The best bridal shopping experience ever. I went to several other shops and nothing compares to here. Their selection is amazing and they have such a wide variety of designers, styles and price points. Huge shout out to Mandy! She made the entire process amazing from start to finish and truly went above and beyond to help me find the perfect dress. read more

I was honestly dreading wedding dress shopping because I hate shopping and trying on clothes is my least favorite thing. Catie completely changed that for me! She made me feel comfortable from the start - no pressure, no pushing her own opinions, just genuine support. She really listened to what I wanted and let me have my own reactions to each dress, which meant so much. What I expected to be stressful turned into such a positive experience. I'm so grateful she helped me find my wedding dress. If you're nervous about dress shopping, Catie is amazing!!!! read more

A few years ago I went with my sister to Vows, my sister was trying on dresses and her experience was so amazing that fast forward to now- I decided to go back to Vows to find my dress. I'm not quite a "girly" girl so I was SO nervous going into this, my hands were shaking lol. But right off the bat, Hannah H (our bridal helper) made me feel comfortable and reassured me we would have a fun time. Throughout my entire time there Hannah H was PHENOMENAL. She always made sure I felt comfortable while changing in and out of dresses, she truly was listening to the things I did & the things I did not, like about the dresses I was trying on. It was because of her attention to detail & to me- that Hannah herself ended up pulling my dream dress that I said YES to! She found everything I was looking for all in one. I was also happily surprised the dress she pulled was not only in my budget, but actually UNDER! I think their dresses are so reasonably priced especially for how beautiful they are. I was also offered a celebratory glass of sparkling cider when I said yes! The entire experience from entry to exit was 12/10 for me and my sister. I couldn't recommended Vows more, I think they are so wonderful and I wish I could try dresses on all day at their store it was so much fun! read more

I had an absolutely amazing experience at Vows this past Tuesday for the sample sale. I had the pleasure of working with Liuba! She made the process so easy, and she is definitely a professional! She is one of the stylists at Vows and she was so incredibly sweet and really helped me find the dress of my dreams! I ended up getting a couture Enaura dress for a fraction of the price! I totally recommend going here, especially during their sample sale, if you're a bride to be! Thank you so much! read more

I had the best experience both times I visited Vows Bridal. The first time, I went with my mom, best friend, and two of my cousins. My stylist was Kelly and she was amazing. I tried on probably 10 wedding dresses in a beautiful private room. Kelly let all my guests pick a dress for me that they loved, and I picked several that I loved. I didn't feel rushed at all. I thought I had found my dress but I held off on buying it because I had a second fitting the next day at a different store. Kelly didn't make me feel obligated to buy anything right then and there which I really appreciated. I tried on another dress I loved the following day which left me very confused. It was mermaid style which I had not tried at Vows because I felt it wouldn't look good on me. I reached out to Kelly again and asked her if I could come in again and try some more dresses in the mermaid style. She was so sweet and accommodating. I went in for a second appointment with her, tried on the original dress I had in mind, and tried on some more in the mermaid style that I saw online, and also some that Kelly pulled for me. I ended up finding the one! It was by Allure Bridals and about $1900 which was within my budget. I ordered the dress and it was ready for pick up earlier than expected. It was very big on me so definitely required a lot of alterations, but it was absolutely stunning and I felt so confident and beautiful on my wedding day. Thank you Kelly!! read more

VOWS was the third and final salon that I went to. I loved my experience there, and was thrilled to find my dress. The inventory is fantastic, and my stylist was so helpful in pulling my top dress from another salon, as well as similar styles. When it came time to decide, she was super accommodating in showing me the dress I loved in my size, while holding up a different size of the same dress with the lining color I preferred. I don't live in the area, and VOWS made sure my dress got shipped to me out-of-state in perfect condition! I would highly recommend VOWS for a great dress shopping experience.

