Kassie was amazing! I didn't have a great idea of what kind of gown I wanted for my wedding, but she took what I liked from each gown and offered some great suggestions that definitely made me think about which gown to get! I eventually went with my first choice, but there was no pressure, rush or stress. She was so helpful, and made a day I was stressed about so much easier!

As a father of the Bride I have had the best experience in getting fit for a Tux. From the start to the finish, the staff has been nothing short of top notch! Their very friendly, professional and always very inviting. Definitely worth the trip, when occasions and memories count.

My daughter and I went to Modern Bride after visiting 2 other bridal salons in Nashua. I'll let them remain nameless but let's just say the experience with them made me appreciate Modern Bride's excellence even more! We walked in and were introduced to 2 wonderful young women to assist us - Kassie and Renee G. At first I felt that they weren't asking enough questions but they were just very tactful and respectful - nothing was rushed! The area for my daughter to look at the gowns was great, it was more private than the others and included a step up platform which was so important to get a better feel of the dress. I'd noticed that Renee was petite like my daughter and I mentioned to her that it's so hard to try on gowns as they're all swimming on her. She knew exactly what I meant and immediately ran around picking out the most beautiful gowns. Both Kassie and Renee had excellent taste. They both really cared about my daughter finding the perfect dress for her big day, none of that feeling we were just a number like the first one we went to! (Can we say the attitude and drama of 'Yes to the Dress' show?! Awful!) Also, they really cared about our budget parameters and were so kind! Never once did I get the feeling they were treating us differently because it might have been lower than they preferred!Within literally minutes, my daughter was presented with the most incredible dress - THE dress! So perfect for her body shape and petite frame! If you have a petite frame you have to get an appointment with Renee G! And if you are looking for an incredible experience, save yourself the wasted time and frustration and make an appointment with Modern Bride first!! From the peaceful unrushed atmosphere, the beautiful presentation of the store's inventory, the incredible sales women (Kassie and Renee were the best!! So kind and so knowledgeable!) The alterations consultant was also so easy to work with and was an expert in her field! I'm so thankful to Kassie and Renee G for making my daughter's experience amazing and for their savvy knowledge of how to be the very best in their role and experts in their field! 5 stars all the way!

They never measured my daughter. Defaulted to floor model size she tried on. When it came in, it was too small and they said sorry - not enough to let out! Their suggestion; bring it home, wear around to stretch out like the floor model. She explained she had 2 dogs and lived with her fiancé . Their response - we have no other suggestions. When I shared the story with my seamstress, she said she could've fixed it. We now own the dress so we were in a position of finding something off the rack. The shop we found, Blushing Bride in Peabody, was amazing - my daughters new dress was so amazing and unique!! Be careful shopping at modern bride. They don't stand behind their product! In the end, my daughter ended up with such a better dress & an amazing fit.

It was a pleasure working with Brian at Modern Bride / Jim's Formal. Beyond helpful and professional. We brought most of my groomsmen and both fathers in for fittings and the team there were amazing. Brian knows his stuff and we would highly recommend his services. My brother (best man) thanked me after his speech noting that the suit we picked out helped to give him the confidence to stand up in front of our crowd.Thank you Brian!Photos by Brightly & Free @brightlyandfree

I bought my mother if the bride dress here and the women that helped me were very helpful and friendly. The atmosphere is very welcoming. They also have lingerie, which is extremely convenient. I would highly recommend Modern Bride.

All the reviews you read about them being rude; believe those reviews. I can tell you that they were extremely rude to us and they even asked us to go somewhere else and get off their private property. Totally rude!I find it totally intriguing that they would respond to kicking someone off their property RUDELY just for having lunch there but they won't comment on the reviews about their products and services.Brian, after informing your employee we were having lunch there then being told "this is private property, go somewhere else" and then the employee walking off is not my idea of kindly asking. I think you should have called the police, they would have handled it more tactfully and they would have recognized the difference between a bottle of water and alcohol. Maybe you should look at the "swamp" behind your store. With the spring thaw with the stream running and ducks landing and playing on the newly melted water, it was totally tranquil and reminded me of our property back home in Maine. That is why we had lunch in your unused back parking lot.

Let me start off by saying that I was greatly surprised by this place & did NOT know what to expect. I think I made the jobs of both Lauren & her sister (whom I fail to remember the name of, Taylor?) very easy. I know which line I need to look at & the (2) dresses I needed to try as a bridesmaid for a destination wedding. Regardless, the first thing I loved was that I was allowed to be accompanied by my boyfriend at my appointment. The second thing I loved was that these girls were built just like me, taller & curvy. It felt like they completely understood my frame & I didn't feel intimidated.Despite the pandemic, they had several appointments, but they were appropriate in keeping people distanced & making sure the dressing rooms were clean after each use. It was weird trying on gowns with a mask on, but what can ya do? When you first walk in, it seems like a very small place. But, to your surprise, it opens up out back to a large area with several racks of dresses (like a fancy warehouse) with a bunch of dressing rooms.During my appointment, I felt extremely important. Lauren & Taylor (?) were right outside my dressing room the entire time. Lauren was there to help zip the dresses I tried on & again, I felt so comfortable. They were both funny & vibrant which made the experience so pleasant. Lauren was also honest which was refreshing. She genuinely cared about me & my comfort & wanted to make certain that I felt confident in my choice. After only 20 minutes or so, I selected a gown & after they took measurements to make sure I ordered the correct size. I went a size bigger just to make sure when it came in I could have it adjusted to fit me better. The price (Bill Levkoff designer) was extremely reasonable for going through them. It can be ordered directly online for about the same price (before shipping) but the experience & making sure the dress works is far more valuable.I am more than impressed with Modern Bride & highly suggest them for brides & their bridal party. Actually, it might even be beneficial for Mothers of the Bride & groomsmen, as they do also offer these services.
