I was terrified not excited about dress shopping. We made a two hour drive to this cute little shop to see a specific dress. When I arrived for my appointment the dress was in my room waiting, Sue also quickly pulled a few others to try on. I felt comfortable there was no pressure at all, staff answered all my questions and accommodated me in every way. Come time to pay the dress was several hundred dollars LESS than priced because we bought on our first visit. So thrilled with everything! Especially my gown!

Charlotte Bridal provides exceptional service. I knew that they offered a terrific service, as my sister had purchased her dress there a few years ago. I felt comfortable immediately, despite the fact it was my first attempt at shopping for a wedding dress. The saleswoman was respectful of my smaller budget, and never once made me feel as though my budget was inadequate. She helped me try on several dresses that did not meet my needs, as I had my heart set on a tea length dress. After some searching, she found a beautiful ball gown, which she showed me could easily be converted into my dream dress. The fit was flattering, and I loved the details. After the saleswoman pinned up the dress bottom to my desired length, I realized it was the perfect dress for me. I received high praise for my unique dress the day of my wedding, and feel that I was able to find the perfect dress at a reasonable price at this location. I would highly recommend Charlotte Bridal based on my experience with my own wedding, and having observed my sister’s experiences with her wedding. A huge plus, is the discount offered if it is your first dress appointment, and you find your dress!

I was so nervous about dress shopping, but it turned out to be such a great experience! Everyone put me at ease, and I ended up choosing the first dress I tried on. The bridesmaids dresses and the groom's and groomsmen's tuxes were all amazing too!! Everyone raved about them all night. Can't thank everyone enough!!!

I found a beautiful dress the first day I went in! They were more than friendly to me. I also ordered the suits in which they stayed open longer for my fiancé to get fitted since he has a job where he's all over the state all the time. Thank you everything was perfect!

Small Town Shop with a Big Town Selection
This shop has a huge selection that can accommodate a variety of shapes and sizes – which you often find isn’t the case when shopping in bridal shops – and the staff are welcoming and pleasant. I worked with Sue who is one of the most delightful women I have ever met. She always wears a huge smile and made my dress buying experience a total breeze.
Charlotte Bridal Boutique & Formalwear responded with the following comments:
Bevin, it was our pleasure assisting you with your dream wedding! Thank you so much for the kind words! The wedding photos are gorgeous, and you are so beautiful in your bridal gown! Thank you for Shopping Local!!! Please stop by and visit us soon, we look forward to seeing you! Lynn, Sue and all the gang at Charlotte Bridal Boutique!

I went to Charlotte Bridal in search of a dress that would work for me, I am really selective in what I will wear and thought that it would be almost impossible to find what I had visioned to be the perfect dress. I met Debbie and she helped me find a few dresses. I tried the first one on and loved the way it fit, just being me I wanted a few other things that would make it right for me. Lynn the owner came out to assist and she listened to what it was I wanted and had these fabulous ideas, she explained it and said her seamstress could do all of that. After a few fittings my dress was the most perfect dress for me. love love loved it.. Side note my husband started clapping when he saw me...what butterflies I had. They are the best.

I have had such an amazing experience every time I have worked with Charlotte Bridal. I am in a wedding tomorrow and yesterday realized that my dress was too big and needed some alterations. I went in this morning in a panic and they took measurements and altered my dress for me. I don't know what I would have done without their help on such short notice. I am getting married in April and I had a wonderful experience with trying on dresses. I went in with a style of dress that I had in mind and after trying on a few and realizing that the style was not for me, Sue brought me a couple different dresses that were amazing. She held the one she liked best for last and that ended up being the dress I picked. Lynn, Sue, and Connie have been helpful beyond measures and it's nice to go into the store and they know who you are and remember things about your wedding. I would go here instead of places like David's Bridal anyday, they have just as much of a selection and are about as knowledgeable, and nice as you can get.

This is the best store I have ever been to! I had the worst experience at Dazzle Too in the Town Center Mall, I called Ted crying the day before my wedding in need of a Tux because the first place I went to ordered the wrong color, the wrong size, and the pants were stained with rust and dirt. Ted took the time to calm me down and reassure me that he could get my husband fitted for his Tux and that it would take about 30 minutes and Jeremy could take his tux home that day. When we got there Ted did not have any white Tux or pink vest, so he started making phone calls and told us in the meantime he told us we were more than welcome to anything in the store, whether it was on a manican or on the wall he said it didn't matter whatever we wanted we were more than welcome to it. They couldn't get the white or the pink but they got him fitted with a black tux and pulled a vest off the manican and sat me down and gave me water to help me calm down. When we left we were so happy and so thankful that Ted and his girls took the time to help us and make sure we happy and taken care of. They went over and beyond what was required of them but did it with a smile on their face and without any problems or reservations. I would recommed Charlotte Bridal to anyone. They are absolutely wonderful!

