5500 Grossmont Center Dr, La Mesa“I had wonderful experience shopping here for a Marine Corps Ball gown! Hollie was so helpful in bringing me options for gowns to try on, and she helped me to find the perfect gown so quickly! They have a wide range of gowns and styles, with prices ranging from $90 to $600+ (the lower end is for what looks to be used gowns, and all the pricier gowns are by name brands like Sherri Hill). I appreciate that they have a military discount for ball gowns! I found the perfect gown that was in my budget for a decent price, while still looking beautiful and sophisticated.”

2121 Fifth Ave Ste 100, San Diego“Overall the White Flower did a very good job with my bridal gown alterations. Mary, my seamstress, was great to work with, and the hem and bustle on my gown looked amazing and stayed secure throughout my wedding and reception. The prices were also very reasonable compared to other alterations shops in the area. One frustrating part of the experience though was the amount of appointments - I had 4 total just to get a hem and bustle done - and there was a lack of flexibility to move the appointments when needed. Since I moved to San Francisco towards the end of my wedding planning process it was hard for me to schedule times to get to San Diego for my appointments, and I didn't feel that the White Flower was sensitive or accommodating to that. But besides this, they got the job done well and took good care of my gown, and I'm grateful for Mary's hard work to help me look my best for my wedding!”
“Ashley went above and beyond helping me decide on my dress, she had great advice and suggestions whenever I needed it and was so professional but still made me feel welcome and comfortable!”

“Lucy Pearl Bridal was the first shop that I went to for my wedding dress, and although I did not end up choosing one of their dresses, I had the most incredible experience. The space is so intimate and inviting. Ariana was so kind and welcoming throughout the entire appointment. My sister had passed away three weeks prior to my appointment and, naturally, I was having a hard time. When I told Ariana this, she gave me a hug and talked with me. I cannot emphasize how supportive and kind she was; not just to me, but also to my family who attended the appointment with me. I ended up finding the most perfect dress, it was just not my size (I am a bridal size 0, the dress was a bridal size 12). I still wanted to make it work and Ariana and Lauren went out of their ways to help. Ariana told Laurent the situation and they were able to offer a discount for the dress. After the appointment, Lauren offered to take the dress to a seamstress to find out if altering the dress to my size was possible/what the price would be. She was texting with me throughout the day with updates. Mind you, I had not spent any money. I had not spent money to place the dress on hold, yet, they still worked to help get me the dress. At the end of the day, I ultimately decided against purchasing the dress and getting it altered. I was so nervous to let Lauren know, but she was completely understanding of the situation; regardless of the fact that her and Ariana went out of their ways to assist me and I did not end up buying the dress. If there is any shop to recommend, it is Lucy Pearl Bridal. Their dresses are gorgeous, but the service is unmatched. Lauren and Ariana made this experience so wonderfully perfect and I could never thank them enough. If you are looking for your wedding dress, give Lucy Pearl a chance. It is the most perfect bridal shop.”
“I went to Lovely Bride in hopes to find my wedding dress, as the previous two places I went to were both misses. What an amazing experience! Nicole was SO helpful and patient, and had great recommendations. She was also just so friendly and easy to get along with, that it made my experience that much better. I felt comfortable voicing my opinions and being myself there. I am so happy to say that I found my dress with Nicole and am SO excited!!! Thank you again for your help and guidance, I definitely recommend Lovely Bride!!!”
“I have been using this dry cleaning and alterations place for 11 years and Mona & Abe were always there with a smile and always complied to my husbands weird requests with his clothing. Joe & Carolina are the new owners and we couldn't be more happy to have them as our favourite dry cleaners. I've recently taken in older clothing to be dealt with and they've done a marvellous job. I had cream slacks taken in, with a zipper replacement and it was fantastic and when I wore them to Church, I had many many compliments. Thank you both so much for continuing the Tradition of Primos, giving excellent and friendly service. Jon & Ray Rivers”
“Both, sad and happy I came here. Sad that I did not know about this place sooner and could not be happier with the experience. Both the dress shop owner and the seamstress are the sweetest women. Very warm and helped me as I took my challenging toddler and 6 month old baby to look for a baptismal gown. She has the cutest baby boots for the charro outfit.
This is a one spot shop. With so many mom & pop shops that have closed in National City that used to sell party favors. Here I can buy the baptismal candle set and a variety of rosary’s for my recuerdos.
Also, might be the best place to find a quince gown & fit for the chambelan. The prices blew my mind! Don’t be snobby and think Chula Vista is the only place in town for your special events. Unless you want to over pay. ?
FYI: They are the same people who used to be at Price Breakers.”
“Awesome!! Really affordable dresses and altering!! The dress I bought I loved but I asked for the back to be covered up because I felt too exposed. Some how they were able to do it made it look like it was part of the dress! Highly recommend and totally affordable!”
“Prior to coming to the galleria, we had already gone to multiple shops to find the perfect style and color suit/tuxedo for my soon-to-be husband and his groomsmen. We had no idea on which style and color to choose from but this shop had so many options to choose from. They had more colors and styles available compared to other shops. They also had unique styles/color bow ties and pocket squares. We were looking for a more of a spring look (lighter colors) and we found that the tan color fit them so well. Betty was super helpful and very patient with us. The shophours already ended but she still chose to help us in anyway she can (“and she stayed until the end. I recommend checking this place out and they will help you look your best on your special day. Thank you again Betty for your service!”
“I was looking for a fabulous dress for my brothers wedding and it was my first time going to Tara's. Let me just say there are the sweetest people to work with. They helped me find that special dress and I mean their dresses are one of a kind. The amount of compliments I received on the dress was unreal! If your looking for special dress and amazing people to help you find the dress. This is the place.”
“Gwen is amazing. My daughter attends her sewing class. She is so patient and knowledgeable. I can't praise her enough for the confidence she is instilling in my little one.”
“We had a wonderful experience! Amy is so kind and helpful and we founds some truly beautiful gowns. The shopfront seems inconspicuous at first but once inside, you are in for a great experience. They are a hidden gem of the formal dress scene in San Diego”
“Absolutely the most wonderful customer service I have ever received!! The selections were so beautiful, diverse, and stylish! The prices offered were from a wide range of budget friendly dresses to extremely high-end runway fashion dress! Overall, I had a fantastic experience at Saras, and I highly recommend it to anyone in search of a stylish and enjoyable shopping experience!!”

