Shop Marianne’s if you want a designer wedding dress for under a grand (not a guarantee, but mine was). Evelyn at Marianne’s Bridal Outlet was so sweet and helpful. Marianne’s was the only place I shopped and I bought and brought home my dress that day. Where it is an outlet shop, limited sizes are available, however after purchasing a dress several sizes too big, Evelyn referred me to Mimoza at Clothes Clinic in West Boylston where my dream dress was made to fit like a glove!
I couldn’t recommend Marianne’s bridal enough! Everyone there was so pleasant to interact with.
I had my appointment with Marianne and you can truly tell she loves what she does. From the moment we walked in her attention was directed to learning what our elopement plan was, to how we met, what dresses I like/dislike, etc. she was never “salesy” in the way she talked/recommended things… she would tell you her opinion (if you asked). It almost felt like having a big sister dress shopping with you!
Short story: I got a designer dress and beautiful veil, but didn't have to pay a fortune.
Long story: The representative Evelyn took great care of me and my entourage of ladies as we searched for The One Dress to rule them all.
We purchased the champagne package due to the number of ladies I was bringing with me (which had snacks and a bottle of bubbles) but also it was really nice to have the outlet to ourselves which is part of the package.
This day, was a big moment for me as I desired to feel special and comfortable... and I didn't want to be pressured into choosing a dress I didn't want (I have a tendency to people please). There were those in my entourage that would have swayed my decision, but Evelyn kept watch and made constructive comments about how I carried myself in the dresses I tried on, how I liked certain styles over others, and she assisted me with trying on ones that I may not have considered as a test. What I thought would be the start of a very long search spanning months, turned into my one stop shop. I found my dress, and yes, tears came to my eyes once the veil was put on (which they also provide).
My five stars is the support I received from Evelyn, and the gorgeous dresses they had to choose from.
Had a great experience at Marianne’s!
The shop is clean, gorgeous and welcoming! I worked with Marianne, the owner. She was kind, personable and honest! I love how everyone I was with was included in picking out dresses to try on. This made the experience more fun! Marianne has tons of different styles to appeal to everyone! This was my first dress shopping experience and I left with my wedding dress within an hour! It is a stunning dress at an affordable price and I cannot wait to wear it on my wedding day! Her welcoming environment and affordable pricing can’t be beat!
Thanks to the staff, I felt like a royal princess on my wedding day. Your staff is so welcoming and wonderful. Your selection and pricing is incredible!
Marianne was wonderful!! This was such comfortable and stress free experience! She really knew how to listen and narrow it down to what I was looking for! Even thought I wasn’t sure what that was! Marianne made me feel beautiful in everything, while ultimately picking the perfect dress for me! She was so helpful and professional!! I couldn’t be happier with the dress she pulled and I can’t wait to put it on for my big day! I would highly recommend anyone to go visit her studio!
My dress shopping experience at Marianne's was amazing! The staff made me feel like a true bride and were extremely helpful in picking out dresses and giving feedback. The shop is super cute! I immediately fell in love with my dress and was pleasantly surprised at the reasonable price. I received so many compliments on it the day of the wedding. Would highly recommend shopping here for any future brides!
Everything was lovely! It was a peaceful welcoming environment for my big family to come and see me pick out my wedding dress!
I had such a wonderful experience at Marianne’s today! My appointment was quick and painless. Marianne herself helped pick out dresses I had in mind and a few of her own. I ended up with a dress I would have never have thought of myself but I am IN LOVE!! Wonderful experience and customer service. Would reccomend to any bride looking for the full experience of a bridal shop that will keep you within budget!!
I was extremely lucky that the dress I ended up picking came in that day. It was perfect. The sales associate was incredibly kind and attentive. She helped me figure out what kinds of modifications I might want to make to the dress. I did go in having already tried on a few dresses so I had an idea what I was looking for. When I put it on, I knew. They recommended a fantastic seamstress to me who made me feel like a princess on my day. I wish I could wear this dress every day.