Mollie was amazing! She really listened to my needs and was super patient through the whole process! She really made me feel comfortable and at ease! read more

First place I tried on dresses and the experience was amazing!! Katie B. helped me and was so knowledgeable, caring, and overall kept high vibes throughout the whole appointment! Ended up finding my dream dress (something I'd never think I'd love) and am so excited - the overall vibe of the store was professional, friendly, and uplifting with all brides hyping one another up. I'd recommend all brides go to Vows! read more

don't even know where to begin--my entire experience at Vows was absolutely amazing. This was the very first place I went to look for my wedding dress, and from the moment I walked in, everyone was so friendly and welcoming. My stylist, Hannah, was incredible. She greeted me right away, sat down with me to discuss what I was looking for, and then let me browse the floor to pull dresses I loved. Hannah helped me try each one on with such care and professionalism. The very first dress I tried on ended up being the one--my true "say yes to the dress" moment, even though I wasn't expecting it at all. Hannah still encouraged me to try other styles so I could be absolutely sure. At no point did I ever feel rushed or pressured to make a decision. She made the entire process smooth, relaxed, and enjoyable, and she truly went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable and confident. I cannot wait to go back to pick up my dress and choose my accessories. I would highly recommend Vows to any bride--they have a huge selection and a wide variety of sizes and styles. An amazing experience all around! read more

I had a 12/10 experience at Vows with Christina! Vows truly had the odds stacked against them when I walked in yesterday. It was my first day wedding dress shopping and I'd gone to another appointment at a different salon that morning where I found 2 dresses I was convinced nothing would beat. While I was waiting to meet my consultant I was 99% positive I would not be buying a dress that day. I met Christina and felt instantly comfortable with her. The consultant at the other salon was pushy and I did not feel comfortable asking her questions. My experience with Christina was the complete opposite! She was super transparent about prices of dresses which was greatly appreciated because the other place was not, and never once made me feel pressured into buying a dress. I showed her my 2 top choice dresses I found at the other salon (1 of which Vows did not carry) and she let me and my group pick the first 6 dresses I tried on from the racks. After I had it narrowed down to 2 that I really liked, she pulled a dress that ended up being the one! Just seeing it on the hanger I knew it was my dress. It was super similar to one of my 2 favorites from the other salon but it did not include a feature I told her I really disliked on that dress. It was absolutely perfect and I didn't want to change a single thing about the new dress. I can't believe Christina was able to find exactly what I wanted and beat the other 2 dresses! She's so knowledgeable about designers and the Vows inventory. Getting to try my dress on with different veils in different lighting made it even better. I'm SO glad I went to Vows and found my dream dress! I still feel on cloud 9. read more

A couple years late, but my mom and I had a great experience here for my brother's September 2022 wedding. As part of the dress shopping, my now sister in law was very chill about wedding party gowns. We all agreed on a color scheme of blue/purple floor length gowns and my mom and I started our shopping. We visited several stores and ended up buying a MOG gown at another store in Boston (last one in stock/sample). Despite already having a gown, my mom kept this appointment, and was not disappointed. In our previous shopping trips, we discovered that many MOB/MOG dresses were incredibly gaudy and styled for more mature figures, which my mom is not. Vows has an entire room dedicated to special occasion/MOBG gowns in all styles and price points. My mom found a stunning floor length ombré lace gown with Swarovski crystal accents, something completely different from most gowns we tried. It definitely blew the other gown out of the water! After measurements and ordering, the gown arrived with plenty of time to spare for alterations. We will definitely be back for any future o read more

I cannot say enough about Vows! I purchased my dream wedding dress after two appointments with Liuba. Liuba was professional, patient and SO helpful. I knew after my first appointment I found the dress I loved but didn't want to purchase without exploring other options just incase. I ended up going back to Vows because my initial experience with Liuba was so positive and I knew my perfect dress was there. My bridal party also accompanied me which made it lots of fun. The suites are beautiful and spacious. This was one of the best parts of my wedding planning! read more

Bianca was absolutely amazing! She helped me find my dream wedding dress by chance and at an incredible price. She was so patient, helpful, and made the entire process comfortable and easy. The boutique has a terrific selection--especially of Galia Lahav gowns--which made the experience even more special. I couldn't have asked for a better experience! read more

Today was an important day for my daughter . She had many choices to make to choose the right wedding dress for her special day in August .

