Thornbury Brides

ur dreams. I highly recommend getting your dress from Thornbury Brides!

service from the bridal shop in VA) and transport. I was given Thornbury Brides and Nell's contact info from our event planner in hopes she would do what so many others wouldn't do, help out with a dress that wasn't purchased from her. Nell was an angel! She immediately said she would help, made an appointment for me to bring it in on the day that was convenient for me, wouldn't charge me, and guided me through how to transport from New Bern to Emerald Isle and how to touchup the day of wedding. When I walked into her shop, I was impressed with the elegance and the selections (of course you can't stop in without looking a little)! With the kindness and expertise that she exhibited to me, I can't even imagine what a joy it would be to have her as part of your wedding team. This was daughter #2's wedding. Based on her dress experience as well as daughter #1's experience, I wouldn't run to Thornbury Brides to work with Nell if I was involved with another wedding. Thank you Nell!!

at day! I tried on a handful of dresses that were all lovely and Nell took what I described and the few photos I showed her for inspiration and she found exactly what I was looking for! Thank you!

professional and was able to make the changes to make my dress unique to me! Thank-you for everything Nell!

you Nell.

dress but did not have a "dream dress" or "dream style" in mind. Nell helped me pick out various styles to try on and knew exactly what would look best on me. This shop has a beautiful selection of dresses! It was such an easy decision to say yes to the dress! Not only did Nell help me find the perfect dress but she helped to make sure it remained perfect up until my wedding day. I love being a sassy Thornbury Bride :) If you are looking for the perfect dress, you absolutely must go see Nell at Thornbury Brides!!

of what I was looking for, too. Only one fitting room and she listened to what I had to say! Perfect because I am the bride. I had been elsewhere and they did not listen. I was able to try on gowns, assess them and make my decisions. Ultimately, I found my gown at Thornbury Brides!

e normally does not schedule fittings! Nell truly made me feel like such a princess! We even had some people stop in without an appointment and because Nell didn’t have anything lined up afterwards she helped the girls try on dresses!! I could sin praises about Thornbury Brides!! This has always been my dream bridal shop, and now I get to be a ThornBury Bride! I wish I could give you more stars Nell!! But just know you have truly made my day!

y daughter and I were pretty much shunned. I dare say this lady has lost more than she has earned. I don’t care how many glasses of wine you offer with your appointments if you don’t practice professionalism you’ll flop! It is a PRIVILEGE for any business owner when someone steps into your business not the other way around.

lity, kindness, and knowledge I have received from working with Thurnbury Brides and Nell.

m the moment I walked in I was treated so nicely and the place was so elegant and warming. Neil was friendly, professional and charming. She was honest and knew the bridal industry. Beautiful, unique and overall just a wonderful experience to say "yes to the dress." Thank you Thornbury for helping me find my special dress for my big day. What a wonderful store and owner.

y my gown. As soon as I entered the business I was interrogated about my purpose on being in the store. I informed the woman that I did not plan on getting married soon but would like to browse her selection. I was then asked to leave the store because her gowns are to expensive for what I'm probably looking for. I was dressed very nicely and regardless of my appearance no one knows how much a person has based on appearance. Again, I would not suggest this business to anyone. Stay clear and take your business elsewhere.

out each dress and made me feel so comfortable. I could sit and listen to her describe the dresses all day. The shop is absolutely perfect and New Bern is lucky to have her! After I found "THEE DRESS", she was even sweet enough to hop on the phone and describe the dress to my grandmother who would have loved to be there but wasn't able to make the trip. All the dresses are to die for in the shop and there are dresses for any style of bride. I can't wait to go back for my fitting!! A big thank you to my wonderful entourage who also added a special touch to the day - Hannah Roye Teresa Futrell Jenkins Lynn Davis Edwards Dana Edwards Boone and my mama!

the middle of the shop and Nell invited my daughter to try it on and then encouraged her to look at more, even though it was closing time (or after). So nice to be treated so well after 'bopping' in without an appointment. We are going back to see the new 2017 dresses before we decide!

t my daughter wanted. Nell made this shopping trip a pleasure instead of the typical "you will have to order immediately" to get a dress on time. I recommend anyone that needs a wedding dress to shop at this store.