What a fantastic experience! Found the perfect dress here. The staff was so helpful, I walked out with my dress that day, and spent less money than I expected to without compromising on the quality of the dress.
I bought my dream dress from Marianne’s last weekend and had a wonderful experience! Her boutique is so beautiful and the dress selection is amazing. This was the first and only bridal store I visited. I worked with Evelyn, who helped me the entire appointment, and she was incredible! She never made me feel pressured to buy a dress that day. Luckily, we found the perfect dress and she had a great eye for matching my vision. The best part is, if you find your dress, you take it home that SAME day! I’m looking forward to working with the seamstress she recommended and going back to buy a veil.
My appointment at Marianne’s with Carissa was my first and only dress appointment! Carissa helped me find a dress that fit into my vision and that was under my budget! I also bought my veil from Marianne’s and that really tied the whole look together. I was able to take my dress and veil home that day!
Marianne’s also recommended using the Clothes Clinic for alterations. Mimoza is AMAZING. She took a dress that was too big for me and made it perfect. She even was able to take the lace off of my mom’s wedding gown to add to mine.
Prices can't be beat (retail price my dress would have been well over budget, but at their shop I got it under budget with room to spare for alterations!) I also loved my experience - they let me sit and decide between two dresses for nearly 45 minutes without pressure which was so kind (because of their business model, they really only have what they have when they have it). They even held a dress for me for a week before my try-ons because I spotted it on their instagram and it was my size, and I was so nervous it'd be gone by my try-on. I will say though, you just have to be a little careful. A couple of the dresses I tried on had minor tears near the seams (which would have been altered out anyway), so you just need to pay attention to detail. My dress's zipper was broken on purchase, and they paid to replace it. Also, the seamstress the recommend - Clothes Clinic in Boylston - was AMAZING and so reasonably priced. Great experience all around.
Marianne’s was recommended to me by a family member and I couldn’t be more thankful. The shop is beautiful and even though it’s a small place they have a great selection. Plus, their inventory is always changing, so you could go back a few times and find different things. Our consultant listened to what I liked and didn’t like, and we all (my mom, brother, me, and consultant) picked out a few dresses for me to try. I ended up going with the first one I tried on (!) and took it home that day. Even though the dress was several sizes too big (14, I’m an 8), Marianne’s recommended a tailor who made it perfect.
My overall experience here was so nice, and their inventory is super affordable! I was able to take home a fabulous dress that day that probably would have cost twice as much in a “regular” shop. If you’re a bride on a budget or tight schedule, you have to check this place out!
Wonderful experience. Found an absolutely gorgeous Martina Liana dress here. Marianne was lovely to work with and made me feel beautiful.
I wish I could give 4.5 stars but I'm going down to 4 for me specifically. I had a wonderful experience at Marianne's Bridal outlet but you need to remember that they are an outlet and the dress you try on, is the dress you are taking home (they don't order other sizes). I don't remember the name of the dress consultant (young blond woman) but she did awesome given my sizing. My only "ding" for the place is their selection for smaller brides; I'm very petite bride and they really didn't have anything below a size 6 or 8 (and I would be smaller). In fact, most/many were a size 10 or 12. The dress consultant put me into dresses and pinned them so that I could see what I truly liked. This was really great as I changed what I wanted after seeing some dresses on me. They do have a nice selection of different styles. I would highly recommend the outlet to any other women.
I had such a wonderful experience getting my wedding dress at Marianne's Bridal Outlet! Our appointment was with Carissa who was knowledgeable, accommodating, and genuinely kind. I tried on as many dresses as I liked and never felt rushed. The shop is clean, beautiful, and calm. Being an indecisive person, she allowed me to put a dress on hold while I thought about it. Unexpectedly, after looking at the pictures my sister took of the other dresses I tried on, I fell in love with a dress that I had originally dismissed. I contacted the shop, and they got back to me right away. Carissa came in the next day and had the dress I fell in love with pulled from the rack ready for me to try on (not the one I had put on hold), and I was able to bring it home that same day! She also helped me pick out a veil to complement the dress and my style perfectly. The price could not be beat and I would recommend Marianne's to anyone and everyone!
as a plus size bride I was a bit nervous to try on dresses. Marianne's was the first and only store I went to because I found my dream dress there. they had a variety of dresses in all different styles and sizes. Carissa was very helpful and listened to what I liked and disliked I ended up picking a dress she selected for me that I would have never thought I would like. it was such a great experience.
