The Savvy Bride

and slow as I wanted. She was knowledgeable, friendly and confident. I tried on so many beautiful gowns that I loved and ultimately bought my my dress there and she was my first and only shop. Highly highly recommend!

esses. I had three other appointments with local CT shops that I promptly cancelled after visiting her store! She opened her shop for us and we were the only ones in the store, so we had her undivided attention. I had gone on the Instagram account for her shop and liked some photos of dresses. Erica had seen this and had a selection waiting for me curated to my style. we tried on maybe 6-8 dresses. I loved several. the final dress was one she pulled based on her understanding of my must-haves. I have to say, if was the perfect dress. Erica has incredible instincts and taste when it comes to dress selection. I said "yes!" and was able to take my dress home with me that day. Erica was very conscientious of our budget and helped me stay true to our target price point. She was a great balance of attentive as well as giving me privacy to change. I was very comfortable and felt like I was in great hands! I had a wonderful experience. I would recommend The Savvy Bride over and over again! Thank you Erica!

The pre-visit questionnaire was thorough and gave Erica insight into my style and preferences. I loved the one-on-one appointment because it felt more personable than being one of a dozen brides at another bridal shop. She was present and also gave space, which was a perfect mix. Erica fits you to sizes that are similar to your current size in order to give you a realistic image of what you’ll look like on your wedding day. The second I put my dress on (naturally, it was the very last one I tried on), my mom was in tears. The dress had elements of everything I wanted. It was my wedding dress. Erica was so incredibly patient with me as I tried on a number of dresses, asked questions, shared concerns about how I thought I looked, and graciously went through the racks with my mom to see what other dresses were available for me to try on. Not to mention, the gowns at The Savvy Bride are well taken care of and beautiful. Erica does not find “any old dress” to place on the racks, she is intentional with the gowns she brings into her store, which is so important. It was also instant gratification to be able to pick up my dress shortly after finding it as opposed to waiting months for it to come in. She even provided a seamstress recommendation, who tailored and pressed my dress (and veil) beautifully. Highly recommend The Savvy Bride, you won’t be disappointed!

add to it. She also recommended a fantastic seamstress that made my dress fit like it was made for me. Highly recommend making an appointment before going to other salons as their prices are also fantastic and the dresses are in near perfect condition.

nd was a great sport with my crazy family there lol I 10000% recommend her and her shop- all the dresses were so stunning and in great condition. Highly highly recommend.

answers and I ended up falling in love with one of those dresses! I could continue to gush about our experience but the best way to describe... PERFECT!

so helpful from the beginning. She had a questionnaire that asked what styles of dresses do you like, what pictures do you like, your budget, etc. From there, she chose the ones that best fit my criteria to try on. Her shop is so cozy and cute! The front of the store has all the dresses and accessories out for you to look at. In the back is where you try on with a cute little couch for your entourage. In the end, I found the best dress for me and it was so reasonably priced! The size was a little big so she recommended a seamstress who could help with alternations. I am obsessed with my dress and wish I could wear it again! Overall, you will not be disappointed at The Savvy Bride!

change and continued to love (even more) was my dress. Not only was my dress amazing, the experience at the savvy bride was unlike anywhere else. You are the only bride in the salon which makes you feel like you are the only priority at that time. Erica really goes out of her way for her customers to ensure their happiness, beauty, and comfort. Such a great experience and highly recommend!

al dresses at a discounted space, but it was truly Erica and her studio who made this experience so comfortable and rewarding. Everyone should go to Savvy Bride and work with Erica!!!! I love my dress and was so thrilled with my experience.

nce !!

rica was so helpful in figuring out what kind of dress I liked - I started out thinking I would like a more simple style, and she quickly figured out that I actually wanted something with a little more sparkle. I tried on 12 dresses total, and mine was the 6th one. I was so impressed with Erica’s ability to pick out dresses that I would like. I ended up with a beautiful dress, at a very fair price. Before I took it home, she noticed a tiny tear in one area and fixed it up for me so it was perfect. Would highly recommend!

pier.

intment and have the shop to yourself so the owner of the shop helps out as much as you'd like her to during your time there. Good range of sizes and styles. Plus, the dresses are off the rack so you get to take it home the same day. I also used the seamstress the owner recommended, and had a great experience with my customizations. I recommend this shop to all of my NYC/CT engaged friends!

ulled a dress out and told me to just try it on. I FELL IN LOVE! From only trying on a few dresses she got a feel of styles I liked and what I was looking for. I can’t wait to finally wear my dress!!

ly clean and very cute, she’s very organized and professional. She never puts any pressure on you! On top of all of that, if you’re like me and want to be reasonable and rational about how much money you spend, this place is PERFECT for you! I walked out with my dream dress and am so thankful to Erica!

not be distracted by any other customer because she gives you her undivided attention for your one on one appointment. No pressure, very positive atmosphere the whole way through!

and accommodating. I tried each of the 6 dresses on about twice each time narrowing it down. Erica helped by guiding me, asking me what I liked about the dress I was in. She truly became another member of my bridal team that day! I went to other stores and I highly recommend Erica at The Savvy Bride!!

e, being bigger than A SIZE 2 (12-14) no shops had a great enough selection. I mean there were some but just not the one for me. Thank goodness I popped into this shop and said yes to my dream dress! Thank you high recommend!

her best to pull dresses that represent exactly what you describe. She has great suggestions, advice and at the end of the day wants you to be happy. After going to numerous bridal shops, I can honestly say there is no place with better gown selection, quality and price. I highly recommend this place!

received a questionnaire which provided me an opportunity to let Erica know what I thought I wanted! When we arrived to the appointment my girls and I were warmly greeted! Erica explained to us what she does and how the appointment was going to go and we got started!! She had options ready based on the answers from questionnaire I had completed (it was short and sweet!) and was extremely patient throughout the entire process! Her presence made me feel so relaxed and I knew I was in good hands! The prices and options there were amazing!! I truly had my fairy tale experience! I cannot say enough good things about Erica and The Savvy Bride!

e the one she picked became my dress. The price and experience was fantastic.
