Need the perfect dress? Start here!

My only regret is that I didn't start at Milk & Honey!!!! My now husband and I are long-distance, so I tried three bridal shops within a 350-mile radius. At Milk & Honey Bride, I was never rushed, I could tell their selection was extremely top-tier, and Diane and Brooke were fun and professional. In-house alterations were absolutely perfect, stress-free, and very reasonably priced. I recommend Milk and Honey Bride to any and all future brides.

Amazing Experience!

I cannot say enough good about Milk and Honey Bride!

Our daughter and her best friend and maid of honor, and I started shopping for the perfect wedding gown in December.

Milk and Honey Bride was our second appointment, and we didn't have to go anywhere else!

Brooke is AMAZING! She and her staff really listened and selected dresses that were perfect for my daughter.

When we found "THE DRESS," Brooke popped a bottle of champagne for us all to enjoy!

I will always remember the day I went with my daughter and her best friend and maid of honor to find the perfect wedding gown!

Over the course of the year, Brooke and her staff were great to work with! Each member of the team provides individualized assistance. Cheryl, the seamstress who works with Milk and Honey Bride, is phenomenally talented!

My daughter's dress fit like it had been made just for her!

Milk and Honey Bride has gorgeous, one-of-a-kind gowns, and I am so happy that my daughter found the perfect wedding gown at Milk and Honey Bride!

The daughter of our dear friends will soon be shopping for the perfect wedding gown at Milk and Honey Bride; and, my niece is planning to fly in from Connecticut to shop for the perfect wedding gown at Milk and Honey Bride.

I highly recommend Milk and Honey Bride!

Amazing team!!

Milk & Honey was the perfect bridal boutique for our wedding day! When we arrived the team made us feel immediately at home and after describing what I was looking for, Diane came back with the PERFECT Lillian West dress. Brooke and Diane were so much fun to work with!

Milk and Honey Bride- Always has time for you!

In my bridal dress search, I went to three different bridal salons, and I ended up at Milk and Honey Bride, as I was looking for a "boho beach bride" vibe. I reached out to their Facebook page first to see if they had dresses by Lillian West or Justin Alexander, as those dresses caught my eye the most, and when they responded ever so quickly to say yes, they did, I immediately scheduled an appointment to go look for myself. I'm so glad that I did because Diane, Brooke, and their alterations seamstress are SO sweet, personable, and excited to make your special day amazing. The joy they express when you find THE ONE dress that calls to you is clearly evident, and each time you come back for fittings or for whatever reason, it's like you're being reunited with family or friends. They even make it a point to steam your dress and veil prior to your wedding day to be sure that it is wrinkle free! I'm so beyond grateful for Milk and Honey Bridal because they never made me feel like I was wasting their time, and they always just seemed so thrilled to help in any way possible! Thank you so much for all you do for each and every one of your brides! It does not go unnoticed!

Enjoyable experience all around!

I originally found my dress on Instagram. I noticed that milk and honey bride sold the designer of my dress but did not have that exact dress available. They contacted the store in New York that sells the dress and had it shipped in as a rental for me to try on. The rental shipping was fast and they warmly invited me and my family/friends in to try dresses on. We were allowed to bring champagne and everyone had a good time in their beautiful shop.

My dress came in very quickly and everything was pretty smooth from there. I went in for an alterations appointment and they also steamed my dress and a veil before my wedding day.

They made this process so smooth!

Amazing staff with wonderful customer service!

Finding a dress was harder than I thought it was going to be! I am very decisive, but just couldn't find a dress. The warehouse style boutiques was overwhelming and tiring. Milk & Honey has consultants who know just what you want! The y make you feel beautiful and help every step of the way!

Fun, poised, professional pros!!!

Milk & Honey Bride is the best of the best!!! There may be a fair few bridal shops to choose from in Hampton Roads but I’m telling you go. With. Milk and honey. They have out of sight dresses. Stunning inventory and even more stunning service. They will make you feel like you are all that matters snd will bend over backward to help you find your dream gown. It truly wasn’t hard for me as Diane brought me different silhouettes and we narrowed it down. Brooke and Diane are the best !!! You can tell they have a great demeanor and reputation with the designers and colleagues they work with too. So pleased!! I would come for my fittings or pick up and roll in from work not always in the best mood and they had a way of being so kind that the magic of the biz would just transport me and my mom and get us so excited about wedding planning. Thank you Milk and Honey it was a breeze! I LOVE MY DRESS.

Absolutely love!

The women at Milk & Honey are so sweet, helpful, and professional. I was dead set on getting a dress with sleeves. I ended up getting the complete opposite but am completely obsessed with this dress!!

Better than I could have imagined!

Being a plus sized bride was scary for me! I HATE shopping for clothes and the thought of trying to find the perfect dress made me so anxious! When I walked into Milk and Honey, I just felt so relaxed. Diane and Brooke made sure that I felt beautiful and listened to everything I was concerned about! It took me three dresses to find the perfect one; one that was not anything I would have never expected to fall in love with. Size didn’t matter anymore, I felt like the most beautiful woman in the room! I can’t thank Diane and Brooke enough for helping feel amazing for my big day.
