    This is a late review, but I recently went thru my wedding photo album with my mother during the holidays, and was just reminded how perfect my wedding dress was, on my special day in October of 2014. I got the pleasure to meet with Celine and Kimberly at Charisol while dress hunting... They were both extremely sweet, knowledgable, and delightful women! Charisol's dresses are so timeless and classic, and I really believe they've got everything for everyone here. Just tell them exactly what you're looking for and do come in prepared with photos from Pinterest etc. of your dream dress... Please stop by soon-to-be brides, you will more than likely find the PERFECT dress here, I sure did! Thanks so much once again Charisol!

    I've been to a lot of bridal shops, and I mean in all different parts of the country. I came here and stopped looking. The wedding was in August 2015 in NYC. I didn't live in NY at the time, but had family there. Charisol did everything possible to make multiple fittings work for me on my schedule -- whenever I came to town to see family and make wedding arrangements, I stopped by for another fitting. Service was always extraordinary. We went through small modifications each time, and on the day of, it was absolutely amazing! I had my gown preserved there as well, and it looks just so beautiful in its box.

    My last fitting before the big day @ Charisol Bridal Boutique!

    All of the staff at Charisol Bridal Boutique go above and beyond to assist you. I had such a great experience (especially with Celine and Kim) and would recommend them to any bride out there. One of the major things that I loved was having access to ALL of the dresses and being able to sift through them myself. I did let Celine know the style I was looking for so she could lead me to a few that had that style, but I had full range of all of them! With another shop I went to, we were only able to give them a style or "look" we were interested in, and then they pulled the dresses which wasn't fun at all. Everyone was SO patient and kind and I wish I could redo the whole experience over again!

    I am so grateful to have found Best Total Wedding Plaza. With only two months until my wedding day…read moreand a tighter budget, I didn't think a designer gown was going to be an option for me. My best friend discovered they were having a sample sale, and we booked an appointment during a weekend trip to New York. From the moment we arrived, we felt completely welcomed. We had the entire shop to ourselves, and Liz, who assisted us, was incredible. She pulled dresses that fit both my style and my budget, made us feel so comfortable, and created such a relaxed, supportive, and fun environment. To top it all off, I found the dress. It was nothing like what I thought I'd choose, but the second Liz finished helping me into it, I had that unmistakable "this is the one" feeling. I returned twice for alterations, and every time, Liz was just as warm, kind, and attentive as during my first visit. She truly made the experience special from start to finish. I can't say enough wonderful things about Best Total Wedding Plaza. They helped me find my dream dress and made the entire process feel joyful, personal, and stress-free. Highly recommend!

    Ok this is going to be a long one, but everyone has to know!…read more We worked with White Collections and had Sydney Cho as our day-of coordinator, and I truly don't think words will ever fully capture how grateful we are for her. Going into wedding planning, we thought a "day-of coordinator" meant someone who would step in on the actual wedding day and help things run smoothly. What we experienced with Sydney was something completely different, and so much more meaningful. From the moment we hired her about a month before our wedding, she stepped in with such care, intention, and control over every moving part. It felt like she quietly took the weight of the entire wedding off our shoulders without ever making us feel out of the loop. That last month before the wedding can be overwhelming in a way that's hard to explain unless you've been through it, and Sydney gave us something we didn't even realize we needed so badly, which was peace. Real peace. She created space for us to actually breathe, to be present, and to enjoy being engaged instead of constantly feeling stressed or behind. Her professionalism is on another level. The way she communicates, organizes, anticipates problems before they even exist, and handles every detail with intention is something I'm still in awe of. There was never a moment where I felt unsure or anxious once she was involved. I trusted her completely, and that trust is something every bride hopes for but doesn't always get. On the wedding day itself, I don't even know how to explain what she accomplished. We had 250 guests, no printed schedules or programs, and somehow everything flowed so seamlessly that not a single person was confused about what was happening or where they needed to be. That alone feels impossible, and yet she made it look effortless. Every transition, every moment, every detail was handled so smoothly that my husband and I were genuinely shocked. We kept looking at each other like, "How is one person doing all of this?!" She also went so far beyond what anyone would expect from a coordinator. She stepped in to help both of our moms with their dresses, helped with my dress bustle, ran around tending to our whole bridal party and was just there for anything and everything we needed, even when she absolutely didn't have to be. In those moments, she didn't feel like just a coordinator, she felt like a big sister. Someone who genuinely cared about us and wanted our wedding experience to be perfect. What stood out the most is that she didn't just "do her job." She cared. You can feel when someone is just executing tasks versus when they are fully invested in making your day perfect, and Sydney was completely, wholeheartedly invested. She protected our experience, our time, and our energy in a way that we will never forget. We haven't worked with other coordinators, but I can say this with complete confidence. Sydney is exceptional at what she does. She's the kind of person who sets the standard so high that it's hard to imagine anyone else comparing. Sydney, if you're reading this, thank you for everything you gave us. You made our wedding feel effortless, joyful, and completely taken care of, and that is something we will carry with us forever. We are so, so grateful for you!!!!

