I don't write a lot of reviews so don't allow the shortness of this review to negate how awesome my experience was. I feel like the world should know!
First, the quality of my dr...
ess was insane. All my other recently married friends (except for the one who also got her dress there) agreed. You truly can tell the difference in the pictures. My dress did not crinkle or look stiff at any point throughout the whole day. Plus, it fit perfectly. Victoria spent all the time with me that I needed to ensure that I bought the right bra, selected the right jewelry and veil for the dress, etc. There is simply no way you would get this level of service at any other bridal shop.
This was truly a custom experience and the price was so close to what I would have paid anywhere else after alterations. I picked the pattern, fit, shade, etc. and Victoria sewed it all together to the shape of my body jut perfectly.
Victoria, thank you for all the time and effort you spent on creating the most beautiful custom wedding gown for me!
I found my dream dress at Victoria Sdoukos! Victoria is great, and she did a wonderful job helping me invision what I wanted!! So excited to wear it down the aisle!
I decided to get married with only 3 months to plan and when I found Victoria's boutique I felt that I had found my savior! Victoria made a beautiful custom wedding gown-a straple...
ss ivory lace over ivory. I really felt like a special bride while wearing it the day of my wedding. Every dress in this shop is a work of art. There were too many good choices. Victoria also made me several pieces of custom jewelry, which I will wear again on other occasions. I actually had two sashes made because I could not decide between them and want to wear them on other occasions. I love her designs so much that I am looking for another excuse to have a dress made by her. Victoria is patient and confident and an excellent seamstress. You will be in good hands, with someone who is a talented artist and designer.
The whole experience was just magical. Getting to work so closely with the designer to create your dream gown is just such an incredible experience. I felt like I truly was a coutu...
re bride. Victoria is a perfectionist and will ensure that your dress is nothing short of perfect. I know every bride gets a ton of compliments on her wedding day, but mine were so specific...from the material to the fit and all the little details...none went unnoticed! And, she does this all at such a reasonable price! I wouldn't go anywhere else!
I have to say, the only part of the wedding planning I actually enjoyed was the dress. Victoria made the process easy and fun, I felt like I was visiting my cousin every time I we...
nt for a fitting.
The dress was stunning, the experience was perfect! Go and enjoy!!!!
Victoria is the owner, designer and creator of everything in her store, which is amazing in itself. She has a penchant for adding bling, which a lot of women are into, and so when ...
I first walked into the store I admit I did not think it was going to be the place. Plus, since she custom makes each dress, I assumed this would be too expensive, but I tried it out and chatted with her anyway about what I envisioned. My hope was pretty simple, drop-waisted slim A-line, strapless with a very light sweetheart. I knew I liked lace, but all of these elements just were not coming together any of the places I had looked already. That first day in the store Victoria pulled fabrics and laces and clipped and zipped and pinned onto me what she envisioned making from what I had said, and added a beautiful champagne colored ribbon around the waist. The result was breath-taking and it was even better than I had imagined, even before she had actually made the dress. And she said she could do it for $2000, which was our budget. Amazing, amazing. Such a positive experience from there on out; she works with your schedule and is so much more flexible than other vendors would be since she does everything herself and therefore knows her timeline perfectly and can mentally work around all her other jobs to accommodate. HIghly recommend!
Victoria (the owner) is hand's on with everything. Victoria was able to create a piece of jewelry that will now be one of our family heirlooms. Even if you already have your dres...
s, you must stop in for the accessories.
My mom came to Chicago for the weekend to help me find a dress for my wedding next year. I had no idea what to expect, but I made appointments at almost every boutique in Chicago....
Most of the appointments were great, but every dress I liked at the other boutiques were missing something. Boutique Victoria was our last stop our second day of shopping. The minute I walked in I knew that I would like the dresses I tried on. Victoria has all her designs hanging up well displayed and almost everything had the sleek cut with unique extras I was looking for. I tried on a number of different dresses which were all beautiful and Victoria herself is there and does a great job showing how the dress can be styled with the amazing jewelry she makes herself or by changing the sash or beaded belt on many of the dresses. I ended up falling in love with aspects of two different dresses. I loved the cut of one, but the details and beading on the other. Victoria told me it would be possible to put the two aspects together when she created my dress and poof my dream dress was born! I am so excited to see the final product, Victoria has been so helpful and professional so far I look forward to working with her through this exciting process. I would highly recommend coming to boutique Victoria if you are looking for a glamorous dress with unique details. Victoria's bead work on the swarovski crystal belts are amazing and her jewlery, vails and hairpieces are gorgeous as well.
Victoria has a lot of experience which made this process seamless. She knew to wait to complete the alteration at the perfect time, and made all adjustments quickly and without an...
y anxiety. Plus, we used her jewelry which accented the dress more perfectly than any of the hundreds of other pieces we looked at. I loved working with her, she really took care of me and i would recommend her to anyone!
I was living in NYC when I got engaged and eventually moved to Chicago, so I went everywhere looking for my dress, including Kleinfeld. There were many dresses I liked, but not one...
I knew I wanted to wear. I found Boutique Victoria online and made an appointment. As soon as I walked in, Victoria herself introduced herself to me. She is the boutique owner, has some of her own designs sold at the store, and is the person who you will work with, all throughout your wedding dress purchase!
She was so pleasant to work with, she is so genuine in wanting to make sure you find a dress you will love and feel perfect in. Never once did I feel like she was being pushy or too opinionated. I really enjoyed my experience with her and did find my dream dress. In addition to selling her own designs (Victoria Sdoukos Couture) she also sells Jim Hjelm and some others. She was so accommodating when I wanted to bring my best friend and then come back with my mom before I finally purchased the dress. She talked me through how long it would be for my dress to come in and was very organized! When my dress finally came in she called me right away so I could come in and try it on!
The great thing about buying your dress at Boutique Victoria is that, since she designs and sews all her own dresses, when she alters your dress it is PERFECT! She really knows what she’s doing and has been doing this a long time! My final last great thing about Victoria is that, because she really knows her stuff, when I thought my dress (which fit perfectly at my last fitting) may be too tight for the wedding. She said that all brides lose, not gain, the week prior to their wedding due to stress, so if the dress fits perfectly it will not be too tight! I was really weary, but trusted her and she was 100% right! If I had to take it out, it would have been too big! I really appreciate her expertise!!! And again – she is SOOOO easy to talk to. Every time I called to ask a question or ask to come in try my earrings or shoes with the dress – she was more than willing to let me make an appointment and stop by. Appointments are necessary so that you are the only one in the store when she is working with you! It really makes a difference ladies!
I also purchased my veil from Victoria – and she made me on based on what I told her I had in mind! We used one of the veils she had and tried to play with the ends a little to make it a little more unique! Again, because she designs all her own veils and dresses – her special touch came in VERY handy!
I highly recommend Boutique Victoria!
