Positively disappointing experience from the moment we were greeted, given a discerning look when asking for the dresses we came to see in the first place and when litetally bicker...
ing with the attendant who’s lack of sales and product knowledge was all too evident. She wasn’t even helping my daughter step into the gowns.
The final straw was when my daughter burst out of the dressing room basically in tears and we left.
Thankfully we had a very positive experience the day before with another showing to where we knew how this should’ve gone.
This is not a store we will ever shop from again.
A neighborhood friend of mine recommended the Wedding Shoppe! I enjoyed my experience there, and felt the staff had my best interest when narrowing down a gown. If you buy your dre...
ss there, they have a seamstress who is assigned to you by the designer. It gave me comfort knowing my dress was being altered by someone who had worked with other Monique Lhuillier dresses. My dress consultant was Donna, and my seamstress was Zeeba-- they were friendly, helpful, and helped me feel like a real-life princess on my wedding day!
A truly special salon, The Wedding Shoppe's selection is simply in a different class from many of the other salons I visited. I went to 7 salons total, and this is where I found TH...
E dress. Pattie, the owner, knew her inventory and her past inventory inside out, and was able to advise me both about alterations limitations/advantages of different styles and the import/shipping expectations of each internationally-based designer. I was interested in one gown she had chosen to stop carrying due to alterations issues multiple brides had experienced - I referred to it only by style number, but she knew exactly which one I meant even though the style was from 16 seasons ago. Having read negative reviews earlier, my impression is this: Pattie is no-nonsense, extremely knowledgable, polite and helpful but won't overly coddle you. If you're a nervous bride, or haven't tried on any dresses at all before, her matter-of-fact style may is very different from the overwhelming cheerful bubbly flattery and "YES GIRL" attitude the wedding industry leads you to expect. If you need constant praise from your consultant, she's not your girl; if you want someone with an unparalleled knowledge of the business you should definitely come here, but you may wish to start somewhere else and work your way here if you need a confidence boost. On the other hand, you will never feel pressured or upsold, and there are no gimmicks here to urge you into buying; you'll feel completely confident in your decision if you find your dress here. The Wedding Shoppe is unique and fabulous.
I had worked previously with this wedding shop and returned by chance for my big day. The first day I was there, the owner, Patti, agreed to stay late since I stopped in on a whim...
. I actually tried my dress on that day but decided to return with my MOH and her mom and my mom 2 weeks later. Patti helped us find the perfect veil to compliment the dress. When my dress came in, there was some confusion and it was wrong but she professionally and quickly had it fixed for us and I had my dream dress. She was amazing to work with and her seamstress that comes to the shop was fantastic. She did an amazing job and I had no issues with my dress.
Found my dream dress here! They have a variety of options for different prices. Very easy to work with, too!
I found my dream dress at The Wedding Shoppe! Traci was so patient with me as I tried on various styles!! I am not the type of girl who has been planning their wedding in their hea...
d since they were young and I had no idea what I wanted. I was surprised how quickly we found THE ONE!!! I was a little nervous as I am full busted and many styles I see online for the modern day bride have no chest! She made me feel so comfortable and when I came in for my first fitting everything fit PERFECTLY!! Aside from Traci helping me the other ladies at the Wedding Shoppe and the owner Patty weighed in and helped me with the veil and accessories. It was so fun!! I felt like I was in a movie with everyone helping me!! Traci
also helped me pick out bridesmaid dresses for all 6 girls and made the ordering process very quick and easy for them! I highly recommend the Wedding Shoppe!!
I had visited several bridal salons in NYC and Philly before going to the Wedding Shoppe, and for me it was by far the best. Gorgeous selection, great variety and the staff was so ...
kind and knowledgeable. They don’t pressure you into a sale like some other shops. Really wonderful experience!
I recently went to the Wedding Shoppe and was helped by Andee. She was VERY helpful and let me try on several dresses. She worked with my to figure out my style, and then gave sugg...
estions which I ended up loving. I never felt rushed, and felt as though my experience was very personalized. I brought many people with me, and they were welcomed as well! I would highly recommend this store.
