I had a very difficult time with David's Bridal, and had seen a Facebook ad for Inspire Bridal. I…read morecan't begin to express how excited I was to support a local business after my horrible experience. Because a lot of brides were in a similar position, the owners decided to help COVID brides by having a $1k dress sale, as is, off the rack to take home. I emailed their store originally just for advice, and in part to vent. The owner, Brittany, was so compassionate and understood what I was going through. She let me know to email to make an appointment, and that they'd be more than happy to help me out. I decided to schedule my appointment a bit further out, on the off chance that my dress from David's Bridal came in beforehand. I'm so glad that we made the drive. Addie was so sweet and super helpful, listened to what I were looking for, and was patient while I was trying on different gowns. Even after buying my dress, the owner followed up with me and made me feel so appreciated and asked that we send pictures of our wedding. This is just the experience I needed, and I am so happy with the dress (will post after our wedding, can't spoil the surprise for my groom)!

I had my measurements taken at Sisters and trusted they knew what they were doing when they ordered…read moreme a size 8. When the dress came, it was massive (I wear a size 6) and had to be taken in 3" from the sides, 2-3"+ from the hemline, and the straps had to be moved. Basically, the whole top of the dress had to be redone. Since I live 2 hours away, I had my local tailor (who has very reasonable rates) do the tailoring and it cost $100. Sister's refused to reimburse me for the excessive amount of tailoring that was needed, even partially, and never acknowledged that they ordered me the wrong size. Furthermore, they did extra work on my sister's dress when she had it tailored at their store, charging her for work on the waist that was not needed (the fabric at the waist is sheer and falls A-line, so no tailoring was necessary). She too was ordered a larger size than needed (10) when an 8 would have fit her much better. Poor customer service, and what seems like intentional upsizing.

SHOULDNT EVEN GET 1 STAR! i went to go get my prom dress…read morealtered and i was told it wouldn't be too expensive because i didn't need much of an alter. she asked if i wanted bustles (not knowing what they were) and i said yes but then later on i ended up telling her that i wouldn't need them because my dress isn't in my way when i walk. i chose to not get them because my dress was already really expensive and i didn't want to add more onto it. it took her a couple weeks to alter it and when i went to go try it on, SHE ADDED BUSTLES AND SEWED RIGHT THROUGH MY DRESS!!!! i couldn't comfortably put it on without thinking i was going to rip something. she fixed it and i ended up telling her that i didn't need the bustles and i asked for her to NOT add them but she did. i brought it up asking for my $30 OVER CHARGE and Vallari the owner, said that i should've talked to her about it in the first place and should've of made her drive "all the way BACK to town to fix it" when she's the one who messed it up in the first place. she told me that she doesn't write random stuff down on a paper just to over charge people when i specifically told her to NOT add the bustles. she told me she won't be refunding ALL of my money because she used the materials and time. she asked for my venmo and RUDELY hung up on me when i was telling it to her. i messaged her my venmo and i ended up having to call her TWO times leaving voice mails each time complaining that she STILL hasn't venmoed me for the money she owes me. i called the store and she said that she venmoed me THIS morning after a week of her avoiding my calls and texts. I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE WHAT SO EVER. THE OWNER IS RUDE AND NOT POLITE AT ALL! THERE ARE SO MANY OTHER PLACES THAT WONT OVERCHARGE!!!

Not only did we plan a wedding in the middle of a pandemic, but we ended up moving across the country. They were extremely helpful throughout the entire process. Alexa bent over backwards to help us with getting all of our men purchase suits and making sure everything fit properly. My bridesmaids and "Mother of the Bride/Groom dresses looked gorgeous and Alexa made sure that all the ladies felt comfortable trying on dresses. I couldn't have asked for a better experience and expertise. Thank you so much!!

There are private suites and so much more room which allows for more comfort. The budget friendly options start at $800 (used to be $500 but prices have gone up considering the cost of everything going up which is understandable). This was the old The Woods gift shop. I'm so happy this business was able to secure a lovely location. Wishing you all the best! Will recommend to brides.

This was the first bridal store my daughter and I visited. The newly remodeled building was nice,…read morebut we were told to remove our shoes when we first walked in and not offered the slippers that apparently there were. I felt that we were scoffed at because it was just my daughter and I (not a huge group there to support). I feel like being offered a bottle of water would be a nice touch since you have to pay to even have an appt. I wasn't allowed to "shop" the store with my daughter and she was really rushed and pressured to try on dresses that weren't her style. We were never given a moment to even talk about the dresses privately, it all just felt very impersonal. She asked the canned questions of course, but it didn't come across as genuine. I had high hopes, but it fell short. Will definitely purchase from a different boutique.

She helped draw out sketches to help me get a better idea of what my dress would look like. She was very quick to response to emails and questions. Although I did not go with The Blushing Room, because of my very tight budget, I HIGHLY recommend going with Christina when designing a wedding dress. The prices are below the average wedding dress cost and the quality of each dress is outstanding. Designing a dress for such a beautiful day makes it even more beautiful and personal and you.

And I appreciate that, however I decided to come to you for my second dress and that was a complete disaster. After multiple failed attempts at coming to try on my dress because of your schedule. I ended up getting my dress the week of the wedding, after I dropped it off more than 2 months ahead of the wedding after you told me it would take you two weeks tops to get it done. I then paid you so I could try it on at home and the bottom was completly uneven. I didn't want to come with this publicly but you can't even return my text messages or my request for half of my money back. The communication is god awful and aligns with other reviews.

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.