I went to Vows on Dec 6th and had the absolute best experience. The store itself is so chic, clean and organized. We had a slight miscommunication with checking in, but the owner quickly came out to apologize about the mix up, as did the other attendants at the front desk (all about how you recover!). This was my second dress appointment, and I was nervous about the entire process. Insert - Christina. Christina made the process so fun, positive, and relaxed. She made me feel like a true 'baddie' in every dress I tried on but still was honest. She ended up picking my winning dress by taking all of my feedback from the other dresses I tried on. It was the final dress I tried on, and it ended up being THE ONE. I had booked a second appointment that day elsewhere and ended up cancelling it, as I had the winner. It was seriously a perfect day for me and my group, and I kept smiling the whole rest of the day. read more

I booked my appointment at Vows two months in advance, and after arriving early, I was told to wait in my car until they were ready for me and I received a call. What is this, 2020? Once inside, it was clear this place is not what's shown on the show. The "outlet" was a glorified closet with three tiny racks, and the main area was surprisingly sparse. Other bridal salons I visited had way more inventory out and ready. I wasn't expecting it to be the same as the show was 13 years ago. Not at all. But, I was expecting there to be more off the rack options. Despite the advance notice, my consultant was clearly unprepared. I was never contacted in advance as I was at other salons. She questioned if I was even getting married this year, and once I said yes, she basically shut down. We weren't invited to browse--just sent to the clearance corner. No dresses were pulled for me in advance. Even a shop I booked less than 24 hours ahead had multiple dresses ready to try. At other salons, I had 6-10 options, all of which could be ordered or taken off the rack for a July/August wedding. Not the case here. She offered me a black dress to be purchased off the rack, then dragged it across the floor, stepping on it with her shoes. She didn't help me into any dresses--I had to ask for help when I got stuck in one. Meanwhile, consultants at all the other stores helped me in and out of gowns with care. I felt rushed, like I was her last appointment of the day and she just wanted to leave--especially since I wasn't shopping for a pricey white dress. Vows, it's 2025. Offer color options. Let clients who've booked appointments browse. Be prepared. A simple phone call could've saved us both the time--I drove 45 minutes for this. I left feeling disappointed, frustrated, and completely overlooked. Based on my experience, I wouldn't recommend this place to others. read more

From the moment we stepped into Vows everyone was extremely attentive and friendly- the energy was amazing! Our stylist Deirdre was hands down the best. She had us to walk the showroom and pick styles we liked and after hearing reviews on the dressed I originally tried on she went back into the showroom and with her magic touch pulled dresses that she felt fit the bill. And she was right, the dress I went with was pulled from Deirdre! Thank you for making an experience I was dreading enjoyable and not stressful. read more

I had a fabulous experience with Deirdre. She listened, was attentive, and made me feel extremely comfortable and beautiful! From start to finish, she was professional. Deirdre was the one who noticed what looked great on me, picked out my dress, and made sure it met my budget. I am so happy and can't wait for my big day! Would highly recommend Vows to all brides. read more

Hannah was AMAZING! So caring and nice and she listened closely to what I was saying and was able to go find dresses that fit exactly what I wanted. I found my dream dress at my price range! Would 100% recommend! I felt like a princess! read more

I had an AMAZING time at Vows. Whether you're shopping for a dress by yourself or with your crew, the staff are so friendly and eager to help you find your perfect dress. I bought my wedding earrings from them, too. I'll miss wandering the shop and feeling supported and hyped up - thank you for helping me find my dream dress!! read more

