Everyone made me and my family feel so very welcome and comfortable!!! I loved working with Katie to find my absolute dream dress!!!
I bought my wedding Dress at Norman's Bridal, and loved the experience. The vibe felt classic to down-town, the employees were always kind, and the dress selection was great. I worked with Josie, who helped me narrow down my choices and gave great advice as it pertains to picking out a dress. The experience was comfortable, affordable, and overall excellent!
From the minute I walked in they made me feel special and welcomed. The woman (Mrs Brenda) who helped me try on dresses was very knowledgeable about dresses and alterations. It was such a great experience!
Any questions?
The lady helping me picked out a dress that she thought I might like after I already picked a few to try on, and it happened to be the one. They were super helpful and joyful through the whole process!
I love Norman’s. I found my dress they pressed it and anytime I needed alterations it was an easy try out and check out for the big day!
I didn't get my wedding dress from Norman's, but I did get my bridesmaids dresses here. Way better customer service than what I had experienced at David's Bridal. Plus, Norman's had way more style variety. They even gave me a piece of the fabric so that I can match my colors!
I walked in not having any idea what I wanted and the staff and Norman’s helped me find the perfect dress! They figured out what I did and didn’t like so easily and made the experience so fun. Definitely recommend!
Kyla let me pick out some dresses I liked and then once she got a feel for my style she asked me to try on a dress and I did, and that’s the one I chose! I love it!
Katie Jankovitz help me find the perfect dress and was absolutely amazing! She was extremely kind and energetic .She helped me find something in my price range that I loved. I would definitely recommend Norman's Bridal to anybody. And I would also recommend Katie as a bridal stylist
Normans helped me find my PERFECT dress. They (Katie my consultant) listened to what I wanted and within 6 dresses I had found my dress!
I also purchased the package where they kept my dress and my bridesmaids dresses at the shop and then pressed them the day before my wedding. I highly recommend that package and Norman’s!
I’ve bought many dresses from Norman’s throughout my pageant career and for prom in high school. I knew I wanted to buy my wedding gown here one day especially when I got to be on the other side as an employee here 7 years ago and I’m so glad I came back for it. Patty was my stylist and she did a wonderful job listening to what I wanted and making sure the group with me didn’t outshine that. It was such a fun moment getting to be surrounded by friends, family, and even my former coworkers who were just as happy for me. Norman’s is like a family and you won’t be disappointed finding your gown here!
I had a great experience picking out my wedding dress at Norman’s! My stylist, Patty, was so easy to work with and she was very professional and knowledgeable. I picked the first dress I tried on, and I couldn’t be more excited to wear it on my wedding day!
I had the best experience wedding dress shopping today! Patty Smulski was so great to work with! She knew just the dresses to pick out! I found the perfect dress! Thank you Norman’s Bridal!
Hands down an amazing experience! My stylist, Patty, was so professional. She knew EXACTLY what dresses fit my style and body-type. I picked the first dress I tried on. A recommendation from Patty herself! You can’t go wrong with this beautiful, classy studio. It was a comfortable and relaxing visit.
My experience of finding my wedding dress at Norman's Bridal was so fun and exciting. Kyla, my stylist, was so helpful and seemed to know exactly what I was looking for. I would recommend Norman's Bridal to any and every bride!
This Vendor was absolutely amazing! I was so nervous about finding the perfect dress for my big day. They had the most beautiful selection and Katie was wonderful and did an awesome job helping me put together and select the dress that was perfect for me! I would use Normans Bridal over and over again!
The consultant at Normans was amazing and so helpful finding THE dress! The selection of gowns was great and they had a wide range of dress sizes available. Definitely a 10/10 experience and I’m so grateful!
I went bridal shopping on January 10th. I wanted it to be a one a done shopping ordeal. I went in with the dress I thought that I wanted in mind. However Kyla who was amazing pulled a different dress as well. I tried on a total of three dresses but knew the second one I tried on that Kyla pulled was the one! She made the process so easy and so nice and honest! I highly recommend Norman's and if I could give them an A++ I would! Thank you Kyla for the amazing experience!
10/10 definitely would recommend Norman's Bridal to any bride looking for their dress or bridesmaids dresses. Katie, my stylist, was super kind and helpful. She helped me find my perfect dress in under an hour and made the whole experience fun and enjoyable.
