I had SUCH a good experience and Ava was incredible and so attentive. They had four chairs set up facing a stage so I felt like a model showing off each dress I tried on. Ava floofed my dress perfectly for photos so I could see the full vision of each dress, and then based on my reactions, she picked out more dresses for me. My favorite ended up being one that she picked based on my reactions to the 3 prior dresses. Can't recommend this place (or working with Ava) enough!!! read more

I'm not posting pics because my wedding hasn't happened yet, but this is the bridal boutique of my dreams! Anyone that has at least a budget of $2k for their dress, should absolutely come here. Owner Kim and daughter, Laura are SO personable and SO SO good at their job. They knew what looked good on me, knew what questions to ask, and made sure I did not feel pressured. It is appointment only and they only book one appointment at a time so you have the entire place for you and your squad. Thank you so much! I am still riding the high of how beautiful I looked in your dresses today. read more

Truly an amazing experience from my first email inquiry to the day I picked up my dress! I had been researching different bridal boutiques and shops around me and had been extremely overwhelmed until a coworker of mine recommended Sparks. I had been looking online at dress styles I was interested in and had emailed the company to see if they had one in stock. Kim, the owner, emailed me back letting me know they didn't carry that designer but they had very similar dresses in the shop. Using their online scheduling system, I scheduled my first bridal appointment. The boutique has ample parking and was pretty easy to find. Upon entering, I was greeted by Jenn who helped get an understanding of what dress style I was interested in. I was told to pick a handful of dresses and styles that I wanted to try on and she grabbed each one and placed them in a dressing room for me. I had the entire boutique to myself and had such an amazing one on one experience! She helped me get into each dress and we narrowed it down to two dresses. A big reason why I decided to come here was because i read reviews for other boutiques that try to pressure the customer into buying something and Sparks Bridal was different. I never once felt pressured to buy anything. They understood that I was just looking to see what my options were and to get a feel for what my style was. I was also able and encouraged to take photos of myself in the dresses to refer back on (there are other shops that don't allow photos) I was able to schedule another appointment and bring other family members to help make a decision Kim and Jenn were incredibly helpful with this process! & pickup was an absolute breeze! They supplied me with the business card of an alteration company they use and i'll be giving her a call in a few months! Highly recommend! read more

What a lovely boutique! The owner allowed us to stop in at spur of the moment, no appointment. She did her best to accommodate us and was so welcoming to our large party. She helped the bride to be, suggested dresses and did not rush us. It was such a lovely time and the bride did pick a dress and veil. Highly recommend! read more

Spark Bridal Boutique - Bridal Near Me - Cranston, Rhode Island

My daughter is getting married next October and we started looking today for wedding dresses. We went to Spark today for our first appointment in looking and she found the dress that makes her feel like a princess. Laura was amazing and she seemed to be a mind reader with what my daughter liked. I guess that's how it is when you work with bride's to be. As a plus size woman my daughter felt comfortable and in good hands. She made her feel so comfortable while trying dresses on. I want to thank Laura so much for the wonderful experience. She answered all our questions and helped us to the fullest. I recommend Spark Bridal for brides to be. Can't wait until next year. I will be sure to post a picture of this gorgeous dress. read more

Service, Selection and Value are top notch at Spark Bridal. Laura and her mom were amazing to work with.

Not knowing where to begin, I started looking at reviews for local bridal salons. Spark had the most positive reviews and I worried it was too good to be true. I showed up for appointment with my mom, MOH, and some bridesmaids and was greeted by Kim and Jen. We had the place to ourselves and lots of great options. I was worried about sizing or not being allowed to try on as many as I want, and let me tell you the staff did the most amazing job to make me feel comfortable, happy, and supported. Not once was I pressured or rushed. They give you privacy if you prefer it when changing but are right there to help if desired. I had the best time and honestly would highly recommend. Thank you Spark Bridal! read more

The ladies at Spark Bridal are incredible! They really understand your vision and make sure you feel great in anything you put on. They provide undivided attention. They are patient and kind. I recommend this place over any other place! They also have great selection of dresses read more

