I had a deeply upsetting experience with this tailor during my wedding dress process for my…read moreNovember wedding. From the moment we arrived, she was unfriendly, dismissive, and surprisingly mean, even telling me that my bridal shower dress "wasn't pretty." Throughout the appointment she complained about having work to do, talked about how she "doesn't need to do this for work," and repeatedly mentioned being ready to quit. She also never responded to texts or calls, even when my mom reached out multiple times with important questions. Instead of creating a supportive environment, she spent most of the appointment venting about her kids and personal stress. What hurt the most was how she treated me personally. I was clearly nervous and overwhelmed, and she didn't care at all. Her tone and comments made me feel insecure and sad during what should have been one of the happiest moments of my life. I actually left the appointment feeling ugly, ended up not choosing the dress because of how she made me feel, and cried afterward. No bride should ever be made to feel that way. Overall, the experience was unprofessional, uncomfortable, and emotionally damaging. I truly hope other brides don't have to go through what I did.

If I could give more than five stars, I absolutely would. My experience at Diana's Bridal was…read morenothing short of incredible, and my stylist, Jenny, made it truly unforgettable. From the moment I walked in, I felt like the center of attention in the best possible way. I loved being able to browse the dresses myself--touching the fabrics, examining the details, and really taking everything in on the hanger before trying anything on. It made the experience feel intentional, personal, and exciting right from the start. Jenny immediately understood my taste and the vision I was going for. She listened so thoughtfully, guided me with confidence, and somehow even won over my mom--which is no small accomplishment! She was always on Team Me, following my lead, prioritizing what I wanted, and making sure I felt comfortable and confident every step of the way. And then came the moment. The second I put on the dress, I completely lost it--instant tears. I had been so worried I wouldn't "just know"... but wow, did I know. It was that overwhelming, emotional, once-in-a-lifetime feeling you dream about, and it could not have been more perfect. I was able to say YES to the dress, the pricing was exactly what I expected, and I left feeling beyond excited to walk down the aisle. I truly had the most marvelous time and cannot recommend Diana's Bridal--or Jenny--enough. If you're looking for a bridal experience that is personalized, supportive, emotional, and genuinely unforgettable... this is it.

The items took forever so when I called to follow up, rather than call me back, she e-mails me saying they will be ready next week, 3 days before the event. I go to pick up the favors, and they are completely different from what I ordered. So much cheaper looking. She may have forgotten about my order and just tried to use whatever she could find at the last minute, which was a very cheap looking lace (see photos). Once I mentioned that this was not what I ordered, her response was "Well, that's what arrived from Greece." Well, that's not my problem. That's YOUR problem. She tried to tell me they were still pretty. Um, well I don't care if you think they are pretty. It's NOT WHAT I PAID FOR. She said I could return them for a refund. Well, where am I going to find replacements 3 days before the event? She obviously knew I was stuck with them. Which is why she waited until the last possible minute to give them to me. Unprofessional, lying, scheming, and not even the least bit apologetic. And the fact that she tried to tell me that this cheap lace was "handmade in Greece" made me what to laugh in her face. Either she is delusional or she just believes her own lies. Run, don't walk, away from this place.....

As a Mother-of-the-Bride for the second time, I had a specific idea in mind for what to expect price-wise. I was delighted to see such intricate applique work and finishing on the dresses, and veils here, and my daughter had a hard time narrowing down her favorites to try on. We also appreciated the variety of materials, styles and sizes for many different body types. The consultant we worked with, Elena, was lovely and super sweet to work with. The shop has high ceilings with a lot of natural light and is very clean inside. The location is easy to find with parking, shops and places to eat or drink nearby. While my daughter is still making her final choice, all signs seem to be leading to "Yes to the (Flora & Lane) Dress!"
