About this vendor
Hi! I'm Rebecca the owner and stylist of Something White. My bridal shop specializes in styling brides to feel effortless, sophisticated and classic while in a private and relaxed atmosphere. I am obsessed with wedding gowns (and coffee!) but what I love most about owning a bridal shop is that feeling of excitement that overtakes the room when a bride finds THE gown that makes them feel confident, excited and beautiful! You know that feeling you get in any clothing store dressing room when you know you look good?! I want that feeling x 10 for your wedding gown and when I help brides find that gown it really is magical. The gowns I curate are classic and romantic with clean lines, quality fabrics and flattering silhouettes. They are unique and special and you won't see them on every bride in Cleveland- which I love. I take one appointment at a time to give you one on one attention and once you find your gown I walk you through what happens next with timelines and alterations. I also go one step further and provide day of Bridal Concierge Services for brides who want that level of service. Excited?! So am I! Gowns start at $4000 ish and you can book your appointment via my website: www.somethingwhitebridal.com

I had a wonderful experience here – above and beyond any other bridal salon in Cleveland! Rebecca was incredibly warm, welcoming and attentive to every detail. She made the wedding dress shopping process enjoyable and helped me find the perfect dress and topper with patience. She carries a stunning selection of gowns. I highly recommend working with Rebecca – she is an expert and really loves assisting brides!
TLDR; Rebecca is amazing and Something White should 100% be a stop on your wedding dress search.
I don’t know quite how to say it other than Rebecca is THE best. From my very first appointment to when I picked up my dress (and even since then!) the experience has been top tier.
For starters, there wasn’t a moment when I was in her shop when I wasn’t getting her undivided attention. She was engaged and genuinely excited from the minute we walked in the door. Her intuition is amazing. The dress I ended up with wasn’t even on my radar, but it became the standout winner because she was able to quickly understand what I liked and didn’t like, curating the perfect dresses for me to try. She was thoughtful, helpful and patient as I weighed my options and provided valuable details about each gown and the variety of ways they could be worn or styled. In short, she’s really good at what she does!!
Beyond picking my dress, Rebecca helped me envision my whole look for the wedding day AND for other wedding related events, even sending me a potential rehearsal dinner dress that she thought I’d like after I’d picked up my gown.
Rebecca is just a really great person. She’s positive and kind and genuinely curious and caring. She makes you feel special and the time spent in her store feels like time spent with a friend. I can’t say enough good things about Rebecca and Something White. Every time I left the shop I left feeling happier and even more excited for my wedding. I HIGHLY recommend.
Beautiful store. Rebecca was very helpful!
I purchased a Pronovias gown from Rebecca for my wedding in June. I loved the boutique style shop. She was so helpful. I could not have loved my gown more. Everyone at the wedding would not stop complimenting the dress. Highly recommend!!
Rebecca helped me find my dream dress, which just happened to be a sample! Once my sisters and I picked the dress, she gave us champagne and put on music and made me feel so special. The dresses at this salon are beautiful and unique.
I thought I would like looking for a dress but never LOVE the process! Rebecca made the dress experience unforgettable! I get excited just thinking about it. It felt so personal. She truly understood my vision to an extent that I never dreamed anyone else would!
I thought the dress would be special but I never thought I would ever love a garment of clothing SO much! It feels like so much more than a dress. It feels like a piece of the wedding that can live on beyond the special day.
Rebecca is absolutely lovely to work with. She is so genuine- kind and inviting to everyone I brought to the shop. She is so very patient. I truly feel like I gained a friend in the wedding process.
Something White was my first stop on my dress search as a suggestion from a cousin. I anticipated needing to go to 4-5 (or more). That first stop was my only stop, and I have not second guessed myself once! I could not imagine going to another shop or working with anyone else.
Thank you Something White and thank you Rebecca for making me feel so special months before I even walk down the aisle! I continue to smile ear to ear when I think about the dress search experience!
