Lovely Bride SF

till having that intimate boutique feel. I also enjoyed that they have all their available styles listed on their website & that you are able to add whichever ones you are interested in trying on to your profile prior to your appointment. That way when you get there the stylist already knows what vibe you’re looking for and has already pulled the specific dresses that you know you want to try on. Lizzie was my stylist at all my appointments and I found she was quite helpful. It took me 3 appointments with her to finally say yes to a dress, and I never felt rushed or pressured, she gave good advice on how to eliminate dresses and narrow down what I wanted, and was great at pulling dresses based on various things I mentioned I liked/didn’t like. I would definitely recommend Lovely & Lizzie for your wedding dress shopping :)

g quality and unique from so many other designers I explored. Gia is the amazing.

n "stalking" since receiving the original dress I bought. With only 5 months until my wedding date, to say I was feeling stressed was an understatement. Lizzie was my stylist, and she was INCREDIBLE. I will forever remember her genuine kindness, humor, and real experience that made me feel comfortable and fully validated in my journey. She helped me parse through my feelings, and try on just the right amount of dresses to help me explore. She didn't make me feel guilty in the slightest when I realized that my original dress was still "the one." She made me feel like she was 100% there to support me, rather than just sell me a dress or other items. It's for this reason that I would recommend that everyone visit Lovely Bride on their journey for finding a dress, and for discovering what's really important--how you feel in your dress. Thank you, Lizzie!

d on my feedback on what I had tried on. I didn't feel I was treated any differently for buying a sample, and she found me the most beautiful veil to coordinate as well. She managed my opinions as well as those of my mom and sister, and was friendly yet very efficient. She shipped me the dress to Texas and I didn't even have to pay sales tax! Highly recommend.

ress here and frankly it's the best dress ever, and working with Devon to find it was fantastic. She has a great eye and was extremely helpful throughout the process. I was shopping solo due to pandemic restrictions, struggling with wedding dress sticker shock and wedding-related decision fatigue, wasn't entirely confident in my own preferences for the dress, and feeling generally un-sentimental about the process; and Devon was a dream stylist - she really got me through it. In the end I was obsessed with my dress and LOVED wearing it for my wedding --- my love and enjoyment of it meant more to me than I expected. I am grateful that the dress that was truly perfect for me and my wedding was waiting for me at Lovely Bride and that Devon helped me find it (she KNEW) + had amazing styling tips!

a few different styles I wanted to try on to see what I liked and we ended up finding the One! Soo many cute dresses to choose from. I tried on my dress twice just to be sure it was the one and she was so nice and encouraging about it. I’m so glad I started my bridal dress shopping here and would recommend it to everyone.

hed at over the phone Still waiting to hear back after being promised it would be resolved in April Lost $2500 on a dress purchase that I will never wear Long story: After waiting a month to get an appointment, I was so excited to finally get in and try on all my favorites from the countless insta stories of Lovely. They were one of the few to post about size inclusiveness and having several boho styles - I fell in love with! When I arrived - all the dresses on my wishlist either weren't available OR a size 4-6 sample. I totally understand that being a size 12 street size is really a size 18 bridal and its already so hard to find designers that will make your size. Don't advertise that you are size inclusive when there isn't more than 5 styles to try on that are bigger than a size 6! This should have been red flag number 1. When I did finally find a dress that I loved, which was already over my price range that I told them in the beginning of the apt. The consultant told me it would be ok because you would only need few alterations since the size fit off the sample -to expect only $300 in cost. So I said YES to the dress! After waiting until April for the dress to come in, I was so excited to come in and pick it up! We live an hour away from SF so its a fun drive to go pick up in the city. Unfortunately - you weren't able to try on your purchased dress in the store because of COVID restrictions. Which makes no sense, how could I try on all the samples I want but the dress that is only mine I can't. This should have been warning flag number 2 but no I kept the faith and trusted the staff. They said call within 48 hours if there is any issues. I went straight to the alterations where they told me I would need a lot of alterations to adjust the length and straps, a total of $800 in alterations. I was in shock! I just trusted the staff that alterations would be lower but I was in sticker shock now with the dress being over my budget but also including alterations is now $1K over my budget! I called the store immediately after I left the alterations to say they ordered my dress wrong and they literally laughed on the phone saying that wasn't possible. I asked to talk to a manager, they said they will call me back in an hour. Fast forward to the next day, I finally get a call offering to provide an alterations credit of $300 OR they can resell my dress on Halo for less commission than normal. I took the offer to sell my unused dress on Halo April 2021. They said great, we will draft the contract up and have it to you next week. After 5 emails and weekly calls, I have finally received the contract. I did my part and signed everything within 10 mins of receipt. I have not yet to receive next steps, no reply to my acceptance email, and the dress is not on the site for sale! I will never refer this company to anyone unless you are smaller than a size 6 street size, have a budget of $3000+ for your wedding dress + alterations, and don't care about how they treat customer service.

