Bridal Shops in Chicago, IL

“Jose was super helpful answering any questions I had and helped finding the perfect outfit for my friend’s wedding. He also gave an amazing price! Thanks for all the help Jose!”

“Cool Store and friendly staff. I was invited to celebrate Diwali with friends and the store was very helpful finding something that not only fits but also looks good. I also appreciated they had a tailor on site to help adjust.”

“To say Jax was an extraordinary stylist would be an understatement. She turned my fun girls/family/(birthday!!!) dressing shopping day into pure magic! She is brilliant, passionate about her work, a crown straightener, your biggest cheerleader, a stylist-turned-friend and made this the most wonderful day! The Grace Loves Lace gowns take wedding dresses to another level. The fabric and the quality are simply unmatched, and to be fair we did give others a chance! All weddings gowns are beautiful, but Grace's are breathtaking. It was the most comfortable, personalized experience where the staff genuinely celebrates you. I said "yes"!!!! I had an experience that will live in my memories forever. And I recommend Grace Loves Lace to every bride out there. "Settle for nothing!" Love ya, Jax!!!”

“Krystina truly made the experience something I will always remember! She made everything about dress shopping amazing. The dresses are beautiful, and there are a wide range of styles and choices. The space is also gorgeous. Krystina really listened to my wants and needs and she curated a selection of dresses to choose from based on my requests. This is the perfect place for any chicago bride as they also accommodate a wide range of budgets and truly stick to them. I could not have asked for a better person or place to work with to find the most perfect wedding dress!”

“Lollie and the team here are incredible. Designed an engagement ring together. We went through multiple design iterations and they really made sure it was just perfect. Highly reccomend!”

“100% would recommend this designer for anyone looking for a gorgeous wedding dress that is unique, incredibly well-made and ridiculously affordable for the quality. My daughter fell in love with the Aster dress from the moment she saw a picture of it online. We took a trip to the boutique (from New Hampshire) and the consultant was so sweet and helpful. We had it custom sized for her and it was even more beautiful than we could have expected. I had even asked for a special alteration for the straps and they did exactly what we wanted. Every guest commented that they could not have imagined a more perfect dress that suited her style and personality. Flora & Lane is definitely a great place for the bride who is looking for a non-stressful wedding dress experience!”

“Kelly is honest, friendly, and creates a welcome environment for her customers. I could have stayed to talk shop and learn more about her stock all day, but it was 2 days before my wedding, so I had loads more errands to run!

One of my bridesmaids referred me here after my first alterations person didn't work out and I am so glad she did. Thank you to everyone at Sew for rescuing my dress and helping me feel my best on my wedding day!”

“My experience at Belle Atelier was great! Their store was clean, each dress was in pristine condition and all employees were so friendly. My stylist, Liliana, was so helpful and welcoming throughout the whole process and made finding my dress stress free! If you want an upscale, calm and inviting atmosphere Belle Atelier is your place.”

“The team at Aisle Chic, especially Ashley, helped me find the perfect dress for my wedding last winter. I was very uncertain of what type of look I wanted. Ashley helped me figure that out and find a dress within budget that I LOVED. (I love it so much I just want to wear it around my apartment to put it on again!!) Everyone was so nice and helpful, and very communicative and transparent which truly appreciated. They even helped me find a place that would provide quality of affordable alterations. If you are looking for a wedding dress, this place should be on the top of your appointment list!”

“I truly had the most magical experience at Bella Bianca. They let me know on Thursday that a dress I had wanted to try on at a trunk show hadn’t come in because there was only a runway sample in existence. Of course I was sad but still showed up to see if there was something else I loved.Almost halfway through my appointment my stylist, Katie, told me they had a surprise but they hadn’t wanted to tell me until then. They worked with the designer of the dress to overnight it just for me to try on!The dress showed up shortly after, they steamed it, and I tried it on. It was truly like a dream! I said yes to my dream dress in their beautiful salon while everyone congratulated and cried with me. Still in shock they would do this for me. Thank you Bella Bianca for everything!”

“James preserves the almost lost art of dying silk shoes to match a dress or gown. His shoes are gorgeous silk and he matched my ruby gown to perfection. So elegant, so sophisticated, so unique! I highly recommend his service!”

