Luna Boutique

hat reflected my personality and vision for my wedding. I was nervous to find something I felt confident in, but I walked away with a dress I was truly in love with. I got married on July 13, 2019 and got so many compliments on it! I would highly recommend Luna Boutique to anyone looking for a wedding dress. The whole environment at Luna focuses on helping each individual feel confident and beautiful!

al style is. I had a general idea of what I wanted in a dress, and Erin helped me try several in that range. I ended up not loving the way my initial idea (think Carolyn Kennedy slip dress) actually looked on me, so she encouraged me to try a few styles that were slightly different but still fit my style - without pressuring me to try anything I didn't want to. The dress I ended up choosing was strapless, and Erin suggested purchasing additional material and adding sleeves. She also recommended accessories (belt and earrings). The experience shopping for my dress was relaxed and fun from beginning to end. There were no hiccups even when they moved from Lawrenceville to Sewickley between buying and picking up my dress. The final look was so perfect!

Erin was so great and so patient with me (took me a while to make a final choice lol), she even had dresses already picked out for me to try on. I ended up falling in love with the very first dress I tried on. She is truly amazing at what she does and would highly recommend going here to find that perfect dress!

ity and unique! But most of all, the customer service was incredible! I went to 11 different dress shops to find something unique for my wedding (I ended up wearing a pant suit) and Erin was the only shop owner to deliver and to make me feel like a special bride! Her style, professionalism, personality, and willingness to work with you is unmatched! She listens to everything you say and does all she can to make your dreams come true! After my initial visit, she sent me a personal thank you card which made me feel so welcomed, and I hadn't even purchased anything from her yet! We ended up purchasing our wedding jewelry and our mother of the bride dress from Luna as well because it is the only bridal/ evening gown shop to offer such different options (and believe me, I have been to almost every bridal shop in the Pittsburgh area!) I can't say enough about Erin and her shop. Her options are endless and her prices are fair. After my wedding she sent me a personal congratulations card and a gift, are you kidding me!?! Can you be any more thoughtful? Do yourself a favor and visit Luna for all of your bridal and evening dress needs, you will not be disappointed!

ch for a gown is a wonderful feature. There’s no pressure, or judgement, from other brides or shoppers in the store, it’s just you and those you want by your side! Plus, the team really gets to understand what you’re looking for. After finding THE gown, a Rebecca Schnoveld, I went to one other salon before returning to buy the gown during a trunk show. After purchasing, Erin reached out to let me know that based on my measurements, the gown could be tweaked a bit to better fit my shape. This attention to detail simply doesn’t happen at larger salons! I can’t thank the team enough for helping me find my dream dress!

erwhelmed. Both the owner and the style who helped me were friendly and made me feel at east, suggested styles and creative options based on what dresses and feedback I had, and never once were pushy or made me feel rushed. I could not have asked for a more personalized, stress-free, and magical appointment! Not to mention the boutique itself is stunning!

was private with just Erin and my family and she got to know us and my wants. My dress was actually four separate pieces Erin helped put together and I fell in love. Not only did she help me get the perfect dress she also sent me a thank you for coming to her store and then a gift after we got married! I highly recommend Erin and her beautiful store to get your wedding dress!

my guests to try on as many dresses as I wanted ( although I found my perfect dress after only 4) I cannot commend the staff enough for making my experience amazing! This place is truly one of a kind a perfect place to find the dress of your dreams

esses for me, one of which I ‘said yes’ to! I could’ve honestly bought 5 dresses there Their styles are definitely “boutique-like” and not the typical bridal dress. Awesome experience- Hughes

ou can browse any time. Bridal appointments are individual and Nikk made me feel like such a star deciding on my dress. She brought up realistic concerns about both my day and vision that really helped me choose a dress.

appointments only; meaning you are the only bride there. I worked with the owner, Erin. Unlike most bridal consultants she had hip style and laid back demeanor. She listened exactly what I wanted and made me feel beautiful before even leaving the dressing room. Even when members of my family had opinions she stayed solely focused on me and what I wanted. The dress selection can't be found anywhere else in our city. Small designers, high quality, unconventional l. It vibed with my own style and I was easily able find the perfect dress (celebrated with a bottle of champagne). I wanted to look like Stevie Nicks and somehow was able to achieve that . Thank you Erin & Luna for the best experience.

lassy wedding dresses they had in the store. Each time I went in they were so kind and helpful compared to other dress shops I had visited. One of my favorite parts of my wedding day was wearing that gorgeous dress! Thanks again!!!

