My family & friends had the pleasure of stepping into the Vera Wang bridal suite mid-search for the perfect dress. Julia was warm, welcoming and created a special, stress free experience as I processed the beautiful gowns surrounding me. I left knowing I wanted time to think about THE dress and reached out to Julia about a month later. She, with minimal notice, welcomed my friends and I just as she had the first time ... and the rest is wedding dress history! read more

After trying to find my wedding dress, my last stop was Vera Wang. I can't explain my experience in the store. The quality of the dresses indescribable. You will feel like queen in their dresses. It so simple but has a timeless beauty in very dress. I love the lace and silk that has been used for the dresses. If you are looking something very classy, unique but also rich look this is the right place to stop by. Really happy with my purchase. read more

We went into the store to look at shoes, and they were gorgeous. David was so kind, helpful, and a great listener. As it was a slow day, he even took us upstairs just to look at the wedding gowns. I've seen them on TV and in magazines, so I knew they were beautiful, but only in person can one see that they are exquisite. I'm even more of a fan now, both because of the amazing clothing and the impeccable customer service. Thank you! read more

Julia Chiri was amazing in helping me find the right dress. She asked me what I was looking for and what I was not. She gave a good understanding in the all the dresses that they had and helped me pick out the right one. It was my first appointment in trying on wedding dresses and I couldn't believe I picked one out in two hours. She didn't rush me or pressure me in things I didn't like. She was amazing and without her I wouldn't be able find a dress on the first time. Thank you so much Julia!!!!!! read more

Im sure many of you brides feel comfortable undressing in front of a male stylist... but I just can't do it. I'm way to shy! So I searched for Vera Wang's most recommended female bridal stylist, and I found her! Hands down had the best experience with Julia at Vera Wang!!! The quality and service is top notch, and I was made to feel very special. We were greeted by Julia and offered drinks immediately. Of course we opted for the champagne! We talked a little about the details of my wedding, and then discussed some possible dress options. I was so nervous about this appointment (I mean, it is Vera Wang) but Julia was so friendly, and fun that my nerves just disappeared. She guided me through my appointment and was so knowledgeable about the entire process. After trying on a few gowns that were all so beautiful, Julia pulled what ended up being "the one"! I can't thank her enough for the excellent service and memorable experience. I can't wait to come back and see my gown again for the fittings! I highly recommend you make an appointment here and ask to work with Julia, she's the Fairy God Mother of Vera Wang! read more

Let's face it. You can get a Vera at a multitude of places. So what exactly warrants the five star rating, and why would I strongly encourage any bride to be to book the Rodeo location as their first (and should I be bold enough to predict final) appointment? The people. Specifically, Julia Chiri. I cannot speak highly enough of Julia and her professionalism, customer service, and genuine passion for her role as a consultant. Being from the East Coast and a somewhat recent LA transplant, Julia acted as more than just a sounding board, but as a substitute mother, sister, and friend. She was beyond patient with me throughout the entire dress selection process, and never once pressured me to make a decision when I was torn between Vera Wang and a competitor's gown. She was an absolute dream to work with! I get it. Book the Monique Lhuillier, the Carolina Herrera, the Oscar de la Renta, etc. of the bridal worlds. It's a part of the process to explore and you will want to be 100% on your gown selection for your big day. However, don't be surprised when you begin to eat, sleep, and breathe only Vera. read more

If I could give DAVID a million stars I would! I've been a bridesmaid and MOH for 2 brides he has styled in Vera. I've never met a bridal specialist more dedicated & talented. For my best friend, her mother was passing away before the wedding could take place - David offered & drove her dress from Vera all the way to Palos Verdes so her mom could see it! If that's not above & beyond professional and kindhearted, I don't know what is! He has a true gift for getting to know a bride in a seamless, natural way throughout the first consult and becoming a valued mentor as the process continues. I couldn't recommend David more for his professionalism, keen eye for fit and style based on personality, and overall fun level!!!! read more