I can’t say enough amazing things about Something White and Rebecca!!!! From the minute I walked in, I felt so welcomed. She took the time to meet the special people I brought with me, learn about my fiancé, and truly understand the styles I liked and the vision I wanted. She has the most amazing quality and selection of dresses, I was in awe. They are all classy, timeless, and stunning. Rebecca helped me pick out the dress of my dreams!!! I felt so beautiful and I can’t wait for my big day!!! Thank you Rebecca, I am honored to be a Something White Bride!
Seriously the BEST experience I could have imagined ! I was so nervous to try dresses on and didn’t know if I’d be confident in my body! But you made it so magical, easy, and such a fun experience ✨ I felt so sexy, confident, showed off all the curves, and truly felt the most beautiful bride ever on our special day🥺 I LOVED the long veil for the ceremony and pics, then the short one for the reception🤍✨Thank you for being the amazing person you are and I am truly forever #somethingbride and so so happy❤️
She was extremely professional and knows what she is doing. I had to do a survey prior to going to her shop to help her clue in on what kind of dress I was considering. Once there, she was very easy to work with and calming. She even pointed me in the direction of several dresses I wasn't sure if I would like that I ended up loving. I tried on ~10 dresses and found my dress within a half hour! I would recommend her to anybody in the area.
Something White is a top notch bridal boutique! Rebecca has a special selection of gowns that fit my style and the elegant look I was dreaming of for my wedding. She knows her gowns and is really great at putting you in something you wouldn’t pick on your own, but ends up looking great on your body. I couldn’t have had a better experience and I definitely recommend Something White to any bride looking for a couture gown and a highly professional shopping experience!
Rebecca was the best! Cute shop with everything I could want and the right touch of professional yet comfortable. She helped me find the perfect dress and made everything from there even easier! Thanks Something White!
I found Something White on The Knot and read all the reviews. I am not a traditional bride age and was very nervous about looking for dresses. I made a shop opening appointment with the hope of having a positive first dress appointment with two of my bridesmaids and was not disappointed. From the moment I booked the appointment, Rebecca started texting me and asking questions about my vision and style. By the time we arrived for our appointment, I was already comfortable and she had selected several styles that I would not have chosen myself.
Since this was my first appointment, I wanted to keep looking but knew I had found a contender. After a whirlwind weekend of dress shopping, I went back to Something White to try the first dress on again and immediately knew it was THE ONE! The quality of dresses is outstanding and I'm looking forward to getting married in the perfect gown.
I had the best experience with Rebecca, both buying my wedding dress at Something White and having her at the wedding for the bridal concierge services. First, she has such a gorgeous collection of dresses - they are classic, elegant, and just beautiful. I picked out a few options that I wanted to try on but she also knew how to select the perfect dresses based on my preferences and what she thought would look amazing. Also, if you ask Rebecca for her opinion, she will provide you with the truth, which I found incredibly valuable. I love the dress that I chose and received so many compliments on the wedding day and even still to this day! Also, I couldn’t have done it without Rebecca on the day of the wedding via the bridal concierge services. She helped me look and feel gorgeous and confident. She steamed my dress several times (even between pictures and the ceremony), gave me and the bridal party a bunch of tips and tricks, assisted with photos, and is preserving my dress. She’s also just an amazing person to be around, and I very much value her advice. Thank you thank you thank you to Rebecca for being there for me on my big day!
I had a wonderful experience buying my dress at Something White! Rebecca is bubbly and so knowledgeable, and she has a wide variety of dresses both in style and price point. I wasn’t impressed with a dress she suggested, but I tried it on anyways…and it was perfect! It fit me like a glove and was exactly what I didn’t know I wanted.
I also went through the dress buying experience before COVID shutdowns, and my dress arrived after. Rebecca was so wonderful and kind during the process and the emotional ups and downs and unknowns.
I 100% recommend shopping at Something White!
When it was time to make my first dress appointment I scheduled it at Something White without hesitation. My sister and best friend both found their perfect dresses here.
The experience was top notch! I have since been to 3 other salons and SW takes the cake for professionalism, respectfulness, dress selection and a welcoming environment! Although I didn’t end up with a dress from SW it was hands down the best experience I had shopping for a dress.
