The Sentimentalist

bi was a great listener and open to all of our feedback and gave my daughter individual attention for the entire appointment. We definitely found THE dress and had “the moment”. It was more than we could have ever expected. Just perfect. Plus...the dress was under our budget! It was PERFECT. Even with masks due to COVID precautions..... Wish I could afford to go to Gabi for all my clothes!!!

inue to recommend anyone who is looking for a wedding dress and amazing service!

ind a dress I never would have picked from a trunk sale. After thinking about it for a few days I went back and was lucky enough to be paired up with the owner Gabi and wow she made my dreams come true! She talked me through any issues, pulled lace samples and even spoke with the dress designer during my appointment to help me make a one of a kind and amazing dress! I couldn't be happier and the whole process was easy and felt pressure free!

ut more appropriate for my wedding. I was not disappointed and Hannah did a great job of helping me pick out the right dress.

my Mom and sister and was hoping I'd find my wedding dress as my sister was visiting from California for the weekend. Rhiannon already had a dress in her mind she thought I would love based on the description I offered when I booked my appointment. I tried that one on first and LOVED it. I tried many more on, in lots of styles. There was zero pressure from her to go in any direction (style-wise or price) and she made it feel like I was shopping with a friend. I ended up going with the first dress I tried on, the one she had imagined I would love, and I couldn't be happier! She even worked some kind of magic and pinned my hair up in about 20 seconds in this sweet way so I could see what the dress would look like with my hair up. The shop is so beautiful and fun to be in...if you're looking for a laid back environment that also offers such a fun and special experience, this is it!

d beautiful accessories for the dress I finally chose as well. Could not be more excited about the experience.

o The Sentimentalist, it was so fun and unique! These ladies know how to pick dresses based on what you tell them you’re interested in. The dress I found was not what I imagined saying yes to, but it was absolutely perfect! They stay within your budget and make the experience very fun and relaxing.

in all areas of my budget and even gave me extra recommendations to customize my dress for me when I was torn between 2 looks (and it happened to be no extra cost). Now my dress is one of a kind! The vibe and atmosphere are definitely fun and exciting. I also loved how spacious it is for your friends to come with you and feel comfortable. It definitely was a full experience. Going back to pick up my dress also was equally wonderful. 10/10

time accommodations to my consultant was incredible. Felt like they knew my own head better than I did during the process! I was in and out with the dress of my dreams in 2 hours feeling so confident and not second guessing anything. If you go anywhere to dress shop, GO HERE!

service! I wish I could have bought every single dress I tried on. Rhiannon knew exactly what I was thinking before I even said a word... especially when my words weren't making very much sense haha. The whole Sentimentalist team made this experience comfortable and FUN! They helped me feel confident and beautiful and there was never any pressure in responding with my true feelings of a dress. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!

talist it was like the air cleared. The space is gorgeous, the people are friendly, and the experience is just top-notch. Everything you hope for when you think of the moment you buy your wedding dress. I love this place, please go.

ng out things that I never would've even noticed on the shelf by ended up being so truly perfect for me. And the salon is SO gorgeous!

y shocked at how different the appointments were. From start to finish The Sentamentalist, and Hannah in particular, made me feel so comfortable, understood and special. Hannah listened to everything I said and helped me choose dresses to try on that fit with my vision for my wedding day. I ended up choosing a dress that I would have never picked out without her help. Everything was done so professionally and carefully and I never felt pressured or rushed. My appointment at the other bridal boutique was terrible compared how I was treated at The Sentamentalist. They will walk you through every step of the process and answer all your questions and reassure you of any concerns. I honestly can’t imagine going anywhere else to choose a dress for your special day.

h you) and a private fitting room where one of the employees hands you a dress one at a time and then helps you zip it up. I really liked the amount of privacy here (in contrast to other boutiques where the employees get into the dressing room with you along with all the dresses you want to try on – crowded!). Rachel helped me and was so attentive, knowledgeable, and just all around nice. She helped me find my dream dress (and headpiece!). The price points are surprisingly affordable considering the level of service here. Definitely visit if you want a memorable dress shopping experience (and pretty pictures)!