I walked into Vera Wang having no idea of "what kind of bride I was" or what I wanted in a wedding dress. I had a few styles written down in my agenda and I gave them to Julia who graciously pulled them for me to try on along with other dresses from the iconic collection she thought I might like based on the styles I chose for myself. She asked me questions to get a better feel for who I was and blew me away with her awesome suggestions and styling. When I thought I had narrowed my decision down to two styles, Julia invited me to the Spring/Summer 2016 trunk show. At the trunk show, I found the dress that made the decision for me and I placed my order. I absolutely love my wedding gown but what made my experience over-the-top was Julia's incredible customer service and my warm interactions with the other Rodeo employees and design team. Thank you very much to the BH Vera Wang team and especially sweet Julia who made my wedding dress shopping experience beyond what I could have imagined. read more

I had such a wonderful experience at Vera Wang in Beverly Hills! I'm the type of person who has had a file folder of ideas for their wedding since before Pinterest, a handmade wedding binder with detailed worksheets for finding the perfect dress two years before we're getting married, and asked her friends to be bridesmaids with perfectly color coordinated gift boxes---I'm neurotic. I had an appointment with Julia and from the moment I walked in the door, I felt at ease. I was greeted by people who fussed over me and made me feel like a bride---exactly how I wanted to feel when going dress shopping. The dress is such an exciting and important part! Julia was so knowledgable about all of the designs. She answered all of my ridiculous questions and made me feel completely normal asking them. I left with the dress of my dreams (well, I placed the order) and couldn't be more excited about it! I can't wait to wear my Vera down the aisle! read more

Vera Wang - Thank you Julia, Ashley, and everyone at Vera Wang for an incredible experience and the most beautiful dress! - Bridal Near Me - Beverly Hills, California

Even though the girls at the front desk were rude to my friend when she first arrived, my visit was nothing short of perfect. Julia was AMAZING. I wanted mermaid silhouette and she pointed out each dress that was the style and allowed me to try those on and then some! I initially went in wanting the Gemma (Hilary Duff dress) but I knew that the Ethel was the one for me. She gave me several options in sashes and veils and was SO patient! She is personable and just a gem. I am so thrilled to have had this amazing experience, it was everything I've been dreaming of since I was a little girl. We finally toasted with champagne and I left the happiest I've been since the proposal ;) read more

Vera Wang - Vera Wang perfection - Bridal Near Me - Beverly Hills, California

Planned a trip to La with my partner in the hopes we would find my dress. I had only visited two boutiques and one local designer and was hoping this would be the end of the road for me. When I booked the appointment for the iconic Rodeo Drive experience the option still felt very surreal. I had called one time and the team onsite is diligent and friendly when I wanted to gather a list of dresses within my price range. Julia Chiri was my Bridal Consultant and rather than rush me through my fitting or my decision she was the most patient and kind as we tried every single dress I wanted on. She educated us the process having a Vera Wang gown would entail and never overwhelmed me at any point. As I narrowed my choices down, she gave me plenty of space and time to consider my options. Julia may be the most professional salesperson I have ever met. Prior to the appointment, she reached out to learn about what I was looking for. She knew we were in the city only a weekend and followed up same-day and during the weekend. without being any pressure. She even fit us in before we flew back home and rearranged her schedule so she could complete my deposit process. I knew Vera Wang Bridal was the ultimate dream but I was surprised by what made it the best Bridal experience I have ever connect with. Aside from the beautiful work of this international designer, the team at this flagship store are positive, approachable and competent. She knew I was disappointed my mother could not be present and she offered to help me include her with the alternative process. I always hoped to have a Vera Wang wedding dress and never thought it would be possible. Julia and her team simply made the dream a reality. Thank you for the treats and I look forward to my fittings. read more

