I had such a great experience at Donna's Bridal. From the moment I walked in Donna made me feel comfortable and listened to what I was looking for. She helped me find a dress that not only fit my style but truly fit what I was looking for, and that made all the difference. Donna is very honest and a little direct, but it's clear she says what she does because she genuinely cares and wants you to look and feel your best. I really appreciated her honest and it helped me make the right decision with confidence. She also mentioned that she does alterations and I'll definitely be going back for that. You can tell she has an incredible eye for making clothing fit so. I left feeling beautiful and taken care of and I highly recommend! read more

Donna's Bridal - Bridal Near Me - Northbrook, Illinois

She had a great selection, and the dresses looked very expensive, but had a very reasonable price tag :)

By far the worst bridal shop experience we've ever had so far. We should have known based on our conversation over the phone that this was going to be a terrible experience. This is the first and only time I've been disrespected at a bridal store. She was very rude/dismissive and did not have basic knowledge about wedding dresses. I asked to try on strapless dresses, she offered long sleeved options.... Even though we only spent 5-10mins in the shop, it was a waste of my time and energy. I would not recommend going here. I would rate this as 0 or negative stars, but that's not an option on yelp. read more

0 rating for Donna's Bridal. Donna is rude, unprofessional, a liar and greedy. I'm reporting her to the Chamber of Commerce and the Better Business Bureau. My son is in law enforcement and we will likely pursue legal action. After spending $2200 on a wedding dress for my daughter, Donna was unable to give us a quote for alterations and to add a few beads on the bodice. After repeated calls for 7 months, Donna never knew when the dress was coming in. Finally today, when picking up the altered dress, Donna charged us $1900 extra for the alterations and said it took her 40 hours of labor just to sew a few beads on. The wedding is in a week and we had no choice but to pay what she was asking. Please never go there! You will be ripped off and receive horrible service on top of it! read more

This is the worst bridal shop in Illinois. Don't even consider looking here for your dress. Donna, the owner is a complete scam artist and unprofessional. She consistently showed up late and canceled multiple appointments. She waited until 4 days before our wedding to release the dress and quoted us for two thousand dollars in alterations. She only previously advised of an hourly rate of 30 dollars an hour and advised she spent 40 hours working on the dress. She also added 1200 dollars to put beads on the dress. She was completely disrespectful on the phone when speaking of the price. If you are looking here for a dress please look elsewhere. This entire store is a scam. read more

I would 100% absolutely recommend Donna! Her work is gorgeous and she really goes to the ends of the earth for her clients! I came here for my wedding dress 3 years ago and she made me feel like a princess and the dress fit absolutely perfect! Because I loved her work so much, I came back to have her alter my bridesmaid dress for my brother's wedding- mind you being 8months pregnant at the time -she was able to alter the dress within a few days so it fit perfect for their big day. I also brought in another dress, with no thought it could be altered in a day, for my baby shower. Donna told me to go put it on and she told me she would have it done the next day! She really went out of her way to make me feel beautiful in the dress I never thought I would be able to wear. I received Numerous compliments on my baby shower dress (and my bridesmaid dress) and I will Absolutely be coming back for any and all alterations! Thank you so much Donna!! read more

Never use this place!!!! She over altered my daughter 's wedding dress 2 weeks before the wedding. Told my daughter she was fat. She's a size 6. We took the dress elsewhere to see if we could get it fixed. We couldn't because she cut off so much of the fabric. She wouldn't take the dress back or try to do anything. Horrible experience, horrible person. read more

Though this place had beautiful dresses. The customer service was terrible. She made the bridal party feel as if they all had bad opinions. She even said that our opinions dont matter and we are being selfish. Wouldn't ever come back, or buy from here! read more

I've never written a Yelp review before- EVER.... But I absolutely must spread the word about Donna's Bridal! Fate led me into this beautiful boutique (I saw an ad for a Pronovias Trunk show). Hesitant about any trunk show, I foolishly imagined some sort of "rummage sale". Upon arrival, my thoughts were instantly calmed by the attentiveness of the individual appointment slots Donna reserves for her customers. In the entire salon, it was just me, my matron of honor, my mother, and Donna. I had free reign to try on every dress in every style... Donna is an expert. Upon trying on the bridal gown that ended up being the dress of my dreams, I was feeling extremely disappointed- the gown was about 6 sizes too small. It would not even go past my hips! Instead of directing my attention toward a different gown, Donna observed the love I had for this partiular dress. I'll never forget her asking me to step out, and proceeding to tear the zipper open with her own two hands just so I could try it on and satisfy myself! Sure enough, this was the dress of my dreams. I instantly broke into tears, and Donna said, "I saw your face. I'll fix this dress later." After this initial meeting, everything continued to move flawlessly- fittings, phone conversations, veil choice, alteration appointments, etc. Donna ordered me the gown of my dreams, magically altered it to fit perfectly (like a glove) on my wedding day, and put her true talents on display. As a bride, I looked (and felt) like royalty. Donna's Bridal made all of my wedding dress dreams come true. Most importantly, my mother, matron of honor, and I entered that boutique as complete strangers to Donna, but we left feeling like family.... I could never write enough positive words to express my gratitude. Thank you, Donna's Bridal! If I could rate this boutique one million stars, I would! -Jenna Bruno read more

Donnas bridal was the first and last stop I made for my dress. I told her the price point I was looking at and even though it was on the lower side of what she had, she found an older dress that was absolutely perfect and even showed how she may be able to create a dress from a separately sold top and skirt. Really that is where she shines! Her alterations skills alone are well worth the price. My original date was april 2020 but with the shut down. I had to reschedule out to may 2021. We had already taken my dress in by March and with over a year to go, my now husband and I decided to start on our family instead of holding off for another year, so in April 2021 I had a two month old and a lot of baby weight I was not going to shake off in time. Donna took out all we had already altered and while she was always going to add sleeves to a sleeveless dress per my request, with post pregnancy boobs I needed much more support. She constructed an entire illusion neckline and added lace sleeves to match the dress. You would never have known it was added. Absolutely spectacular. I wore that dress as long as I could and did not want to take it off! For the price it was 1000 for my dress and 600 for alterations (originally just 400 but the illusion neckline needed additional 200 for material and work) read more

best place ever, Donna has all the newest collections, she really tries to help you out, and makes you look your best on your special day
