“I came to try on dresses for the very first time at Magnolia Laine, and truly did not expect to walk away with a dress that day!!
Immediately when Ellie introduced herself, I knew I would be in good hands and she would give me the best advice based on what I was looking for. Ellie set the tone for this day, and I could not have asked for a sweeter, more wholesome, hype girl!! She single handily gave me the confidence to choose my dress for all the right reasons!!
The entire staff was incredibly kind and made sure every single expectation I had for the day was met!!! I especially loved that my mom and I never felt rushed or like we were in the way for someone else. I was able to try on every style I wanted, and really have the chance to imagine myself in each dress. I would recommended Magnolia Laine and especially Ellie 100 times over, it was my most favorite experience in the whole wedding planning phenomenon so far!!”
“Katie Jane was absolutely amazing she helped me so much!! She is so pleased with my experience she definitely needs a promotion ASAP! Extremely helpful please go see her my experience was so seamless!”
“The best wedding dress experience , hands down! Nicest staff, most unique gowns, and just a wonderful and positive environment. I loved more dresses than I could have ever imagined. 10/10!”
“GREAT experience!!! I had weirdo feral requests and the girls were HERE FOR IT and totally supportive of my weirdness. Ariannah CRUSHED IT and not only found me a perfect dress but also honored my budget which was incredible! A+++ would recommend!”
“I love this bridal shop! I have been here twice and had wonderful experiences. Anna was especially helpful. She was the one who actually picked out my wedding dress and it is everything!!! Based on the details I provided her about my wedding and the type of dress I was looking for, she was able to provide me with the perfect dress. She was very hands on and had a great personality. Thank you so much! I am so excited for my wedding day!”

“The team at white magnolia made my wedding dress shopping experience such a joy. I had the best time and found the most beautiful dress! Everyone was so helpful and nice. They made the experience very personalized and so special for my family, friends and I. Prior to my appointment, they sent me a link to a portal with all of the gowns they had in store where I could filter by style and price range and heart my favorite gowns prior to my appointment that I wanted to try on. This was so helpful!!! When I arrived at my appointment the team was so nice and had a customized sign on the door to the fitting room with my future last name! The fitting rooms were great as well, they had a dressing room in the room and a couch in the room so you had privacy to try on the dresses with just your party and whoever is helping you and it was only your group in the room. They were so sweet about letting me try on gowns multiple times when I was indecisive. They let us take pictures as well which was so helpful to reference throughout the appointment. They truly went above and beyond to make my experience so amazing! They have the most beautiful dresses and veils as well and at such great price points. Once I found my dress, they also gave me a goody bag which was so sweet. I would highly recommend the white magnolia to anyone looking for an amazing personalized experience, great customer service, and beautiful gowns at great price points!! Thank you so much!!!”
“I had a fantastic experience at Anne Barge Bridal Atelier! Erin and her team were incredibly helpful, staying mindful of my budget while introducing me to a variety of styles I wouldn’t have considered on my own. They were patient and accommodating with my large group of guests, offering thoughtful advice that ultimately led me to finding the dress. The boutique itself is gorgeous, and the gowns are absolutely breathtaking. I highly recommend visiting Anne Barge when shopping for your wedding dress!”
“Beware! I ordered a dress here Saturday 11/2 and was very excited, Conchetta was fantastic! I was told that bridal dress sizes vary widely and my size in this dress was a 10.
At home I was excitedly looking online at the dress and saw that Watters has a sizing chart for each dress. My measurements put me in a 2 not a 10. On Sunday 11/3 I reached out to the salon expressing my concerns and was told by the owner that a 10 was all that was available but he would reach out to their rep and see what could be done. I never would have purchased if I had known it was nowhere close to my size!
On Monday 11/4 Ricardo the salon owner confirmed that a 10 was all they can get. He was very nice telling me “I spoke with my wife and we can make it fit”. He reassured that me that they would make sure I was happy and promised to only charge $500, for the alterations, lol.
I believed him until hearing back from another Watters representative who explained that because “it is a corseted dress with wire structure” alterations would be extensive and it would be “risky” and “difficult for a seamstress to get it down to the right size”. I texted Ricardo the evening of 11/4 with my concerns and asked to speak 11/5.
Tuesday 11/5, I requested to cancel the order and everything changed. No more Mr. Nice guy, now he tells me they don’t allow cancellations.
Update: I’ve update my review from 1 star to 4 because I was refunded and Conchetta and Courtney were so wonderful. I have learned from this experience (having spoken to several seamstresses) that when it comes to alterations you can typically go up 1 size or down 2 sizes, anything more changes the dress. Especially if corsets, boning, or wiring are present.”
“Had a wonderful experience today with Ms. Cathy! They are expanding so just keep that in mind. They had a good variety of dresses and you can select up to I believe 8 dresses. Guests are limited to 4 which I find very reasonable as the shop isn’t very large. You select colored clothes pins and clip them on the gowns you want and your stylist pulls them for you.
They do not have private rooms so you will be trying on dresses in front of others.