I bought my wedding dress at Marianne's over the weekend & could not be more satisfied with my overall experience! This was my second time shopping at her store, & I was not expecting to find a dress, but I was pleasantly surprised with the selection of new gowns compared to my first appointment only a month or so prior. Evelyn, one of the consultants, worked with me both times & offered amazing support. I would recommend Marianne's to every bride looking for a dress on a budget!
So happy I found Mariannes bridal outlet!! Made me feel extremely beautiful and confident! Very patient and she helped find over 15+ dresses to try being all different styles! Great price and even better service!
This was my first and only dress appointment - Carissa helped me out and was fantastic! They had an amazing selection and were very transparent about pricing. Extremely happy with my dress and so glad I went to Marianne’s first! :)
Marianne is exactly who you need when searching for your dress. Although I left without “the one,” I can’t say enough positive things about her. I went in feeling very nervous, so nervous that I didn’t bring my entourage for the first time. But Marianne made me feel comfortable. She was honest, tactful and made the experience fun. If I wasn’t feeling a dress she was right there with me and supporting all my decisions. She was never pushy, which is so important for such a monumental purchase. 10 stars!
I had been to about three bridal salons before coming to Marianne's, one of which included the obligatory David's Bridal trip. Needless to say, I didn't find my dress because of the environment and selection of dresses. I wasn't comfortable at David's Bridal since you share the space with strangers who are almost part of your appointment. The other two studios were cold, the staff made me feel like I was an inconvenience to them and they brought random dresses for me to try on that were not my style, despite me telling them what I was looking for. And I felt rushed.
As soon as I walked into Marianne's Bridal I felt completely comfortable. I had Marianne for my appointment and she welcomed me inside, gave me a tour of her beautiful and warm store and we selected dresses together. She was super friendly and it put me at ease immediately! She didn't rush me and she made the whole experience so much easier! She had a TON of beautiful dresses and the best part is that they are 50-75% off. I would HIGHLY recommend Marianne's Bridal Outlet!!!
Marianne was so personable and helped
me find the perfect dress! She was attentive and made me feel very comfortable during the whole process
This was my first and only dress appointment. The staff were excellent, and the prices are super affordable. Couldn't recommend them more!
Marianne’s shop was fantastic! Great selection, great prices, and great service. I bought my dress there yesterday and I love it!
I just left my appointment at Marianne’s with THE DRESS! This was my first (and only) wedding dress appointment and I am still in awe. Carissa made me feel so at ease while trying on every dress and never made me feel pressured about buying or nervous about saying I did or didn’t like something. I would highly recommend booking an appointment here!!
Hello, I am the MOB and will tell you if you don't go here you are missing out! Marianne was amazing and got my daughter to try dresses outside her comfort zone and lo and behold-- we bought one she could never imagine herself wearing but looks amazing and is at least half of what we had budgeted for dress. This place has high end designer dresses for a fraction of the cost but you get boutique service! I am so glad we found this place. We canceled our appointment at Vows after finding a dress my daughter loved here. Betsy Phipps
I had originally made an appt for my grandma and I to go to a local salon who cancelled last minute and then stumbled upon this gem. Very easy to make an appt. Owner's niece helped us find the perfect dress!
