Got so many compliments on my dress!
This place was amazing! They really gave me time to try on a ton of dresses and helped make my decision easier. It was a much more intimate setting than some of the bridal store chains and it was nice to have one person with you the whole time. When they altered my dress they added a small pocket on the inside so I could carry a token for someone I had lost on my wedding day. They also accommodated the addition of an off the shoulder wrap and got creative about how to keep it in place! Wonderful bridal salon, will recommend to everyone in the area!
I used Mimi's for my dress alterations and had a great experience. All staff were so friendly and approachable. Pricing was very transparent and they let me schedule an appointment just to get a quote for the work, which I really appreciated. All the work on the dress was done beautifully and super timely. They also made me wonderful videos of how to fasten and bustle my dress. On my wedding day, the dress fit absolutely perfectly and the bustle held through an entire night of dancing! I also got the most beautiful hair piece from their shop which got so many compliments!
I was extremely worried going into wedding dress shopping. Mimi’s was the first place I went. They were very nice and supportive. They had so many unique and beautiful dresses. I appreciated their help and patience in selecting the perfect wedding dress. They will also take care of the alterations and can store the dress as long as you need. I would highly recommend Mimi’s Bridal Boutique!
Mimi’s really does provide the perfect bridal boutique experience. Sandra really truly
studied my questionnaire I filled out about what I was looking for so from the moment I walked in the door she was prepared and already had a few dresses pulled that she had in mind! Early on in my appointment I was pretty sure I had found “the dress” but she was ultra patient letting me really use the time in my appointment to absolutely
make sure that it was indeed the one and to rule out any uncertainties without trying to push a quick sale. Towards the end of my appointment when I was certain and was exploring veil options, the owner Yvette found the most beautiful and perfect veil she had put away in storage that was exactly was I was looking for! Throughout the alterations process Rochelle really was a miracle worker and despite me losing a great deal of weight over the course of the year between my dress purchase and my wedding, she was able to make the dress look and fit flawlessly. Overall I appreciated the entire staff’s friendliness and enthusiasm from start to finish. It’s very clear the ladies at Mimi’s love their jobs and love working there. I’m so excited to go back to pick up my dress from being preserved after my event and to even share pictures from my photographer when I finally receive them!
Absolutely wonderful! I recently purchased my dress from Mimi’s had a great experience. I went in very open and unsure of what I liked or wanted. They were super accommodating and helpful in the process. They didn’t put any pressure on me and made me feel super comfortable. Highly recommend!
I originally purchased my wedding dress to wear in May of 2021, but due to the pandemic, I ended up wearing it in May this year instead. Mimi's Bridal Boutique is a magical place and wonderful to work with. Setting up my first appointment was easy and I appreciated how they make an effort to keep the boutique organized and spotless. They have so many gorgeous dresses to choose from in a variety of styles! Their alterations department is great to work with. They will happily help you customize the dress you pick and help make adjustments for your wedding dress to fit you better. Thank you so very much!
Had an absolutely wonderful experience at Mimi’s! Every dress they pulled for me was absolutely beautiful, and the one I ended up with was beyond perfect. Everyone was so kind and helpful, and I could not be happier with the whole experience.
MiMis' Bridal was amazing from day one. The team helped me find the dress and from then on the experience was perfect. I had added sleeves to the dress and the alteration department was perfection. They fitted the dress so perfect to me. I had received so many compliments on the dress from the sleeves ( that came off for the reception :) ) to the beautiful veil for the chapel. This is such a beautiful boutique with the most amazing and talented staff and I would recommend them to anyone.
I can't say enough great things about Mimi's! The staff encouraged me to look at dresses beyond what I was expecting walking in, and that led me to the perfect dress! Although I found the one, I'm positive I could have walked out of there with any of their dresses. Their selection is so gorgeous. Everyone there is incredibly sweet and helpful throughout the entire process. I cannot recommend them enough!
I’m deeply upset with this business. They didn’t communicate well with me at all and sprung info on me last minute that made me uncomfortable. So glad I didn’t get me dress here, very unprofessional and very rude.
Awful customer service I only tried on six dresses for my hour and a half appointment . After saying I didn’t like the neckline of a dress she put me in two more dresses with the same neckline and ended up ending my appointment 30 min early.
Yvette and the ladies at Mimi’s are a treasure. From the moment my mother and I walked into the bridal salon back in early January of 2021, I have felt confident that I made the best choice in where I purchased my dress. Yvette was so sweet and accommodating throughout the entire experience leading up to my wedding date. I purchased a Maggie Sottero dress through a trunk show they hosted, and every-time I walked into their shop, I kept seeing this dress and remarking on how lovely it was, before remembering that it was the exact one that I picked. It was definitely meant to be!
