I had shared my budget and style preferences clearly... but dresses shown were well above my budget and didn't reflect what I had asked for (examples like long sleeves when I want to show my traps? dresses 2x above my budget? No thank you). I'm so grateful my mother-in-law recommended Joanna's instead. I said yes to the dress because Joanna made the entire process feel easy, thoughtful, and completely stress-free. She isn't a salesperson -- she's an artist and a true expert in her craft. As she scanned the room for "the one", she actively listened to my vision and my budget. Every pull aligned with aspects of my style and was always within my budget, she didn't bring me anything above that budget. Her deep knowledge of alterations and construction also put me at ease instantly as a petite bride. As we tried on dresses, she clearly explained what could be adjustments and changes would support my vision. At no point did I feel pressured, judged, or made to feel "less than" for having a smaller budget. Thank you Joanna!!

    Hello Janene's Bridal!…read more A Yelp review could never fully capture the magical experience I had saying YES to the dress! Ever since I was a little girl, I dreamed about my wedding day and the moment I would find the dress to marry the love of my life in. Like many brides, I grew up watching Say Yes to the Dress, admiring the designers who make women feel like royalty--but I've learned that finding the perfect dress starts with the perfect experience. After getting engaged, my best friend recommended Janene's Bridal, and from the moment I called to book my appointment in December 2021, I knew something special was ahead. Walking into Janene's Bridal in Alameda felt like stepping into the show itself. The sparkle, the lace, the details--everything was absolutely magical. Then I met MAESA--stylish, confident, and full of personality! The moment MAESA greeted me with, "Hey babe, are you my future bride?" I instantly felt seen, celebrated, and excited. When asked about my dream dress, I described something royal, elegant, and fairytale glam. MAESA immediately guided me with expertise and care, introducing me to different styles while also suggesting a designer I've always loved--Martina Liana. Dress after dress, MAESA paid attention to every detail, making me feel so special and supported throughout the entire process. Then came the dress--a stunning Martina Liana gown with royal glamour, glitter, and lace. With every clip and adjustment, MAESA brought the vision to life. When the veil and bouquet were added and I walked down the boutique aisle, my heart completely melted--I saw myself as a bride for the first time. Ambience? Perfection! Customer service? Excellent! Pure joy? One in a lifetime experience! Thank You! From my first appointment to my final fitting a year later, my experience was 100% exceptional. Thank you, Janene's Bridal and MAESA, for making me feel like true royalty and bringing my dream to life

I chose Janene's Bridal (Alameda) for my very first time ever trying on wedding dresses, and it was wonderful! From start to finish, the process was seamless. Booking was easy, and the location in the strip mall offers plentiful parking, which made for a stress-free arrival. The boutique itself is clean, inviting, and easy to navigate, and the front desk staff was so welcoming. My stylist, Sabrina, was incredibly helpful and kept the vibe perfectly "chill," which I really appreciated. I was initially worried they wouldn't have enough options in my size, but that wasn't the case at all! I tried on 10 beautiful gowns and had a blast. While I didn't make my final selection during this visit, I'm excited to return for a second round. I'm leaning toward a new direction for my dress, which means--YAY--I get to try on even more!

A month prior, Jessica responded via email and was able to help fit me into her schedule. The shop had a clean and cozy atmosphere with variety of wedding gowns to choose from. Jessica greeted me and was attentive into helping me find the right dress along with help fitting me into the dress. I tried on at least 4-5 and chose the perfect dress! She also does hair and makeup so it was super convenient to book it all at once, not to mention her service is excellent! Note: Previous Customers/Clients have received a text notification from her stating that she will be "departing from this business" in case those don't receive or receive a slow response. Hopefully this helps.

    I was searching on Yelp for bridal dress rentals and found JC Bridal Boutique. I made an inquiry on…read moretheir website and scheduled an appointment to try on dresses. This was my first bridal shop. I looked through all of the dresses available and picked out a couple that I liked. There is a lot of variety here- from big poofy dresses to long tighter dresses and everything in between. Each one of the dresses are very beautiful and elegant. I fell in love with the first dress that I tried on, but wanted straps on them (it was a strapless dress). Jessica said that she can alter the dress to sew straps on for me, but suggested that I try on a couple other dresses just in case I liked those more. I did and it made me love the first dress even more! Jessica made me feel comfortable and was very accommodating. She did not rush me and allowed me to take all the time that I needed with every dress that I tried on. I've heard stories from friends that took up to a year to find the one. I am so lucky that I was able to find a rental that I love so quickly. I had to come back prior to picking up before the big day because my mom wanted me to wear something that did not show my tattoos and Jessica was able to still make it work for me in the same dress that I fell in love with! JC Bridal Boutique is definitely a gem!! Thank you Jessica!

