I am so thankful I bought my dress at Pamela Moore and had her do the alterations. Not only does she have a beautiful selection of gowns at reasonable prices that you are free to browse through yourself, she is a true expert when it comes to textiles, sewing and fitting your dress. The sleeves and the bustle on my dress were custom made. I got so many compliments on my wedding day and I told everybody - it was all thanks to Pamela!

I had a wonderful experience working with Pamela. She was so accommodating to our wedding vision, and didn't bat an eye when I told her I would need the dress on a very quick timeline (and that I would need to be able to roll it up into a backpack to hike it up to the ceremony!). She is clearly so knowledgeable about the art of dress making and was such a kind and reassuring presence as I made my dress choice. She worked with me to expertly tailor the dress and gave me options for how to make use of the dress after the wedding- she will be turning it into a skirt and cropped top to wear as separates! The only downside is that there were SO MANY beautiful dresses it was hard to choose!! (I did actually end up with two dresses because I couldn't choose just one!) I will definitely be returning to her beautiful shop as future events come up. I highly recommend going to Pamela for all your dress and tailoring needs!

What a joy it was finding Pamela’s Bridal shop for a mother of the bride dress. As soon as I walked in I felt such a great vibe. I had already purchased 3 different dresses on line and didn’t like any of them. I just happen to stumble on this shop and I wish it had been months earlier. The selection of wonderful fabrics and colors blew me away. And more importantly the personal service and recommendations that she offers just can’t be found buying something on line. She is honest, down to earth and so good at what she does. I found the perfect dress not needing any alterations. A great feeling to support a local business and doing business with someone who really knows her craft and how to make you feel special. Hope more people discover this gem in Brattleboro.

August 4, 2022Where should I begin! For the first time in my life at age 60 I was engaged & soon to wed. And getting off the starting line was one setback after another due to pandemic. I hesitated to deal with any bridal business for fear they would dress me as 20 yr. old. Those I did call or engage in online neither answered nor responded back. Thus they required a payment upfront just to schedule before customer questions. Poor business standard. So after searching the web I came across Pamela Moore Bridal. The 5* reviews caught my attention. After reading many I gave her a call....and she answered! I won the phone lottery! And she answered on her own personal time. Cost free! After speaking with her for 30 to 45 minutes I knew she was the right fit for my bridal needs. Pamela was a joy to work with! She was one on one with me which I really appreciated. I was hesitate towards white but open however not liking it. After trying she suggested color which I stated "most definitely!" Pamela hit the nail on the head for me! She did a wonderful job on my dress. The alterations were customized to detail. Including a Bolero which she made to match should I get cold. It was perfect. Suiting my personality & fit. She sells jewlery also which worked out great for me...perfect set to match. And pricing very affordable. Should anyone ask for who or where they should go for a bridal dress....no hesitation..."Pamela Moore Bridal! Once you enter her shop don't let the "vintage consignment atmosphere" fool you...the polish is in her professionalism, knowledge & personalism! Just know her demand is high during summer & fall. Plan early! I planned 6 months in advance. Thank you Pam for creating a lifetime memory with me & gaining a new friend too!

I was so happy to have this wonderful mother of the bride experience. Pamela came highly recommended from a coworker. She had a great selection of dresses and the most charming personality. I found a dress that I absolutely loved but knew there were a few alterations it would need. Pamela was able to customize my dress to fit me the way I would feel most comfortable. The finished product absolutely exceeded my expectations and I received so many compliments on what a beautiful dress it was! She added sleeves for me and you would never know by looking at it that they weren’t originally part of the dress. She also changed the front panel and hem to help with the flow of the dress. I felt stunning at my daughter’s wedding in this dress and highly recommend anyone looking for one to visit Pamela for what will be an amazing experience!

My daughter is a young opera singer and needed a white recital gown which is harder to find than one might think. We went in and Pamela was extremely knowledgeable and intuitive. It was a nice bonus that she actually once worked in the Opera business. We left without a dress, but while eating lunch she called us and said she had gone searching into her inventory and found the perfect dress. And it was! Diligent, passionate about her art and affordable!