My experience at Something White was nothing short of amazing. After having a not so great experience buying my dress at another bridal shop, Rebecca instantly made me feel like SUCH a bride. I came in for an accessories appointment to pick out a hair piece, jewelry, and veil. Rebecca thoughtfully and patiently chose pieces that matched my style and I received so many compliments on those pieces on my wedding day. I can’t recommend Something White enough! 10/10 you will not regret it!!
Rebecca made my experience of finding a dress amazing. After visiting countless other shops where my thoughts and ideas were not listened to, I was finally heard here. Rebecca did not put any pressure on me and listened to what I wanted. I couldn’t be happier with what I chose - along with my beautiful veil & belt. Thank you Rebecca for everything & making me feel my absolute best!
Rebecca was a joy to work with! She made the entire process easy and fun. HIGHLY recommend her to anyone looking for timeless, beautiful gowns.
Something White was the first store that I went to to try on bridal gowns, and I was so lucky to have hit the jackpot on my first try! I was looking for a sophisticated, simple gown, which is not always easy to find in the bridal world. Rebecca is incredible, and words can't even express how helpful she has been to me during this process. From the care that goes into her inventory selection, the private shopping experience, and the top tier customer service, the entire experience has exceeded my expectations. I can't recommend it enough!
I am a fashion minimalist, so for my wedding I was looking for something simple and elegant. When I looked online at other vendors in the neighborhood, the dresses just weren't my style. Something White had the perfect balance of simple, elegant dresses that still looked bridal and special for that special day. I loved everything I tried on!
Where Rebecca shines is in her ability to coach a bride through this big decision in a stress-free way. Rebecca made sure I never felt overwhelmed. She had lots of tips and tricks that helped me narrow down the decision, and I left feeling super confident in the dress I picked. I just picked up my dress in my size and it is even better than I could have imagined and I am so excited to wear it at my May wedding.
I cannot speak highly enough of Rebecca and her bridal gown boutique, Something White. It was my first wedding adventure, and she certainly set the bar high!
When scheduling an appointment, I completed a survey that inquired about gown preferences and had me select gowns from the Something White Pinterest. Immediately when I entered the boutique, it was clear she had reviewed my answers and Pinterest selected gowns. She was familiar with what I was looking for, but also encouraged me to try on a few gowns outside my expected style.
In trying on gowns, Rebecca's presence and vibe has been unmatched. She was quick to "fit" the gowns, so that each one felt perfect. All of her gowns are of top quality and excellent design. It is difficult to not feel bridal in each one.
What has stood out to me about Something White weeks later, is the quality of assistance Rebecca provides her brides. In determining a favorite gown, she asked perfect, prompting questions, but was always positive and genuine. Our fitting ran long, but I never felt rushed or pressured to make a decision. She has maintained excellent communication since my visit, and I cannot wait to return back!
My Something White experience was perfection! Rebecca (the owner) is wonderful and was able to quickly identify the look I was going for. The gowns at this store are gorgeous and of higher quality than many other places. I especially liked that there wasn’t an overwhelming amount of gowns in stock. There is certainly a range of styles for each type of bride but the selection is well curated so I felt confident that I was trying on the best of the best. When it came to making the final decision, Rebecca’s supportive yet decisive approach guided me to the dress of my dreams.
Something White made finding my wedding dress such a great experience, and despite the challenges with having to postpone and replan the wedding due to COVID-19, Rebecca was SO helpful and kind the entire time! The shop is super responsive and went the extra mile to make sure every detail was perfect! I would definitely recommend Something White to all future brides and will be sending friends and family there for years to come!
Rebecca is so sweet and has amazing taste. Her store is chic with a surprising amount of gowns. She definitely has something for everybody.
Such a beautiful shop! I loved that it was by appointment so it was very private. Rebecca was so professional and knowledgeable. But best of all, the gowns were beautiful! Found my perfect dress!