The best experience i have ever had. before ultimately purchasing my dress from Vera wang i visited every high end bridal salon in LA and NYC. let me just tell you the second i walked into Vera Wang Melrose(now Rodeo) and was greeted by David my stylist i knew i would buy my dress at Vera. He is the kindest, most knowledgeable bridal stylist consultant ever. he made my experience seamless from trying on the gowns to each and every fitting. He always went above and beyond to make me feel like the most important beautiful bride. He made sure every single appointment was perfect and that i was happy throughout the experience. I have told all my friends about David and let me just tell you David knows the right dress for each of his brides. Every single one of his brides always looks flawless and perfect. If you want the best bridal experience skip the other stores and book an appointment with David at Vera Wang Rodeo. I LOVE DAVID!!!!! read more

No joke - I went to probably 15 wedding dress shops before coming to Vera Wang. I am incredibly picky and refused to settle on anything - including the experience. If you have a chance to work with Grecia TAKE IT. She is amazing, these gowns are amazing, 10/10. lives up to the name! read more

Caitlin at the Vera Wang store on Rodeo is AMAZING!!!! She was SO HELPFUL IN EVERY WAY! She is so so knowledgeable and creative and sweet and helpful and professional....I could go on and on! My daughters and I went to find a gown and we could have NEVER done it without her!!! Thank you Caitlin....Vera Wang is SO lucky to have you! read more

I will start off by saying that I tried on nearly 20 wedding dresses before deciding on my Vera dress. I have never been the type of girl that has a binder with what her wedding will look like... in fact I was worried about wedding dress shopping because almost every dress I saw I thought was hideous. Enter David Freidman in my life. David truly is a talented consultant, not only did he get to know the very essence of who I am and what I wanted, he surprised me with a dress that I would have never picked out myself. Best of all.... he stayed within my budget! I know that when most people think of Vera Wang they think they can't afford it, but I challenge you to visit David and see what he can do for you. From the minute my mom and I walked in the door he treated us like VIP's. In fact for our second visit (yes it took two visits for me to finally find the dress) he stayed late just for me and I had to the store all to myself. When going to a store like Vera's you expect the BEST customer service, but it's people like David who go above and beyond because they truly care that make Vera Wang's store on Rodeo a cut above the rest. Thank you David for taking the time to REALLY getting to know me and finding me a dress that had all the elements I wanted in my dress for my wedding day. For a minute there I was starting to think the type of dress I was imagining didn't exist. read more

Until recently I wasn't certain what it meant to be a "MOB." Then I walked up the stairs to the bridal salon at Vera Wang with our daughter and it all became very apparent. The wedding gowns were exquisitely displayed along the perimeter of the minimalist space and took our breath away. We were met by Emily Smith, who had arranged our appointment, Alex Wight, who had taken the time to begin a conversation with Erinn via email to discuss wedding gown options, and Julia Chiri, Erinn's amazing consultant. Emily, Julia, and Alex seated us together in what felt like our very own private space and the "Vera Wang" experience began to unfold. As Julia spoke to Erinn about her vision for the day we were treated to champagne and macaroons. Julia walked Erinn through the salon discussing gown styles and options. As Erinn went back to try on gowns, we walked through the gallery and were so impressed with the design, beauty and finish of each gown. Every piece of lace, every part of the dress had a purpose~ to shape, to catch the light, to enhance.. And when Julia walked Erinn out in her first dress we were in awe. The champagne glasses continued to "toast" and Julia helped Erinn to fine tune her gown selection. Each time Erinn came out to model another dress Julia was there to offer insights and suggestions. It was so refreshing to have the sense that the focus wasn't about the "sale," instead it was about listening to Erinn's ideas and providing insight to match her with the perfect wedding gown. Yep, she had her "say yes to the dress" moment, and there were definitely some tears of joy shared amongst the group. Next will come the custom fittings and by all accounts the level of service and care to detail will follow Erinn until her wedding day! Vera, if you do find yourself reading YELP reviews, please know that you could not find more gracious, knowledgable, caring, professional people to represent what you have worked so hard to perfect. .. and many thanks to Ashley for her help and David Friedman for his lovely spirit! You're kinda family now... read more

