TESI BRIDAL and FORMAL

Tesi and her team are absolutely wonderful! Finding my perfect wedding dress and fitting all my bridesmaids was so easy! Donna was so sweet and helpful and was always a smiling face every time I came into the boutique. Thank you ladies for making me so beautiful on my wedding day!

Absolutely Awful! NO REFUNDS. Tesi herself has UPSET the entire wedding party Right Before the Wedding. I am the officiant of my nieces wedding. Fully paid for my two young sons tuxes and mine last December. The three tuxes came in. Here it is the Wednesday before the wedding in June and mine was Not what I ordered and was wrong in practically every fit. No REFUND period. $220 bucks + tax wasted. Plus I paid for my 2 young sons a total of $440, and my niece's entire wedding party went there along with a wedding dress bought there. Talked to Tesi herself. Absolutely no way could I get a refund. Prices are ridiculous and no refunds. Don't pay for anything until you are fitted and happy. Better yet - Go Anywhere Else. I believe Every Tux throughout the party was a wrong fit and had to go back and get refitted. Tesi is a extremely poor business woman. In the event of a disaster, NO REFUND. I asked Tesi what if I hadn't paid in full. Her answer was than she would have had to taken the lose. Bologna - hard to believe she owns a business at all. No Morals for this business owner. I asked for a small portion back so that whatever it cost her would be covered. 0% REFUND. Tesi should be Out of Business.

terrible customer service; lied to repeatedly about when my dress would arrive to the store and did not return phone calls when they said they would repeatedly. My dress finally came in less than a month before my wedding date and i brought it home a week before the wedding. During my fitting the seamstress made a noise while looking at the back of my dress, when i looked at her she smiled and said its nothing. The back buttons of my dress would not stay hooked during my wedding day. Getting my dress somewhere else would have saved me a lot of tears and stress.

Tesi definitely made me feel so special throughout the entire process. My appointment felt like an episode of Say Yes to the Dress as she customized my wedding dress to be exactly what I wanted. She gave me personal attention and made sure I was happy, even if that meant reading the impression on my face. The in-house seamstress worked wonders on my customized dress. I would recommend to every bride to buy their dress from Tesi!

Tesi and her team were great! When shopping for a wedding gown they were so helpful, and listened to all my concerns/needs. Their selection is amazing, and in different price ranges. It only took about 3 dresses prior before I found the dress of my dreams. While my wedding gown did take 10 months to come in, a little longer than they had predicted, Tesi made sure to rectify the situation. My dress was tailored within 1 week, and my mother bought her gown there as well. I received endless compliments on how they dress looked like it was specifically made for me!

After visiting many bridal salons looking for bridesmaid dresses and seeing the same dresses over and over again, Tesi bridal gave a wider and unique variety. The staff was so helpful creating the Christmas theme with all of my girls. I definitely recommend them to other brides. Thank you Tesi Bridal for creating a look that my guests are still talking about!

Tesi and her staff were wonderful! I went in with a list from their online inventory and also got to select favorites from their iPad. Ali was so helpful in both actually getting me in and out of the dresses and great making suggestions. It really is worth it to try on different styles even if you already have a dream dress in mind. I got a gorgeous dress that was a combination of so many elements that I love. I got to see my dress in first dance lighting, walk the red carpet and celebrate with mimosas! We even had time for my sisters to try on bridesmaid dresses. They have a huge selection of styles and colors. Thank you!

BEST PLACE to go! Tesi is amazing and so is her staff. The best recommendation for is to try on everything. Tesi will pick dresses that you wouldn't of thought but she pick a winner for sure! I also tell anyone I know looking for a bridal gown to go here, nowhere else I would go!

I regret having to give two stars, but my girls and I did not have a great experience with Tesi's. The employees were incredibly nice and helpful and that's why I didn't give one star. The cost of alterations were astronomically high especially when you take into consideration the fact that my buttons popped off my dress and my straps broke AT THE WEDDING. My Maid of Honor's dress broke the morning of the wedding as well. We had to sew her into her dress because the zipper literally fell off. As I said, the employees are wonderful, but it is not worth it to shop at Tesi's. Poor quality work with ridiculously high prices.

