Bridal Shops in Washington, DC

“An exceptional experience at a fine institution. The proprietor Ed took care of us in a timely manner without lacking even the smallest attention to detail. We are visiting for the DC Mardi Gras and needed tuxedos last minute. Ed was very accommodating and his prices were so reasonable! We are leaving tomorrow and he even offered to pickup our clothes from the hotel for us. Wow! Great service, and will definitely be back next time in DC. Oh and he recommended Martin's Tavern for lunch, a local establishment, calling the manager to ensure we got in!”

“I've known I wanted to shop for a dress at Anthropologie for over a decade, ever since I walked into one as a teenager and fell in love with the dresses hanging up around the space. Sarah was our bridal stylist and she was absolutely amazing. She was so friendly and attentive, she really made me feel special and made sure to check in with me and figure out exactly what I liked and didn't. We tried in seven dresses total, and I ended up trying two again, all within the hour-long session. I honestly had no expectations coming in, I thought I'd try a few on and then come back for a second appointment. But I'm so excited to say I found the perfect dress for my elopement. The one I chose ended up around $1300, which was a great price for how gorgeous and well made the dress is. We bought before we left and it was back ordered, so I should get it in a few weeks! Thank you to Sarah and the entire Anthropologie team, it was such a fun, easy experience and all of the dresses are so gorgeous.”

“I did not end up finding my dress at Lovely Bride but still had an excellent experience and would highly recommend it. Lovely Bride was the second bridal shop I visited while I was still figuring out what kind of dress I liked. The consultant who helped us, Elizabeth, was very friendly and knowledgeable, and pulled a good range of dresses which really helped me get a better feel for what silhouettes and styles worked for me/didn't work for me.”

“Can't thank Ed enough for helping us get ourselves together in time for an incredibly important weekend. He knew all the questions to ask to save us from ourselves, and his attention to detail was apparent when the big day came. Incredibly accommodating and made every bit of this process a breeze. Thanks again, Ed.”

“I had a great experience at Nazemi Bridal. Tannaz and her staff are very friendly and professional. She put a lot of time listening to my concerns, giving ideas and suggesting improvements. I have a very delicate gown so the precision of the work was very important. Couldn’t be happier with the results! You’ll get great customer service and work done at this place!”

“Any words I can share on my bridal experience at this Anthropologie location would not be enough to convey the magical moment I lived during my first-ever bridal appointment with Allison and Marelle.Let me start by saying that the prospect of dress shopping without some of the most important people in my life present made me nervous and sad, until I had my bridal appointment with the BHLDN team on M street.From the very first moment I walked into my appointment in November 2023, they made me feel welcome, special, and one of a kind. They helped guide me toward dress styles I had not even thought about and solidified my decision about the overall shape and style I wanted.I ultimately ended up going with a different dress at another store and I have regretted that decision since. Please don't hesitate to go here for your dress.Thank you for making this experience an unforgettable one :)”

“Modern Trousseau has the friendliest and most welcoming staff! Although I did not ultimately purchase my dress here, I was absolutely blown away by Calla's helpfulness and sincere kindness while I tried on gowns. This shop is an absolute gem, and I love that they offer so many options for customization.”

“Fleuris is so friendly and has done an amazing job with two dresses in the past and now my wedding dress. They are not cheap but you will not be disappointed with their work. They are clearly very skilled and can make adjustments while you wait to make sure every little detail is how you like it.”

“Found my beautiful dress at Carine's! The selection of gowns was absolutely stunning, and the salon was clean and comfortable. Kate was so helpful, kind, and knowledgeable. She gave amazing recommendations and I really appreciate her honest feedback in identifying styles that flattered me (as well as ones that didn't necessarily work)! As someone with a mid-size/curvy body type, I was really happy that many of the samples came in sizes to fit me. I was lucky enough to visit during a sample sale, so I paid 50% of the list price for a gorgeous dress in wonderful condition. I would highly recommend Carine's to any bride-to-be!”

“Had a great experience with Bella Bridesmaids DC! The ladies were so helpful as I looked for a dress and made the experience so much fun. My bridesmaids received their dresses without any issues and looked perfect. My vision definitely came to life!”
