This wasn't the first shop I went to but, but it certainly was the only shop I needed to go to. I can't commend Zoe and Monique enough for treating me with genuine care and truly making sure I had the best experience possible. The first day I came here, I was just expecting to get a feel of the atmosphere and set up an appointment. Not only was welcomed with smiles, they also accommodated me into the schedule that day due do having an opening. With that, the dresses they selected matched perfectly with my vision. I had made a follow up to have my family there with me another day, which was the last appointment of that day, and Zoe was working solo. She stayed as long as we needed and made we sure every detail was considered. That day I found and purchased "the one!" All the dresses here are stunning and there are an array of styles and designers that make Bridal Connection the full-picture quality experience, with unbeatable dresses. read more

As a plus size girl trying on clothes let alone dress have been horrible. But the ladies at bridal connection made my experience beautiful and happy, we even found my MIL a dress here. They let me video chat friends and family that couldn't make it. I will be attending 2 weddings mext year and will be a guest at one and a bridesmaid at another hope to find both dresses with them as well Price was very reasonable too. read more

To say I am impressed with my experience at Bridal Connection would be an understatement. Angelita was a professional & I just can't believe how spot on she was. From taking my measurements, to grabbing exactly what would look good even though I had no idea! Every single time I thought I was done there was another. She was extremely respectful of my price point. I cried from the moment I put on the first dress. This is the place & I found THE dress!! I can't recommend a better place. The expertise, compassion, love, and patience that Angelita had made all the difference. I am so happy I went with bridal connection. Thank you read more

I was so excited to come to this bridal store. It was my first time trying on wedding dresses and it was the worst experience. The associate that "helped" me was rude and disinterested. Nothing about my appointment was organized. I was shoved in a small corner with my group that came with me and felt the need to apologize for everything I asked for because the associate seemed irritated and not wanting to help. Such a waste of time and so disheartening on what should have been an exciting day that I had girls drive from all over Texas to join on. Tried on a dress I liked but couldn't buy from them because it was such an uncomfortable experience and myself and everyone in my party couldn't get out fast enough. read more

I said yes to the dress! Gave consultant (name started with an H) inspo and handpicked out the dresses that most matched what I was looking for and the seamstresses adding customization to my dream dress And super cute Halloween themed bride in the front! read more

Update: regarding the reply from the business owner. I read a long apology without accountability. I'm not a customs that is trying to be right. I was thoroughly factual but yet unheard, undervalued, and dismissed by the owners "apology." When an apology is given without demonstrating a genuine understanding of their impact, their words lose weight. But to no surprise, after that visit I told not so pleasing things about this bridal boutique. Hence the cycle of repeated mistakes and apologies that lack sincerity. read more

The staff are friendly and fun! The selection of dresses they have are of different varieties, so you have plenty of choices to choose from. They not only cater to the bride but they also have clothing selections for the groom and his groomsmen..as well as the bridesmaids. I loved the atmosphere here! I loved the service here and Me personally I LOVED LOVED LOOOOOVED the alteration Lady ( I hate that I didn't ask for her name). She was truly one of a kind! If you are in need of a dress for a great price , you should definitely check this place out. read more

Thankful for Bridal connection fitting me in without an appointment. I was able to found my dream dress the first day after a disaster with David's bridal loosing my first dress! Only complaint would be the in store tailors. I was told by a wonderful lady that she would be assisting me in the process but come to find out my next appointment, it was a new lady. I wouldn't have been upset but she was very unorganized & messy. I was told they both work together so I trusted the process. In the end, everything came out good. I just wouldn't recommend it after all. Happy dress shopping ladies! read more

Bridal Connection - cute said yes sign & badge - Bridal Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