Something white was the first bridal salon I booked at. They carry my favorite designer, Carol Hannah, and I was beyond excited to try get started trying on gowns. I booked my appointment for the sample room, as I had a lower budget than the regular part of the shop. I took my future mother in law and my friend with me and we were greeted by the owner, Rebecca, who ran my appointment. She was beyond friendly and personable and made me feel very comfortable and welcome. She got us set up and comfortable in the lounge and we discussed my vision for my wedding. I am a very open minded person so I gave her small guidelines and creative freedom so she could do what she's best at and it did NOT disappoint!! We tried on a variety of styles and had an absolute blast and I ended up picking the first gown I tried on. Rebecca styled my hair and put a veil on me and I lost it. I would above and beyond recommend this salon and Rebecca. She is very passionate and excited about her work and it shows. Thank you so much, Rebecca! I love my gown!
Rebecca and everything about Something White is the BEST! It was the first and only bridal appointment I had to find my wedding dress and after trying on about 10, I knew. Rebecca does a nice job of figuring out what your style is before your appointment so she helps start you off with a couple choices and with individual appointments, it's really nice to not feel pressured while figuring out what you love about each dress. It's also nice that there's plenty to choose from but it's not too many where it's overwhelming - the perfect balance. Picking accessories like the veil and jewelry was an easy pick too. I highly recommend!
I couldn't have asked for a better experience picking out my wedding dress! Becky was unbelievably accommodating and welcoming. She shared in all the emotions that me and my group felt and seriously catered to our every need. I'm SO glad that I went there. If you want an individualized, intimate experience, go to Something White!!! THANK YOU!!!
I had a specific gown in mind, and Something White was the only boutique in the area that had it. I am SO happy I made the trip! Once we got there, Rebecca was so kind and patient. I tried on about 10 dresses to make sure I was confident with my choice. Once I put my favorite dress back on, Rebecca put my hair up and added some accessories to help me see the whole picture. I would 100% reccomend Something White!
Something White is a beautiful, local shop located in the center of Independence Ohio. It has a wonderful home-like feeling when you step in. The dresses to choose from are absolutely gorgeous ranging from different styles that are up to date with the current trends. Rebecca, the owner, is extremely amazing. What she has done for the healthcare community this year was heartwarming. I am honored to have been apart of it. Rebecca went out of her way to help our frontline workers who are fighting Covid 19 by giving away free dresses. This year has been extremely stressful and depressing, shining a little light to the community deffinetly helped brighten up the year. It was an emotional experience and we are truly grateful. Something White is an amazing bridal store and I would 1000% recommend to anyone looking for their dream dress.
The shop was so cute. Rebecca was amazing, so personable and fun. She made me feel comfortable and confident.
Rebecca was a dream to work with. We had the shop to ourselves, which truly made the experience low pressure and enjoyable. Rebecca did a great job of listening to what I was looking for. I had a great experience and would definitely recommend Something White for future brides.
I found Something White on just a google search for bridal shops in the area. Making an appointment was so easy online, and she had very pointed questions on her intake form so she knew exactly what I was looking for before my appointment, including my dream dress I found online that I went into the appointment with as the one to beat. Even with Covid, I could bring my Mom and best friend from out of town to the appointment with me. We were all in masks and washed our hands upon entering. Rebecca is the owner/operator consultant and made me feel like I was the only bride in world at that moment in time. She didn't have any other appointments during the time we were there (about 2 hours) so we got the adorable shop to ourselves. The shop itself is an old house that has been converted into business use. There were just the right amount of dresses to look through without feeling overwhelmed (less than 500 probably). After we all had the opportunity to pull dresses, we went into the dressing room and to try on. Rebecca always let me lead when asking how a dress made me feel and if I wanted to show my Mom and friend. She gave us space when I was taking a dress in or considering how I felt about it. I probably tried on about 15 dresses or so altogether. I tried on a dress where I loved the bottom and said "Yes!" to the crepe material, but was not sold on the dress completely. Rebecca was not pushy at all in helping me decide if this dress was the one, but instead offered up suggestions about what we could do to see if changing the top would help me love it. We tried on several different bodice tops over the existing top, and she had great insight into what alterations could do to make this dress one of a kind and exactly what I wanted. I ended up getting the dress with the bottom I loved off the sample rack, in addition to a bodice top that alterations will use to create my perfect dream dress! I had the BEST dress shopping experience and got to go home with a dress THAT day within my budget. Her website says dresses range from about $3-47K which is true for most of her dresses in shop, but my two sample pieces together were more like $2K because of taking them off the rack, as-is. I will be recommending Rebecca and her shop to all my bride-to-be friends. Thank you for a such a great experience!