LOVE The Wedding Shoppe! Where do I begin! I had the best experience dress shopping with my girls and my mom. The woman that helped me made so feel very comfortable and really list...
en to me when it came to what I was looking for. I bought my dress at the older location which was great but the new location is HUGE and very gorgeous inside. I also did my alterations there and Christina was a pleasure working with. She was super accommodating and allowed me to have as many visits I needed until I felt 100 % happy with how the dress fit. I highly recommend The Wedding Shoppe! 👍
If you are looking for a pleasant bridal experience, take your business elsewhere! These kind of moments should be fun for you, family and friends, and this place made us feel the ...
complete opposite of that. We were there are Saturday 1/20 and were very rushed (we were there for maybe 30 minutes when we had an hour scheduled) and it was made very clear by the woman "helping" us that she'd rather be doing anything else. I could not believe the amount of rudeness and flat our disrespect she showed to us. I didn't catch her name (because she didn't introduce herself) but she was older and had short blonde hair. I didn't care if we had found the world's best dress, there was ZERO chance I was giving money to a business that conducts themselves in this manner and treats their customers poor at best. Again, if you're looking for, what should be, a fun and exciting day with your family and friends dress shopping, stay away from this place!
I️ made an appointment for this shop over the phone. I️ told them my budget and there were no issues until I showed up for the appointment. The consultant who “greeted” us was snob...
by and less than enthusiastic. Then she told us there were no dresses in my price range with a bit of attitude. I️ should’ve read the reviews before wasting my time on this place.
I live in San Diego and recently got married in Philly! I was in town for some wedding tasks and went to The Wedding Shoppe to look at a specific designer they carried.
They have...
such a beautiful selection! I went in saying "no strapless, no fitted, this specific designer". Needless to say, I almost left with a strapless fitted dress, lol! The women that helped me were so great. I can only imagine how hard their job is! Especially because I really thought I knew what I wanted. The part I did not take into consideration was the fact that the model was 6 ft. tall and I am 5 ft tall. My dream dress looked ridiculous on me. Thankfully the women really know what looks best on a shorty like me :)
I had it narrowed down to 2 dresses, (both fitted ha). When I came back to try them on again the owner Pattie helped me. She was so patient with me as I tried on each dress about 8 times before I made my final decision! I couldn't have been happier either. My dress was stunning!
All of the dresses I tried on here were such high quality. It truly makes a difference in the way they fit and look. Mine was so comfortable and I was able to move and dance the night away!
I would recommend The Wedding Shoppe to any brides, bridesmaids, MOB/MOG! They have a downstairs filled with a huge selection of beautiful bridesmaids and MOB/MOG dresses.
We went here to find a dress for my maid of honor. The woman helping us (don't remember name) was less than enthusiastic. She was in a bit of a stink. We ended up finding a dress w...
e loved but she explained that it didn't come in the color I wanted and so I was going to have to pick another color, I was a little bummed but loved the dress so thought I would do this. We asked the woman to take my MOH's measurements so we could call in to order the dress and she just replied by saying "I can't give them to you" ... we didn't want them ourselves, we wanted them on record so we could call and order the dress!! She was just totally weird and not a great experience. On top of this, we had our next appointment at Elizabeth Johns and NOT ONLY did we find the same dress but they had it in the EXACT color I wanted!!! So strange that this place told me it didn't come in the color. Anyway, I would stay away if you want a GOOD experience, because we certainly did not.
I worked with Pattie at The Wedding Shoppe and she helped me find my perfect wedding dress. She worked fast pulling dresses of different styles and listened to my likes and dislike...
s. In doing so, we finally got to the one. It had all of the elements I was looking for, plus more. It wasn’t until I worked with Aida, the seamstress provided by the shop, that it truly became MY dress. Aida was absolutely amazing with her talent! I was having issues with the fabric irritating my very sensitive skin and she was able to adjust the neckline so that it sat just right without making me red and blotchy. Overall, I was very happy with the service at The Wedding Shoppe and beyond happy with Aida.
Rude and snobby... I called to inquire what seamstress they use for their gowns, and after being asked "what do you mean?", I was told that they cannot tell me unless I am a paying...
customer. Word for word, I was told "we don't do that here"... I'm baffled as to why you cannot disclose this to the community. Completely rude, unwilling to help, and just lost a potential customer.