as to let me come by twice to try on dresses. I even came back to look for accessories just because I wanted to support such a great team (I didn't end up finding my jewelry there -- but wish I did!). I definitely recommend stopping by The Sentimentalist - they have a wide variety of dresses for every type of bride and will make sure you feel comfortable every step of the way!

perience was fun, far from stressful, and memorable. I was made to feel comfortable and my likes and dislikes were closely listened to and taken into consideration. Love this place!!

to what I wanted and took time to understand the vibe I was after. They made recommendations of gowns to try, all the while letting me browse on my own without any pressure. Many stores I visited would either not quite understand my tastes or not provide enough time for me to browse. The Sentimentalist was a perfect mix of guidance and freedom, and all the staff members were so warm and kind. I wanted to just hang out there after I found my dress!

inding a dress that I LOVE. I would 100% recommend stopping in!

ce. I had 4 very opinionated women fly in for my big wedding dress shopping day so I was feeling some pressure to find "the one" and show everyone a good time. We all immediately fell in love with my stylist, Hannah, who listened to my vague list of likes/dislikes and pulled a gorgeous selection of gowns for me to try, and patiently styled each dress with various accessories at the request of my crowd. I did indeed find THE ONE but had another appointment to go to in the afternoon, so Hannah told me to call and come back later in the (booked) day. I felt absolutely no pressure to buy on the spot or make any quick decisions. My appointment at the other highly reviewed salon was totally lackluster after our fun morning at the Sentimentalist and I couldn't wait to go back and say yes to my dress! THANK YOU to the whole team for an unforgettable experience

pletely out of the equation. She was so great at moving quickly while also taking my feedback after each dress to eventually find my perfect dress! She came prepared to the appointment with information I’d previously filled out in the questionnaire and continued to ask great insightful questions to determine which dresses were going to be the best fit. She was able to explain why dresses I liked online wouldn’t provide me with what I wanted in a dress and she pulled dresses I wouldn’t have picked out myself but which ended up looking great on! She was also great at listening to my mom’s feedback while also focusing on me and making sure my thoughts were heard. Thank you Rhiannon for being so amazing! The shop itself is gorgeous. I could’ve stayed there all-day watching women try on beautiful wedding dresses. The décor is a perfect blend of vintage with some industrial touches. The area to try on dresses felt large and private and I was so comfortable. I can’t thank the team at The Sentimentalist enough for providing me with such an incredible experience of trying on wedding dresses. My first appointment and I found the dress – I still can’t believe it and I can’t wait to return when my dress arrives!

e perfect veil to match and set me up with an amazing seamstress that specialized in vintage gowns. I wasn't treated like I was 2nd rate just because I was shopping for a gown that was less expensive like other stores I'd been to. If you want an excellent experience GO HERE. They won't disappoint. Also, their shop is super cute. :)

t Rhiannon was FAB with them! She handled my weird taste as well as making sure my children and my mother were comfortable. She knew what I was looking for more than I did! The first dress was the one picked and I could not be more thrilled with my experience. Myself and my family were greeted and welcomed. Being an out of town bride we had to do most ordering over the phone and they made it so easy and worked with my schedule (1 year olds nap time). If you are able to make an appointment please do you will not be disappointed!!

trying to get in my head and figure out my vision for what I wanted from the moment she met me. She asked me questions about who I brought with me and what my vibe was for the wedding. I brought quite a large group of 7 and she wasn’t fazed at all. She was super chill and I was so comfortable. The atmosphere is unlike anything I’ve ever seen. My dress was even able to be customized with a different skirt since I wanted something a little more flowy and romantic. I drove from Prattville, Alabama based off of a friends recommendation and it was 100% worth it. Every bride should come here! Or at least check out their Instagram. It’s pretty awesome!

imentalist. There I was greeted by smiling faces whose first goal was to understand exactly what look I wanted. We then looked through the options together, and they were very helpful in choosing items that they felt would work. They always were very creative in combining different pieces in a way I would not have considered on my own. In the end, I had a beautiful, hand-crafted jumpsuit that perfectly fit my vision. Their dedication to following through with your bridal desires/wishes is to be admired, and I’d recommend them to anyone - those looking for more traditional options as well as those who have different bridal tastes.