Their team hemmed and fitted my dress perfectly. They were so reassuring even when I was worried it might be too tight… they were right that it would relax a bit through out the wedding day. They know their craft! They steamed it beautifully and made every encounter at Mimi’s a pleasant and uplifting one. The dresses they carry are all so elegant and beautiful!
I also purchased a veil and hairpiece through Mimi’s and received SO MANY compliments on how gorgeous the clip was.
Needless to say, Yvette has wonderful taste, is so kind, and I’m going to miss our interactions!
Without a doubt, buy a dress from here. Buy a hairpiece from here. You have to go here!
The staff at Mimi's are so friendly and helpful! Everything was great with the process, from picking out the right dress to alterations. I bought my dress during Black Friday weekend and received a discount and only needed alterations one time.
I don’t think I can say enough good things about Mimi’s! Everything from the atmosphere to the dress selection and employees was 10s across the board. Clare helped make finding my dress the most enjoyable experience! She was so attentive, kind and patient with me I can’t thank her enough. All the dresses she pulled were exactly the styles I envisioned. And she even pulled ones that happily took me by surprise. If you’re still in search of a bridal boutique look no further!
I never thought I’d find my dress first time out, but I did with Cat’s amazing help!! After talking a little bit and showing her some Pinterest pictures, Cat knew exactly what dresses to pull. The dress that brought me there ended up not being the one. However Cat picked the perfect dress and veil! I knew it was the one the moment she put the veil on and I started to cry.
In the world of COVID they made us feel comfortable with everyone wearing masks and only 2 guests. They also gave me time to make a decision. They luckily didn’t have an appointment after mine and let us run over almost an hour.
Highly recommend Mimi’s and Cat! Looking forward to when the dress arrives!
After ordering a few inexpensive wedding dresses online because I was not really sure what we were doing as far as a wedding went I finally went to a real bridal boutique. Thank gosh I did, because we ended up having a more traditional outdoor wedding with friends and family. Mimi and her crew were amazing at helping me find a dress in my budget and made everything so easy. I didn't feel pressured to purchase and I am so happy with how my dress turned out. It felt like me! I danced the night away and got lots of compliments on it.
I absolutely loved my wedding dress from Mimi's Bridal Boutique! Their on-site tailoring services were professional and the result was stunning! It was also such a convenience to be able to store my wedding dress and veil at the boutique until our wedding week! I definitely recommend this boutique for any Ann Arbor, MI bride to be!
My dress shopping experience was beyond amazing and effortless!!! I can’t express how worried I was about not finding “the” dress. As soon as I walked in I sat down with Claire, showed her a few inspiration pictures and she immediately was off to picking dresses off the racks. I tried on one of the dresses I had picked out but the second dress she chose WAS IT! They had a great selection of designers, they allowed my few friends and family to join, they were patient with me and listened to what I liked and disliked about all the dresses I tried on! I honestly couldn’t be happier with the whole experience. Wedding planning can be stressful but the dress shopping should be fun and Mimi’s exceeded my expectations!!
I visited 6 bridal shops and Mimi’s was by far the best. Small, intimate, a true boutique offering surprisingly economical options. Everyone is so kind and accommodating. I’m thrilled to have purchased my dress from them and will recommend you any bride.
100% recommend!!! They are so kind, absolutely wonderful to work with, and have beautiful dresses!
Great Service picking out my Wedding dress!
I visited a number of bridal salons in the southeastern Michigan area where I live for my Florida wedding and Mimi’s was far and away my favorite. They had such a wide selection across price points that I found the perfect dress and they were so accommodating of my taste and needs. Cat was so sweet and she remembered me the second time I visited and the dress I bought was actually the first one she had me try on (but still humored me and let me think I’d go with something else). I cannot wait to work with Ivette on the alterations and the custom veil we have planned.
After trying on over 70 dresses at a number of bridal salons and havin a very bad experience at a bridal salon in Indianapolis, Mimi's was a breath of fresh air! Every team member is kind, supportive, patient, and helpful. They really listened to my likes and dislikes and helped me find my dream dress for my 1/4/2020 destination wedding in Arizona. You can't go wrong with Mimi's!!
I was a little nervous walking into Mimi's because I thought it would be way out of my price range. Not only did I find my dress, but it was under budget <3 Clare was amazing and really listened to what I was looking for! I wish I could relive this experience over and over again :)
Salwa was amazing! She knew what looked good on me before I even knew! But more importantly, she let me find that out on my own. She found dresses that fit what I had wanted to try, but also pushed me to step outside of that just a little. Because of that I was able to say yes to the dress! The whole team at Mimi's was wonderful to work with!!!
