I absolutely loved my experience at Vintage Chic! Shelby was great to work with, the space was super accommodating for my family, and I felt so beautiful as I tried on a bunch of gorgeous options. When I got to what would be my dress, I KNEW it was the one. Exactly the style I was looking for at a price that felt well worth it! Also, Vintage Chic's partnership with Heather at the Threaded Needle is a huge bonus. She knows their dresses, works well with brides and moms alike, and brings a lot of expertise to the vision of the dress. I looked exactly how I wanted to as a bride on my wedding day, and Shelby and Heather played a huge role in that!
I loved how we had the whole place to ourselves and I loved how Shelby had picked out some dresses based on some inspo pictures I sent her. We went from there and I found my dress. I love it, i originally came to Shelby because I wanted to try on a black dress and it definitely was the one for me :)
Vintage Chic was an amazing experience from the moment I made the appointment. Shelby is amazing, we texted back and forth about dress options that would work for me in my price range as well as style! She is super sweet, the day of the appointment I was extremely nervous and I was so afraid that I wouldn’t find something I liked but that was not the case. From the minute I walked in, Shelby made all my worries and nerves go away! Now, on the topic of the bridal shop- it was absolutely everything I have ever dreamed of. It was perfect, so beautiful inside. That day was perfect and I couldn’t ask for a better experience! It was everything a girl could dream of and more- just absolutely perfect.
I loved my time at Vintage Chic, Shelby and her mother were so helpful in my search! They really listened to what I wanted, and when the time came, they knew I which one was it before I did!
What a great experience! Shelby was wonderful to work with. I loved having the Boutique all to ourselves, it felt very personalized and special for myself and my group! Do yourself a favor and book an appointment, you won't be disappointed.
I have been following Vintage Chic Bridal boutique for years now on social media and finally had my own opportunity to go wedding dress shopping for myself and knew this was going to be where I’d find my dream dress and I was right!! The boutique is stunning and had its own parking lot which was nice! I picked Vintage Chic because I knew they were size inclusive and had a great variety of dresses that I could try on in my size. Their dress selection was stunning. Shelby, the owner, was very thorough before my appointment in asking what I was looking for and had dresses picked out for me based on her expertise and she was not wrong. She hand picked my dream dress and she knew just from looking at me that I had found my dress. To top it all off, after I chose my dress me and my family were treated to a celebratory champagne toast and a confetti popper!! I would recommend Vintage Chic to anyone but especially to any of my fellow mid/plus size girlies because the experience was so confidence boosting and welcoming! I’ll update with photos after my wedding date!
Vintage Chic was amazing from the moment I made my appointment! Before I even met Shelby in person we text back and forth about what kind of dress I was looking for, sent examples, and made me feel really listened to! Upon arrival she greeted my party and I as if we had been friends for years! My other dress shopping experience hadn’t really been a positive one and Shelby was sure to tell me right off the bat that this visit would NOT be like that and everything I said she took into account to suggest the PERFECT dress for me. Vintage chic was such a clean beautiful place and was overall so welcoming. Like I said it felt like we’d been friends for years! EVERYONE in my party absolutely loved the shops and the experience! I’d recommend everyone to book an appointment at Vintage Chic!!
Shelby was like my own personal shopper and was able to help me find the perfect dress on the very 1st time! I had been to 4 other bridal boutiques and each time I was asked to rummage through rows of gowns. Not here! It was so relaxed and personable. My Mom and I really appreciated Shelby and Judy throughout the whole experience as she did text me prior to the appointment to gain insight on the venue and me personally. It was everything I was looking for!
I cannot recommend Shelby and the shop enough! This was by far, my most fun and helpful dress shopping experience. Shelby is a natural and knows exactly how to help guide you to your dress. The shop is beautiful and they have so many beautiful dress choices. This is a must stop!
I attended the Oh My Gourd Bridal event at Vintage Chic Bridal and it was so much fun! I found the dress of my dreams and all of my guests loved how flattering it was on me also!! The decor is so cute for photo ops and the staff is so kind and helpful! Highly recommend this bridal shop!
I not only purchased my wedding dress and veil from Vintage Chic, but also a dress preservation kit the week after my wedding! Shelby and her Mom remembered me and the dress I said yes to, which was very humbling! My experiences were one of a kind, personal, and catered to me! I absolutely loved my dress and veil and couldn’t have asked for a better experience dress shopping. Dubuque is so lucky to have such a unique and beautiful bridal store. I would highly recommend Vintage Chic Bridal Boutique!
