This was my very first bridal dress appointment, and I ended up saying "yes" to my dress here! From the moment I walked in, Sara was absolutely amazing. She was so welcoming, kind, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in making the experience special for me and my guests. Sara picked out a dress for me that I never would have imagined choosing for myself, and it ended up being the one I said yes to! She truly has such a gift for understanding her brides and making them feel confident, comfortable, and beautiful. I couldn't have asked for a better experience, and I'm so grateful Sara was part of such a special day. Thank you, Sara, for making my first bridal appointment so memorable! read more

Shamim is so talented and really knows how to make a bride feel welcomed. This was my first ever wedding dress appointment and I couldn't have asked for a better employee than Shamim! I showed her my inspiration, she brought out dresses that matched that and based on things i loved or didn't love was how she would bring in the next batch of dresses, which ultimately let to my amazing dress that I cannot WAIT to wear next year! read more

Our experience at L'Elite was incredible! My daughter was treated like a princess every time she went for a fitting. The seamstress team is beyond talented. The tiny details they paid attention to were remarkable. They listened, collaborated and designed an idea that my daughter communicated to them that exceeded anything we could have imagined! Bravo! read more

Sara made my wedding dress shopping experience so special! She was incredibly knowledgeable and provided thoughtful guidance throughout the process without ever being too opinionated or pushy. I always felt like she genuinely wanted me to find the dress that felt right for me. What stood out most was how warm, supportive, and encouraging she was. She had such a motherly, comforting energy that made it feel like another family member was there with us. She was also incredibly kind and did her best to see if there was any discount she could offer within her ability to do so, which I really appreciated. I'm so grateful I had Sara to help me find my wedding dress and would highly recommend working with her to any bride! read more

L'elite is full of beautiful wedding gowns, but what made the experience so special for my family and me was how kind the staff was. We worked with Sara and not only was she so generous with her time, but she was also so genuinely excited for us to find our dress. She didn't push anything upon us. Using her decades-long expertise, she recommended styles that I initially didn't think would look good on me - and that I ended up loving. She is excellent at what she does. I will also say that the selection at L'elite is superior to all the bridal stores in Boston. They have a robust collection. read more

I had gone to several other bridal shops before ending up at L'Elite. From the moment I walked in I was so impressed with the overall vibe, aesthetic, and professionalism of the staff. I worked with Sara, of 28 year veteran of the industry, and I knew from that moment that I was in good hands. When I explained when I wanted, she was instantly able to find the perfect dress. She knows their inventory like the back of her hand and was reaching out to designers directly when there were parts of dresses I wanted to modify. I felt so taken care of in a way that I did not feel at other places. Sara never made me feel picky, high maintenance, or like I was settling on a dress. She reassured me that we would find the one and we did!! She never rushed me or pressured me to make a decision. Her experience, knowledge, and talent made my appointment so fun in a way that my other appointments were not. I found my dream dress at L'Elite and am already recommending them to all of my friends who are getting married. Plus, they do their alterations in house, so you know you're getting the same high level of experience and care throughout the entire process. Thank you Sara and L'Elite for making my dress shopping experience so special and memorable read more

Absolutely stunning bridal shop with wonderful customer service! I really appreciate that they require appointments in advance -- it makes the experience feel so personal, like the whole store is reserved just for you. They carry a great selection of dresses from well-known designers, though just keep in mind that prices can be on the higher side. Still, a magical place to find the dress! read more

We had an outstanding experience at L'Elite Bridal! We worked with Sara, who was fantastic. She was kind and patient, and gave us helpful and honest advice about dress fits and fabrics. She understood our vision right away and helped me find my dream dress! We tried the dress on multiple times in different lighting and with various accessories to make sure I was getting exactly what I wanted. Would highly recommend! read more

Valentina, is an amazing seamstress with a great personality and knowledge handling difficult task. Thank you!!

