She asked my daughter several questions then pulled several dresses that were on target. It was a very busy place. We had the 'rose room' in the back which was nice. It was lovely that they offered water and champagne to us. My daughter changed in a nearby room then had to walk to the 'stage' where we could see the dress. The lighting and mirrors were all nice. A similar style dress was a few hundred dollars more expensive here than in another shop we visited. Taylor did a nice job. She didn't ask as many questions as the other shop we went to but the dresses she pulled were right on. Parking in this area can be challenging but the nearby ramp provided ample parking. The shop was very cute and cozy. There were at least 3-5 groups in there so it was quite loud and busy. While we didn't get our dress from here, we had a very good experience. This shop was highly recommended by my daughter's friends.

You get to answer a few question in the beginning to help you out the day of. This shop has beautiful beautiful dresses. I loved their selection and fell in love with a dress here and my gosh I can't stop thinking about it. I had such a great team (bridesmaids) helping me out and honestly can't rave enough about this place. It's so hard picking a gown and having a stylist helping you out go though different styles is super helpful. I didn't feel pressured to make a decision then about the dress but I left feeling like I had found the one. Now I did continue dress shopping as I'm pretty early on my journey but know that when it comes to making a decision at the end it will come down to one of the dresses in this store ( not the one pictured here) Honestly trying on dresses can be uncomfortable for people that don't have the type of body dresses are designed for so I'm keeping that in mind. I'm petite, midsize, and on the curvier side so I already knew when I tried on dresses they wouldn't fit me completely or some wouldn't go passed my hips which was fine but I was still made super comfortable! To get park here you are definitely going to want to use the parking garage near by or try to find street parking but that can be a bit difficult. I had suck a great experience here and will be coming back again to try on the dress I fell in love with.

I had such a horrible experience with TWR…read more The dresses and space are beautiful. I had a great time until they dropped the ball. I received my dress 5 weeks late from their contractual delivery date with no explanation, proactive communication, or apology. I was assured that I would not need to rush order the dress. The dress fit me beautifully in the store, but I was encouraged to order closer to my listed size according to the designer chart, so I wasn't worried about it being late until I tried it on and it was 2-3 sizes too large. The tailoring appointments they offered were for dates before my dress even arrived. Being out of state, I had to bring my dress to another tailor that a friend recommended, who explained the dress would have to be recut and entirely reconstructed because it was so large. My measurements had not changed from the time I tried on the dress on at TWR 7 months earlier. The tailoring estimate was nearly 40% of the purchase price of the dress, so I reached out to TWR to express my frustration. They offered only $150 for a "rush fee" because it was late. They refused to acknowledge any accountability until I told them I lodged official complaints. When I finally spoke to Carmen, she accused me of sending fake pictures, my tailor of being dishonest, implied that I should be grateful because "some girls don't even get their dresses," and told me that I hurt her feelings telling her I didn't trust TWR to do any further business with or to stick to a contract when she offered to do the alterations in a few hours (the alterations took 3 days at my tailor). Their contract did not seem to come with any sort of integrity on their end. Your wedding gown is an investment and brides are under such tight timelines that you expect a luxury boutique to respect. Although many brides have had great experiences here, I can only speak for mine, and I would not trust or recommend TWR to do business with.

I had Liliya as my profesional stylist and she was simply amazing! I had so so so much fun! Usually going to a bridal shop can be daunting because I'm not the typical model size to fit into gowns given I'm petite, midsize and curvie can be tricky to try on dresses. Lili was so helpful and honestly she got me into a lot of dresses that I thought I wouldn't be able to fit in and I just couldn't help but laugh at how much fun it was trying on dresses. It was a workout but so worth it ! They have a lot of designer dresses and honestly a bit of everything !

I did not go with a dress from here, mostly because I liked others equally and they were cheaper. The staff was friendly, though I was surprised the attendant did not help me get into my dresses. There is space for only 2-3 appointments at once, so they do feel intimate. Good natural lighting for getting a feel for the dress. They are pretty strict on the 4 guest max rule. They weren't too pushy and didn't follow up after we left (which I appreciated). Overall I would recommend adding Che Bella to your dress appointment list!

