I tried on several dresses before my appointment at Calvet Couture. There were aspects of dresses that I liked but none of them felt like "the one." When I described that I was looking a simple, romantic A-line dress for my September garden wedding, Emily pulled the Rose gown, a dress designed exclusively for Calvet Couture by Penelope & Lex. She helped me envision a few customizations (omitted the sleeves and added a liner to the sheer bodice) and I knew it was exactly what I had been looking for!

I visited this salon several times before I purchased my dress. I went once with a friend while she purchased her dress and I loved how professional and helpful everyone was. I returned once to try on dresses and then a second time with my mother to purchase my dress. My consultant, Lauren, was very helpful in picking out gowns that matched what I expressed my style was. She was very knowledgable of the selection that the store had. She even picked out the gown that I ended up purchasing! The salon has since moved since I purchased my dress, but the previous location was very cute, quiet, and comfortable.

I purchased my dress and veil from Calvet for my wedding last month. Dress shopping can certainly be an overwhelming process but my stylist at Calvet made it so easy! I did go in with a dress that I wanted to try that I saw on their instagram (and it is actually the dress I ended up purchasing) but they encouraged me to try on a few different styles and honestly it just reinforced that I knew I found the perfect one. I never once felt pressured to make a decision and they really take the time to help you find your style. Everyone was so sweet and I didn't even think twice when I needed to pick my veil. I went back to Calvet and they helped me put together the most stunning cathedral veil. Everything came together perfect on the big day!
