    Great Experience and Very Accommodating

    Wonderful experience with Lovely! There was a specific dress I was interested in, but they did not have a sample in my size. The woman I worked with arranged to have it bought so that I could try it on and it ended up being the dress I purchased for my wedding. I really appreciated their accommodating me and would recommend to anyone!

    Perfect experience

    Lovely Bride not only provided the dress of my dreams but also an amazing experience. Another store made rude comments to me so I was apprehensive to continue wedding dress shopping. Lovely Bride gave me a wonderful and FUN experience. I loved getting my dream dress from this location.

    Perfect Bridal Salon Experience All-Around!

    I bought my wedding dress from Lovely Bride DC back in February and my experience was nothing short of fabulous. On my first visit, I was by myself and Tabby helped me FaceTime my mom to share in the experience. Several dresses were pulled based on my choices made online, but a couple other dresses were pulled as we went along and Tabby honed in on what I was interested in. I loved the way they help you reach a decision, and everyone in the building was so supportive and kind - even if they were not directly helping me. A wonderful experience from start to finish and of course, a beautiful dress. Thank you!

    Knew what I wanted before I did.

    Lovely bride has a selection of absolutely stunning dresses. My consultant let me pick a few out and based on those made a suggestion when I wasn’t really feeling any of the ones I had picked out. I ended up crying over how much I loved the one she picked out for me and bought it!

    So welcoming and amazing dresses

    I loved my experience buying my dress here. It felt so personal and like they truly cared about my experience. I was really indecisive and came three times and they were so wonderful, supportive and helpful. I love their mission of inclusion and supporting small woman-owned dress designers. Highly recommend

    Your perfect dress is here

    I LOVED my experience here. I found the most amazing gown and couldn’t have had a more fun time. My friend and I came here to find my dress during the pandemic and lovely bride went out of their way to make it a memorable experience. Thanks, Lovely Bride! I would recommend anyone to find the dress of their dreams here.

    Fantastic experience at Lovely Bride DC

    After trying on dresses at two other salons, I had the most wonderful experience at Lovely Bride with Tabby. She took the time to get to know me and what I was envisioning. She found THE perfect dress for me, but did not pressure me to buy it at that first appointment. I came back for a second appointment about a month later, and I was so happy that Tabby was there to help me solidify and buy my perfect dress. Thank you, Lovely Bride and Tabby!

    Better Wedding Dress Experience

    Lovely Bride is unlike the “traditional” bridal boutiques in that you are able to see, for the most part, the inventory online for your specific store location, before booking and going in! This was crucial for me since I had been to 5 boutiques prior to making it to Lovely Bride and regret not trying them first! The service was amazing from the start, I made a list of 5 I wanted to try online when I booked the appointment, then the sales associate was able to bring me additional options and I finally found the one! Their dresses are also clean, smell nice, and are in good condition—which is NOT a given at all other boutiques. The dresses at Nordstrom bridal were a disaster, covered in makeup, smelled like BO, etc...Lovely Bride was brand new compared to that! It is stressful waiting for the email and call that your dress is in, but you just have to breathe and trust the process—they will call! They suggested a couple tailors, I didn’t go with those options as they were significantly more expensive, but do be aware they do not tailor for you at the store. I didn’t have any issue with this, but some brides do and want an all-in-one situation. They also offer accessories like hair combs, veils, jewelry, but this is no conveyed so much online, but your boutique should have ample options. I also found the booking process super easy—online, don’t have to email back and forth or call anyone—and I was able to make an appointment for 2 days out! Would recommend this to any bride who wants to know what she will be seeing before hiking out to the store!

    Great experience finding the perfect dress!

    We had a great experience with the team at Lovely bride - they made sure they understood what I was looking for (and took into consideration what actually looked good on me) and I ended up with the most unexpectedly perfect dress!

    Best bridal experience !

    Words can’t express how great my entire experience was with lovely bride DC! From the gorgeous decor to the personalized customer service, this boutique is a bride’s dream dress stop. I ended up purchasing my dream dress from them & couldn’t have imagined anything else. I have already had two other friends schedule appointments there. They are a must! Xx

    Great experience and perfect dress

    My search for my dress was long and arduous. I went to tons of boutiques and tried on over 20 dresses. Lovely Bride was a unique and pressure-less experience and I wish I had started with them. Unlike the other places I went, nobody tried to get me to wear a dress I wasn’t interested in. Further, their website has all of their dresses and prices; there’s no hiding the ball. I went on their website, found the one dress I wanted to try on, tried it on, and purchased it about a month later. And it is PERFECT. I felt like I stepped out of a bridal magazine or Vogue. It was also exactly what I was looking for but couldn’t find anywhere else. I love Lovely Bride.