I purchased my dress from Tesi for my July wedding and I could not have been happier! During the initial appointment, they were so helpful and patient in helping me find the perfect dress. There was a huge variety of styles to choose from. They gave honest feedback and were great about finding the perfect veil, belt, etc to go with the dress. The dress came in even earlier than they predicted All of my fittings went very smoothly and the workers were sure to teach my bridesmaids exactly how to bustle the dress which proved very helpful on the wedding day itself. They even let me bring my veil to the salon for my hair trial and then bring it back for them to steam before the big day. I highly suggest using Tesi!

Just purchased my dress from Tesi Bridal today and I am beyond happy! I had the experience I was hoping for. I tried on a few beautiful dresses, some multiple times, and found "the one"! We had a chance to meet Tesi who was incredibly kind. Alyssa helped me find my dress and she went above and beyond to make sure I found what I wanted. She was incredibly patient when I asked to keep retrying the same two dresses just to be sure I picked the right one for me. She offered a lot of opinions and advice that helped me better understand what the best choice was and what I would be happiest in. She made sure I left happy with the dress and veil I chose and with a price within my budget. I am so appreciative of how thorough Alyssa was. She truly made this experience the one I was hoping for. I am SO happy to say I said yes to my dress at Tesi Bridal!!

I had an amazing experience at TESI's Bridal. It was the very first place I began looking for my wedding dress, and I didn't have to go any further! From the moment I walked through the door, everyone was so welcoming. Tesi is absolutely wonderful and gave me her honest opinion each time she saw me in a different dress. Ali was my associate and she was amazing. I had a style I thought I liked, but also went in with an open mind. I showed Ali a picture as well as marked off my favorite styles on their iPad gallery. She was SO helpful, patient and honest. She was very accommodating (I can be indecisive at times) and pulled veils and necklaces and different beading to really help me see myself in my perfect dress. I ended up purchasing the very first one I tried on and I couldn't be happier!

I initially had a great experience in finding my dress at Tesi Bridal. However, it all went downhill when I brought my dress in for alterations, which were quite expensive compared to other quotes. The seamstress was quite pushy. I was adding straps, and it took a while before she agreed to do them in the style I requested. In the end, they were placed so close to my armpits that it was incredibly painful and my mom had to fix them just days before my wedding. When they shortened my dress, they left it about 1-2 inches too long, and she did not listen to me at all when I said it was too long, insisting it was fine. The next time I came in I absolutely demanded they shorten the dress, and she finally agreed I was right about the length. I will say she did an excellent job with fitting the dress to my chest and hips, so I was quite pleased with those areas. However, it was quite stressful, as it took FIVE appointments to get things right!! My final appointment - in which the length and straps were supposed to be fixed again - took place about four days before my wedding, and they were trying to convince me that I could just pick it up the day BEFORE my wedding. I had to demand to get it sooner, as there would've been no time at all to fix anything if it were still incorrect. It all should've been fixed by my third appointment, but it took five, and I had brought it in with plenty of time to do the alterations. It was very stressful to be less than a week away from my wedding and still not have my dress altered correctly! The only reason I'm giving 2 stars instead of 1 is that most of the sales associates were kind, and the seamstress did do a good job fitting most of the dress, especially as the bottom lace had to be hand-sewn to hem it (but it had to be done twice!). If you're going to get your alterations done here, bring your dress in ASAP or you might not have it done in time, and don't listen if they try to tell you that most brides have their final fittings just a day before their wedding!!

I hate to give a poor review, but I personally did not have the kind of experience that I had hoped for at Tesi Bridal. They were the biggest (and really the only) source of stress I had while planning my wedding. Although I loved my dress in the end, I just don't think it was worth all the stress. I would have rather gone to someplace like Free Love in Cape May, where they make a big fuss over their brides, pop champagne and give out cupcakes, and all around treat their brides the way a Bridal salon should. Tesi's will not give you that kind of personalized, special treatment. Bad customer service, bad communication, just don't go to them...

I love Tesi Bridal. Tesi picked out the perfect dress for me! She has been so kind and helpful!

Shopping at Tesi's bridal and formal has been amazing! Halie at Tesi's helped me find the most perfect dress for a great price. She was so patient and positive and showed me everything that I wanted to see to make sure I picked just the right dress for me. We are also ordering my grooms tux and the boys tuxs there as well and Alex has also been so great! Tesi's also threw an evening for the mother of the brides with a fashion show, food, dj and amazing dresses, all for the moms! It was so fun to go to and made my mom's feel so special. I can't wait for my fitting in February and to continue my experience with Tesi Bridal and Formal.