I stopped by as a walk in and was happy to have been accommodated but I will say the lady who worked with me was not very pleasant to work with. She constantly disagreed with things I said about the fit of a dress or how it fit on my body. I explained how I wanted my dream dress to hit my waist in a certain way (which other dresses at other shops had) and she argued with me on where dresses should hit on a waist and where a natural waist was etc. it felt like everything was an argument and I would say this appointment was my least favorite out of 10 shops I went to. She was also diving way deep into personal matters like her other jobs etc which had nothing to do with dress shopping and felt awkward to listen to. It didn't make it feel like I was shopping for my dream wedding dress, but more like listening to a colleague at work. I also felt they were the most salesy of all the boutiques I shopped at. There were parts of dresses that I didn't like and instead of just moving on to a new one, I felt like I was it's constantly disagreed with. I will say the location did have some beautiful dresses but it was not a great experience. read more

I absolutely LOVED bridal connections! The dresses were stunning. I tried on the first 3 dresses that my consultant picked out for me were immediately better than any other dress I had tried on. I was easily able to find the perfect dress for me and had no issues as a plus/mid size bride. I LOVED my consultant, Holly, she made everything so fun and easy. I'm so happy I could find my dress!! read more

I would HIGHLY recommend getting your wedding dress here! Angelita literally picked my wedding dress on the first time! She was so amazing! Listened to what I wanted even though her job was tough cuz I threw like a million ideas at her! But I left with the dress of my dreams and for only HALF my budget! This experience was fantastic and I would recommend any bride to go here! read more

Omg this place is absolutely amazing! I said yes to the dress. They were so helpful and professional. I can't believe they have negative reviews everyone was so sweet. I'll post my dress after the wedding read more

This was my first time trying on wedding dresses, and I went in with very little knowledge, just hoping to find out what I liked. Angelita pulled some dresses that were close to my budget, and explained what features might make them cost more. She had me try on my favorite dresses a second time, which helped me realize we had found my dress. I left with a fully accessorized dress ordered, and I'm confident it will look spectacular on my wedding day! read more

Pros: Loved the dresses they had and selection Cons: Our consultant, Angelita, was very rude and pushy especially when we told her we had other shops to visit. Seating for guests was terribly uncomfortable and bride left feeling very disappointed in her very first appointment trying on dresses. The staff were not dressed professionally like all of the other places we went to and the building could be decorated in a much more elegant way. Do NOT under any circumstance pay for a private appointment, it is not worth it for any reason. We went to other places that didn't even require you to pay for an appointment and had amazing experiences. Also, to be fair we should have read more of the negative reviews because it seems like Angelita is just a bad sales person. read more

The experience and customer service was absolutely amazing! I was going to cancel my initial appointment because I thought I had found my dress elsewhere. However, I am glad I made the stop and should've made it my first. Zoe was so awesome and passionate about her job. Make this your first stop for dress shopping! read more

I found my BEAUTIFUL Morilee wedding dress here! Monica was extremely helpful, patient and kind. She listened to my concerns and never made me feel rushed or pressured. Input from Angelita was also extremely helpful. I originally went into with a specific style of dress in mind. They helped me find a beautiful dress that complimented my figure. I definitely recommend this place, these ladies know what they are doing! read more

Loved the experience!! Every staff member was just amazing and such a huge part of my experience. They had a beautiful selection of dresses and made sure to only pick those within my budget!

Thank you so much to the ladies at Bridal Connection for the amazing experience. read more

"We emailed our designer in Italy and they said they'd be willing to sketch the dress you imagine!" This is what Angelita Sorenson said on the phone after I told them I LIKED the dress but wanted alterations. This phone call began a 6 month journey of establishing a client-customer relationship with Angelita and Rafaela. They were there every step of the way interacting back and forth with me and the representative for the Nicole Milano line, for which they are an exclusive retailer in San Antonio. Not to brag but it must be said so the full effect of this shops dedication is understood, my dress and veil are one of a kind, custom fitted to my body and designed to my specifications. The dress and veil are now named "Celeste" after myself and will not ever be reproduced the exact same way. What else can a bride dream of? Their dedication to their clients was so visible that I trusted them and order my wedding dress off a sketch and waited 6 months for it. Once I tried it on I realized it was definitely the dress for which I had been waiting. I then hosted my bridesmaid proposal at Bridal Connection, where Angelita and Ralf had a bunch of bridesmaids dresses ready for them to try on. All my bridesmaids wore different styles of Mori Lee dresses, there's a stigma that bridesmaids usually hate their dress but mine ALL LOVED their dress. The entire Bridal Connection staff attended my wedding, Angelita arrived early (to my great fortune) and helped me get dressed for my wedding dress, was there after the ceremony to bustle my dress and even help me use the restroom. These ladies are the real deal. They love their customers, their brides, their bridesmaids and all of the employees LOVE working there. Bridal Connection is where I'll send every woman who asks me where to shop for the wedding dresses and bridesmaids dresses. read more