na is equally as gorgeous! Erin, her team, and the store in general were completely different than any of the other wedding dress shops I went to. I LOVE the idea that you could book your appointment online and it was completely private. It made dress shopping so much more enjoyable and personal. The girls were all extremely patient with me while deciding between dresses and they offered advice whenever asked. After shopping at multiple stores, I felt exhausted and as if I would not find my perfect dress until Glitter & Grit came along. I loved so much of their selection that it was actually difficult to choose one dress. I ended up choosing an Anais Anette lace dress that was absolutely stunning. In addition, Glitter & Grit (Luna Boutique) works with a seamstress, Colleen Bankovich, who is SO talented as well. I could not recommend Luna Boutique and the whole team ENOUGH and I was so pleased with their service!

just not for me!), I thought that I would have to travel to NYC to find my wedding dress. Then one fateful day, just a month after my engagement, I saw the most gorgeous wedding dresses hanging in a store window on Butler Street. I literally pulled over, got out of my car to read the name Glitter & Grit and booked my appointment online right then and there. Spoiler alert: Never did book a trip to NYC. From the second my mom, sister, and I walked in on the day of my appointment, I was in love. First, it was just us in the store, at free will to try on every dress with the help of Erin and two assistants!!! I filled out a form online when I booked the appointment, a questionnaire all about how I envisioned my perfect dress and how I wanted to feel the day of my wedding. Erin was already on top of it with a handful of dresses pulled to the side for me, but also let me take the time to grab any other dress too. I really did want to try on every dress in the store! Ironically, I chose the first dress I tried on that day! And I don’t think this was on accident, as I remember Erin’s assistant specifically grabbing it first as we walked into the dressing room. (And in case you were wondering, it was the least expensive gown.) It was literally just PERFECT. I felt like Erin and her team took to heart understanding me and how I envisioned my perfect dress. I am so glad we found the dress at Erin’s, because I don’t think we could have had a better experience! On the day of the wedding, I got so many compliments on how beautifully unique my dress was and how PERFECT it was for me. I even had a handful of people ask me if I had it made for me! Well it kind of felt like it! I felt like a rockstar in my dress! Erin is the BEST, and she will take the time to get to know you as a bride, and truly help you find the most perfect dress. The experience is truly unmatched in Pittsburgh as well as her collection of dresses. Seriously go to Luna first, you will love it!!! Thank you Erin!!! Love, Janel

owner, she offered little explanation of my bill and dismissed me pretty quickly. As a high priced boutique, I would think they would treat their customers with better attention and respect of their questions and concerns. I am not one to write reviews, but after leaving their store, I actually regretted purchasing their clothing and now I'm not even looking forward to the outfit when it arrives. Definitely not a good experience with the owner and would not shop here again.

irl's life. I'm so glad I got my gown at Glitter & Grit! :)

mermaid cut). I decided to check out this one last place and I was in heaven- private appointments only, with a select number of dresses, all unique. I bought the first dress I tried on and a necklace to go with it. It felt like me and I loved it so much. I would highly recommend Glitter & Grit who is looking for something different.

ditional" for my wedding dress. Erin gave me just enough choices to have options, but not feel overwhelmed. From the second I stepped into Glitter & Grit Erin made me feel comfortable and important. She never rushed me or put pressure on me to make a decision or a purchase. She was so kind and helpful and ultimately helped me find the most perfect dress for my wedding day. I seriously cannot recommend Glitter & Grit enough. I wish I could shop there with Erin all the time!

s. I not only love the store but Erin was so great. Highly recommend trying Glitter and Grit even if it's to just try on your first dress. You'll love it!

enough to attend a trunk show when my favorite designer, Rebecca Shoneveld, was in town and assisted in the selection of my dress. Even though I did not fit perfectly into the sample sizes, never once did Erin make me feel like one of the dresses I tried on could not be made to fit me perfectly as she is so incredibly kind and thoughtful. I was able to find the perfect dress and Rebecca was there to redesign the bodice for me. My wedding was this past weekend and I'm still walking on air, but I cannot tell you how many compliments I received on my beautiful and unique gown. Thank you, Erin--you are one in a million!

dresses, and every single one was perfect in it's own way! I ended up choosing a Daalarna Couture wedding gown and it was exactly what I had always dreamed of wearing on my wedding day. Erin & Rachel were so amazingly kind and made my bridesmaids, family and me feel so welcome. When I came home from my wedding weekend, I even had a small congratulatory gift from Erin at my door step. I cannot recommend Glitter & Grit enough!

ue has just the right amount of dresses to peruse. I had my "this is the one" moment and cannot wait to wear my dress next summer at my wedding.