I want to start this review by saying, Please visit Normans for your dress!! I went on whim since my mother bought her own wedding dress from Normans in 2014. Within minutes Patty was already walking me through the dresses and we had an armful. And of all the dresses I fell in love with the very first one Patty had chosen. She was attentive, funny, and very helpful. I can't sing enough praises for this shop and Patty!
I have been to 8 shops, tried on well over 50 dresses and I can hands down say the BEST experience I had was at Norman's. Emily was ah-ma-zing! I also felt kinda pushed around and not really listened to at other shops but I had a wonderful experience here. I went back to try on my dress one more time before purchasing and even though Emily was not available she popped in just to tell me how beautiful the dress was on me and asked if I still loved it. ladies don't walk run to normans and check out their selection! you'll have a great experience with wonderful staff!
We drove from St. Louis for the sale!! Katie was AMAZING and made it so easy!! I pretty much gave her free reign and she blew me away!! So excited to wear my dress! ☺️
Norman's was the first and only Bridal shop I ended up going to because I found the perfect dress in that one stop! The stylist I worked with listened to and considered every single thing I was looking for in a dress and only showed me dresses within my budget which was very important to me. She had me try on a variety of styles and ultimately delivered the absolute perfect option. We had her full attention during our appointment, check out was fast after picking out the dress, and everyone we interacted with was super friendly. Highly recommend Norman's!
Normans Bridal was amazing! I walked and and every moment I was in there I felt like a Princess. They listened to what dress I had dreamed about and brought out the perfect one! It was such an easy process and I got the dress of my dreams!
Patty was my stylist and she was very helpful. She only pulled dresses in my price range and ones that were in my size. She quickly was able to find dresses I really liked even though I came in not totally sure what I wanted exactly. Patty helped me find the perfect dress! She put me in multiple different veils and helped me find one that went along and put it aside for me. The dress itself makes me feel very glamorous and beautiful and it fit like a glove and I’ll need minimal alterations. Overall, it was an amazing experience and I would recommend Normans and seeing Patty as a stylist!
Katie Jankovitz was my “bridal gown angel”.
Her patience and assistance through the whole process was remarkable! I first came alone, and needless to say, she had to work even harder. I was exhausted “for” her😀
A huge thank you to Katie!!!
I had an amazing experience at Normans Bridal!! I went dress shopping at a ton of places in Dallas, TX (where I’m from) and couldn’t find anything until I scheduled an appointment at Norman’s on a whim while I was visiting my fiancé - Patty was so sweet and totally got my style - the dress I ended up buying was one she had mentioned from the beginning that she thought I’d love, and she was so right! She was great at backing me up (my mom def preferred a bigger skirt) and helping me decide on the dress without being pushy or aggressive. They have a huge dress selection and everyone was so sweet - totally recommend!!
So many decisions to make...but Patricia helped my granddaughter find the perfect wedding dress and check a BIG item off the wedding planning list. Patricia listened to what she wanted, added her expertise, and together they found THE DRESS. Thank you, thank you, thank you.
I had such an incredible experience. My stylist, Patty Smulski, knew my exact style I needed without even having to tell her. It was the first bridal shop I had been to and my dream dress was the third one I tried on! I never thought I would be so thrilled about finding a dress especially since I am very very picky. My whole group and I were teary eyed. Couldn't be more thankful for how wonderful and helpful the service was.
Loved the environment and friendly staff! Patty picked out the perfect dress for me on the very first try! She was super helpful and polite, definitely listened to everything I wanted in a dress and made my experience everything I it should be !! 10/10 would recommend for all of your wedding needs
Very helpful and professional and made the experience so relaxing and fun.
Had the best experience!! Found the perfect dress!! I'm so excited to wear it!! 🥰🥰 Katie was awesome!! Thank you for making me feel beautiful!! I am a very self conscious person and she was so sweet and made me feel at ease!! Essence of Australia has the most beautiful dresses! Sparkle for days!!
I was really glad I chose this store all the dresses were gorgeous and reasonably priced. Katie was so helpful and picked the perfect dresses. I ended up finding a ceremony and reception gown!
I arrived hoping for the best since I had went to two other stores and didn’t find anything that felt like me. I told Katie things I didn’t like and what I did. She came back with a handful of dresses and when I tried on the first one I seriously thought I was going to leave with it because it was gorgeous! But I tried on a few more just in case. I liked another dress but really wished I could combine the elements of the first one with some that I liked from the one I had just tried on. Katie made it happen and we found the absolute perfect dress for my wedding day. I felt like a princess, like I was a little girl playing dress up again!! She is truly awesome as well as the rest of the staff.