Tesi was amazing to work with! She was so accommodating, professional, and helpful every step of the way.

Went to Tesi on a whim to look for a dress and was told it was by appointment only. Asked if I could look at some dresses to see if there were any I liked and was handed an iPad. I'm a visual person, so can't base dresses off a screen, but decided to make an appointment anyway. My consultant picked out some dresses based on my vision, but not for me without major alterations. Asked if I could parouse around on the dresses they had an wasn't allowed to. Although the consultant was very friendly and professional, I (personally) didn't like not being able to see the full gamut of options.

TESI's was a wonderful experience for finding my wedding dress. I went in with an open mind, but also described to their styling team of what I thought I wanted. I originally wanted a long sleeve dress since I am getting married in December, but after trying on strapless dresses, I knew the strapless dresses were for me. I would have been very uncomfortable throughout the entire day if I chose a long sleeve gown. Alyssa was so kind and helpful and pulled the most perfect dresses with little detail that I gave her. It was also so nice to have the area where you try on the dresses to myself. I felt so comfortable coming out in all of the dresses. I said yes and a few weeks later my mom said yes to her MOB dress! Tesi is a sweet lady and will give you the best advice and opinions. I would definitely recommend to speak to Tesi if you are unsure about anything.

I had a wonderful experience here. Out of all the dresses I had picked to try on- it was actually their choice for me that was my perfect dream dress. Very thankful for them!!!

What a wonderful experience! Tesi's staff makes you feel like family. I purchased my wedding gown, had custom alterations, my bridesmaids' dresses, mother of the bride and grandmother of the bride dresses all from Tesi's. When shopping for my wedding gown, Sara helped me identify specific details that I liked and disliked to help me find the perfect dress. At no point did I feel pressured to purchase a gown during my appointment and I actually bought a gown that was about half of the budget I had given. That just goes to show that they truly care about the bride feeling beautiful and not about the sale. My gown had customized alterations to achieve my vision. The seamstresses spent time with me to understand exactly what my vision was and how we could achieve it. I am in love with my wedding dress and my husband and guests kept telling me it was the most beautiful dress they had ever seen! Even during the seamstress appointments, Halie and Tesi would meet with us to ensure that I was happy. My "bridesmaid" dresses were actually from Tesi's prom collection. When one of the dresses came in slightly different, Tesi corrected the issue immediately and the dress was replaced within a week. As I said, my mother and grandmother also purchased their dresses at Tesi's. The owner helped us pick the perfect dresses for the occasion and stayed well within our budget. There were even 2 occasions that Tesi's advised me to postpone my purchase due to an upcoming sale at the store. My entire look from the dress, veil and jewelry all came from Tesi's. I would recommend Tesi's to any bride or woman looking for a special occasion dress because the entire staff truly values the relationship with the customer. In addition to great customer service, they also have a beautiful and wide selection which is constantly being updated. My wedding gown was only carried by Tesi's and 1 other bridal shop in the state of NJ and Tesi's price was several hundred dollars less than the other location. I cannot thank Tesi and her staff enough for making my vision come to life on my most important day. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

Tesi Bridal did a fabulous job helping me find my dream wedding dress! Halie worked extra hard to find exactly what I liked, and what style was most flattering for my body type! Everyone at the salon was super friendly and super helpful! The experience at Tesi is one I will never, ever forget!! I highly recommend visiting Tesi if you are looking for wedding gowns! They truly know how to treat a bride-to-be!!

I am so glad I found Tesi Bridal and Formal! I am a Pennsylvania bride who called all my local bridal stores looking for a specific dress. I was told by several PA stores that it was a dress from the designer's new line that won't be available in any stores for months, maybe not even until next year! I called Tesi Bridal on a Thursday and spoke with Halie who was more than willing to try to help me find this dress. Not only was she able to get the dress in store for me to try on but it was there less than 2 days later so I could pop in while I was down the shore for the weekend anyway. I tried it on, loved it, and ordered it that day! Thank you so much to Halie and Tesi for helping me hunt down my dream dress!