I feel so grateful to have found Pamela Moore Bridals to help me create my dream wedding dress. I wanted to wear my mother's wedding dress but given that it was from the 90's (think puffy shoulders, huge train, high neck) it needed significant alterations to be modern and fit my style.Pamela worked over several months to transform the dress while still keeping the main features intact. The train was significantly shortened with the original lace, the sleeves were removed to create an entirely new neckline with spaghetti straps, and an organza overlay was put on the skirt (and much more). It was better than anything i could have bought in a store and even more special that it was my mom's.I also ended up buying my veil and a jeweled head piece from her shop, which were both prettier and higher quality than anything I saw elsewhere.Pamela herself was great to work with - she offered her own ideas and advice while supporting my vision and preferences. She was communicative and delivered the dress on time. Brattleboro is lucky to have such a talented seamstress in town!

Pamela was a joy to work with through out the whole wedding experience! I found multiple dresses that I loved at her shop and absolutely loved the one I went with. She gave great recommendations of possible changes that could be made and it turned out amazing. She also did my alterations for my dress and for a top that I got for a welcome reception. She was professional and kind through out, and has very reasonable prices. I love being able to support local businesses. Would definitely recommend getting your wedding dress here!

I can't say enough great things about Pamela Moore Bridal ! My daughter bought her wedding gown at a different shop and when it arrived we were told it would need some alterations to fit her perfectly. When the seamstress she had backed out at the last minute, she made a frantic call to Pamela and she told us to come in and she'd take care of it. Once it was tried on, Pamela discovered it had been ordered 2 sizes too big so would need mpre than just "some minor adjustments" , it needed to be completely taken apart and resized! Pamela had it all under control right away and assured us that the dress would be done for the wedding . Not only was it done, it is perfection ! Pamela's work is meticulous, and beautiful ! I know she worked hours on it , well after her normal store hours for us to have it on time. Pamela is knowledgeable, friendly, skilled, wonderful - is all I can say . If you need a wedding gown, a formal dress, or alterations, I can't recommend her highly enough !! Go to her for your gown or alterations and you won't be disappointed!

Had a wonderful experience getting a David’s Bridal bridesmaid dress altered. Pamela was able to get it done quickly and for a reasonable price, and we also had great conversation during the sizing. The dresses in the store were beautiful and I already told myself that if I ever get married, I’ll be trying dresses here first (She also had plenty of other dresses that were not bridal as well.) Already have my eye in one wedding dress in particular. ?

I looked everywhere for a mother of the groom dress. My friend suggested Pamela Moore Bridals in Brattleboro, Vermont. I contacted Pamela through her Facebook page with some questions. Within less than 24 hours, she got back to me, within another 24 hours she had checked her inventory as I had a very specific need. I set up an appointment even though it wasn't during normal business hours. I can't tell you how impressed I was with the service I received. She had several dresses ready for me to try on. She gave honest opinions about the dresses and how I appeared. Pamela wasn't trying to sell me a dress, she was trying to find a dress that I would like and be comfortable in. She measured me, and ordered a dress in the right color and size. She followed up when the dress came in. It's perfect! Best of all it was less expensive than she originally said it would be! I can't speak highly enough of the service I received from this shop. Pamela is one of a kind and although it was way out of my way, I will return there to do business as she's a class act!

Pamela quite literally saved my wedding. My original dress did not get delivered in time for alterations - so I had to find a sample sale gown and hope for the best. Luckily I found two dresses - one that I loved the body on and another that had amazing lace detailing. Pamela took both gowns and merged them into the most beautiful franken-dress ever. You would have no idea they were two different dresses. Her calm demeanor and get it done attitude helped calm my anxious bride energy. She assured me that the last minute gown would be ready on time - which it was. When we realized the veil from my original dress didn't match - she made a new one for me using lace from one of the dresses. Because my husband and I planned our wedding on skis, she added small details that made a world of difference to the dress - such as a firm element to help the back flow nicely as we skied. I could not give her more stars for both the amazing job on my dress and for being such a comfort during the stress of wedding planning when everything seems to go wrong.

Pamela is a miracle worker! I cannot recommend her shop or services enough!! I got married at the end of October 2021after rescheduling several times due to COVID. I purchased my dress in 2019 (at another shop) at a size 14 and needed it tailored to a 6/4. The original tailor assured me they could properly take in the dress but after four fittings the dress was a disaster and we were losing hope that it could be fixed. After bringing the dress to Pamela she immediately knew what the issues were and was very honest that it may even be worth finding a new dress. After having my heart set on the dress we moved forward with my original dress. Pamela had to reconstruct the dress several times to repair issues from the other tailor and straighten out the underlying layers. She did an amazing job and I couldn't be happier with the end result. The dress fit like a glove and you never would have known what it went through to get to the final result. I highly recommend her and will be a forever customer for future tailoring and dress needs!