Went to the Wedding Shoppe this past weekend. It was my first time dress shopping, and you know how they say that first impressions mean everything?! This boutique is beautiful an...
d sweet, and has the nicest and most welcoming people who work there. I worked with Marie and she was just fantastic. I cannot sing her enough praises! With four daughters and 30 years of experience, she knows a thing or two about dress shopping! She listened to what I had in mind, and found really beautiful and unique couture dresses for me. I felt like a model and so Hollywood glam the entire time! The space allows for privacy and has a beautiful selection. Each piece is selected by the owner and you can tell that nearly every dress has its own story (which, as a bride, is important to me.) For example, one of the most beautiful dresses I tried on was from a small town in Italy, where two sisters create each design with the utmost detail, and they don't sell their pieces in the US, so Patty has to go and bring them to her boutique for us brides to try! Love it. The veil selection is lovely and it was such a joy, trying on different styles. Marie was sweet, honest and didn't try to pressure me to make any big decisions on the spot. The last thing you want is to go somewhere and feel that way! I highly recommend this as a place for brides to check out when dress shopping. I now live in Florida and the trip here was totally worthwhile.
My daughter, who was married on October 8, thought she knew what she wanted in a wedding gown and tried on several such gowns. However, Marie, who was our consultant, suggested my...
daughter try on a gown they had just gotten in the shop that she thought would look good on her. I will never forget the look on my daughter's face when she realized the gown Marie chose was "the one." If not for Marie's experience and professionalism, my daughter may have settled for a lesser gown. When Marie chose a veil she thought would complement the gown, the decision was made! The gown was ordered and came in before schedule. Each time my daughter tried the gown on, she fell more in love with it, and the staff was equally as excited as she. Cyndi was the seamstress, and she was amazing. She was also very willing to accommodate my daughter with her fittings, as my daughter lives out of town. My daughter ended up with a timeless, classic, elegant wedding dress that fit into her budget.
Awful. The appointment lasted 25 minutes. I am a size 8-10 and felt like I was going to rip each dress even after the consultant told me to shimmy into them. Consultant was pushy ...
and did not listen to anything that I wanted. She made it a point to tell us how budget conscious the shop was and then the first 3 dresses were over budget (the rest could have been also. I stopped checking. We had to look ourselves at the tag - she did not offer up the information as promised. Once we did ask her how much it was and after looking at the price, she said that the price shouldn't matter and we should worry about what looked good on). I had previously been dress shopping and didn't want a fitted dress below the waist. She kept pulling dresses that were fitted and that I did not like, and she insisted that I try them. The few that I did like, the consultant seemed very surprised that they looked good. She commented that one of the dresses I had on complemented my "pink skin" and kept interrupting the conversations between myself and my guests at the appointment. She pricked me with the dress clips and didn't apologize. She was rushing us through the appointment, running away from me back to the fitting room. As we were leaving, the other consultants were talking badly about the appearance a bride that did not show up to her appointment. Would not recommend.
I had so many problems, it was awful. The fit me incorrectly and my dress came in far too small. They then refused to return it and the accessories I bought to go with it. They als...
o fit MULTIPLE bridesmaids incorrectly as well. I will never recommend them to anyone.
Went to look for bridesmaid dresses with girls who are all different shapes and sizes so we were just looking for something similar. The consultant who helped us was nice, but her...
own hair and clothes were nothing short of bizarre. And when my size 14 body wouldn't fit into any of the size 8 or 10 dresses they had, she suggested I just put the smaller dress on and hold the top up. She didn't seem to understand the idea that it was too small. And no mention was made of larger sizes being available anywhere in the store. We also shopped around and found that not only was their selection not up to par if you're more than a size 8, they were very pricey compared to other shops in the area.
I went to the Wedding Shoppe to find my wedding dress because they had the designer I wanted: Jenny Packham. I found the dress I've been dreaming of here. I decided to get my dress...
altered here too because the dress was very delicate and I wanted my seamstress to be comfortable/familiar with my dress' designer. It did take my dress almost a year to come in - but this was the designer being in London and not the salon's fault, so make sure you have enough time before your wedding to order. The only feedback I would give to The Wedding Shoppe is that sometimes the service I received via phone or at the reception area was rude. I understand there are times when the consultants are with appointments but they really should have a dedicated receptionist or cashier. Often times when I would call to check in on my order (due to the fact that it took almost a year to come in) and the person answering the phone would be rude to me which was pretty unsettling to me as I was spending a significant amount of money purchasing my wedding dress there.