    I found my Maggie Sottero wedding dress at My White Wedding, which took me by surprise because (1)…read moreit was only my second stop on my first day of shopping for dresses, and (2) I hadn't expected to find anything in such a small boutique. My White Wedding is one of the tiniest shops I've ever been to (with the dressing area taking up nearly an eighth of the entire space) but Rebecca, the owner, has a decent selection with a trained eye for couture. My experience with her was fine, though certainly not the best. She is eager to say things like, "We do a really great job here" or "We know what we're doing" to get you on board with a sale but came off feeling pushy instead of warm. I ordered my dress in March for an October wedding, assured that it would come in by June or July, but it didn't come in until early September. The entire time, I received nary a call or any extension of reassurance from Rebecca, and anytime I called for updates, I was only told that it was on its way. Finally, when it arrived in early September, I was the one biting my nails nervously and calling to remind her that I needed to make appointments for alterations, and only then were we able to get the ball rolling. If I hadn't been on top of my game, I don't know that Rebecca would have reached out. Alterations appointments are only done on Tuesdays and Thursdays, which made things a little difficult to schedule, and since I really only had a month to get everything done, we had to really squeeze the appointments in to do at least three visits. The cost of alterations, of course, is an added charge atop the cost of the dress and I really had to haggle things down with Rebecca to bring the total amount down to fit my budget. Later, when I decided to add sleeves to the dress, there was an added cost of $179. So be aware - anything and everything you want to do with your dress will run you a pretty penny. Rebecca has partnerships with several folks, one of which is Eileen, who does all alterations. She was a true highlight of my experience with My White Wedding - sweet, patient, and expert with her work. She not only trimmed down my train extensively (a risky endeavor but my dress had a train that was too long for my taste) and made it look like it hadn't been retouched at all, but she was able to use the lace she cut out to add seamless straps after studying a picture I showed her of what I wanted. In the end, the dress turned out better than I could have dreamed. Rebecca also works with a hair and makeup artist and she tried to get me to have a trial with her during my earlier visits, but after reading some reviews on this Yelp page of her substandard work, I cancelled my appointment. If the wedding dress selection is already trimmed down, really lower your expectations for bridesmaids dresses and gowns for mothers. There are two or three racks of both, and the selection was quite poor. My mom was searching for her own dress for the wedding and quickly decided to go elsewhere because she could only find one or two that was "just okay", and both of them ran well into the three-hundred dollar mark. I feel torn about recommending My White Wedding to other brides. I loved, loved, loved my wedding dress and I adore Eileen, so I feel confident that anyone who finds a dress here will be in good hands with her, but I wasn't nearly as keen on my dealings with Rebecca, who made the experience feel cold, businesslike, and the nervousness of waiting to hear about my dress was certainly something I could have done without. If you plan on making a visit or if you've already purchased a dress here, I'd advise you to really be on top of your game so that your special gown will be ready on time.

    We were a little hesitant to visit here based on some of the reviews, but we really didn't have…read moreanything to worry about.

I will say I had a great experience with hair/makeup and dress but photography was such a horrible experience. We saw sample pictures beforehand and decided to go with Rahel but the pictures we actually got were no where near what we were given. I will preface and say that we were pre-warned that we were double booked that day and were not going to get the main photographer,however, I am not just upset at the quality of photos but just the lack of professionalism that followed. We ended up taking studio photos that day with the main photographer which actually were edited and came out nice, however, the pictures taken at the venue were terrible with the other photographers. Many of the pictures looked like we were inside a club due to horrible flash. Many pictures we were washed out with flash directly in our faces. Not just that but barely none were edited. We just got a photo dump of nearly 7 gbs of just raw pictures. We hired photography to get professional pictures but we just ended up with a photo dump of just raw photos and terrible ones at that. The worst part is I tried emailing the group about my concerns 3 times with NO response and am just amazed at their unprofessionalism with their clients. I guess once they have your money they just have no regard for you. If at least there was some dialogue about the situation I don't think I would have been as upset but the fact that before the wedding they were very responsive to the silence that followed afterwards is just what is very upsetting.