This was my favorite bridal shop that I went to and where I ended up buying my dress from!! I went to four other bridal shops besides this one, and the service at Vows was the best by a landslide. I was helped by Kelly and Olivia; they were both so incredibly helpful, and most importantly, patient! It's not uncommon that people who work in bridal shops are pushy and just want to make a sale. Never once at Vows was I pressured in any way to make a purchase. Also, their selection of dresses is huge and most of them are very affordable for the quality and designs. I felt so comfortable and an ease here, I cannot recommend them enough. read more

Service, selection and value was top notch. My only issue is when my daughter ordered the dress I wasn't standing with her and found out she ordered one size down from what she currently was! Of course, when it came in, it was too small. I think it's up to the sales girl to insist that she not do that because you can always take it in. read more

We purchased my daughters wedding gown at Vows. Our consultant Hannah was amazing. She thoughtful with her selections and gave honest feedback. Even though the appointments are timed we never felt rushed. The atmosphere is stylish and just what you want from a bridal salon. We couldn't be happier with our experience. Thank you Hannah!! read more

I absolutely loved my experience at Vows, my stylist Bianca was amazing and she really took the time to listen to what you wanted and made sure you felt beautiful in the gown you pick. read more

My girl Eva was an incredible consultant and stylist. I adored how real she is with her approach. She got right to work to help piece together what I liked and didn't like in a dress. She was straightforward about asking for our budget and when there was one dress she pulled that was over our price range, she made that clear and asked whether or not I wanted to even see it at all. She clearly knows what she's doing and I am so appreciative that the stars aligned and I got paired with her! read more

I am a size 12/14 and when trying on wedding dresses I was expecting NOTHING to close- full back out etc. the typical wedding dress shopping experience for midsize brides. At Vows they had inclusive sizing so that I could actually see myself in a fully zipped dress. The consultant was amazing and helped me to find my dream dress! I highly encourage my fellow midsize queens to try on dresses here!!! read more

Long story short - HIGHLY recommend this location and a huge thank you to Mandy for her expertise, warmth, and exceptional service! I was in yesterday with my friends, not expecting to commit to any dress after only one day of looking, and unsure of what I would want. I tried on several different styles and Mandy was exceptional at identifying what motifs I liked and what other options may fit with those in mind. There's a great selection, huge price range (from very affordable and in my budget to gorgeous high end dresses) - I highly recommend this location and I'm particularly grateful to Mandy for her help. It was an awesome day and I couldn't be happier! read more

Vows Bridal - One of my favorites - Bridal Near Me - Watertown, Massachusetts

I think this place would be great for a lot of people, it just wasn't exactly the experience I was looking for. Let's start with the pros. This place is huuuge and has a really impressive selection. There's a little bit of everything at every price point, so it would be a good place to start if you don't really know what you're looking for. They also let you shop around yourself and pull anything you want to try on, which not every bridal shop allows. You get a semi-private area to try on dresses with a little changing area for the bride, and seating for your guests. The staff was really nice here and there's all kind of small touches like free water bottles, photo ops, etc. Now, my reasons for only 3 stars. I felt realllly rushed when I was in here, and with how big this place is, there were so many people around that it felt a little chaotic. I was asked to pick a number of dresses as "favorites" online before coming in, and when I got there, I don't think the sales person I was working with had even looked at my preferences or pulled anything I wanted to try on. Throughout the appointment, I mostly tried on things I picked out myself, and had to keep pulling up the website to find more dresses to try on my own. The sales person didn't make many recommendations of her own, so I don't think I really benefited from her expertise. Finally, with how many dresses there are, I felt like you really had to dig through a lot of poor-quality options to find the gems. I tried on a lot of ripped samples that seemed poorly made, and it was much more hit-or-miss than other boutiques I've been to. Like I said, the big selection might be perfect for some brides, but I'm sad to say I don't think I'd recommend this spot to my friends. read more