If you are looking for a designer wedding dress for your special day; please make your way to Marianne’s Bridal Outlet. Marianne made my shopping experience a dream. Marianne was attentive, kind, and patient, and most importantly made me feel Special. Marianne made my bridal entourage and me comfortable and at ease. Let's not forget the music 🎶, great times!!! Lastly, the prices are affordable. Thank you, Marianne ♥️💍
I WISH I WENT HERE FIRST. I cannot recommend Marianne’s enough. I had a really rough experience at another bridal shop where I felt kinda pressured to buy a dress I wasn’t 100% in love with. And then panicked when I brought it home realizing I made a big mistake. A friend of mine referred me to this bridal shop and I literally cannot thank her enough.
Marianne listened to me and my chaotic explanation of what happened and alllllllll my feelings; and then came in and gave me the BEST experience. She made me try on so many dresses even if I wasn’t keen on them just to make sure I ruled them out. I actually ended up liking something I didn’t think I would. She took the time to make sure I loved the dress I picked and she was so patient and kind. So motherly actually!
With a super tight budget after spending it on the first dress…she helped me find something I could afford. I really can’t thank her enough for basically saving the day, because I was fully prepared to get married in a dress I didn’t love. I can’t wait to pick my new dress up, such a relief!
I had such a great experience here! I’m very petite and although they didn’t carry any dresses in my size, Evelyn still did a fantastic job with my fitting. Highly recommend!!
Easily scheduled an appointment via email and had an excellent experience from start to finish! Marianne was prompt, professional, and found me the perfect dress (at an awesome price!).
10/10 recommend! Evelyn was amazing and made me feel like what I wanted was always the number one priority she listened to what I wanted and was so amazing. I went in not thinking I would find the dress and ended up saying yes to the most beautiful dress and you CANNOT beat the prices will always recommend to any soon to be bride!! Thank you Evelyn again you are great!
Wonderful staff and gorgeous dresses for an affordable price. HIGHLY recommend ❤️👰💍
Marianne's was a wonderful place to buy my dress. I worked specifically with Carissa, and she was very supportive of my process. I'd been to a couple of shops before and still wasn't certain about what I wanted. Carissa listened to my perspective and helped me filter through various dresses to narrow my choices down. I trusted her experience and was open to trying on a style I wasn't sure about, but it turned out to be my dress in the end! It was hard to decide because my Mom wasn't there, so they waited patiently while I called her, while still trying on dresses, to get reassurance from her. They were very kind to my fiancé and friend, and made them feel part of the process too. Marianne joined the tail end of my appointment and had some very kind and supportive words to offer. I can't recommend them enough as they are very understanding, supportive, and kind through this sometimes emotional process.
Marianne's is unbelievable. Marianne herself helped me find my dream dress. We spoke briefly and she knew exactly what I was looking for. Unlike other places I tried, she was able to clip the dresses perfectly so I could get an accurate idea of how they would look with alterations. She was realistic about how dresses could and couldn't be altered. She was patient, friendly, helpful, and so accommodating. I found my dress, got an AMAZING deal, and left with my dress in hand that day. I couldn't be happier.
I cannot recommend Marianne's enough. I went last week while I had family in town to look at wedding dresses. Marianne was warm and welcoming. Her new shop is gorgeous and she has curated an amazing selection of gowns. You can tell she has so much experience and passion for this work and helped me find the perfect dress (at an amazing price)! We all had a wonderful time and I only wish I could keep going back again and again. If you are anywhere near the central Massachusetts area, this shop is well worth your time.
I had a great experience with Marianne at her new shop. This was my first time looking for a dress so I was a bit nervous & overwhelmed. Marianne calmed my nerves and listened to all of my thoughts and opinions. She also was stellar at giving me her opinions while also being able to read my energy when I was trying on the dress. I found my dress after one visit and the price was like none other! I would 100% recommend checking this boutique out before going to any other store!
I honestly had no idea what to expect when I first heard about Marianne's Bridal Outlet but everything about my experience there FAR surpassed my expectations. Marianne herself greeted me when I came in for my appointment. We had a whole room to ourselves and two consultants helping us out. I ended up finding my dream dress and Marianne even held it for me for a night while I made my final decision. The best part was that I ended up getting a designer dress for outlet pricing and walked out of the boutique with it. I would recommend Marianne's Bridal Outlet to any bride looking for a beautiful dress!