Thank you to all of my girls at Tesi's from the bottom of my heart!! From the minute my mom & I walked in we felt at ease... Which was surprising because we had 3 months until the wedding and still no dress! We found my wedding gown that same day!! Through all of the fittings, alterations, shoes, earrings, and above and beyond service... They were all there every step of the way with a smile! I couldn't have asked for more! Everyone there is helpful, knowledgeable, and sweet!! And to top it off they made getting all of the tuxes a breeze!! Thank you so much again!! Love you all!! Xoxo, Stef

I cannot thank Tesi's and Halie enough for helping me find my dream dress! Everyone has been so amazing and personable, making my experience so enjoyable! I cannot wait to work with such an amazing group of people over the next year! Thank you Tesi's and most importantly Halie for making me feel absolutely beautiful in my dress!

Okay so this review is a little difficult for me because there were a lot of challenges in working with Tesi's Bridal, but at the same time, the dress turned out GORGEOUS and they have a very good selection. Hayley is a manager there and is a God-send. I felt like she had my back every time they tried to throw an extra charge at me or had to reschedule an appointment because they forgot to work on the dress. I live in DC so to reschedule a fitting (or forget to call me to reschedule, especially a week before the wedding) is more than an inconvenience. I think the root of my issues is that they sold me a dress size 12 (I'm a size 2/4) and sold me on a vision of what could be done to the dress to make it more the style I was looking for. Hayley had the vision of what the dress I would love would look like and what it would take to alter the dress to make it that certain way. We were on the same page; she knows what is beautiful. But...no one else seemed to be on that wavelength, especially the seamtresses (I did enjoy working with Angela though). So often an alteration would be made, and it wouldn't be what we talked about causing A LOT of time, frustration, and confusion for all of us. There was also the issue about surprise alteration charges, even though I bought the dress for that price because the custom alteration charges were supposedly included. Again, Hayley rectified the situation. In the end, my dress was amazing and my cousins even want to wear it and their weddings (it matches my great grandmothers veil.) If you were buying a dress with standard alterations, Tesi's is probably a great place. I did enjoy working with them before there were any issues, and even now I can't be too mad because it turned out beautiful - just a very stressful process.

I had the best bridal experience ever at Tesi Bridal shop! Everything was absolutely perfect. I found my dream dress. It has everything I wanted and more. The staff was beyond amazingly perfect, especially Halie Pierce. Halie helped me in and out every dress until we found my perfect dream dress. She is a bridal angel I highly recommend going to visit Tesi Bridal shop. It was the best decision I've ever made! I SAID YES TO MY DRESS AT TESI BRIDAL! ❤️❤️❤️

Amazing Experience at TESI! I made an weekday evening appointment with my mom, SIL, & MIL, and had a great meeting with Hailie, who helped me look through images of dresses to try on, all of which were within my budget. She was upfront about pricing and scheduling, it was like working with a friend! I was stressed about the timeline (approx 6-month engagement), but my dress came in about 3 weeks before, and a couple fittings later, my dress was perfect and ready to go the Thursday before the wedding. Everyone I met there was so nice, and the seamstresses are especially kind, patient, and helpful. I was not pushed to purchase accessories or shoes, although they were offered to help me get an idea of what I would look like if I purchased similar items elsewhere. Thank you for a great value, amazing experience, and awesome service. :)

DO NOT BUY ANYTHING FROM THIS PLACE! I'm a member of a bridal party who ordered through Tesi. I had alterations done through them and even with the horrible reviews I still went though with it all. The wedding was this past Sunday and my dress came not zippered so when I went to go zipper it would not go over the belt they added on. It took over an hour and almost 15 people later to cut the belt off just to repair. I was not in many photos because of this and had to even walk to venue with dress open in back. It was horrible. I just spoke with Tessi and all she wanted was the name and number of the person who fixed the dress and said maybe she will refund that cost. NOT THE 100$ CHARGE FOR ALTERATIONS. I told them I would be getting a attorney involved and writing this review to warn future people. She didnt care, just told me not to threaten her. I did not threaten but if your not going to make an effort to help an unhappy customer then you obviously do not care about your clients. buyer beware. I think think says a lot about the staff even for local bridal parties wanting to work with this staff. DO NOT BUY FROM THERE

