for making sure I look the best I can today! I couldn’t have asked for it to turn out any better!
I had a fantastic experience! Dee was amazing and made the whole process enjoyable! I just got married and my dress was incredible! I highly reccomend lauderdale brides!
Loved the dress I ordered here! They really listen to the bride, and take into consideration what you want. They matched my style to the tee and I loved my dress! The only thing is better communication during office hours. I understand how it is working with brides, but after buying the dress, it was difficult keeping in contact with them.
I went to three other bridal stores before Lauderdale Bride when I should have just went here first. D is a professional that knows her inventory and can make quick and accurate decisions about what a bride- to-be would look best in and what dress would fit her vision. She made me feel special and I found my perfect dress with her help!
I had a great experience here and found the most perfect dress! The staff is beyond helpful and very knowledgeable.
I had a wonderful experience buying my dress from here. From start to finish the women helped me find the dress that helped me look and feel my best. I would highly recommend shopping for your wedding dress here!
Couldn’t have asked for a better place to find my dress! Tracy was amazing from the beginning and helped me every step of the way. I was really nervous about customizing my dress but Tracy went out of her way to make sure I was in love with it and made sure it was what I was looking for. I can’t thank them enough!
They had the beautiful Sophia Tolli dress I wanted but be prepared to be frustrated with your fittings! My last fitting was 2 days before the wedding. They aren’t in any rush to get your dress to you in time. There were more alterations I wanted to do but they ran out of time. .. the last thing that you want to be doing 2 days before your wedding is wondering if the dress is even going to fit because your last fitting was so long ago... high stress at this place...

Ali,
We are saddened to hear that you felt uncomfortable during your alterations here at Lauderdale Bride. We ordered your gown and hoop skirt and during the alterations process we exchanged your skirt into a smaller size free of charge to ac...
commodate the look you wanted to achieve. We explained that the process of fitting your bridal gown will require multiple appointments until you are completely satisfied with your gown.
It is customary as we go along with the fitting to make sure we are addressing all our brides concerns whether it be fit of the gown or the timeline of the fitting. We made sure to work with your schedule to accommodate days and times which worked for you.
We wish that we had known that you were unhappy with your gown, however you did not communicate this information to us at your final fitting.
It is our standards to fit our brides to perfection, and you were no exception.
I could not say enough about Lauderdale Bride! I had the most awesome experience and they accommodated my last minute appointment without any issues. We had a blast and I would highly recommend this bridal salon to anyone of all shapes, sizes, and budgets. Thank you again for everything!
Beautiful store! The dresses are all gorgeous, it's hard to narrow down to just a few to try on! Tracy greeted us and we immediately loved her! She was super sweet and picked up on my style really fast and instantly knew all the dresses she wanted to pull for me to try on. I ended up falling in love with 3 dresses! It took me another day to settle on just one! But it is absolutely gorgeous and i'm so excited to wear it next month! I am now in the process of getting it altered through the store, and they were very helpful and accomodating. I can't wait to go back next week!
Very easy! I actually ended up picking the very first dress I tried on! After, I went to severely other boutiques to compare and sure enough... nothing did. Very glad I found them! Would definitely recommend!
Tracy is the BEST!! She is so sweet and helpful, can’t wait to go back when my dress comes in. I would definitely recommend going to Lauderdale Bride.
This place gave me an ultimatum about getting a discount right then and there or having it be gone forever. I felt rushed and pressured. Staff was rude and seemed very judgmental. All together a terrible experience.

