I had the best experience with Kaylee at Sarah Seven. I showed up a little late to my appointment and she was so sweet and welcoming about it. I'm not someone who loves trying on a bunch of dresses, but she somehow understood my style instantly. She asked a few simple questions, pulled the perfect gown, and it ended up being the one. Thanks to her, I found my dream dress so fast and still made it to brunch. She made the whole moment feel easy, fun, and special. Couldn't recommend her more! read more

Kaylee was amazing to work with!! She made me feel amazing and comfortable, she listened to my concerns and interests, and ended up selecting the dress I said yes to! Thank you to Kaylee and Sarah Seven for a wonderful experience and for my wedding dress! read more

Oh my gosh - where do I even start with this place? I was completely overwhelmed at the idea of dress shopping, especially during COVID. While looking online at the different bridal shops in Chicago, I couldn't find a place that really had the style I was after (understated and chic, but still different from all the other 'simple' dresses out there). When I stumbled across Sarah Seven's website, I knew immediately it encompassed everything I was looking for. I was already giddy heading into my appointment, but Alana made it that much better! She was kind, welcoming, and provided honest feedback (which is really helpful when you can only bring one guest in with you). The tailoring team did a phenomenal job as well! Always open to suggestions while providing their own insight on how the dress should lay or fit. I recommend Sarah Seven to all my newly engaged friends, so I had to jump on here and let the rest of the world know too. The Chicago team is a dream, and so are the dresses! read more

Matthew was amazing! I had two appointments and got my dress for the big day (not posting that pic! shh), as well as one of SarahSeven's jaw-dropping "Before" collection dresses. He was so supportive and helpful. I forgot to wear my engagement ring to my appointment and started to cry (emotions amiright?) but he turned the tears into laugher and let me know it was ok. I can't wait to go back in a few months and see my dress again! Thanks for everything! read more

Sarah Seven Chicago - Matthew sizin' me up - Bridal Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

I had such an amazing experience here with Kaylee!! She was so kind and made the appointment feel so relaxed. I would highly recommend!!!

I had such an uncomfortable experience here. There was no AC which made for a sweaty and rushed try on experience. The best they had to offer was small room temp cups of water. It didn't feel personalized or special at all. The quality seemed overpriced compared to other places I shopped (including the dress I actually ended up picking). They also don't let you make changes like removing an accent/bow, which for the price is wild. Overall I do not recommend going here unless you are actually set on a specific design. read more

The consultant helping me felt very insincere. She asked me many forced "get to know you" questions, but I didn't feel like she really wanted to understand the dress I was looking for. We weren't aloud to look around at dresses and my family even got scolded and told to sit back down when they didn't realize this was the case. The dresses were beautiful and space is gorgeous, but the consultant ruined our experience honestly. I also was surprised that I never received any form of follow up to my appointment. I was told she would reach out with my favorite picks. Two weeks later and nothing. Disappointed by my experience, as two of my best friends highly recommended Sarah Seven. read more

GORGEOUS, PERFECT, AMAZING! Sarah Seven is next to none and Matthew was truly the best person to share our special day with! He was so fun, paid attention to every detail and helped me find my perfect dress (and we tried so many incredible options)! The store is gorgeous (duh) and the dresses were even more amazing in person, truly felt unlike any I've tried on so far! SO happy to be a sarah seven bride!!!! read more

Disappointed. I have been in Sarah Seven several times for friends/sisters dress try ons and also know at least 4 people (including a good friend of mine) who purchased their dress from Sarah Seven within the last 5 years. The previous experiences have been good, comprised of friendly/knowledgable stylists, in-house alterations, staff offering guests glasses of champagne/water and providing a comfortable atmosphere for the paid hour appointment. Unfortunately a recent appointment with a bride (I'm the maid of honor) was extremely disappointing. First, it was about 85 degrees outside and there was no air conditioning/air flow in the studio. We were so uncomfortable that half of us were standing. The new blue walls made the space feel dark and the try on areas cramped and dark - away from natural light. We were not offered water/champagne and the stylist made all of us feel rushed throughout the 1 hour appointment. The stylist did not: - offer any additional alteration ideas (mixing/matching different tops/bottoms) - have any dresses pulled before we walked in (even though the bride filled out a questionnaire) - appear interested in allowing the bride to try on additional dresses once she looked through the racks We felt uncomfortable (temperature-wise due to the lack of air) and felt as though the stylist wanted the appointment to end as soon as possible. Very unfortunate experience (compared to an amazing experience we had earlier in the day at a different studio) and I won't be recommending Sarah Seven to future brides (as I have done in the past). read more

