I said YES to the dress!

10/10 highly recommend! The perfect "Say YES to the Dress" moment, I could not have asked for anything better. My consultant Emily gave her all to finding me the perfect dress, and she exceeded my expectations over and over again! The Gown goes above and beyond to creating the perfect once in a lifetime experience, and adds so many small touches that make it just that much more special! Thank you The Gown for everything you do!

I couldn't be happier

Emily did an amazing job helping me find my dress! She put up with my crazy loving family and friends and was so understanding with me. I find it hard to find dresses I like due to my body style especially with the athletic body I have and not being a girly girl when it comes to dresses. Emily took her time and made me feel comfortable and understood through the whole process. Thank you Emily!

11/10 - Best overall experience!

Out of all the wedding dress stores I shopped at, I had the BEST experience here! Emily is SUCH a sweetheart and provided a stellar experience for me and my party. She made me feel comfortable right away and was genuinely trying to help me pick my dress, giving me honest opinions instead of telling me everything looked nice. She also made sure I got a dress that I loved and was within my budget. Even the experience after I chose my dress was incredible - Emily hand-wrote me a card and mailed it to my house with a magnet of a picture she took of me and my mom saying 'yes to the dress.' The customer service is 11/10. I recommend this place to every bride. Oh, and they also have the CUTEST dressing rooms!

If you aren't shopping at The Gown for your wedding dress, you are MISSING OUT!

This was a phenomenal experience from start to finish. I LOVE that you can add items to your wish-list in advance of your appointment, and they have them ready for you when you get there. The private fitting rooms were comfortable and cute and really made the experience feel glamorous! Having the option of a Zoom link so that my mother could attend from across the country was such a great touch and made this so special for me. My consultant was Emily, and wow, was she great! She's got tons of energy and she's so positive and knowledgeable - you really feel like you're in good hands.

I did find my dress at my first appointment and the little special touches The Gown puts into everything after you choose really sets them apart. I won't go into details, because I don't want to spoil the surprises, but honestly they just kept making my day even a couple of weeks after the appointment. I can't wait to go back for my dress reveal this summer!

I'm so glad I chose The Gown for my wedding dress shopping experience. I guarantee you won't be disappointed if you come here!

Thank you, Emily!!!!

The Gown is THE place!

I went a few weeks ago for my very first bridal appointment ever! I was really excited but nervous I had a very clear vision of what I thought I wanted and there was no shortage of dresses, you name it they had it!

My experience was magical, the second we walked in we were greeted with smiles and so much comfort and the smell was amazing! We got brought back to our Bridal Suite and got settled in, the most luxurious feeling! Emily was MY PERSON through my whole experience, Emily had my dresses I had saved to my wish list ready to go for me all layed out and took the time to go through the dresses with me prior to putting them on! She did an AMAZING job at pulling different dresses as we were going when I liked certain features on dresses, and even when I wanted to see something very opposite of the style I liked she brought it in right away! Every dress I tried on Emily heard me on my opinions and thoughts and made sure I had the most beautiful experience!

I ended up saying YES to the dress at The Gown! The experience of saying yes at The Gown was another magical moment! They brought over mocktails for me and my party and my glass was customized “I said YES”, and after we got to go over to their photo wall and we got a group picture!

The experience was more than I ever thought I would have, there was no shortage of special moments and I am so thankful for the experience I had at The Gown, and I am so thankful for Emily for hearing me, understanding me and making me feel so beautiful on my Yes day!! Seriously Emily was so great I’d put her in my bridal party!! I can’t wait to go back for my reveal day!!!

Beautiful & Relaxing appointment with Shannon

Shannon was absolutely amazing !! She took time with me before even trying on dresses to help me de-stress and be comfortable with the process. She picked amazing dresses based on what I did and didn’t like and thanks to her, I found my dream dress on my very first appointment! Thank you so much Shannon ❤️