I had a wonderful experience at L'élite Bridal! The store is beautiful and has so many amazing options. I found my Pronovias dress and veil, and Shamim was incredibly helpful, especially in helping me stay within my budget. The service was great, and I highly recommend working with her! read more

I truly cannot even express how incredible my experience at L'elite was!!! Our bridal stylist, Sara, was so incredibly warm and welcoming from the moment we walked in the door and was so so patient with me needing to continue to try on my favorite 2 dresses over and over again. After visiting 4 bridal boutiques this past weekend, the experience at L'elite was by far the most elevated and I never once felt rushed or pressured to make a decision which is exactly what I needed. Sara made me feel so special and made sure my mom, grandma and best friends who came along with me were comfortable and happy as well. I ended up going to all 4 of my appointments and coming back to L'elite to say yes to my dream wedding dress - Sara even came in early just for me because they were booked all day!! 10/10 recommend if you're wedding dress shopping in Boston! read more

My experience at L'elite was wonderful! Shamim helped me pick out several dresses that matched my preferences. The first dress I tried on happened to be the one but Shamim still encouraged me to try on others so I was 100% positive. Once we knew, she spoke to the alterations they could do in-house to make it fit perfectly! Can't wait for my dress to arrive and continue working with Shamim and team! read more

this was the most special experience of my life! everyone was so friendly, and extremely helpful. my bridal consultant Morgan, was spectacular, i couldn't have asked for a better person to be there for me today. i showed her a few pictures of what i was looking for, and she nailed it on the first dress she brought out. i felt so special. they have alot of options, but they are very expensive (not that there's anything wrong with that!). this was my very first appointment to find a dress, and i didn't have to look anywhere else. so happy with this place. i would post a photo of my dress, but i don't want anybody i know to see it yet! i also am really happy that they didn't pressure you into buying a veil, gloves, etc. they dress you up in them if you want, but there was no force or pressure into buying them, and i liked that about it. 10/10 experience. read more

We had a wonderful experience at L'elite Bridal! The establishment was recommended by a dear friend who knows the best of the best of Boston. I joined my daughter, the bride, and her best friend on the dress shopping excursion. L'elite has a fabulously curated assortment of dresses, combined with professional and knowledgeable sales representatives. We worked with Shamim and she was excellent! Shamim was able to quickly determine which dresses would look best on the bride. We did not expect to buy the very first dress that she tried on, but that's exactly what happened. The process was that good at L'elite! In addition, Shamim made the experience fun and informative. Not only did we find the most beautiful dress but the experience was also the most efficient use of our time. It was an amazing experience! I would highly recommend L'elite! read more

"I said yes to the dress at L'elite and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the moment I walked in, Sara made the entire process feel effortless. She was incredibly attentive, patient, and genuinely listened to what I was looking for -- somehow managing to pull dresses I didn't even know I needed to try. Her industry knowledge is obvious; she has a real eye for what works and the experience to back it up. She made what can be an overwhelming process feel exciting and fun. If you're bridal shopping on Newbury Street, ask for Sara. She's the real deal." read more

The day you find your wedding dress is one of the most special days - and Sara made it all the more special on top of that. She is a true expert and has such unique insight and advice. She was even familiar with a dress not in store that was my front runner and was able to tell me how that dress wouldn't check my boxes like the L'elite dress would and exactly why down to the smallest details. She made me and my whole family feel so special!!!! read more

Look no further. I went so many places and L'elite exceeded by far ALL of them, the dresses, their beautiful showroom and most of all their incredible customer experience. SARA was an absolute angel and knew exactly what I wanted and honored my vision and tailored it me. She found the most PERECT dress that exceeded my inspo and expectations. She was so patient and kind and even stayed late for me to come back and was able to customize the dress and even FaceTimed the designer!! I can't stop looking at the pictures and the dress I found here exceeded all my expectations - go to L'elite and if you can work with SARA you are THE absolute LUCKIEST bride!!!!!! read more

Sara helped with finding my dress this past weekend! She was very kind, patient, knowledgeable, and comforting during the process. I went in with a few dresses I liked, including a top runner. Sara helped me envision a few different options with the gowns in store, all beautiful. What was the most helpful about Sara, however, was that she really took the time to listen to me and what I was looking for. She was so helpful that I was confident enough to order the top runner from their extensive online stock! Such a great experience and we didn't take up too much time (at least it felt that way!!) Excited to also learn that the tailoring is in-house! read more