I had the best experience at Something White. Rebecca went above and beyond. I emailed her a lot regarding appts, dresses, fit, every single email she was so helpful. When I arrived with my friends she made us feel so welcome, and we all had so much fun. She made my experience incredible and something that I will always remember. If you want an amazing bridal gown go here , and the help of them is wonderful. I am so happy I went here and I am obsessed and in love with my gown! Best place to go in Cleveland.
Rebecca was amazing! She made me feel very comfortable throughout the entire process. I ended up purchasing my gorgeous Pronovias dress from the salon. Don't hesitate, go visit!
This was the first place we went to in search of the perfect dress for my wedding day! Rebecca was SO welcoming and listened to everything I said about my vision. She pulled several different styles that all looked amazing. I originally picked something white as they carried the dress I was so hoping would be the one, but ultimately Rebecca knew me better and pulled a different dress by the same designer and I FELL IN LOVE! I could not recommend Something White more! It was an amazing experience!
I visited multiple boutiques in the area and ultimately purchased my dress from Rebecca (who is absolutely wonderful). I had this preconceived notion in my head that dress shopping would be a stressful and dramatic experience like the show "say yes to the dress". I was a bit nervous to start this process but Something White completely changed my outlook, everything from my first appointment to leaving with my beautiful dress was an absolute joy and truly a breeze. Rebecca knew from my facial expressions if I loved it or not, she is honest, persitant and so extremely kind. I felt she was on a personal mission to find the perfect dress for me and she succeeded, I AM OBSESSED WITH MY DRESS. Afterward, I sat in the car and said out loud, "she made this so easy", literally, the most trouble spot was missing the driveway which I can probably point to user error. Not only was she so extremely helpful in helping me find the perfect dress but helped me with other aspects of my wedding. A few months after I picked up my dress and said my goodbyes, I reached out in a panic after my videographer bailed. She quickly had a few references and those people had references. With two months left til my wedding, selecting my dress was the most enjoyable and painless part of my planning process. I feel extremely fortunate to have these memories. We need more boutiques like Something White and the world needs more Rebeccas!
Rebecca, the owner is fantastic! I arrived on the wrong date for my appointment by complete accident and she was so kind & generous to work with me to fit me in that day. It was the day I found my dream dress, so I am beyond thankful for her accommodations. She put in everything I wanted to see and didn’t bother making me try on something I knew I wouldn’t like. It was a wonderful experience, I could not say a negative word about the entire process start to finish! I appreciate her help and guidance to finding the perfect dress for me. She listened to every detail that I explained about what I was looking for and found me the ONE!
I just went through the wedding dress shopping process and after visiting several locations in the Cleveland area, can confidently say this boutique was off the charts. Something White was the first boutique I visited. We were very pleased with how thoughtful the store was about making our experience safe and comfortable given COVID precautions. There was sanitizer throughout, we all wore masks, and were asked to wash hands immediately upon arriving. We were also happy that our appointment gave us the entire boutique to ourselves.
We worked with Rebecca who was incredibly fun. She has a knack for understanding brides and what they are looking for, and was very fun to work with throughout the process. I never felt pressure from her and she was very good at gauging how I was feeling about everything. After visiting several stores and trying on many many dresses, I ended up picking the very first one I tried on at Something White. When we returned to confirm that it was the one, Rebecca went above and beyond to make me feel special and make my decision something to celebrate. Thanks so much for an awesome experience. Looking forward to continuing to work with this boutique throughout the rest of the dress process.
