I was in town from Hilton Head, SC, I called to book an appointment, they had been booked all day but last minute had an opening. I worked with Amy and Lauren, they were AMAZING! ...
I found my dress and I’m obsessed, I highly recommend Maggi Bridal, dresses and staff.
Absolutely love my dress from Maggi Bridal! They had fantastic selection and I loved my experience. Great from start to finish!!
Had an amazing time at my appointment yesterday at Maggie Bridal. My consultant Barrie was super attentive to all of my ideas and helped guide me toward finding my dream dress! She...
knew exactly which dresses I would like from the moment I walked in, studying my Pinterest board before I even arrived. She learned very quickly what styles I liked and was able to be my advocate through all of my decisions
Sierra was wonderful as she helped my daughter find her perfect dress for her upcoming wedding. The store is relaxed and intimate, the process was handled so smoothly and my daught...
er cried tears of joy for finding the right one! This is a boutique operation, not hundreds of options, but all she tried on were classy,elegant and unique. Highly recommend if you are looking for something special!
Molly helped me find my dream dress, which was not at all what I had imagined going in to the process but looking back I couldn't be happier which what I picked. She was super res...
ponsive to my feedback and was knowledgeable about their selection of dresses and what options they had based on my requests. She was also very patient with me when I was between two dresses and kept taking them off and on again!
All the ladies were exceptionally helpful when the designer was late delivering my dress (thanks Covid). I was calling the shop way too often to see if they had updates, and they went above and beyond, calling the designer for me and giving me updates and reassurance. And when I was anxious (read: crying) that I wouldn't be able to get it tailored in time for the wedding, Barrie was amazing and gave me a ton of recommendations and advice, and talked me down. I would highly recommend Maggi Bridal to any bride!
After not finding my dream wedding dress in my current city, I called Maggi Bridal one morning when I was at my parent’s house and they welcomed me in that afternoon. The person t...
hat helped us asked me for three words that would describe my wedding. I don’t remember now what I answered but she said she was going to pull a dress off the mannequin for me to try on and it was THE ONE. I tried on a bunch of others that I thought I loved and she was so patient with me for each dress. I don’t know how she did it but I am so thankful she pulled that dress. It was absolutely perfect for me! All of the staff at Maggi Bridal were so kind and knowledgeable. Go to them first; you won’t regret it!
LOVED LOVED LOVED my experience with Maggi Bridal! I saw my dream dress on their Instagram for a promotion for a Justin Alexander trunk show and I knew I had to try it on. Though t...
hey did not have any appointments available on my day off, they were able to get me in last minute so I could try the dress on and I am so thankful they did! My visit to Maggi Bridal was my SEVENTH trip to a bridal shop so for them to go above and beyond really said a lot to me before even going there. I knew the moment I stepped into the dress on that it was the one, I truly felt like a bride. From start to finish, I was so happy with my experience and would recommend going there to anybody!
Loved their dress selection. If you're looking for simply beautiful dresses that don't need all the beading and sparkles to make them shine, then this is the dress shop for you!
Working with the stylists at Maggi Bridal was a wonderful experience! They took feedback on what I liked and didn't like about the dresses I was trying on so well, and were able to...
make adjustments and help me find the wedding dress of my dreams. They had so many different styles all within my budget, as well. After purchase, they were extremely responsive, attentive and helpful. I was very pleased with how they kept my dress safe and secure, and would highly recommend others to shop at Maggi Bridal for their dream dress!
I knew from the moment I started planning my wedding that I didn’t want my dress from a huge company. I wanted to shop at a smaller boutique and feel like the people in the shop un...
derstood what I wanted. I found that at Maggi Bridal. Every single dress I tried on I could have gotten married in. If you’re looking for a smaller bridal shopping experience than David’s, I highly recommend Maggi!
Loved working with Birdie from Maggi bridal. We came to choose a dress about a year out from the wedding and found the dress of my dreams. Between choosing the dress and the weddin...
g, my fiancé and I got pregnant, and Maggi bridal was extremely helpful recommending Olga MacDonald to alter my dress. We were able to have the original dress altered and it looked GORGEOUS the day of the wedding. Maggi Bridal was communicative throughout the year we worked together and I adored my dress.
They helped me find my perfect dress within my budget! While searching I was getting concerned that I would need to compromise on price or dress, but they were able to get me my pe...
rfect dress!
This is a shout out to my plus sized ladies either in the Triangle or those that are willing the travel.
I had the MOST INCREDIBLE experience at Maggi Bridal in Raleigh. I was so...
nervous to go dress shopping as a street size 18/20 because I'd spoken to so many boutiques that said they didn't carry dresses that size. I was worried I wouldn't be able to try ANYTHING close to my size and would have to just imagine what it might look like. I had been recommended Maggi Bridal by a coworker (also a plus sized woman) who had been to one other boutique had been disappointed by the options.
Maggi Bridal did NOT disappoint. I was able to try on tons of dresses, they talked to me at length about the vision I had in mind and the feel I wanted for my dress, they talked to me about my budget and took it seriously and I was so lucky to be there during a trunk show. I was able to get my dress and estimate my alterations for under budget. I am so excited to wear my dress on my special day and I really can't recommend the ladies there enough.
I am a wedding planner at Wedding Planning NC. My client had previously bought a wedding dress on her own at a different bridal boutique and was not happy with her selection. So I ...
took my client to Maggi Bridal in Raleigh where she found the dress of her dreams within the first 30 minutes! Pamela helped us find her jaw-dropping dress, and provided EXCELLENT service. At Maggi Bridal they treat you with care. We never felt rushed or pressured into buying a dress, but instead we left knowing we had made the right decision. Their selection of dresses is very unique and up-to-date in fashion as well. I highly suggested booking a appointment at Maggi Bridal. You will not be disappointed.
I had a wonderful experience at Maggi Bridal! They made us feel comfortable at the salon while still following safety protocols. Pamela was an outstanding consultant! The first dre...
ss I tried one was one I picked out myself and thought it might be “the one”. After trying on several more dresses and getting to know my preferences, Pamela found a dress for me that was even better than anything I could have imagined! She also found the perfect veil to compliment the dress!
I was so nervous about looking for a wedding dress, since I had no idea what style or details I was looking for. My mom and I made an appointment at Maggi Bridal and my intention w...
as just to try on different styles to narrow down what I liked/disliked. We worked with Pamela and she was amazing! The entire studio was reserved for my mom and I, which made us feel so comfortable in the midst of COVID. Pamela was so patient, gave great suggestions, and was open to all the questions and feedback I had. She was so efficient and speedy without making me feel rushed. She has so much knowledge on the different designers and was able to pin down exactly what I wanted in only 8 dresses. I ended up finding my dress (it was the second one I tried on) and I could not have asked for a better experience. I would highly recommend Maggi Bridal!
I had a great experience here! Alexis was so wonderful and supportive throughout the whole process. They have a great variety of dresses and really help you find styles that best s...