I had the BEST experience at Marianne’s Bridal! The salon is gorgeous and made me feel extremely bridal. I tried on about 5 different dresses before finding the one! They were super flexible with letting me schedule a second appointment before picking my dress. Carissa was amazing!!! She pulled so many beautiful gowns for me to try on and honestly, they were all amazing. I'm so thankful for Carissa and Marianne and all their help!! I can't wait to wear my dress!!
I love my dress. When I put it in I could not take it off. So beautiful it looks like a 5k wedding gown. But is priced much lower. I can’t get over the low prices and beautiful gowns….. so many and I am glad I found my one!
My fiancée and I decided to go dress shopping together. We were both nervous as we didn't know what to expect. However, as soon as we stepped into the shop, we were immediately greeted and put at ease. Marianne and Clarissa were AMAZING. They listened to what we wanted, and helped us find dresses that we loved while also flattering our different body types. They were incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and just generally upbeat, excited, and passionate about what they were doing. My fiancée and I ended up finding dresses we adored (and within our budget, too). I highly recommend Marianne's Bridal Outlet to anyone in the market for a wedding dress! We couldn't have been happier with our experience.
We had a great experience at Marianne’s! I’m in love with my dress! They pulled great dresses that I didn’t think would look good but after trying them on found that they looked amazing! The dress I picked was one I didn’t choose on the rack. I’m so glad they pulled it for me. I LOVE IT!!
I highly recommend Marianne's Bridal! Marianne is very warm, welcoming, helpful, and honest. She is incredibly knowledgable and has many different designer dresses and styles to select from. You cannot beat her service, selection and prices. Thank you Marianne for a great experience!
I went to Marianne's shop after going to a big-name bridal place twice and having a terrible experience both times. I brought with me my 6 month old son who she accepted with open arms even when he was cranky! I found a beautiful dress at a great price. It was as if she knew my style and exactly what I wanted. She was so supportive and is great at what she does! She even took memorable pictures of my son and I! I highly recommend!
Truly a magical experience! I had little idea of what I was really looking for and Marrianne walked me through the whole process confidently. She was so patient and kind with me, and made me feel like royalty. The dresses are absolutely GORGEOUS and insanely AFFORDABLE!
A local place for me. I walked in for my appointment had no idea what I was looking for. They were so helpful and she had me try on all types of dresses. I had no expectations that i was going to leave with my dress but in an hour I found the dress. Also love the cost of the dresses here.
I bought my dress from Marianne last month, and she was an absolute dream to work with! She went above and beyond, personally guiding me through my options one-on-one and letting me try an absurd number of dresses. The selection is lovely with quite a variety on offer, and I couldn't believe the price tags when I saw them--half what I was expecting! Fantastic if you're looking for a stunning dress on a budget. Couldn't recommend her shop more!
I had an appointment at Marianne's Bridal Outlet last weekend after it was recommended to me. The experience was much more tailored than the previous bridal store I had gone to. And the dresses were much prettier and varied! Carissa and Marianne were so kind, attentive and knowledgeable. They let me try on more gowns than I ever thought they would. The dress I chose was less than half of its original price! The overall experience was fantastic even though I am not someone who typically wears dresses and was shopping on a budget. Would recommend Marianne's anyone.
Carissa was amazing with my family and I recently. This shop has all styles of dresses, fabrics, and sizes (inclusing plus sizes) at great prices. I found the most perfect dress that I cannot wait to wear and Carissa ordered a new vail to match. With product supply issues this year I was so relieved to walk out with a dress in hand knowing I had the right size, a dream design, and it was on budget. Thank-you for making this such a fun, easy experience.
The best bridal shop by far. Half priced dresses of amazing quality, one of a kind as well. Marianne was amazing, helped to pick out dresses in the style I liked and paid attention to what i liked and disliked. Said yes the dress here! Highly recommend her!