Thank you Rebecca at Something White for making my wedding dress shopping experience celebratory, special, and stress-free! Something White has a gorgeous variety of styles from quality designers housed in a beautiful historic home with a welcoming, calming ambiance. You can tell Rebecca has curated thoughtful options to choose from and loves what she does! Seriously, her shop is GORGEOUS and dreamy with beautiful accessories displayed upstairs to complete your look. From the moment we walked in Rebecca shared my enthusiasm for finding the perfect dress, ensuring the choice was mine alone, and made me feel beautiful. She spoke knowledgable about the dresses, styles, fabrics, designers, and alteration suggestions. Standing in the try-on area upstairs I burst into tears when I tried on "the dress." Rebecca helped me add a veil and jewelry to complete the look and really envision myself on the day. Celebratory bubbles followed along with helpful answers to all my questions regarding ordering, shipping, altering, etc. I was also able to book a second appointment to try the dress on again, take my measurements, and walk through all next steps. Rebecca was so patient helping me decide which size to choose and how to handle alterations. She made everything as stress free as possible and I am so thankful!
A note on Covid: The entire shop was spotless and sanitized, everyone wore masks, used purell at the door, and audience was limited (2 guests + bride). The only time masks were removed was for sips of champagne and to take a picture in the final dress. As a germophobe myself I felt completely comfortable in the shop.
I highly recommend Something White if you are looking for a beautiful dress and stress-free experience!
Professional, personal, and an excellent assortment of classic and contemporary inventory at Something White. Rebecca (owner/consultant) guided me through the decision making process with ease and excitement. She was transparent, attentive, and clearly very knowledgeable about the industry. Something White is a standout both in the service and product you will experience. I am so so glad I bought my Wedding gown from Something White!
Fabulous experience! Wonderful selection of beautiful dresses and accessories. Highly recommend!
Rebecca with Something White was incredible through the whole process of helping me find my dream dress! The appointment was very easy to make and she was very attentive to any questions I had. I loved the "First Visit Gown Appointment"- where it was a one-on-one 1-hour 30-minute appointment. She was extraordinarily helpful and so sweet. I would absolutely recommend Something White to my family, friends, and anyone who is looking for the professional gown expertise that Rebecca had to offer. It was a wonderful day!
Rebecca was absolutely amazing! She listened to what I liked and didn't like about each dress. Her patients and thoughtful consideration helped me to find my wonderful dress that I love! I highly recommend Something White. They also did an amazing job helping me have a wonderful experience, even with COVID-19 restrictions enacted.
I was so excited to finally be able to go out and search in person for my dream dress! Rebecca was so sweet and so much fun to help me search for my dream dress. She was full of energy and excitement for me the entire time and was so knowable on dresses and helping me to select dresses that really suited me well! I was able to see a wide range of styles and really narrow down to a clear idea of what I wanted without feeling overwhelmed throughout the process! I could not have asked for a more perfect experience; her shop was absolutely adorable, im beyond in love and obsessed with my dress and would highly recommend Something White to any bride!!!!
This shop is an experience! Right from the start Rebecca makes you feel like the most important bride to walk through the door! It is a personal experience and I brought my mom and sister. I was lucky enough to fall in love with the first dress I tried on, but I did try on so many beautiful gowns. Highly recommend!!!
I had a great experience at Something White. The online tools made it easy to get scheduled, and Rebecca did a fantastic job helping me find my dress. I came by myself, and she was very patient with me while I got in touch with my mom and friends for their takes after I had decided which dress I liked best. I bought it as a sample dress and am very happy with my decision! When I realized I had forgotten my checkbook, Rebecca again was awesome and worked with me to sort out paying via Zelle. I definitely recommend paying her a visit.
Something White was the sixth dress shop I visited - and the last! Rebecca had a wonderful selection of classic and modern gowns in a wide variety of silhouettes. She was able to take my feedback in what I was looking for in a dress and was able to pull a variety of styles that fit the description. Once I found the dress, the order and pickup process was very well explained and easy to follow. While Something White does not do alterations in house, Rebecca offers referrals to seamstresses if you do not have someone in mind to complete the alterations.