When I bought my wedding dress, I lived in Boston, but drove down to RI with a friend to check out this store because they had so many great reviews. The owners of the store are lovely and they really personalized the dress finding experience. I never felt pressured by them to find a dress (even though I did get my wedding dress here!), and they took the feedback I had from trying on dresses that I didn't like as much to finally match me with the perfect dress! They encouraged us to take pictures so we could see the dresses from different angles, and even called the manufacturer to ask if I could have one customization before I bought it. Overall my wedding dress shopping experience here was excellent and I would recommend all future brides check this place out! read more

As a plus size bride, I was absolutely dreading the wedding dress shopping experience. I had been to a couple other salons with pretty terrible results. Then I came here. I had the most incredible time trying on tons of dresses - the selection really impressed me. Kim and Laura were knowledgeable, kind, and fun! They left me plenty of time to try on tons of gowns and the dressing area is enormous. Kim helped me wobble in and out of dozens of gowns over my two appointments, always with a smile. They knew the process and how to read my reactions to guide me in the right direction, and which styles to recommend. The store itself is gorgeous and comfortable. I loved having my family and friends come and share the experience. They made buying a wedding dress one of my favorite experiences overall and I LOVE my gown. Highly recommended! read more

Spark Bridal Boutique - My entourage for my appointment! - Bridal Near Me - Cranston, Rhode Island

When I walked into Spark Bridal, I did not expect to have a wonderful and relaxing experience finding my wedding dress. I was lucky enough to fall in love with the first dress I tried on, and Laura and Kim were patient and kind when I insisted on trying on countless more to make sure, I was sure! I left feeling like a princess and they took the time to make sure I chose the right accessories to go with my dress. Laura and Kim, I cannot thank you enough! read more

Laura and Kim made my wedding dress shopping experience absolutely perfect! As a plus size, neurodivergent lady, I was very anxious about dress shopping. I was recommended to go to spark and I am so happy I did. The shop is comfortable and welcoming and the selection was great. Knowing I didn't need to worry about samples coming in my size was a breath of fresh air. They were so kind towards me and my family and never pressured me to go over budget or try on things I wasn't interested in. If you're thinking of going here, DO IT! read more

Spark Bridal has to have the ABSOLUTE best selection of wedding gowns. I had tried on too many gowns to count at three other bridal shops and was so happy to have found my perfect gown with the help of Laura and Kim. They were so attentive and helpful during the process and paired my gown with the most perfect cathedral veil. I was amazed at how many different gowns, veils, and accessories they carried. Thank you for making me feel the most beautiful on my special day. read more

You can't beat the experience Laura and Kim provide. Their expertise and love for the business are bursting at the seams. I was my sister's MOH in 2018 and she found her dress there instantly. Fast forward to 2023 and we were so excited to return for my dress shopping. Laura made me feel special at my appointment. She's attentive and personable and her knowledge of what she has in stock provides a personalized touch. They carry multiple gorgeous dress lines and some of which they've even customized. I don't think you'll find a lot of their dresses anywhere else in the area. It's a must when you're shopping for your gown! I'd also make it your last stop because you'll likely find exactly what you're looking for at Spark. It's really the best! read more

Laura and Kim are the absolute best! I felt so comfortable and taken care of throughout the entire experience. I found my perfect dress, and I thoroughly recommend Spark Bridal to ANYONE looking for a wedding dress! Also very affordable! read more

I can't describe how amazed I was by this experience - my first shopping for bridal gowns with my daughter. With every dress the owner asked, "What do you like? What don't you like?" Within minutes she appeared with one or two dresses that had what she liked, and didn't have what she didn't like. She knows her stock so well. She did no upselling. She brought out what worked, sometimes a little more, often a little less than the previous dress. We were hesitant to commit as it was our first stop and there was zero pressure. After a disastrous experience at a Fall River shop we fled back to Spark. The owner opened for us and we purchased the perfect dress for my daughter. My advice to any bride - if you find what you like at Spark look no further! Unparalleled attention and customer service, exceptional quality, excellent value. read more

