Chan gave me the bridal experience of my dreams!! Love is located in a gorgeous historic building downtown that's so pretty that I'm actually considering a photo there in my dress. As soon as I stepped in the front door, Chan immediately made me feel relaxed and was so warm and accommodating. After reading my notes on dress preferences, Chan pulled a wonderful variety of gowns for me to try so I didn't even have to dig or go through racks. It made the entire experience feel so much more personalized and lux. Her entire inventory was so gorgeous it was actually hard for me to cut down on options until we found the ONE. Although my mom was with me for my initial appointment, my dad wasn't able to come but Chan was kind enough to let us come back the following day for a final look! In addition to her diverse stock and varied accessories, Chan herself was the real treasure of the entire experience. Love Boutique not only gave me the dress of my dreams, but also wonderful memories. Thank you so much!
Chan was amazing. She made me and my guest feel very comfortable while trying on dresses. The vibes were great, and she made sure to bring out all bridal accessories to add to look of trying on dress, so I experienced the full look as if it was my wedding day. My only complaint was i wished they had champagne for when I said Yes to the Dress.
Had a great experience shopping for my wedding dress here, and managed to find one for a good price during one of their sample sales!
It’s a small boutique so I appreciated the private experience, and Chan gave some great advice and suggestions during the appointment.
I was able to find the perfect dress for my elopement, and would definitely recommend this boutique!
(They don’t have a seamstress, but were able to recommend someone nearby who did a great job with the alterations.)
Any questions?
I had such an amazing experience at Love Bride Boutique! I went last minute dress shopping with my family and was nervous that I wouldn’t get a dress in time for the wedding. Chan asked me what I had in mind and she delivered! She showed me about 4-5 dresses, and the first one i tried on was THE ONE. I instantly fell in love with it. It was also off the rack so I was able to save some money and take it home right away! Chan was so kind and patient. Highly recommend her for those who are nervous about wedding dress shopping! She truly made me feel comfortable and special. Thank you for helping me find my dream dress! ♥️
I had the best experience at love boutique. She was very professional with me. Such a sweetheart kind hearted women. She help me find the perfect dress for my wedding in June 2023 I could be more happy and excited for my wedding. The boutique is private which I was love and the decor is so pretty. I walk in knew I was going find my dress here. Yes I said yes to the dress.
Love boutique was my first boutique experience as a bride and I could not have asked for a better start. After being discouraged at David’s bridal I was happy to have a wonderful environment that restored my faith in dress shopping. Though I did not find the dress, I highly recommend this shop.
Absolutely loved my dress shopping experience! Chan was AMAZING and so patient with me and my family during our visit. We felt comfortable and the entire time and I even found the perfect wedding gown!
I had the pleasure of joining my daughter along with her matron of honor & maid of honor at her private bridal appointment recently. Chan, the owner of Love Bride Boutique was AMAZING!!!! She offered a wonderful selection of options, in a beautiful, upscale, intimate setting. Her knowledge & quiet confidence was reassuring and put my daughter at ease. If you are looking for an elegant boutique with outstanding customer service I highly recommend Love Bride Boutique ❤️
I found THEE DRESS!!!!!! I went in already discouraged from previous shopping trips. Chan was very personable and definitely understood the assignment. She immediately picked up on my style and picked out some GORGEOUS gowns. I loved the aesthetics of her studio especially because it offered a one on one shopping experience without interruption. I would definitely recommend Love Bride Boutique.
I attended my future sister-in-law’s dress fitting and the experience was amazing! Shan made it feel so intimate and feel like we were royalty. Her dress selections are jaw dropping! I knew when we walked in this was going to be a one stop shop for my future sister-in-law.
The boutique is beautiful. Elegant and clean, the aesthetics just top tier to what I would want a private boutique to be!
Shan was so super sweet through out the whole process. Definitely recommend for a bride that wants a beautiful gown and an amazing experience when picking their wedding dress!
Chan is absolutely amazing! She really makes you feel comfortable when trying on different dresses. She is truly one of a kind, highly recommend coming to see her for your dress!
Love Bride Boutique’s owner Chan is such a gem and a pleasure to work with! The shop is a little small, but I managed to find my dream dress with the selection there! Chan answered all of my questions and was very accommodating! She recommended a seamstress for alterations and would still be in touch for any additional needs for the dress. Thanks Chan!
Chan was amazing! I was able to find my wedding dress the first go around. She listened to everything I was looking for in a dress and matched me with my dream dress! She also helped me match my accessories which I love because they’re so unique!! I recommend all brides come see Chan to find their dream wedding dress!
Shan has truly been amazing. I visited her boutique first before visiting other bridal boutiques. From the time I met her her energy was so great I knew that even though I wasn’t set on a dress the first time I had to purchase one from her. I returned a second time and finally said yes to a dress! Finding a dress is a major part in planning a wedding and if you want someone to really take there time and find something that checks all your boxes you definitely need to visit Love Bride Boutique!
Amazing bridal boutique! I had a phenomenal experience with Love Bride Boutique! By far the most stunning and diverse selection of dresses I have tried on. My consultant was great at knowing exactly what I was looking for. Thank you! I highly recommend this boutique and will be telling future brides about my amazing experience here!
#1 Shan is amazing and genuinely a kind spirit.
Story: I found a dress on IG that I instantly fell in love with so I tried to figure out how I could get the dress. It was at a boutique in New York (Pantora). While I was planning my trip to New York I happened to click through the site and realized there was an authorized retailer in Norfolk! I scheduled my appointment and sadly the dress was not there, but there was a similar dress so I tried that on. I was set on the original dress so we ordered it.
It's here, I love it and Shan made the process very easy. The only hard part was waiting for it to get here. 😩 Tis beautiful though. Love Bride also has veils and jewelry from what I saw.
I didn’t expect to find a dress on my first try but this boutique had amazing designs. Not to mention that Chan worked with my budget, created a vibe that was intimate, fun and felt like family instead of business. I definitely recommend Love Bride boutique for all future brides searching for their dress.
This was the best experience ever with the Love Bride Boutique we were received with a genuine warm greeting every moment was very professionally executed and we couldn’t have been more pleased the atmosphere was pleasantly intimate and it made my granddaughter’s fitting a most memorable event Thank You Love Bride Boutique for a great experience I would refer any Bride-to-Be to this establishment
What a beautiful experience it was to see my daughter try on such elegant gowns at love bride boutique. The ambiance was perfect and beautifully decorated. We experienced exceptional customer service and i enjoyed the intimacy and the sparkling beverages was such a sweet touch for the sweetest day. The owner of this boutique Mrs. Chan was very welcoming with such a sweet spirit. We couldn’t have had a more perfect day. She said yes to the dress!
Love Bride Boutique is a beautiful bridal shop! Chan was so helpful and professional. She showed me various options but I found my dress on the first try on! She knew exactly what I wanted. The atmosphere was so with beautiful, light music in the background that fit the occasion. It was so worth the travel. I highly recommend this shop to all future brides to be <3
Shan was extremely helpful! I had no idea what I was looking for, but she asked me insightful questions and really listened to my answers to steer me in the right direction. I learned so much with just one appointment with her!