I would say the biggest pro is the cost. The average cost seemed to be under $3k and they had several on sale.
I definitely recommend Bridal Sense for new brides to check out on their wedding dress journey!”
“I had a wonderful time at Bella Bridesmaids! The staff was very helpful and they have a massive assortment of dresses, styles and colors to choose from. I would recommend them to anyone!”
“Hailea is the absolute BEST!! She made my whole experience a dream! It’s one thing when someone knows what they’re talking about (and let me tell you she was very professional and knew her stuff) but what really makes a difference is how they make you feel! You only get to be a bride and dress shop once and I could not of asked for a better person to have that experience with! :)”
“I had a wonderful experience at Serendipity Bridal. I called on a Friday and they were able to get me in at 11:00am the next day! They have private rooms which makes the experience even more intimate. My stylist, Sarah was incredible! I had no idea what I wanted when I came in, but left with a beautiful dress because of her! I highly recommend coming here.”
“I found my dream gown at Bridals by Lori and had the most amazing experience. Megan was my consultant and she was an absolute gem. She made me feel so comfortable and was the ultimate hype woman. She even FaceTimed Lori so that I could meet her because I’m such a huge fan. I cannot recommend shopping here enough.”

“Gorgeous custom made dresses , it’s all good material. The workers are very sweet and kind too you , and will fix anything thats wrong with your dress. Its my second time buying from these workers and I would buy again!”
“I wish I could give this place 10 stars I unfortunately bought my dress somewhere else and got major alterations done in a different place, two MAJOR mistakes. Once I finally found this place they’ve fixed everything and have transformed the mistake of a dress I bought. Do not go anywhere else truly I’ve done the research and made the mistakes for you, just start here and be blessed.”
“I recently got married and took my wedding dress to RL Couture Bridal Design for alterations. If I could give Rodica more than 5 stars I would! She is extremely talented and has decades of experience altering wedding gowns (there is nothing she hasn't seen before). She is easy to communicate with and makes scheduling a breeze. You will leave your appointment feeling confident she understood your needs, excited to see her work, and beautiful. I highly recommend Rodica for all your wedding dress alteration needs.”
“I went to brides by nona with a vision and brides by Nona made a true. It was an excellent experience from beginning to end.and 100 would recommend!! Excellent service very accommodating and tended to every need! And made my wedding day perfect!!”
“I had the pleasure of working with Vainglorious Brides for my wedding and I honestly don’t know that my day would’ve been the same without them. I opted for an elevated experience and Vainglorious did not disappoint. Not only was I treated like royalty but so were my bridesmaids. We had gift bags, tea, food, massages, and vibes. My rapport building with the team started at my final fitting and I am so glad they were there. I never would’ve known to point out the things that they noticed needed attention with my dress and they made sure my vision was brought to life. With that being said from my final fitting, to the pre-ceremony and after photos, to me changing into my second dress, they made sure I looked and felt good. Words cannot express how thankful I am for their team. At the very least, when the next event of this magnitude comes along, I’ll be booking again.”
“Bought my beautiful wedding dress here! It was a wonderful experience. The appointment started with champagne, I didn't feel rushed, I found my dream dress which was also SO well priced, and I received it within 2 months. Thank you Anthro!!!”
“Alyssa was a gem to work with. I urgently needed an authentic 1872 men’s suit and she personally answered the phone, sent options within minutes, and had the suit ready for pickup a couple hours later. The suit was in great condition and fit my actor perfectly.
Vintage by Judith is an excellent resource for film wardrobe and costume rentals. Highly recommend working with Alyssa.”
“Having grown up in a small business in a small town in Alabama, I am passionate about "supporting small"...especially when they deliver on all counts. Marneia was THE BEST to work with--creative, knowledgable, and PATIENT when I changed my mind three times! Our change of address/holiday cards are PERFECT, and I have her to thank!!”
“Ruby did such an amazing job on my wedding dress! It was a Martina Liana structured silk dress with a long train that needed quite a bit of hemming and a French bustle added. It looked amazing when I got it back, and I even was able to steam and press it with her shop.”
“Cat and Kara were so nice and accommodating. we had stopped at several other bridal stores before this one. While we did not purchase my daughter's gown here, I found mine. Both experiences were very positive. Fantastic selection. Ark consultants. very patient.”
“If I could give Mandi ten stars, I would! The other bridal salons simply do not compare to the hospitality and “at home” feel you will have with Mandi. From the moment we spoke on the phone, I could tell how much energy and passion Mandi brings to helping you find the perfect dress for YOU! Of all my appointments, even in NYC, she was the absolute most knowledgable, and makes the experience so enjoyable and relaxing.”
“I had the most incredible experience at The Sample Shoppe! Kylie was an absolute dream to work with—so kind, knowledgeable, and genuinely excited to help me find the one. She made the whole process feel effortless and fun, and thanks to her, I found the most beautiful and absolutely perfect gown. I can’t recommend this place enough—ask for Kylie! ?”
