I had my bridal appointment with Laura yesterday and I had such an amazing experience! She was incredibly helpful and I ended up saying yes to my dress! read more

The experience was perfect! Kat was so helpful, kind, and personable. I can't say enough great things about the service. The dresses are reasonably priced and the selection is beautiful. Kat was extremely knowledgeable on alteration estimations. read more

I had Laura design a "Getting Ready" robe from my 35 year old Satin wedding dress. I also got a small clutch made from my dress as well. I gave these to my daughter at her bridal shower and she couldn't have been more excited. Everyone at the shower was amazed and thought the robe was beautiful. Laura was great to work with. She is very professional and very talented. I just love her super cute bridal shop. I highly recommend A Brides Design in Avon, Ohio. read more

Just finished wedding dress shopping with my cousin. We went to David's Bridal, Pat Catan's, Leonardo's and then went to A Bride's Design. We had other places on our list for the day, but after meeting Laura and seeing her dresses, we cancelled the other appointments. Laura is amazing and so are all her designs. We loved every dress my cousin tried on. Laura was so helpful and offered just the right amount of guidance and advice. Her dress shop is adorable too!!! I highly recommend skipping the other places and coming straight here. read more

A Bride's Design - Bridal Near Me - Avon, Ohio

I have to share my terrible experience with my sister. If I could give this terrible establishment less than one star I definitely would. My sister recently moved from Arkansas to Cleveland and I live in Louisiana. I took a 300+ dollar flight to get here and spent almost 10 hours in the air due to bad weather. We were so excited to arrive at this shop and that's when our bad luck began. We were across the road starting our morning off with coffee at Peace, Love, and Little Donuts. It took us ten minutes to find this obnoxious place because there is NO SIGN. We had to call the phone three times to get an answer for help despite being within their hours of operation and at our appointment time. Finally, we realized it is inside an actual house. Fine, we were still willing to give it a chance. A man opened the door with NO SHOES ON wearing sweat pants and an old tshirt and his two dogs running around ON THE DRESSES. This was completely unprofessional and I am a dog lover. However, he admitted one of them was a puppy and we all know how puppies can make messes. After we were brought inside, the man left and we were alone in this strange house. There were only two rooms in this house with MAYBE 20 dresses total. Also, all of the dresses were TINY. Size 0s mostly with a few Size 8 and 12. So if you're an average sized woman, forget it. My sister is a size 14 and she could fit in ONE DRESS. We spent maybe 15 minutes in this store and now we can not get into any other boutique because we thought this would be a good place to find her perfect dress. This terrible shop ruined her first dress shopping experience and honestly the level of unprofessionalism and stark lack of courtesy was astounding. Do not go here if you are a self-respecting woman or bride. Do not go here if you wish to have a pleasant experience. I will not get the time back that we wasted. read more

So amazing!! Highly recommended! My friends and I went on a whim and it was such a good decision! Laura redesigned my dress to make it absolutely perfect! read more

Love Laura and her shop! After months of searching for a wedding dress and coming up empty handed Laura was able to take my minimal ideas (nothing strapless, A line) and turn them into the gown of my dreams. Her attention to detail, including reworking the neckline to cover a scar that I was self-conscious about, is truly one of her hallmarks. She created my gown, my flower girl's dress and fascinators for my bridal party, all from sketches. In addition, she altered my mother's dress and my maid of honor's dress. My family has also had Laura alter other special clothing items over the years and they are always overjoyed. High quality workmanship, attention to detail, over the top customer service (did I mention she came to my house to help me get my dress on?!) and, not for nothing, but a genuine caring person in Laura make A Bride's Design a pleasure to work with read more

