I’ve been to many bridal salons to shop with friends over the years and was nervous when I started my wedding planning journey. Village Bridal was the first place I visited and was not disappointed. Everyone was so incredibly friendly and helpful! They understood my vision and helped me find the perfect dress in just one visit. I would 1000% recommend them if you’re looking for your gown!
From the moment I stepped into this salon I knew it would be the best experience. Daniella helped me find my dress, in fact it was the first one I tried on but I kept going back to it. They were patient, kind, friendly, and so helpful. I cannot thank this team enough. I got SO many compliments.
Village Bridal is so extremely helpful and was the perfect place to buy my wedding dress. Other places I went were not helpful and did not take the time to really pull dresses that would flatter my body. Lisa is extremely experienced and helped me pick my dream dress. I had an idea of what I wanted, but Lisa helped me go out of my comfort zone and try on what would be my wedding dress. I felt extremely comfortable and would not have bought my wedding dress anywhere else. I brought my mother, mother in law, grandmother here not only for my wedding, but other weddings as well. We are all repeat customers and would not have it any other way. Thank you the entire Village Bridal staff, especially Lisa, for showing me the wedding dress of my dreams!
Village Bridal is the BEST! The first time I went in to look at wedding dresses for the first time with my mother and maid of honor, they made me feel so special! We were helped by Julita, and she was so excited to help me find the dress of my dreams! I explained to her what I was looking for and showed her some inspirational photos on my phone. Together we looked through numerous options and she was happy to pull multiple gowns for me to try on and never made me feel rushed. I was even able to try on some favorites a second time. At the end of the appointment, I decided I wanted to sleep on my decision for a little bit. When I went back a couple of weeks later, I met with Vicki. She pulled out some of my favorites from the previous appointment and also allowed me to try on a few others. After trying on the first dress from the first appointment again, I ended up saying "Yes to the Dress!" They truly made the experience so special. I eventually selected my veil, earrings and shawl (winter wedding) from them as well. They were excellent with my alterations and were very communicative along the way. I would recommend this bridal shop to anyone looking for their dream dress! Thank you Village Bridal, for making me feel so beautiful on my wedding day!
One word for Village Bridal: Incredible!
My sister, mom and I went in July of 2021 to get a feel for dresses. I worked with Julita who is a sweetheart and really worked with getting my vision down pat, while staying in my budget. I ended up finding my dress there (Allure) and it was the best decision I could’ve made!
Their alterations department is stellar. Effie is a true professional who does amazing work and listens to your concerns. My dress fit like a dream and I wish it was acceptable to wear it to family bbqs or birthday parties because it deserves to be seen again!
Their staff is filled with kind and friendly people who will answer any question you have. When I had something come up at work on the day of my first fitting, they worked with me to find another time that would fit my timeframe and schedule. I never felt annoying calling them multiple times about rescheduling for my fitting because they totally understood why a certain time was important to me.
Pick up was easy and the woman behind the desk (I didn’t get her name, I’m sorry) was filled with such positive energy it was contagious. I was a bundle of nerves two days out, wondering what I was forgetting to do, but she helped to hype me up.
I recommend any bride looking to find their perfect dress goes to Village Bridal. You are in phenomenal hands!
I had the best experience at Village Bridal! Sabrina was the best and really understood what I was looking for with minimal guidance from me. I was hesitant about saying yes because I had an appointment at another shop later that would charge me a cancellation fee. When I told them, the owner said to credit that amount toward my dress! I can’t recommend them enough!
I’m honestly shocked that this place has such a low star rating. Please do not let that stop you!! We worked with Lisa this past weekend and she was beyond amazing. I had been to other places before and I was genuinely just going to look. We’ve “loved” dresses at other salons, taken pictures and then been like eh after looking at them more and more. Lisa made the whole experience so memorable for us, we ended up saying yes right there! We were all so surprised that my mom who was paying for the dress didn’t even bring her credit card lol. What I also appreciated was that Lisa took my measurements and I was in between sizes she didn’t pressure me to order up, or automatically order two sizes larger like another salon told me they did. She was upfront about what it would cost to be altered and overall just a happy, pleasant experience.
I had gone to Village Bridal with another bride before I was even engaged and I knew I wanted to come back to this shop! I had seen a dress and they went through every rack to try and find that dress for me, and they did! While I ended up going with another dress, the sales team was incredibly understanding and supportive. She brought in several different types of dresses to narrow down what style I wanted and once we had that down, she brought in dress after dress. Not only did I LOVE my dress, but she found one that was actually way under my budget! I was never pushed to go above my budget, which I loved, because I had been to other shops where that’s all they did. I had my alterations done here as well, and while I thought they were a little pricey, it was a pandemic and I knew their shop was clean. Overall I highly recommend this bridal shop!