Shelby was amazing to work with she was very helpful when it came down to finding my perfect dress. Shelby took time out of her day to text me three days before my appointment to find out the style I was looking for and, lucky for her I have been following her for awhile so all my dresses that I loved came from her boutique. I had a breakdown while we were in the back trying on dresses and she let me take my time and never rushed my appointment. Shelby knew my faces by the end of my appointment and knew what dresses I like and what dresses I didn’t. Shelby made it so special when I found THE dress and I couldn’t thank her enough. The day it was an unforgettable.
First off, Shelby and her mom were the absolute best people to work with hands down! She took the time ahead of my appointment to message me to get to know more about what I was wanting and to also learn more about my wedding to get a better idea of everything. It was so nice to be greeted at the door when I arrived and to be instantly taken back into the fitting room where there were dresses already pulled for me to try on. This not only took pressure off me, but it made me not feel overwhelmed with the whole process of looking at all the choices that are available. Being able to have that one-on-one appointment with Shelby and no one else there made it even more special.
I made an appointment shortly after I got engaged. There was a snafu with the scheduled date, but Shelby and her mom were so accommodating and made the appointment happen. I found my dress that day and was not expecting to, as dress shopping can be a long process. I started saving. In the meantime, I could not get the dress or the wonderful service I experienced out of my head. I made another appointment to make sure the dress was the one. Again, Shelby was very accommodating and even contacted me that she had another appointment open the day before my scheduled one. We all felt very comfortable at the appointment both times. I had no hesitations saying yes to my dress with Shelby. There are also no worries about seeing another bride in your dress. The options Shebly has for dresses are perfect! I highly recommend!!!!
I will forever be thankful for my experience with Shelby! The one on one experience made me feel so comfortable. Shelby is so personable and makes you feel like a beautiful bride in so many ways. I had another appointment after hers and she was going to fit me back in her schedule same day if I wanted the dress I loved at her shop. After spending 3 hours at another shop, I texted her that the dress at her shop is the one I love/want. She immediately called me, left her home and welcomed me back in her shop. She even let me try the dress on again. Happy tears were shed for sure! She set the bar so high and I was all smiles from the time I showed up to the time I left. She was so amazing to work with and I am so grateful for everything she helped me with picking out my dress. You are amazing Shelby!
I just picked up my dress with Shelby's mom and she was just as amazing! She also helped me pick out the perfect veil!
I just had an appointment with Shelby over the weekend, going in having no clue what I really wanted. Shelby did great in helping me pick the perfect dresses to try on and when it came down to the final 3 dresses she did great in helping me pick the PERFECT dress. I cant wait until my wedding day to show all of my family and friends the most beautiful dress! Shelby made me and my feel so comfortable, even before my appointment. Shelby was great at communication, before, after and during my appointment!
Dress shopping at vintage chic was so special! Shelby was hands as soon as I booked my appointment, checking in and was so intentional on making the appointment unique to me. Shelby and her mom greeted me and my group of girls with open arms, asking about details of my wedding day and I felt a warm welcome as soon as I walked through the doors. What made Vintage Chic special to me was that I was the only bride in the shop during my appointment. That intentionality was important to me and my group as we felt we received the best support throughout the process. Shelby is so knowledgeable in the bridal industry and made me feel completely comfortable trying on dresses. Not only was the dress trying on experience exceptional, vintage chic is the cutest most charming shop! It’s so fun and girly with pops of pink while having they vintage character feel with the original character of the building. It was clean and organized and was a space I didn’t want to leave. I feel happy to have bought my dress from here and the champagne toasts afterwards made it feel like a celebration!
Dress shopping was made so easy and stress free at Vintage Chic. Shelby takes the time to get to know you, about your wedding, and what you're looking for before your appointment. The appointment is personalized to you and private so you get her full attention while trying on dresses. It is such a nice and welcoming atmosphere where you feel comfortable and beautiful the whole time. Shelby is so knowledgeable and pulls dresses that you may not imagine that you will like but she definitely knows what she is doing!! The dress I said yes to was not something I ever thought I would like but sure enough I tried it on and fell in love. It was truly a great experience all around!