Thank you so much Katie! You were such a pleasure to work with and you are more than welcome any time!
My experience at Love Bride Boutique was one of the greatest experiences I’ve had thus far on my wedding planning journey. From scheduling my appointment with Chan, to my departure, everything was just pure bliss. First of all let me say that her boutique is absolutely breathtaking (super cute, immaculate, and chic). Chan is extremely compassionate about what she does and was very patient with me. There was a sense of intimacy and love in the atmosphere during my appointment with perfect music and good vibes. She catered to and nurtured allllll of my needs, making me even more comfortable as I tried on different styles of dresses she had preselected. (In which all of the dresses were so perfect to my style and taste!) Chan listened to all of my wants and needs and provided solutions to anything I may have questioned! What was a bonus for me was that throughout the whole entire appointment I was never pressured nor did I feel forced or rushed to make a decision that day!! She wanted and allowed me to feel All of my feelings so naturally!!
I couldn’t have been any more pleased with the phenomenal experience and the exceptional quality of service I received at Love Bride Boutique.
OF COURSE I SAID YES TO MY DRESS!
To top it all off we celebrated with a complimentary toast! Cheers to that!
I am so glad the original bridal boutique I went to recommended me to her. From the very first phone call she was very pleasant and inquisitive about how I imagined myself in my wedding dress. We had driven all the way from the DMV area, so we had had a long day and I really didn’t want to waste time trying on dresses I knew I wouldn’t like. Once we arrived she had several dresses a.ready picked out in my size to try on. I tried on about five I believe but I fell in love with the first pick. She was such a blessing to me. Even the little things like music, and the way she clamped me into the dress I extremely appreciated. But the BEST thing of all is that this Bridal Boutique was BLACK FEMALE OWNED. I have been bragging to so many people about this boutique. I pray that this boutique brings her so much business she’ll have to find a bigger store because the experience was that good,I wouldn’t change anything about it.
I had a wonderful experience at Love Bride & would highly recommend them to anyone. The personal service made me feel special!

