I found my dream wedding dress at Xandy's Bridal. They had a sample sale and I had purchased my dress without checking for damages. sadly there was a good amount of damage from man...
y people trying it on and clipping it in the back. The associate was super friendly and helpful. my only regret was not looking for that same dress in better condition, which was totally my fault for being dumb and naive. I was not willing to order as a brand new dress so this is what i settled with. Their selection fit my style of dainty lace and structured bodice. I ended up with a beautiful Maggie Soterro (winter) a-line dress for my wedding day. because the bodice was very sheer, i had the salon order 2 yards of fabric from the designer which took about 2 months to pick up. I also got some extra replacement buttons to match my sample dress. Overall, I'm happy with the price that I paid and the service at the salon.
!!! Bridal Shop Review !!! - Xandy's (Anoka, Minnesota)
If you have not been dress shopping, or you're still looking, or you're looking for cocktail dresses, or men's suits, or WH...
ATEVER, you NEED (needddddd) to go to Xandy's in Anoka. I feel like prior to my appointment, I haven't had an outstanding retail experience in years (it's rare), and I left the shop wanting to be friends with every person at Xandy's!!!
From the outside, the shop is a little bit hidden (it's not downtown Anoka), but when you walk in, you immediately get the feeling of a classy, low-key, charming boutique. Everything in there is so put together and cute, and you're immediately welcomed upon walking in.
The person who greeted me was also my stylist (Alex) and she was phenomenal. She was also training someone new, and her trainee was so sweet as well. After talking with me about what type of dress I was looking for and what some of my concern areas might be, she grabbed 4-5 dresses and stashed them in my fitting room.
Y'ALL. Every single dress she put me in, fit my body like it had a personal vendetta against ill-fitting clothing. Every. Single. Dress. Every time I walked out of the fitting room with a new dress on, my attendees audibly gasped.
Alex knows exactly what she's doing, and it's fitting, because halfway through my appointment, she told me she's the owner. And she's the cutest, kindest, silliest, most humble and knowledgeable owner ever!!!!!!
She goes above and beyond to make sure you're comfortable, relaxed, you're having fun, and accommodates pretty much anything you could ask for. The only thing she wasn't comfortable with was helping to get my Spanx out of a wad (hahahahaha). Although, I'm sure she would have, if I had indicated I was serious.
Sometimes in these types of big decision-making experiences, I feel like I am just another number talking to an overworked, money-hungry sales person, and I didn't for one second feel that way at Xandy's. I felt like Alex was my personal hype woman, fairy godmother, and long-lost best friend all rolled into one: cheering me on, zipping me up, and personally invested in making sure I left feeling like a million bucks, not like someone trying to sell me a million-dollar dress.
They are having a sale from November 7th - November 9th: every bridal gown is $1,399 or less, and I'm telling you, there is something there for every person (unless y'all buy out all of her stock!).
I could not recommend Xandy's enough, and I will forever be singing their praises. At the end of the day, I SAID YES TO MY DRESS!! If you go there and see Alex, tell her I say hello and that I sent you!!!

Xandy’s Bridal was absolutely terrific! From the moment we arrived for our appointment, we were met with so much kindness and warmth. I brought along my mom, grandma, mothe...
r-in-law, family friend, and goddaughter — and there was plenty of comfortable seating for everyone to enjoy the experience with me.
The staff was incredibly helpful and supportive, assisting me into every dress and making the whole process feel special and stress-free. I ended up finding the one! There were smiles, tears, and cheers all around. They even had a cute “I said yes to the dress” sign and fun props for photos, which made the moment even more memorable.
They also went above and beyond by recommending a great shop for alterations, which was so helpful and made the whole process even smoother.
Overall, I couldn’t be happier with the care, quality, and customer service from Xandy’s Bridal. It was such a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend them to any bride-to-be!