100% exceeded my expectations. Shelby was amazing I could not have asked for a better experience. All the dresses I tried on were absolutely gorgeous. The atmosphere was top 10. You were welcomed with warm arms and they made you feel like you were at home. This place is the one you want to go to say YES to your dress. Their prices are affordable, considering you’re trying on private label dresses. Their costumer service and communication is FANTASTIC, I could text Shelby with any questions and she was right on the ball with answering. Shelby wasn’t just there to sell you a dress, she was there to get to know you, ask you questions, make sure you felt comfortable, tell you how beautiful you looked. She is absolutely amazing. Please, please, please consider Vintage Chic if you are still looking for the right dress, you will not regret it at all!!!!!
Shelby is the best! I had so much fun shopping for my dress. She made everything super special and effortless! I love that you and your party are the only ones there during your appointment. My family had such a good time being there with me, and they all felt so comfortable! I would definitely send everyone I know to Vintage Chic to buy their wedding dress!
I had an amazing time at Vintage Chic picking out my wedding dress. Being a bigger bride isn't easy. Not that many shops cater to plus size. One of my bridesmaids told me I needed to book an appointment at Vintage Chic because they have so many options and sizes that I wouldn't have to worry about fitting into the gowns. She also found her wedding dress there. So, of course, I booked an appointment. Once we we were there, my entourage and I were greeted with champagne and a spacious room for everyone to sit. Shelby, the owner, knew I was looking for a black wedding dress. I had tried other places previously but didn't find "the one". It only took until the second dress for me to say, "Yes!". We also found out that she designed the dress herself. It's amazing to know that I'm going to be walking down the aisle in a one-of-a-kind dress and was able to meet the one who designed it.
Dress shopping with Shelby was a dream! Vintage Chic was my first shop, and going in I had no clue what I wanted in a dress, besides it being white. Before my appointment Shelby had asked if I had any pictures of dresses I liked… these pictures were all over the place. When my mom, sister, and I arrived at the shop Shelby had several (6+) dresses already picked out and waiting for me. I tried on several and we would talk about what I liked and didn’t like. Shelby then would grab more dresses off the rack, or we would switch up styles completely.
Near the end I was able to narrow my search down to two dresses. While I had these two dresses on, Shelby had me hold a flower bouquet and put a veil on me. Once I put on my dress I just knew it, but wasn’t yet convinced. Shelby asked me “if I were to come back tomorrow and this dress was gone (I couldn’t order it) would I be upset?” That’s how I knew for sure it was my dress. One last try on with the veil and bouquet and the tears came 💕.
I could go on and on about my experience at Vintage Chic Bridal Boutique. I was nervous going into today but shelby made me feel so comfortable and I felt so at home. I have never felt more confident and beautiful, the energy they brought along with my bridal party, I seriously felt on top of the world. The communication prior to the appointment was incredible, so much so, she had dresses pulled and waiting for us when we got to the shop. The first one I tried ended up being the one, I was in disbelief and honestly still am! Plus, they have AMAZING champaign so what else could a girl need? ;)
What an amazing experience and atmosphere this was! Shelby and her momma made my dress day so amazing. It was worth every penny and gave me so much more than just a beautiful dress and some sweet treats!
I was greeted with beautiful flowers as I walked in and just pure love and joy. Shelby and her mom were just so sweet and kind. Each detail was beautiful in the boutique and each dress was beautifully made. I had my eyes on one particular dress but she still had me make sure I was shown all the goods that I sent to her.
Shelby, her momma, and my crew made me feel absolutely beautiful in my skin. Complimenting my figure and how I beamed in the dress I picked.
Shelby also took time and care into messaging me before my appointment making sure she got the run down on what I loved and just to get to know each other and make sure I felt prepared comfortable for the day of.
I could not asked for a better place and day to find “the one”. I dropped some tears and could not stop looking at my figure in “the dress”.
If your looking for a one-on-one amazing experience with the most detailed and beautiful dresses at an amazing price. Vintage Chic Bridal Boutique is the place to go!
All I can say is I left feeling stunning, more confident, and knowing that I picked “the one”.
Vintage Chic Bridal Boutique was an amazing place to purchase my wedding dress from! Their response time was fast, their help was amazing, and most importantly they made me feel beautiful. They are very size inclusive and have great updated styles, and many dresses to choose from! They definitely helped make the whole experience stress free.
I had an amazing wedding dress shopping experience at Vintage Chic Bridal Boutique! Shelby, the owner, was an absolute delight to work with. Her professionalism and enthusiasm were evident from the start. She went above and beyond to ensure every detail was taken care of leading up to my appointment, providing helpful information about the location, parking, and pricing of the gowns.