Having lived in another state at the time of selecting a bridal gown, I came to Mimi's for alterations having purchased a dress elsewhere. The team at Mimi's was incredible. Never once did I feel like I was treated differently because I didn't purchase my dress through them. I knew from my initial appointment to receive a quote for alterations that they had my best interests at heart and were going to take good care of me and my dress! Their attention to detail was astonishing, little things that I would have never thought of were clearly explained and discussed with me from the cut of the armpit comfort when taking in the sides to the type of hook or button used in my bustle. They were kind enough to help me take a video to show my out of state matron of honor and mom how to bustle my dress and included tips and tricks! My alterations were done beautifully, including very intricate beading that had to be removed and then placed back on the dress. I looked and felt my best!
I have since returned to Mimi's for my gown cleaning and preservation.
Where do I even begin? Being the pickiest bride on this planet, I had gone to 15 bridal shops to find my dream wedding dress. Not only did Mimi's have the most beautiful selection of dresses, but the staff really made all the difference in my experience. Yvette quickly became like family (we ended up inviting her to our wedding because we loved her so much!). It was very obvious her mission was to make her brides the happiest they could be on their wedding day. It was never about the sales and I never felt pushed into making a decision, as I had been at multiple other stores. After selecting my dress, Yvette and her staff worked endlessly to alter it to the exact changes I had envisioned. They put up with my constant calls and fit me in for appointments whenever I needed. Yvette kept the store open after hours for me countless of times to work with me on creating my dream dress and they really went above and beyond (more than I could possibly put into words here). A special shoutout to Rachelle for putting up with my indecisiveness and working tirelessly to create 3 BEAUTIFUL sleeve options for my big day. My dress was absolutely perfect and I can't thank the team at Mimi's Bridal enough!
They have great selection of dresses and I was glad that I found my dress!
I had a lovely experience with Mimi's Bridal. For my 2nd time around, I had an elopement/destination wedding and only a couple months to plan. I was a walk in without a scheduled appt and Mimi was very accommodating to assit me. Yvette, one of her sales personel, ended up picking out a dress I would have never thought looked good on me but she definitely has a knack for it because I loved it enough to purchase it. The appts that followed were handIed by professional , courteous and down to earth ladies. I would highly recommend them.
I had a wonderful experience shopping at Mimi's Bridal Boutique! Although I wasn't successful in finding my dress there, the staff was so attentive and helpful in suggesting dress after dress. I was able to try on a lot as they get you in and out of dresses quickly. I would recommend anyone try shopping here for their dress!
This was my fourth bridal appointment and the previous I did not feel as though I had a true connection with the specialists. I had read numerous great reviews about Mimi's and now understand why! Their sales people are experienced and are like a family. They want to work with you and your budget for you to get the dress of your dreams. I wasn't persuaded to try on something I was not interested in or something that was hundreds of dollars outside my budget. There was no pushing and it was great! It was truly the best experience I could have asked for!
I cant say enough about Mimi's Bridal! This was my 4th appointment I had. The first 3 were horrific- nobody asked me any questions about what I wanted, about my wedding, or listening to my feedback. From the second I walked into Mimi's they knew exactly what to put me in, they connected with me and really found out what I was looking for. The service was next level, they made me feel so comfortable and valued. They have so many options and are willing to spend as much time with you as you need. I ended up finding the dress of my dreams which was not at all what I ever imagined I would pick. Go to Mimi's!!
I found my dream dress at Mimi's and I didn't even know what I wanted until I tried it on. The staff was very helpful even though they were busy. They even squeezed us in the following day so that my future mother in law could be there to see the dress as well.
I bought my dress at Mimi's and had a great experience. They were very helpful and gave good advice for finding a cut and style that was perfect for me.
Evett and Clair are the best! Very attentive and they helped me find my dream wedding dress ❤️❤️
This was the first place that I tried on wedding dresses at! My consultant understand my style from the moment I walked in the door. She was spot on and I walked out with my dress and accessories that same day!
Mimi's was amazing! I had origianally purchased a dress because it was cheap, and I thought I could make myself love it. But after alterations, I hated it, I called Mimi's they had me bring in my original dress, and helped me try on new dresses. The ladies in Mimi's were amazing, and they placed my in some very beautiful dresses. They worked with my budget and kept me within what I wanted to spend. I loved my experience at Mimi's and can't thank them enough for making me look beautiful on my wedding day.
I said yes to the dress today at Mimi’s and I couldn’t be happier. It was truly a magical experience all thanks to Yvette and Salwa who were my angels. They have a large selection of gowns and made the day fun and exciting. If your in southeast Michigan, you should definitely visit Mimi’s!
Mimi’s did an outstanding job organizing our bridal party’s dresses. They turned out beautifu! The staff members were helpful, friendly, and had reasonable prices for high quality gowns.
Mimi's was awesome! They had a ton of dress choices and were super helpful narrowing down what I wanted. I actually wasn't sure I was even going to wear a dress, and Clare was extremely understanding of that and really just let me guide the process and insta-veto a bunch of choices that didn't feel right to me. In the end I wound up with a beautiful wonderful dress that I absolutely love! Even though I started shopping for my dress super late, they were able to get one in on time for my wedding.