I cannot recommend Sarah Seven enough! I fell in love with one of their dresses online and after searching in Indy realized I needed to make the trip to Chicago and try it on. The showroom is beyond chic and Alana made my experience so amazing. She worked with me to try on multiple options, showing me where we could do custom tweaks if I wanted. Also something that really set Sarah Seven apart was that they let you undress and put the dress on in private before coming into the room to fit it properly. It takes a lot of the awkwardness out in my opinion. The do in studio alterations so I have had to go back twice so far and they are quick and easy to work with. I cannot WAIT to go pick up my dress in a few weeks and to finally wear it down the aisle in a month and a half!! If you are looking for a modern but classic gown. Sarah Seven is the perfect place! ‍ read more

Matthew is an absolute gem. He has been incredibly helpful, accommodating and kind from the second I walked in for my first bridal dress appointment. He has really shown that his goal is to make me feel my best on my wedding day. Thank you, Matthew! In addition to amazing customer service, the store also has the chicest dresses, stunning interior and a great vibe playlist. Thanks, Sarah Seven!! read more

This is LONG overdue... we met with Uryah back in August and she was so wonderful in helping me pick my perfect dress. She knew exactly how to communicate with me in terms of being a guide, but also a confidant and a friend. We had so much fun with her! She was a great storyteller as well. When I thought I picked my perfect dress but was trying to talk myself out of it (because thats what we do when we find something without any flaws!) she had me shut my eyes and envision myself walking down the aisle to my fiancé. She even used my fiance's name to really personalize the experience. I work in luxury hospitality and Uryah is someone I'd want to be on my sales team! read more

I cannot recommend Sarah Seven enough - from the minute you walk into a showroom until the moment you walk out with your dress, you are treated like a queen. I found my dream dress on Pinterest and was ecstatic to find out that it was designed by Sarah Seven and that there was a showroom in Chicago! I am pretty sure I tried on every single dress in the showroom during my first appointment just to make sure I had found the right one. The Sarah Seven team made the dress buying and alteration process a breeze. I had heard that dress alterations can be tedious and cost just as much as the dress, so I was very happy that Sarah Seven offers to do all alterations. The in-house seamstress knows the dresses and is able to fit your gown perfectly. The Kir Gown was stunning, comfortable and fit like a dream on my wedding day. If you are lucky enough to live near a Sarah Seven showroom, make an appointment right now - you won't regret it!! Thank you to the Sarah Seven team in Chicago for making my dreams come true. read more

I recently had the pleasure of visiting Sarah Seven. The boutiques ambiance is sophisticated yet inviting, creating the perfect setting for finding the dress. I visited the boutique twice and Uryah was fabulous during both visits. Thoughtful and really cared about how I felt in each dress. Highly recommend! read more

My experiences at Sarah Seven have all been incredible! To start, the designs and quality of all of the gowns I sampled were all very flattering. They were completely in line with what I was seeking for my wedding day. All of the employees at this location have been to kind and helpful in scheduling, styling, and ultimately helping me make a big decision on what to wear for my big day! Not to mention, the store itself is so lovely and each appointment I've had has been such a joy! Very very excited to wear Sarah Seven on my wedding read more

Sarah Seven Chicago - Celebratory champagne after choosing my gown! - Bridal Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

I came here with a friend to go wedding dress shopping, and it was a really wonderful experience. You get the whole space to yourself and the full attention of one person, which really makes you feel special. (Did I mention the champagne?) Lauren was really sweet, enthusiastic, and thoughtful. My friend ended up getting a dress that she would never have tried on because Lauren was able to discern what my friend was looking for, even if she couldn't articulate it herself. The dresses are, all things considered, on the lower end of wedding dress costs for this type of store. Two of the three racks are under $2500. The dresses all have quite an ephemeral look - some with lace or sequins and very flowy. The space is very beautiful, with really fun touches, like the awesome light fixtures. If you're a bigger gal, note that some of the dress samples are going to be a little awkward fitting. Since a lot of the Sarah Seven looks have a built in bustier, you might have to adjust the sample dress so that it fits your curves in order to really get a sense of how these dresses will look. read more

Where should you get your wedding dress you ask? SARAH SEVEN! I can't describe in words the amazing (and quick!) job they did in helping find me my dream wedding dress. I was planning a wedding in 8 weeks so needless to say I was on a time crunch! I tried on many dresses and Alana was so patient with me. Ultimately she suggested doing a custom dress as I wanted different parts from different dresses (didn't even know you could do that)! If she hadn't suggested that I don't know where I could have ended up. The whole team is amazing and the shop itself was adorable. As their tag line goes, Chic as Shit, couldn't be more true. read more