When I arrived for my appointment I was greeted with mimosas and a beautifully prepared dressing room. Shelby had already selected several stunning dresses based on my style preferences. Her keen eye for detail and ability to read my reactions were truly impressive.
What sets Vintage Chic apart is their commitment to size inclusivity. Shelby understands that every bride deserves to feel beautiful and confident, regardless of their size. The boutique celebrates all women, offering a range of sizes and creating a welcoming environment for everyone. The dresses themselves were not only beautiful but also made of exceptional quality materials, ensuring both style and comfort.
One of the highlights of the experience was the exclusive appointments offered at Vintage Chic. With the shop reserved solely for my family and closest friends, I was able to enjoy the process in an intimate and personalized setting. This created a truly special atmosphere.
I cannot recommend Shelby and Vintage Chic Bridal Boutique enough. From the moment I booked my appointment, Shelby made me feel comfortable and excited about finding my perfect wedding dress. If you're searching for a dress that reflects your unique style and a memorable shopping experience, look no further than Vintage Chic. Trust me, you won't be disappointed!
I truly cannot rave enough about my experience at Vintage Chic Bridal Boutique!
I started my search for my perfect gown on my own at a shop near where I lived. Unfortunately, I wasn't offered much guidance, and my body had changed quite a bit in the 10 years since I'd been in a formal gown. I felt defeated and like I'd have to settle to find something that flattered my body type, regardless of how close it was to my ideal gown. I shared some of my frustrations with some friends, one of whom had heard of VCBB at a bridal expo, and her exact words to me were, "they make it so special, and you will feel like a QUEEN!" - and it couldn't be more true.
From the moment I booked with Shelby, I knew from our first conversation that this was going to be the positive experience that I'd been searching for. She took the time to learn about my venue, my vision, and what I'd hoped for in a dress. The day that I showed up for my appointment, she and her mom met my bridal party with mimosas, bundt cakes, and nothing but amazing energy.
I was able to find a dress that surpassed any and every expectation, and I was able to have peace of mind in knowing that every gown in the shop was affordably priced. This was easily one of the most joyous experiences that wedding planning had to offer, and that's all thanks to the efforts of Shelby and her mom!

My experience at Vintage chic was perfect. When me and my bridal party walked in, they greeted us with mimosas and bunt cakes!
Before I went to the store, I was able to talk with Shelby and got to send her some dresses I liked so she could see see what my style was. She also had sent me some options over text and when I arrived, she had them in the back room for me to try on. My bridal party, mother and mother and law got to watch me in an open room while I tried on dresses. I knew in my heart right away when I put on the first dress she had me try on that it was my dress and it was the best feeling ever, but I did continue to try on other dresses just in case. Vintage Chic has a wide variety of dresses which was amazing. After I said yes to my dream dress I went to the counter and my experience was amazing with Shelby as I left with all smiles. I definitely recommend Vintage Chic for you bridal gown needs!
Had the BEST experience in Shelby’s shop! The private showings make the moment all about you! She knows the names of every dress and guides you effortlessly to the perfect one! Shelby helped me navigate what I was expecting to be a very stressful experience (I’m super type A and have difficulties making decorations) and made it fun along the way! I would definitely recommend this place for anyone who has never tried on any dresses before.
Vintage Chic made dress shopping the least stressful part of my wedding planning! Shelby pulled many dresses that were similar to the style I enjoyed and had so many options. She made me feel super welcomed and relaxed all while being honest! The best part was not having an overwhelming of dresses at once! The shop itself is gorgeous along with the staff in it!
I would recommend this shop to anyone! Shelby and her staff are amazing! The wedding planning process is long and can be stressful. So being a plus size bride who wants a black dress, I was worried finding a dress would be almost impossible. Until I found Vintage Chic! I only had to try on 2 dresses before I had THE dress! Vintage Chic Bridal Boutique made this bride VERY happy ❤️❤️
My experience with Vintage Chic Bridal Boutique was amazing!! Shelby is the sweetest human ever and I felt like she really took the time to get to know me even before my appointment. It’s so nice being the only appointment and having Shelby and her mom focused on you the whole time. I went into the appointment with very few details about what I wanted and Shelby was great about helping me narrow down what I was looking for. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking!!
Okay so let’s talk about Shelby! She is truly a fairy godmother! I was simply amazed how she made me feel sooo beautiful, in every dress I tried on. It is hard being a plus size bride, and I went in my appointment not thinking I would say YES TO THE DRESS! But I DID! With Shelby there she was able to make sure that my opinion of my dress was the most important. The dress I picked wasn’t anything that I was looking for, but in Shelby’s words I was a smoke show! 100/10 for to Vintage Chic Bridal Boutique! I cannot wait to walk down the aisle and say yes to the man of my dreams!