I also want to mention, for those of you who are looking for someplace like this - everyone we talked to at Mimi's was LGBT friendly and no one batted an eye when my soon-to-be wife and I walked in both looking for dresses there. They don't have any lesbian wedding photos on their website, which made me a little nervous going in, but don't worry! They are totally cool and we didn't run into any trouble.
Mimi's Bridal made the process of finding the prefect wedding dress so amazing. Their staff is absolutely incredible, and they have an huge selection of gorgeous wedding dress. I am so happy to have decided to get my dress from them, and would completely recommend them to anyone!!
Mimi’s was amazing. The girl who helped me was so kind and helpful. I had an idea of what I wanted and she brought in dresses exactly what I asked for and a couple Other styles I wouldn’t have typically chosen for myelf for fun. I ended up picking a dress she chose for me that was totally the opposite of what I thought I would get. I went to a couple other bridal shops after my first appointment but kept coming back to Mimi’s and the dress I ended up choosing. Thank you, Mimi’s!
Had a great experience at Mimi's! Called and scheduled a last minute appointment and they got me in right away. I worked with Salwa and she understood what I wanted better than I did! I loved each and every dress I tried on. The quality of dresses was great and Salwa helped me think through each dress and my preferences. The owner of the store met with my mother and I and helped get us a deal on the dress I loved. I wasn't expecting to buy a dress that day and left so excited about my purchase!
This shop not only is charming and relaxing, but the staff is extremely nice, helpful, and overall excellent at what they do! From the moment I arrived they devoted time to understanding what I was looking for with my destination and my budget. Their expert advice and smooth experience ultimately made me choose my dress from Mimi's! To wrap it all up, they tailored the dress beautifully and I had no concerns about how the dress would look. I highly recommend Mimi's if you want a great experience choosing the dress for your big day!
Thank you Mimi's!
I had an amazing experience at Mimi’s! They have a lovely shop and a great selection in a variety of price ranges. The sales staff is honest and truly seem to want to make your experience the best and help you look your best!
Clare did an amazing job helping me find the wedding dress of my dreams! She really listened to what I wanted/my style but was not pushy or overly opinionated. The boutique has a wonderful selection - including my favorite designer Hayley Paige. All of the staff was friendly and knowledgeable. They have many different options for payment plans, which I really appreciated!
I would highly recommend Mimi's to any bride searching for her perfect dress!
Dress shopping here was a breeze! The dress I chose needed a lot of alterations, but the staff at Mimi's has exceptional attention to detail and delivered exactly what I was hoping for! Their prices are reasonable and they deliver great service. I wore my mom's veil, and when we brought it in for my dress fitting they offered to steam it and have it ready to go when I picked up my dress, which was just one less thing for me to worry about! I couldn't be happier to have chosen Mimi's for my wedding.
My entire experience from start to finish deserves 10 stars!! From the minute I walked in, I knew I was in great hands! I went in looking for one specific gown, but after I met with Salwa, she encouraged me to keep my mind open and to give a few more gowns a try. Luckily I listened to her, and found the gown beyond my wildest dreams!! The ladies of Mimi's were more than accommodating of my need to purchase my dress on a payment plan, and helped me to create a solution to paying for my dress in a way that worked very well for me. I had lost a considerable amount of weight between purchasing my dress and the date of my wedding, and the ladies of Mimi's flawlessly tailored my gown to make it the perfect fit for my big day! I had not wanted to wear a veil, but after my now husband insisted I have one, I discussed my options with the ladies at the shop. When they discovered they didn't have exactly what I was looking for, Rachelle custom made my veil to be EXACTLY what I had hoped for- and it was the perfect accessory for my big day! I am honestly sad my wedding is over as I no longer get to spend time with the ladies of Mimi's, who made my wedding dress experience one I will truly cherish for the rest of my life. I tell everyone I know, once you're ready to find the gown of your dreams, Mimi's is the ONLY place to go!
Dress shopping was so easy thanks to Mimi's. I actually drove from south of Toledo to shop at Mimi's and I'd say it was definitely worth the trip. Looking online, it seemed like they had a good selection of designers in the "nice-but-not-ridiculous" price range. I wanted a dress shopping experience (and dress) that felt more personal than a Big Box Store like David's Bridal, but I didn't want to spend my whole wedding budget on one dress.
Mimi's is in a strip mall, but don't let that fool you. The interior feels cozy and intimate, and the staff make it feel very personal. You really have your consultant's full, undivided attention during your appointment.
The dressing rooms had a lot of privacy and I felt like I could show off dresses to my family and get their opinion without having to worry about random opinions from strangers or drama from brides in the other dressing rooms. It felt like we had the store to ourselves (even though it was bustling with other brides.)
