I first went to another bridal boutique and was shocked by their selection and prices. They maybe had 20 dresses and the least expensive one was 4,000. When I called Something Blue to make my appointment I was a bit nervous at first because I didn't know what to expect. The lady who answered the phone was so kind, gracious, and expressed how excited she was to meet my family and I. Once I walked in, Joan was such a great help! She showed me their endless selection of bridal gowns and their prices are so reasonable. I am so thankful that I found my dress at Something Blue! Everyone there was so kind, and accommodating! I highly recommend this bridal boutique to every bride!

I am from Springfield, Ohio and was visiting friends in Parrish, Florida. I was looking for a specific Jasmine Bridals Jade mother of the bride gown for my daughter's wedding and Kristi had the sample in the store! Kristi and all the girls in her shop were AWESOME and I purchased the dress to be shipped to me in Ohio!!! I could not have been more satisfied!

Trillion was phenomenal! She helped me try on about 18 different dresses and I felt very comfortable with her. She was very patient and helped guide me in the right direction. Even on a budget! She made my experience that much better. Thank you, Trillion!

Trying on wedding gowns was my absolute favorite part of wedding planning, and I got really lucky -I found my dress at the one and only boutique I went to, Something Blue Bridal Boutique. It was such a fun experience! My alterations came out PERFECT, my dress fit like a glove. I couldn't be happier!

Everyone at Something Blue Bridal was so helpful as I was trying to find the perfect dress on a small budget. I didn't feel rushed or like I was bothering the consultant I worked with, which was how I felt at other stores in the area that I went to. I ended up with a beautiful Allure dress and the price was AMAZING! I came in under budget with a dress that looks like it cost way more!
I also got my bridesmaid dresses, mothers dresses, and accessories through Something Blue. They have such a huge selection to choose from, took the time to work with me, my girls, my mom, and my mother-in-law on different styles and colors to make sure everything would come out just like I imagined. The veil, earrings and cuff bracelet I purchased for myself were discounted since I bought my dress through them, which I thought was such a great value considering that their prices are already very reasonable.
My girls and I just began our alterations at Something Blue and we also got discounted prices on these we bought our dresses from them! I couldn't believe it -- I saved money on my dress, got discounts on accessories AND alterations! I am so happy that I was able to work with Something Blue Bridal to make sure I look exactly how I imagined on my wedding day!

I could not be happier with my dress and accessories from Something Blue Bridal Boutique. Everyone was so helpful, outgoing, and considerate of my timeline and budget. My dress looks like it should have cost thousands of dollars but was under $1,000! I was shocked that I could get what I wanted in my budget. Between purchasing my dress, my bridesmaid dresses, alterations, and accessories, including jewelry and a veil, Something Blue had everything I needed and at such a great value for the quality. I felt amazing on my wedding day, thank you Kristi and the other consultants at Something Blue!!!

I had the pleasure of working with Joan at Something Blue! She was such a dear! So helpful, patient, and had excellent recommendations! I am a complete Disney NUT and thought the Disney Princess dresses from the Alfred Angelo Fairytale Collection were too big and princess-y for me, but after trying on about 15 dresses, Joan pulled the "Princess Jasmine" gown and said "This will look so gorgeous on your figure, I promise!" I put it on, and it was complete water works! It made it so special to find my perfect dress and for it to be a Disney dress!
Dana did alterations on my dress, as well as my mom's and daughter's dresses and she did such a phenomenal job! My dress fit me like it was made for me when she was done with it! I was very pleased with my experience with these two ladies!!

I found my dream dress with the help of Kristi at Something Blue Bridal Boutique! My amazing experience started before I even stepped foot in the salon. I live an hour away from the salon, so before my appointment they gladly answered ALL of the many e-mails I sent regarding their selection, specific dresses, etc. I was a little worried when I first walked into the salon because it is rather small, however do not let space fool you! They have hundreds of beautiful gowns to choose from....and the prices are amazing!!! I would have easily thought the gown I chose cost double of what I paid for it.

