I found my dream wedding dress at Angela's Bridal

I cannot say enough amazing things about Angela's Bridal! From the moment I walked in, the entire experience was nothing short of incredible.

When I arrived for my first appointment, I had a few ideas in mind and pulled some dresses I thought I loved. But after seeing what I was naturally gravitating toward, the consultant assisting me suggested a gown I hadn’t even considered. It wasn’t one I originally picked — and it ended up being the one. Their expertise, intuition, and genuine care completely changed my experience.

Every single staff member I worked with was so kind, passionate, and supportive. They made the entire process feel effortless and joyful, from that very first appointment all the way through alterations. The alterations were phenomenal — everything fit perfectly, and I felt completely confident and cared for every step of the way.

I truly ended up with my dream dress and have never felt more beautiful in my life. That feeling is something I’ll never forget. I cannot recommend Angela’s Bridal enough to any bride looking for not just a dress, but an unforgettable experience.

A perfect bridal shop!!

I had the very best experience buying my wedding dress at Love Story! Every person I spoke with there was so friendly and helpful, making the daunting process of choosing "the" dress so much easier! The selection of dresses was really impressive and I was able to try on a ton of different styles to see what looked best. When trying on dresses, they were able to help me see different visions and were really patient when I was indecisive between a couple at the end of my appointment. I'm ultimately so, so happy with the dress I chose. I got to celebrate saying yes with some champagne and the shop made me feel so special and bridal all day!

I also chose to get my veil, alterations, and preservation done with them, too. All experiences were awesome and it was extremely convenient that I could have everything done within the same group.

I would highly recommend Love Story to any bride!!

Amazing experience and LGBTQ+ friendly!

I’m leaving this review for my wife because her experience at Angela’s Bridal deserves to be shared. She absolutely loved working with Janet and Katie, just wow. From the moment she walked in, she felt celebrated. They were so personable, friendly, and full of the best energy. They made the whole experience warm, fun, and totally stress free.

They are also truly a safe space and incredibly LGBTQ+ friendly, they didn’t even bat an eye. My wife felt genuinely seen, supported, and comfortable every step of the way. And the best part? She found her absolute DREAM dress.

Thank you, Janet and Katie, for making the moment so special for her and for us. Highly recommend.

Perfect dress and shopping experience!

I had already been to 6 other stores, but the experience at Angela's was different. From the start, it was very welcoming and personal. The unique ability to walk the whole salon and choose any dress to try was a welcome change from other appointments. I even was able to try on a dress from a mannequin and that turned out to be the one! From there, scheduling delivery, fittings and dress cleaning/preservations with their partners was easy. My dress was delayed and Angela's was prompt and professional in rectifying the error, getting it to me with plenty of time. Highly recommend the Angela's experience!

5 Stars ⭐️

From the moment I walked in for my appt, I was greeted and helped out right away. I told the ladies what I was looking for. I wanted something specific and I never felt pressured or felt like they were rushing me. They had a very good selection. It was the very last dress that the associates had put on the rack that I had said “yes” to the dress. Lindsey was my associate and she was great! They made the dress selection process very simple and fun for someone who was looking for something specific! They answered all my questions and made my dream dress come to life. Angela did my alterations and she was fantastic. I also went through Love Story and had my dress cleaned and preserved which was a quick and easy process. The whole process from start to finish with Love Story was seamless!

Unique Expertise

You will not find a better crew of women to help you find your dream dress and be your ultimate hype ladies. They LOVE what they do and it shows in their expertise, care, and genuine excitement for every bride that walks in there.
Most bridal shops can have an idea of what may be possible in alterations or helping you envision some customizing in your dress, but not many actually do the work and know the true extent of possibilities. With Janet at the helm, and her years of experience in costume design and then bridal - anything is possible. She makes sure her team is knowledgable as well so you can rest assured you will know of every possibility and have an answer to any question you may have.
While it may seem like a fairytale when you walk in there, they take your needs and your requests very seriously. My consultant, Meghan, understood exactly the look I was going for, and also knew to bring dresses that may have been slightly outside my qualifications because she knew they could get them there. And that's exactly what happened! I found the perfect gown, and Janet and the team did custom sleeves for me to make it completely my own and fit my vision. They know gowns, they know brides, and they know magic.

The best for your wedding dress!

Both A Love Story Bridal, as well as the alterations studio are amazing. They truly will make you feel special and celebrate you as you pick out your dresses and try them on. Ever since they moved to the Route 4 location, I knew I wanted to go there to try on dresses, and they did not disappoint! Here is one little thing that went the extra mile for me - I had 2 appointments with 2 different bridal stores the day I went to try on dresses. A Love Story Bridal was my first stop and I fell in love with the first dress I tried on. I kept hesitating on saying yes to the dress as I felt obligated to go to the other appointment I had made for that day. I am not one to like to cancel appointments last minute. The wonderful attendant I had that day asked me what my reservations were about saying yes at that moment and having my big celebratory "Yes" moment. When I explained to her my debacle, she put me at ease and told me she would handle calling the store for me and that it was nothing I needed to feel any guilt about. Once I knew this was off my plate, I felt ready to say yes and they popped the champagne and I got to have my big moment! It was this little extra help they gave me that makes me very happy to recommend them to anyone looking for their wedding dress. The alterations studio is also fantastic. I know I gave them quite the project with altering my dress - both because I had lost a significant amount of weight, but also cause the dress itself was complicated and I am short, so there was quite a bit of complex hemming they had to do. The dress came out amazing and fit me perfectly. I would not have trusted anyone else with altering this dress!

The best bridal shop in the area!

rom the moment we walked in, I knew I would find my dress here. Each employee was extremely welcoming, but dress consultant was the best! Made me feel super calm and let me take my time as this is a huge decision. A few months after I found my dress, my grandmother became very ill, I called Angela's to see if I could put the sample gown on again in front of her. They immediately said yes absolutely, and allowed me to come in that weekend with her. They did not rush us and allowed for such a special moment and memory I will cherish forever! It didn't stop just here, each fitting with Angela and her staff was fantastic, again just made me feel very calm during a stressful time! Super hardworking and amazing at what they do!
You will have no regrest if you were to buy your wedding dress here, the best in the area!!

Must Visit A Love Story!

I had the best experience at Love Story by Angela's Bridal! The entire process, from choosing my dream dress to alterations and gown preservation, was seamless. The ladies at Love Story were incredible in helping me find the perfect dress. I really appreciated that my family and I could pick out dresses for me to try on. Then, the stylist I worked with selected dresses based on the feedback I gave her. I never would have tried on my dress if it weren't for my stylist. If you're a bride in the Capital Region, be sure to visit Love Story!

Do yourself a favor & go to Love Story!

I had an amazing experience from start to finish. I couldn’t decide between my two favorite dresses, and they were able to combine them into the dress of my dreams. The shopping experience was so fun, and low pressure. Plus, the Alterations Studio is incredible, and makes magic happen. I cannot recommend them enough!

Every bride that comes to us having gone to Angela's in search of the perfect gown raves about their experience, how much they loved the service, the selection and the atmosphere. I have never had a bride tell me that they had a negative experience. I know because as a tux shop brides come see me after they have finished putting together their own and the ladies attire. I give my friends at Angela's my highest recommendation.
