    Willing to go the distance

    We initially had a misunderstanding in the alterations process. I took the dress home even though I wasn’t quite sure and when a new seamstress pointed out flaws I became really upset. With less than 3 weeks till my wedding I thought it was a lost cause, but the store owner reached out to me and is making it right. It is clear she really cares about her business and her brides. I’m in shock and so happy that this is being resolved and can’t wait to wear my dream dress for my big day.

    Amazing Customer Service

    Archive was the first bridal boutique that I tried on dresses and one of my friends had gotten her dress there as well. The fitting experience was a 10/10. The sales associate listened closely to what I was envisioning and the dress she chose for me to try on first ended up being my wedding dress. The shop was perfect for having some family and friends with me and they were very welcoming to our group. The experience was a dream. I also went with Archive for my alterations and I am SO HAPPY that I did. My dress ended up needing some restructuring and a lot of alterations to the top of the dress. The owner of Archive was truly invested in making sure that the dress fit me perfectly and we had about 5 fittings with her, going back and forth with the seamstress and I'm so happy to say that she made it possible. The customer service was unparalleled and they also gave me a complimentary dress cleaning. I recommend Archive to all my newly engaged friends and love how friendly and kind all the sales associates are - they truly make you feel like a bride!