Highly recommend Vintage Chic Bridal Boutique! Shelby was amazing! She was very responsive leading up to my appointment with any questions I had, she also asked questions to get to know me and what dress styles I liked. She was very organized and had everything ready upon my arrival. She had selected dresses she thought I would like the best, and the first one I tried one I fell in love with and said yes to my dress! She made this day non stressful and was very caring!
Being a plus size bride I was super worried about finding somewhere to find the perfect dress and vintage chic was the prefect place to do so! Shelby messaged me a couple days before my appointment to see what I was looking for in a dress. I sent pictures of dresses that I really liked and when I got there they were out for me to try on. By the 3rd dress I knew that I had found the one. I can’t wait to be able to wear it on my wedding day! My entire party and I were very impressed! Thank you so much to Shelby and her mom for helping find my dream dress!
Shelby & Judi are absolutely amazing to work with!! Communication was fantastic and not to mention all of the stunning gowns to choose from at affordable prices!! The private appointments really make sure you can focus on finding your perfect dress! Hands down recommend Vintage Chic!! ❤️
Shelby was amazing to work with! Before my appointment, she took the time to reach out to learn more about me and my fiancé, our wedding, and our story, and she definitely paid a lot of attention to detail! When my crew and I walked in, it felt like catching up with an old friend :) I had two dresses in mind, but Shelby was SO supportive and knew exactly how to help me make the best decision for me!
Shelby was an absolute DREAM to work with. She asked some questions about my style before the appointment and had several stunning dresses to try when I arrived. She truly listened to my wishes and I felt fantastic in every dress I tried on. The shop itself is super cute and I appreciated the wide selection of size inclusive dresses. Overall, a wonderful experience!
Shelby was amazing, both helpful and kind! She was fully prepared for my appointment by doing her research in advance to find my style and preferences so when we got there she had already picked out several beautiful dresses to fit what I was looking for!
Shelby was so wonderful to work with! She had messaged me prior to my appointment to get an idea of dresses I was looking for, then had pulled some before I even got there. The process was so streamlined and smooth. There was a wonderful selection of gowns to choose from. I had such a wonderful experience buying my dress here! I would highly recommend all brides experience the Vintage Chic Bridal Boutique ❤️👏.!
Shelby made this appointment well worth the drive for me. It was an amazing personalized appointment. She had dresses already pulled for me to try on, based on the pictures I sent her and the questioner form I filled out prior. It was a very friendly and warm environment. I felt so special and like a bride when I tired on the third dress, which was the one I said “yes” to. I highly recommend making and appointment here if you are looking for your perfect dress!
This place rocks! If you're looking for a cozy, low stress appointment this is your place. Shelby's comments/advice were all so genuine and sincere which made for an easy yes. Say yes to Vintage Chic!
I cannot recommend Vintage Chic enough! The owner, Shelby and her mom went above and beyond pulling dresses and answering my questions. Shelby pulled dresses I might like and sent details for my appointment the night before. She also knew what dresses to have me try and questions to ask to help me feel confident in selecting “the one.”
I found my wedding dress yesterday at Vintage Chic Bridal Boutique, and had a wonderful experience! Shelby and her mom were so sweet and helpful with helping me find the perfect dress! The shop is SO cute, and the experience was so fun!
I can’t say enough about Shelby and her boutique! I had the best experience. Shelby had an idea of dresses I liked and had some pulled for me. She made me fell amazing about myself and trying on dresses. As a plus size bride dress shopping can be stressful but Shelby was amazing and had a variety of beautiful dresses for all sizes t try on! I 100% recommended this shop!
I absolutely loved my experience at Vintage Chic. Shelby was so great to work with, they made me feel special and went above and beyond to make sure I was absolutely in love when I said yes to my dress. I will recommend them to everyone I know from here on out! Absolute perfection, the most kind people and the most beautiful boutique.
Very disappointed & I hate to write such a poor review, but I feel the need to spare other brides of their time & gas.
This shop has such a cute esthetic, and the dresses looked so pretty, but I couldn’t even finish out my appointment. Me & my whole group felt so uncomfortable, we left before even trying anything on.
