The staff at Matina's Bridal went above and beyond for me and made finding my dress so special for me mom and grandmother! They made sure everything was perfect including my accessories, veil and alterations. Amazing experience!

This was the third bridal shop I visited and I was struggling because I found a dress I loved elsewhere but it was way out of our budget. Thankfully, my mom & sister convinced me to try one more shop and I found the most perfect dress for my Outer Banks beach wedding (and within budget!). Julie and Bobbi were so helpful. Bobbi pulled probably 10 or so dresses for me and I kept saying no until the last one, which I put on and started to tear up because it was so perfect! So, what I'm saying is, I got a lot of time and attention, which was wonderful. Additionally, they have a seamstress in house which was a HUGE plus for us as the other shops we had to find our own. The tailoring was amazing. We did, I think, 4 or 5 different fittings, each time the dress fitting me more perfectly. Mira also added straps which was a must have for me. I can't say enough kind things about the staff at Matina's. They really made the experience enjoyable, especially for someone like me who was extremely self conscious about the way I looked. I felt like 1 billion dollars on my wedding day... and my husband loved it too :)

Although I didn't purchase my gown at Matina's Bridal, Mira did my alterations. For religious purposes, I also needed a jacket made for my ceremony so that my arms were covered. I was concerned that the jacket would look like an afterthought, instead of part of my gown. Mira couldn't have done a better job at creating the perfect design, and my gown alterations turned out amazing!

Unlike other places that I spoke to, Matina's doesn't give you a set number of alteration appointments, and they allow you to come as often as you'd like to try your dress on. Other shops told me that I would get 2-3 appointments, and then, I'd have to pay to come for additional appointments. The way Matina's does alterations was so much easier! I also live out of town, and Mira came in on her days off to meet with me so that it worked with my schedule.

Mira is talented, professional, and kind. It was a pleasure working with her and Julie.
