Nancys was an amazing bridal boutique and I had the best experience. I loved that they really looked through my inspiration pics and picked dresses that were exactly my vision, and...
let me look through and pick any that caught my eye as well. Their fitting rooms are spacious and gorgeous and fit our big group. They made me feel very special and it was evident that they really care about your experience and what you want. There was no comparison to the other bridal boutiques we went to - we knew Nancy’s and the dress I found there were the one. I also got my dress altered there and the final product was flawless. I could not recommend Nancy’s more!

I was so happy to find not only my wedding dress, but also my bridesmaids dresses at Nancy's. We were a postponed wedding from 2020, and they kept my dress safe and sound for 3 yea...
rs! They were also able to alter my bridesmaid's dress from a size 10 to a size 2! Only issue was a string on my dress was broken and despite asking them to sew it back together several times, they never did and one of my bridesmaids ended up sewing it for me.

Basically all I can say is wow. From the moment I walked in I felt like a bride and not a customer. Tiara treated myself and my family like her own and went above and beyond trying...
to find the right one. I stole many hours of her time and not once did she complain about my indecisiveness. I walked away my second time there with my dream dress and my heart filled. I had a poor experience at another Indy shop, and Tiara restored my love for all things bridal. She even knew what my dress was “missing” and brought the perfect detail that basically had me blurting out my YES. 1000/10 experience. LOVE being a Nancy’s Bride!

se and worse. They do not measure you or pin you when they do alterations, so it never get's fixed and is never accurate. Never once did they measure or pin my dress. I took my dress to a rescue alteration place that has to completely re-build the dress. My dress had a hole on the side, buttons falling off, straps were too loose, and needed to be let out. It did not help that the seamstress is the rudest individual I've encountered. We tried calling to express our concerns, but no one bothered calling us back. Go elsewhere--this place has absolutely made the week leading up to my wedding a nightmare.

I had a really disappointing with this company. In the beginning, I loved my dress and was so happy. I got my dressed altered at the boutique with their seamstress and I would high...
ly recommend NOT doing the same. I had only the straps altered, bra cups put in, and the button hooks fixed and nothing else changed! The morning of the wedding I put the dress on and within 3-5 minuets of wearing it (without moving...just my mom and MOH putting on the veil and buttoning me), the left strap broke. It popped off so easily, I was shocked. My mom, MOH, and Mother in law had to fix not only the left strap but also the right strap because it was such shambley work. The straps looked like they were hardly secured. The three of them had to use needle and thread and safety pins to secure my dress....and it took about 30 minutes. I was unable to take about 15% of the pictures I had wanted either due to time or to the fact I was scared to move in my dress. It was extremely disappointing that the words out of my mouth to my dad during his first look were "please don't hug me too tight because I'm scared the dress will break again". I was unable to hold my niece during the day because I didn't want the dress to break. During my actual ceremony, I found myself praying that every time we kneeled or moved, that my dress wouldn't break.
After getting back from the honeymoon, my husband called to ask for a refund and received a very small refund. My husband spoke with the owner and after a few minutes of conversing, he was hung up on.
It's very disappointing that a company that claims it wants to see all their brides smile and make your bridal fantasies come true, doesn't seem to care at all that their work ruined the wedding day. I truly became most upset when realising the company doesn't care about how their work impacts you after you pay them.

My bridesmaids and I had a wonderful experience picking out their dresses from Nancy’s. They helped us with ideas and had a range of sizes so each of my bridesmaids could find some...
thing they loved. They all ended up choosing the first dresses they tried on! There was a little bit of a mixup ordering my matron of honor’s dress - they didn’t order it when she put down her deposit but waited until each bridesmaid had made a deposit, which was a couple months later. We freaked out a little because my matron of honor lives out of town and it was going to be complicated to get it to her. As soon as we figured out the issue Nancy’s was on it and made sure she had her dress with plenty of time to get it altered. They all looked so beautiful - thanks Nancy’s!

Not only does Nancy’s sell beautiful dresses with a wide selection at a reasonable price, they also have an amazing staff. When I came in for my dress I didn’t know exactly what I...
wanted, but instead gave a couple of details I liked. Each dress I tried on I would give feedback about what I liked and disliked about the dress. Then, they would go searching for a different dress that met my wants. On the sixth dress, they nailed it and I knew it was my dress. In addition to finding my perfect dress, they learned my name and would greet me each time I came for a fitting (all done in house) and were truly so sweet and genuine. I received so many compliments on my wedding day about my dress and would recommend Nancy’s to anyone in search of a beautiful wedding dress!