Being plus size, I expected it to take forever for me to find a dress I love and feel confident in. I went to Norman’s first, after hearing good things, but only expecting to look and not to find anything. That all changed thanks to Katie Jankovitz. She was sweet and kind. She listened to my very vague descriptions of what I was thinking and my price range and found me the literal dress of my dreams. I fully recommend Norman’s Bridal and you should ask for Katie, who is just the most patient human.
My experience with Norman's was fantastic! I scheduled an appointment mostly on a whim, as there was a sale happening and I had not yet found a dress after several appointments at other shops. But Norman's helped me find "the one." I enjoyed the entire experience - from the individual dressing rooms and the platforms to the consultants I worked with. The shop owner actually picked out what ended up being my perfect dress! One I never would have picked for myself, but it was perfect. Highly recommend Norman's to all future brides!
Normans was the third bridal boutique I visited. The staff was professional, patient, and extremely helpful. I was hesitate at first to even visit Normans as I thought the prices would be too high. However, they did have a few dresses in my price range. And I found the perfect one!
I went in to look for a dress super nervous and with no clear vision of what I wanted. All the staff were extremely kind and attentive. The entire atmosphere was amazing and definitely made for a beautiful, cherished memory. Liz helped me and let me tell you, I couldn’t be more thrilled with her! She’s seriously amazing!!! She was able to sort through the little things I liked or didn’t like to find me the perfect dress plus earrings PLUS we got to look for dresses for my bridal party. Finding THE dress was so much easier than I ever expected thanks for Liz and the staff of Norman’s! I’m so grateful I chose them!
Response from the Vendor on 01/22/2021
You are too sweet Brooke!!! I seriously enjoyed my time working with you and I am thrilled we found the perfect dress. Thanks so much!
I visited two other Bridal Boutiques before finding my dress at Normans. Patty was quick to pull exactly what style I was wanting, but very tentative to my body language the entire time. She quickly could tell there was something about the dresses I was pulling that I, myself, wasn't liking. She helped me step outside of my comfort zone and ultimately found the dress of my dreams. Thank you to Patty, and to the owner who were so helpful and patient in finding my dress.
Everyone at Norman's was so professional and kind. I was in and out with a wedding dress in less than 2 hours! My stylist Patty was so helpful and knew what style I was looking for immediately. Thank you!!
Normans bridal did an amazing job with helping me find my dress. Katie really listened to everything I liked and didn't like about each dress I tried on. She was able to find me the perfect dress that was a combination of everything I liked.
I went to several different bridal shops and Norman’s was by far the most professional. Everyone not only dressed nice but looked nice. I was raked in a large fitting room which was a nice change from the cramped fitting rooms I’ve been pushed into before. There was a large mirror and plenty of space. My stylist Katie Barr was amazing. She was so kind and professional and really took into consideration my wants. We have her a budget and she stayed under it! I know a lot of places will either try to meet your budget or go a little over but all of the dress that were brought out to me were under budget and varied in price which was amazing! She was also great at clipping back dresses and helping getting them to fit. A lot of other shops either made my mom do it or weren’t good at actually pinning the dress. She was amazing at clipping it on all of the right places. You could also take as many pictures as you wanted in the dress which some shops don’t allow!
My bridal appointment at Normans went so well! Liz was amazing! Not only did she enthusiastically greet me and my guests, but she knew the style and budget I was interested in from my pre-appointment information. She pulled dresses within my budget and listened to opinions on the dresses to pinpoint the style that I really wanted. I ended up getting my wedding dress that day, and it was an awesome experience. Every staff member was so sweet and welcoming, we felt well supported. Thank you all!
Katie was awesome. She made me feel comfortable and listened to all of my requests. I started out not knowing exactly what I wanted and we worked together and I found the perfect dress at Normans. Thank you so much!
I went to their Annual Dash for the Dress sale and WOW the service I received was incredible. I found my dream dress within 30 minutes and was checked out and on my way so quickly with the help of all of the staff there! I loved loved loved my experience here!!
Kyla helped me find the dress of my dreams and it was so easy! She worked her magic and found me the one that made my cry. I would highly recommend going to Norman’s for your dress and work with Miss Kyla!!