ariety without overwhelming me with options, listened to my preferences, and gave honest (but sweet) feedback about what worked and what didn’t. It is the prettiest store I have ever been in, and I could not be happier with the experience, or with my dress. Thanks Sentimentalist!

uch direction, and within 20 minutes, we had already picked out 6 dresses that EASILY could have been "the dress"! With her guidance and questions, she helped me narrow down options and pick the dress that best suited me. Another important detail—Rhiannon really respected my budget and did not show me any options over my desired price range without my explicit permission. Small detail, but highly appreciated. I SUPER recommend the Sentimentalist!!!

Rhiannon felt like my fairy god sister and seriously made all of my dress dreams come true. Make this shop your first (and only) stop, trust me.

nd ENJOY THE PROCESS. And I found the dress I want to celebrate in all night. I can't thank this team enough.

hole Truvelle line but eventually was able to pick one :) After visiting a few other shops, I wasn’t sure if I would find what I was looking for, but the Sentimentalist had everything and more! Perfect for the bride that wants something that’s romantic and perfectly unique. I had friends that got their dresses there before me and now I send everyone that’s newly engaged there too! Just the best!

time I went in and enjoyed talking with every employee they had. I couldn’t give this place high enough stars!

t was the first dress I was excited about after an appointment elsewhere and even though we continued to try others to be thorough, it was so nice knowing I had my dream dress. Also, she fully pinned me into each dress so I could see exactly how it fits, versus the first place that just put a couple clips on. I wish I could go back and do it again!

that day. Gorgeous dresses that are high quality. Would highly recommend!

ssured or pushed. I originally went to the Sentimentalist with friends and found 3 dresses I love, with 1 being the front runner. While there, I made an appointment to come back with my mom a few weeks later. When I came back, they knew me, had my top dresses waiting for me, and were so kind. They also pointed me to the BEST alterations place ever - White Orchid. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

n AMAZING experience searching for my dress with the sweetest consultant, Hannah! She did not make me feel pressured about anything and listened to all my wishes and dislikes. She was able to find me the perfect dress that I never even knew I wanted! I can't thank her enough. Make an appointment at The Sentimentalist, you will not regret it!

olute DREAM!! Can’t recommend this place enough!!

to Rachel, she led us to the exact designers I had been eyeing ( I didn't even mention them). She was extremely knowledgeable about all of the fabrics that would look good on my body and would match my look! Our party was so impressed by her knowledge of the dresses and her helpfulness. We did not feel rushed or pressured! I was able to try on more dresses here than I had before at another salon because they were so efficient in the turn around between dresses. I had not had that experience at the other salon. After choosing the dress, everything was explained to us and the process was EXTREMELY easy! I cannot give enough praises to The Sentimentalist! I cannot wait to complete the look with accessories when the dress comes in!

ing. It was a blessing, and I wish they sold other things so I could go back all the time.

by the most wonderful ladies. The dresses they house aren't all frufru and sparkle but sexy and cool and they have many that hit the sweat spot of my budget. The Team at The Sentimentalist are amazing and their new shop is just breathtaking inside!

nd, patient, and fun! I had a blast and definitely recommend any bride comes here.

I wasn't sure I would fit the Sentimentalist "image" (if there even is one), since I figured their dresses would be more Bohemian than my style. I was also nervous since I'm a curvy bride - size 10 in regular and 14 in bridal even after losing 40 pounds. Making it even tougher, I came in pretty sure I was going to purchase a dress from a different boutique. I was able to be open with the stylist about my insecurities, and the "other dress." She was so very patient with my indecision, and didn't pressure me at all. I slowly and tearfully(happy tears!) realized the last dress I tried one --which she actually picked --- was perfect for me. And no, it isn't all bohemian in there! The dress I picked was very traditional. It was so fun playing dress up with their accessories once I knew which dress was mine. Sentimentalist also made sure I had all the details they DON'T handle in store sorted out -- they recommended a great seamstress, great dry-cleaner, and even the perfect underwear. I would recommend them to anyone/everyone.

