Bridal Shops in Geneva, IL

“I also joined yelp to be able to write this review. I bought a wedding dress from Caroline de Villo at her sample sale about a year ago. She and her associates treated me with the utmost respect. This is the only store i went to for wedding dresses. I live in the neighborhood and had my eye on a specific dress hanging in her window. I was thrilled that I was able to buy my wedding dress from a local store to support local industry. Over the course of fittings, Caroline (the designer herself) continually amazed me. I was struggling with a very sick future in-law and was close to tears during several fittings. She offered wine, hugs, and texted directions on how to bustle the dress when I forgot (even though she had shown me). When I kept losing weight from the stress of having a sick in-law, Caroline scheduled more fittings and did more alterations to make sure the dress fit properly. Two days before my wedding I was supposed to pick up my dress at noon and then pick up my in-laws. My father-in-law's health prevented him from making his original flight and my schedule got changed around. Caroline had her husband stay at the store while she had a off-site meeting so that I could pick up my wedding dress at a different time. On my wedding day, the first thing anyone asked me was "Where did you get your dress?" People were in awe of the intricate lacework, the fit, everything about it. It was a unique dress (the Eliza) not like every other dress you see in bridal magazines. It fit my personality and made me feel like me but 1000 times more beautiful than I normally am. Caroline is a perfectionist and the dress fit like a glove. I urge all brides-to-be to visit her shop and see the beautiful gowns she has--and veils, shoes, bridesmaid dresses, and jewelry. Buying my wedding dress and working with Caroline was one of the few pleasures of wedding planning.”

“The crystal bride and specifically Erika are so incredible! I went in for my appointment and she was so receptive to all my ideas and answered all my questions. On our pre-appointment call she was so excited to hear my vision for my dress and she NAILED IT. I ended up trying on 7 dresses total and the 4th one was the one! Every single dress she picked out for me was beautiful and all of them had aspects I loved! Would 10/10 recommend to anyone.”

“An amazing boutique! They treated my daughter with so much love and care as she was shopping for her wedding dress. Such a positive experience and stayed within our budget! We had had a horrible experience earlier in the day at another shop so I'm so happy we had an appt here and were able to end my daughter's wedding dress search in such a positive place. Highly, highly recommend if you want one-on-one attention and love.”