Traveled from Detroit to Cleveland just to visit Something White and with Rebecca, I found my amazing Pronovias dress (that was only at her unique store and one other shop in Chicago) She also had a trunk show of dresses for me to look at. I looked everywhere and found no boutique to be as unique and simplistic as hers. I really wanted a unique dress, no big ball gowns or sleath dresses everyone has seen time and time again. I wanted to make a statement and she helped me do just that. Couldn't have been better and was so happy to have that moment. WORTH THE TRIP :)
Rebecca was wonderful! It was so nice to be the only bride-to-be in the store during my appointment. I was able to take my time and make the right decision and say yes to the dress! Thank you!
Rebecca is absolutely amazing and I would highly recommend Something White to any bride! It was a totally different experience than the other bridal boutiques I went to. Rebecca was so accommodating. I scheduled my appointment during a time outside her normal hours for a fee which went toward my dress. The store itself was gorgeous with a large area for my mom and MOH to sit. Rebecca had me send her links to my Pinterest ahead of time so she could have a better idea of what I wanted. I showed her a few pictures again that day and the very first dress she pulled for me wound up being the one! She knew right away that she had a a perfect gown for me. We still tried on dresses after that but nothing beat the first dress. She did an amazing job listening to me during the entire appointment and was constantly asking me how I was feeling. She was patient, allowing me to try on different styles and we talked about what I did and didn’t like. At the end we decided to put the first dress back on. Rebecca got me in my dress and went above and beyond. She went downstairs to get hair pins and pinned my hair back, put on my veil, and gave me different jewelry. I was nervous about making such a big decision and she was so patient. She allowed me to have plenty of time to wear my dress while I decided. I went into the appointment not expecting to purchase that day and had anticipated coming back for a second appointment to officially say “yes”. When I decided to say yes that day, she popped some champagne for us and I could tell she was genuinely happy for me - I never felt like just a monetary value to her. I can tell she goes above and beyond for each one of her brides. After I got changed back she went over all the paper work and details about ordering. She was very professional and helpful in every way. I left the shop on cloud nine and can not wait for my gown to come in. My appointment with her was exactly what girls dream of when they think of dress shopping!
You cannot make a better decision than to go to Something White and work with Rebecca to find your wedding dress. From the moment you walk in the door, you feel like you're in your own little bridal world. Rebecca takes the time to find out your likes and dislikes are, what type of ceremony you're having, what your reception venue style is, and she works with you to pick dresses that are PHENOMENAL. She truly has a great eye and a great sense of style and can advise you on things to try, how to adjust the dress, considerations to keep in mind for the day of, etc. The styles and selection of dresses that she carries are outstanding. I had previously lived in New York for school and work and returned home to Ohio recently, and for part of my wedding search I visited Mark Ingram Atelier, Kleinfeld's, and Wedding Atelier, and I have to say, Something White tops them all - from customer service to communication via email, phone, or even instagram, to an outstanding dress selection with fabulous designers. You will not regret a beautiful afternoon spent at Something White with Rebecca and you will very likely find your wedding dress here like I did!
Rebecca was the absolute best! She was so positive and excited to help me find my wedding dress. She took her time in finding the perfect one by listening to the type of style I wanted. She even took the time to do my hair, let me select earrings, as well as provided her expert opinions on what type of vail to wear. She even provided my Mother and I a champagne toast when I found the one. I have never met such a more genuine person to help me find the most important dress of my life!
Absolutely stunning collection of dresses geared toward a more traditional style. Rebecca is simply fabulous. I feel like she has a sixth sense for knowing a bride's style and some kind of telepathy, because I'd be thinking something and she would say it. She was honest, and truly helpful with my questions. She even took the time to put my hair into a similar style I wanted to wear for the wedding day, accessorize with jewelry and a veil, and let me have the full experience. She is a true gem, and seemed more excited that I am getting my dream dress than that she was selling me a dress. I could not be happier I got my gown from Something White!!
This was my fifth bridal shop I visited and I am so happy and pleased with the service and especially PATIENCE that Rebecca gave me during my visit. She picked up on cues when I wasn't feeling a dress and would have me in the next dress without hesitation. The dress I actually bought wasn't even on the rack for display but was a sample dress she hand-picked from a back sample room after learning what I liked and disliked about previous dresses. As soon as I had it on, I knew. She was patient with my mom and I as I went through multiple different belts and accessories and let me oogle at myself in the mirror with the dress on as long as I wanted, mind you it was past closing time as well. Highly recommend stopping in. Kind, patient, and very personable.
