Hands down a wonderful place to shop! I cannot say enough good things about Kelli. She is…read moredown-to-earth, no pressure, and genuine. Professional and sincere. (No fake excitement or scripted sucking up.) Her variety of styles is excellent. Her choice of designers is based on what not only the beauty of their designs but the customizing options and customer service. One dress style can be ordered a dozen different ways to fit the personality of the bride and make it one of a kind. Don't be afraid of the prices or the fact that the shop is by appointment only. Prices are on par with every other shop in town and you'd be surprised the extra bang for your buck that actually competes with most shops in the corridor. The appointment only is TRULY meant to keep all the attention on you. You get the whole place to yourself. Also! Girls of all shapes and sizes can find something here...my bride friend (who is probably somewhere around a size 20) felt so comfortable and truly appreciated her experience here. Thank you Kelli!

This place puts other bridal stores to shame, especially in eastern Iowa. Before going to White…read moreWillow, I had tried quite a few different stores in the area and left empty handed, disappointed, and self confidence crushed. As a last effort to keeping my business local, I made an appointment with White Willow. When I arrived, I was greeted by the store owner Kelli and she asked what type I was looking for and showed me the dresses. She made suggestions and let me and my group pick them out. The store was beautiful inside, with a very upscale feel. I was feeling unsure because of the sizing on the dresses I had already tried. I had already been to other stores where none of the dresses would zip or come close to zipping and was forced to come out with a completely open back and show people and look in the mirror and "pretend" that it would be perfect in another size. I was pleased to see that at White Willow the dress sizes started at 12 and went up, and had different styles mixed on the rack. You didn't have to go to a certain "section" based on your size. After trying on the 1st dress with Kelli, I knew this place was amazing. She made me feel so comfortable and I was soon able to relax and enjoy trying on dresses. And the dresses! Are gorgeous, quality gowns that are quite true to size. I am a size 14-16 and I was able to zip or almost zip all dresses that I tried on near that size range. And the ones that wouldn't quite zip, Kelli pulled together and made them feel like they fit. Out of 6 dresses I found my perfect one, and actually bought it off the rack that night because for once, it fit! Kelli was very professional, both in her appearance and knowledge for wedding dresses. She took her time to make sure I found what I wanted and needed. Appointments at White Willow are also private, so you have the undivided attention you deserve as a bride. AND After I said yes to my dress, we celebrated with complimentary wine! The experience I had at White Willow, is what every bride should get when looking for a dress. I simply cannot express, how impressed I was with this business and the service I received. I would highly recommend White Willow to anyone looking for a wedding dress, and go here first!

I had the best experience at Hope's Bridal. I live in Chicago and was going to be in town for…read moreanother wedding. After going to four other bridal shops in the last two weeks, I was more than ready to find my dress. I spoke with Jennifer on Wednesday and she was more than accommodating to make sure I was able to come in during a small window of time. I explained what I was looking for over the phone and my budget. I was going to be shopping by myself which made me a little nervous. When I arrived on Friday, Jennifer had already pulled multiple dresses for me in my price range and size. I tried on three dresses and honestly liked every single one. I ended up falling in love with the third dress and buying it. I was in and out within 45 minutes and made to feel comfortable the entire time. The price was unbeatable!!!!!! Jennifer was great with helping me estimate alterations and gave me honest advice that I trusted. I never felt pressured to buy a dress or pushed towards more expensive dresses. They had so many options and the shop was honestly a breath of fresh air after the experiences I had in the city. Highly recommend!!!

I came into the appointment still very much open to finding a dress after already having one great appointment prior to coming here. The saleswoman I was placed with was very cold and made the comment "You probably won't find your dress here" after showing her pics of what I liked within 5 minutes of being there. Throughout the appointment she was putting a big emphasis on certain things that may or may not fit me (I am considered "plus size" in many places) with a negative tone. She also made the comment that the dress I had tried on was about 10 sizes too small for me. I felt very judged and had to hold back tears at one point. I know what I look like, but I felt very defeated leaving the appointment. Their sizes on the floor did not feel as inclusive as I have seen most other places. Overall pretty disappointed I drove an hour to feel judged and the opposite of how a bride should feel when trying on dresses, no matter their size/shape.

My baby sister is getting married. Ahhh!…read more Heart to Heart Bridal was super responsive, easy to get an appointment with and very informative prior, during and after our appointment. Shelbi knew everything and listened to our bride's every comment-- every dislike, like and question. She was down to earth and made the appointment super fun. Even adding in suggestions for how to zhuzh up dresses, to make them more her style. Pricing was pretty reasonable. I very much appreciated she never once brought out a dress OUT of our range. She was sure to ask what the budget was to start the appointment and very cognizant of price and respectful throughout. Parking is a non issue. Hours are standard. 10/10 recommend setting up an appointment to find you (or your bride's) perfect dress.

It's also so cool that you can text them and get responses from real people. I recommend this place 100%!

Miriam spent about 2 hours and 20 minutes with us, and I probably tried on about 6 or 7 dresses in total. She was very helpful in talking me through what kinds of dresses I thought I liked, and allowed me to not feel too narrowed into one "style" or shape, which I appreciated. She made genuine comments about how a dress flattered and accentuated my body, she never made me feel 'bad' about my body or size. She asked questions about my fiancée and discussed how she wants her brides to feel comfortable, beautiful, confident, and that during the dress shopping experience, to consider how you hope to feel on your wedding day. It was a really great experience! I am an LGBTQ bride and so it feels very important to me that my vendors (?), or folks involved in the wedding are affirming and supportive, and I definitely felt that with Miriam! We also had a good conversation about how getting more options for plus size dresses is an area of interest for the shop, and how pleased I was with the selection they did have. I tried on dresses from size 16-22, I believe. I wear a size 18 in Old Navy jeans, if that helps...! I have not decided on a dress yet, but I will definitely be making a follow up appointment with Brides by Jessa to continue my search.

Please make sure you are aware of the hours that this place is actually open before you consider…read morerenting anything! You should also know that the hours posted are actually "suggested" hours, and they are likely not going to be there anyway. If you call, you won't be able to leave a message because the inbox is full. If you text or instant message they won't respond for days. If you need examples I am more than willing to show those to you. You will spend $100's of dollars and get zero customer service, and the week of the wedding find out that 75% of the items don't fit because they didn't measure anyone and then ordered things incorrectly. Then they will tell you that must come in THAT day or you aren't guaranteed the correct vests reordered (because they ordered the wrong ones in the first place). You will show up at 4:00 when they open but they will be closed (like the last 3 days you showed up at 4:00 - finding the store closed). You will text and IM, only to have someone show up at 5:15 to finally OPEN the store when they close at 6:00!!! If you enjoy extra stress on a wedding week, this is the place to go. If you could do without it (because you have enough things to stress about) PLEASE consider ANY OTHER rental shop but this one. You will regret using Celebrate QC, that is a promise! Kris Pauli