y could do to help me. I needed to find an entirely new dress and was supposed to be moving out of the city the same day it became clear that there was no way I would be able to wear the gown that I originally bought at the other store. I was really upset and knew there was no way that I would be able to order a gown. The ladies at Glitter & Grit bent over backwards to help me. After I explained my situation, they squeezed me into a 30 minute appointment and managed to find a few dresses that they could potentially sell off the rack. It was clear that this is not something that they normally do and they had the perfect dress waiting for me upon arrival. A review really does not do justice to their kindness and empathy. They went out of their way to help a bride-to-be in wedding crisis mode and if it weren't for this boutique I wouldn't have a dress. I wish I had shopped here from the beginning! Best shopping experience (of any kind) that I've ever had! I would give them 6 stars if I could.

rm and inviting! I would recommend to anyone.

I was blown away by how it seemed like a small store but there were so many selections. From trying dress on to the final dress fitting... Everything was perfect. Thank you Glitter and Grit for giving me my dream dress.

and everything was truly exceptional. We had the store all to ourselves, allowed to roam free and choose anything in the shop to try on. We had a store attendant just for us who was friendly, attentive. They even sent me a sweet thank you note a few days after my appointment to thank me for stopping in, even though I walked away undecided without purchasing anything. After visiting 3 other salons, I must say their service is exceptional...completely stress free, relaxed, and fun. They do not pressure you at all, or try to make a sale by saying "if you buy today I'll throw in your veil free" or "alterations at a discount if you decide today," which was my experience at other salons. I appreciate SO much that they didn't pressure me, as I'm rather indecisive and those sorts of comments make me uncomfortable. I think I had the best experience overall at Glitter & Grit, even over the other the salon that I eventually purchased my dress from. The gown selection is beautiful and so unique, but I ended up choosing another dress because it was exactly what I was looking for...and had G&G had this dress, I would have bought it there. Definitely GO!! I can't recommend them enough!

! Erin, the owner of Glitter & Grit, rolls out the white carpet for every bride. Before the appointment: She makes you feel special from the moment you connect with her boutique. Their website makes it easy to schedule an appointment online and a text message is sent to your phone two days prior as a friendly reminder. During the appointment: If you haven’t seen Glitter & Grit, take a stroll on Butler Street in Lawrenceville and peek in one of their large windows to see for yourself. The space is gorgeous. Modern but also very romantic. When you walk in, wedding gowns for every shape and size line the walls. Vintage bride, Bohemian bride, Classic bride, Glam bride – there’s something for everyone elegantly displayed. Did you know that you have the ENTIRE boutique to yourself when trying on dresses? I can’t tell you how nice it is to walk out to only see your family and friends (Mother of the Bride, Maid of Honor, and Flower Girl) snuggled up on an antique sofa. It makes the experience so special – and totally relaxed. Erin let us walk through the boutique and pick out bridal gowns that I was drawn towards. She also used her bridal expertise and brought along pieces that I would have never thought to pick for myself. I didn’t find my dress the first time I visited but I kept in touch with Erin via email and she recommended that I attend a few bridal trunk shows (Note: Trunk shows are listed on www.glitterandgritpgh.com/. Bridal designers include: Rebecca Schoneveld, Tara La Tour, Daughters of Simone, Lilian Wild, and more!) She was so helpful – and even suggested pieces from each designer that she thought I might like. Talk about great customer service! I returned for the Rebecca Schoneveld trunk show and sorted through her 2017 Bridal Collection. Rebecca Schoneveld creates custom wedding dresses so you pick elements that work best for you! I chose an ivory bodice with a flowy A-line skirt and a long-sleeve lace top. Erin also added a beaded belt, complete with pearls and gems, which added the perfect shimmer and tied in our gold wedding theme. Rebecca Schnoneveld is also going to customize the long-sleeve lace top to feature a keyhole – turning the more conservative wedding dress into a fun and flirty wedding dress. Plus, the price point was totally reasonable (even with alterations) keeping me well within our wedding budget. Oh, and... Glitter & Grit also sells every bridal accessory you can imagine – from veils, to bridal jewelry, to bridal headbands! I scooped up some gold hair clips that match the belt perfectly! Another great moment: Erin didn’t mind one bit when I climbed behind a row of dresses to create a Boomerang video of my “Say Yes to the Dress” moment. Anything for the bride  I can’t wait to come back in a few months to try on my completely customized wedding dress. Thank you Glitter & Grit for creating such a memorable wedding gown shopping experience!

itter & Grit is absolutely GORGEOUS! Erin and her staff are awesome and extremely helpful. They really want you to find the dress that works for you (style, color, price etc.).