My appointment was with Najla who was incredibly helpful. She was knowledgable and professional and able to give some constructive advice about what styles would look good on me, but she wasn't too pushy. Mimi's had a lot of variety of dresses and Najla encouraged me to try on a lot of different styles and helped me narrow down dresses I liked best. Eventually, I found "the one" -- the dress that really felt like me. It was such a beautiful dress -- elegant, but just a little playful. Najla suggested a long veil to go with it, and it was the perfect touch to complete the look (also really fun for the photographer!). I got so many compliments on it on my wedding day.
Mimi's sized me correctly and the dress arrived well in advance of the big day-- it fit me perfectly with almost no alternations (I had the straps taken in slightly and a bustle added.) The dress was extremely high quality, and looked a lot more expensive than it actually was.
I had thought dress shopping would be a big ordeal, possibly having to go to many stores and spend multiple weekends trying to find "the dress." It turns out we were done by lunchtime, and I spent the rest of the afternoon with my family eating at Zingerman's and window shopping in downtown Ann Arbor.
I am a very satisfied bride. Thank you Mimi's!!
This is the place where magic occurs. Phenomenal staff and wonderful dresses with affordable prices. Can't say enough about this store. Absolutely recommend it!
They were all so helpful and found me my perfect wedding dress and a beautiful veil.
I have nothing but great things to say about Mimi's Bridal Boutique. We ordered the bridesmaid dresses for my wedding from here and they were wonderful! The fitting was fun and stress-free, the ordering process was smooth, and picking up was super simple. While I did not order my wedding dress from Mimi's, I had them do all the alterations and they did a fantastic job! I would definitely recommend Mimi's to any bride out there!
Great staff, and super fun finding the dress of my dreams. We worked with Clare and she was super helpful and fun!
Thanks again!!!
Great and friendly staff! They were able to alter my dress exactly how I wanted it!
Choosing a wedding dress was something I was almost dreading with how particular I can be. Clare at Mimi's made those fears melt and took amazing care of us! We had a blast, found a dress, and couldn't decide at first. The second time we went back, Clare was super helpful again and this time we found THE dress! Thank you so much for all the help and being part of this exciting journey!
I had an amazing experience at Mimi's! First, let me brag on the store in general-- it is so elegant, private and comfortable inside down to the restroom, which made the whole process more calming for me. Additionally, they have a gorgeous selection of quality gowns with a nice range of price options, much better than another ann arbor wedding gown boutique I had called--I won't mention any names here but I was basically told not to waste my time or theirs as they didn't have dresses in my budget range. I have also been to David's bridal several times for friend's weddings and wasn't thrilled with the selection or experience. At Mimi's I found 2-3 dresses I loved right off but wanted to be sure, so we continued to pull and try on multiple dresses and then narrowed them down by trying on my top 3 choices again at the end. They were very patient with me throughout the process and not at all pushy. All of the staff I have worked with and spoken to have been so friendly, helpful and knowledgeable! They are also genuine and personable, a joy to work with, which I have found to be rare in Ann Arbor in general. They made the process effortless and worked with my timeline, this was a huge deal as I ended up moving last minute, prior to having it altered. I bought a sample dress as the designer line of my dress was not being sold there anymore, so it had to be taken in quite a bit. They worked on alterations until I was completely happy with it and it only took 2 alterations to get it to that point-- because they listen and know what they are doing! The dress fits perfectly, I feel so confident in it and I cannot wait to wear it on my wedding day! I have already recommended them to a friend and she ended up getting her dress here too! It looked amazing and she loved it!
I cannot say enough good things about Mimi's. Thanks so much for a wonderful experience and a stunningly beautiful gown!
It was very easy to work with the ladies at Mimi's Bridal Boutique, they were very professional and knowledgeable. My dress turned out beautiful and fit like a dream!
Long post but super helpful information! I called ahead because I found a dress online that I fell in love with. No other place in Michigan was carrying the dress. I went into Mimi’s to specifically look and try on that dress. When I went in I fell in love with the dress- it was GORGEOUS!!! The person helping me said they would measure me at the front and that the dress would be fitted to my exact measurements taken and that I wouldn’t have to do any alterations or very little because they are using my exact measurements to make the dress. I was excited to have the dress tailored to me because I was already going a little over budget to get my dream dress. Also, the lady helping me said the veil I picked out could have a second layer added so I could have it go over my face and that she would tell them at checkout to order it that way. We also discussed having my belt not sew onto the dress so I could wear the belt again after the wedding. When I went to go pick up the dress when it came in - that’s when the nightmare started. When I tried the dress on the person helping me said I should loose 10 pounds and the dress would fit better. (Mind you when I went into the shop to order the dress I was pretty recently recovering from a stroke and was a little heavier then because I couldn’t walk. When I went to try the dress on after the dress was made I had lost 8 -10 pounds). So I had this lady telling me I was fat and needed to loose weight and if I gained even one pound I would ruin the dress. She constantly kept putting me down in front of everyone I brought with me. My friends and family stood up for me and the lady kept telling them I needed to loose weight for the dress to look better. I also got my veil that day and it did not have the second layer to go over my face. And my belt did not have anything to attach around my waist- they told me that was done in alterations. I went home crying. I then called back to talk about my concerns and they told me to come back into the shop to see if they could work things out. Again, they put me with the same lady - who never once apologized. She told me that she had other brides wearing the same dress and they gave up breathing and sitting in the dress to look good in it and I should be like them. She again told me I can’t gain even one pound. Then they told me I should have been told about alterations being so much extra(but didn’t say it was their fault - they said every bride is told this but I was not), they never showed me the size chart and let me pick the size I wanted (they chose the smaller size hoping I would fit into it), and even the owner never apologized. They gave me a blusher which was nice but would have been nice if I received the correct veil instead of having two pieces to put into my hair. Now I’m left insulted and hurting. I have to pay way more to have my dress let out and my chests area made smaller, I have to deal with the belt situation also. The employees and owner here always made excuses to me and made it my problem(never theirs). They never once apologized or acknowledged my concerns. I left feeling hopeless and sad about my wedding dress not even wanting to try it on anymore.