fortable and excited while trying on dresses. They really listened to what I was looking for and helped me find styles that suited me perfectly. I left feeling confident and happy—highly recommend to any bride-to-be!
My daughter had the most amazing time with Sia at Xandy's a couple of weeks ago. We had packed the day with three shops to explore (Wedding Shoppe, A&Be, Xandy's). Living in Wester...
n Wisconsin, traveling to Anoka felt like a bit of a stretch but the online and social media reviews help me convince my daughter we had to include Xandy's in her dress shopping day. SO glad we did. Xandy's was the last stop of the day; there had been one dress that had taken the lead at the first stop followed by a incredibly discouraging experience at the second stop ("I have to be honest with you; I don't think we have anything you are looking for"). Arriving at Xandy's last was like a breath of fresh air. SO much peace. So much love. So much happiness. Instead of having our daughter rehash her day, Sia started from square one, listened carefully to our daughter and pulled dress after dress that wrapped our daughter in happiness. The decision wasn't easy but when a very special song randomly played overhead while our daughter was in one of the many incredible gowns, it was the sign she was looking for. Our daughter doesn't easily show emotion but the moment overcame her and, alas, SHE SAID YES TO not just the dress but also an incredibly perfectly matched veil! SIA- you will never be forgotten! We look forward to several months from now at dress + veil pick up!!
We had a great experience trying on dresses, but when it came to ordering a dress, the dress was way too big. I had to pay another business more than I had budgeted for alterations...
and Xandy’s did not take accountability for the large dress size that was ordered for me. It was hard to picture myself in that dress on my wedding day. Even with alterations the dress was still big on me for the wedding.
After a long day of wedding dress shopping and no luck, I didn't think I was going to find my dress... until I went to Xandy's! My stylist, Emiley, was incredibly helpful - she cur...
ated a selection that matched my vision, as well as some more unique options. She helped me keep an open mind, and by the end of the session I selected a dress (Maggie Sottero) that I probably would have passed up without her help! Emiley helped me customize my dress by adding flutter sleeves, which were a perfect compliment to the ethereal style of the dress. I was so impressed by the selection at Xandy's, as well as the high quality materials of their dresses. I have never felt more beautiful than I did on my wedding day! Thank you, Emiley and Xandy's, for helping me find my perfect dress!
Absolutely amazing!!! My consultant actually cared and asked questions about each dress i tried on to determine what dress might be “the one” - i ended up finding it here (one i ne...
ver would have picked myself) after looking at David’s bridal twice and had horrible experiences there. Going to Xandy’s completely changed how i felt about dress shopping, and not just because i actually found my dress, the experience was overall pleasant and not overwhelming/ frustrating like it was at David’s bridal. I could not be happier and would highly recommend!!!!
Just an amazing job helping to make me comfortable during the dress selection process and finding my dream dress! Beautiful store and the sweetest women!
Best staff and dresses ever!
After having issues with my dressing coming in on time form the initial store I purchased from, I decided to go back to Xandy's. My experience here was fantastic. All 3 appointment...
s I went to they were patient and kind! They worked with me to try and navigate finding a second dress that would compare to the original dress I had ordered. I ended up ordering a second dress from them and feel so much relief. Highly recommend shopping with them!
It was a dream come true shopping at the Xandy’s Bridal House. Walked in with a few ideas that I liked and left in something completely different. Emily was hands down the sweetest...
person to work with, and she let me try on whatever I wanted to. Highly recommend going to Xandy’s Bridal house for your dress that have so many different dresses to look at.

st, I almost didn't keep my appointment because the website didn't have a lot of dress that jumped out at me, but I'm so glad I kept my appointment because I found my wedding dress at Xandy's Bridal House!
With that being said, Emma, my consultant was amazing! My group of gals were taking lots of pictures, recordings, and we were talking in our native language. Emma never once made any of us feel uncomfortable. She smiled and giggled with us and said she loved our energy. And the best part, Emma gave me a variety of style dresses to try on! My sister mentioned, "Even after you already narrowed down to your two favorite ones, she still pulled more dresses for you to try on. She was in no way rushing you to make a decision and be done." And I agree. I would recommend Xandy's bridal house to anyone, and everyone wedding dress shopping.

hat I felt was the most comfortable and right in. I was a little nervous since I typically don't like being the center of attention with all eyes on me, but Emily, Emma, and the entire staff at Xandy's made me feel comfortable and at ease. They truly made purchasing a wedding dress a special experience that was all fun and joyous. I highly recommend Xandy's for your wedding dress purchase and experience!

tylist Cia made me feel confident and special every step of the way and made sure to remind everyone it was MY dress we were shopping for. I never felt rushed in or out of dresses and never felt pressured to buy that day, even though I fell in love with one of the dresses and said yes! It was a wonderful experience and cannot recommend Xandy's enough!
10/10 would recommend. Love love LOVED my experience here. I felt comfortable and I said yes to my dress :)

nce. :) We visited a couple other bridal salons and felt they had an overwhelming amount of dresses. At Xandy's, they had a perfect amount - not too little, not too many. I definitely recommend this shop to other brides.

I absolutely loved working with Xandy's Bridal House to find the perfect dress for my day. There was an certain look I had in my head about what I wanted, but the stylist pulled a ...
"wild card" and it turned out to be perfect. Everything with them was so lovely and went smoothly, I highly recommend them!
I did not have an appointment and they said they could squeeze me in. I truly thought they would give most of their time to the appointment bride, and I was okay with that! However...
, they gave me plenty of attention and made me feel like a special bride! I had no idea I was going to be trying on dresses that day let alone buying a dress, but they went above and beyond to see ny vision and pull dresses to that liking. I am in love with my dress and the experience I had here! Thank you!
I had such a fun time trying on the gorgeous dresses at Xandy’s and had the best help finding the dresses that fit my vision!

e within a matter of minutes (she's a pro!), and she was honest about the dresses that were good for me and not. I ended up trying on a dress that I wasn't expecting and knew it was a match when I started crying happy tears. I would highly recommend Xandy's to anyone who wants the full experience!

ence while wedding dress shopping, should go to Xandy's! Some of the highlights- having my own reservation so we had the shop to ourselves, a variety of dress styles and sizes, an incredibly attentive and helpful stylist, great photo ops, no pressure. I said yes to the dress at Xandy's and am so thankful for such a memorable experience!
I had the BEST time at Xandy’s with Emily. She was incredibly kind and honest. I went to 3 bridal shops and nothing came close to the amazing experience I had a Xandy’s. We went ri...

