Beautiful dress from an amazing boutique

The consultants here made finding and purchasing a dress a wonderful experience. They have a good selection of of larger sizes. My dress was beautiful! Alterations was willing to do a French bustle which was perfect for my dress. I highly recommend this boutique.

Great Experience Overall

Adriana helped me find my dress in the Chicago location. When I had my appointment I knew exactly what dress I wanted and luckily she had it available to try on! I knew the moment I put it on that it was the one for me! We closed the front of the model dress and raised the back to somewhat hide some of my tattoos. As this dress was an older model from Martina Liana, we had to custom order the veil. I was working on losing weight at the time and planned to lose 20 lbs from sizing to my first fitting. I achieved my goal and was glad Adriana helped me buy the correct size! Adriana had me try on 3 other dresses for fun just to be sure. You have to do all alterations during the week in Oak Brook which was a trek after work in the city of Chicago to get there in time. Regardless, everything in alterations was very affordable in their flat rate for all the work they do for you! I am only 4'11" plus the weight loss so my dress had to be very altered. I would purchase from them again!

Wedding Day Perfection!

I highly recommend Bella Bianca to help you find your dream dress! Lauren made my experience unforgettable. She guided me through every step of the process, asked insightful questions, and truly understood what I was looking for. With her keen eye for dresses, she pulled out the dress I said yes to. Lauren is friendly, honest, and an absolute joy to work with! Bella Bianca also did an amazing job with alterations! The entire experience was wonderful for my mom, mother-in-law, and me!

Had my princess moment at Bella Bianca!

(This review is for the Chicago location)
I found my dream dress at Bella Bianca! My stylist was so supportive and sweet, and really listened to what I wanted. My friends & in laws also had a really fun experience and I will always remember the moment we shared a glass of champagne after I found "the one" (from Galia Lahav). Highly recommend for anyone who wants their dress shopping experience to feel special and luxe!

Bella Bianca went Above & Beyond

Katie at Bella Bianca in Chicago really went above and beyond to help me find my perfect dress. I went into my first appointment with a dress I couldn’t get out of my mind, but wasn’t available anywhere in the US. Katie put me in other dresses by that designer, as well as other beautiful dresses that fit my style, but I still couldn’t get that dress out of my mind. Katie was able to call the designer and get a swatch sent to the store. I went back a few days later and based off the swatch and trying on similar dresses by the same designer, made the easy choice. The whole process was so smooth and I’m so thankful for everything Katie and the other girls at Bella did for me! I got my dress fitted at the Oak Brook location and it turned out perfectly. I cannot recommend Bella Bianca enough!

Best bridal salon

My wedding was in November of this year, and I am so happy that I found my dress at Bella Bianca. Both my sister and sister-in-law had found their gowns there in past years, and as soon as I visited the Chicago salon when my sister shopped for her dress, I knew that I wanted to have that boutique experience for myself as well.

The salon is everything you could possibly want in your wedding dress shopping experience: not only is it stunningly beautiful inside, but the entire staff is incredibly welcoming and will make even the not-uber-feminine girls (like me) feel super comfortable and ready to try on different things. My bridal stylist was Ashley Golding and she was fantastic. I didn't really know what I wanted all that well, and she somehow still knew how to pick a variety of dresses that would eventually help me land on THE dress. I think I only tried on about 4 dresses before I found the one! Ashley was not pushy in the slightest, and if there was ever a gown that was outside my budget, she made sure that I was aware of it before even looking at it. That was very much appreciated. Ashley was also very good about staying in communication with everything throughout the process. As a planner, I really appreciated this, too. Lastly, Ashley helped me pick my hair pin and earrings that really helped tie the entire look together, and there isn't a single thing that I would change. I really did feel glamorous and beautiful, and most importantly, I felt like myself. You can't put a price tag on that.

I can honestly say that the wedding dress shopping experience at Bella Bianca was one of my favorite memories of my entire engagement/wedding. Even though I was one of many clients, everyone there made me feel special. You're not just getting a dress here - you're getting a beautiful and unforgettable experience!

Amazing experience!

