Beautiful Wedding Dress & Professional Shop

I loved that I found my dress at Epiphany Boutique. The team there is professional and fun, and I love that the alterations and cleaning were done on site as well, so it was a one-stop shop for me! The package price of alterations and veil length were also a seller for me, so I was able to choose the cathedral veil that I wanted without having to think about any extra coasts. The dress was stunning and I received so many compliments on our wedding day. I felt like a princess and enjoyed laughing and dancing the night away!

Amazing Dress!

I had a GREAT experience at Epiphany Boutique working with Christine. I had significant alternations made to the dress which Christine so graciously listened to each request and created the most perfect dress for me. Living on the East Coast, I had to schedule fittings when I was back home visiting. Overall, we were able to do several fittings which made me feel very confident about the dress. Christine was very accommodating and flexible with her schedule. I am so grateful for the Epiphany Boutique team!

Alterations

Christine was fabulous. She was very diligent and did my alterations to my wedding dress perfectly. I looked beautiful and Christine made my day happen. She also was able to do alterations to a bridesmaid dress I was wearing for another wedding. Would highly recommend.

Best Dress Shopping Experience Ever

I stopped by Epiphany to check out their selection of wedding dresses and ordered my dream dress that same day! The owner is very talented and was able to pick out a variety of beautiful dresses based on a few things that I told her I was looking for. After I picked my dress, she helped me in the following months with fittings and alterations. She was even able to make me a veil using some fabric from my mother's wedding dress. All of this was very affordable. I loved my experience with Epiphany!

Excellent experience with Epiphany Boutique

I really enjoyed my experience with Epiphany Boutique. I started my bridal dress shopping experience in the Bay Area, with no luck. I initially had my eye on a specific Pronovias gown and could not find anything that compared. I called around to several shops and finally found one that carried the dress in store. However, after trying it on in person, I couldn't fathom purchasing it from a strip mall in downtown San Jose filled with pushy employees.

Being local to the Carmel area, I couldn't pass up the opportunity to get in touch with Epiphany (wishing I would have much sooner than I did). I reached out to them to see if they could order the specific Pronovias gown I was looking for and was pleased to find out they could. I made an appointment and tried on a few other gowns in their shop just to make sure I was making the right choice. I eventually went ahead with ordering the Pronovias gown that I loved and am so glad that I did.

The shop is fairly small and a little tight, but the overall feel of the place is welcoming - customer service is excellent. This is a no-fuss type boutique, they get you in the dressing room within minutes of walking in. The ladies don't follow you in to assist you, but are definitely nearby to help if you need it. I liked that about this shop, I wasn't too fond of being followed around the entire time at other shops. The couch area is comfy and inviting, my bridesmaid loved coming with me to my appointments due to this. We both appreciated how straightforward the employees were, their honesty throughout the process was much appreciated.

I luckily slipped into the 'free alterations and veil' deal they had a while back. Although they do not offer this deal anymore, I would still highly recommend this boutique for alterations and veil. I was more than happy with the way my dress turned out and was thrilled to see that it was thoughtfully steamed before I picked it up. I can't say enough good things about Epiphany - don't waste your time, just check them out!

Thank you so much for taking such great care of me leading up to my wedding, I am incredibly grateful that I chose Epiphany for my bridal gown experience!

Amazing Dress and Skilled Alterations

I got my wedding dress here and the experience was AMAZING! Christina was very sweet and did a wonderful job pulling out dresses that I never would have picked myself. I walked out with a beautiful Essense of Australia dress that I LOVED! The alternations and a custom veil were included with my dress and Christina was pleasant and helpful every step of the way. She made sure I was completely happy and that my dress fit wonderfully! My custom veil is beautiful and the changes she made to my dress were perfect. The straps were odd at first and wrapped around my arm only and she recommended moving them down so they were normal straps. This change made the whole dress fit better and more comfortable. I highly recommend Epiphany for anyone who is looking for a wedding dress!!

I absolutely LOVED my dress! The ladies at epiphany helped me to feel at ease during the wedding dress shopping experience. They listened to what I wanted, and ensured that I had my perfect dress. She even altered the back completely, to create a low back dress. The selection of dresses at epiphany is for ALL budgets. The talent at epiphany is incredible, and their work is unsurpassed.
