The Dressing Room

Let me first state, I’m a newcomer to Wilmington Nc and coming from Atlanta the shopping is dramatically different, I went to several bridal shops in Wilmington including David’s Bridal before going to The Dressing Room and I was prepared for a Drive to Raleigh, Charlotte or Atlanta to find my perfect dress. Or quite possibly just settle... This was my last effort for a dress in Wilmington. I made the appointment for the upcoming Saturday morning and would have a friend go with me. I was greeted by an employee that was finishing u with a customer. She asked me what type of/ style of dress I was I wanted, when I was getting married, and where. Typical questions, she explained the layout of the store asked us to browse around while she pulled a few for me to try on. I’m a size 5/6 and if you’ve ever shopped for a wedding dress - that’s not your size. Feeling bad about size, she assured me that happens everyone. I know I looked at what felt like 100 dresses & tried on at least 15. The LAST 3 she pulled, wasn’t the style I was looking for, but they were pretty. I tried the first one and OMG I liked it & my friend liked it as well. The second one, that was it ... I loved it, the employees loved it, and my friend loved it!! I knew this was MY dress. A customer came in and commented on how gorgeous my dress was ... the owner came in and noted how pretty I looked in the dress and how GREAT the fit was for an off the rack dress! Theresa (owner) has a belt she had just walked in with this set the dress off!!! She told me they had an in-house seamstress that could the minimal alterations. We set that up. I’ve had 3 fitting and 13 days away from my big day. I can’t wait to see my husband look at me as I walk down the aisle in this dress. Each person here was helpful, courtesy, and professional. My dress is high quality and gorgeous. Please go check them out - you won’t be disappointed!!!

I had a great time shopping here for my dress. The store owner, Theresa, was extremely helpful and suggested dresses she thought would fit my shape and budget. She has a wonderful eye and I ended up falling in love with and purchasing a dress she picked out for me. I would absolutely suggest this shop to any brides to be in the Wilmington area! #budgetfriendly #greatselection

This was the first place I went to try on wedding dresses and I had a wonderful experience there! I tried on many different styles, which helped me make my mind up about the style that best fit my body type. The staff was extremely helpful and made everything more enjoyable! They had many different sizes as well! Great customer service and willingness to help!

I want to thank the owner of The Dressing Room for helping two people look as good on the outside as we felt on the inside. I was a full figured bride and had the perfect dress in my mind, to my surprise the owner of The Dressing Room had a better view of me than I had of myself. She picked out a dress for me that I thought no way and again to my surprise it was perfect, I cried because I looked so awesome. Since then I took my new daughter in- law to The Dressing Room, (size 2) and also she had the perfect dress in her mind the owner was hesitant but pulled that style and she looked like a size 10. We all laughed and laughed, well again the owner picked her dress style best for her and wow was she rocking it. We were all blown away.