I had a really great experience at the Chicago location of Bella Bianca. Katie was an amazing associate who listened to me and was really cognizant of my price range and preferences. She made sure both my appointments were special and I felt really comfortable working with her. The space itself is really clean and spacious. Because of COVID, you can't touch any dresses and they don't really want people wandering and looking at the hanging dresses. Even though I would have loved to walk around, I did notice the dresses I tried on were much cleaner and in better condition than other stores I went to. I loved my experience and highly recommend!

A truly memorable experience

I could never have dreamt of a more incredible bridal experience. Bella Bianca Oakbrook had been recommended by a friend and was the first stop in my journey to find a wedding dress. I was truly lucky to work with Taylor, whose contagious positivity and charisma immediately made my guests and I feel comfortable. I walked into the experience pretty open-minded about styles and fits. The best choice I could have made was to let Taylor take some creative reign in exploring dresses with me. It felt like a true partnership and Taylor's knowledge and expertise was very impressive. I felt as though she truly listened to my feedback and was honest and transparent with me throughout the experience. I walked into my first appointment with the intention of eventually finding a great dress... but what Taylor helped me find was a wedding dress that I could never imagine experiencing the big day without. I cannot rave enough about my experience with Taylor and the Bella Bianca team. I highly recommend Bella Bianca Oakbrook for anyone getting ready for their big day. Already planning my visit back to the store as a wing-woman for friends getting married in the future :)

Wonderful Experience at Bella Bianca Oakbrook Terrace

I have nothing but positive things to say about Bella Bianca! My consultant, Kiara, and seamstress, Anita, went above and beyond to ensure I felt beautiful on my wedding day. Kiara walked me through selecting a gown and my accessories. I was never discouraged from scheduling multiple appointments, nor was I rushed during those appointments. Anita made my dress fit perfectly, and it was a joy to chat with her during our 4 alterations sessions. I highly recommend Bella Bianca for their wonderful customer service (and incredible selection)!

Best. Experience. Ever!!

Where do I begin with this incredible and inspiring group of women?! I started the search for my wedding dress in the middle of a pandemic, so I truly did not know what to expect from the entire process. Bella Bianca was the first stop in my line-up of stores, so again I went into the experience with an open mind given the times we are in. I have to say that from day one, the ladies at Bella Bianca went above and beyond to make me feel like the most special bride in the world. I was lucky enough to have Taylor as my bridal consultant, who ultimately helped me pick THE dress. Not only did she listen intently to what I dreamed of as a bride, but provided helpful feedback and insight thanks to her extensive experience in the wedding industry. She did not pressure me at all into buying the dress that day, but instead gave me the advice to think about this decision and do some more try-ons before committing. Honestly, it did not take long for me to realize that no other store compared to my experience at Bella Bianca, and no other dress took my breath away like the one Taylor found for me. When I returned to Bella Bianca to buy the dress, Taylor helped me accessorize my dress with the most stunning veil, hairpiece, and earrings. They were even able to custom-make the accessories gold to match the rest of my jewelry on my wedding day! Taylor made sure that my "yes" to the dress/accessories was so special, and even had champagne there for me and my family on that day.
Additionally, I did all of my alterations at Bella Bianca, which I highly recommend. The staff there was so knowledgeable, talented, and insightful. They even provided advice on undergarments to help everything sit seamlessly on the wedding day. Throughout my fitting process, I had the incredible consultant Raychel by my side. She stopped by each one of my appointments and was not only my hype girl but also provided helpful feedback during each fitting. It always made my day to see her!
On my last dress fitting, both Taylor and Raychel came to see me in my dress. I cannot tell you how much it meant to me to have both of these ladies be so dedicated in each step of this process and truly being cheerleaders for me along the way. My dress was truly a dream on our wedding day, and I continue to get compliments about it to this day! I will never forget how incredible I felt on our wedding day, and I will always have a special place in my heart for Bella Bianca and the incredible women who work here!

"I Do" Weddings with Rev. Phil Landers Wedding Officiants

I had the joy of marrying Melissa to Travis. Natalie, her sister, was right there by her side. It was one well organized wedding. Melissa was a joy to work with. I was at the grand opening celebration for Bella Bianca. What an impressive venue. I can't tell you about the dresses, it's not my area of expertise. But I can tell you about the kind of people the owners are. I highly recommend them.