This small, super cute boutique was by far the best bridal shop I dealt with while planning my wedding. I had purchased my dress from a different shop in Philadelphia and I was desperately looking for someone else to alter my dress. A Bride's Design came to the rescue; they did a fantastic job and worked within my short timetable. The also have some great options for accessories like jewelry and veils and the line of bridal shoes they carry are surprisingly comfortable. It's a small shop in the front of a historic Avon house (you park in the driveway) so they don't have a ton of inventory but what they have is high quality and reasonably priced. They carry a few designers as well and have their own line of dresses. They also custom-make dresses. The owner is so sweet and so helpful. I definitely recommend this place. read more

I talked with Laura over the phone before I made my appointment. She answered all my questions without judgement and did not have a problem with me sticking to my budget. She was very honest, and I was able to make an appointment with her within a couple days. Her dresses are well- designed and made (by Laura herself) with interchangeable straps and details. I picked out maybe 3 to try, and she brought be another two that I would not have noticed that totally fitted with my hippie-goddess meets art-deco style. She did not pressure me in any way and was very friendly an professional. Originally, I didn't have good luck or experiences at previous bridal shops, and was going to settle for an "OK" dress from JCrew to stay under my budget, and found this gem on a google search; I thought "why not?" Laura's designs surpassed the adequate designs I was considering at JCrew, and at a comparable price. The first dress I tried on was exactly what I was looking for, well actually, better than I had hoped. Bottom Line: I found my dream dress at an amazing price! read more

What a delightful shop. My daughter was there last night trying on wedding dresses. Laura made it a wonderful experience. She is clearly very talented but her wonderful customer service was greatly appreciated. read more

Laura is AMAZING! My dress was soooo beautiful. A lot of friends asked me that where I got this gorgeous dress. Laura, thank you so much! Plus, she is very nice and patient. Love my dress! read more

I second all the other five star reviews here. Laura was so great. She wasn's pushy at all. I tried on a dress and I asked her about making a dress for me and brought some pictures along. She was very helpful. This shop is too cute too. There are dresses and all sorts of other wedding paraphernalia that is reasonably priced. read more

I visited MANY other bridal shops in the Cleveland area before making my final stop at A Bride's Design. Right from the start, I could tell it was going to be a great experience! Laura, the owner, is so talented and designs beautiful dresses, and she is very flexible about modifying the designs to make them your own! She does not pressure you at all, just helps you and gives you suggestions along the way. The bridal gowns, accessories, and bridesmaids' dresses are all beautiful - I found dresses that I want for my girls and I purchased a dress for my rehearsal dinner as well! I am so excited and had such a pleasant experience - I highly recommend you skip all of the other shops in the area (unless you just want to get an idea of what you want) and come to A Bride's Design! read more

I love, love, love this boutique and the owner/designer, Laura. I visited three other bridal dress shops and at each, found one or two dresses that could work, but none that elicited the reactions I got from every single dress I tried on at A Bride's Design. I found the perfect dress and I can't hardly wait the six months it will take for the dress to arrive! I also bought a veil, sash and earrings from A Bride's Design. All beyond gorgeous. Laura gives Vera Wang a serious run for her money....she is an AMAZING designer and Ohio is so very lucky to have her!! I would recommend this place to all brides and bridesmaids....this should be everyone's first and final stop! Oh and prices are outstanding!! A++++++++++++++ read more

I can't speak highly enough about A Bride's Design. Laura is amazing, she is positive, fun, she has great dresses, will give you personal attention and (gasp) she LISTENS to you! I never felt pressured to buy anything that I didn't want. And unlike all the other bridal shops I went to she didn't insist that I try on a veil when I clearly said I don't like veils. She has a great collection of dresses and even made my mother's dress for the wedding. We both absolutely loved our dresses and when everything began to get stressful planning the wedding I could always count on Laura to be on time, produce what she said she would, and be positive. What more could you ask for?! Oh yeah.. the PRICES?! Amazing. I thought I would have to get a dress about 300% more expensive until we went to her store and I found multiple dresses I liked well below my budget. read more

I cannot thank Laura and "A Bride's Design" enough for making my wedding day a dream come true. The dress was EVERYTHING I'd hoped it would be! If you are looking for a quality gown, coupled with attention to detail, competitive pricing, and exceptional service, A Bride's Design is where you want to be. Laura thank you so much for your listening, and for your patience, and especially for familiarizing yourself with my wedding day "vision" and all of your creative ideas! A Bride's Design is truly a diamond in the rough. You are blessed to have such a true skill when it comes to bridal design. I highly recommend Laura and "A Bride's Design".

