Highly Recommend!!!

We had such a great time at Bridal Veil Fashions! Lisa is wonderfully efficient and helpful. This was my first time trying on wedding gowns so I let her lead the experience by bringing me different styles that she thought would work well with my figure. Almost everything I tried on was perfect. We found the most amazing dress and it just happened to be half off. In general, though, the prices at this shop are very reasonable. My perfect dress AND elaborate veil totaled $800 (with tax)!

Lisa was essential when I was picking out a veil. AND she also has experience fitting people for bras. She managed to guess my size just by looking at me; it was very impressive.

THEN she ended up delivering the dress to the place I was staying (I live in Salt Lake City and was visiting family) and offered instrumental tips for bringing a wedding dress on a flight.

The piece de resistance was actually her dog, who wouldn't leave my side the entire time. She offered to put the dog away, so if you don't like dogs don't worry about having a dog around. But I loved it!

Would highly recommend this store to any bride-to-be!

She saved my wedding day

This company saved my wedding day, Lisa went above and beyond for me, she drove through hot traffic to help me in my huge ball gown wedding dress, stuck pins, re-styled trimmed and pinned everything perfectly, without her I would not have been able to take one step in that dress!I had no family at my wedding (I came from overseas and they sadly were refused at the UK-USA border) she helped me in ways I never expected anyone would do. She gave as much energy and effort to me as a bride as a mother and I am forever grateful. I will never forget. thank you so much. highly recommend this team :)

Stress free and fun

Lisa and Gianna are super awesome and very pleasant to work with. They are extremely professional and fun. I have heard about all the nightmares of wedding planning but picking out a dress at bridal veil was a dream come true. Within minutes they had 10 different dresses for me to try on and within an hour I found my dress. I had always loved the flared look but I didn't think I could pull it off. The ladies said try it on you never know until it's on and so I did. I am so grateful for their support if you are looking for a stress free shopping experience this is the place to come to. My dress is elegant and affordable. The service is most excellent and the dresses are high quality and affordable.

Overall experience very pleasant

Lisa, the owner of Bridal Veil Fashions, changed her plans in order to meet with me privately last Sunday. My schedule is very tight and I felt very fortunate that this could take place when convenient to me. It was my first time trying on dresses and it shocked me to find the dress of my dreams which made me feel like a beautiful bride. It was an “off the rack” dress and only needs a couple of alterations. I wanted pure white and this dress needed a tall person with my coloring and figure type. She has a great inventory and was able to match a veil to the dress as well as a rhinestone crown. She guided me with dates for fitting and also has numerous names of seamstresses at her shop and ones closer to me. She supplied a tuxedo catalog without my asking. She is great to work with and I highly recommend Lisa as a go-to person for any bride. She’s very honest and a hard-working lady. I wish I could meet her 82 year old mom who started the business 52 years ago. A wonderful experience which is how it should be during this stressful time of planning a wedding plus during a pandemic.

Went to Bridal Veil Fashions with my 2 daughters to find my dress. Met Lisa & her Mom Joanne, and right away I knew this was the place. They make you feel like family once you walk in the door. My girls found the perfect dress and Lisa & Joanne helped with trying it on and made me feel so beautiful. They were great with helping with picking out the flower girl dresses and working with me living in Arizona. We kept in constant contact, and they were a joy to work with every step of the way. Maria was great to work with as well for the needed alterations, what a beautiful and talented lady. When you walk out of their store you feel like you have know them forever. Thank you so much Lisa & Joanne for making me feel welcome and most of all beautiful. The guests told me over and over how beautiful my dress was.

I love this shop! They worked with me to find a dress that fit my personality and budget. They even were nice to my nutty mom. :-)
They're really into helping you find the dress that is YOU, not hard-selling you on the highest priced item in the shop. I had a lovely time and would recommend them over any David's Bridal or chain.

Wedding dress crisis led us to The Bridal Veil, Capitola and was most impressed by the sales staff who knew their inventory and was able to assist a very particular daughter who didn't want all white, was "hippy-dippy" in her tastes but also elegant. The staff was amazing and even apologized for the mess because a previous client had just left (couldn't find any mess). Most impressed by this person for being adaptable and so helpful. Was able to buy dress right off the rack! A true blessing.
