I went to The Perfect Dress yesterday with my mom and had Ravyn as my consultant, and she was truly…read moreperfect for me. I was nervous to try on dresses as a plus-size bride, but every dress I tried on fit, or was even too big, which never happens when I'm shopping. I had no idea what style I wanted, and Ravyn guided me through different silhouettes and necklines until we found my absolute dream dress. We walked into the appointment not expecting to find anything, and I ended up ordering one that makes me feel beautiful. I can't thank Ravyn enough for making me feel confident and beautiful. She was attentive, asked all the right questions, and somehow narrowed in on exactly what I loved by reading my body language and facial expressions. I cannot recommend Ravyn or this store enough. Thank you for making this such a positive experience, especially when dress shopping was the part of wedding planning I had been dreading the most. Thank you thank you thank you Ravyn! - Lindsay G.

I loved the outdoor mirror and the atmosphere of the salon. I ended up saying yes to my perfect dress here, and the whole team has been super helpful and informative, from ordering my dress to answering questions about ordering extra fabric for a DIY veil and more. I will also be using this team for my alterations, as I fully trust them. It was so worth the hour-and-a-half drive. After going to multiple different salons, I could not recommend The Perfect Dress Sarasota more. 10/10 love, love, love!

She listened to all my concerns about my gown being too long and catching under my heels and was able to get the alterations done extremely quickly! The price was very reasonable for my wedding gown that had many appliqués and a delicate tule material, as well as the quick turnaround that she provided. Ida is amazing at what she does and the bridal boutique also had lots of beautiful gowns. I would highly recommend coming here for both wedding dress shopping and alterations! I had been so stressed trying to find a new seamstress after moving, and I'm so grateful to have found this shop!

I had a detailed and 4 layer mermaid dress that I had Ida tailor for me and she did the most amazing job!! She has an eye and attention for detail that never misses. If I didn't already buy my wedding dress coming to this boutique, I may have bought mine from their shop! They have the most unique and beautiful wedding dresses. Monica and Ida were such a pleasure to work with. When the wedding was over, I gave them my wedding dress and long veil to preserve for me and again they did an amazing job. If you're looking for the place to get your wedding dress and have it customized to you, look no further!! Monica's Bridal Boutique and Alterations is where you should go. I highly recommend 10/10!!

Wow, this is way overdue but Wendy saved my wedding! (Might be slightly overkill, but her…read moretremendous work in absolute record time, made sure I could spend my energy worrying about the many other things leading up to my wedding). Due to scheduling, I only had 3 weeks between trying on my wedding dress (bought off the rack) and flying out to my international destination wedding. Upon my arrival in Sarasota, I zipped my dress, and it did not go up past my waist--oh no! I went to another Sarasota tailor who saw the dress and me in it, and simply said, "No." I spent two days wallowing and online browsing when I went back to the internet to see if there was anything else to be done. THANK THE INTERNET FOR FINDING WENDY! I made an appointment via phone for later that afternoon and was greeted in her shop by the kindest, most easy-going woman, I could not help but feel more relaxed. I tried on the dress and came out of the changing room to explain my thoughts. Wendy quietly listened and simply said, "there are so many things we can do to make this dress perfect." Music to my ears! She gave me 12 days for any last minute slimming down and completely altered the bodice of the dress in something ridiculous like 2 days--I kid you not. The dress was 3 layers, the top of which was lace. To add room to zip, she hemmed lace from the skirt of the dress which she made into fabric panels under the arms on both sides, allowing more space and the zipper to zip. Wendy charged me an unbelievably reasonable rate for the level of imagination and skill that went into this work and I was thrilled to double her requested rate for the impeccable work and piece of mind she gave me during a very stressful time. Wendy, you are a godsend and I am so grateful for your time, patience, work and opinions. I only wish I could get married again to enlist your work again! You know I will be back the next time I am in Sarasota!

She is genuinely concerned with making alterations to perfection. She expertly tailored the elegant lace top of my ensemble that I'm wearing to our granddaughter's wedding. Her prices are SO reasonable that I gave her extra--she deserved more for such excellent work. She also shortened the mother of the bride's dress and is going to make alterations to the maid of honor's dress as well as the bride's dress. Very highly recommend Wendy and Serendipity Boutique!

I came here for my first in person wedding dress shopping experience with my mom and one of my…read more bridesmaids. I had a great experience! Our stylist Laura was awesome! She asked me about what I was looking for and looked at some of my inspiration photos of a dress and picked out 5 dresses for me to try on. While I was changing she provided bubbly for my bridesmaid and mom to sip on. It was a very intimate and personal experience as we had the whole shop to ourselves for the whole 90 minutes. Laura was very friendly and helpful with her dress selection and she even found a matching veil to my dress. She found dresses that matched very similar to what I was looking for around my price range. Thanks to her I was able to say yes to dress! I am very excited about my gown and coming back for a fitting and alterations in the coming months.

This bridal shop should never be on your list of places to visit! They canceled my appointment :15…read moreminutes before I arrived after having spent the entire morning getting ready and driving :45 to get there. I booked my appointment on line, because google, yelp & their website shows hours of operation as being open for business on Fridays. When they called me to cancel the appointment I was told the store is only open on Thursdays & Saturdays and has been operating that way the entire month of December 2025. The manager then tried to blame me (never apologizing!) when I was upset about the incredibly disrespectful treatment I was receiving, and not even recognizing my wasted time. Note the photo attached still showing the hours they are open which isn't even close to being accurate. And again, why was I able to book an appointment for a day and time when they aren't even open?! If this is the way they run their online presence, can you imagine the nightmare it must be to work with them ordering a dress and then managing its alterations!

I told her I needed a mother of the groom gown and she suggested I go to Camilyn Beth. She only sold bride gowns. So I walked around the corner and found myself at Camilyn Beth. She asked me what I was looking for and then pulled three gowns off the rack. I only went as far as gown number 2 and found what I was looking for. I wanted a classic style gown in a deep blue. Preferable a comfortable fabric that gave and didn't wrinkle very easily since I would be folding it up to take it on a carry-on to NJ. The gown was altered perfectly and the communication with the proprietor was excellent! I couldn't have found the most perfect gown. If you don't know already, these gowns are design by Camilyn Beth. Her fabrics are wisely chosen for ease of wearing and the designs are simple elegance. When I was in my 20s I would call it a "smart" looking dress because it was something Jackie O or Hepburn would wear. My tastes have always been classic, simple and comfortable, so this gown was perfect for me. All I have to say to Camilyn Beth is bravo! You hit fashion on the nail when it comes to classic elegance. I shall see you again at your new shop one day!
