A most lovely team of caring and beautiful souls awaits you at Angel Bridals. I cannot say enough about their personalities and service..... I was told the seamstress had "hands of gold" - this is an understatement. Fabulous!

I found the most beautiful bridesmaid dresses at Angel Bridal! I live in Connecticut and my girls are from all over the island. AB was extremely accommodating since we weren't all able to come in at the same times.
I didn't purchase my wedding dress from AB but they did my alterations which were perfect! All the women in the shop are super nice and supportive!

Angel Bridals went above and beyond to make my dress fit perfect for my wedding. They were very professional and cost effective, They were great at handling getting two wedding gowns altered within a week of my wedding. The seamstress did an amazing job. I Highly recommend this vendor.

Dress & Attire
I absolutely LOVE this shop. To the point that when I picked up my dress, I was actually sad that I wasnt going to have any more reason to go there! Let me start by saying that when I walked in this store, I already HAD my wedding dress
or so I thought. Ok, I found a dress at another shop, that I liked
it was being discontinued, and I realized that I could get the sample at a really great deal. I was not in love with the dress, but I did like it, and my mom and sister loved it. I couldnt pass it up. I just figured that as self critical as I am, I wont love myself in any dress, so I should just take the deal. Well, a few weeks later, I took one of my Bridesmaids to Angel Bridal, to look for BM dresses. I had seen Angel online, and thought the shop looked cute, and I was planning on going there to look for my own dress, before I wound up with the dress I bought. So, I knew I wanted to look at BM dresses there. First of all, I emailed the store owner, asking about making an appointment, on a Sunday, since thats the only day that was good for my BM, because thats when her husband is home to watch the baby. When I didnt hear back right away, I called, and asked. I was told that they werent open Sunday, I said thank you, Ill call back
Then, I check my email, and Rosemary, the owner had written my back. She said, I think you called about a Sunday appointment, but on the phone you didnt explain the situation to the extent that you did in your email. I would be happy to open the store for you on Sunday, just tell me what time you want to come! I couldnt believe it! They were going to open up just for me! So, right away, I knew I was on the right track. We get to the store, and Rosemary let us in, and locked the door behind us, we had the place to ourselves, and Rosemarys full attention, it was GREAT! The store is adorable, I felt like I was in my grandmas sewing room, instantly comforted and at home. Colleen tried on some dresses, and as she did, I looked around
and thats when it happened
I saw faux fur peeking out from one of the racks. I thought maybe it was a cape, which I had been considering, since I was having a winter wonderland theme, and really wanted a wintery, snow princess type look. Well, it wasnt a cape, it was a DRESS! I didnt even want to look at it. It was too perfect, and I knew I was just going to fall in love, and be even more disappointed with my first purchase. Well, Mom and Rosemary convinced me to try it on. That was it
I felt like Holiday Barbie, and I felt beautiful
something I didnt think was possible. Rosemary explained that this dress was a sample, from a company that went out of business a few years back. Most dress shops send their samples back to the manufacturer. However Rosemary said that if a dress is different from what they have on the racks, theyll hold on to it, to give brides more options. Thank goodness for that! The dress was a bit snug, but she said that there was plenty of seam allowance, and that it could easily be taken out. She saw my hesitation, but also, could see that I was in love
I was just so anxious at the thought of buying a second dress! What would I do?!? So, she said that shed hold it
take my time, try to sell the other dress, decide what I want to do. Well, there was no question, I had to have this dress
I told her what the other dress cost, ($400) and she said
thats what this one is
That was it
I came back two weeks later, and bought the dress
I still have that first dress hanging in a garment bag, unaltered, waiting for someone to love it as much as I love its replacement
Now, back to the shop!!! Colleen picked out a dress and from that, we decided that the girls would all choose Alfred Angelo designs, just so the colors would be the same. I said, I hate strapless dresses, so Id prefer if you dont choose strapless. And Id like the dresses all to be gown length And told them to all choose whatever they liked. I went with them separately, so no one felt pressured, and Rosemary gave everyone personal attention ever time. They have so many different sample sizes too! Two of the BMs were a size 22 and they were able to try on dresses. One was a 16, she tried on dresses, and then there are the size 0-2 girls and they tried on dresses! It was wonderful; no one had to feel left out! One of the girls even chose a dress that had spaghetti straps, but came with a wrap, and they created sleeves out of the wrap! It came out amazing! In the end, everyone was happy, and looked gorgeous. I am SO grateful to Rosemary, and this store, I cant recommend them enough!! The only suggestion I have, is that if youre going to have anything done to the dress, ask if it falls under the alteration cap. They set the cap at $65, but I think thats just for basic alterations, letting out, taking in, a hem, etc. Anything else will be extra. Some of the girls didnt realize this, so were surprised by their alterations price which caused me MUCH anxiety. But, Rosemary did the break down, and I saw why they charged what they did with the custom alterations, and it was fine But, in retrospect, that all could have been avoided if wed asked more questions. But, it all worked out in the end!! If youre looking for that dress shopping experience you always imagined, GO TO ANGEL BRIDAL!!!

A small bridal shop where you get a lot of personal attention and great service. I found my dress in another shop and brought all the info to Angels, where they ordered it for me. The bridesmaid dress I found originally wound up to be discontinued and the staff at Angels was so helpful in locating and ordering new dresses. They are so friendly and have a lovely selection of accessories. Highly recommended!