Thank you so much for this awesome review!
I never imagined my bridal appointment being so intimate, emotional, and personal. I felt so taken care of by Chan. The shop is GORGEOUS, all white and silver with fur and sparkles and chandeliers, and the shop owner provides everything you’ll need to feel comfortable and pampered. She has a variety of dresses and ***listens to what you want*** (can’t emphasize this enough). Chan took her time with me, talked me through my options and consoled me when the tears began to flow. It felt like I had another bridesmaid in the room with me, a close friend. This is such a pivotal time for me as I transition to being a wife and Chan is one of those people that you know listened to her calling and who is divinely well-suited to help women through their transitions. I SAID YES TO THE DRESS AT LOVEBRIDE BOUTIQUE 💖 and I wouldn’t have had it any other way. Thank you so much Chan.

I said yes to the dress at Love Bride Boutique and I'm so glad I did. Chan was awesome! Her professionalism and personal touch really made my experience even more unforgettable. I really felt like she listened to me and she was super attentive to me during the entire appointment. I brought 4 people with me to the appointment and even they felt special. She was so good that I turned to them and whispered "I hope I find my dress here because I really want to buy it from her" and I did! Thank you Chan! I would highly recommend Love Bride Boutique.
Okay - so long story short, I totally didn’t make an appointment here because I somehow got it confused with a different place I made an ACTUAL appointment with. I don’t know how it happened, but somehow it did. When I arrived out of the blue, Shan was so welcoming and apologetic (since she thought she was the one who made the mistake even though it was embarrassingly my mistake) and immediately got everything ready for us. I tried on a few dresses that weren’t my style, and when she realized this she completely listened to everything me and my family and friends said, and pulled some others until we found the perfect dress for me. I really didn’t even try that many on, I think she just did a marvelous job in putting together her collection of gowns. Of course we all cried when we found it, and then all celebrated and had champagne! I had gone to one bridal shop before this, and felt that the previous shop really tried to push me into dresses THEY thought I would like and tried to pressure me into buying one on the spot. Shan was encouraging, uplifting, and just so calming, which really helped me feel confident and beautiful in my dress. She made me feel like it was all my decision no matter what, which is how it should be! I could not recommend her enough. She has kept me up to date on the status of my dress and has helped make this process really easy for me, especially with me mixing up all of my appointments! Maybe I came here by mistake or maybe it was fate, but either way I am so so glad I did.

Emily, thank you so much for this beautiful and motivating review! It was such a pleasure helping you find your dress! You are going to be a stunning bride!
I absolutely loved my experience at Love Bride Boutique! After visiting two other bridal shops, this was by far my best experience! From the beginning Chan was extremely attentive to my vision for my dream dress. Chan made sure to have dresses picked out for me in advance that fit my description perfectly. From the classy decor, champagne and snacks, the atmosphere was absolutely beautiful and made for an amazing experience! I’m so happy I found my dress at Love Bride! Highly recommended!!

Chan is awesome! She took her time with me today, I must have tried on most of the dresses in the boutique. We enjoyed the champagne and the macarons as we went on a “journey of the dresses”! Go shop with Shan at Love Bride Boutique!💕