nterests to narrow down the search! I would highly recommend them!

helped me every step of the way.

ir wedding dress!!

ress of your dreams. Rhiannon was amazing & I wish everyone could experience what I did in this cozy little boutique.

xactly my style. I really wanted something different than most dresses out there and told them NO lace and NO ballgown or "fit and flare" and they showed me so many amazing dresses that were so far from that look. I loved every single dress I tried on! Rhiannon took so much time with me and I never felt rushed. She really focused on finding something that I loved and felt beautiful in. I found my dress that first day and absolutely loved it. The dress came in so quickly and they were so accommodating when I came in to pick it up and search for accessories. I was so sad to leave because I just loved going in each time! It was such a warm, welcoming, and fun experience. I got so many compliments on my dress at the wedding and it was exactly what I wanted my dress to be. Thank you thank you for the best experiences!

he entire time. I also felt they really listened to my ideas and my concerns. They also didn't try to push certain silhouettes or designers on me. After a few dresses, Rachael and I decided to try on some Carol Hannah separates and 'create our own.' Let me tell you - the girls at The Sentimentalist are exceptional. I couldn't even dream up the dress that we came up with! And when I said I didn't want to wear a veil? Oh, out came the most beautiful wrap I have seen. I felt so confident and fun on my wedding day in my dress and I owe it all to them. If you're looking for something unique and spectacular you have to go see them!

list was the key factor in that!

away, we talked about my budget (which she was SUPER respectful of), style and desires. Turns out, I ended up choosing the very first one she pulled!! Rhiannon did everything she could to help us envision what it would look like on our wedding day--we added earrings, a veil and she did my hair the way I've talked about it being done. Incredible! She went above and beyond to make our experience comfortable and joyful, even remembering my whole party's names. I mean, come on. Thank you, Rhiannon and the whole Sentimentalist team!

had a last minute cancellation so my mother and I were able to visit the amazing/beautiful shop! I had no idea what type of dress I wanted, but they made me feel comfortable in everything I tried on and didn't pressure me into anything at all. I was only in town for a few days, and once I finally made a decision, and they were booked on a Sunday, they opened up early to get me in to try on the final few to decide before I flew home. I fell in love with my dress that Sunday and was able to marry my best friend feeling like the world in it - Thank you, thank you!

r she settled my family in she took me to another room where I was able to browse through all of their beautiful dresses, and she of course helped me, letting me see and feel different styles, explaining that different dresses could be customized and what not. I knew what dress was “the one” instantly but she still helped me re try on dresses as many times as I needed to make sure it was the one. I also got my veil and wedding accessories there! Absolutely stunning! Over all amazing place, recommend 10/10!

can not say enough great things about them. Rhiannon was amazing. She made everything light and fun and made sure I was taken care of. They have beautiful dresses as well!!

Rhiannon was just a joy to work with. She read my style immediately and we dove into so many unique dresses- the selection here is breathtaking! Color, vintage, separates - literally, they have it all. Including gorgeous, unique accessories! If you're a little less traditional, looking for something more fun or funky for your wedding, come straight here! I liked almost everything I put on and found my perfect dress during my appointment. Even afterwards, Rhiannon added little touches that made it even more uniquely mine. Such a beautiful and fun experience!

e right place. Rhiannon was a freaking rockstar. Not only did she listen to what I wanted but she pulled such unique options that I wouldn’t have thought of. I’m not the typical blushing bride but I had so much fun trying dresses on and showing my mom and sister. It only added to the experience that I ended up picking the first dress she had me try on. She wasn’t pushy about time or dresses and it was really clear that she genuinely wanted me to be happy in what I chose. She didn’t give me dresses that were over my budget and was really creative with options. If I could give her 6 stars I could, (Also, I emailed them to retry the dress on the next day just to make sure and they were able to fit me in.) Thanks guys for making this such a great experience!