Beautiful selection of gowns for all occasions and I was so happy to finally say yes to my dress! Halie was my saving grace with this experience. From the beginning, she truly did a fantastic job. Not only was she attentive in during my visits, but she even took the time to talk to me after hours when I needed her help, answering every call and text. She was always quick to respond and never made me feel like an imposition. Her kindness and patience made some other bumps in the road easier to get through. Any issues brought to her attention were quickly addressed, and she would personally reach out to me to ensure everything was taken care of. The experience that myself, my mom and my bridesmaids had with Halie were wonderful and I cannot thank her enough for all she did to help it all come together in the end. Even after the wedding, Halie took the time to contact me to extend her well wishes and to ask how the big day went. A very sincere thank you to Halie for all you did, and for being an extremely genuine and caring person!

Stay away this place it's horrible, I would give it zero stars if it let me. They are scammers, and just looking for an extra $. They wait until after we placed the order with them and left, to tell us that our dresses weren't going to get there in time, 2hrs after we left charging us an extra $45 each for an express shipping. And now we can't cancel since they "placed the order". So it leaves you know choice but to pay for the express shipping. Meanwhile I found the exact dress for $100 less online and express shipping was only $20. So I would be paying over $50 less with shipping for what the dress originally costed there. They were extremely rude about it they don't mention that all sales are final they have you sign all these papers and don't give you time to read them because they are so worried about getting to the next person and won't even give you some type of deal for an alteration even though they knew prior to ordering that it wasn't going to be there in time. I would never go there again and would not ever suggested it to anyone else.

Tesi, Haley, and Alex are WONDERFUL. Tesi has a great selection of absolutely gorgeous dresses. I chose my wedding dress, bridesmaid dresses, MOG dress, tuxes and a dress for my honeymoon all from Tesi and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this place to anyone. Haley is particularly amazing in helping you to find the dress of your dreams. I think before I even had each dress half way on she was able to pinpoint my exact reaction just like when I put on "the one" she said okay lets try this one- I think this is the one, and it was. She really listens to what you want and what you absolutely do not want and is honest about what works best for you in a totally professional way. Tesi and Alex are also so helpful and amazing to make sure everything is the way you want it to be. LOVE Haley, Tesi, Alex and the whole Tesi Bridal and Formal Team !

My dress was absolutely beautiful that I picked from this shop and it fit like a glove! The owner Tesi is extremely sweet and helpful and the sales staff could not be better. I would definitely recommend anyone to use the shop and to ask to speak to Tesi if you have any problems because she will immediately do whatever she can to make you happy!

I could not thank Tesi Bridal and Formal enough for making my wedding dress shopping so amazing. From the phone call with Amanda helping me make my appointment, to Sara having such wonderful patience with me, to Tesi coming out and telling me how beautiful I looked in my dress, all of that made everything perfect. I felt like I was at home with my best friend helping me try on dresses. Sara was amazing and if it was not for her, I would not have found my gorgeous Mori Lee dress. The dress selection was incredible, the staff were so friendly and uplifting, and the shop was clean and much bigger than I had expected. Thank you again for making my day and my family's day more than we could have ever dreamed!!

Brides Beware!!! We ordered bridesmaid dresses in March for a September wedding. The dresses did not arrive until 3 weeks until the wedding. When the wedding party attempted to make appointments for alterations we were told they were booked solid and that they would have to double book us and we wouldn't get the full attention at our alteration appointments. I live 45 minutes away from the shop so when I heard that I decided to get my alterations done elsewhere. Not at any time did they warn us to make appointments prior to the dresses coming in because they only do alterations on Sundays and Wednesdays. When the dress arrived at my house, it was the WRONG COLOR! When I attempted to call the shop to speak with some one the bride had already done so and they would not answer my calls!!! I had to finally call from my desk line at work for someone to pick up the phone. They tried to hide their mistake by saying the designer had messed up but I found the copy of my orginal receipt that had the wrong color. When I finally got through to speak with someone they were less than helpful and said that the manager had already spoken to the bride and she "didn't know what to tell me." They did not do anything to help us remedy the situation. The only way they said they could help was for us to take the sample dress at the store and they were going to make us pay for the sample dress! Finally the bride decided that the maid of honor would wear the wrong color dress. It turned out beautiful but without help from Tesi. I had to drive down there 3 separate times to get fitted and finally picked my dress up the day before the wedding which I had to take off of work an extra day to do so. I still paid full price. Everytime I called the store no one knew what was going on. The communication within the shop is horrible! Everytime I called I had to explain the story over again. If you do not want to worry when ordering multiple dresses then I do not suggest you do business with them! This was a bride's worst nightmare.