LOVED the attention to detail and FAST turn around the ladies demonstrated at this shop. Very confident they could alter ANYthing! I couldn't have been happier with the dress.
Thank you Mimi's Team!
I was on my sixth bridal appointment (third one same-day!) when I headed to Mimi’s – I was exhausted, and I thought my heart was set on a dress I had previously tried on in Chicago. I felt I was wasting my time with one more appointment, but thank goodness I went. I am thrilled with my final decision and eternally grateful to Salwa, my consultant, who was exactly what I needed – patient, knowledgeable, attentive but not pushy, and genuine. I was caught off-guard when I tried on *the* dress – one that I didn’t even want to try on just seeing it on the hanger (thank you, Salwa!). I didn’t want to take it off, but I was still conflicted about the dress I thought was the front-runner. Salwa told my mom and I to leave, get some dinner and a glass of wine, and sleep on it. I had dreams of that dress, went back the next day to try it on again and knew immediately! Salwa knew all along. :) The service at Mimi’s doesn’t stop there – not only was I immensely satisfied with the shopping experience, Mimi’s alterations are impeccable. So many bridal shops will sell you a gown and send you on your way with a list of preferred tailors, which can be risky. Mimi’s entire staff, however, spent the time to make sure my dress fit me absolutely perfectly. Their attention to detail, patience and perfectionism was so appreciated – they even altered my mom’s dress and one of my bridesmaid’s dresses. I recommend the shop to anyone who will listen, and while (sadly) I don’t think I’ll need another wedding dress, if I’m ever in the market for an occasion dress or expert tailoring I will absolutely return to Mimi’s.
This little shop is fantastic! Although on the pricier side, they have gorgeous gowns! It was one of the first places I tried, and I found my dream dress! They don't try to upsell you, just help you find your dream dress. They are so friendly and make you feel special!
Mimi's Bridal Boutique was a fun and laid back environment to find my wedding dress! The entire staff makes you feel welcome, which I really appreciated. I also was able to find my dress in one visit, and was happy to learn that due to a trunk show, my main alterations required when ordering the dress (I'm only 5' 1" so mostly shortening the dress by like a foot) were free! My only suggestion would be during the fittings process, I felt that the staff was somewhat unbending when it came to how many times I was required to come in for fittings (which required flights for me, since I moved several states away). I understand that they want to make sure you walk out with a dress that is perfect, but it did require more money and travel than I was originally anticipating. All around, I highly recommend Mimi's and had a great experience and LOVED my dress!!
LOVED working with Mimi's Bridal in Ann Arbor. They were so patient with me especially when I was undecided. I wanted to add straps to my dress and they went to a special market to purchase material that I would love. I felt so special, they truly treat you like royalty there. I have nothing but good things to say about this wonderful bridal shop!!
I had the most amazing experience picking out my bridal gown. My situation was complicated because I live out of state, and they went above and beyond to help me. The staff was informative, patient, and very kind. They had a lot of variety, but I was not overwhelmed. It was a beautiful day and great experience. I highly recommend Mimi’s.
I recently bought my dress at Mimi’s and they are amazing! From the beginning, they have been wonderful to me, they genuinely care about their brides and give you that personal service that is hard to find. They are very knowledgeable about their dresses and were so informative from the first appointment about the make of each dress, material, etc. In addition, they were so gracious about my small budget and really bent over backwards for me to make sure that I found a dress that I loved that I could afford. I found my dream dress and veil here and I can’t say enough how wonderful they are. I would recommend Mimi’s to everyone looking for a dress or needing alterations.
I loved my experience with Mimi's bridal boutique. They were very helpful and professional for my first try on and for my later fittings and alterations. The alterations were perfect as well. I also live in Minnesota and they were able to accommodate my fittings with my visits home. I highly recommend Mimi's bridal boutique!