Hello Danielle,
We are truly sorry to hear that you were not happy with your experience here at Lauderdale Bride. Our store policy with first time shoppers is to offer a courtesy discount based on select gowns from past collections which you t...
ried. This is never meant to make you feel rushed or pressured to purchase a gown if you are not ready!
We discussed the ball gown silhouette as your vision for your big day, and it is customary for us to also select similar styles of gown for you to try based on what you are liking. We are sorry to hear that you felt your experience was less than perfect, this was never our intention.
I cannot say enough about Tracy. After going to three other bridal salons in the area (with my best friend who is a bridal consultant) this was hands down our best experience. She was so helpful and sweet. I purchased my gown in October and she gave me a call to update me on expected shipping a little while after that! Again, an incredible experience and I would highly highly recommend Lauderdale bride!!
I highly recommend Lauderdale Bride! This was the third bridal shop I visited and I absolutely loved working with Tracy! She was extremely sweet and patient and gave me great feedback without being pushy. The shop was beautiful and clean and had a nice variety of dresses without having an overwhelming amount (this worked for me because I had already kind of narrowed down a style). Everyone in the shop was friendly and helpful and they gave us a champagne toast when I officially said yes to the dress! Great experience!
It was such an awesome and easy process in selecting my dress. Staff was so patient and helpful. Tracy was so great in helping me with the dresses I chose, had such a caring and understanding approach, on my selection day she was there all the way helping me select, sharing her opinion, she made the experience an awesome one. THANKS A MILLION TRACY AND LAUDERDALE BRIDE. That's definitely where a bride should go when buying a dress. It's a pleasant atmosphere.
I had such a wonderful experience at Lauderdale Bride. My Maid of Honor and I had been wedding dress shopping all day, and on our way back home we decided to stop into Lauderdale Bride without an appointment. The dresses are gorgeous! The shop is a nice size, without being overwhelming but enough space to look around without feeling like your every move is being watched! Tracy was wonderful and started pulling dresses that we were looking at. After trying a couple on, she went and pulled another for me to try. And that was it! We had found the one. Tracy was so helpful, and without her great eye I would not have found the dress of my dreams. Thank you Lauderdale Bride!
Going to different bridal boutiques wasn't the experience I was hoping for, until I came here ! Staff was amazing ! Tracy helped me so much with her unique ideas ! She knows her stuff. She was such a big help! Ofc I said Yes to my dress ! I can't wait to see it when it arrives! If it wasn't for her, it would be impossible for me to find my dream dress. Definitely a great experience!
What a perfect experience! I had been to over 10 other bridal shops and tried on close to 50 dresses! Tracy helped me step outside of what I thought I wanted and recommended a dress that took my breath away!! She was more than helpful and by far the best service I have received threw this entire experience!! I would recommend any future bride to make the trip to Lauderdale Bride and find the dress of your dreams with Tracy!
I googled this venue since I couldn't find anything I loved in Central Florida. I drove 2 hours south to them and was glad I did. They greeted me with a warm welcome and had me fill out a questionnaire of what I loved in a look vs. what I didn't like. I text them some ideas before my visit. They had several gowns in my price range already picked out for me. After 2 hours , I found the gown of my dreams.
I was already tired of being in other stores and the people were not really great I entering in the Lauderdale Bride was a different experience and I thought it’s here I’m gonna buy my wedding dress !! I decided right there before even se the dresses . Tracy is terrific ! The best ever !! Fingers up to her 👍👍
Absolute perfection is perhaps the only way to describe my experience at Lauderdale Bride. From choosing a gown, customizations and making me feel beautiful in my dream gown, there is no better bridal boutique out there. Tracy is a dream to work with and made a seemingly daunting task of finding the perfect gown into nothing but ease. I would absolutely recommend this salon to anyone looking for a personal one on one experience for their special day. I know I am forever grateful for all of the help they have given me every step of the way.

Thank you so much! We appreciate your feedback!
I wish there were more stars! From start to finish I had the best experience. Little boutique, big selection and SO incredibly helpful and honest. Love them!
Dee was fantastic. Very polite and she asked me what I liked but I also told her to recommend what she thought would look good on me. The first dress she choose was the one. All the ladies were very helpful. Rochelle alternated my dress to perfection. I recommended my cousin here and she just got married last week and looked like a total princess.
Everything was beyond wonderful! When my dress came in and I hated the color they let me take the sample and immediately helped get it resized. Daria took care of the dress I didn’t want and helped keep the process completely stress free. Excellent customer service and I highly recommend Lauderdale bride!
Beautiful boutique with very reasonably priced and exquisite gowns. The level of service here far surpassed what I experienced in other bridal salons. They had the expertise to help me find the perfect gown.
From the moment I walked in, I was captivated by the colors and sparkle and lace. The salon is so beautiful and there are so many gorgeous gowns to try on--and I tried on many!
Tracy was wonderful and patient, providing me expert advice and critique that guided me to the perfect dress! She was kind, fun, knowledgable and supportive, and she was able to ask the right questions to help me figure out what I loved about each gown. She actually listened to my feedback and was able to help me put together a look that matched my vision and venue. I never felt pressure to buy a costly gown, in fact they suggested ways of how I could stay on budget while still getting the look that I wanted. I'm so appreciative to Daria and Tracy and I would definitely recommend this shop to others!

Thank you very much for your review! Tracy is so great at her job, we love having her here!
I highly recommend Lauderdale Bride. I worked with D the owner. It's a smaller boutique with sooo much to choose from. D was a doll, each visit was personalized and never rushed. She was very patient and made sure that every bride looked and felt beautiful for their wedding day!! After trying on 29 dresses the last dress suggested by D was the ONE. My dress was absolutely stunning !! Thanks D!!! xOx
Dee and her team were a dream to work with!! Admist a hurricane and a very short timeline, they made sure my dresses were ready and perfect for my wedding. Rachelle is an excellent seamstress and ensured my dress fit like perfection. Truly experts in their field, working with them was a pleasure and I would recommend them to my friends and family.