Shelby had been texting me the night before my appointment, inquiring about the other bridal shops I had been to & asked me to send pictures of dresses I liked. I complied with her messages & let her know the style I was going for. She proceeded to go over pricing (again, even though she stated that when I made my appointment) and made it clear that they do not take check.
I drove 1.5 hours to make my 9 am appointment. I arrived at 9:07, as there was construction leading into Dubuque. I even replied to Shelby to let her know my situation.
When we arrived, we were treated as though we were 30+ minutes late. There was no warm, formal introduction or tour around the shop. I was rudely asked how many other places I had been to & if I had found anything I love at the other places. They immediately sent me back to the dressing room & informed me that they had pulled some dresses for me to try on. My Mom followed me back to the dressing room, but was quickly told to go sit out in the viewing room. When I asked if she could stay back with me, the assistant questioned me - “why would she need to stay, I don’t understand.” The lady assisting me even walked out & brought Shelby back to confront me about asking my Mom to stay. I asked if that was a problem & they both made a huge deal about my request, but proceeded to let her stay. My Mom felt so uncomfortable.
When it came time to try on the dresses, I was told to “strip down” in front of the lady assisting me. I politely asked her if she could step out while I got undressed & before I could even finish talking she stormed out of the dressing room. She walked out to Shelby & proceeded to bad mouth my Mom & I in front of my group who were waiting in the next room. We could hear everything. It was so awkward that my Mom looked at me & said, “Maybe we should just leave”. We grabbed our stuff & informed them that we were going to head out. The assistant proceeded to tell my Mom that “we just can’t have you back there when you’re not certified to handle our dresses”. My Mom was simply sitting in the corner chair providing emotional support. Of all the shops I’ve been to, none of the others said a word about her being with me.
I was in complete shock. I couldn’t imagine treating my customer with such aggressively, rude behavior. It was very clear that I was just a sale. We were obviously uncomfortable, but they provided no apologetic words to follow. It was unlike anything I’ve ever experienced.
Shelby and Judy were the absolute best! Shelby asked me to send pictures of dresses I've liked so far, but halfway thru the appointment we ended up trying other styles and I ended up with a dress completely different from what I had sent her - a dress that's beautiful and comfortable!
Their space is perfect for what they do and makes a great little wedding boutique. They only take one appointment at a time so all their attention is focused on you, so it makes for a very personalized experience. That and their dedication of helping you find the right dress, and how they celebrate when you do just makes finding "The Dress" a very special occasion. I am so happy I was able to have that experience with them.
I saw the shop’s facebook page & was immediately intrigued. Dresses are fairly priced & appointment was very organized, I found my dream dress in the ones chosen just for me! The experience was very personable & unique to the individual, highly recommend
Shelby was absolutely amazing! Not pushy and made me feel comfortable with my body size. She was super supportive of my decision and I cannot thank her and her mother enough. 10/10 recommend.
I knew I wanted to go to Vintage Chic Bridal Boutique for my dress as soon as I came across their Facebook page. I loved the dresses and loved what Shelby stands for and the experience she provides. I went in May during her appreciation month (another thing I love! Supporting those who support others!) and truly felt like it was a dream. Shelby had messaged me a few days before my appointment asking for ideas of what I was liking and envisioning for my dress. When I got there, Judy (Shelby’s mom) was so fantastic! She was truly the best hype lady and allowed me to feel so confident and comfortable during my appointment! After finding the one, shedding some tears, and saying yes to my dress, we celebrated with a champagne toast! Truly a day I’ll never forget.
Vintage Chic Bridal Boutique was the best wedding related decision I could have made! I first experienced Vintage Chic was with my friend back in October of august of 2021. It was such a wonderful, and personalized experience that I knew I wanted that for myself! Shelby reached out to me about a week before my appointment and asked for pictures of my favorite dresses from her collection that I wanted to try on. When it was time for my appointment, Judy (Shelby’s mom) was such an amazing help! We started trying on and talking about what I liked and didn’t like and Judy grabbed a dress off the rack and that was my dream dress! I recommend Vintage Chic to everyone!
Vintage Chic Bridal Boutique is simply wonderful! Shelby is amazing and great at what she does! She reached out before hand to ask me what I like, didn’t like, sizing and price range. She then had a bunch of dresses ready for me when I got there. I fell in love with the first one I put on in her store! Seriously I can’t recommend going to her enough! The store is absolutely adorable, and the appointment time worked out so we had the store to ourselves which just made the experience just more special and comfortable! 💕
Vintage Chic gave us an amazing, completely personalized, one of a kind experience. I cannot recommend them highly enough! The shop was so cozy and intimate (We had the shop all to ourselves and the full attention of 2 very talented consultants!) The sales consultants were so kind and knowledgeable. They absolutely nailed my style with every dress they pulled for me. The shop and experience was so unique, I'll cherish it forever.