My experience finding my dream dress was PERFECT. Tara Routh has been there for a long time and she definitely knows what she’s doing! I’m so thankful for her getting styles I thought I would like for me to try on and getting me to go out of my comfort zone! The dress I bought was nothing like I thought was my “style” but it’s beautiful and I can’t express enough how perfect my day at Norman’s was!
I was lucky enough to have Kaitlyn Brown as my Bridal Stylist and I couldn’t have asked for a better one! She listened to my likes and dislikes and helped me find my perfect dress, that just happened to be the first one I tried on. I couldn’t be more pleased with my consultation and loved my experience!
Patty @ Norman’s Bridal was THE BEST consultant ever!!!! She knew exactly what I wanted before I had any clue! She was so kind, so helpful, and reassured me every step of the way! She helped me find my dream dress and I only tried on 6!!!!! Patty is amazing! Everyone at Norman’s was amazing! I highly recommend Norman’s for your wedding and bridesmaid dresses!
After going to several different bridal stores Norman’s fit me in last minute. After describing my desired look and budget Katie pulled several options. She was extremely patient and helpful. After hearing me describe what each dress was missing she went a pulled an option that had everything. She made sure to tell me it’s exact price and that they could get it in by my wedding before showing it to me. I fell in love with it. Katie was so kind and helpful and I wouldn’t have found my dream dress without her!
I went to Norman’s for my wedding dress and bought the first dress that I tried on. It was an absolute wonderful experience and Patty was so helpful!
Tara was an awesome consultant who asked me questions about what I wanted in a dress and what I liked and disliked about each dress! She also asked me questions about my wedding and fiance! She is such a sweet person!
Patty helped me out & she was absolutely amazing! I had an idea of what I wanted but she made sure I got the perfect thing, even if it meant trying on a few dresses multiple times. I felt as if I had known her for years, although I’d just met her! The whole experience was amazing & the employees were so friendly.
I absolutely loved my time trying on dresses at Norman’s, it was everything I thought it would be but way better. Patty was amazing and really helped me narrow down the choices I had until I found the ONE. I will recommend Norman’s to all of my friends for any future wedding needs! Thank you guys so much for helping me.
Normans Bridal came highly recommended to me from several places, so I planned on them being my first and last stop for my wedding dress. From the second we walked in the door, all of the staff were highly professional and welcoming! By the end of the day, everyone was cheering me on. My stylist, Tara, was the best consultant I could have asked for!! I had very particular styles I liked and didn’t like, she was very receptive and quick to catch on. When I started to feel overwhelmed with choices, she made the right recommendations and guided me. She was kind to my family and very receptions to the input from my MOH who was communicating my needs. There were plenty of styles available, many that could fit a more restricted budget. My overall experience was phenomenal!! I have already recommended to the other brides I know. Tara made me feel so at home and answered all of my questions. Truly an incredible experience!
Being honest I didn't have very high expectations when I walked into Norman's. I had already gone to David's bridal twice and both times left frustrated overwhelmed and empty handed as well as two other shops and that's exactly how I expected my appointment at Norman's to go. To my surprise I was not overwhelmed or bombarded or frustrated. My consultant Katie Jankovitz was amazing she helped make dress shopping fun and exciting rather than stressful. I would very much recommend her. She helped me find my dress and made things super easy and comfortable very laid back and easy to work with.
My first experience at Norman's to look for my wedding dress and it was the best! Katie was so helpful and attentive to what I was looking for, so it didn't take long to find the perfect one! My bridesmaids and mom didn't have to lift a finger. 10/10 would recommend Norman's!
I actually visited Norman’s during a sale event where they were attempting to clear out overstock. I didn’t have the highest expectations going in as I thought the dresses may have been picked over and the right size, let alone style I wanted would be hard to find. Let me tell you I was wrong, this place blew me away. I tried on probably at least 20 dresses none far off from my size and all were gorgeous they had such an amazing selection so of course I had to say “yes” to one! Katie, my stylist was awesome, she knew exactly what I was going for and was so quick and efficient with everything, plus she was so easy to talk to and fun. Everyone I came in contact with there was so sweet. The setup of the store was also awesome, my mom and I had our own little area with great mirrors and lighting. This was the third time I had tried dresses on and it was by FAR the best experience I have had. If you’re looking for a personalized amazing experience definitely check out Norman’s!
