My mom set up several bridal appointments for me in both Ohio and California and this was the very last boutique we visited. This was by far the smallest boutique, but it was also the most beautiful one, and the experience could not have been more personal and enjoyable. The two women who own this boutique are French with an impeccable taste in wedding style. They have dresses, veils, head pieces and jewelry from designers all over the world in their shop. I just so happened to visit them when they had gowns from Peter Trends Bridal, an Australian designer. I absolutely fell in love with the Bali Hai gown, but the dress was a bit above my price range. I spoke with the two owners of the boutique as well as with Peter Trends directly, and they were able to offer me the sample gown at a discount! It was a dream come true to be able to purchase this dress, and the experience didn’t end there. After I bought my gown, the two women helped me find the perfect veil from one of their UK designers and also offered me a discount. They also gave me accessory ideas which my mom then later used to design my own hair piece with Kate and The Crown on Etsy. They met with me and their personal seamstress at least 6 different times to ensure the alterations for my dress were nothing short of perfect. I have not experienced this attention to detail and level of customer service at any other bridal boutique in Ohio or the Bay Area. If you are looking for a unique, designer gown, unprecedented customer service and two women who will become true friends by the end of your wedding dress experience, then look no further than Nouvelle Vogue Boutique in San Mateo! I’m still in awe by my experience with this place!

Nouvelle Vogue is by far the best bridal salon I visited while I was on the hunt for my wedding dress. I wanted something special and different. They have a highly curated selection of truly unique wedding gowns, you won't find these dresses anywhere else! I went with a flirty, vintage-inspired knee length dress by Francesca Miranda. It's so unique and fun, but still elegant and bridal. I got so many compliments on it, even the wedding venue contacted me after the wedding to find out the designer!

Saideh was super patient with us and so helpful. We altered the dress a couple times to give it the perfect fit, and in the end it was just that - perfect.

I highly recommend Nouvelle Vogue for the bride who's looking for something a little different. You will find the dress that was meant for you here.

I absolutely LOVED my experience with Nouvelle Vogue! This bridal salon had a beautiful selection of gowns. Saida & Chantal were super kind and professional from beginning to end. I almost cancelled my appointment because we were running so late, but they had no problem with us running behind on a Friday night (Black Friday none the less). To be honest, I wasn't looking forward to this shopping experience....I didn't think I was going to find a wedding gown that I absolutely loved, much less on the one and only day I'd ever looked at gowns. I feel extremely lucky that my gown shopping experience turned out to be so great. I did go over my desired budget, but it was so worth it. I didn't want to take my beautiful Cymbeline gown off at the end of the night. I can't give enough props to Saida and Chantal for giving me a wonderful shopping and buying experience for my wedding gown. I also worked with the seamtress (I can't recall her name) the salon works with and she also did a fantastic job on my alterations. Both, Chantal and Saida, were there for the entire process. Thank you so much for making this whole experience so fun & exciting.