nervous going into the appointment (having never tried on a wedding dress), but Pamela put my nerves at ease and was so very helpful. I also really liked that our dressing room area was private and comfortable for myself, mom, sister and aunt. It was an excellent experience from start to finish!
Working with Barrie at Maggi Bridal was the best experience. She helped me find my dream dress! She made me feel so comfortable and took the time to learn my style and budget. I hi...

She followed up with me after and that showed just how much the staff cares at Maggi’s. I HIGHLY recommend checking them out if you’re looking for your dream dress!
This is your ONE STOP Bridal Shop. Alexis has over 20 years of experience helping Brides find their "just right". She asked the right questions, and was almost as excited as me wh...
en I said yes to the dress. If you are a North Carolina bride, or in the surrounding area, do yourself a favor and call her!
This was (thankfully) the one and only bridal boutique I visited, and I could not have asked for a better place to find my wedding dress! I was very anxious about trying on dresses...
and had no idea what dress styles I wanted or even liked. Alexis was AWESOME and made me feel comfortable and helped me throughout the entire experience. With a plethora of bridal boutiques to choose from in the Raleigh area, I would easily recommend Maggi Bridal to any bride-to-be. Thank you Alexis!
Maggi bridal was amazing. I was greeted warmly and everyone in the store was attentive and helpful. Alexis was perfect to work with. She listened to what I wanted and didn’t let me...
grab anything that was over my budget. I was able to find the dress- one that Alexis pulled and the second I tried on! It was an absolutely perfect day. I can’t say enough good things about maggi bridal and Alexis! I highly recommend!
I am SO happy that I chose Maggi Bridal as my first stop in shopping for a wedding dress because I found the one! Alexis was so personable and made my decisions in choosing a dress...
a lot easier. I was able to browse the store and select a few dresses and Alexis picked some of her favorites as well! I found my dream dress in less than an hour! Maggi had so many beautiful gowns to choose from and I highly recommend their store when shopping for the perfect dress!