Sarah Seven Chicago - Bridal Near Me - Chicago, Illinois

My wedding was in May of 2022, and I got my wedding dress from Sarah Seven. It's taken awhile for me to get around to writing this review! My experience at Sarah Seven was unfortunately not what you dream of for your wedding. But let me preface that the first time I visited Sarah Seven and found my wedding dress, I had a lovely experience and really loved the dress, but unfortunately I felt as though I was misled in what the dress would look like once fitted. The dress I had chosen was Giovanna - a beautiful, fitted gown with plunging neckline and back. When trying on the dress, they of course did their best to fit it to my body. I loved the plunging neckline and backline but was conscious that I didn't want it to be spilling out of my dress from the bust on my wedding day - I was reassured time and time again that no, it would be completely flush to my body with no opportunity for that. I was like okay excellent! This is perfect, then! As my fittings came around, I was paired with a new seamstress at the Sarah Seven (they do fittings in-house). She was so lovely and kind, but unfortunately I could tell she didn't have much experience with this gown. I told her my concerns and how I was told the bust would be flush to my body, and I went back for multiple fittings and every time something was wrong, both in the bust and then mistakes she had made in fitting it to my hips. Their head seamstress then got called in to help fix some of the issues, and she told me that actually no, this gown was not intended to sit flush on the body, it was supposed to be loose, etc. Needless to say I was extremely upset by this and being told so many different, wrong things about the dress. While I loved it so much, I had chosen it for the reason that through my fittings it would fit a particular way and that ended up being very wrong. On top of that, the newer seamstress told me how to use boob tape to tape everything up and the way she showed me I did on my wedding day and it ended up not looking great it some photos. The day of my wedding I felt beautiful, but the dress and fitting experience leading up to it was not what you would want as a stressful bride. I hope this helps other brides when choosing their dress - Sarah Seven in itself is great, but be sure to get multiple perspectives from professionals and seamstresses in the shop before purchasing. read more

I had the most amazing time trying on dresses with Uryah at Sarah Seven. This was my third shop in Chicago and was floored with each dress I tried on. I couldn't believe how each one made me feel and they were all so different. Uryah knew exactly what I was looking for after trying on a couple of dresses and we found the one! I was nervous to finally say "yes" just because it's a big commitment and she encouraged me to just walk around and chat with my mom and not feel rushed. I eventually knew it was the one and we obviously had to have champagne. My mom and I had the best, most memorable time. Thanks, Uryah! Last thing...I do wish they had more fans/AC, because with the heat outside and the nerves, I was pretty warm lol. It's no reason to not come though!! read more

I cannot say enough good things about Sarah Seven and her Chicago flagship. The dresses are magnificent; sleek, modern, sexy and down-right gorgeous! However, their customer service, that's a different story... oh, who am I kidding? It's the absolute best and second to none! After buying my wedding dress from them in the spring, I came back approximately 5 months later for my first fitting only to find that the dress was far too small. Undeterred by my tears and the imposing time frame, they magically got a second dress to the boutique within two weeks that fit like a glove, no questions asked. Each time I came to the salon for a fitting I felt more like a friend than a client, and they ultimately gave me the dress of my dreams. To Alana and her entire team - THANK YOU! Y'all are the elite, best of the best. And to anyone looking for a gorgeous wedding dress and unforgettable shopping experience - run, don't walk, to Sarah Seven. read more

Absolutely loved working with Matthew from the Sarah Seven Chicago location to find my dream wedding dress. After giving him a short description of my upcoming wedding and general vision, he immediately brought out a dress that I ended up loving and saying yes to! He was spot on with his selection and was very thoughtful and helpful throughout the entire decision making process. I highly recommend! read more

Sarah Seven Chicago is exactly how a brand house should feel, and working with Matthew just exceeded all expectations. Matthew's attention to detail & recommendations were wonderful. Excited to be wearing Sarah Seven next fall! Highly recommend getting on Matthew's books for anything bridal. Gowns, minis, & details at SS are to die for. read more

Sarah Seven is nothing short of amazing, and I had the best experience with Uryah as my stylist. The boutique is adorable and chic. I instantly felt very comfortable from the moment I walked in. Uryah made the process so easy, was so knowledgable and always put me at ease when trying on dresses. I am so excited to say that I found THE dress at Sarah Seven and I can't stop thinking about rocking that dress on my wedding day. Sarah Seven is perfection in every way! I would highly recommend every bride make a visit here - you won't be disappointed! read more