I came to Vows with my mom for my first appointment and then came back the next day with my mom and sister to make a final decision on my dress and I could not be happier with the dress I chose and my experience! We worked with Christina who was absolutely fabulous! She made me feel super comfortable and really listened to how I described my style and what I wanted to pick the best selection of dresses to try on for me. We narrowed it down to a top 2 and then the next day I picked the one! Everyone who works here is welcoming and friendly and they have a huge selection of dresses to choose from! read more

This was the best dress experience I've had by far! Christina was amazing and helped me find the perfect dress. They had a large selection with a little bit of everything. I cannot recommend Vows enough, make dress shopping easy and go here!! read more

Hannah H was an incredible stylist and super helpful. Everything went smoothly, and I am incredibly please with my dress selection!

I had decided that my original vision wasn't flattering on me, so I was nervous about starting from scratch again when I went to VOWS. I was shocked that I walked out of my appointment, having bought my dress! Hannah H. was amazing. I told her I was going in a different direction from what I chose for my "top five" dresses. She listened to my concerns and worked so fast to grab dress options based on my feedback. I can be indecisive, and she was patient and helpful. The whole team there is wonderful. This is going to be THE place I recommend. For such an important decision, you need a place with a huge selection of designers from all budgets and a kind and professional team to back it. read more

I can't say enough good things about my experience with Katie at VOWS. She listened to what I wanted, pulled dresses that had the elements I asked for, stayed well within my budget and did not try to upsell or push anything I did not want. She kept the dressing room clean so it didn't feel stuffy or chaotic. We quickly got through a large amount of dresses in a short amount of time. The location itself is beautiful with ample seating and a large, comfortable dressing room with plenty of space to change. They also have areas that provide different lighting they can take you to so you can get the vision of how your dress will look in different lighting. 10/10!!! read more

We had an amazing experience at Vows today with Hannah. She listened so well and picked the best dresses to try on. We all loved her style and how well she spaced dresses out and then would go get ones based on what had been narrowed down. Hannah gave us a really wonderful experience and I am so grateful we went! read more

I was a little nervous going into my appointment, but the team at Vows made everything SO EASY. Big shout out to Aly for being a rockstar and making the experience of finding my dress such a positive one. I went into the appointment thinking that it would be hard to find a dress because I'm plus size, but there was such a large selection to choose from. Ultimately I said "YES" to the most perfect dress (a style that I had not even considered) and can't wait to wear it on my big day. read more

This morning I shopped for just a veil and I feel I was treated as well as any other family in the salon. Our daughter had already purchased her dress in Dallas, but is moving back to Boston. We felt it made more sense to buy the veil locally and was referred to Vows by my daughter in law who purchased her dress there last year. Rosa in accessories was lovely to work with, she did not rush me along, and she gave me many options to work with. After my daughter's review we chose the perfect veil and ordering it with Olivia went smoothly. What a lovely shop and what a lovely experience. Thank you Vows! read more

Said yes to the dress in August 2023 for my October 2024 wedding and I am so pleased with my experience! I've heard so many amazing things about Vows and couldn't wait to experience the magic! Because it's so popular and the dresses are so beautiful I was nervous they would be out of budget, but they have dresses for all sorts of budget points which is AMAZING. The team in the store is super friendly and accommodating. They really listened to what I want and pulled a handful of options that they think I would like. I'm super happy with my experience and would recommend Vows to any bride to be! read more

VOWS gave me a great experience. Christina was the best stylist! She was so attentive and sweet. She got to know my style and pulled gowns that fit me wonderfully.

I got my dream dress today at Vows! Everyone was so amazing and nice. Liuba was so nice and incredible. I came in with a vision and she picked out great dresses that looked amazing for my body!

This shop is very organized, operates on schedule, knowledgeable of the designers, very gracious, professional, and had our top picks waiting for us.

We highly recommend her. read more