I went into Village Bridal this past weekend to look for a specific dress I found online. I tried it on, along with a few others to make sure it was really the one for me, and the staff was so kind and patient while I took my time deciding! Yulita and the rest of the staff made it such a fun experience for me and I'm thrilled to say I said yes to the dress! I'm so happy I get to go through the rest of the dress process with them! Thank you for making it such a great day for me!
So helpful and sweet with a beautiful selection! Lisa and Daniella literally saved the day with a last minute purchase and I’m so happy with my beautiful dress. Kind, understanding people running the shop!
Village bridal was a pleasure to work with. They were very accommodating throughout the entire process. My dress was a Sophia Tolli that I absolutely loved. Effie did my alterations and did a phenomenal job. Highly recommend Village Bridal and of course Effie for alterations!
Village bridal was a pleasure to work with! I had 11 bridesmaids that were from all over the country! I wasn’t able to get all 11 on the same day for fittings. The staff at village bridal made it so easy for all of my girls to come in on their own time without me present. They had all of my instructions in my file which made each girls visit so much easier for them. A few even had their fittings done with instructions from the staff over the phone. My dresses came in in less than 4 months and each one was perfect! I cannot thank the staff at Village bridal enough for all of their hard work! I highly recommend this bridal shop!
I went to Village Bridal because my sister in law got her wedding dress there, and I got my bridesmaids dress there for her wedding - things went perfectly fine so I wanted to go for myself! Vickie helped me pick out the most amazing gown that I fell in love with, and it was in my budget. They have a wide selection and every gown I saw was absolutely stunning. It was hard to schedule fittings because they are so booked (good for them!) - which was the only tough part! I loved working with them and the shop is beautiful. I got sooo many compliments on my Mon Cheri gown. I want to wear it again!!
They had such a large selction to choose from! (They also have a great selection of bridesmaids and MOB/MOG dresses!) They were super helpful with information on each dress, designer, and similar styles.
Hands down the best bridal salon. I went to a few prior with my bridesmaids and myself but village bridal exceeded our expectations. They were helpful, supportive and made us so welcomed. From the beginning process all the way through alterations to the end it was so easy. Everyone’s dresses came out completely flawless and everyone we worked with was more than amazing. They made me feel beautiful every time I tried on my dress.
10/10 Over the course of my engagement I read so many mixed reviews on Village Bridal, but I had a perfect experience with them. I went to two shops before and wasn’t having that moment. I wasn’t even looking for that type of dress that I bought! They highly recommended coming back to shop for my veil at a later date and I was so happy I listened to them! We did have to wait a bit during veil shopping for them to find my dress, but they made up for it with a 15% discount off the veil! I was so happy I didn’t buy it the same day since I was originally going for fingertip, but changed my mind to cathedral! I went back with my bridesmaids and found their dress there as well! They let me try on the sample dress again to show my girls my dress! I came back at a later date with my other sister who lives out of the country, and they were so accommodating. All alterations were done at Village Bridal by Effie except my sister who lives out of the country. They were so accommodating and everyone’s dresses fit perfectly. At my final fitting, I had an issue with the boning popping out around my bust from having it taken in. They had me wait in the waiting room with a robe while they fixed it. It came out absolutely perfect!
Village Bridal Boutique was amazing. Every single person I encountered was incredibly accommodating. They even let me and an out of town bridesmaid "visit" the dress so she could see it in person without an appointment. I love that you're able to go around and look on your own or with the help of an attendant. I tried on 4 dresses here, I told the woman I was looking for something "beachy" and she comes back with THE dress. It was a great experience every time I walked through their doors.
Village Bridal was excellent. They have a huge selection. Carol helped me when I found and purchased my dress. Theresa the dressmaker was amazing with alterations. I highly recommend!
I had a wonderful experience- I had the place to myself. No pressure, I bought my first dress. Everyone was super helpful and encouraging- I recommend Village Bridal to everyone I meet.
I worked with Carol and she was outstanding! I loved that she did not put any pressure on me to buy a dress before I was ready. I went in without any real idea as to what I wanted and she showed me some really beautiful dresses. In the end, I actually ended up buying the first dressed I tried on!
