I was told how many perfect options MCB had in stock in my budget both to order and off the rack. After an almost 45 minute drive we walked into MCB and they did not have a single dress in the “simple, clean, fit and flare” style nor anything even similar in my budget. I appreciate the stylist for not trying to force me to try dresses on that were over my budget but it was a disappointing shipping experience:/
From the day I walked in with my family and friends I felt welcome and served. This is the best place to pick out a dress as well as feel special. I appreciate the professionalism and the excellent customer service rendered here.
I love my dress
I am so grateful for Madison Carolina Bridal! First, they were the only bridal shop I came across that offered an appointment option that allowed me to bring everyone I wanted at my appointment. I was also impressed with their wide selection of budget-friendly options that were no less beautiful than any other dress. I had a wonderful time at my appointment, and Alissa was so helpful with finding dresses that matched my style. She also helped me sort through how I was feeling about some of the dresses I liked most (I ended up struggling to decide between two). Sara and Alissa were flexible and accommodating with my schedule to help me get in and try on my top options again so that I could be sure of my decision. Alissa was so patient with me throughout my appointments and a pleasure to work with. I could tell she really cared about me finding "the dress" and wanted to be sure I was confident in my decision before I made one. I would highly recommend Madison Carolina to any bride looking for the perfect dress! They are amazing!
I highly highly highly recommend Madison Carolina Bridal. The women that work here are truly amazing and so friendly. Sara, Alissa, and Megan went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable and special. I initially bought my dress from a pop up shop called Inspire Bridal and was ghosted - they did not let me know if my dress would arrive for my wedding in time. I had to make the decision to find a plan B dress only a few weeks before my wedding. A friend of mine got me in touch with Megan from MCB and she immediately set up an appointment for me. They let my mom and I use the VIP room and Alissa treated us so well and was very kind. This really helped to alleviate the stress I was feeling. I didn’t even have to settle for a dress, she helped me find one that I loved even more than the first dress I found. Bottom line - do not look any further because you will have the best experience at this bridal boutique.
We had a lovely time selecting my daughter's gown and we trusted everything would go well. Unfortunately, we never received an email or phone call that Lauren’s dress was ready, which put us a few months behind schedule. The fitting went well with the exception that the dress we ordered was nearly completely sheer; significantly more than the sample dress. We were comforted with Madison Carolina's offer to send lining so Lauren would be comfortable and the dress would be acceptable to wear in her church wedding. Unfortunately, despite many attempts communication with the store, we did not receive the fabric until just shy of 12 WEEKS from her fitting.
It is worth noting the staff is very friendly and accomodating during the on-site visits. Their gowns are beautiful with something for many brides.
I want to leave a 5 star review, but until the poor communication, lack of organization, empty excuses, and lack of apology improves, I can not recommend this bridal and prom store.
I cannot recommend them enough. They truly care about each client and have the knowledge to get you in the best dress form your body type and vision.
They make you feel confident and you can genuinely be excited about your day
A friend initially told me about this place as I was on the hunt for the perfect dress. I met Sara at the local Bridal Expo about 3 days later. She was warm, friendly and knowledgeable. I immediately knew that I wanted her to help me find my dress. Mind you, I THOUGHT I knew the type of dress I wanted, I literally fell in love with a dress she had at the expo. A few days later I went to her shop to try on the type of dress I thought I wanted and the dress that I fell in love with...BOOM!! Magical!! I purchased the dress that I fell in love with. With her entire team she made me feel beautiful.. I am getting married this Saturday (10/17) and I consider myself extremely blessed to have met her. If you want an experience that you will never ever forget please visit Sara and her wonderful team . She will make sure you look your best on your special day . I recommend her to everyone ... and trust me , the big bridal shops don’t compare !! 10000 stars!!!!!!!!
Madison Carolina Bridal is a wonderful business that works with customers to find the best dress for each bride. They are easy to work with. The store is large and spacious. The employees are very knowledgeable.
I found my absolute DREAM dress here! The very first dress I tried on was the one I fell in love with! I felt 100% comfortable with the employees there & they made sure I loved every aspect of my dress. I highly recommend Madison Carolina Bridal!