“Came here looking for my wedding dress and had the pleasure of working with Catherine. She was extremely helpful and had amazing dress recommendations based on the vibe / aesthetic I relayed to her. She was the biggest hype woman you could ask for, and really made the process so smooth. She was so accommodating and was able to help squeeze me into an appointment multiple times and extremely responsive. I was so lucky to work with her, it was such a pleasure! Would definitely recommend going to Mira and asking specifically for Catherine!”

“Liz…I love you so much! You always make it happen and are a rockstar when it comes to calming my nerves when altering my vintage dress from my great-abuela. Although my Tahitian pearls might alter the way you feel about the dress choice - I appreciate you being patient with me as I approach the big day. Thank you for ensuring me the dress will make it to DC! Liz is truly a sister to me and deserves a big raise”

“KAT is incredible!! She took the time and patience to help me choose a perfect ring for everyday wear. She helped me make the right sizing choice and was beyond accommodating. The attention and detail that Kat and everyone at DRD provides is incredible. Thank you all so much for everything!!!! I greatly appreciate it.”

“I love this store. We bought one of my daughters' 15th birthday dress there, they have a lot of variety in the store for the girls to choose from and the service is excellent. Highly recommended place.”

“Super helpful! I ordered my nieces quince dress at a different boutique since my brother had already done a deposit. Unfortunately the boutique didn’t include the last doll or brindis with packages. I went to this shop and the lady who helped me was super helpful in helping me place my order for these two very important items. I was completely impressed by the details of the bear’s dress and how identical it was to my nieces quince dress. She was over the moon and absolutely loved it.”

“I was a 2023 bride/customer of Viero and had an overall excellent experience. I went to about 8 different bridal boutiques ranging from high-end couture to mid tier prices and the quality and price point of Viero was unmatched even compared to boutiques like Dmitra's. I worked with Mariana and she was very attentive and well informed. Going into dress shopping I had zero background knowledge on wedding dresses and didn't know which type of style I wanted what so ever. Mariana was very patient and helped me pick the perfect dress of my dreams that was timeless yet unique. I was able to ask for custom additions they accommodated at a very fair price point. I also had them do my alterations and they were very timely, flexible and allowed me to alter several times close to my wedding date as I was loosing a substantial amount of weight. I also bought my veil there which I highly recommend as well. Upon your appt, I recommend looking through their site and noting the dress names you'd like to try on into your online appt and also calling them to ensure they have it at their location/ allow them to ship it in time. Overall I would not hesitate to go here and purchase your wedding dress.”

“I wrote a review over a year ago for Michelle and for some reason, it is not showing anymore so I am reposting!Where to start! Wow, Michelle! The bubbly, ball of energy you want when you’re searching for your wedding dress. My friend & I stopped in on a whim to try some styles. I had the best time! Michelle was patient, helpful, and FUN. I tried on many dresses and she was right there with me! She never pressured me or made me feel rushed. Luckily, we were the only ones in the store at the time. They had an amazing selection of styles to choose from and so I was really able to tell when I found the one. Thank you Michelle!”

“I had gone to a couple of different bridal shops and Alice in Ivory was by far and away the best experience I had! Lindsey was so helpful and had already pulled the dresses I was interested in while being knowledgeable about all the rest of the options as well. Their selection is so gorgeous and I felt like they paid attention to what I was really saying before suggesting anything. The area that you get for you and your guests is so nice and the natural light is some of the best in the game to see what you really look like. I purchased my dress in mid-September and received it a couple of weeks ago and WOW their attention to detail in packaging my dress was amazing. The value is outstanding with personal touches like a card from the shop and a jewelry dish as well. My dress is even more gorgeous than I remember (they keep all their dresses in great shape even with people trying them on all the time) and they put it in the nicest hanging bag. I would recommend going to Alive in Ivory and having Lindsey help to everyone :)”

“I had such an AMAZING experience at Honey!!!! Unfortunately I cannot recall the name of my stylist (it was a few weeks ago at this point) but really wish I did because she was BY FAR the best consultant I’ve ever had. She was so knowledgeable about genuinely everything, from details of each dress to what alterations would be needed to tailor each dress, to even customizing with different sleeves, etc. She really took the time to make EVERY gown look the best it possibly could on me, whereas at other salons I’ve been to they kinda hastily pin you and hope for the best, and I had to leave it up to the imagination. I knew exactly what each gown at Honey would look like on me, and every detail I could ever want! Unfortunately my search came down to a dress from Honey and a dress from a designer that Honey didn’t carry, and the other dress won-but not by much! I loved my experience at Honey and would recommend to genuinely anyone.”