I ordered the dress at the end of July and it came in by Thanksgiving, which was much faster than I ever thought!
I had 3 fitting appointments and each one was smooth and fun! The entire experience was one I thoroughly enjoyed and that is because Village Bridal truly goes out of their way to make you feel comfortable.
Thank you Carol and the entire staff for helping me find my dream wedding dress! I can not tell you how many compliments I received on it the day of our wedding!
Let me start by saying that I did not buy my dress at Village Bridal, I bought it at New York Bridal but New York Bridal merged with Village Bridal shortly after I bought my dress, so I had all of my fittings at Village Bridal. I was SO happy that they merged because Village Bridal was incredible. New York Bridal ordered my dress in the wrong size so I was upset and really nervous when I tried the dress on for the first time because I was absolutely swimming in it. Christina and the seamstress were just amazing though. After three fittings, my dream dress fit me so perfectly. I really can't thank the seamstress enough for the incredible job she did. My bustle was perfection as well! I honestly wish I could wear my dress every day because that's how much I loved it. Thank you so much, Village Bridal!
They have tons of dresses!! My consultant Carol really saw my vision and picked out great dresses!
We got my moms dress here when it was NY Bridal in Farmingdale. We worked with Vicky from the start and when they moved over to Village Bridal we were always happy to see her smiling face when we walked in. She always remembered my mom by name since day one. When we started working with Christina and Carol for fittings they were just as sweet. Thanks for helping us find the perfect dress for my mom!
Village Bridal and Boutique was a positive experience all around. I had excellent service while at my bridal appointment with Krissy and ended up purchasing the perfect dress for me! We were also interested in bridesmaid dresses from Village Bridal, but were hesitant on the prices. Because we had brought prices from another salon that was more competitive (for both my dress and the bridesmaid dresses), Krissy did everything she could to give me the best prices possible, even giving me credit toward my veil as compensation. My mom was so pleased with the service she decided to come and get her dress here as well.
Two of my sisters needed their dresses shipped to them and the office was able to help us with that as well.
Theresa, the tailor has had about 30 years of experience and it was definitely helpful. My dress fit like a glove, and another dress was taken out, but still looked phenomenal. The times available for alterations were difficult, which required me to take some time off of work to make it.
Overall, very positive experience! Everyone looked great in their dresses, and so happy that the salon could work with us on their pricing.
All of the ladies at Village bridal were a pleasure to work with. From the first time going in there to try on dresses, through the whole fitting process they were all so helpful. The dresses there were beautiful. One nicer then another. They made the whole dress process a great experience. And only I truly was I in love with my dress.
I went to Village Bridal and Boutique after also going to Bridal Reflections in Massapequa, NY. I loved how at Village Bridal I was able to actually go through the dresses to pick things out that I liked rather than only the salesperson being able to select dresses for me (like Bridal Reflections). Along with my mom, sisters, aunt and the Bridal attendant I selected 8 dresses. After the 6th dress, I had found THE DRESS. Donna was wonderful helping me fit into dresses, tighten them up, and choosing a veil that truly brought out the dress and me. I had an amazing experience at Village Bridal and I recommend it! The dress I selected was UNDER budget and I could not be happier. They also gave me coupons for Mother of the Bride dresses, groomsmen department, limo service (next door), and told me I will get discounts on bridesmaid dresses. You cannot go wrong with Village Bridal!
I am so shocked at some of the bad reviews this business has received -- I had an AMAZING experience at Village Bridal & Boutique from the first day I set foot in the shop to browse to the day I picked up my fitted wedding gown. It was the third bridal shop I went to when I had started dress shopping, and it was by far the most welcoming and elegant. We were helped by Krissy who was SO sweet and importantly, she stuck strictly to my budget. There was plenty of seating for family, there were tissues, and we were allowed to take pictures of the gowns (which some shops will not let you do). Krissy was so patient as I tried and re-tried on several dresses and my mom took numerous pictures. When I found "the dress" which was already in my budget, she gave me an even better deal on the gown and veil without me asking for any sort of discount. Once my dress came in, the ladies at Village Bridal let me come multiple times to try on the gown for my bridesmaids who lived out of town and wanted to see it when they came to visit. They said I could "visit the dress as much as I want". Additionally, I had a great experience with the alterations. Theresa was my seamstress and she did a WONDERFUL job and there are no scams with their capped prices. She gave me a beautiful bustle on my ballgown dress and even went back to hem it a little more after my third and final fitting and they allowed me to come back once more to try it on before picking up to make sure it was perfect. Please do not listen to all the bad reviews and give this place a chance. I would highly recommend them to any bride. They have a beautiful selection of gowns and a great staff with no hidden fees or scams. You hear about places screwing you over as soon as they get the full payment for the dress but these women remained so wonderful and sweet throughout the entire process!