My consultant was great! Super helpful. I went during a trunk show, tried on a ton, and purchased my dream dress for a great price (I got the sample, which happened to fit perfectly!).
Mimi’s is awesome! Lots of selection for any price range and very personable. Very easy to work with and makes the process of finding your perfect gown easy!
I went in to Mimi’s with no intent to buy my dress that day. I had been to a couple other shops before heading to Mimi’s. My dress was the 2nd one I tried on and was the 1st dress that had everything I wanted. I didn’t cry or get super emotional but I just knew. We bought that dress right off the rack right there. I could not have picked a more perfect dress for my wedding day.
Mimi's Bridal was incredible. I purchased my dress from Demetrios in NJ while I lived there. I moved back to Michigan and was looking for somewhere to bring my dress for alterations. Mimi's was recommended to me by a few people so I decided to go there. They truly know what they're doing! My dress had SO much beading and a beautiful scallop detail along the bottom that I thought would for sure get chopped off. They worked MAGIC. My dress was the perfect length and looked like it was never even touched. They also took in the bust so it would lay flat against me since it was strapless. They were so sweet the entire time, showed my mom how to lace up the corset back, took videos of doing the bustle, etc. They were incredible. I've heard they are more expensive than other places but haven't gone elsewhere to know if it's true. Even if it is, they are 100% worth it. A little extra in alterations is worth having your beautiful dress remain that way!
One of my girlfriends recommended Mimi’s Bridal to me and I’m so glad she did!! They were so sweet and easy to work with! Plus EVERY dress I tried on was GORGEOUS!!! I wasn’t planning on actually finding “My Dress” that day but sure enough, I did!!
From the start with Mimi's I had an excellent experience. Diane helped me at my initial appointment. I was clear on what I was looking for and she helped me to stay on budget and with my style. I did not ever feel pressured at all. Once my gown was chosen and ordered communication with the boutique was great. I had to reschedule for my initial fitting and that was done without issue. The best part of the experience was with my alterations and my final fitting. I loved my dress even more when put it on that day. It fit my body perfectly. The staff who measured me did it perfectly. I am so so glad I chose Mimi's for my wedding gown. Very satisfied with my experience.
I highly recommend Mimi’s Bridal Boutique they are super professional and friendly. They make you feel very comfortable.
I was very happy with my visit. All of their dresses are not only beautiful and modern, but very different from one to the other. The associate helping me was very open and patient with my ideas. She knew how to narrow down my decisions so as not to make the process overwhelming, and she was honest with me without being pushy. And of course my dress is amazing. It's unique and never been seen before, which is what I wanted.
My wedding dress was the first one I tried on at Mimi’s Bridal. I could not have imagined a more perfect dress. I couldn’t believe that the first one I tried on was THE ONE so I continued to shop around. I quickly noticed that Mimi’s had the best variety and selections of dresses, not to mention how stinking cute the store is. I 100% recommend this. Rural salon (I already cane back with a friend who is getting married next year to help her shop for her wedding gown).
I went into Mimi's 3 months pregnant, looking for a dress that I could wear at 8 months pregnant! I wasn't sure how that would work out but I described what I liked & they explained what would work best with not knowing how big I was going to get. I tried on maybe 7 dresses and knew that my dress was the one. It was perfect. The look, the fit, everything about it - I couldn't have felt more beautiful on the best day of my life. Thank you Mimi's!!
Cannot say enough nice things about Mimi's! They made finding the perfect wedding dress an event that was SO fun, and within my price range! I felt absolutely beautiful in the dress I chose, thanks to their careful alterations and fittings. Love Mimi's!
I can't say enough good things about my experience with Mimi's Bridal. My whole experience with them was top notch and they made everything so easy from start to finish. Being an out of state bride I was only able to come into the shop once before the week of the wedding. The week of my wedding they made sure my dress fit perfectly and it didn't matter to them how long that took. When I put my wedding dress on the day of the my wedding it was perfect and I couldn't of been more happy with the final result. The staff was fabulous to work with and they made me feel so at ease that it would be perfect and they delivered! I would recommend Mimi's to any bride who is looking for their dream dress. Not only did I find my dream dress with them but they helped me with my bridesmaid dress and mother of the bride dress. All in all my experience with Mimi's was the best and I can't thank them enough!
I had such a wonderful experience a Mimi's with Yvette, she was friendly, patient, and very respectful of my budget which I really appreciated! I didn't feel rushed or pressured to make a quick decision. I would definitely recommend Mimi's!