The atmosphere of Norman’s was totally laid back and had a comfortable setting! Patty was AWESOME and helped me find my dream dress after only trying on four dresses! She made the process super easy and fun! There was absolutely no rush and she cared about my opinions! I HIGHLY recommend Norman’s to everyone who is looking for their dress!
I purchased my wedding dress here! The staff was quick to get me checked in and placed with my stylist Patty! Patty did a great job! She had a great personality and she was very helpful in finding the perfect dress for my big day! 5 stars for Norman’s all the way!
I scheduled an appointment not expecting much, since I am a plus size bride. This was my first time going to try on dresses. Katie was my stylist. She was amazing! She was helpful in helping me pick out dresses and also in helping me find my style. The appointment went great, and after only trying on three dresses Katie pulled the one. Norman's is wonderful and will help you find your dress!
Love this place! Nicest and most patient consultants! So professional and gets the job done quickly
My consultant Katie was amazing! She did an excellent job picking out dresses, even with my vague descriptions. This was my first stop so I didn’t expect to find my dress so quickly, but after trying on a few different options, she brought me the most amazing dress I have ever seen. Obviously she nailed it and I was able to get the dress of my dreams on my very first shopping trip!!
From one mama of the bride to another, Norman’s Bridal has been an easy button in all things wedding. Personally, Patty, our favorite, down to earth, real deal stylist joined us in the journey of making sure our daughter found her dress, the dress that captured her vision as a bride. I appreciate Patty’s hard work and non pressuring honesty. You are a gem- thank you, Patty Smulski!
I went into my appointment thinking I was just going to try dresses on and I ending up finding THE ONE! Thanks to Patty! She was absolutely amazing and made my experience so much better. She was so helpful and so sweet! Thank you so much!
I wasn't expecting to find my dress on the first visit to a dress shop, but my consultant Tara Routh was fabulous and picked out dresses that fit me so well. I thought I was going to be picky, but she helped me find a style that flatered my figure and would be able to be appopriately altered. She made my guest feel involved and welcomed too, we had so much fun! I loved my experience and will recommend Norman's Bridal to anyone!
I had the best experience at Norman’s! Everyone was so friendly and helpful. Patty was my consultant and she was AMAZING. She pulled beautiful dresses for me that were well within my budget! I ended up buying the third dress I tried on! I cannot imagine having a better experience!
Katie was our consultant and she was so helpful! I was very pleased with her patience and how much she would pin up each dress so I could get a real feel for the dress even when it was too big.
From this second I walked in, I knew Norman’s was the right place to find the dress I had been dreaming about. The dress I found was GORGEOUS, but I am leaving a review because of the EXCEPTIONAL customer service Brenda and Tara provided. Tara helped me try on dress after dress, helping me find ones that were not only what I envisioned but also ones that would please my family with me. She was patient, helpful and encouraging. She didn’t give up until we found THE dress. Brenda had helped my mom in finding her dress and remembered her from 25 years ago. She wanted my momma to approve, so she made sure to help Tara and I find the perfect dress that we all fell in love with. I never leave reviews, but I could go on and on about these two ladies because they deserve it! They know their stuff and they will make sure you leave a happy bride ❤️ So to Tara and Brenda, THANK YOU SO MUCH!
Norman’s was the perfect place to find my dress! I only needed to try on 5 dresses to find the perfect one!
Norman's was one of the first places that popped into my head when I thought of going wedding dress shopping! I had a million different visions of my wedding dress in my head and I am very thankful that Patty Smulski narrowed it down to my perfect dress! She was an amazing consultant for me and new exactly how to handle a bride who did not have a clear vision on what I wanted! I cannot say enough about my experience at Norman's. I cannot wait to go back and get my dress!
Norman’s filled every desire I had when it came to my wedding gown! They respected my budget, style, as well as helped my mother and wedding party see my vision for the dress. 10/10 recommend! Beautiful place with stunning affordable gowns and A friendly staff!
My experience with Norman’s was a fantastic experience! Katie Jankovitz was my consultant and she was such a big help! I am a notoriously indesisive person and had a hard time deciding. I stayed way too far past my appointment time (So Sorry Katie..) but she was so patient, encouraging, and did not rush me at all which was so helpful. I finally found the dress and it is gorgeous! Norman’s is a wonderful, accommodating environment that will treat you like the princess you are for the day! Go and check them out! It is so worth it!