They actually have a lovely selection of dresses, and though I found my chosen dress on the 4th one here, I wish in retrospect I would have tried on more because they have such an array! Very nice people, good prices for lovely pieces, and they held my dress for almost a year free of charge in their temp. controlled area. Would totally recommend this place if you're in the Indy area!!

Don't go here! They are disorganized and dismissive.
I scheduled an appointment to get an alterations quote for a wedding dress I had already purchased at another store. When I s...
howed up, the sales associate at the front desk (who was randomly holding a very young baby) was very disorganized and dismissive. She made me wait about 10 minutes past my appointment time to get a room even though the shop was fairly empty. Once she said a room was available, she briskly took me back there and told me to wait for her there. After almost 20 minutes of sitting in the room by myself, I realized they had completely forgotten about me and my sales associate was no where to be found. I went out of the dressing room and had to track someone down by myself to even look at my dress to give me a quote. The new sales associate I found was now watching the random baby, who at this point had started crying, and looked at me in my dress for less than a minute before giving me an exorbitant quote for my simple alterations.
I understand I wasn't there to spend thousands on a dress, but I was still a potential paying customer. There is never an excuse to make someone feel unwanted and unimportant. I left incredibly frustrated.
I will never go back to Nancy's and I will tell everyone I know to do the same.

My initial appointment I was attended by an older lady dressed in all black. I believe her name was Nancy but I could be wrong. Since they weren't that busy I felt like we got a li...
ttle more attention but the bridal consultation was very dry and not helpful. I did find a dress I loved but wanted to wait until my family came in town to see before I purchased. I left with a card that contained my dress designer and style. I called two months early to schedule a dress reveal appointment to show everyone the dress I picked out. Mind you I had family coming from over an hour a way to see me in the dress I was going to get married in. We arrive 30 min early to have them place the dress in the room without my family seeing it. To my surprise the sold the dress I came to try on but never bothered calling me to tell me I wouldn't have a dress to try on when I got there. The bridal consultant working with us explained that they never read the notes before a bride comes in that they just go with it. That is nice considering we are spending thousands of dollars and this is supposed to be a special time for us. She then said they didn't have my appointment down as a reveal appointment to a try on. Even so you don't read the notes before we come in so you still wouldn't know until I arrived. After somewhat of an emotional moment I tried on a few dresses that were very similar. Toward the end, we asked our consultant if there was anything they can do to compensate for our experience. She left to get the owner Nancy, which never bothered to come in and talk with us. Instead offered us 5% discount. The bridal consultant said she requested 10% instead. Mind you the owner never came in to offer an apology or make us feel the least bit better about the whole ordeal. We were there for an additional 45 min after having the conversation about discounting but still never approached us to say anything. I am sure the reason she didn't bother to say sorry was because what is one upset bride going to do for her business? More and more ladies will continue to go in and purchase dresses despite the negative reviews. I know everyones experience is different and I certainly hope everyone else who choses to go in that dreadful place has a better experience. I now have to drive to Cincinnati to purchase my dress because that is the next closest place to purchase the designer I chose.

After visiting a few other local bridal shops, I unfortunately found my perfect dress at Nancy's. From the get go, Nancy seemed uninterested in helping me for my scheduled appointm...
ent. She would disappear for chunks of time after putting me in a dress. After I ordered my dress and came for my first fitting, the dress was huge and had to be taken in in the bust, waist, and hips. When I changed my mind the week after my fitting and called to ask them to hold off on a change to the back of the dress, I was told it was no problem. When I arrived for the next fitting, however, the alteration had been done (and poorly) and with no apology or offer to reverse the change or not charge for the work that I was told wouldn't be done. The botched lace was fixed in the end, but my concerns were dismissed and I was told "don't worry about it, it will be beautiful" although they had already screwed it up once. Save yourself the stress and find your dress at one of the other local shops that values your business and treats you respectfully.

I recommend that you don't waste your time here, and this is why:
My family and my fiancés family came in town for my first wedding dress shopping trip. I chose Nancy s and I dee...
ply regret it. My consultant was extremely rude. She had another bride, so her attention was divided. I am an understanding and patient person so I didn't mind the delay, but I do not appreciate being made to feel like an imposition. Every time she came to the room she would say something like "well we squeezed you in so the other bride takes priority."
The only dress my mother picked out that she wanted to see me in, the consultant wouldn't allow me to try it on. She was blatantly rude to my mother.
When I picked one out from the rack the consultant said to me "that one isn't in your budget." I hadn't told her my budget, so she made an assumption about my financial situation. As it turns out; that dress was well within what I was planning to spend. I will not be buying my dress at Nancy's, and I will not be recommending them to anyone.

t your search at Nancy’s Bridal!
From the moment we walked in, the staff at Nancy’s was warm, helpful, and patient. I had the pleasure of working with Barb, who took her time helping me in and out of dresses, explaining different options with my bridal look, and making sure I was happy with every facet of my wedding dress.
During the dress fitting appointments, Nancy was amazing. She has years of experience, and a great eye for details when it comes to the fit of your dress. She was happy to continue making adjustments until every detail was perfect.
I would highly recommend Nancy’s Bridal to all brides looking for a perfect wedding dress shopping experience.