I had such a great experience at Vera Wang!!! My dress came out perfect! I wore the Esther dress with matching bolero. I really felt like a princess! Aida was my seamstress and she is AMAZING!! I can't say enough good things about her. I'm a very big perfectionist and extremely picky, especially when it came to something as important as my wedding dress. Aida gave me everything that I wanted and more!! She was even more of a perfectionist than me! My dress turned out even more beautiful than I had imagined it all because of Aida. She really cares about making her clients happy and giving them their dream dress! read more

You won't disappointed by this place. Chanelle helped me to find my wedding dress. She is fun, nice and very patient. You won't feel be pushed or disrespect. I defiantly will recommend her to be your bridal consultant. read more

When I had my first fitting at Vera Wang, I requested to meet with David. He had assisted my best friend two years ago and he provided the best customer service, was very knowledgeable and made the whole process fun. I had the exact same experience. Thank you David for being fantastic to my mom and my best friend. I would refer David to every bride!!! read more

Extremely talented staff and gorgeous dresses. Julia is down to earth and smart, Jillian is excellent at handling fittings and David is a delightful character. The whole team made me feel comfortable, special, and well taken care of -- this is a world-class experience for any bride!!! read more

Everyone I have been referred to by Vera Wang are the best person! Karine the tailor helped us with my bride's wedding dress. We were very tide in time but she helped us figured everything out perfectly within our limited time. Thank you Chanel again for your referral! read more

Thank you Vera Wang LA! Aida, the lead tailor, is incredible and fit my dress to absolute perfection, even though I have always had difficulty with my large bust. I flew from NY to LA for each fitting just to be able to work with her. Chanelle and Emily also went above and beyond to make sure I picked the perfect dress, and were incredibly detail oriented, kind, and knowledgeable. I was so concerned with getting the right dress with the right fit given past challenges with dresses, and could not have had a better end result!! Highly recommend! read more

This review is for DAVID. (I would like to note that I have yelped only one other time in my life and don't have much free time, so it takes a lot for me to spend the time to write a review.) CONCLUSION: In short, David is INCREDIBLE... and that is an UNDERSTATEMENT. He made it an amazing experience that I will always remember. Not only was he knowledgeable about the dress styles, material, and workmanship, he was personable (not stuffy as you may expect from a designer boutique), outgoing, accommodating, patient, and a whole lot of fun. I never felt rushed to hurry through dresses or pressured to buy something since I had taken up so much of his time. I loved him, my bridesmaids loved him, and my 62 year-old dad loved him. This is the experience that every soon-to-be-bride deserves. And had I not been lucky enough to have an appointment with David, I would have missed out. If you go to Vera, ask for David. Trust me, you will not regret it. EXPLANATION: By the time I showed up to Vera two weeks ago, I had already been to 8 other stores. Time to go through the motions again, right? WRONG. Enter David. He sat with us (I was accompanied by two girlfriends), asked about my dress-shopping experience, my likes, dislikes, and everything else he needed to help me find the perfect dress. By this time, we had already laughed so much that my face hurt. Then off he went to find "the one." Every dress he selected for me was fabulous because 1) Vera dresses are Vera dresses and 2) David knew exactly what dresses to have me try on to not only stay within my budget, but to also flatter my body type. I was soooo needy, too. Can I try this veil? How about that one? Can I try this dress on again? David hung in there like a champ, smiling the whole time. Ultimately, I was in love... with the FIRST DRESS David selected for me. I have commitment issues (only with expensive things), so I needed to make sure that this was it. David actually encouraged me to think on it, instead of pushing for the sale. And this was after we had kept him well past closing time (oops!). When I left the store, my girlfriends and I couldn't stop ranting and raving about how fabulous David was and what a great experience we all had. (Yes, we eventually talked about the dress, but that came second, after they both vowed to see David when they get married.) Last week, I went back to visit the dress with my dad to confirm that it was "the one." David again assisted me and greeted me with a hug. (We were BFFs by this time.) Again, it was a wonderful experience. I tried on the dress and confirmed that I was in love, but didn't want to buy it until I locked down the venue. David completely understood. No pressure to make the purchase. Today I went back to make the dress mine. I am now the proud owner of a Vera Wang wedding dress. David was working with another soon-to-be-bride, but he made a point to come over to say hi, chat it up for a bit, congratulate me on my dress, and tell me to contact him if I needed anything or had any questions (including recommendations on wedding vendors!!!) I left on cloud 9. Not only did I pick an AMAZING dress, I had so much fun getting there because of David. He is truly something special! I'm sad that the process is over, but hope I get to see him when I come in for my fittings! read more