If your looking for an amazing experience I highly recommend visiting Normans Bridal! We were actually on vacation and we were just trying to get dress idea's since we wouldn't all be together again to find a actual dress. My first experience at another boutique was rather defeating to say the least. I knew exactly what i wanted in my head and because the first boutique had nothing like that the consultant tried to convince me out of my idea all together. Katie B at Norman's was absolutely amazing! I instantly felt comfortable with her and she asked me a few questions about my vision and knew exactly what dress i had in my head that no one else could envision! She nailed it on the first dress she picked out! I tried on a few more gorgeous gowns but the first one she picked was the dress. I never thought i would ever be the kind of bride to cry or have "the moment" but Katie B made everything so perfect that i cried when i stepped back into the first dress to show my family with a veil. If you want a bridal store and consultant that knows their dresses, styles and treats you like family than Norman's Bridal is it! Thank you for helping me find the perfect dress!!!
I found my wedding dress here yesterday. A couple of my friends and family came to help and Patty was absolutely wonderful, offering suggestions and narrowing down dresses with her questions. She was able to suggest modifications too that I never would have thought of!
I had the honor of getting my wedding dress from Norman’s Bridal. This adorable shoppe was recommended to me by my future sister-in-law. After looking at their website, their dress selection, & excellent reviews I knew I had to go there so I flew all the way from San Francisco, California in the hopes of finding my wedding dress. I was instantly impressed by the class and elegance of the atmosphere and of the personalized and kind service I received from my bridal consultant, Patricia. My dress shopping experience was everything and more I hoped it would be and ultimately I found the perfect dress for me! Thank you to the Norman’s Bridal staff for your commitment to excellence and ensuring your brides are happy. I would absolutely recommend Norman’s to any future bride and consider it a must see Bridal Shoppe!
I absolutely love this place! I got my prom and wedding dress here! Katie Jankovitz is the best stylist!
I had the best wedding dress shopping experience here and I highly recommend this place for their overall incredible customer service and amazing choice of dresses for all types of budgets. I had the pleasure of working with Patty and I am so glad that she helped me find my dream dress. She never pressured me to make a choice and she encouraged me when I finally found the one! Five star experience here for sure, Thanks Normans Bridal!
I purchased my wedding dress and bridesmaids dresses through Norman’s Bridal. Everyone was super helpful and the dresses came in promptly!
They are fabulous at Normans! I had Katie as my bridal consultant (please excuse if I didn’t spell her name right), and she was so amazing! I had my initial appointment with her and I think I made her pull about 20 dresses to try on, and not once did I seem like I was an inconvenience to her or anything. She was always right there with me. I showed up one day, unscheduled, she stopped what she was doing, helped me with my questions, let me try on some more dresses, and was never rude or inpatient with me. Then, the day came when I brought my “bride tribe” and there were about 10 of us, and she handled it like a pro! She made everything so easy and fun! I couldn’t have done it without her!! The store was always very clean and organized and all the staff were always very kind! Thank you, Katie, and everyone at Norman’s!
I was nervous about shopping for dresses. I had heard sad stories from friends of situations they had been put in at other bridal shops. Most of those stories being about unfriendly consultants. But I had heard nothing but good about Normans! So I made an appointment and got Kaitlyn as my consultant. She was AMAZING. She was so precious and very experienced. There wasn't one dress she picked out that I didn't like. They were all in my budget and style. She is bomb at pinning the dress up to fit perfectly and very patient. I am so thankful for her. Thank you for helping me find my dream dress girl!
Response from the Vendor on 02/03/2019
I really couldn't love a review anymore!!! What you described is EXACTLY how we want our brides to feel. Congratulations and thank you.
Norman's Bridal made my shopping experience one to remember! The staff was friendly and made the day quick, easy, and far less intimidating than I was fearful of. Most importantly, I got the dress of my dreams!
Response from the Vendor on 01/30/2019
Congratulations Corbin! Thank you for letting us be a part of your big day. We are thrilled you enjoyed your experience with us.
My dream dress was the third dress I tried on at the first place I visited- Normans Bridal. The lady helping asked a few questions on what my dream dress would look like and she pulled a few and she was exactly spot on. They make it a very fun and memorable experience! I would recommend anyone to visit Normans! They are the best!
Response from the Vendor on 01/30/2019
Jenna! Thank you so much for the kind words. We love our brides and we are so happy you found the perfect dress!