I'm not going to rant on about details because at this point, my wedding has passed and there would be no point to write about the amount of phone calls, stress and disappointment ...
this shop caused. But, I would want to know as a new bride and a first time customer what a horrible experience I had here so I'll just give you a quick run down of facts..
I ordered the Cora Watters dress.
The shop ordered the wrong colored mesh several times and the first time the owner tried to tell me the sample dress (color I wanted) looked "almost the same" as the dress I had.
Owner tried to "fix it" by replacing all of the mesh but in the end told me I was costing her money and blamed me for 'ordering the wrong color" in the first place.
Because of all of this I got my dress from the shop less than 3 weeks from the wedding without having any fittings yet.
All of my fittings took place in the last 3 weeks before the wedding and I ended up just searching for a seamstress myself because I had lost all trust.
This was the the most stressful part of my wedding process. I only write this post because I hope that brides don't go through the same hassle. I'm sure there have been a lot of good experiences here but if you have any dress issues arise along the way, don't expect the owner to be of much help.

Nancys Bridal was the 2nd Bridal shop we visited and where my daughter found her dress. We were welcomed when we arrived and were told to feel free to look, and when we found a go...
wn or gowns we liked they would take them to a dressing room for us. It was very relaxed and were able to browse without any sales pressure or feeling rushed.
The shop is very beautiful and lighting is good. Staff was helpful but not pushy at all.
We ordered the dress that the bride chose. Since the bride was living out of state at the time, they were helpful in arranging the appointments to her schedule. When the dress arrived, she flew in for a fitting and it needed alterations on the sides so the front would lay flat and not puffy over the stomach area. They measured her and we also told them that the church required some kind of strap for all strapless dresses. They showed us a nice sheer strap about an inch or two wide, which attaches to a clear snap that they would attach inside the dress. We agreed but were shocked to find out that JUST the straps would be 80.00 to put on. I was in disbelief. Each snap would take four stitches to put in the dress. I could have put them in myself but that was not an option. After the alterations were done, she flew in again for a fitting. The dress still had excess material that bunched up in the stomach area. So, once again it needed more alterations. The seamstress they used was very impatient and short, when we told her it wasn’t done right, she insisted she has been doing this for 45 years and knew what she was doing. Overall we had 3 different alterations done on the dress to get it right.
Now here is the other shocking part……..when trying on the dress the 2nd time, we discovered that inside the dress were two straps that were made to be used with the dress. This should have been told to us when we mentioned needing straps. I feel we definitely did NOT need to spend the extra 80.00 for the straps they sold us, when there were already straps with the dress. If you buy your dress at Nancys you might want to have alterations done elsewhere. I would rate them a 3.5 out of 5

As a bride who LOVES the experience of finding the perfect details for my wedding, I wanted the process of finding my dress to be more than something to cross off of my list. I wan...
ted it to be special and something meaningful. Nancy's Bridal did an amazing job of helping me find my perfect dress! First of all, the atmosphere makes any bride feel like a princess. The layout of the store is gorgeous and relaxing. I loved that I actually got to pick out my own dress! No one picked it for me. I was able to walk through the store and pull out the dresses that I wanted to try on. After picking 5-ish dresses, my attendant grabbed the dresses off of the rack and brought them to my dressing room. I then tried on the dresses. After trying on the dresses, I walked out to my girls as then gasped at my dress. I was placed in front of a beautiful mirror and given wonderful options for veils, belts, jewelry, and accessories. The prices were actually very reasonable and I ended up buying my perfect dress for just under $1000. After adding alterations and a few accessories, the total came to about $1500, but that was in my budget and I could not have been more pleased with the dress I received. I loved the experience, and I loved the dress!! In addition, Nancy's did my alterations for the dress. They adjusted the neckline of my dress to a sweetheart from a straight neck, added a belt, sewed buttons down the back, hemmed the dress, brought in the sides, and added a bustle! I loved my dress, and it fit like a glove! My dress was strapless, but stayed up perfectly (even while I danced with my hands in the air) because Nancy did such a wonderful job of altering my dress! I cannot thank them enough and I would recommend their services to anyone!