    Overall I think Novella is not bad, but their lead alteration person is retired and while I was…read morecoming in, she was retiring. I ended up being charged more than the quoted amount and had to bring my dress back a few times because she missed some basic things. I don't think the person whos doing alterations there is still there so perhaps this review is quickly outdated, but I would say there's definitely not the kind of attention to detail I would have appreciated being at this price point and for this kind of thing where attention to detail for wedding dresses is so important. Every time I've been there, there's been some brides trying on beautiful gowns, so it seems like they have a good selection of dresses if that's what you're in the market for!

I had gone…read morebridal dress shopping twice previously, with two different entourages in two other cities, and I was feeling discouraged about what I wanted, and pleasing others. First of all, PLEASE make an appointment with them. They have a small staff, and are quite busy accommodating brides! I was incredibly lucky to be greeted by Seneca, who after listening to my sob story offered to squeeze me in for an afternoon appointment to try a couple sample dresses I'd seen listed on Stillwhite. She was such a sweetheart, and when I returned for my appointment, had the two dresses I'd requested pulled, as well as a few others of the similar style. Although I didn't have a group with me, Seneca was incredibly patient and supportive while I mulled over the dresses, and hyped me up to fall in love with my original vision. Some of the sample dresses being sold are quite affordable for the budget conscious bride which was a huge plus! Additionally, I've seen fantastic reviews about their in house alterations. Highly recommend whether you're lost in your wedding dress search, or if you want an exceptional experience picking exactly what you want!

My problem is with owners/employees who do not return a smile or meet my eye. Whether intended or not, this made me feel too unimportant to be bothered with, more like I was a pesky fly. To be clear, I have zero problem with business owners not speaking English, especially when a co-owner is fluent and handles communication. I am the grandchild of immigrants. I am also unhappy with a fluctuating price. Again, don't lower the price after I regretfully and politely decide to leave. Set a fair price to begin with, not a high price you then lower when a customer balks. Most of us are very uncomfortable about bargaining over price and discovering the first price given is a starting bid. Just sharing my opinion.

Marina works so quickly and efficiently that starting 3 months was actually a bit early- 2 months would have been sufficient for me. The first fitting appointment was a bit of a whirlwind so it helped to have additional set of eyes as well as pre-meditation of what I wanted. After the initial alterations, there was only one additional minor alteration needed for my wedding dress. She did an excellent job fixing up the beading, with the overall fit, bustle, and changing the lining, and her prices were more than fair. I did have to ask to try on my dress after the 2nd round of alterations, as that was not part of their usual process. Marina holds onto the wedding dress and steams it right before you pick it up, which should be closer to your wedding day, so plan accordingly. I took my reception dress home after the first alterations, but after practicing for our first dance, I decided I wanted some additional security to keep the strapless dress up. I brought it back to Marina, who easily added an elastic band and clasp to the inside, and I was able to dance away comfortably on my wedding night.

I ditto their story and feel like the wedding dress I just demanded back from her unfinished needs an exorcism. Please don't let her get her negativity on you and your dress before your wedding. She will probably be nice to you after she takes deep sighs and tells you how it's your fault, you bought the wrong dress like all the brides these days, it's too heavy, it's going to break her sewing machine, she has to charge double, and a multitude of it's your fault comments. I can't believe I paid $765 (plus a hefty $125 PREPAID consult fee) to have a simple layer shortened and then be told that I have to live with the way the dress looks. I've taken it somewhere else and they happily have told me it will be beautiful when they're done. I called her later that first day and said I was feeling kind of upset , and I said I wanted to come back and revisit it - there was going to be another consult fee. Isn't that part of what we pay for when you hire an Alterations person- Their time and advice? Seems she's only nice to you after she makes you feel bad, that's the only reason I can imagine for the positive reviews. PS my dress smelled like weird perfume when I picked it up (?!) so if you have an allergy to perfume you may want to let her know that! Ick. PPS she charges tax on her Service (which I questioned) , but you're not allowed to write Alterations in the Venmo comment. Kind of suspect.