I went today for my first time wedding dress shopping experience and it was perfect! Before I went I came on here and saw some of the bad reviews. I am not going to lie; I almost did not go because it got me so nervous. But, from the pictures I saw I went anyway, what a great decision! I am bias from my experience and am going to recommend HIGHLY Krissy. She really was incredible, she had no problem tying corset after corset. I saw the review about the place being dump, I cannot disagree more. The place is gorgeous, the bathroom is spotless, and the place you stand by the mirror has plenty of seating for family. Another, big plus for this place, is that I was able to bring 6 people with me. You just have to make an appointment and let them know. I recommend this place without a doubt, the dress selections are great, and again I highly recommend Krissy. This place was a onetime stop for me, I got my dress and veil and left feeling excited to get married!!
I had a fantastic experience at Village Bridal! Everyone was so warm and helpful, they had a huge selection, and they gave us fair prices. I got my bridal gown and all the bridesmaids dresses there. The alterations staff is wonderful, too!
Great people there and great selection! Wouldn't recommend for Mother of the Bride gowns but for bridal gowns they have a beautiful selection and the staff is so helpful. I'd recommend going during the week, the one time I went on a weekend it was a little nuts so if you want a little more attention during the week is a better bet!
This was my first dress-try on appointment and also my last.
It only took 5 dresses in this shop to find the one. The attendant was super helpful and listened to everything I was looking for. She picked a few dresses I would like but also let my party and I pick some. By the 5th dress, we all knew the short search was over.
It took about 7 months for my dress to come in so I am glad i searched a year in advance. The seamstress was great and all 3 fittings were a dream. In the end, my dress fit me like a glove and I could not have been more happy or felt more glamorous.
Laura was great with helping me purchase my dress. The seamstress was also very sweet. Don't let the size of the place discourage you!
I knew the dress I wanted before going to Village Bridal. I called a few days before making an appointment to make sure they had the Enzoni dress I wanted (I tried on lots of dresses in FL with my mom before finding THE ONE)... so I can't really speak to their customer service regarding listening to what you are interested in and showing you possible choices.
Their store is beautiful, clean and full of lovely dresses ranging in prices. The girl that helped me the day I bought my dress was friendly and helpful. I put my deposit down and couldn't wait for my dress to come in a few months later!
I didn't want to start my fittings too soon as I was just starting to be strict about dieting and working out. So when my dress came in Feb. I knew I wasn't ready for any alterations. Village Bridal let me make an appointment just to see my dress and try it on for the first time. It was a little snug and I was really upset but the girls that were working that night were beyond nice.
A few months later when I went for my first fitting it was a little big and the woman who did the pinning for the alterations and for my bustle was very nice and informative. However, I didn't realize that the bustle she suggested was pretty pricey. I figured it was a once in a lifetime thing and ended up paying close to $700 for all my alterations.
The day of pick up, I was hoping to pick my dress up a little earlier than my scheduled time but the woman I spoke with was pretty unfriendly and told me no. Upon pick up, the woman who showed me my dress before paying the balance and leaving also was very unfriendly.
Overall, Village Bridal had beautiful dresses and I couldn't be more happy with my dress the day of our wedding. Choices are pretty limited when it comes to buying/altering a wedding gown on Long Island at a reputable salon that doesn't have tons of negative reviews. I would def. suggest Village Bridal to other Brides who are shopping for a wedding gown.
Also, one of my bridesmaids had a baby a few weeks before my wedding and when she tried on the dress the night before my wedding, it didn't fit. She bought her dress in Miami, not at Village Bridal. She brought her dress to Village Bridal to see if they could help her and they immediately got to work fixing it. The tailor stayed until almost 11:00pm making sure that the dress was okay and ready for my wedding the following morning. They really were her saving grace because I don't know what we would have done if it didn't fit and wasn't wearable!