I went into The Wedding Shoppe on two separate occasions - first to try on bridal gowns and bridesmaids dresses and a second time to try on a brand of bridal shoes that was difficu...
lt to find and nickel-free earrings. While my experience trying on bridal gowns was okay, it was nothing to write home about. First, the store switched consultants on me within the first few minutes of my appointment, setting things off to an odd start. Second, I didn't like that I wasn't able to take any photos of dresses - I found a dress I loved, but not being able to take a photo actually made me not buy it. I couldn't remember what it actually looked like on me! Third, the consultant, while helpful, seemed to more be going through the motions than anything else. My second visit was even worse. I didn't have an appointment - I only went into to try on shoes and look for earrings. The receptionist "helped" me, but it really wasn't helpful. Let's start with the shoes. The receptionist actually gave me complete misinformation about the shoe brand I was looking for. I left empty handed, only to go to another bridal store in the area that carries the same shoe brand to find a pair that worked perfectly for me. Moving on the earrings, I'll start by saying I have a terrible nickel allergy. I cannot wear any jewelry with nickel at all and clearly stated this. After finding out that none of the jewelry the store carried was nickel-free, the woman actually said, "why don't you just coat the posts with nail polish?" While I'll give it to her that she was attempting to find a solution, I find it a bit insulting that she was proposing I buy $300+ earrings only to coat them with nail polish for a quick fix. If I were you, unless this is the only store that carries a designer you're looking for, I'd recommend looking elsewhere. You can find much better service and nicer looking stores.
I was overall very happy with The Wedding Shoppe. They have a big selection of beautiful dresses, but most are on the high end, so just have that in mind when you shop there. The l...
evel of service you receive is generally very good, but depends a little on which sales consultant you have. I was lucky to work with Tracey for most of the process, and she was absolutely wonderful. She was patient and low key but also decisive and was willing to share her opinion, which I really appreciated. I went to several other stores during the dress search and really did not like working with consultants who just stood there passively. My bridesmaids ended ip purchasing their dresses at stores closer to where they lived, both because of convenience and also because they found better prices. I bought my veil and belt at The Wedding Shoppe, but be prepared to spend. Their stuff is beautiful but not cheap. Their shoe selection was a bit small and they don't have many flats, so I ended up purchasing my shoes online. Overall, a great experience and I would highly recommend them.
The Wedding Shoppe was wonderful from the moment we arrived. We worked with Donna who had fabulous ideas!! My dress arrived in the allotted time and in perfect condition. Payment w...
as easy! And the seamstress they recommended (Cindy) was amazing!
I had a GREAT experience at the Wedding Shoppe… Andee is Fantastic! She is truly a stylist and knew exactly what wedding dress I needed to try on!
My sister came with me to the...
trunk show. We made an appointment and I brought a bunch of pictures with me from pinterest/cut-outs from bridal magazines of the type of dress I wanted. I showed Andee the pictures and she said without hesitation, “You need to try this one on.” That was the first dress I tried on, and was also the one I ended up purchasing later that morning. It was such a good pick from Andee…it brought tears to my sister’s eyes, not once, but twice when I had it on. I tried on a few other dresses after the “first” dress – they didn’t have the same impact on my sister. ;) I greatly thank Andee for making the dress picking so seamless… I didn’t have to look any further! After I brought the dress, Andee continued to follow-up with me, made sure my bridesmaids had what they needed, helped both my sister and I with the shoes, and made sure we had everything we needed delivered in a timely manner. As Andee put it, "You will not find a better dress... The dress is not wearing you, and you are not out wearing that dress." Andee is quite the matchmaker!