This place is fantastic! I got engaged in December and expected to have to try on a ton of different dresses to find what I wanted, but my stylist (Katie J.) was amazing! I showed her a few pictures of what I wanted and she brought me exactly the right dress. 10/10 would shop again.
Response from the Vendor on 01/30/2019
Thank you Courtney! We LOVE it when we hear from our brides. We are so happy you had an amazing experience with Katie.
Wonderful staff and gowns! I made a trip to Springfield in search of my wedding dress and stopped in every bridal shop it town. Normans was by far the best experience! They welcomed me sweetly (even without an appointment--whoops!), had more beautiful opens than anywhere else that I searched, and our wonderful help--Nicole--did a great job helping me choose the perfect dress. I'm so grateful!
As soon as I walked into Norman's, I was blown away. The selection and atmosphere was incredible, and I was helped right away. After going to several other stores (and quite frankly being underwhelmed), Norman's was a breath of fresh air. The staff was understanding, and I wasn't having dress after dress shoved in my face. Despite being busy, I had a fantastic consultant., who was so very attentive. Kaitlyn was EXCELLENT, and after simply describing to her what I was looking for, she immediately picked out a dress that was EXACTLY what I wanted. It ended up being the dress I went home with! I'd recommend Norman's to any bride. I'm still blown away!

Amazing! We are so happy you enjoyed your experience with us Grace.
Patty Smulski was the absolute best. she listened to what I wanted, stayed in a good price range and found my dream dress almost right away. I recommend them to everyone. Best experience I had.
I had the BEST experience at Norman's Bridal. My consultant helped me find THE dress within three options. I went in knowing exactly what I wanted and she helped me find the perfect dress in less than an 45 minutes. My dress was also $500 off and had just gone on clearance a few days prior to me trying it on and there was only one left. It was meant for me.
This was the best experience ever! I had gone to davids bridal and Gracie's and was extremely disappointed. Katie was my consultant and helped me find exactly what I wanted. I ended up buying the very first dress she put me in! I'm so happy with Norman's!
I found my dream wedding dress at Norman’s Bridal, thanks to Patty!! I explained to her what I wanted, or tried, anyway! She knew exactly what I was trying to explain. The dress fit me like a glove & doesn’t need any alterations other than length! It is more beautiful than I could have ever imagined. She made it so easy & stress-free.
Norman’s was so great! The service was excellent. Lexus listened to my opinions and suggested dresses for my body type and style. The prices were very reasonable and I actually left with a dress way below my budget. Can’t wait to get my dress in and wear it on my big day!!
Brenda and her team are seriously the most helpful, kind, considerate people to work with. When the manufacturers sent me the wrong fabric to line a portion of my dress for my sister’s wedding with no time to fix the mistake, Brenda literally ripped apart the $1000 sample gown in the store to give me the extra fabric from the lining so that my dress could be salvaged. I literally cried, I was so grateful! Norman’s is customer service at its best!
I had so much fun looking for my dress here! My consultant, Katie, was very laid back and laughed at my bad jokes. I found the most beautiful dress for a steal and she got a veil that matched it perfectly. I couldn’t be happier.
I had the best experience at Norman’s, I love the fact that they have their dresses online. So I got to inform Katlyn about the dresses I wanted to try on before hand. When I got there every dress I mentioned was pulled and ready for me to try on. Love that their appointments are 1.5 hrs as well gives you plenty of time to try on lots of dresses and try your favorites back on! Did not expect to buy a dress yesterday, but when you find the one you just know. Thanks Katlyn and Norman’s for the ultimate bridal experience!

We are so happy you loved the experience. Congratulations on finding your dress and thank you for the sweet review.
I had the BEST experience shopping at Norman's! My consultant Patty was truly amazing. She listened to what I wanted and pulled wonderful dresses for me to try on that were just like what I wanted. The first dress I tried on ended up being the one I fell in love with. Patty must have known, because we always compared the other dresses to the first one. She also did a fantastic job with my opinionated group of supporters. I would highly recommend going to Norman's to find the perfect dress so that you can say yes to the dress!!

They were amazing and so sweet in helping me find my gown! I had mentioned a specific dress I liked from Pinterest when I scheduled my appointment and they had it ready in my fitting room when I arrived to try on dresses! It ended up being my wedding gown. Super happy with my experience all around!
