The best dress!

This was actually my first appointment and the staff was soo helpful and nice! They let me try on as many as I wanted and cheered me on and hyped me up in every dress I put on. They made the whole experience so much fun and so easy :)

Great experience! Comfortable, Efficient, and Personal

I highly recommend Encore for your bridal shopping needs. I have had a great experience with them. I was concerned about shopping during COVID, and wanted the experience with my closest ladies. Kathy and her team went above and beyond to make sure everyone was comfortable and safe. They have a great selection of dresses at a wide range of prices. She was encouraging as I tried on dresses and offered accessories to make the dress my own. It was a fun and memorable experience!

The best decision I made

I met Kathy, the owner, at a bridal expo in Cartersville. She was warm, outgoing, and bubbly. She wanted to know everything about my plans and really made me feel like we were friends. This was a huge check in my box. This personality stayed consistent with every visit. Everyone that walked through her doors, she greeted them with warmth and kindness. Kathy was honest but kind when I tried on dresses and allowed me to pick what I wanted. Her staff is just as friendly as she is. I never felt judged for my size or my opinions. They listened to my thoughts and concerns during the whole process. I am so glad I got my dress from them!

Very friendly and beautiful gowns

I went to this location before me and my husband found our venue about a year ago and Mrs. Kathy was so nice and when I went back this month she had the same energy as before. I found my dress and she complimented me on every dress I tried on which made me even more happy to be around her and to pick my dress from her shop. Thank toy Mrs. Kathy for being so helpful and helping me find my dream gown.

10/10 Service and Helpfulness

From searching for the dress to buying all my dresses, Kathy and Irma were amazing helping get everything. I adored my Morilee dress and thanks to Irma it fit fantastically. I ordered all 7 of my bridesmaids dresses through her too and she helped pick sizes and shapes to fit everyone! 10/10

Buying my wedding dress and veil

I was so pleased with the whole staff, especially Mrs. Lorena, who was VERY patient and caring with me to help me find my wedding dress and veil! I said yes to the dress here with their help and am very thankful!

Couldn't have asked for a better experience!

I'm not from Georgia, but my family lives there now. So over Thanksgiving break this year, my mom arranged for her, myself, my sisters, and my grandma to visit Encore so I could find my wedding dress. I was skeptical at first because it is a rather small shop, HOWEVER, they have an extremely affordable selection with a lot of different styles (and it's not overwhelming like some places).
When we arrived in the morning, we had the whole place to ourselves, which made the experience even more fun! Jessica and Kathy were extremely helpful, especially since I went in not really knowing what I was looking for. They helped me find my wedding dress style, and even though I had an appointment booked somewhere else (the "say yes to the dress" store), I ended up canceling because I found my DREAM DRESS at Encore!

OVERALL: I would highly recommend to any bride looking for a more personal, private experience. I did not feel pressured at all and was able to take my time and find my perfect dress. They had a nice sitting area for my mom, sisters, and grandma and we had so much fun! They even sent a sweet handwritten card to my house in Texas after I purchased my dress. Overall I loved my experience here - thank you Encore!