rly found her selection of designer dresses from lesser known designers very cool. My favorite dress was one which she actually "built" for me from 3 separate pieces. While I did not select my dress from this store, I'd highly recommend this location to women looking for something different, simple and elegant.

le and more me. Glitter and Grit was so great to work with and dealt with me very calm when I thought I made a mistake.

ut dresses right off of the rack. You get to have a very intimate experience picking out your dress, which made my decision so much easier!

had found one or two pretty ones that would have been fine, but none of them was exactly right or knocked her socks off, and she just couldn't bring herself to say yes to one. So our expectations were low when we went to Glitter and Grit. But what a difference! First, the shop is adorable and comfortable, with cool, relaxing music and great seating. And when you're there, you're the only one there, so it's private and personal. And then there's Erin, who dresses the bride and then helps her figure out if that dress meets her vision of herself. No pushing, no gushing. No "jacking" up with veil and accessories until you think it's the right dress. Not to knock the other stores, because they did have some nice dresses, but there were just too many--they felt like warehouses and they were overwhelming. Erin's collection is just wide enough to provide some really great diversity in styles and fabrics--and the fabrics are superior to anything we saw in the other stores. The designers she carries are smaller and less commercial. Also, the styles are very elegant and classic, not heavy and dripping with tacky bling. So instead of finding a dress, the dress found my daughter. And at the same price point as the big box stores--which surprised us. I was prepared for sticker shock. We literally jumped for joy after we left the shop, having found the perfect dress and placed the order! Can't wait until her dress comes in! Now I know where we'll go FIRST when my younger daughter needs a wedding dress!

The appointments are just you and your family, so you get the private experience. Erin helped me with mine, and I must have tried on 20 dresses! She was patient, kind and so helpful. It was an amazing experience, and I was even sad to pick up my dress because I knew that meant my trips to Glitter & Grit would be no more :(. On my wedding day, many of my friends and family commented on how they had never seen a dress like mine before and how stunning it was! I chose a Flora and Lane dress, and I kept it on as long as I absolutely could. Thank you, Erin, for everything.

ed her job in the wedding industry. She was able to order and have my accessories available in nearly half the time some salons can. If you're looking for unique dresses or accessories, make a day of Butler Street and stop in if you can!

can't remember her name ...Ashley maybe?) helped me pick the perfect dress for the look I was hoping for and recommended a seamstress who made me fall even more in love with the dress when I saw what she did to make it fit my body absolutely perfectly. (Debbie stoutjesdyk). When I said yes to dress at glitter & grit my only complaint was I wished it was more fitted, and Debbie was a master at doing that. It was the best feeling standing there next to my now husband at our ceremony in the barn and him not being able to keep his eyes off me. he kept looking over at me, squeezing my hand, and finally whispered that's a really nice dress. The look in his eyes then was the look he had when he had asked me to marry him. I never felt so beautiful in my life. thank you so much Erin!!!!

supporting a small business girl boss is always a good plan.

traditional bridal experience as well just to make sure. On the day of dress shopping, I booked an appointment at a traditional bridal shop and then later in the day was my appointment at G&G. At the first shop, I disliked the majority of the dresses but found one that could have worked. It was still a fun experience, but wasn't too thrilled when I left. At G&G, I found the exact opposite! Almost all of the dresses I tried on were phenomenal! The difference in fabrics and structure to the dresses put them in a world of their own. Once I tried on "the one", I knew I had found my dress. Aside for the super high quality dresses, Erin (the owner) was a joy to work with. She let me enjoy the experience with my family/friends and gave input as needed but pretty much blended into the background. She was not pushy, but was very conscientious of my budget and told me if I was going to be trying on a dress that was above that. I appreciated that! Overall, it was an amazing experience. If you are looking for something different that the traditional bridal experience, don't hesitate and book your appointment NOW!!! You will not regret it!!!

ng on a bunch of gowns. My appointment was scheduled for 5-6:30pm, but after arriving early and even staying late, we ended up being there for two hours. Erin was very accommodating and polite about everything and she never made me feel rushed to get in and out of gowns or make any decisions. While I didn't end up picking a gown from here, they were all lovely options and I would highly recommend anyone looking for a unique wedding dress to come here first!

reflected my personality in a lot of the gowns. It's so nice to have an alternative to traditional wedding gowns in the city of Pittsburgh. The shop owner (Erin) was so sweet and very very easy to work with, she made the process relaxed and easy. She recommended a great seamstress for alterations locally and the dress was perfect on my wedding day. Erin also had a great knowledge of all the inventory/ fabrics/ vendors that she worked with, she recommened the veil/ color to match my dress and it was perfect. I would highly recommend Glitter and Grit to anyone getting married! :)