A+ experience.
Vintage Chic Bridal Boutique really know what they are doing. They reached out ahead of time to find out what I was looking for, my likes and dislikes, sizing, and price range. They then pulled dresses and had them ready when we got there. Appointment ran very smooth and the Boutique is beautiful 😍! Best experience by far, thanks so much VCBB!!! LOVE MY DRESS!!!
When I first booked my appointment, I was not sure what I really wanted! Shelby was great at bringing me options and narrowing it down based off what I did and didn’t like. She is very knowledgeable and good at what she does. She made me feel comfortable and confident in everything I tried on! I actually did not plan to get my dress the day I was there because it was still early and I was “just searching”, but I ended up falling in love with my dress. At that appointment, I was not able to have my mom and sister with me so it was hard for me to say yes right then. Shelby was very patient and let me feel all of my emotions. We ended up video calling my mom and sister, and I was able to say yes to the dress with them on the call! Her patience and kindness with me while I talked to my mom and sister made my “yes” moment very special! She is such a gem to work with and has so many beautiful gowns! I highly recommend Shelby and her adorable boutique!
I found the most beautiful dress and had the best experience choosing it here. It could not have been easier! 🥳
Shelby, her mom, and the boutique were a dream come true! Wedding dress shopping was something I was dreading but she made my experience so comfortable and fun! I am sad it is over because I want to keep going back to her boutique! She truly cares for her brides and even helps find accessories and has recommendations for alterations. She made my dress dreams come true!!!!
Shelby was AMAZING to work with. The whole setting was very welcoming and personal. I went in not having a single idea on what style of dress I wanted. Shelby had some picked out that I tried on and I just wasn't feeling any of them enough to say yes. I asked to try a complete opposite style than what I was trying and the second she got it zipped, I fell in love. My entourage wasn't as in love with the dress as I was and Shelby made sure that I kept my positive feelings on it and didn't let everyone else's opinions get the best of me! I could not have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend Vintage Chic Bridal Boutique to any brides-to-be! Having her support in picking out a phenomenal dress will definitely make our September 2023 wedding that much more amazing!
I had the BEST experience picking the dress of my dreams! This was my first time trying on dresses and I didn’t have a super clear idea of what I pictured myself in. Shelby quickly figured out my style, what I liked and found the perfect dress all while being respectful of my budget! There were so many dresses to choose from including a variety of sizes and styles. I loved the one on one appointment, the atmosphere was so relaxed and we all had a great time. I wouldn’t recommend going anywhere else!
I loved my experience at vintage chic! The best part was that Shelby was messaging me before my appointment to really get a good sense of what dresses I like and what looks good on me. Then when I showed up for my appointment she already had dresses pulled waiting for me. She knew exactly what I wanted. I literally bought the 2nd dress I tried on! I also think there prices are great! I definitely thought the dress I ended up with would have cost me more then it did. I would recommend vintage chic to all future brides!
Vintage Chic was by far the most amazing bridal store experience. Such a kind, inviting, and cozy experience. I never thought I would care much about the experience, but this place changed my mind. It was amazing to have the shop all to yourself and only have your closest people present and viewing! This store was far above and beyond my 5 other store experiences. I would recommend this shop to everyone!
My experience at Vintage Chic was amazing! I loved that I got the store to myself to make it that much more personal. The store and dresses were so beautiful! I highly recommend Vintage Chic to anyone looking for a gorgeous dress!
Great and local business, full of options for every bride and every budget.
Would highly recommend!! Everything was amazing! I had 3 places booked to try on dresses and never made it to the other two places! I got married in October and the dress was absolutely beautiful! If your in need of a dress go see Shelby she will not disappoint you! 💞
highly recommend! great shop with lots of options. Shelby and her mom were both a great help! I will be recommending the shop to everyone.
Such a fantastic shop! I was having trouble finding a dress, and Shelby posted one online, and I knew it was the one. I liked the one appointment at a time set up; I felt less stressed this way.
Shelby is incredible. It is almost impossible not to find a dress in her shop. She takes time to understand what her brides want and she is very passionate about what she does. I was nervous coming into the shop but she put my nerves at ease right away! I highly recommend getting your wedding dress here!
