I can't say enough good things about my experience at Elegance by Roya in old town Alexandria. I…read morepurchased my dress there about 10 months before my wedding. During that time I fluctuated in weight pretty dramatically due to some personal life circumstances. It was too late to order a new dress size so the bodice of the dress had to reconstructed to a larger size. I was terrified that the dress would be ruined b/c if the invasive nature of this kind of alteration, but Farah did an incredible job & after it was done I could not even tell that anything had changed except that the dress fit much better. Later about 3 weeks out from the wedding, I lost a lost a substantial amount of weight and had to come in very last minute to have the dress taken in which was very stressful for me. Farah was able to get rush alterations done quickly and the dress at the final fitting (a week out from the big day) fit like a GLOVE. So grateful for her & happy I chose to get my dress at Roya

She was extremely friendly and professional without being pushy, allowing me to experience the moment with my family and friends without feeling pressured to pick a dress.

Will definitely be recommending this place to others! Thank you again!

I found Bridals by Natalie and decided to go in persona for an appointment. I was the only client they had booked for that hour so they were able to put all their energy and focus towards me. I felt very attended to. I also didn't feel judged by them for getting a wedding dress with only a few months left. They asked me what I wanted, and I told them, but they also had me try on many different styles which were all so beautiful, elegant styles. I found a dress that I adored, but it needed some alterations. The bust area was just showing too much. I asked them if they thought they could add more to the dress to cover it up. They said they could definitely make it work. After a few more consultations, we arrived at the final dress. We added sleeves with some extra material they had left in the store and the seamstress beautifully covered the front of the dress. It was so professionally done that it didn't even look like there were extra pieces added to the dress. I am so in love with the dress that I wore and I want to keep it forever. I am so grateful to the ladies at Bridals by Natalie for going above and beyond to make me look stunning on my wedding day. I will never forget your kindness and graciousness towards me.

I visited this bridal shop twice. My first visit was my first time in a bridal shop, and it gave me…read morethe space to explore my preferences. The second visit, months later, resulted in the dress that brought tears to my eyes. I returned because of the comfort and openness of the experience. Most of my positive experience was due to the amazing staff member, Lizzie. She lit up my world during the entire process. She not only assisted me with every try-on but also listened to my likes and dislikes and introduced me to other dress options and ideas. I even requested to work with her again on my second visit. My "Yes to the Dress" moment came with a dress I would have never chosen, but it absolutely rocked my world. I couldn't even try on another dress after that because it spoke to me so deeply and gave me a moment I never thought possible. Thank you, Lizzie, for your attentiveness and for creating that unforgettable moment.

Katie guided me through the entire process with such warmth, professionalism, and care. She was incredibly easy to work with, always communicative, and genuinely invested in making sure I felt confident and supported every step of the way. I was especially nervous going into my first appointment. I didn't have the traditional group of friends with me, and my mom wasn't able to attend that day, so I came alone and felt a little sad about it at first. But Katie immediately put me at ease. She created such a comfortable, welcoming environment that I quickly forgot my nerves and was able to truly enjoy the experience. Their selection of dresses was fantastic, and incredibly curated. To my surprise and delight, I found the dress during my very first appointment- the fourth gown I tried on! Katie's expertise and intuition were spot-on. What truly sets Clifton Bridal Boutique apart, though, is the level of care they provide. Katie even came in on days the boutique was closed so I could try on my dress when my mom was visiting. That kind of dedication is rare and deeply appreciated. Her communication from the initial appointment all the way through final pickup was flawless, and the bridal tailor they recommended was excellent as well. As a bonus, the town of Clifton is absolutely charming with lovely little restaurants nearby. It's perfect for celebrating with lunch after an appointment. I couldn't recommend Clifton Bridal Boutique more highly. If you're searching for a wedding dress and want an experience that feels personal, thoughtful, and genuinely special, this is the place to go.

She did this bc something she might see as an issue might not even bother me. Overall, it was a good experience and I'm very happy with the outcome. She made me feel like a queen in my dress and I cannot wait to show it off on my wedding day. *Parking: There's plenty of parking out front, and more in the lot across front the store. It is a very busy lot, and sometimes drivers from the Starbucks drive through gets stuck trying to leave. Id recommend that you park closer to the Bonchon. **Will post pictures of before and after, but AFTER my wedding in May!
