Recently went here as a bridesmaid to help my BFF find her dress. Very personal experience. Not overrun with other brides at the same appt time as you. This place asks you to wash your hands as you arrive, which I loved because the dresses were so clean and in great shape. We had come from another dress shop where all the dresses looked so dingy and in desperate need of cleaning. Overall great experience and a beautiful intimate space.

Shea was an absolute ANGEL! Trying on wedding dresses as a plus size woman can be daunting, but Shea made my experience so amazing. She made me feel so beautiful and comfortable in my own skin. Trying on wedding dresses was something I was nervous about and Shea took all that anxiety away with her kindness and welcoming personality! I could not reccomend her more and I look forward to recommending her to all future brides I meet!

My future daughter in law made an appt at Samila's and from the beginning this was truly an amazing experience! Yasmin made it so personal compared to the other shops we went to by taking the time to talk her about her inspiration dresses and what she had tried on so far. She presented each dress and then let her pick a few as well. It's clear the Yasmin knows women's preferences and women's bodies and by taking the time to get to know my daughter in law it made this a moment to remember. She ended up finding the perfect dress and she is very happy ??

I purchased my wedding gown and veil from Samila Bridal & Formal and loved my experience there. They have friendly staff and a great selection of gowns. My dress arrived on time and I was able to do alterations through their store. I would highly recommend going to Samila. Photography by Courtney Bowlden Photography

This place is so cute! Love the vibe and everyone was so nice. Parking was easy both times. Samila's is an exclusive carrier of Sophia Tolli and those gowns were to die for, every choice I made was from her. I was cautioned that it could take as much as 11 months to get the dress so I would advise to check this place out well in advance. The accessories were by far the best I've seen compared to other bridal shops and Yasmin was SO good at pairing you with accessories that match you and the dress. They have a cart of drinks and snacks and it's sectioned off so even if someone else has an appointment you don't feel awkward. I didn't have a hair tie either and they gifted me two for try on/styling purposes, so nice! I see why these appointments come at a charge because you definitely get that extra level of service. Also the dresses weren't as expensive as I was expecting so that was a pleasant surprise. Yasmin was also great at making selections for you and was clearly very knowledgeable. She was also so amazing with my mother who doesn't speak English well. Sometimes people get short or frustrated with her but Yasmin was amazing and was so good at reading body language and context I sometimes didn't even need to translate! We were all able to have fun despite a language barrier. I do wish there was also a way to see what dresses and accessories were on my profile so I could ogle and see the pricing, potentially also order online based on that. Not a knock on the store but maybe a software item they could consider. Also possible I just completely missed it, I haven't asked so it could be user error!

I had a great experience with Samila Bridal and Formal. They made choosing a wedding dress and going over options for alterations comfortable and stress free. Shea was so wonderful to work with and made me feel fabulous as the soon-to-be bride. She definitely made me feel confident in "saying yes to the dress". I also had my wedding dress alterations completed by Lana at Samila. Lana was also wonderful to work with and completed my alterations in time for the wedding date when completed alterations were promised. She did a lovely job with the alterations and made my dress feel even more like my dream wedding dress. The other ladies I encountered during my time with Samila were also lovely, helpful and great to work with overall. I will definitely be recommending Samila to anyone I know who needs a dress for their wedding or even a formal event. Thank you for such stellar service!

I found the dress of my dreams at Samila, it was such a wonderful and personalized experience! Shae was great, she was so sweet and knowledgeable and my family and I had a pleasant first (and last) bridal dress appointment!! I'm so happy to have been able to find my dream dress at my first shop, and even happier that Samila made it such a fun time!

Shea was absolutely amazing in helping me find my wedding dress! This shop does a wonderful job at making the experience about you - you aren't sharing the space with any other soon-to-be brides during your appointment which makes the service more tailored to you. She knew her inventory like the back of her hand also! Thank you so much!

What a great place to purchase a wedding dress. Yasmin was full of knowledge. My Grand daughter had ideas on what she wanted and she made it come alive.Would recommend this shop and Yasmin anytime.

The stylist was not friendly, kept emphasizing "if time permits" or "not in your price range" not providing any ideas or suggestions. Felt pressured to hurry up since 45 mins was the max time. We were told we were also being too loud if we showed too much excitement for a dress. Was not comfortable and would not recommend.

Wow! What a special way to pick out a prom dress. I cannot recommend enough! We visited other stores, and the quality is superior. We wished she had more events to attend because she could have picked several incredible dresses from Samila. Highly highly highly recommend!!!