Went during a sample sale and they were amazing. I found an absolutely beautiful Justin Alexander gown that just represents me so well. Thank You!
Such a breath of fresh air after visiting another shop that same day! Madison Carolina Bridal offered such an amazing experience from beginning to end and Tammy was so helpful and super fun!
Tammy helped me get my dress ready and she was phenomenal! The whole environment is wonderful. Highly recommend
I was expecting to go into Madison Carolina Bridal and feel overwhelmed by all the dresses, but I had the most stress-free shopping experience! It was so much fun. Excellent customer service. Tammy was very professional and her personality is great! My mom and mother-in-law went with me, and we still talk about how much we loved our experience with Tammy.
This bridal salon is WONDERFUL. after complications with my first dress from Bridal by Lori in Atlanta (do not recommend them at all), Sara and Tammy worked with me to find a dress and veil beyond what I could’ve imagined in my wildest dreams! These ladies truly love what they do and radiate it in every sense of their business. I wish I could go back and only purchase from them. Their alterations lady, Anna, is also fabulous. I would recommend them to any bride looking for a special experience because they will crush it every time!!
Sara and Tammy are the absolute best! The dresses are HIGH QUALITY and LOW PRICES! The accessories are gorgeous and new stock is always coming in! So friendly and comfortable experience.
I said Yes to the dress after trying on 5 dresses! The staff was super helpful and constantly asked if I needed Help getting on my dress and helped me adjust it. 10/10 recommend.
It was first and only stop! I found my Perfect dress! The owners were super awesome and attentive. It's the one stop shop.
My day started off pretty disappointing, but because of Madison Carolina Bridal not only did my day completely get turned around I also found THE dress. The experience was exactly what you want it to be with them. The prices were great and they had such a variety of styles.
Best experience ever! They are all so sweet and really spend the time needed to find the perfect dress for you without pressuring you into buying a thing! I would recommend over and over again without hesitation!
I can't say enough wonderful things about Madison Carolina Bridal and the owner, Sara. As a plus sized bride, I was really nervous about trying on wedding dresses. She was SO helpful and made me feel very comfortable. She has a great selection of dresses for ALL sizes! I said yes to an Allure gown there today and couldn't be happier!! What a fantastic experience! I highly recommend! 10/10 experience.
This was the second place I visited in March when I purchased my dress and they were absolutely amazing! Everyone was super nice and picked out tons of dresses to try on that would fit my venue and my budget! The place was very inviting and with the large selection of dresses under my budget it made it easy to shop without worrying about price. The staff were very helpful and didn't try to sell me anything unless I loved it. I eventually found the perfect dress and I am so glad I went to Madison Carolina Bridal for my wedding dress! We had our wedding in December and the dress was beyond perfect!!!
Wowza! There is no place like MCB. My dear friend found this gem after we both grew up in Simpsonville over the last 20 years. I found my dress, both my besties found their dress, and then my step mom found her dress! We would choose this place over and over again! Love the owner Sarah too
The staff was so patient and helpful as I tried on a lot of different gowns. They are very personable and made the experience al ot of fun!! And the prices are amazing!!! I can't get over how beautiful my dress is. If you are looking for a gorgeous gown but have a tight budget, this is the place to go!!
ABSOLUTELY so thankful I got to meet the most amazing person to help me find my dress she worked with me and gave her honest opinion I would recommend her to anyone I have had friends so there and there so happy with there dresses as well so thankful to meet her and stay connected as well Sara you’re dresses are the BEST ❤️❤️❤️
I placed an order for a pair of earrings over a month before my wedding.
The order was placed through this company's website.
In the order confirmation email there was a line that mentioned I would be notified once the item had been shipped. A week passed - no notification, so I reached out to the retailer. For over a month my emails were completely ignored as were a couple of phone calls I tried making to the number listed on the vendor's website. This vendor only responded to me after posting my initial review here on the Knot (within minutes despite having been 'unable' to respond for weeks). Had I not posted that review, I probably would never have heard from this store owner or received any form of refund. I never received the earrings, but a week before my wedding I did receive a refund. It was too late to place any other online orders from most stores and I didn't have the time to shop around by then.