I had such an amazing experience with Marianne she is professional, knowledgeable, and fun! She helped me find my perfect dress! I wish I could do it all again it was so wonderful!!
My mom and I went today, and Carissa helped us out. She was super nice and helpful! I thought I wanted a mermaid or trumpet style but I ended up with an A-line and it’s absolutely gorgeous. My mom started crying so it was definitely a success lol. I never dreamed it could be this easy; this was our first shop. Thank you Carissa and Marianne’s Bridal!
I had an appointment with Carissa this past weekend, and it was a dream. I made an appointment by calling a few weeks in advance - and they had weekend times available! I brought two bridesmaids and my mom, and Marianne's was very welcoming to all of us. They had a huge selection of all sorts of dresses that you buy off the rack. I tried on... maybe 20 dresses? Carissa encouraged me to try things outside my comfort zone, helped me get past a few body image issues, helped me narrow down to my favorite silhouette, and then narrow to my top 3 dresses. Carissa and Marianne took their time to listen, help find things, and eventually helped me make a decision. I was so pleased with my experience and would recommend this place to any bride - especially one who is working on a budget - I think all of of the dresses I tried were $500-700, which is expensive for a dress I'll wear once but totally affordable compared to other bridal places - and it was a designer dress (Rebecca Ingram, though I also tried lots of Maggie Sottero...) They have sample sales regularly, apparently, so keep an eye out for those as well!
I had the honor of having an appointment with Marianne today, she is wonderful!!! The shop is gorgeous & she has a very large selection of dresses. I was skeptical because I I had no luck so far & never looked good in anything. Marianne knew exactly what I was interested in, & she made me feel beautiful in every dress I tried on! I loved every single one. I ended up finding my dream dress in my price range & am so very happy I found her! Thank you so much Marianne.
I cannot speak highly enough of my experience at Marianne's. I am not someone who enjoys clothes shopping, and I was somewhat prepared for wedding dress shopping to be difficult or that I wouldn't find anything I liked. While I will admit that my experience at David's matched those expectations, that was not the case at Marianne's. There were both lots of dresses to choose from, and it was a shopping experience that actually made me feel good about myself. Carrissa did an amazing job of both listening to what I wanted and also suggesting dresses that I might not have considered on my own, but which ended up looking great. The dress I ended up buying was one that had two features that I'd initially rejected because I thought wouldn't look good on me (mermaid cut and spaghetti straps), but which I was willing to try because I trusted that Carrissa knew what she was talking about. I'm so glad that I was willing to give it a try because the dress is gorgeous, perfect for my wedding, and well within my budget. I also appreciated how, when I came to pick the dress up, I was able to try it back on to confirm fit, and Marianne even took a bunch of pictures of me in the dress with different veils so I could send them to family across the country. If you're looking for a wide selection of lovely, affordable dresses and personal attention from some very knowledgeable women, look no further than Marianne's.
One piece of advice is that if you try calling and get the voicemail, just send them an email through their website. I seemed to always call at times they weren't available, but Marianne was super responsive when I used email.
I had the pleasure of meeting Marianne today to try on some of her dresses, and my goodness did she know exactly what I needed! This was the 4th bridal store I’ve been too, and yet the only one where my experience was truly charming. I walked out with the dress of my dreams, veil of my dreams, and the experience of a life time. Thank you Marriane! Your next endeavor should be to teach the other shops how to run a bridal dress store.
Marianne’s Bridal Outlet is absolutely wonderful! My appointment was with Marianne herself who is such an amazing woman! Her shop is adorable and I was her only appointment so the whole experience felt so private and special. She picked out a bunch of dresses for me to try and let me, my mom, and sister walk around and pick what we wanted. I tried on what was probably close to 40 dresses and our appointment lasted over two hours. There were a few that I liked that she set aside for me to try again at the end and I ended up buying one of the first dresses that I tried on! Her prices are unbeatable and there were so so many options. All of her dresses are off the rack and I brought my dress home the day I bought it! The whole experience was absolutely wonderful and I can’t recommend her enough!