I exhausted myself looking for dresses from Chicago to Florida. When I found Charlotte Bridal, I was so relieved. The choices of dresses was extraordinary and the amount of time Lynn and her staff invested in helping me find exactly what I was looking for was above and beyond. I would recommend shopping there for all of your bridal needs. You will feel exactly as a bride should during this special time in your life.

I simply CAN NOT say enough about Lynn and the girls at Charlotte Bridal. Just when I thought it was hopeless that I would ever find, "the one," they gave me just the right push to go with my gut and take a chance on a dress I had only seen in a catalog. My dress was so perfect, but it really has nothing to do with this review. My review reflects the way Charlotte Bridal treated me like I was a truly valued customer. Every time I called, every time I walked through the door, it was, "Stephanie! oh it's so good to see/hear from you!" The girls were so caring and attentive - I commuted 3 hours from Orlando every time I needed to work with these girls because you just can't find good 'ol fashioned manners and customer service in the city as you can when you're back home. I was worried that it wouldn't come in on time, so Lynn put a RUSH on my gown. It came in with plenty of time. Alterations were so carefree and easy - Amy made my dress fit me like a glove - and the bustle she put in my dress was so seamless, when it was up you couldn't tell that the dress wasn't designed that way. I just love these ladies and I'm so thankful to have worked with them. My dress was one thing I never had to worry about. I knew I was in good hands. HIGHLY recommend!! :)

I love my dress!!! They were very helpful and accommodating. My mom and I just stopped in a few weeks after my engagement and tried on a number of dresses. They definitely have lots of pretty dresses, but nothing I was ready to commit to so soon. Right as we were about to leave, one of the consultants said she had something in the back that she wanted me to see. It turned out to be THE dress! I tried it on and it was almost as if it was made just for me. They then showed me the perfect jewelry to compliment the accents of the dress. We bought the dress and jewelry set right then and there. They were so kind to hold the dress there for me until a few weeks before the wedding (almost a year!). Thanks Charlotte Bridal!

I have no idea how to express how thankful we are for the staff at Charlotte Bridal! Lynn and the gang were amazing to me... I'm truly full of gratitude for the way they made me feel during my experience as a bride. I enjoyed every minute of it. My husband, Bryce and I had the wedding of our dreams, and the whole wedding party was well-dressed by this wonderful boutique!! When we got engaged, I began my dress shopping at David's Bridal, where I did not have a good experience at all. I quickly learned that going there was a mistake because as soon as I walked into Charlotte Bridal, it was completely different. I was a valued customer from the start. Before I even spent one penny in the store, I felt like they were there to serve me and help me find the dress of my dreams, which I did! EVERYONE was so helpful and caring. When I found my gown, it was way too big, but they promised they could make it fit perfectly...and I can't believe how truly PERFECT it was. On top of it being too big on the date I purchased it, I lost over 20 pounds during the wedding planning months, and they altered it to look like it was truly made for me. The alterations for me and all my girls were amazing! My dress was my favorite part of my wedding day because they made it to be all mine. My husband and his groomsmen also rented amazing tuxes from Ted at Charlotte Bridal. They came in well in time for the wedding, and the fittings went very well. Anytime there was any issue at all with ANYTHING at all, they solved it quickly for us. The staff at the Charlotte Bridal is so knowledgeable in everything about weddings! It made wedding planning so much fun because going in there was a joy!! The staff was so friendly and attentive. I cannot say enough good things about Charlotte Bridal. I would truly recommend it to anyone with ANY wedding or formal wear needs. They made sure we got everything we wanted at the best price. We ordered EVERYTHING in there- my amazing gown, shoes, my veil, my slip, the ring bear pillows, the tuxes, and even the mother-of-the-bride dress, which was also amazing! They helped my mom search for her perfect gown too, which complimented mine perfectly. There is no store I would have rather used for my wedding needs... They worked hard for every dime we spent in there, and it was an amazing experience!! We are so happy with how everything turned out, and we can't wait to show all of them pictures... It feels as if the staff is a group of our friends now, and that is a great feeling! No matter what we needed or wanted, they made it happen, and we are so, so grateful! Charlotte Bridal certainly relieved a lot of stress from my mother and I by calling every time something came in or was ready for pickup. Truly, truly, we think this personal, wonderful, hometown store was the best choice of our wedding experience!! All of the dresses and tuxes were absolutely beautiful-- we got compliments all day long!! The seamstress, Amy, made everything fit perfectly! Thank you so much to the amazing staff of Charlotte Bridal! I'm convinced that your products and service can't be beat!

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I couldn't have been happier with the level of service I received from everyone at Charlotte Bridal. I went to several bridal shops from Fort Myers to Tampa before coming to Charlotte Bridal and none of them compare. They have a great selection of dresses that are more reasonably priced than any other store around. I got so many compliments on my dress the day of the wedding.

The staff is absolutely wonderful! The seamstress Amy, altered my dress until it was absolutely perfect! I definitely recommend them over any bridal shop in the area!