election, only the bride and consultant go the area/room where the gowns are kept which lowered the pressure for me. The first choices were solely based on my opinion (I would have definitely looked to my mom to get her thoughts had she been in the room)...I think this is great because the consultant is able to get an honest perspective of how you want to look on your wedding day and guide you through dress selection. When it came to trying on the gowns and showing them to the consultant, my mom, and friend who also came along I felt so relaxed and calm. This was definitely a different experience compared to other boutiques where I felt a little rushed and overwhelmed. The consultant with me at the first appointment was Caitlin and she gave great supportive opinions about everything I tried on. She picked so many wonderful dresses for me that were right up my alley. I was able to pick and purchase a beautiful dress at my first appointment. Rhiannon was the other consultant I worked with when I returned several months later to pick up my dress. I also did an accessories try-on appointment with her...I ended up purchasing a veil, earrings, hair pins, and belt from them (they are such good saleswomen)! I felt so beautiful on my wedding day and would return to their shop if I had to do it over again. Additionally, I live about 2.5 hrs from the shop and have a demanding work schedule, but they made it so easy to schedule appointments. They are very responsive to emails and to phone calls. The women at this shop alleviated so much stress for me in regards to dress shopping...buy your wedding gown here!!!

ess (three separate pieces, three different designers!). I loved my dress and highly recommend the professionals at The Sentimentalist, they’re a great choice on your hunt for the perfect dress

h was incredibly helpful. I never once felt self conscious which is something I was expecting to feel in this process. Loved everything about the buying experience and can’t wait to see my dress when it comes in!

to detail, thoughtfulness towards my vision and patience with me as I tried on countless dresses was perfect! Also, I never felt sold to or rushed in making my decision. This is the most important thing to me. Purchasing a wedding dress means finding a piece of clothing that gives you all the feels, otherwise whats the point? Thanks for everything ladies!

pful and made me feel comfortable through the entire process. They have one of a kind pieces that you wont find anywhere else in Atlanta! Definitely recommend checking out this dress shop.

fferent designers. The only sad part about my wedding being over is that I have no reason to go here again. Also if you want to make your Instagram feed a little prettier, follow them! You will not be disappointed.

me shutter. My bridal assistant, Rhiannon, was fantastic and made me feel so welcome and comfortable. The ordering process for my dress over phone and email has been prompt and professional as I live out of state. The shop was also able to accommodate me with a fitting on short notice while on a last minute business trip. If you are looking for a unique dress and experience, this is the place for you!

ry helpful and everything ran perfectly smoothly. I appreciated their genuine interest in what I was looking for and their knowledge of their stock.

bohemian princess bride-to-be.

well being kind and darling as well! 2- The dresses! Oh my! They have a wonderful selection. I was worried because I am preppy and a lot of their dresses on social media seem more boho BUT they cater to every bride. Their selection is timeless but fun. It is different but classic. You can't go wrong in any of their dresses. 3- The location is amazing and you feel like you are in a fairytale. The pictures on the wall and the decor are perfect to create a space for you to be a bride and enjoy yourself. This is the place in Atlanta to find your wedding gown.

s - it was exactly the experience I had wanted. My group and I were greeted the moment we walked in and were shown to our own room, where we were offered refreshments and our sales associate, Rachael, began asking me about my style and vision. Their collection of dresses is so unique and expansive, I felt there were styles to cater to every type of bride. Rachael really listened to what I was picturing and helped me find the perfect dress - and even gave my hair a make-shift updo to make the look more complete! I genuinely had the best experience and would highly recommend The Sentimentalist to any bride who is looking for both an incredible dress & dress shopping experience!!!

asked for a better dress or wedding dress shopping experience. One of my best friends is getting married this year and I've already got a trip planned to go back to the Sentimentalist with her.

rwhelming). I went twice and got my dress, earrings, and veil from them. They helped me create the perfect look and I felt absolutely stunning. They even helped ship my dress to Hawaii. I wish I could go back to them again and again. I drove down from Knoxville, TN and it was SO WORTH IT! Do yourself a favor and go!

clear vision on what I'd end up with. I just hoped I'd end up with something unique and not incredibly heavy and stiff. The Sentimentalist was full of different designers that had a delicate, vintage-y look, and it was so much fun to try on these dresses in their little house that is artsy and full of character. I found both my belt and dress at the Sentimentalist and wish they had regular clothing vs just wedding attire, so I'd have a reason to go back!