So let me tell you!!! Our bride came down from waaay west Texas. She bought her dress and everything else from up that way. And her alterations lady left her with a wrinkled dress ON HER WEDDING DAY!!! In a desperate rush to find my bride someone to press her dress, the first person i called was bridal connection and Miss Zoe said, "bring it in NOW!" We rushed the dress to her and she spent the next several hours steaming this dress to perfection! Thank you so much for saving my brides dress on her big day. You are AMAZING! read more

I had a great experience at bridal connections! My stylist was Alyssa (sorry if that's not spelled right). I showed her what I was looking for, but also told her if she had anything else she thought I should try, to pull it. I think I tried on under 10 dresses when I found the one. That doesn't sound like a lot but when your putting these bad boys on and off, it's a lot of work lol. I came on a Thursday, and though Alyssa was the only associate in the store helping us and taking calls I feel like we still had great service. She also chose a veil that looked fabulous with the dress, we were all happy crying! I let her know that I wanted to think on it for a day or two just to be sure and they were absolutely ok with that. We came back in a few days later, tried on the dress again to be sure. It was absolutely the one. The owner of the store (sorry I forget her name, she had bold eye shadow and a flower in her hair) was super friendly and welcoming, told us all the forthcoming details for the dress and fittings. I also like that the seamstress' are in house and have worked for 20+ years I believe she said. So I feel I'm in good hands. I can't wait to see how the dress fits when it comes in! Thank you team! read more

I am so glad I decided to go to this bridal shop first on my journey to find my dress. I ended up finding my wedding dress here and I couldn't be happier. Everyone was so kind and genuinely sweet. They care about your experience and the end goal. What I appreciated the most was how much information they gave me with each dress I tried on. Every style, material type, sizing, alterations, etc. every step of the way they took the time to explain everything to me. 10/10 would go back. Can't recommend enough. read more

Bridal Connection - I said yes to the dress! - Bridal Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

Ursala is great at her job. She knows what she is doing when matching dress to body and listening to what my daughter wanted . Although this is a small shop it was very intimate. Ursala had dresses picked for my daughters taste and ready to try on for her scheduled time slot. Compared to David's Bridal where we all felt like it was a Ross dress for less and rushed. Nothing was picked and ready for our scheduled time. Bridal connection is the place to go for exceptional service. Thank you read more

When I was dress shopping for my wedding I only wanted to go to Bridal Connections as they were the only salon that carries Randy Fenoli in San Antonio. When I went into the store to find a particular dress they had it, although it was about 12 sizes too big, they did their best to ensure I could see how great it would look when it was the right size. Sure enough it was perfect when mine came in. I loved my dress and am still swooning over how amazing it looked. The only negative comment/experience we had was that there was a miscommunication on the tipping of the consultant, in our opinion there shouldn't be an option to tip the consultant when checking out through the electronic card reader. The consultants make a lot of money and we shouldn't be roped into tipping an additional few hundred dollars due to confusion. read more

Started my journey here at bridal connection a few months ago, looked around many different bridal boutiques, however with the help of Andrea and Angelita. I made my way back to bridal connections and said YES TO THE DRESS I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this boutique they have 10/10 dresses & 10/10 service best in SA!! read more

was a wonderful experience! i loved that i was not limited to how many dresses i could try and the stylist continued to bring new ideas. i did not feel rushed or pressured in this process, truly appreciate the help and patience throughout the experience. i sure did say yes to the dress :) can't wait to get it! read more