I had a wonderful experience at L'elite Bridal while shopping for my mother of the groom dress. I went to many places in both Boston and NYC. I worked with Violette and found her incredibly professional, kind and her level of service exceeded my expectations. Highly recommend the boutique for not only weddings but any special occasion. Maria Salvatore read more

Isabel was so considerate and helpful when I needed to get a new wedding dress 4 months before my wedding. Unlike other stores, you can walk around their stock rooms to see all the options they have, not just the dresses they pull for you. I'm also so grateful they manage alterations in house so I don't have to go through the guesswork of picking a tailor. read more

I had an AMAZING experience at L'elite with Shamim. She helped me find the perfect dress and was so knowledgeable about several designers, fabrics, etc. I cannot recommend L'elite & Shamim enough! thanks for making this process so special. read more

Had a great experience ! Beautiful shop, gorgeous gowns, wonderful consultant. Request Mona she was FANTASTIC!

The experience shopping with Sara at L'elite bridal was so joyful. She was so helpful with answering questions we have and used our feedback to get exactly what we wanted. read more

THE ABSOLUTE BEST EXPERIENCE!!! I went in fully not expecting to buy a dress as it was my first time shopping and I was only going to see a specific trunk show, and I ended up finding my dress! Sara was so unbelievably helpful and guided me through selecting dresses to try on and let me try on and re-try on dresses for hours. She had so much knowledge about the designers and the different customization options. She didn't make me feel pressured to make a decision whatsoever. Cannot express enough how great of an experience this was. read more

My experience finding my dress and getting my dress altered at L'Elite Atelier was wonderful. they were so helpful browsing the dresses based on what I wanted and with the alterations, they made it fit to me perfectly and exactly how I envisioned it. would absolutely recommend getting your wedding dress here! read more

The team at L'elite is incredible. The woman know their designers, are outstanding helping with fit and did not oversell or push. Our experience from try on, purchase, fittings and pick up was so memorable. read more

***TW: please please do not come here to try on dresses unless you're okay with your body being negatively commented on by the staff*** They do have a vast array of (expensive but beautiful) wedding dresses here. I was a first-timer, and they did a poor job of explaining the different types of dresses and name-dropped plenty of designers in a jargoney fashion that was difficult to keep up with. The very first dress I attempted to try on (ever) didn't fit, to which the staff member said "you're TOO BIG to fit into that dress." Quite the way to start my wedding dress search, which I'd been so looking forward to. It was also super warm in the showroom & while trying on heavy dresses, and staff kept commenting on how sweaty I was. Lastly, we were being helped by two staff members who randomly kept leaving/switching off without warning & did not offer to help me get into the dresses so my friends ended up helping out (angels). Both staff members didn't seem to get along either which was uncomfortable for us on multiple occasions. Overall a horrible and traumatic experience and I left in tears. read more

Shamim was so brilliant! She listened to my vision and expertly pulled together a mix and match look from different designers to create my dream wedding dress. I wanted something classic yet with its own unique elements to reflect my style. Shamim made me feel confident to make the right choice on my first appointment. She was also very accommodating to both my mom and dad who came along for the appointment. With over a decade of experience in the bridal industry, and an expert in alterations as well, she made my experience truly wonderful. Thank you Shamim and the L'elite bridal team! read more

My daughter was married in early August. Every aspect of our year long interaction with the L'elite team was exceptional. Our sales consultant, Lauren, was incredibly knowledgeable and helpful during the selection process which took several visits. The Oscar de la Renta dress which my daughter chose for her wedding day was beyond exquisite. Additionally, my daughter decided to wear my wedding dress from thirty-five years ago to her rehearsal dinner. Lena and Faustina, from the L'elite alterations team, completely reworked the dress into a piece of art. On the wedding day, Faustina traveled to our home for final adjustments and to be on hand to steam the dress, bustle it and help with any dress emergencies. (Thankfully there were no emergencies.) This is a boutique of master craftswomen. They are couture experts and artists. Trust their talent, their expertise and their process. You will not be disappointed. My daughter and I are incredibly grateful for the experience from start to finish. It certainly exceeded our expectations, and we will cherish all the memories made during the entire process. Thank you Salwa, Lena, Lauren and Faustina! read more