Spark Bridal was the BEST place!!! Laura helped me find my dream dress and was very knowledgeable, accommodating, and patient throughout the entire appointment. She listened to my thoughts on each dress and brought in new dresses based on what I liked from each dress I tried on. The prices were extremely reasonable and there were so many styles and modifications to choose from. read more

The atmosphere! The selection! The service! All were *excellent.* Laura was knowledgeable, skilled at listening (to me ramble lol) and then pulling out the exact info she needed for expert recommendations. I walked away feeling fantastic about myself and my selection. She was patient and kind, and my whole group (six folks in total) had a great day. I cannot thank Spark Bridal enough! read more

My sister found her wedding dress here two years ago. Decided to start here since our experience was so wonderful. The mom and daughter who run this place know their dresses, know the styles and tailor your experience to what you are looking for. Today I found the most amazing dress, and it's honestly a work of art. I showed them an image off Pinterest of the style I wanted, and I was able to find something even more amazing. I'm so grateful for their time, expertise and effort. Thank you! I cannot wait for my dress to come in. read more

I came to Spark with my mom after having been to 5 other bridal stores and who knows how many dresses - I felt like I would never find what I wanted and had some unpleasant experiences feeling pressured to buy expensive dresses I didn't like, having stylists tell me dresses would look great if I took a few pounds off, etc. So I was pretty desperate when we finally came here, and we were blown away. Kim and Laura are incredible and so enjoyable to be around. Laura listened fo my concerns and immediately understood what I wanted. She made my mom and I relaxed and feel so much better about the process - and the first dress she picked is now my wedding dress! I could not recommend Spark more highly. They are lovely, responsive, helpful, and truly want you to have a good experience. Don't go anywhere else! read more

Spark Bridal Boutique - I can't show the dress just yet, BUT if you buy from Spark they do the cutest video with a sparkler to celebrate! - Bridal Near Me - Cranston, Rhode Island

Spark Bridal was the first and only place I went wedding dress shopping. I'm thrilled to have found the most perfect dress and actually a little sad that I don't have a reason to go back! Laura and her mom are so skillful in their guidance. I never felt rushed and they figured out my style and preferences so intuitively. They were patient with me as I chose between two gowns and I never felt pressured by time or money. It's a small boutique, designed so thoughtfully to make the shopping process individualized and intimate. Support local business!! I'd recommend Spark Bridal to everyone! It's way worth the trip. read more

I am not the bride, but have made a couple visits here with the bridge to be. It has been a great experience every time. First of all, I like to shop local. And this is a local family owned shop, so I was already excited before I even got there. The dresses were neat and organized. Earlier in the day we had visited another shop in Mass. but I felt like I was watching the staff man handle the dresses and you could see small tears. Yes, they are for purchase as is and marked down from original cost, but they could at least be gentle with them! Spark dresses all looked like they were in great condition. When we first walked in it looked as though there wasn't a huge selection and I was kind of worried, but there were more in the back. The staff was friendly, and helpful. And super patient, which is important when dealing with women who are buying an expensive item, and most likely the most important article of clothing they are ever going to wear. Laura and Kim moved really fast getting my friend in and out of dresses. (And I kind of enjoyed the mother daughter dynamic.) They encouraged her to try stuff she might not have thought she would like, without being pushy or forceful. It seemed she just wanted to make sure that the bride was sure, and that she didn't rule out a style without seeing it on her body first. The dress my friend ended up with was perfect, it had the pretty back she was looking for and flatters her body. I also LOVE THE SPARKLERS! We went back recently to look for a veil, and again Laura was great. She quickly pulled a few to try, and then when my friend questioned why she chose the veils she did, she pulled out the whole rack and explained why she pulled the 5 she did and showed a few that she didn't pull and explained why she didn't. When my friend wasn't sure about the veil, we were able and encouraged to leave and take time to think about it. The whole thing felt really personal. If I am ever in search of a wedding dress, Spark would be my first stop. read more

