All brides should check out this little shop in a strip mall in Addison. The unassuming storefront contains lot of dresses in many different styles and the women running the shop are all fantastic to work with. I tried other chain bridal stores all over the area and I was not finding what I was looking for. After about 20 minutes in this store I found the perfect dress at a great price! The dress arrived quickly and exactly as we ordered. My alterations were done in house and were expertly finished. I came here with my bridesmaids when they were searching for dresses and had a similar experience. The shop was able to tell me over the phone that they had to style of dress my bridesmaids wanted. When we went to try it on we even discovered it was in the color I wanted! They looked fantastic and we had a very easy shopping experience. They were very accommodating about my bridesmaids busy schedules for payment and pick up, and gave us appointments and attention during those appointments even when they were very busy. I strongly recommend that you search for a dress here. You won't be disappointed!

Working with Here Comes the Bride was a breeze! Rose was so nice and accommodating, and I was able to find my dream dress easily. Her selection is large without being overwhelming, and I believe anyone would be able to find their dream dress here. I live in the City, but wasn't looking for downtown prices, which brought me to the store. I do not think I substituted quality, and I was able to find a perfect dress for a price I could afford. If I could do it all over again, I would definitely choose this shop again.

I went here to look for a dress because my friend had a great experience when she was looking for her wedding dress. This was the only place I went. I found my dress right away. The ladies who work here are great!

I purchased my wedding dress from Here Comes the Bride in Nov of 2010 for my July 2011 wedding. Immediately upon entering the store I was impressed with the number of dresses they have for the size of the store. It is not very large (they only allow 1 bride at a time to try on dresses), but they had a great selection especially of the designer I was interested in - Mori Lee. I came in with several Mori Lee dresses I wanted to try on and they had most of the selections in store. I ended up falling in love with the first dress I tried on - a brand new Mori Lee that they had just gotten and was on the mannequin in the front window. I was even more in love when they told me the price tag - it was well below my budget even with alterations.
The dress came in in plenty of time for my wedding and the store held on to it for me until May when I was able to come in for my first fitting (I was an out of town bride). At the first fitting the dress fit like a glove, they just had to take two tucks - one at the bust and one at the waist so that it wouldn't fall down. The shop has several cases of jewelry and headpieces and I was able to find several pieces I liked here as well! I had to come in the day before the wedding for my second fitting because I didn't get back into town until then. Luckily the dress fit PERFECT at this fitting and I took it home immediately. At my wedding everyone commented how gorgeous my dress was and how it must have cost a lot of money. Little did they know that we got the deal of the century! I have recommended Here Comes the Bride to several of my friends and a few of them have already gotten their dresses there too! I would recommend this shop to anyone looking for personal attention in a small boutique setting with a very friendly and helpful staff!

I purchased my dress and had my alterations done at Here Comes the Bride. I felt very comfortable when shopping for my dress. It was one of the only places that I shopped at that did not push me to buy when I was not ready. When I went in to purchase the dress, I was the only one in the store and got great personal attention. After my dress came in they allowed me to come in and try it on with my parents and then again with a friend. Since I decided to have my alterations done there they kept my dress so that I would not have t obring it home and hide from my hubby. When I went in for my alterations, everything went smoothly but when I went to pick it up, there was beading on the dress that I did not want (my dress was simple with no beading). They were very accomodating to fix it and in the end my dress was beautiful on our wedding day.

Diane and Rose are FABULOUS!!! I originally found my dress at another store and it was WAY OVER MY BUDGET. When I walked into Here Comes The Bride, Diane greeted me and once I described the dress, she immediatley picked out the same dress AT HALF THE PRICE!!! Diane was a shoulder to cry on (I was having bridesmaid issues) and each time I went to the store, I was treated like an old friend of the family!
Although the strip mall is a bit run down, DO NOT let that deter you from visiting this store. They are above and beyond the best in the business and I highly recommend them for all your party dress needs!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about this bridal boutique! I knew four different people who got their dresses there, and I wento 11 (yes 11!) places before going to Here Comes the Bride. I had found some wonderful dresses, but their selection was in my price range and their customer service far surpassed all the others. Diane was wonderful! She's so patient and seemed more like a friend - I NEVER felt pressured to buy anything and really appreciated that. I have recommended this boutique to several brides and will continue to do so because they were so wonderful to work with. Thank you Here Comes the Bride for helping me find my dream dress that I could afford!

When faced with wedding planning it is often that minor details are forgotten. Here Comes the Bride took the time to make sure that I and my bridal party ordered dresses that we liked. But also ordered the dresses timely. We had no issues with delivery and all of the girls looked phenomenal. I will definitely refer my friends.

