Low Maintenance Vibe, Amazing Listeners

Myself and my 3 guests had the most lovely time at The Sentimentalist. They are a very no pressure shop but are able to actually hear and listen to your wants and preferences to help you find the perfect dress. They have a wide variety of dresses with a very low maintenance vibe, so definitely give them a chance if you are in the Atlanta area and shopping for wedding dresses.

Wedding Dress Dreams

My wedding dress shopping experience was top tier. I had an amazing time trying on various dresses as The Sentimentalist Team is full of humans who love weddings and helping brides find their dream dress. There were many beautiful dresses and accessories that you cannot find at just any bridal shop. I LOVED my dress and it was perfect for my October 2023 wedding at Lanier Islands. 10/10, definitely recommend.

Amazing experience

Shopping at The Sentimentalist was one of the best decisions I made concerning my wedding dress! I am a queer, nonbinary person, and the shopping experience was a little intimidating. Reading reviews for The Sentimentalist and seeing the both timeless and off-the-beaten path attire they offered were what drove me to make an appointment, and I’m so glad I did! Everyone on the staff, and especially my stylist, were super kind, patient, respectful of all genders/races/bodies/budgets, and knowledgeable. The shop itself is beautiful and the selection of dresses has something for everyone. I would recommend them to absolutely everyone!!