s of recommendations and knowledge about all things tailoring, time lines and event venues, so don't be shy and let them help with their expertise. I'm so grateful for Lovely Bride and the afternoon I had with my best friend.

n place that also made me feel safe. Thank you Devon and Marga for making wedding dreams come true here!

her help again!

was wonderful, the shop is beautiful and I can't recommend it enough. Found a perfect dress on my first fitting. Thank you Devon!

eat job listening to my wants and needs and even let me have a say in the music during the appointment to put my mind at ease and focus on how I felt in each dress. I also came in solo and Devon did a great job helping me document my selections and take pictures so that I could share the experience with loved ones that weren't able to be there in person. There was a lot of transparency around pricing and their website made it easy for me to know what would be available in store. I would definitely recommend Lovely Bride!

recommend any bride looking for their perfect dress to go to Lovely SF!

was amazing - every dress I tried I, I liked (made the decision hard!!). Diana made sure that I gave every style a try, walked me through the options and gave great recommendations when I asked. Because of Covid, my mom couldn't make it in person so we dialed her in via FaceTime - Diana took the phone, showed her all of the angles and walked her through the details as if she was there live. I had a really tough time making a final decision - Diana and the whole team at Lovely was patient and thoughtful as I worked through my options. It was a truly an amazing experience - would highly recommend.

helped me dress and undress - with accessories each time - until I picked THE ONE! I also went to BoLee and Trudy's last week - which both have great reviews - and there was no comparison. For one - LovelyBride hands down had the best options in terms of a beautifully curated collection. There was the perfect amount of options to choose from. Devon provided unparalleled attention. It was the only boutique that let me walk around and pick dresses. I also received the most attention to detail here - getting outfitted with a myriad of accessories to help me decide: veil, cape, wings, belt, a fake bouquet of flowers! It made the experience so fun and really helped complete a final picture.

I really appreciate as someone who is in a same-sex relationship. They were flexible and accommodating with my schedule. I found the perfect dress and I am so happy I did it here!

onths lead time for her made to order dresses on their website. I didn't get a clear answer when I asked my stylist when I would have had to order. I left feeling confused and a little like I was being lied to or there was some misunderstanding and I wasn't being listened to. Everyone seemed nice enough otherwise, and I do feel like my stylist was trying? I still probably wouldn't go back or recommend. It's too bad, because my virtual appointment with Tiffany, who is mostly based in Chicago, was awesome.

up finding my dream dress, which was totally opposite of the dress I actually made the appointment to try on! Thank you Elizabeth, you're really a gem!

y did she help me narrow down exactly which styles looked best on my body, she took all my my comments and feedback to build on what I already liked. She was incredibly patient with us, let us explore and indulged us with many different gown styles, even when we knew they wouldn't work. She reiterated that I was beautiful and should be extremely confident when I was harping on my "problem areas." She made the appointment about me and didn't let it get lost in my friends opinions. She also did not pressure me at all and understood sometimes it is a process to find your perfect gown. Maliyah made it the most amazing shopping experience I've ever had and would HIGHLY recommend Lovely and especially Maliyah (try to work with her if you can) SO GOOD

a purchase. Darri. Is. A. Dream. She couldn't have made dress shopping for enjoyable. I arrived early, before Darri arrived, and everyone else that works there were so sweet. I bought my dress today, and couldn't have been happier with the staff and selection. If you are looking for a wedding dress plus size or not, go. There is something in everyone's price range.