Madison Carolina is an excellent bridal boutique! They carry a large variety of styles and sizes. Their prices are incredible. Sara, the owner, is so kind! She helps you find exactly what you are looking for and makes sure you leave satisfied. We had a great experience at Madison Carolina and I can't recommend them enough!
Came here a few months back to purchase my gown for my wedding in May, Sara was extremely helpful and a delight to work with. 20 gowns later, I narrowed it down to 2. The one I chose fits me like a glove, the only alteration I needed to make was hemming the bottom. I came back last month to purchase my veil since I didn't want to break the bank in one trip. Sara remembered my visit months prior and gave me the accessory discount which came as a surprise. Would recommend this shop to any bride in search of the perfect dress. Broad selection, affordable prices, and a stress free environment.
I did not buy my dress here, but I feel like this place still deserves a 5 star review. The shop is so cute, and is filled to the brim with gorgeous, budget-friendly gowns. The owner could not have been more sweet or helpful, and pulled me so many great gowns that I did not find while looking on my own. I had a great experience here and would definitely recommend it to other brides!
A beautiful hidden little shop that carries gorgeous designer dresses at affordable prices! Sara was so nice and friendly and gave great customer service. I tried on 7 dresses and the last one was my favorite. Sara went above and beyond to meet my budget and my dream dress. She was even patient and understanding that we had small children with us. I would highly recommend Madison Carolina!
If you’re looking for a unique, budget friendly gown, YOU HAVE TO GO TO MADISON CAROLINA BRIDAL! Also Sarah is such a pleaser to work with!
Amazing! I found and contacted Sara through Facebook she promptly answered all my questions and I set up an appointment. She asked all the details date, style and size etc so she would have an idea of what I wanted before I came in. A few weeks later I met her at a wedding festival and told her I had an appointment with her in Oct and she remembered my name and appointment date even with all the chaos of the event. I went to my appointment she gave me the freedom to look around and also pointed out things that might interest me. I tried on several and when I found the one she knew it also. She made me feel so good about the dress. Talked with me about alterations and how to make it perfect for me. She was absolutely amazing. I was able to walk out the perfect dress that day and below my budget!
So helpful and had the best selection! Would recommend to anyone looking for their dream dress!!
I originally had my dress hand made, and when I put it on I cried, because I didn’t love it. I had three weeks to find a new dress. I stumbled across Sara’s boutique and as soon as I saw my dress, I knew it was THE DRESS And I only saw pictures, she worked so well with me and shipped it ASAP, it fit me like a glove and was even more beautiful in person! I can’t truly put into words how grateful I am for her! She made my wedding my dream come true! 5++++ stars!!!
Best bridal shop ever!! They have a lot of dresses to choose from and sizes that range from 0 to plus size, so there is something for everyone. I was very fortunate to have met Sara at the Wedding Festival back in January and counted down the days to get my chance to go and find my dress. I found my beautiful gown yesterday and can't wait for the big day. The atmosphere was laid back and I felt very comfortable and never felt out of place. Just a great experience all around definitley recommend to all brides.
They had tons of dresses to choice from and even though I didn't really know what I wanted at first they helped me find the perfect dress. So very happy with the service.
The whole experience was so enchanting thank you Madison Carolina bridal and my consultant you guys helped me so much especially with my budget
I can't say enough great things about this bridal salon and Sara! The salon is very affordable and has a very nice selection of stylish gowns! Sara has been a dream to work with as well, being flexible with me and helping me find the dress of my dreams! She helps as much or as little as you would like! Her accessories are fantastic as well! If i had not gotten my dress there(which I did)I would have gone back for accessories! Highly recommend to everyone!
I found Madison Carolina Bridal by accident on Facebook, and I could not be happier. I found the gown of my dreams within just two dresses! Sara was so helpful and made the experience one to remember. I would definitely recommend her!
I cannot say enough great things about my experience. The owner, Sara, made an appointment with me that worked with my schedule and gave me great advice when I had questions. I found the dress of my dreams for a wonderful price. Couldn’t ask for better!
I found Madison Carolina Bridal on Facebook and came into the store right away! The gown I saw online was perfect and it was just as beautiful in store! I felt so good being in the salon with Sara and it was really good to be one on one. I highly recommend her to all brides in the upstate!! Very reasonable prices and amazing service and amazing options!