    Nice experience

    I loved my dress from lovely bride. The experience was well managed and they have a unique selection that you won’t find from the more traditional bridal shop designers. In particular, I found many dresses here better suited for petite frames, more trendy, and yet still timeless. I went to about 5-6 shops in the DMV and this was my fave.

    Love Lovely Bride!

    I found my dress here! They have a lovely, quiet shop and I felt very relaxed trying on dresses. I wasn't really expecting to find my dress here since they seem to market to "boho" brides which I didn't think fit what I was looking for, but nevermind that! I love love love my dress and found the process of ordering with them to be very simple and straightforward. Keep in mind they don't do alterations but do provide recommendations for that.

    It Does Not Get Better Than Lovely Bride

    I had the perfect experience at Lovely. I had been to 3 stores my first day of shopping and started the second day at Lovely. Not only is the store beautiful, but their staff are extremely friendly, attentive, and helpful. The first dress I tried on ended up being the one, but my consultant was super helpful when I wanted to keep trying on other things to be sure. The selection is beautiful - lots of unique styles that felt both bridal and modern. Picking up the dress was easy as well and they were flexible to fit me in when my mom and sister were in town. I rave about Lovely to everyone - if you can, make it your first stop!

    Obsessed!!

    I don’t even know where to begin. Best day of my life. My stylist clearly reviewed the in-depth profile I filled our prior to the appointment because she pulled three gorgeous dresses from the designer I’m obsessed with, one of them was even one I’d pinned on Pinterest before. She was so knowledgeable and helpful, she knew exactly what look I was going for but pulled a few “wild cards” just to make me try some different styles. I fell absolutely in love with the first dress I had tried on (the one she pulled and the one from my Pinterest board) and even though it was just slightly over budget, they were willing to work with me when it came to accessories. I’m so happy and seriously counting down the minutes to the day I can wear my dress again!

    Lovely Bride DC is an amazing shop that makes you feel so welcomed when you first walk in. Danielle is the best - she was amazing to have on my initial try on day and throughout the whole process. My dress was my favorite part of my wedding (besides the groom). Lovely Bride worked with me being and out of town bride by holding my dress until I was back visiting. Danielle also worked with my last minute to buy and ship a headpiece. She even contacted me the week of to make sure it arrived on time. Loved Lovely Bride, loved Danielle, and loved my Limor Rosen dress.

    Visited Lovely Bride for their Leanne Marshall trunk show. I have been to one other Lovely Bride location and the service at Lovely Philly was absolutely impeccable compared to any other bridal shop I have been to. Julie, who helped me, knew exactly what I was looking for. She didn't overwhelm me with tons of dresses that she knew I wouldn't like, but still had me with her looking at dresses. She was so professional and I appreciated her pulling me away from everyone else to ask me what my budget was. She was absolutely wonderful!!! I highly recommend Lovely Philly!

    I had a wonderful experience at Lovely Bride! For starters, it's a beautiful shop - the displays are gorgeous and approachable, the seating area is comfortable, and they have a great curated selection of dresses. I worked with Claire, and she was sweet, patient, and knowledgable. She actually picked out my wedding dress - it did not catch my eye at first but she suggested it, and she was so right! I never felt pressured (which I did at some other bridal shops) - the experience was relaxing and fun.

    Lovely bride is true to it's name. Walking in you automatically feel special. On the second story of a row shop in Georgetown, this boutique is quaint, but open and airy and truly beautiful. The staff catered to our group like we were queens. Our consultant Claire, was knowledgeable, professional, and extremely kind. She taught me a lot about wedding dresses, and helped me find the best silhouette for my shape. I was very grateful to have her help me, and she really made for an ideal experience. Thank you Lovely Bride. :)

    I ordered my wedding dress from Lovely Bride, and they are phenomenal! So friendly and helpful throughout the entire process! Their shop is absolutely gorgeous, and it definitely makes you feel like you're having a very bridal experience :) I personally worked with Jessica and could not rave more about her! She was so welcoming and patient while I tried on lots of gowns, and was so on top of the ordering process and gave me regular updates. I will be purchasing my veil through Lovely Bride as well, and have taken all of their recommendations on where to get alterations and order bridesmaid dresses.

    Thank you Lovely Bride for a wonderful experience!

    I LOVE Lovely Bride! I must have tried on about 40 dresses at 5 different shops, but I returned to Lovely 3 times and my dress was actually one picked out by a Lovely consultant. After a long, difficult weekend trying on dresses in which I felt more stupid than bridely, I returned to Lovely at the last minute (I called them in a panic on a Sunday morning and they fit me in for an early afternoon slot). I was in tears as I described how frustrated I was, and the consultant said she would just bring in a few ideas. I tried on the dress she brought in and instantly fell in love. Lovely Bride really saved the day while staying in my budget!