Shelby has been AMAZING to work with since I first found my dress to picking it up this morning. She took the time to learn more about the kind of dress I was looking for, and had the most thoughtful and perfect suggestions - I found my dream dress at Vintage Chic! Highly, highly, highly recommend!
Words cannot describe how happy I am that I chose to visit this boutique!
This was my first time trying on dresses and Shelby blew every expectation out of the water. The building was beautifully decorated and had plenty of space. Shelby helped me in and out of each dress (and ran around like crazy getting more). She was respectful to me Privacy and I felt extremely comfortable. She helped me find the perfect dress - even though it was the complete opposite from every dress I liked in photographs. There was no pressure to hurry, and she helped me find the words to explain what I didn't like about dresses. She went out of my comfort zone and found THE dress. I will be referring any future brides her way!
We loved the atmosphere and friendly welcoming as soon as my friends, family & I walked into Vintage Chic. Shelby was incredibly helpful with helping me narrow down my specific style & listened to what I was wanting. Vintage Chic ended up being my one and only stop for the search of my wedding dress! I cannot wait to wear my gown again on my special day August of 2022, Thank you so much Shelby & employees for giving me a day I'll remember for a lifetime to come! Highly recommend Vintage Chic Bridal.
Shelby was amazing at picking out styles of dresses that I loved on the hanger but also making me try some on that I wasn’t so sure about. She helped me find exactly what i was looking for and even let me come back last minute the day after to put it on again to seal the deal. She was so easy to work with and let me squeal with excitement!
Shelby was AMAZING! I originally scheduled an appointment back in October 2020 but had to cancel. When I started looking for dresses again I immediately scheduled an appointment with Shelby. She remembered exactly what we talked about last time and what I wanted in a dress. The shop itself is gorgeous and inviting. I found my perfect wedding dress all thanks to Shelby!
This was such a fun and encouraging atmosphere! It was a great experience with the one on one interaction. Shelby made it so easy and she knew exactly what I needed!
All I can say is WOW! I was very anxious about going shopping from the beginning. However, my nerves began to settle the minute I started talking with Shelby. Everything from booking the appointment to chatting about my inspiration for my dress felt like I was talking to my best friend. I had never met this woman, but it felt like she knew everything about me.
The minute I stepped foot into the shop, a sense of calm came over me; everything was so serene. Shelby's boutique is stunning- all the gowns were on display, beautiful music playing in the background, and the best part is that you and your party are the only ones there.
From the conversations Shelby and I had before my appointment, she pulled the gowns that she thought I would like the best, and let me tell you, she knows her stuff! I always thought it would be overwhelming trying on dress after dress, but the whole experience set my pace. I never felt rushed. Shelby let me take my time and talk it through with her and my party.
When it came time to say "yes" to my dress, Shelby was so supportive. Some places can feel like the salesperson is reassuring you this is the one because they want to make the sale. Not Shelby. She was so kind and reassuring in her tone, and I could feel that she genuinely thought this dress was the one for me.
If you couldn't tell already, my experience at Vintage Chic Bridal Boutique was wonderful! I wish I could work with Shelby on all my wedding to-do items! I would recommend anyone visit her store and let her give you the experience she gave to me!
I would recommend Shelby and Vintage Chic Bridal Boutique over and over again! She is so sweet and nice, listens to what you want and makes wedding dress shopping so easy! She has a large selection of dresses to choose from, but it’s not overwhelming. My favorite things about shopping at Vintage Chic Bridal Boutique is that your appointment is a private one! Shelby doesn’t allow anyone in the store during your appointment. I love this because it gives you her undivided attention! You won’t be disappointed getting a dress from Shelby!
I had a great experience with Shelby, she’s wonderful to work with! She had several dresses picked out before my appointment started which made it a quick process. She truly listens to what you like or don’t like. Shelby is very knowledgeable about the dresses she carries and was able to answer all of our questions. Her dresses are absolutely beautiful which makes it difficult to pick just one! The dress I picked is perfect for me and I appreciate that she designed it herself and it’s not one you can find on any other rack! I also appreciate the private appointments so that she can give you her undivided attention. I recommend Shelby and her beautiful store to any bride!
This is a great shop! I did not know what I wanted to wear for our wedding. Shelby helped guide the process in a way that was fun and easy! I'm excited to wear the dress :)
Would absolutely recommend Vintage Chic Bridal. Shelby makes the whole experience relaxing and engaging - especially since my girlfriends surprised me with this day and I didn't give Shelby much