Where can I even begin! This is the BEST place to get your gown. I went to TESI for my first time trying on dresses. The entire staff was very helpful and patient. I tried on many dresses and they helped me to find THE ONE on my first shopping trip. The quality of the dresses carried was exceptional. The seamstress was great and very talented. All of the staff was wonderful and made me feel special every time I was in the boutique. I absolutely love my dress, the entire shopping and fitting experience and the friendships I have made along the way. I cant thank Tesi and her entire staff enough for making the gown shopping experience stress free and fun! I highly recommend this boutique to anyone!

Used Tesi for my bridal gown, my bridesmaids gowns, and my mother's gown. Had a few miscommunications, but things were always solved and done the way that I needed them. Very nice people and willing to help.

I had a great experience at Tesi Bridal and Formal. I tried on many, many gowns with Tesi's assistance and said yes to an Allure Bridal dress. I got the dress half price, because of the Memorial day sale/sample sale! Luckily, it fit like a glove and didn't need alterations, but I had the train cut and turned into lace cap type sleeves. I had 3 alteration visits. Each visit ran on time and the alterations came out as promised, at a fair price. I also purchased earrings and hair jewelry from Tesi's shop. Tesi's has quite a selection of shoes and jewelry. Overall, it was a very easy shop to deal with, appointments were easy to make, Tesi and her staff were knowledgeable about their inventory, and I found my perfect dress there!

I had the best experience a bride could ask for here. Found my gown and bridal dresses. The staff is so friendly, helpful and they made it such a fun time! Great variety of styles and value. Love them!

Where do I begin? Tesi's far exceeded my expectations. From the day I walked into her boutique, I was greeted with a warm and friendly smile. She was more then accommodating with our budget and style and showed sincere care in our satisfaction. When we finally "Said yes to the dress" it was smooth sailing. My dress was altered (at Tesi's) down quite a few sizes and fit perfectly! Every fitting was right on schedule and simple! It was such a pleasure to be able to work with someone who cares so much for their brides... and an honor. We will never forget how much Tesi contributed to our Wedding Day and how beautiful she made us look and feel.

After an email for a sample sale, I decided I'd check out TESI for my gown. They were affordable and staff was friendly. I love my dress, it was perfect and totally fit my budget. My only recommendation would be a little more excitement behind "the moment." After trying on several dresses, I kept looking at one I had tried because it was comfortable and simple. There wasn't that vibe we see all the time in "Say Yes to the Dress." I had hoped to hear cheers and hugs, but instead I felt unsure of myself. TESI has beautiful gowns, is efficient with cleaning, and even sent me a thank you card, if they could create that "moment" they would be the best.

Tesi's store has gorgeous dresses to choose from. Alex and Tesi were both very helpful when it came to finding a dress to fit my figure. I fell in-love with my Allure dress and received so many compliments about how beautiful my dress was.

I had such a great experience at Tesi's! Everyone was so helpful and made my dress buying experience easy and fun!

I am an older bride who found finding an appropriate wedding dress quite a challenge. I visited at least five stores and was very disappointed with both the selection and service. It seemed like no one was interested in helping a mature bride find a style that was not strapless and form fitting. I stumbled upon Tesi Bridal because I was interested in a specific gown they carried. Tesi herself assisted me and pulled the gown I wanted to try on as well as several others in the style I described to her. After seeing how terrible I looked in the dress I thought I would love, she very gently asked if she could offer a suggestion. I gladly tried on the dress she pulled, and fell instantly in love with it! I had been looking at styles that were classic and age appropriate, but not suited for my body type. The dress she suggested had the structure I needed to compliment my shape. I did not care for the train on the gown, and I wanted sleeves, and Tesi assured me the train could be removed, and used to make sleeves. The seamstress and the other staff were always welcoming and helpful at my fittings, and I also purchased shoes there that were actually comfortable! I felt beautiful on my wedding day thanks to Tesi and the staff at Tesi Bridal. They are simply the best!