ped make the experience so so fun (even with COVID restrictions/mask wearing). I highly recommend!!
I found Maggie Bridal online while looking at 3am for shops that were taking appointments during covid. I requested an appointment time in the middle of the night and very quickly ...
the next morning they had 3 time slots for me to pick from! The day of my appointment I was greeted by Alexis who was very warm and welcoming. We washed our hands, got a tour, and very quickly dove into the process. My mom and I picked put a few dresses and we even had Alexis pick a few as well. Within half an hour I had found my dream dress! Alexis was so kind and supportive the whole time. There was no pressure to purchase that day even though we did! The paper work was quick and easy as well. They also had veil and accessory options there which are beautiful. I cannot wait for my dress to come in so I can try it on again in my size and see Alexis again!
I found a dress online that I fell in love with and Maggi Bridal happened to the only place that carried it in a 200 mile distance!! And I couldn’t be happier that it was Maggi Bri...
dal, I worked with Pamela when I went in. She listened to what I wanted and I tried on a total of five dresses and the last dress was the one I fell in love with online and as soon as I tried it on, it was instant love. She worked with me to get the dress that I wanted and was a joy to work with. I can’t wait to go pick up my dress in about 5 months!! Thank you for being so easy to work with and not ever feeling pressured into anything I didn’t want!!
Being the most indecisive bride, I had already gone to several other bridal shops (even one the same day). I walked in and was instantly relieved when I saw the beautiful dresses c...
overing all of the walls and meeting Morgan, my stylist. She was attentive, listened to all of my wants and desires and she even created the most PERFECT two-piece masterpiece that I said YES to!! Do not hesitate to go to Maggi Bridal. They will blow your expectations out of the water and make sure you leave feeling like the most beautiful soon-to-be bride!
I initially decided to book an appointment with Maggi Bridal after following them on Instagram for awhile. I really had no idea of the dress style I wanted and choose a few differe...

xis was such a delight to work with and truly helped me find the perfect wedding dress! She even worked me back in later the same day to try on 1 last time and make it official😘
Cannot say enough good things about Maggi Bridal! Pamela helped me pick out the most gorgeous dress!! I tried on about 6 dresses and we got to take hundreds of pictures and videos ...
of all the dresses and re-try on dresses, which was wonderful!!! There was no pressure to buy and they were super knowledgeable and the selection was incredible! I showed Pamela several dresses that I liked and she was able to pick the dresses out or find a more affordable version of a dress that was within budget. I would HIGHLY recommend Maggi Bridal! Cannot wait to get my dress!
Barrie was able to see us the afternoon we called. When we arrived, she ensured that we were all wearing masks and that we sanitized our hands. She took the time to understand our ...
unique situation and she helped my daughter find a gown that made her eyes dance and sparkle. If that wasn’t enough, Barrie helped my daughter find the perfect gown for 1/3 the amount I told her I had budgeted! I do wish that we could’ve stored the gown and altered it at the store instead of taking it home with us, however.
I had a wonderful experience at Maggi Bridal. I fell in love with a Justin Alexander sample sale dress I saw on the website. When I called to inquire about the dress and make an ap...
pointment, Barrie invited me to try it on that same day – she even kept the salon open late so I could make it there after work! Since I bought my dress almost 11 months before my wedding, they were able to safely keep it in storage for me until my alterations began. Barrie was readily available to offer advice and answer questions about everything from alterations to dress preservation.
I had such a great experience at Maggi Bridal! The consultants are all so friendly, patient, and helpful.