I came in with my mom at the recommendation of another bride. On top of being so nice, accommodating, and not pushy at all, the owner remembered the other bride clearly, which was such a great sign that she builds great relationships with her clients. This was one of my first bridal appointments so I didn't have a great idea what I wanted. My stylist (one of the owners) let me look at all the dresses and did a really great job finding other dresses based on the characteristics I liked. When the dresses weren't the right color or unlined, she'd let me know if they could be ordered in ivory and helped me visualize how they would look with a slip of fabric. The store had more than enough dresses for us to have options for basically any type of dress I wanted to see. The owner was so generous with her time and let me try on something like 10 dresses while we narrowed in on the silhouette and other details I liked, all the while giving me very good feedback about what she thought was flattering. Overall, I was really impressed and had such a great shopping experience at Spark! read more

I cannot say enough nice things about my experience at Spark Bridal Outlet. I had two appointments with Kim before purchasing my gown here. My mom and I were about 15 minutes late to our first appointment (and we were the last appointment of the day), but both Kim and Laura pampered us and took their time showing me my options (which were all lovely), never rushing us at all. I loved a gown I tried on, but was in my first day of shopping and was nervous about making a decision so quickly. Neither of them pushed me AT ALL to purchase then and there. In fact, I was encouraged to take time to think about it. After trying on countless gowns at other bridal salons, my mom and I kept coming back to the dress at Spark. So I booked an appointment to revisit "the dress", this time with a larger group of women. Upon arrival, Kim suggested that I try on a few other gowns as well, to give my entourage a fun experience. Totally unnecessary and very thoughtful. We ended with the gown I had returned to see, and Kim again took her time showing us different ways to wear it and accessorize it. A few important things to make note of that I think other brides will find helpful: 1.) Spark offers a very wide selection of sample sizes, so brides are able to try on gowns that FIT rather than being clipped in (or stuffed in) to gowns that do not fit. This is so so so helpful. I am a curvier bride (anywhere between a 12-16 in women's clothing) with boobs and a butt, and they had beautiful gowns that accentuated my curves rather than trying to camouflage them. I went to some bridal salons that made me feel badly about my size with comments like "Oh. We keep the larger gowns in the back away from the sales floor" or "We don't have much in YOUR size." There was not ONE mention of anything negative about my body at Spark. Only positives. 2.) The gown I purchased was chosen by Kim, within 2 minutes of our initial consultation. She said "I have a gown that would look incredible on you," and went to pull it right away. When my mom and I saw it on the hanger, we both thought it was "eh", but tried it on anyway. Kim was absolutely right. Her pick put all our picks to shame. I think this is so important in a bridal consultant, because we, as brides, are going to pull gowns that look closest to the pictures we've seen of dresses we like. Kim achieved the look I was going for in a dress that looked completely different than those I had been looking at. 3.) I was never ONCE pushed to buy a thing or "pitched" at all. In fact, I was told "Do not try to make any of our dresses into what you want. There will be a dress out there that is the dress for you, without having to completely change it." This was HUGE for me. And so appreciated. I am so glad the dress I fell in love with came from Spark. I really wanted to give them my business, and am so happy I was able to. Everyone close to me that knows about my shopping experience with this perfect little boutique is completely set on making this their first stop when they begin the search for their dress. I can't wait to back and put on my dress when it comes in! read more

This was my first stop in trying on dresses and I went in expecting to rule out of styles and narrow down my search a bit but ended finding my dream dream dress! Laura was AMAZING and I ended going with a dress she pulled for me based on my feedback from other styles I'd tried earlier in the appt! All around great experience, selection of dresses and consultants THANK YOU SPARK read more

I was quite nervous to go wedding dress shopping. I am a size 14 and body conscious I was not sure how I would feel trying on dresses. I am so glad that I decided to make an appointment at Spark! It was my first and last time at a bridal boutique and I would 100% recommend Spark. From the second I walked in the door I felt comfortable and at ease surrounded by the beautiful dresses and friendly staff. Kim and Laura were kind, patient, down to earth and listened to what I was looking for. They know their inventory very well and ended up finding me the most perfect dress! Spark should be your first stop when wedding dress shopping. I promise you will not be disappointed!! read more