I did not end up buying my gown from them but the experience was incredible! Staff was wonderful and helpful. It was my first time trying on dresses and they were so patient and kind and let me take my time to find my style. The prices were also reasonable. I recommend making this stop on your dress journey! read more

Had a great time shopping for a wedding dress today! We came in from Austin because Bridal Connection was the closest shop to me that had a dress I loved that I saw online. Angelita pulled a lot of great options for me to try and saved the one I came for until last, saying I wouldn't want to take it off if I tried it first. And she was right! We ordered the dress then and there. Can't wait to wear it on my wedding day! I really appreciated that Bridal Connection had a number of sample dresses available in curvy/plus size to try on. This made my shopping experience much easier and less stressful. Angelita was also so patient as I tried on a variety of styles and thought though options (lining, sleeves, veil/hair pieces, etc.), which helped me really visualize what I'll look like I when I get my dress. Thank you again! read more

These people were so rude! As soon as I walked, the first thing the lady at the counter said to me was "what do you want?" I told her I was looking for a dress. She immediately pointed me to the clearance rack and said "All of those are under $100." Her whole attitude was just nasty. I would not recommend this place at all. I felt like I was pretty womened! read more

I hate giving small businesses poor reviews but this was a horrible experience. The consultant working with me made very off color remarks about my weight and was basically shouting it across the salon. She didn't have anything kind to say about me and she made myself and everyone in my bridal party very uncomfortable. My appointment was 2 hours long and she was rushing me and told me there was basically nothing else to put me in and we ended up leaving after just an hour. If you are a plus size bride I recommend you skip this shop. Happy shopping brides ! read more

Arrived at 11:50 am for our 12:00 pm appointment. We entered to a less than welcoming greeting that they were not opening for another 10 minutes. From across the room, we were told that while we did not have to go back outside, they wouldn't be with us until noon. The stylist never introduced herself to those of us with the bride or asked who we were relative to the bride. We were calm, but she appeared frantic and bothered during the first half of the appointment. We were excited to come for the appointment and had chosen this store because they were an exclusive carrier of Mori Lee and Randy Fenoli. The store was also different from what I was expecting. We were seated in direct view of people being fitted by alterations, which was awkward. We were also in the same room and facing another group with an appointment at the same time. The toilet in the bathroom was the grossest toilet I have ever seen. I asked if I could show her some dresses we had picked out, and she told me, "No." I was so taken aback. As it turns out, she thought I was asking if I could pick out dresses. I had to explain that we had looked online and had a few specific dresses we liked. We learned she didn't have our favorite in the store at all, and she said, this one is $6,000, which isn't your budget. I would rate her customer service skills at a 0 out of 10. I would not recommend this store to anyone. There was also a mess of items hanging up in between the two benches we had to sit on. Overall, I think this shop has seen better days... look elsewhere. Edited to add, as it turns out, after looking at the website, we were helped by Angelita, the store manager. read more

Coming in I was very nervous I had been to David's bridal found some dresses but they were not me. Also the customer service there is not the best they need you in and out. Here at Bridal Connection that is NOT the case. I was welcomed in the best way showed pictures of what my ideas were on my dream dress. And I was able to get out of my comfort zone and find my DREAM dress. I am amazed at customer service and the selections they have and also being size inclusive is a HUGE plus! I will definitely be recommending friends and family here! Ask for Angelita, she is such a true ray of sunshine! read more

I went to several different bridal dress stores throughout my search for the perfect dress. This place is by far, the lowest ranked in my opinion. Staff was not friendly, and had little to no help actually trying on and fastening the dresses. When I initially called to make an appointment, I told the receptionist what I was looking for. She assured they had plenty of options. However, once I got there, I had only 2/3 to choose from. It was such a waste of time and I was borderline embarrassed for bringing my family/bridesmaids in there with me. You will have a WAY better experience at Swan Bridal or Bridal Galleria!!! read more