After going to a few high end bridal shops on Oak St (in the city), I came across a segment on 190 North about Here Comes the Bride. I decided to drive out and have a look and was very pleasantly surprised. Not only did I find 8 dressed that I absolutely loved, the dress I bought surpassed the obsession I had over an Oscar de la Renta dress I previously tried on and was about 1/20 of the cost! The ladies at Here Come the Bride were extremely helpful, patient and provided great input and feedback on each dress. I appreciated their help so much that I decided to get my head piece and veil from them as well - all at exceptional prices while not skimping on quality.
The tailoring on my dress was also exceptional. I had Rudy turn my neckline into a sweetheart neckline and it looked like the dress came that way. My dress looked so impecable that many people at my wedding whispered that they were certain my dress was a couple thousand dollars. That's all due to the quality tailoring by Rudy. I've sent a couple future brides to Here Come the Bride since and will recommend them to any and all future brides to come. What a great gem of a shop!

I had purchased my dress form another Bridal salon and I had lost a lil weight from STRESSING! I took the dress to Here comes the Bride and Rudy was marvelous, she made the dress fit my every curve and I was really pleased. It did not take months and months to be altered, like most bridal stores tell you, it was 2 weeks. I returned for the final fitting and it fit like a glove, although they were pricey, I will follow my mom’s advice and say you get what you pay for! Rudy also altered my reception dress and it too was fabulous!

I had the most amazing experience at Here Comes the Bride. I found out 2 months ago that I am pregnant and my wedding is in 4 weeks. I was hoping I would be one of those lucky moms to be that don't start showing until 6 months, but I'm very small and at 14 weeks I already have a baby bump and my chest has gone up a whole cup size. Needless to say my already purchased, very slinky, satin Nicole Miller beach wedding dress was no longer an option. And to add one more hurdle to the mix I live in London so I only had 1 week to find a new dress "off the rack", get it altered and pick it up before I head back to London. Our first appointment was at Here Comes the Bride. Rose is the woman who assisted me and my mom. She pulled all the dresses she thought would look good on me given my changing shape. I tried on dresses completely different to my orginal choice and fell in love with one that I never would have picked for myself. It is so beautiful and amazing. I went from crying about being the fat ugly bride in a too small dress, to feeling like I will look beautiful on my special day and I owe it to Rose and Here Comes The Bride. They sold me the sample I tried on and was able to get me fitted that afternoon. My dress will be ready for me to pick it up by the end of the week before I head back to London. Just an amazing experience. Please add this store to your list of boutiques to visit when you shop for your gown.

Good prices on a wide selection of designer dresses. All my bridesmaids ordered their dress from here. They did a good job with the fitting/size selection and orders came in quickly. Lower sales tax due to the store being located in DuPage county (little added bonus). Did not use for alterations as we found better prices elsewhere.

I had an absolutely wonderful experience with Here Comes the Bride. I had looked at a few places in the city and came nowhere close to finding "the dress." I could only afford the least expensive choices at even the "cheap" places in the city, and I couldn't find anything that I loved.
As soon as I walked in the door at Here Comes the Bride, I was thrilled with how relaxed and calm the environment was. First of all, they let you look through the dresses yourself, which I loved. They had a lot of different styles and "feels." Second of all, there were a number of dresses there I could've been happy with (which is saying something since I didn't find anything elsewhere). The prices were very reasonable and covered a pretty broad range. Okay, and the dress. I LOVED my dress. I could afford my dress. I could afford to have my dress altered appropriately (although it barely needed any alterations). The staff were all very friendly and helpful. I would absolutely recommend Here Comes the Bride.

Rose (and Diane in particular, who I worked with all along the way) are amazing. I had read some reviews about their shop, located in a sort of non-de strip mall in Addison just off 290 and Army Trail Rd. I knew there are hundreds of gorgeous dresses to fall in love with out there...I just didn't want to spend hours and days pining away for the *perfect* dress and never quite achieving it. I wanted to find something reasonably priced and special, and not spend a fortune on it. I had read that HCTB (Here Comes the Bride) carries designer samples and was hoping to find something perhaps even off the rack. Well, Diane helped me to accomplish that goal.
Originally I had tried on about 20 dresses total, and came back to HCTB to finalize my decision. Diane and Rose totally remembered me and were so helpful and honest. I tried on the frontrunner again--a very simple strapless ivory dress with a ruched bodice and a-line. I asked Diane if I could try a couple more dresses that were more glamorous, just to solidify in my mind that what I had chosen was "the" dress. She brought me a sample (by Jasmine, not a label I recognized) and said they had just gotten it in. I tried it on and that became the stunning dress I eventually purchased. For only $700, it was an absolute steal. Strapless ivory with ruching down the bodice, beautiful beadwork (just enough) on the top of the dress, and an a-line skirt opening up to reveal a little English netting, that looked almost like airy feathers from afar, down one side and underneath the dress. I also purchased a perfect veil for the dress from HCTB--Rose discounted the price for me and it worked out just beautifully. I had so many compliments on my wedding day and felt absolutely like a princess...I could not have asked for a more stunning, special, gorgeous dress. And their seamstress/tailor Rudy is fantastic. I spent half the cost of the dress on alterations, but it was totally worth it. Her work is impeccable. She even took an email from me with a photo of the neckline we were going to adjust and replicated what I was looking for perfectly. I am SO glad I found them. Thank you Diane, Rose, and Rudy!!