If you're looking for impeccable service, make sure to work with Chanelle in the bridal department. She's beyond helpful, attentive and sweet. She makes every bride feel her most beautiful and goes over and beyond to deliver an experience to remember! No other bridal stylist compares! read more

What a great experience to get a bridal gown from Vera Wang. Everyone at this store was always super friendly and very helpful. I purchased my dress from here and the whole process was professional and easy as a customer. read more

I had the best time trying on beautiful gowns with Chanelle Scott at the Vera Wang store on Rodeo drive. She made wedding dress shopping much more fun than expected and there's nothing I would've changed about my experience. My 4 girlfriends and I were late to our 1 hour appt due to traffic (we drove up from San Diego) but Chanelle never rushed us. We were all treated to delicious champagne (my GFs all finished 2 glasses) and I got to try on 4 different dresses. I fell in love in love with one of them and was ready to say yes to the dress but my GFs stopped me since I haven't explored other brands. I was expecting for Chanelle to convince me to buy the dress right away but she was not pushy at all! She was very informative and knows what style looked best for my body type and gave me very helpful tips. Chanelle set the bar so high that I don't want to check out other bridal boutiques b/c i know I will just be disappointed. If you want to feel like a princess, you should schedule an appt at the Vera Wang store and request Chanelle as your consultant. read more

I had a wonderful time working with Julia! She made the experience of trying on wedding dresses so easy and stress free and I enjoyed every minute. I ended up purchasing the first gown that I tried on because she understood my style and what I wanted so well. I honestly would say that I bought the dress 80% because I loved it, and 20% because I liked working with Julia so much. I knew that I would enjoy going back for fittings, etc. I'm also skeptical in general about consultants in the fashion industry and didn't know what to expect from a store like Vera Wang. I was so happy that Julia was my consultant. I brought my mom and close friend shopping with me (both of whom also are very skeptical and picky), and both also loved Julia. Vera Wang was my first stop of the day (out of 3), and I knew immediately that I'd be buying from there. read more

As far as my experience purchasing the dress, I would give it five stars. Great customer service and feedback during my appointment and when I came back the following day to decide, they were patient and friendly. I can't really say the same for when I went back for the fittings. There was another girl who took over and she was not too great with follow up emails and requests. For the amount I spent for the dress and the tailoring charges, I would expect the whole process to be seamless from start to finish. I can't say that it was, otherwise my score would've been higher. read more

In my search for the perfect dress I went to all the top bridal shops and more. Of all the experiences, Vera Wang is top notch. My first experience was with Vera Wang in SF. They served us tea and macaroons and really pampered us but my experience fell short when the original bridal consultant I worked with left and all the recommendations/changes she had suggested for the dress no one knew anything about. After a disappointing conversation and experience with the SF store David Freeman really stepped up and saved the day. He went above an beyond and really was the only reason I kept considering Vera Wang. David really tries to connect with you as a person and understand your needs. He really tries to help you see your vision through even when it's a bit crazy. Vera wang was my last stop in my year of searching and as they say, " you save the best for last," read more