Cyndi, the Wedding Shoppe’s Seamstress, is also Fantastic! Cyndi has excellent attention to detail. I had numerous fittings (my dress was very detailed) and Cyndi really knew what had to be done so the dress fit like a glove. She did an amazing bustle on my dress (even had matching pearls/ribbons for each tie), and pressed my dress/veils perfectly before the big day. She is one of the sweetest people I have ever met, and really made sure everything was Perfect! I also had Cyndi work on my rehearsal dinner dress and my sister’s bridesmaid dress.
Overall, I really, couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Both ladies are professionals in their areas of expertise.
I found my dress here at The Wedding Shoppe. While the lady who helped me find my dress was the nicest lady and fantastic, there were a couple of other employees that were not hel...

iked the more intimate feel of this shop. Everyone who works there is helpful and friendly. No complaints here!
I just have to express how much we are so grateful to have found you guys for my wedding dress! I came in looking for this one dress in perticular (my dream dress) and I found it d...
uring a trunk show! When I showed my mother and my sister the dress, when they came with me, they fell in love with it as much as I did! You have no idea the compliments I have gotten and still get to this day about my dress, veil and shoes! You guys did such a great job helping me out and our seamstress Cydni Kuhn was an absolute doll! She did such a fabulous job in making the dress mine and fitting me so well! She was helpful, funny, and easy to work with the entire time! And she was understanding of me when I told her I was losing weight and she worked with me on that. she was the best!! Thank you so much, Cyndi!! :)
I have been told that I looked like a princess and an angel on our big day and I have to say I felt like an absolute princess on my wedding day! Thank you so much for all your help and for being such sweet people! :) It was an absolute pleasure to work with you girls and I plan to suggest your shop to everyone!!!! ♥
When we arrived, the young lady working in the
front was really nice, showed us the dresses, and told us Donna was
running a little behind and she would be with us shortly. She g...
ave us
a general overview of the dresses and told us to pick out what we
liked.
When Donna arrived, she was flustered and a little rushed. She wasn't
very helpful in getting the girls dressed or clipped in as needed. She
disappeared a little and I ended up helping them get clipped into
dresses. She was in and out of the space when it came time to look at
fabric swatches and whatnot. About halfway through, another party
arrived to get measured and Donna forgot about us - even asking if she
could use a dressing room we were using. It wasn't until I spoke up
saying we wanted to purchase a dress that she returned to us.
After being measured, Donna took us upstairs in the front area and
began to set up the ordering. She was very loud in proclaiming that my
one bridesmaid was a "perfect size two". My other bridesmaid is a
little bit bigger and Donna was just as brash talking about what size
she should wear -- even bringing in another consultant to re-measure
her right in the front with other parties in the area. The other
consultant was very nice and very polite to us, I would like to
mention. We were all a bit uncomfortable with the way Donna was
talking about sizes and what size she is/should get.
I used The Wedding Shoppe for my bridesmaid dresses, but not my wedding gown. I went to the shop a total of 6 or 7 times, as I went with each girl individually. The ladies were r...
ude every time I went. They were not helpful, and acted as though they were better than the customers. They were basically incompetent. So many things happened that I can't even list them all. I will leave it at this - they didn't call me when three of the dresses came in, spent an hour looking for one that was hanging in plain sight, and I wasted an hour and a half of my life picking up one dress because they are just that disorganized. Do not go here.
I was so blessed to work with Marie and Pattie at the Wedding Shoppe in Wayne. It was so relaxing! I was nervous, since I had never tried wedding dresses on. They made me feel rig...
ht at home, and were happy to work in my budget. The fittings were easy and my bridesmaids got their dresses their too, with a discount!

s for my fitting and to help me pick my jewelry and find my veil. The seamstress they use is amazing and super helpful. The customer service was incredible and I enjoyed each and every visit. Just know when you make the appointment, unless the dress is on sale, they don't have a huge variety of prices below $4,000.
Purchasing a dress here was a pleasure. Plenty of styles to choose from. Helpful sales staff.
great to pick up any last minute things you may have forgotten. wide selection of bridal goodies!

I had a wonderful experience at the Wedding shoppe. Marie is a fantastic consultant, she listenedd to me and made sure that I "loved" my dress. The shoppe is on the expensive side,...
so be ready to spend money for the designer names.