Follow up review. Recieved an email back and have been in contact with them since. Guess you could say I spoke negatively to soon.

This place is a must visit for all brides. The service was excellent. It was the only shop among the many we visited that will custom design a gown for you. The very talented owner, Laura, will sketch the gown of your dreams on the spot. There are also lots of gowns in stock to try on and choose from--all can be modified according to your desire. Prices are amazing and you can find a stunner for less than $1,000-1,500!! read more

I had A Bride's Design alter the wedding dress I bought at a different shop. From my very first appointment to my final fitting today, Erin and Laura were amazing!! They were very attentive, listened to and understood my concerns throughout all my fittings, and helped me pull my entire look together with the veil, hair piece, and jewelry. My dream dress now fits perfectly and I could not be happier with the alterations!! Also, if I hadn't gotten my dress at a different shop, I probably would have found mine here- their gowns are gorgeous!! read more

A close family friend recommended that we go to Laura for my wedding dress alterations and wow, I am so happy that I did! I live in Chicago so admit that I was a little nervous to have my dress altered 300 miles away. After the first round of alterations, the dress still needed a couple of minor adjustments. Laura took down all of my measurements, worked her magic, and the dress literally fit perfectly for my second and final fitting. Laura's shop is adorable and it was so fun for my mom, sister and I to look at all of the dresses and try on accessories. I found a beautiful pair of earrings, bracelet and headband to complete my look! I highly recommend Laura! She is amazing and will make you feel like the most beautiful bride there ever was! read more

I cannot begin to tell you how wonderful Laura is and how incredible she is as a seamstress! When I took my wedding dress to her for alterations I never imagined what a great job she would do. And her cost was very reasonable. Because of her I truly felt like a princess on my special day. Thank you Laura! read more

A Bride's Design is truly the best place to shop for a wedding dress! It has such a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The dresses are unique, one-of-a-kind works of art and the best part is Laura takes her time to listen to what you want and is open to modifying any dress to fit your vision. I was one of those people that never understood why people got emotional after trying on their wedding dresses... until I tried one of hers on! Almost everyone at my wedding couldn't stop telling me how lovely my dress looked- I felt like a queen. The look on my husband's face while I was walking down the aisle was just priceless! I was about to settle for a good but not-so-great dress in one of these other popular bridal stores until the Google angels directed me to her website. God bless you Laura... your creativity and artistry just blow me away, keep doing what you're doing and for anyone that has been struggling to find that perfect wedding dress, just give a Bride's Design a try. read more

Could not be more happy with the dress, the customer service, and how accommodating they were. Very nice and helpful and absolutely loved the design. Laura made our dream come true. read more

I recently had an appointment at A Bride's Design to try on wedding dresses. I found the perfect dress!!! Erin was so helpful! I showed her a couple of pics from Pinterest of what I thought I liked, and she pulled my top two favorite dresses. I tried on 6-7 but came back to the original two. She paired it with a beautiful belt and veil...and I LOVED it!! So happy with my dress and experience. Highly recommended if you are looking! read more

We met with Laura, the owner, late on a Saturday afternoon to look at wedding dresses. She was very accommodating and did not pressure us into making a decision. Many of the dresses she has designed and sewn herself, which makes them one of a kind. The prices are reasonable considering the quality of dressmaking and detailing. The boutique atmosphere and personal assistance make the shopping experience very special. I would highly recommend this shop to anyone. read more

do not go to this place they gave my niece a dress the the broken bustle then tried to blame her bridesmaids and she paid alot for the dress. they have horrible customer service. read more