After shopping at several other bridal stores in Beverly Hills and feeling like nobody knew what they were doing, I was so incredibly surprised when I met Julia at the Vera Wang store. Julia was nothing short of amazing, she is an absolute professional, knows exactly what works and looks great on the clients, and has such a wonderful demeanor. I loved the ambiance and the courtesy extended by the staff here. They really created an "experience." They were gracious with the lattes and macaroons, and a glass of champagne to celebrate. They make you feel like you are having a bridal moment. I went to several high end stores and none of them could create the experience, service, and designs that Vera Wang's store did. I am incredibly grateful to Julia for making this moment so special. She helped me find the perfect dress for me. After purchasing my dress, I was very hesitant at first with getting my dress altered because any error in the alteration or if the work performed was sloppy, or poor it would be readily apparent on my dress. However, after I ordered the alterations package, and Julia learned that I would be working with Aida, she assured me that Aida is the best. I could not agree more, AIDA IS THE BEST. I would not trust anyone else with altering my dress. As mentioned above, my dress is very hard to alter because it is so simple, with such clean lines, there are no embellishments or lace to cover up any poor workmanship. It required a truly talented person to be able to take in the dress and keep in line with the clean aesthetic of the dress. Her quality of work is undeniably the best; by far the best workmanship I have seen, and I have had so many things altered in my lifetime. Aida's professionalism, talent, and eye for detail was so incredible, that I could not have been happier. She knows exactly what you need to make sure the dress is secure, that it is presentable and chic, and she makes sure it happens. I have and will continue to recommend my family and friends to work with Julia and Aida for any of their needs at Vera Wang. I highly recommend the two of them. read more

We had the most awesome experience with the wedding dress shopping for my daughter, Nikki! The staff were incredibly helpful and we felt so comfortable at ease. David is just awesome, he knew how to read what the bride to be was looking for perfectly! He made the experience fun and exciting, so much so that we wish we could have an excuse to go back to the Vera Wang store everyday to purchase a wedding dress. Claire was attentive in an unobtrusive way, checking if we needed anything and making sure our champagne in those beautiful champagne flutes were filled as we needed them. Rosanna was so warm and professional helping with the measurements and paperwork. What a perfect experience it was and we never felt rushed once, it was clear they wanted us to enjoy the experience ! My daughter found her perfect dress and veil and now we cannot wait to have the opportunity to have to go back for fittings etc so that we can see our new favorite people again. Looking for a wedding dress? Vera Wang on Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills CA is the place to go for sure!!! Thank you David, Rosanna and Claire! read more

(Moved from the old page, because this deserves to be seen.) David at Vera Wang is amazing. I was starting to understand why (almost) every bride becomes a bridezilla when he came along and streamlined the "process" for me. Buying a wedding dress is a stressful endeavor, not just because gowns are so expensive, but because a wedding dress is a once in a lifetime; it HAS to be the PERFECT dress; right?!? Here's what I love about David, so far: he is not pretentious, he is not Bev Hills-ish, he is cool and fashionable and obviously opinionated but will cater to any bride's aesthetic, regardless of his personal preference -- he seems mostly interested in making his brides look, feel, and project their most beautiful. My one criticism of the store is that the new 90210 location (Rodeo Drive, Baby) is darker than the old store -- great mood lighting, but not ideal for trying on clothes. Regardless, they will get the kinks ironed out, I am sure. Bottom line: brides - if you're looking for a fabulous Vera dress, go see David. He is the best! read more

Had a wonderful and easy experience at Vera wang thanks to David Friedman ! I came in looking for a wedding dress and He found me what I wanted and was so patient with me ! I highly recommend David -very knowledgeable !!!! Brides if you are looking for a wedding dress go to David at Vera wang!!! read more