I went to L'elite as my first stop, shopping for my wedding dress. I was blown away with my consultant, Sara's knowledge and expertise. I went in having no idea what I would like, wanting to try on anything and everything and she helped me to narrow down my vision throughout the experience! I found my dress! She took photos for me, got my mom and sisters involved, and kept my budget in mind throughout! I thought I had found the one, a dress I tried on for shape, significantly outside my budget, and she found me something similar, and even better under budget. This is the one I went with!! SUCH a positive experience. I would 100% recommend L'elite and I can't wait to go back for fittings!! Thank you Sara! read more

Dress never should have been ordered incorrectly. If the associate did not order the dress correctly, that is not my fault. No we are sorry, no compensation offered. Received just an oops not enough time to remake the dress. Why did the other dress the associate had me try on for a reference , by same designer in a similar cut, fit me almost like a glove? why was i told no charge for the additional flowers down back and then was charged. Again after i got angry charges were dropped. Yes, i was traveling.... I came a month, not two weeks, before the wedding. I had to fight for everything. Lelite would not take responsibility for anything, until i got angry. Not a good way to do business. No customer service. read more

Sara was my stylist and she was absolutely amazing. This was the second bridal boutique that I visited and the experience here was unmatched. I said yes to the dress and Sara made me feel so confident in my decision. She listened to exactly what I wanted & did not want to waste anyone's time. She knew my exact vision and made it come to life. She made me feel so beautiful during the whole process. She was extremely professional and knowledgeable. 10/10 recommend seeing her here! read more

Outstanding! My daughter is getting married at the end of August and we found the most beautiful Ines de Santo designer sample wedding gown for a fraction of the price at Lelite Bridal on Newbury Street! We are a discerning group as my mother owned a couture bridal shop in New Canaan Ct for 25 yrs and I owned a beautiful bridal shop in Rhode Island for 12 years which I sold a few years back! After searching at 10 stores in NYC and RI and Boston we stumbled upon this lovely shop with the most amazing Staff and we got a 6000 dress for just 2000! All alone on lace the real luncheon lace and lining in silk organza absolutely stunning on my daughter! It was Christmas Eve and we didn't pay for the appointment and they didn't rush us out we spent 3 hours! They took pictures for us and were so nice we couldn't We have been to two fittings and the seamstress is flawless the best I've ever seen and so nice! My daughter felt like a princess! Can't say enough about this shop! Run to get your dress there check out the sample room! read more

I had a wonderful experience at L'Elite! I found my dress and it was so much easier and more fun than I expected, thanks largely to my bridal consultant Ali. Ali is talented and intuitive, and understood my style quickly. She also brings her experience in tailoring and design to the table, offering insights on fit, alterations, and styling points to make a dress sing. Though L'Elite's inventory skews very high-end, Ali respected my budget all the way. The dresses I tried on at L'Elite were of much higher quality than those I tried elsewhere at a similar price point. The salon itself is also beautiful, which made for a pleasant, memorable shopping experience. I am so excited to wear my dress... it truly exceeded my expectations! read more

All the dresses here are stunning! We had Isabel help us out, and she was really great. After trying on over 20 dresses at various locations, I'm happy I said yes at L'elite!! 10/10 recommend ! read more

I went to L'elite for my first bridal dress try on, I was not designated a specific consultant at first and had two different people trying to help me, which was fine but got things confusing when trying to explain what I was looking for. The individual assigned to me originally told me the simple dresses that I loved were something that "guests would be wearing to my wedding". It was extremely disappointing, as I stated consistently I wanted something simple. After an hour of trying on dresses, it felt as if they were ready to me and my party leave immediately. I did not get the magical, bridal, warm experience that others told me they had. I personally would not recommend this place as a bridal try on. read more

The selection here was very good. The consultant we had was very attentive. However it's very warm in here. Our tiny bride to be was sweltering in the fitting room. There was a fan which we used. Other than that, it's just wasn't that special feeling we were hoping for. Random consultants kept stomping into our room to ask questions of our consultant (maybe she was the manager). One even took a dress that our bride had selected as one of her finals and we had to wait for its return. Maybe my expectations were misaligned. I figured Newbury St = Platinum service. It was a Meh. read more