Loved my dress, the store and the people.

The bridal boutique had a great selection of wedding dresses. I did all my initial search in NYC and found that at Tesi, they had a lot of the same in the lesser priced category. However, I did not love the alterations.....they were expensive and not 100% to my liking as the dress was longer than I had wanted. I expressed my concern to the seamstress but she was insistant it was perfect. It was fine but I would have liked another 1/2 inch off. Maybe it was my fault for not pushing more. Also, the blusher was not sewed onto my veil rather, they placed double-stick tape that got into my hair at the wedding. Thankfully my bridesmaid who was taking off the veil for me was so meticulous, she was able to remove the double-stick tape from my hear without ruining my hair style.

Tesi the owner is very involved in finding the perfect dress. I had no idea what I wanted Tesi made me stop to think what did I really want for the big day. She helped me design the perfect dress of my dreams by calling the designer and ensuring they could alter an Allure dress that fit my ideal dress. I had three fitting still unsure if it was perfect she had me come in one last time and personally made sure it was perfect! I also lived in Maryland and she was super flexible in scheduling the fittings. I am sure it was nerves knowing the big day was coming but she made sure I was happy and helped take all my concerns away all while the shop was about to move to Northfield NJ in a few days. Can you believe Tesi still took the time?!? Thank you Jamie Holland

I got my Casablanca dress from Tesi Bridal in Ventnor (near Atlantic City). Tesi was great but she ended up having a baby during my process but I must say the girls that ran the shop were great. I loved Crystal. I got my dress off the rack and got it altered to fit me. The seamstress was wonderful. She let out the sides and added fabric from the bottom! You couldn't even tell. She also added lace sleeves. I also got my veil there and I loved it so much!!!! It matched my dress perfectly. I got all the bridesmaids and flower girl dresses there too. They were wonderful! Everything matched so well. Their selection is the best around! The only reason why I am not giving them an A+ is because of the tuxes that we rented from them; two had sleeves that were too long and one had pants that were too short. Tesi, herself, ended up fixing the sleeves the night before the wedding, which was very nice of her. The pants were tried on right before the wedding due to my father-in-law living out of town, so nothing could be done about it then. I do have to say that Tesi uses a company for the tuxes so it's not her fault. Overall, I am very happy I chose Tesi's.

Loved the dress, the service and the price!

Tesi is the absolute best at the Jersey Shore area. Very quaint boutique with alot to offer. She is hands on with all brides. Her selection is top end and reasonably priced. I LOVE my wedding dress and can't wait to wear it on Oct 15, 2011. She helped me put together my entire ensemble, from headpiece to jewelry and shoes. I walked in and found everything the same night. What better service than that! Thanks Tesi!!! I will continue to send brides to Tesi.

Tesi Bridal Boutique will have the wedding dress of your dreams! I was impressed with not only the wide selection of dresses at this boutique, but the knowledgeable and very helpful staff. Tesi is always there to give her valuable input as well. This boutique also has a private bridal suite, making the bride-to-be feel truly special! Alterations done on site were absolutely impeccable. Highly recommend!

I bought my beautiful "Pronovias" dress at Tesi's....it was perfect. Second dress I tried on and it was exactly what I was looking for, her staff and tailor did a wonderful job getting me ready for my big day!

My dress was amazing. When I first went to pick out my dress the ladies there we extremly nice and helpful. As it got closer to my big day the two ladies had left and I was disappointed in the service of the other associates. The seamstress was very nice, but my dress ended up being too tight. They have a great selection of designers and are reasonably priced. I would definitly recommend this bridal shop.

I was fortunate to be able to buy my dress from Tesi during a Thanksgiving weekend sale. I was able to select a sample dress of the rack which was half off. Though this alone made the experience great, Tesi and her staff went above and beyond in helping me alter the dress to make it uniquely my own. Along with fitting it to me, they were receptive to my requests to make changes such as removing an applique I wasn't happy with and making the bottom of the dress a little more fitted. This is a small shop but the staff and service truly make a difference in the shopping and alterations process.

The staff were all so helpful and nice! They did everything they could to make you happy and I had quite a few alterations to my dress and it turned out to be beautiful!
