I would highly recommend attending one of her pageant boot camps or go in for a private coaching lesson. Even just one lesson makes such a difference ! She also directs her own local pageants, which I have competed in and loved my experience.

Out of all the stores I visited, Berta provided by far the best experience. From the moment I walked in, everyone at the boutique made me feel so welcomed and comfortable. The entire team was kind, professional, and genuinely excited to help. I was lucky to work with Cristina, who was absolutely amazing. She is warm, patient, knowledgeable, and incredibly professional. She put so much thought and effort into helping me find the right dresses, gave honest and constructive feedback, and truly knew what she was doing. Most importantly, she never made me feel pressured or rushed into making a decision, even though my wedding was only five months away. Unlike some other boutiques, I never felt stressed or pushed to place an order immediately. The Berta gowns themselves are breathtaking. They truly know how to design dresses that make women feel beautiful and confident. With Cristina and the team's help, I ended up saying yes to not just one, but two dresses! I am so grateful for Cristina and the entire Berta team for making this such a special and memorable experience. Highly recommend!

The detail on every single dress?? Unreal. The quality, the fit, the way they hug your body and just feel on... you can instantly tell it's Berta. Each gown felt like its own moment and I didn't want to take any of them off Honestly, for the level of detail and craftsmanship, the value of these dresses is so worth it. Julia made the entire experience though!!! She was sooo sweet, patient, and genuinely cared & not in a salesy way at all. She kept bringing me back to "how do you feel as a bride in this?"instead of overthinking every little detail, even with so many incredible options, and it truly changed everything for me. I felt so comfortable and taken care of the whole time... like everything just flowed and came together so naturally I even was able to come back to have a "Yes to the dress" moment with my girls asking them to be my bridesmaids! Best service, best energy, and such a beautiful, unforgettable moment

I really had no idea what I would like aside from knowing I wanted lace, so it was a true exploratory appointment. From the very beginning, Capri guided me so seamlessly through the process and made what felt overwhelming for me become exciting, fun, and incredibly meaningful. She took the time to understand my style, encouraged me to try different silhouettes, and somehow knew exactly which dresses to pull. Her warmth, kindness, and genuine excitement made me feel so comfortable and confident throughout the entire appointment. Although I visited many other bridal boutiques afterward, I couldn't stop thinking about one of the gowns I tried on with her. No matter how many dresses I saw, I always came back to that one; it was my dream dress! Galia Lahav provides an exceptional bridal experience, but what truly made mine unforgettable was working with Capri. She is incredibly talented, attentive, and genuinely cares about every bride she works with. Any bride would be so lucky to have her by their side while finding their dream dress. Thank you, Capri, for making such an important milestone in my life so special. Finding my dream dress is a memory I'll cherish forever, and you played such a huge role in making that happen!

Beginning with instantaneous responsiveness when I first emailed, and ending with the detailed email for dress care and suggestions for photo poses that led to me being a phenomenally glamorous bride on my wedding day. When I arrived to her studio, Hanna was warm, welcoming and kind and immediately I felt comfortable. She showed me her gorgeous gowns, took photos and videos that she sent to me later so I could share with my friends and sister and get everyone's opinion. I fell head over heels in love with the palace gown. But. I am a inner city, Bay Area school teacher which means school teacher wedding budget. After falling in love with the gown (the sample fit me almost perfectly!) hanna offered to sell me the sample at a discounted price...needless to say..I SAID YES TO MY DREAM DRESS!!! Hanna and her seamstress made the small adjustments and I was able to pick up the dress just 2 weeks later. I took it home and 3 weeks after that, walked up the stunning staircase at San Francisco city hall next to the man of my dreams in the dress of my dreams. Hanna helped my quick wedding be full of glamour and shine. I felt like a showstopper in this gown and a friend of the designer. Thank you Hanna Hartnell!!

My idea of the perfect wedding dress changed as I got older. In my twenties, unfazed and emotional…read morebaggage-free, I thought about the fairy tale gown, complete with cathedral train to match a full-blown Filipino Catholic wedding. This was the gown that my talented Mother should have sewn for me. That dream was squashed when she passed away. And as an 'older bride', I wanted something simple and elegant. I called the Hanna Hartnell boutique, only to discover that bridal salons in the Bay Area do not carry her dresses. But they do have a "mail-order bride" program. I spoke to the designer herself, Hanna, who explained the process: With a $50 charge, three sample designs in sizes close to your basic measurements are sent to you. If you decide on purchasing a gown, the $50 deposit is credited against your account. Such a novel idea - trying on gowns in the comfort of your own home -- free of the hard sell, not competing for mirror space and sales assistant attention. I invited my assorted coterie of fashion consultants - Aunties, my sister, friends and cousins. I sashayed in my Dad's living room in three styles: Firebird, Peacock and Phoenix. Hanna's styles are glamourous, simple and sexy. I selected the Peacock dress - for its retro-glamour and its versatility for a beach wedding and for my wedding celebration -- a party weeks after our intimate ceremony. Despite the body skimming bias cut fit, the thigh-high side slit and the bare back -- this was surprisingly the dress I needed to work out the least for! And, when I asked my Aunties which dress Mom would have liked, all signs pointed to the Peacock. I loved the personal attention that I received from Hanna herself. I received several phone calls and e-mails from Hanna to know my style and status on the dress. What other salons could I have spoken to the designer? I'm not a celebrity, so Vera Wang or Monique Lhullier won't be talking to me. Two other bonuses: no alteration fees as the gown was made to my measurements that I faxed to her. It fit perfect. And although I was quoted about 4 months based on the general schedule, my gown was delivered in a month. When I placed the order for my gown, I got choked up. I wished Mom was the one to create my gown. I do think that Mom is very pleased that I selected a dress that wasn't mass manufactured but designed and sewn by artists like herself.
