Here is what some previous couples had to say…
“I SAID YES!!!! Wow-what a GREAT experience!! I actually stumbled into this bridal salon basically on accident, not really knowing that it existed before a simple Google search. I had my eye on a different dress up in Winter Park but wanted to check out some other options before I pulled the trigger. I sure am glad that I did!
First of all, the store is all bright white, fresh and new, with a glam feel. Many of the older salons in town are super small and kinda cramped, which is fine, but this was definitely a nice change and I felt like it allowed me to see the gowns better. I knew right away when we walked in that we were going to have a great experience. Not only did I end up finding and buying my dream dress (purchased several visits later), but LaRai was able to show me so many different beautiful gowns that I never would’ve chosen on my own. On top of it all, she is a master with her pin “bracelet”, tucking things up just so and making you feel like each dress is already tailored to fit your body exactly.
By the time you get to the mirror, you already feel like a star! She is really the best attendant I have had at any salon in any city that I have visited. Her knowledge of the different designers in the industry is also excellent. She never made me feel pressured, but rather made me feel welcome with each visit, bringing different bridesmaids or my mom with me. She is also still helping me search for my second gown/reception dress! Truly this new business is a gem. Don’t miss it! I know you’ll love it here!” – Amy R., The Breakers
“I purchased my wedding dress here and had quite a bit of alterations done to the neckline (it dropped much lower than I anticipated) — First fitting, I was a little disappointed, because I felt there was still too much cleavage showing and it was a very intricate design (hard to alter, I assumed). My mother complained to the store and set up an appointment (one week before my wedding) with Ellie and she fixed my dress in just a few minutes! She gave us the time that we needed and fixed it that same night!! She did a FANTASTIC job.
I left with my wedding dress knowing it fit perfectly and was much more appropriate for my wedding. I can’t wait to get married in just six short days. Thank you, Ellie! You’re a superhero in my books!” – Olivia W.
I had a wonderful experience here. I felt a little overwhelmed by the whole wedding dress process, and LaRai made sure I was comfortable and helped me find items I loved and helped me figure out the style I liked the best. She actually picked the piece I fell in love with, after only a few dresses! Highly recommend you go here, she makes it fun and there was an amazing selection of dresses 😍!” – Catherine M.