I wish I had a good experience here, but it was the total opposite. I felt the woman I worked with was judgmental from the moment I walked it. She didn't love my budget and made that very clear, I felt her dresses were overpriced for what they were and she tried to charge me $50 just for coming in to look at dresses and AGAIN to come back in to retry on a dress I was serious about (and she knew that). I called to schedule the apt. and then she proceeded to call me back to let me know that there was going to be a charge.... I asked if she could waive the charge since she clearly knew I loved this dress and I had made the apt. already without any knowledge of the fee and she didn't budge at all. She also essentially told me I was wasting her time because I couldn't commit to dropping $3k on a dress that I put on once for no more than 5 minutes. As much as I loved the dress, I didn't feel like I could buy a dress and work with this woman who was rude to both my family and myself. I do not recommend.
Rebecca was amazing and helped me find my dream dress! She was patient and extremely helpful!
Where to start! Rebecca @ Something White is amazing and made me feel so special during my appointment. I could go on and on about how wonderful my experience was, but what you need to know is that gown shopping in the Cleveland area without a stop at Something White is a mistake! I was thrilled to support a local, women-owned boutique who so graciously takes care of their clients, with my purchase and you will too!
More detail if you're interested:
I never thought that I would buy during my first weekend of bridal appointments but I fell in love with the first dress Rebecca recommended for me. I was torn between the first and second one I tried on and she helped me customize by combining features of the two which is something I never could have dreamed up on my own. I love that they only take one bride at a time so that you are never fighting over a dress and you have their full attention during the appointment. They help you get into each dress you try on in a completely separate room from your entourage and they always ask how you're feeling before sending you out into the main room to make sure they can help control the conversation. She patiently walked me through sizing options to find the best fit, and even called me a week later to let me know that the designer was able to accommodate my three-way split instead of the default two-way sizing. She made my group feel so welcome and celebrated the decision with champagne for the whole crew.
I had been perusing Pinterest and other sites to look for wedding dress ideas. One dress in particular kept popping up and I found myself drawn to it. After tracking in down, I found out it was a dress by designer Carol Hannah. Great!! The search was on...one problem....only 10 stores in the USA carry Carol Hannah designs and not one location near me.
However, I would be traveling for work and be within a few hundred miles of Something White and they have THE DRESS!!! I hopped on the website and saw that Something White was appointment only with clear expectations on arrival times and cancellations. I eagerly made an appointment. I was very apprehensive about being the only customer in the shop during my visit and worried I might be pressured into purchasing something.
On that much anticipated day, I wasn't going to get to the appointment on time. I was devastated but prepared not to see THE DRESS. I called and spoke with Rebecca. She was understanding and agreed to wait during my appointment time. I explained I was not interested in trying on numerous dresses....I just wanted to see THE DRESS.
When I arrived (29 minutes late), I was anxious and nervous and starting to think that there was no way I was meant to have THE DRESS.
Immediately upon arrival I was met with a warm and inviting smile on Rebecca's face. She had THE DRESS ready for me to look at and try on. She even had additional dresses with the same whimsical style I was in love with. Walking through the front door felt like walking into my home. Warm, inviting, and the furthest thing from pressuring.
I am happy to report that after trying on THE DRESS, I committed and made the purchase!!! Rebecca and Something White are coordinating the shipment to my home as well as helping me contact another location that can assist with alterations. The only disappointing thing I could ever say about Something White is that they are too far from my home!!! They offer so many great items to complete your special day and they treat you like family.
Something White is worth driving several hundred miles!! I promise you won't be disappointed.
I am so happy I found my wedding gown at Something White! I was on the hunt for a Lela Rose gown and they were the only the place in the area that had what I was looking for. I found it really convenient that they have available dresses on their Pinterest page, so you know beforehand what to expect and try on. My consultant was calm and organized and didn't rush the process, which is something my mom and I really appreciated when it was time to make a decision.