I loved this place. It was very personal, my salesperson Abby was adorable, and the seamstress was a doll! Abby went out of her way to order a dress that I found somewhere else, ...
and it was ordered with not much time to spare. The seamstress (I forget her name!) also did everything I asked and even helped me fix a bolero I purchased somewhere else. You pay maybe a teenie bit more money here (of course they have much more expensive dresses than what I purchased) but it is so worth the experience. I am very glad that I didn't go to a chain store, this was much more personal. Definitely recommended!!!
I visited quite a few bridal shops to really find the one that I felt was the best of the best. Without naming the others, I can tell you that living in Northern NJ and knowing whi...
ch ones area all around me, I still picked one near Philadelphia. Marie and Patty at The Wedding Shoppe are so accomodating and wil do anything to be sure to make your experience as easy and painless as possible. Finding my gown was easy, one of the best experiences I've had. Thank you to The Wedding Shoppe!!

mother's expectations! I never felt rushed. The day was just perfect. Once I bought the dress, it truly was the seamstress that made this vendor recieve a 5. She is beyond fantastic. She made it possible for me to take off the bottom portion of my dress after the wedding! You could not see any seams or adjustments that were made. The dress fit me like a glove and at no point did I need to adjust it during the reception (strapless can be tricky!)!!!
What an experience! Tracy was wonderful and very personable, and I was able to meet the designer of my dress (Judd Waddell trunkshow) - he even made a sketch for me! Karen, their...

ght in the dress that I wound up buying I probably never would have picked it. They have a great way of making you feel special and give you a very personal experience. I have said this with most of my vendors, but my sister also got her dress here. The wedding shoppe will not disappoint and all it takes is one trip to find the perfect dress
I went to a number of bridal stores and The Wedding Shoppe was by far the best. They were very professional, made great suggestions, and worked very well within my budget. They hav...
e a few seamstresses that work with the shop. I used Karen and she was a miracle worker! She took a sample dress that was 4 sizes too big and made it fit me like a glove without sacrificing the integrity of the dress and style.
Made an appt., but really didn't need one since I was in the store for about 20 minutes. I told the lady (who seemed rather busy and annoyed I was there) that my price range is 2,5...
00-3000. I really didn't think that was petty, its a dress, not a car. Well, needless to say, unless I was willing to spend around 6K for a gown that doesn't look like it's worth that much, I shouldn't have been bothered with. They have a minimal selection of designer dresses only, and maybe about 5 under 3K. The consultant was quick and bothered, and I was ready to get out of there. Not to mention the store smelled musty and like a grandmothers attic. Definitely would NOT recommend this place to a bride-to-be.
I was a little wary of this place because they had been stuck-up before when I went with a friend that was getting married in the past, but I had a great experience. They won't le...
t you take pictures before you buy anything, but after you do they are very nice. They have seamstresses do the alterations there and they are very accommodating. I bought a sample dress so they paid to get it cleaned, and held on to it for a year until the day before my wedding!
I was nervous about looking for a dress with my mom--wasn't feeling like a traditional bride, we've always disagreed on what looks good, etc. We went to the Wedding Shoppe as a "s...
couting mission" because it was around the corner from my fiance (now husband's) house. Patty took us without an appointment, really listened to what I wanted and what made me feel comfortable. I tried on a bunch of wonderful gowns, but fell in love with a dress that was incredibly outside of my price range. I thought about it for a few days, and went back with my mother-in-law to get her opinion on a few more reasonable options. We tried the dream dress on again and all loved it, so Patty said she'd sell us the sample at a discount. It was perfect! The rest of the service--getting ring bearer's ties, setting us up with a seamstress--was really great!
I called The Wedding Shoppe on a fluke to see if they were open on a Wednesday evening because my Mom was in town. It was my first "true" shopping (I had browsed the previous week...
end). They were very accommodating and Marie was a doll to work with. By the end of the night, I had found my dress. I never regretted not looking elsewhere. But the hidden value was the seamstress who worked there. Cindy is AMAZING! She's a little quirky, but her work is fantastic. I am so glad that I got to work with her because my dream dress then fit like a dream. She also then altered my sister's bridesmaids dress and my mother's dress because they came to my fittings as well. If you find a dress there, ask for Cindy for alterations!
