The Greatest Wedding Dress Shopping Experience

Michelle is absolutely wonderful as well as Tiffany who was the stylist that helped me find THE dress. Highly professional and personal. This experience was better than I could’ve ever imagined. They listened to me and made me feel beautifully bridal!

Such a kind and welcoming experience

Having gone through only three dresses, Lisa took note and went back and brought out a few more and I instantly found the one! That kind of an eye for someone’s personality and skill from a dress studio owner cannot be matched in my humble opinion! We had a blast picking the dress and the entire experience was so relaxing and fun and the staff was so so sweet! I highly recommend TMM for any bridal shopping experience!

I have attended several of the Magic Moment Sales, and I LOVE the concept of being able to buy and sell previously owned wedding items. This helps the brides to be save money, and the ones who have already said I DO , recoup some of what they spent.