Also, they don't try to simply sell you on the more expensive dress. I only had to try on 5 gowns before I knew I had found the one. I made sure I did not look at the price tags before I tried them on so I would not have a biased opinion when picking. I ended up narrowing down my choices to 2 dresses. Kristi excitedly agreed that the one I was leaning towards was best for me. When I went back in the dressing room I was shocked to look at the price tags. The dress I ended up choosing cost half as much as the other dress I was deciding on!! Not once did they try to push me to get the more expensive dress to boost their sales. They really enjoy helping you find a dress that is perfect for you.

I cannot wait for March when I get to wear my gown :)

The only reason I deducted points for flexibility was because I was not allowed to leave my dress at the salon until my alterations appointment. I can understand there point of not having enough storage room for every bride to do this, however, I live with my fiancé so I am PRAYING he doesn't get any funny ideas and peek in our guest room closet before the big day!

After visiting several other bridal shops, Something Blue Bridal Boutique stood out from the rest. The staff at Something Blue is unmatched. Everyone is so helpful and their friendly personalities really make finding your dress a fun experience. My mom and I were so pleased when we left because we had a great time, didn't feel pressured, and appreciated how much time they spent with us to make sure everything was exactly what I wanted.
They have a great selection of wedding gowns and accessories. I purchased my gown, veil, headpiece and bridesmaids dresses from here and everything was perfect. From my first visit, to alterations appointments, to picking everything up pressed and ready to go, Something Blue Bridal made my experience enjoyable and stress free and I couldn't have been happier!

Something Blue Bridal Boutique is WONDERFUL! small store but had a big selection of beautiful dresses. I think I made the staff nervous because I have brought 9 women with me (mom, mom-to-be grandmothers and four of my bridesmaids) I wasn't too happy with their reaction to my large group at first but they accommodated nicely. With the help of the staff I found my dream dress and gorgeous dresses for my bridesmaids in less than 2 hours. I would also like to add that they have an amazing lace seletion if you were considering that for your dress. Overall very pleased with the staff and dress options & would reccommed to any bride.

I've been shopping with Something Blue for years; Kristi and the girls are always so amazing. Their seamstress, Anthy, is amazing. Anthy will tell you EXACTLY what your dress NEEDS. You can be sure when you leave with a dress altered by Anthy, it's going to be perfect.

Kirsti also outfitted the Mister and his groomsmen, they looked perfect. When he said he was letting the boys pick their own shoes, I ran to Something Blue to fix that. The girls just laughed and handed me the book, let me pick, and told me not to worry, they would make sure the guys got their measurements. When Mister texted me a picture of himself in his suit (3 days before the wedding), I freaked. The picture made him look like a giant box. My Maid of Honor and I rushed to the store to see it in person. I've never seen Kristi laugh so hard; but she pulled out the jacket and put it on him and sure enough, it fit perfectly.

I've always loved Something Blue; I knew they'd be perfect for the Wedding Day and they did not disappoint.

THANK YOU!!!

I have to say Something Blue is AWESOME! They have a huge selection of dresses and anything else you may need. The staff were all friendly every time we went in. Christy has all the patience in the world! I had a few changes to my wedding party, and each time I told her, she said it was no problem! Cruz helped me pick out my dress, and it was perfect! I'm so glad a friend recommended them to me. If you want a large selection with a small boutique personal experience, this is the place! Thank you girls for all of your help!

I live in Los Angeles but got married in Sarasota and found my dress at Something Blue in Bradenton. They made it extremely easy for me to find a dress and worked with my travel schedule for fittings, alterations, etc. Not being a very "girly" girl, they still made dress shopping comfortable for me. The price of the dress was also very good, despite being a "new release." I would never have found that dress at that price in Los Angeles. I also bought my hair piece and a brooch for my dress here. However, those were much more pricey (but I don't think they were too far above market price). The alterations department worked with me to put bra cups and the brooch on my dress (along with hem and other alterations). They steamed the dress before the wedding too. Everything worked out fantastic and I would recommend at least shopping there for a dress before buying one.

They were awesome. I loved their boutique. I drove an hour and a half north to visit their shop. I was in love with 10 dresses, but ultimately found the one. It was a size 12 and I am a size 2, but after their seamstress was finished with it you would have never known she had cut over half of it off. My dress was perfect.