The women at village bridal are wonderful. They accommodated my hectic schedule for fittings however they ordered it perfectly as the only alteration I needed was a bustle. It was a wonderful experience to work with them
I was recommended to Village Bridal through a family member who used them, which ended up giving me a discount - score! Upon first entering, before my consultant (I believe her name was Theresa) knew I had a connection, I will admit she made me feel a bit like Julia Roberts during her first visit to Rodeo Drive. When I told her my budget was $1000 she almost had a heart attack in front of me, and responded something to the affect of 'she wasn't sure if they had more than 1 or 2 at that price', followed by telling me and my girls to look around, "but be sure to look at the price tags". I almost walked out right there, but decided maybe she was just having a bad day?! Anyway, I ended up leaving with my dress purchased that day, so it all worked out. After hearing of my connection, they took $325 off of my dress to bring it down to my $1000 budget, and offered a discount on any veil from the shop. After that experience, I was always treated very well, and was extremely happy with my dress. My guests are still calling and complimenting it! Give them a try, but don't jump on the sticker price, as with most bridal shops, they will discount if they know you are serious.
Village bridal had a great selection of dresses With good prices,the attention the provide you is very individualized and I had a great experience
This was the 1st and only place I looked for dresses. I walked in on a Friday afternoon without an appointment. They were very helpful and accomadating. I bought the 3rd dress I tried on. I also go all 8 bridesmaids dresses there and my mom bought her dress there. All the appointments went seamlessly and everyone was very helpful. You did not feel as though you were being rushed. Alterations were also done there and I was very happy with the results.
Good selection. Was VERY happy with my dress and alterations!
My sister bought her wedding dress at Babylon Bridal, so I knew going in that we would be met with a wide selection and a friendly staff.
I was lucky enough to find my dress on the first day, and was completely satisfied with Village Bridal throughout the whole fitting process.
I loved trying on dressed at Village Bridal and Boutique. My dress did not take too long to come in. I loved how my dress came out.
However, the alterations from Village Bridal would have cost me a fortune! I took my dress elsewhere for my fittings and alterations.
I loved this location because the lighting is fantastic for trying on dresses and the staff is very accommodating and friendly. The most important part though, is the seamstress Theresa is amazing...she works wonders!!
Laura, at Village Bridal, is a doll... She was so nice and helpful. They are a bit pricey, but when i told them that another store had the same bridesmaid dresses for less, they matched the price. My only issue is with the fittings... it seems that there is only one seamstress there that actually does the fittings (others just sew), so it can be somewhat difficult to get an appointment and you usually have to wait
I had the best experience shopping for my wedding gown and my bridesmaids dresses at Village Bridal & Boutique! All of the girls working there were knowledgable and extremely helpful!
Not only did I get my dress & bridesmaids dresses here, my friend got her wedding gown here a month before me. They were amazing. Alterations were done just as I wanted them, as were my bridesmaids. It can be a little difficult to get an appt. for the alterations & I always had to take off work, but it was totally worth it! I got so many compliments on my dress.
I loved my dress, which they special ordered for me and gave us a great price.
The staff could be good, but sometimes they were rude and not considerate. The seamstress was great and the dress came out beautiful.
Great customer service, great prices. Shopping here was the best experience, hands down.
I really liked the selection of dresses at Village Bridal. Everything went smooth with ordering and the quality once it got in. The staff is very nice the only thing was I had no idea the alterations would end of being so expensive and they only take it in cash so I had a hard time coming up with the money. Also for my fittings I was on time for my appointments and sometimes they had me waiting up to an hour before anyone saw me or brought my dress down. Otherwise all in all they have beautiful dresses and they do very nice work with alterations.
My Stephen Yearick wedding gown was altered to fit me like a glove... all my girls dresses were also perfect in every way. Love that bridal store.
I was about to enter my 5th bridal salon and I was getting very aggravated and disappointed with all the previous salons. From the second I talked to someone no the phone at Village Bridal to the day I picked up my gown, the girls were sweet, HONEST and friendly. The store is clean, lots of options available and fairly priced. The one and ONLY thing I didn't love was the cost of alterations. I got hit with a $650 alteration bill and I nearly fell over. I wish they would've given me a heads up that the alterations will cost almost as much as my dress! Other than that, I loved them and I was happy with my choice to use them.
My gown was a Demetrios and it was stunning. I ordered from Village Bridal and they were excellent to work with. My only complaint would be that 2 days before the wedding I went to pick up the gown and thank god my mother pressured me to try it on. The alterations weren't done or weren't done correctly because the gown was still too big. They quickly took in the top free of any additional charges and they were very apologetic. I would still highly recommend Village Bridal and their alterations department. The hem was done flawlessly and none of the intricate details of the dress were damaged.