My daughter wanted to be the third generation to wear the ivory satin wedding dress that her…read moregrandmother and mother said their "yes" in. So Evermore seemed the perfect choice because they specialized in vintage gowns, and I did not want it to be dry cleaned. The dress was in good condition but yellowed, (see before photos) and the store manager assured us that Evermore would be able to restore it to its original color. Sadly, Evermore was not able to do this and damaged the vintage fabric in the process. This was partly due to the work not being started in the timeframe promised (almost two weeks later than agreed upon) which resulted in rushed service and the gown being pressed while still wet with cleaning fluid. The once ivory dress now looked bleached white with ivory splotches and was dull instead of having a satin sheen. (See photo) The manager recommended the dress be processed a second time and then asked for another week after that. Without my permission, the dress was sent out and dry cleaned! The general manager said he thought the dress had grease stains and that he did not know the history of the dress. He could have known had he asked. The dress had been fully examined before any treatment, and there were no grease stains on the dress. The dress came back still splotchy and had been pressed on the right side of the fabric causing heat damage. (See photo) The store manager shook her head and said, "The best I can do is 50% off. I requested the full amount and was given that. Aside from not being able to restore the dress to its original color, the gown was irreparably damaged because of the way it was pressed. I expected that a company that specializes in vintage gowns would train their staff to not press a wet garment and press on the underside of the fabric. I know there are no guarantees in life and mistakes happen. What matters to me as a customer is the response when there is a mistake. I spoke with both the store manager and general manager, and neither would acknowledge that the gown was treated poorly. The general manager said, "What do you expect me to do? Clean the dress again? I have lost so much time and money already." I absolutely did not want the dress done as Evermore had not demonstrated its staff were capable of caring for an heirloom dress. I felt I was treated in a disrespectful way and was shown no empathy for such disappointing results. When I first brought in the dress, I was asked for its value. I said, "priceless." I was encouraged to write that on the form. Now the gown is no longer lovely or the heirloom we hoped to pass onto the next generation. We have less than three months to find a dress. What was supposed to be a joyful part of planning a wedding has been so heart breaking.

For the ease, price, and professional staff, I would definitely use Evermore again!

After several weeks of trying desperately to find something…read moreoff-the-rack to wear for my wedding in the Tetons, I finally decided that it was time to look into Joy. My mom and I walked into this gorgeous atelier, and were immediately greeted by an enthusiastic and effervescent Joy, who started asking me questions about what styles I like and what I feel looks best on me. Long or short? Strapless or sleeves? What style waist? I tried on a few of the stock dresses she has on her hangers (she literally customizes every dress to YOU, whether it's a custom style or not), and we started formulating an idea of what my ideal dress would look like. She ripped off sheats of organza and started wrapping them around my body, and suddenly a dress appeared! I had three more fittings with her, and each time I got more and more excited about what was taking shape. She totally supported my vision, guiding me along the way to ensure that I would look exactly how I wanted on my wedding day, and crafted an elegant, completely unique piece that reflected the atmosphere and aesthetic we were aiming for. Her attention to detail is impeccable (she even stitched into the dress my dad's initials, so I could feel like he was a part of things even in his absence). Her energy, her creativity, her ability to make a reality out of your vision is inspiring, and makes her creations stand out even more. Joy made our wedding even more memorable thanks to her dedication to her craft, and I can't thank her enough for it. She's worth every single penny (and, by the way, you'll EASILY spend as much money on a generic dress that needs alterations as you will on a totally customized dress that matches you, your style, your body, your aesthetic perfectly). I'll be back for more!

I was able to explain my thoughts and ideas for the dress in rough/basic terms (poofy here, flowing there, etc) and she just totally got it... making it EVEN BETTER THAN I HAD IMAGINED it myself. Its such an amazing piece of art, Ive decided to have it framed. And it wasnt just my opinion... even the professionals i had hired for our wedding (photographer, videographer... Best Of Winners in their respective wedding field, who have seen their share of wedding dresses), SAID it was the most amazing, unique dress they have ever seen.