I have nothing but great things to say about Mimi's Bridal. They were wonderful from the very start, when I first went in with my mom to look at wedding dresses. This was my first bridal appointment, and Salwa was very accommodating and listened to all my ideas and visions for a wedding dress. I ended up finding my dream dress and veil that very first day! I did all my alterations with Mimi's and they did a fantastic job. My dress was beautiful and everything I hoped for! They are currently doing the cleaning and preserving process for me as well. Every time I had a question, they were quick to answer. They really formed a relationship with both my mom and I, and we will miss seeing this lovely ladies at all my appointments. I definitely recommend Mimi's Bridal for all of your wedding dress and accessory needs - you won't be disappointed!
I got my Allura gown at Mimi's, and they handled all my alterations as well as my dress preservation. While I haven't yet gotten the dress back from the cleaning/preservation services and can't speak to that yet, everything else about my experience at Mimi's was wonderful. The salon is warm, welcoming, and comfortable. The dress selection is incredible. The staff are kind, warm, professional, and very good at consulting, fitting, and alterations. I can't recommend them highly enough!
I went in just to look and get an idea as I hadn't tried on dresses anywhere else...and I left with the ONE less than an hour into it. I was worried about the process because I am not a great shopper and very self conscious. Salwa was AMAZING and made me feel so at ease and comfortable. It was honestly so FUN. We tried on about 12 dresses. I never felt rushed or pressured. She was very honest about how the fit flattered me without being offensive. And most importantly she was very finely tuned into my facial reactions to each dress. When I tried on my dress, I didn't want to take it off and Salwa knew. Going back for my bridesmaids dresses, definitely! Thank you, Salwa!
Mimi's had a great selection in all price points. When we first walked in I was concerned they didn't have anything in my mid-range price point, but there was plenty of great options! I did not use Mimi's for the alterations of my dress due to their price point and proximity from me, but for picking out and buying my wedding dress, it was great!
If I could give a review higher than 5 stars, I would. Before going to Mimi's, my experience dress shopping was stressful and overwhelming. That's until I went to Mimi's Bridal, and I was so happy that I did. Not only are the dresses gorgeous, but the staff is incredible- especially Salwa. I was so indecisive and she put me at ease, and taught me that the only feelings that mattered were my own. Salwa worked with my budget, and took the time to get to know me and my preferences. She ended up picking two additional dresses for me to try on- one of which ended up being my dream dress! They took my measurements and once the dress came in, it looked AMAZING and it fit me perfectly! The entire staff there is so helpful, professional and informative, and I'm definitely recommending Mimi's to every bride I know!
Salwa was amazing and helped me listen to only my feelings on each dress. I honestly don't think I would have been able to choose my dress if it weren't for her. I am generally indecisive so the shopping experience was a bit stressful and overwhelming until I came into Mimi's. I am so thankful I chose to shop there. They were all absolutely wonderful.
My fiancé and I did not want a long engagement. We booked our destination wedding at a little more than 4 months out. I knew it was a tight squeeze to find a dress in time, and I checked two other bridal salons that made me feel like it would be an impossible task they didn't want to help me with. I did try on dresses at both those places but walked out discouraged to say the least. I remembered hearing Mimi's name pop up in conversation and reluctantly dialed their number expecting to hear the same bad news I had heard before. Salwa (my Bridal specialist) answered the phone and made me feel completely at ease after explaining my situation and the look I was going for. She went out of her way to see if they had the style I was looking for in my budget (around $2000) and started pulling dresses for me before I even arrived! I immediately went in for a dress showing and was blown away at the amount of dresses they had fitting my very specific description (mine was low back, boho beachy style that apparently is a lot more difficult to find than I thought). She spent a lot of time with me, gave me her honest opinion, and I was able to find "the one" that day. They even took the time to contact the designer to see if I would receive the dress in time without a rush fee. It was honestly such a pleasant experience I wish I could do it all over again. I highly recommend Mimi's and more specifically, Salwa, to be a part of journey of being a bride!
I did a full day of dress shopping with 3 boutiques. All 3 had great dress selections but Mimi's had the most options for what I was looking for. (My budget was $3,000) The consultant who worked with me was great! The best out of the 3 boutiques I went to. (Salwa, or Selma, can't exactly remember her name) She let me try on a lot of dresses, I didn't feel rushed. She knew exactly what to show me from what I told her I liked. The next day I came back because I was torn between 2 dresses & they welcomed me right in & let me try the dresses on again. I ultimately made the decision the next day & couldn't be happier.
Mimi's was absolutely amazing! I'm a medical student and was down in Ann Arbor on rotations and decided to go look on a whim. I had asked through email if they had a specific dress and while they didn't carry it, they had suggested I come down and try on a smiler dress and if I didn't like that then I could order the dress I wanted through them. Well I'll be darned if I ppt hey didn't know me better than I knew myself! I ended up buying the dress they had suggested that day, it was perfect! I was nervous about shopping alone as all my family is back on the east coast, but the women face timed my mom in so she could see everything and we could talk. It was absolutely incredible and i couldn't recommend them highly enough!
Everything was perfect!
