So glad we went!

We decided to go to Modern Dress last minute after not having luck elsewhere when a friend recommended it. I’m SO glad she did! The staff was so helpful and they weren’t overbearing/pushy. I had such a pleasant experience and found a gown that I absolutely love. I can say enough good things about them.

Modern Dress

Modern Dress was the best decision I’ve made thus far in my planning process! They made my experience so comfortable and meaningful. I was able to find my perfect dress there and have a blast at the same time. I’ve recommended Modern Dress to all my bride friends and one of them just said YES to her perfect dress. This place is the best!