I had previously visited 6 other bridal stores and had okay experiences at all of them, but once I went to Sarah Seven I knew this time was going to be different! The music, the atmosphere, the dresses - everything was so relaxed and fun!! My sales rep, Uryah, was incredible as well. She listened to me, didnt rush me and helped me pick THE dress. Even though I went alone to this appointment, they still brought me champagne and celebrated with me once I said yes to the dress :) read more

Matthew is an absolute delight to work with. He is professional, knowledgeable, and down to earth. He made me feel completely comfortable throughout the process. I had three dresses picked out prior to the appointment that I was interested in trying on. After trying on all three and loving them all for various reasons. Matthew pulled an additional dress, he said, "this is the dress that combines all three dresses into one". It was exactly what I was looking for. I am beyond pleased. I'm looking forward to our tailoring appointments together. Thank you! read more

AMAZING!!! There are 10000000 reasons why you should get your dress from here starting with the customer service! I bought my dress pre-pandemic and it was the best decision I could have made. A lot changed over the 2 years and they never forgot about me. Liliana, my fitter, was on top of it and so helpful throughout the entire process. Delcia, the seamstress, was incredibly kind and had a client-first attitude. I knew I was in good hands with the two of them and honestly the entire Sarah Seven team. Their dresses are worth every penny. The quality is unreal and the style is unmatched. I highly highly recommend making an appointment. You will not regret it. Thank you to the entire Sarah Seven team for helping me pick the perfect gown and making the process enjoyable! read more

Working with the Sarah Seven team in Chicago to find my dress was nothing short of literal perfection. From the moment I walked through the door and was greeted with a big hug and champagne, to trying on all of her beautiful designs and finding THE dress, to my last fitting and saying goodbye- every touchpoint was special, memorable, and truly felt customized for me. The attention to detail in every dress (and at every fitting) and pure excitement and kindness from the team really made choosing Sarah Seven far and away the best and easiest decision of the wedding planning process, not to mention looking and feeling so chic in my dress on the big day! read more

I visited the store with my mom and maid of honor shopping for my wedding dress. The appointment reservation process was easy online. We arrived to the space a few minutes early. We walked in to someone else finishing up a fitting but no stylist to be found. After a few minutes, our stylist finally came over and got us started. We were not allowed to look at the gowns despite their being placed on racks arranged in the try on area. I explained what I liked and disliked and our stylist pulled 1 dress. I didn't care for it on the hanger but the stylist wanted to get an idea of my preferences so I tried it. I tried on a total of 3 dress with the same complaint about all of them. They're all made from a skin tight, jersey material that feels like the tube skirts all girls wore in the mid 2000s. With a 3500 budget, I was told I had about 5 choices and I was given 3 to try on. I'm confused how this was the case given the information advertised on the site. However I was highly disappointed in the quality of these gowns given the high price points. All 3 that I tried were at or slightly over my budget. At other shops the gowns in my price range offered better construction that justified their respective prices. Sadly not the case here. To top it all off, there was no air conditioning in the store and I was sweating trying on gowns in what had to be about 85 degrees. I ultimately purchased my gown at a different bridal shop. read more

Sarah Seven was my 4th and last stop of a long day of bridal dress shopping, and I was getting frustrated because I hadn't made a decision yet. I shared all of this with Matthew, along with the top contenders from other dress boutiques and explained why I didn't feel 100% confident about any of them. He listened to me so well, that the first dress he pulled out for me to try was the one!! I am so grateful for his expertise, he literally put the life back into me and got me excited again for this experience. Sarah Seven had some incredible designs, and I was so impressed by the quality of the fabric as well. Thank you Matthew and Sarah Seven for getting me to say "yes" to the dress! read more

Absolutely LOVE Sarah Seven Chicago and the amazing experience I had picking out my wedding dress! Uryah was the best and made me feel stunning. I'm so looking forward to my fitting and seeing my dress! read more

Found my dream come to dress here!!! I had a wonderful experience with Matthew. He is an expert on the nuances of each dress and the dresses he chose for me to try were each very different but I learned so much by trying each one. I felt so at ease working with him. The store is also gorgeous and comfortable. Love the mugs with ice cold water, comfortable couches, natural lighting, and huge mirrors. read more