Her recommendations for my daughter's Quince Dama's dresses were spot on. Teresa's attention to detail and friendly service truly elevated my visit. Highly recommended!!!”
“Mario helped me pick out a beautiful cocktail dress that complimented my body type. He also gave me other fashion tips that were very helpful! Mil Gracias Mario!”
“This place is wonderful. Any dress you can dream of becomes yours. Areej and Bassem treat their customers like family. In the engagement, I called her a few days ago, and she certainly saved the situation with the most beautiful dress. At the wedding, I imagined a dress that was designed by Areej in a professional manner and it was amazing. I felt as if I was the queen of this place that meets the needs of any bride and at prices Very acceptable, I advise everyone to go to it. Thank you from the heart to Areej”

980 Camino De La Reina Suite A, San Diego“Went to buy a mother of the bride dress. The staff were friendly, welcoming, and very professional. The store ambiance was lovely and what you wish for when shopping for a bridal event. I appreciated email and text updates about my dress order. Manager Isabella was particularly helpful.”
“Went here with my friend and literally after roaming around all the places, this was the one we liked the most. Amazing staff who really wanted to bring our ideas to life, my friend was so happy after the whole experience and this place really made her wedding special. Thank you guys!”
“I had an amazing experience at Brides of San Diego. Cynthia was very kind and understood my vision. I found my dream reception dress. Overall very satisfied with the service.”
“I got the most gorgeous Wtoo by Watters dress from Winsome Brides for my wedding! On top of that, I lucked out and got it at a super discounted price ($500!!) with the tags still on and no alterations.
The consultant, Andrea, was super nice and accommodating. She did a great job at listening to what I liked/didn’t like in the dresses and selected the dress I ended up purchasing. She was also good at handling the different personalities at my appointment and making sure I wasn’t pressured into a dress I didn’t love.
Highly recommend making a dress appointment at Winsome Brides. It was so nice to buy my dress at a great price and take it home right away, versus spending $$$$$ and waiting for the dress to be made.”