Wonderful shop, great selection and the owner and her mother are so kind and genuine! No pressure, they focus on making sure you find the dress that feels right to you. read more

Laura and Kim, the mother-daughter team, will help you find your perfect dress. After that, they will help you get alterations done when the time comes and your dress will look perfect! This will be the least stressful part of planning your wedding! For me, finding the perfect dress for my wedding day was the hardest part! I lived in NYC at the time, but my family lives in RI and I really wanted to try on dresses with my family/friends around. This was the second weekend and the 4th or 5th store we had gone to, and it should of been the first store! There was a girl there before me trying on her potential wedding dresses, and they were stunning! She picked her dress that day and had tears coming down her face. The dress was a beautiful A line with lace long sleeves. But every dress she tried on was perfect! As for myself, I had already tried on dozens of dresses at other stores, but none of them seemed like the right dress. Some were also very expensive! Spark Bridal has wonderful prices for stunning dresses. The dress I wore on my wedding day, Laura and Kim had picked it out for me. It is so hard to pick a dress and visualize it on a hanger! They asked me a couple questions about the venue, and then bam! My perfect wedding dress. It was off the shoulder lace and had a mermaid fit. I wish I could wear this dress over and over. Wherever you live, Spark Bridal is worth the trip! read more

After trying on what it felt like a million dresses. I decided to listen to all the recommendations and go to Spark. All the dresses were beautiful!! I had a wonderful experience! Kim was such a great help :) I finally said YES to the dress!!! read more

I haven't been in yet, so I am going strictly off of phone conversations...what beautifully kind people these women seem to be! I found myself in need of a quick turn around for a first communion veil, the ladies that I spoke with (Benvinda and another woman) were more than happy to answer questions and sound so incredibly sweet. Looking forward to our appointment in two days! read more

I had the best experience at Spark!! We had the whole place to ourselves due to COVID precautions. Spark is family-owned and the team was so immediately welcoming and kind. They really listened to what I was saying about why each dress wasn't perfect and we found the right one. It was a wonderful boutique experience, I cannot recommend highly enough. read more

I had a FANTASTIC experience at Spark Bridal! The mother and daughter duo was more than accommodating for all of my needs! They knew exactly what I wanted, and we ended up creating a custom dress that I am absolutely in love with. They were so helpful, and I'm so glad that I found them! They have so many different styles from traditional to unique, and I would recommend Spark Bridal Outlet to any bride who is looking for a great experience when picking out the gown for their special day!! read more

I visited many, many bridal salons when trying to find my perfect dress. Kleinfeld, Alexandra's, Bridal Garden, and many more. None of them even compared to Spark. The store itself and the dresses are beautiful. Laura is incredibly helpful, patient, and kind. She is extremely knowledgeable and knew exactly what I needed at all times. I wouldn't go anywhere else! read more

Today was my first time dress shopping and wasn't expecting to love anything on the first try. WELL BOY WAS I WRONG! Being plus size, I had so much anxiety about dress shopping.

Amazing!!!!!!! Laura and mom are fantastic. Came from Plymouth Ma to come here. My daughter, the bride, from Maine. Well worth it. Patient, kind and most of they listen ...to your needs and budget.

What a wonderful experience! I came up to RI from NC to search for my daughters wedding dress. When I got to RI I did some Yelp research and found Spark Bridal Outlet. All the reviews were spot on! My daughter explained to Laura what she was looking for and she pulled three dresses for her. The first one she showed Sarah was the first one Laura thought of when my daughter told her what she was looking for. It was beautiful! The second dress was gorgeous but not the one. The third dress was beautiful and was a contender with the first dress. Sarah tried on the first again, then the third one and finally the first one again. Laura was extremely patient and accommodating! Not one ounce of annoyance. It was a wonderful bridal dress shopping experience. Needless to say my daughter said yes to the dress! Now it's one down two more daughters to go! Thank you Laura and Spark Bridal Outlet! read more