off the racks. My consultant found me the perfect dress and they had a coordinating hairpiece in store that I also purchased through them. They made the whole process so easy!
What a great little bridal salon! Hidden gem. Stopped by on a whim to see if we could make an appointment to come back later. Pamela was wonderful and was able to fit us in right...
then. She asked questions and offered suggestions. I didn't feel rushed or pressured. I found my dream dress and can't be more excited. Great follow up from Pamela on being able to "rush" my dress so I wouldn't be stressed out. Highly recommend this location.
I finally found my dress, in the place I least expected! My wedding was on a tight budget - $1,000 was the absolute max for my dress. So I immediately wrote off Maggi, thinking I c...
ouldn't afford it. I went to 4 different places before checking their website again and discovering a sample sale - there was the perfect dress, and in a workable size, for $500! I was nervous going in that the staff would be pushy or judgemental, but they were not at all. In fact, it was the friendliest service I had gotten. They even put the dress on a brief hold so I could get there to try it (it was the only one of its kind since it was a sample sale). With the savings I was able to bring it to a top-notch tailer! So all in all, don't write them off if you're on a budget, just keep checking back!
Pamela was wonderful to work with. She was patient, kind, listened to my dress preferences and respected my budget. Pamela actually picked out my wedding dress! The store was clea...
n, and easy to find and I was the only client in the store for both my appointment and when my dress arrived in the store which I appreciated!

resses. Took the time to guide me to selecting the PERFECT dress for me. Made it easy to make mild changes and order. The dress came in quickly and they were able to provide further recommendations for alterations, veil, etc., as needed. Amy and all who work there are amazing and are so passionate about their jobs.
I worked with Pamela and everything was wonderful. She listened to what I wanted in a dress and respected my budget. I ended up with a perfect dress and veil. Pickup was easy, and ...
when I remembered two days before the wedding that I needed to get my dress cleaned, they were able to get me in! They also referred me to Joanne in Garner to alter my dress, and she is MAGICAL!

what I liked and didn’t like. I never felt rushed during my appointment or pushed to make a purchase. When my dress came in, it was easy to make a pick-up appointment, and I didn’t feel rushed while trying my dress on again. I highly recommend Maggi Bridal and Pamela!!

wledgeable about styles, fabrics, costs, and truly listened to my preferences. Thank you Maggi’s Bridal for making my day so enjoyable, stress-free and helping me find the dress of my dreams! Pamela, YOU ROCK!
I spent a weekend trying on dresses and after visiting other stores, I had figured out the two styles that I was drawn to, but none of the other dresses had been quite right. At Ma...
ggi Bridal, they had dresses in both of the styles I had been admiring. These dresses were just what I had been looking for! Each was beautiful, but Pamela patiently helped me figure out which look I would be more comfortable in on my wedding day (one being a little more sexy and the other more conservative). She even was able to arrange for one of the dresses in a slightly different variation (different fabric and belting) to be brought in from another one of their stores so that I could try on the two perfect dresses side by side. After being able to spend time in both dresses, it was clear which dress was the winner! Pamela was amazing in helping me talk through what I liked about each dress and how I ultimately wanted to feel on my wedding day. I am so excited about the dress I found and can't wait for it to arrive!
Thanks Pamela and Maggi Bridal for helping me find my dress!
I had the best experience at Maggi Bridal all thanks to Pamela. Within just minutes of talking about my likes and dislikes, Pamela was able to pull dresses she felt I would like, a...
nd she did fantastic! Each dress there is beautiful and there is a wide selection for every budget. The stores relationship with designers is unique in that some designers allow customization to add or take away from their dresses. I chose this route with a designer and was able to create just the dress I had in mind. I would definitely recommend this store to any bride-to-be!
I worked with Pamela, and she was amazing. I ended up finding my dress here, and I'm so excited.
I am SO glad that I found Maggi Bridal! They gave me the full bridal experience as well as an affordable dress. I got compliment after compliment on my dress on my wedding day. It ...

tands this is a huge decision and only wants the bride to be absolutely in love with the dress.
Speaking of the dress, all of them are gorgeous. Making a decision between them is definitely the hardest part. If you're in the Raleigh Area, I would definitely recommend Maggi Bridal!
I had a great experience at Maggi Bridal. Ann was my bridal consultant and helped me pick a variety of dresses to try on. She was very thorough and no-nonsense, which I liked – I f...
elt like she understood my attitude towards dress shopping and matched it. Their dressing rooms (more like "sections" of the store as they were bigger than most places I visited) are also nicely furnished and private. Once I found the dress I loved on my second visit – Ann encouraged me to come back for a trunk show – she kept the shop open late for me while my mom and I took pictures, submitted the order, and celebrated. :) I'd definitely recommend visiting Maggi.
Katelyn did an amazing job helping me find my dress. So happy with Maggi's!