store, it made it a lot less intimidating and I felt like Sia really cared about my opinions and helped me figure out what would look best on me. This was the best experience I could have imagined. And everything was within budget. Xandy’s is for brides of every size, style, and budget. I feel so well taken care of!

many compliments! I would recommenced Xandys to everyone. Alex was a great communicator and owns a beauty business.
Thank you so much for such an incredible experience! Truly I was so impressed with your sweet shop! You bring such light to this world! So excited I bought my dress at Xandy's!
Alex was great! She was patient, listened, and gave great advice to lead me towards my dream dress. The facility is beautiful and they have a lot of options for all different types...
and sizes of brides. I hope I don’t ever have to go back to get another dress but if I had a do-over, I would go back to her again in a heartbeat.
The thing that makes Xandy's so special is having the entire shop to yourself. I was only shopping with my mother and it was so peaceful and relaxing getting that very personalized...
experience. They have amazing gowns and such a good selection. Xandy's was the only store out of 8 that even carried the "dress of my dreams", that I fell in love with on the internet. And even better, when I arrived they had it pulled out to try on and a short selection of other gowns that matched my personal style. This was also the first store that didn't pressure me into trying on what is considered in fashion now (fit and flare). I knew I wanted to be a princess and I knew I wanted a ballgown, and they didn't make me waste time with fit and flares. This was my 8th bridal store, so I have seen the high-end, the good, the bad, and the disastrous. And it just so happens that I said yes to the very last gown I tried on and it was the gown that the stylist pulled for me.
Give Xandy's a try! You won't regret it.
I booked a VIP session and it was AMAZING! I met with Xandy over Zoom to talk about my vision going in. She even was able to get a dress I had my eye on they don't normally carry!...
I was able to try on every style i had ever wanted to try so i was 100% sure about the dress i chose. She even had a photographer come in to capture the experience, which was so special to me. My consultant was Emiley and she was so wonderful! she was kind and so knowledgeable about the dresses! She was able to key into my vibe and what I was liking and pulled dresses based on what I'd like. My entourage and I had an amazing time snacking and talking dresses! I'm so happy I got my dress here and I'd recommend Xandy's Bridal House to any bride in the area!
Emily was the sweetest! I was overwhelmed & while I sort of had a vision going in, I was also open to all options. She helped me narrow down my search & helped talked me through my...
decision process. Everything looked beautiful so it was very difficult to choose one! But at the end, her experience & knowledge helped me finalize my choice. I loved that she not only fulfilled my openness to try on different styles, but she listened each time to continue to narrow down. She provided recommendations for veils & accessories & mentioned add on sleeves & buttons & strap options with each dress. I felt very comfortable with her!
I found my dream dress at Xandy's after many terrible experiences elsewhere. I LOVED being the only one in the shop, it was very nice to not feel pressured. The staff was amazing a...

They were also very responsive when following up on the status of my order. I wouldn't hesitate to book an appointment at Xandy's!

eyond to help me find my dress, and even after I picked it up! The guys got their tuxes there, and it was easy. There were a few issues with two of the guys tuxes, but Xandy even delivered, communicated and fixed the issue even with short notice. Just above and beyond amazing customer service. I would recommend anyone to go here for bridal dress shopping, and also for suits/tuxes. Affordable place, with options and personalized experience. I can not say enough good things about this place and Xandy. Thank you so much Xandy, we could not have been happier with using Xandy’s!

I had the best experience dress shopping at Xandy’s! Alex was so incredibly kind and helpful throughout the process. When I showed up for my appointment, she already had dresses pi...
cked out based on the pre-appointment questionnaire. Most were exactly what I envisioned, with a couple that were different - but appreciated! I’ve heard from many brides that they picked a dress they never would have grabbed themselves, so I’m glad Alex encouraged me to try something else. At the end of the day I was torn between two dresses, and Alex was so supportive and helped me decide on THE dress that is perfect for my wedding day! She chatted with me, away from the group I brought, to make sure I chose the dress that I really wanted. I’m so excited to have my dream wedding dress and I absolutely recommend Xandy’s to all future brides!
I am a wedding planner, I look at thousands of dresses.. When it came time to choosing my dress, I didn't even know where to begin! I had a vision of what I had always wanted, and ...
Xandy's had something like that! Sure I have worked with Alex in the past, but never as a BRIDE! Alex took on my crazy family, and navigated me through dress shopping with ease! We both knew the dress I thought I wanted, but she got me to step out of my comfort zone and try on some other styles to please my family, and saved the best for last. Alex made me feel comfortable and I found my DREAM DRESS! Also, her shop is super cute, and its nice to try on dresses intimate with your favorite people instead of in a huge store surrounded by strangers! I highly recommend Xandy's for your dress shopping needs!
Such an adorable boutique in a very unique building! My mom and I were able to have the boutique to ourselves for the appointment which a lot of places don’t offer. A special thank...
