Frances is the best!!

I want to extend my heartfelt thanks to the Frances at the Bridals by Elena who played a crucial role in helping me find my dream wedding dress. Her expertise and attentive guidance made the experience truly special, and I am incredibly grateful for her assistance.

Amazing 10/10

This was by far the best experience dress shopping. I had been to one other place prior. It was ok but just wasn't my style she I don't feel like they truly catered to my needs. However Frances made the world of a difference. She was attentive. She heard my needs and DELIVERED. She was personable. My family and I truly enjoyed our experience and I would definitely recommend to anyone.

When our daughter got engaged in NC, I insisted she come back to MD to purchase her bridal gown, our first and last stop was Bridals by Elena! Hands down the best gowns and the best alteration specialists in town. An added bonus is being right next door to their beautiful amazing shop in Gambrills. I highly recommend Bridals by Elena for all your formal wear needs, their more than wedding gowns!