Sarah Seven made my dreams come true with my one of a kind wedding gown. I was inspired by fairytale costume designs like the "Breathe" gown in the Cinderella adaptation "Ever After" and Sarah Seven's Goldie gown hit the mark! I saw it in a window passing by and knew I had to have it. It was gorgeous and fashion-forward and made me feel regal. The local Chicago team were very hospitable and knowledgeable and made the dress to my measurements and did all the alterations as well. All in all an amazing gown for a perfect wedding! (Getting to wear it AGAIN on my honeymoon as Beauty and the Beast for Halloween at Disney World was just the cherry on top.) read more

I can't say enough good this about sarah seven. I recently purchased my wedding dress here and had the best experience. My stylist Uryah was amazing. She knew exactly what to pick for me and made me feel so good about myself the entire time. Truly the most fun day! The quality of the dresses here are amazing and the material is insanely comfortable! So thankful I got to be a Sarah seven bride! read more

Matthew was amazing to work with! He didn't push me to pick something I wasn't comfortable with and offered honest feedback on the entire process. He made my entire Sarah Seven experience efficient, energetic, and empowering! I love the jumpsuit I got and cannot wait to wear it for my wedding weekend! read more

Found this place on IG , initially all dresses on their page looked amazing once I saw and tried them on I have to say that quality of the fabric is mediocre ,these dresses are made for skinny girl only and you can see all of your imperfections , most of dresses look the same and the most weird thing is you can't look up for dresses even f they are on rack in front of you all you can do is pick form the website what you like and they'll bring it to you (if the size exist ) I am an 8/10 size and literally all dresses where super tight and nothing special and prices are way over the quality starting probably from 3,300$ & up , and to top all this on you can't bring any Prosecco with you how boring , all dresses that I tried on were super dirty when I say super dirty GIRL I mean it ! Sweat stains , make up ecc , I was little disgusted to be honest , the staff was ok I've got Uryah she was just fine , didn't understand what I needed and wanted I guess , no emotions at all , I would say she probably was tired old was not in the mood basically do me a favor, and the guy I don't know his name extremely pre-period mood , in general as soon as we stepped in the Bible in the whole experience was not what I expected and I purchased the dress elsewhere, I highly recommend to try other stores especially the one in Ukrainian Village super affordable and beautiful dresses for every style and taste ! read more

This was my first and only stop when searching for my wedding dress! I fell in love with the dresses online and decided to make the trip to Chicago to check them all out. Lauren was AMAZING. She was so sweet and provided great advice and insight when choosing a dress. I ended up going with the first dress I tried on. Sarah's dresses are all so comfortable and chic. Even though it was just my mom and I in the store, Lauren still made me feel so special and was so genuinely excited when I decided on the dress. She was also very upfront with all the costs and explaining everything. Such a great experience! Can't wait to go back for my fittings! read more

Clorice was so helpful! The store was in a beautiful and historic Chicago neighborhood. Clorice, our consultant was engaging and professional. The decor was welcoming and classy. My daughter's experience was, as a Mom, everything I'd hoped for .. Highly recommend! read more

I'm still on a Sarah Seven high after visiting and ultimately purchasing my dress here yesterday. I'll be totally honest, the whole "dress shopping" thing was a part of wedding planning that I was not looking forward to! I booked an appointment here for one dress in particular. My consultant was Meridith and I cannot day enough good things about her! She was sweet, fun, knowledgeable and best of all... did not push me to try on anything that I KNEW I didn't want. I think she could read me well and knew when I was not feeling something and had me get out of it and move onto the next one! She was so helpful at guiding me to talk through things, what I did and didn't like about each dress without being pushy! She offered tweaks and additions that could be done to dresses if they were missing something I wanted! The space was beautiful yet inviting. We were the only group in there so it felt very personal and I could be myself. I follow sarah seven on Instagram and I was SO excited to drink champagne out of their infamous mugs!! (Total fangirl) When I had decided on my dress she encouraged me and my group to take photos and sip more champagne and even let me lounge in the gown for a liiiittle bit longer! I didn't end up with the dress that I originally went in for, but I'm so happy that I didn't! Meridith made sure to walk me through the payment process, fittings, and when to expect my dress. THEN sent me home with a #sarahsevenloveclub tote AND a mug! Eeeee! This place is JUST bridal enough, but totally tolerable for the girl who doesn't like the fuss and cheesy fakeness that often swirls around the wedding world. I can't wait to return for my fittings! read more

This place is has great modern dresses that still feel classy and elegant. It was a pleasure working with Liliana as she is an expert in making sure a dress will fit you perfectly. I'm giving the place 4/5 stars given the covid restrictions as compared to the other wedding dress stores I also visited as it seemed like it the norm to allow for up to three guests plus the bride elsewhere and this place only allowed two guests plus the bride which meant my poor friend was left standing outside in the cold. read more