David Friedman was my wedding dress consultant for my wedding last May. Prior to Vera Wang, I had gone to multiple other stores to look and try on dresses. The service I received from David was exceptional. What stood out the most for me about David was that he really cared, listened, and never pressured me to make a purchase. He spent the time to understand what I was looking for and what my concerns were. David understood how stressful wedding planning can be and made sure the experience of dress shopping was a very positive and pleasant experience for me. Once I had selected my dress, every dress fitting appointment was also a great experience. When I look back on my wedding, I feel so fortunate that David was my consultant and part of my wedding dress experience. Vera Wang should be very proud to have someone like him representing her brand. read more

Julia from Bridal was absolutely wonderful. So sweet, knowledgable, professional, and honest. She cares about you as a client and wants to do everything possible to make sure you find your perfect dream dress. I couldn't have asked for a better dress shopping experience. read more

Julia Chiri at Vera Wang is amazing!!! From the very first moment we arrived my daughter and her party were treated to the most amazing first class service and kindness. Julia made sure everyone felt special and included and proceeded to make sure my daughter found her perfect wedding dream gown!!! It was a magical experience and I am so grateful to Julia and her team for making our daughter's wedding dreams come true!!! I'll be forever grateful!!! read more

David F. at the newly relocated Beverly Hills boutique is an absolute angel!

I cannot thank him enough for helping my clients have the most beautiful dresses for their long awaited wedding days. read more

Vera wang is absolutely amazing! David is fantastic and I can't wait to pick up my wedding dress this weekend.

I cannot say enough about the amazing experience we had at Vera Wang today with David Friedman. My sister is getting married next October and she has been a Vera Wang admirer ever since I can remember. Not only did David Friedman meet our expectations, he exceeded them with his infectious personality and knowledge. Thank you SO much for everything. read more

Vera Wang, and specifically David Friedman, has been the best, my most favorite, even relaxing part of my entire wedding planning experience. Planning my wedding has been particularly difficult as I'm also dealing with the loss of my mother to cancer. She was, however, able to join me on my visit to Vera Wang -a blessing I will forever be grateful for. My Matron of Honor was also a VW bride and told me such wonderful things about her experience with David, and considering the state of my mother, there was no question that he was the one I needed to work with. There are honestly not enough words to describe this man -he is salt of the earth. I firmly believe he was meant to come into my life for a reason and David has become far more than "just a bridal consultant" to me. He was so loving and nurturing to my mother, ensuring she was comfortable and had whatever she needed -including draping a robe over her shoulders when he sensed she had become a bit cold. It was very clear that there was a lot of uncertainty surrounding whether my mother would make it to my wedding day, and David ensured that he was going to make our appointment as special as possible for both my mother and I -something I will be forever grateful as it ultimately was the only time my mother got to see me in my dress. VW was the first and only place I went to try on gowns -there was just no need to go anywhere else. David put me in 2 dresses before he put me in "the one" -a dress that I initially had snubbed when I saw it on the hanger. He had taken everything I said and found the PERFECT dress ...even when I didn't know it at the time. The man knows what he's doing -I mean, he's got a gift. And he knows just the right times to come into the conversation and when to take a step back to give a bride space. Honestly, that day was everything and more I ever dreamed it would be. It was absolutely perfect. When my mother passed, I received a call from David expressing his condolences -something he did not have to do considering I had already bought my gown. It was just the genuine kindness in his heart. He promised to do whatever he could to make me feel as special as possible throughout the rest of my time with VW. Something he's definitely lived up to. From my very first fitting, I felt welcomed with open arms and have been paired up with Ida and Jillian, who have been so wonderful and are thinking of ideas of how we can attach my mother's wedding rings to my dress to have her close to me on my day. David even has made it a point to pop his head in on my fitting appointments, giving me a huge hug. I cannot say enough good things about Vera Wang and everyone I've dealt with. They have all been so wonderful and I continue to tell anyone I know who's gotten engaged that they MUST go to Vera Wang. My experience with David and the rest of the team will forever be one of my fondest memories. read more