“Vwidon is the best!! I came to Vwidon after going to all of the Gold Coast bridal boutiques, and Carla's intimate, clean, calm bridal atelier was a breath of fresh air! Carla designs all of her own gowns, and does a lot of custom work as well, combining elements of her original designs. I ended up deciding on a custom gown, which Carla sketched and then designed, exactly as I described it. I was amazed at my first fitting how attentive to every detail Carla was, and how she really brought my vision to life. She is a thoughtful, calming, and extremely thorough designer, and she has a great eye. I'm super happy with Vwidon, the custom dress process has been so special, and I recommend Vwidon to anyone looking for a classic, timeless, less blingy style, with beautiful fabrics.”

“This place has lots of beautiful dress. Huge variety. The best part is that the customer service. Teresa was very welcoming and friendly. Pancho was very helpful in helping search for our sizes. We felt very comfortable to take our time and shop. I will definitely continue coming here for all my dress needs.”

“At Luminous Bridal Shop, I was truly impressed by their exceptional alteration service. The staff at Luminous Bridal Shop are highly skilled in providing expert alterations to ensure that your wedding dress, men’s suit , any kind dress you want to altered she will fits you perfectly.”

“This is Quince World for real. So many beautiful dresses to choose from. The Quinceanera felt well taken care of. The appointment went smoothed and organized. I like that they offered tips/advice on dress picking as she picked out 15 dresses. Was able to try 4-5 dresses on during her appointment. They are appointment only! They offer other packages too! Pillows/money boxes/custom champagne glasses... the whole 9. The employees were able to answer every question we had and the fact that they offer 100% customization to a big % of their dresses is definitely a great factor. No videos or photography allowed. No restroom for customers.”

“So many beautiful dresses, with great, comfortable quality and outstanding customer service. She listened to what I wanted and when she knew I found the one she threw that veil on, and I said yes to the dress!”

“Had a wonderful experience here today. Moon was so helpful and she has a beautiful variety of dresses for a GREAT price! I definitely need to find more formal places to go so I can support this lovely business again.”

“My experience at Jenny Yoo Chicago was a 10/10! I can’t speak more highly of all the employees. Emma helped me find my dream dress! She was so patient and full of knowledge. My first bridal appointment I had a huge list of dresses I was interested in, she was thorough and efficient with keeping tracking of the everything! My second appointment I was conflicted between two dresses that I loved & had such a hard time choosing between (a good problem to have!). Emma was, again, so patient and accommodating! My final appointment was to find bridesmaid dresses and bridal accessories. I left this appointment with my sister, MOH, so impressed with the care we received. Emma is just a SUPERSTAR.I’ve felt so cared for the entirety of my dress/accessory/bridesmaid selection. Anyone looking for a wedding dress should include Jenny Yoo in their list of salons to try!”

“She did a great job hemming my dress. She took 4 inches off the bottom and I paid $60. It was ready before I needed it, she communicated great via text, and was very flexible with her schedule.”

“Bright and airy studio that makes trying on dresses so fun! They have a wide variety of styles to choose from which helps weigh your options and styles. I worked with Rachel and had an amazing experience with her-- she is calm, relaxed and sets the tone for the whole experience to make the whole process less overwhelming and all about what you love and feel good in. She quickly takes in notes on how you are feeling and what you are/aren't loving about a dress and can pull new styles based on what she picks up. I was so surprised at some she pulled into the room for me, that I didn't initially select, ended up being some of my favorite styles! Would absolutely recommend booking an appointment and working with her at Lovely Bride!”

“Alice Padrul wedding couture is beyond a dream dress - her wedding dress collection can be best described as “wearable art.” I had the honor of wearing and owning one of Alice’s dresses, and other pieces I covet & will continue to cherish for a lifetime. There is no other designer in Chicago like Alice Padrul.”
