The Bridal Boutique at Always a Bridesmaid Reviews

Reviewed On 1/06/2022 by Jacqueline C
I honestly can't thank the team at The Bridal Boutique enough for all they've done for me over the last two years. After searching for months, I found my dream dress! The team was super helpful during my appointment and listened to my thoughts ...
on what I wanted instead of pushing trunk show dresses at me (like other places had). After I found my dress, they helped me find my bridesmaids dresses, too! Once COVID postponed my wedding, they were happy to store my dress for me and hold on to it until I was ready for my fittings. Even my fittings were quick and easy! Plus, my husband got his tux from there, too, and the team ensured he would match me and my bridesmaids. My dad and grandfather even went here for their tuxedos! This is truly the best place for a one-stop shop for all things wedding!

Now, its time for me to get married and I immediately went to The Bridal Boutique. When I first went there Diana had made my appointment. She is always so helpful and sweet. I am currently working with Marianne and made my experience of finding a wedding gown such a pleasure. Not only did I get my Bridal gown there I also have purchased my bridesmaids dresses at The Bridal Boutique. I would highly recommend this place. I have highly recommended them to all my friends which purchased all there dresses there as well. Everyone that works there is nothing short of amazing. The manager Melissa is also amazing. Thank you guys again.

Response from the Vendor on 07/01/2020
We apologize for the misunderstanding. We started these giveaways as a way to put a smile on a Brides face during these rough times, whether it was one of our own or like yourself who we hadn't met. We stated we wouldn't pick the same bride tw...

LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!!!! My wife & I had the absolute BEST wedding experience with the Bridal Boutique. I had already found my wedding dress at a store in NJ the day before I met Melissa at a wedding expo. I planned to go and purchase the dress th...
e following weekend. As soon as I met Melissa I knew that I wanted to look at the Bridal Boutique before I made my purchase. She scheduled me an appointment and the rest was history. Melissa was able to order my dress to her store, and she worked with my wife to help bring her jumper vision to life. We worked with Diana & Melissa and purchased all our bridesmaid dresses, alterations, jewelry, accessories, flower girl dresses, and even our tuxedo's with the Bridal Boutique. Not only did we get the best price, but we got the best customer service. We feel like family. When I called Diana & Melissa knew exactly who I was, and assisted with anything we needed. Our bridal party looked GORGEOUS and we couldn't be happier! We received so many compliments on how sharp the men's tuxedo's were. More importantly, all the guys said they have rented tuxedo's in the past but these were such a great fit and so unbelievable comfortable. Our girls looked flawless. Each had a different style dress which flattered their shape and the alterations were done perfectly to fit their bodies. My wife had a very specific vision in her mind which acquired a lot of alterations to make her jumper fit her body the way she wanted. The ladies worked so hard to make this happen for Meghan. (Diana and Mel, I know she drove you crazy, thank you for being patient with her!) She looked gorgeous and felt amazing. The compliments she received are still flowing in. My wedding dress, ohh my beautiful wedding dress!! It was PERFECT! Shirley altered it perfectly, and I wish I could wear it every single day. It was so comfortable, and fit me exactly how I wanted. My bustle was such a pain (had 12 hooks) But Shirley explained that by making it this way my dress would not lose its whimsical shape, and she was so right! We shopped around for almost a year before we found the Bridal Boutique, but we are so glad we did. I was the bride who did ALL my research and went to a billion places so believe me when I say if you are not shopping here, you are 100% missing out on great options, great prices but most importantly great people. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you so much Melissa & Diana and the rest of the staff at the Bridal Boutique. I'm bringing in my dress to preserve it, so I will see you girls soon! XOXO Danielle & Meghan

I came here recently with my maid of honor and mother to pick out bridesmaid dresses. The three of us were blown away by the friendly and professional service given to us by Leila. I knew I wanted a pink dress, but did not have a style in mind....
Leila took us to the back and helped us pick out 20+ different styles from different designers in all shades of pink. If my MOH was not comfortable in a dress she helped her out of it right away and we moved on. Leila was extremely patient, helpful, and gave us great ideas such as adding a belt or adding jewels to the straps on some of the more plain dresses to make it more personalized. If we wanted to see more dresses by a designer, or a dress in another color, Leila gladly went and grabbed the dresses for us. We wound up leaving with three possible styles and it is going to be so difficult to choose just one. All of the bridesmaid dresses, in my opinion, are very reasonably priced and made of high quality material. We had such a great experience here and I can’t wait to bring my bridesmaids back to try on the dresses we chose. Thanks again Leila!! I’ll see you in September to find a dress for my mom!

I am so excited for the dress to come in and I cannot wait to wear it on my wedding day. I highly recommend working with these ladies to find the dress of your dreams. I was taken right away for my appointment, assisted every step of the way and was treated very kindly. Thank you everyone for all your help! Ladies if you're looking for a dress be sure to stop here.

I had my bridesmaids get their dresses here: same color, different cuts. MELISSA WAS WONDERFUL!!! My bridal party had both plus size and size 0 ladies, some of whom were 15 years apart from one another. All of them looked fabulous. After ev...
eryone had their measurements taken, and my maid of honor who was on this insane diet had signed a contract that she would be size X by such and such date, called to tell me she was pregnant....!!! By the wedding, she was 7.5 months pregnant. So I called Melissa in tears and they were like "NO PROBLEM, THIS HAPPENS ALL THE TIME." They fixed everything for her. They even added sleeves to two of the dresses, which was extra, but alterations are always extra. I think my girls were really happy. I will only give this one critique - they need to hire more seamstresses!!! They had to reschedule three out of five of my girls' appointments because they had overbooked the seamstress, and this was very hard for my maid of honor because she was driving pregnant and from Pennsylvania. But other than that, fantastic place.

I got my bridesmaid dresses from here and my mom's dress. I have to say all the dresses were beautiful and all the alterations they did came out great. The prices were about the same as listed at other stores for the same dresses however they...
did include most of the alterations (didn't include putting cups in for girls who chose to do that). When you first walk in some of the women who work there can sometimes come off rude however as your appointment continues they become very friendly and nice. Even with the bitchyness I would still recommend the place they have a great selection and the alterations are included for bridesmaid dresses which is a big help for your girls. Trust me I have spent over $100 on bridesmaid dress alterations in the past. I did have some girls who chose to pay for their alterations and get them done elsewhere due to where they live, Always a Bridesmaid was flexible in shipping it to them directly at no extra charge. They also allowed out of town girls call in their measurements however, i will warn if you have your girls do this make sure they get their measurements done professionally.

rse dyed to match my dress and they came out a completely different color. I was given a nasty attitude by the manager and not given a refund for damaging my shoes and bag. Several of the other bridesmaid were screamed at by the seamstress for their dresses not fitting (if the salesgirls took proper measurements and ordered correctly, this wouldn't be an issue). On one occassion, the manager and seamstress verbally attacked one of the other bridesmaids making her cry. On a separate occassion, another bridesmaid's dress was not taken in enough and they threatened to not do any further alteration because they believed she lost too much weight and they shouldn't have to do extra work(she lost 2 pounds, clearly the seamstress did not take the dress in enough based on the first fitting). Overall, unprofessional, sloppy work. Spend your money elsewhere!! No one should pay for this type of treatment by anyone.
