Found my perfect dress with the amazing help of Georgette and her team!

Had a great experience with Georgette and her team! I had a very vague idea of what I wanted my wedding dress to look like, and with the few details I gave her she was able to help me find the perfect dress! My wedding was originally scheduled for May but because of Covid I had to postpone until October. Georgette was kind enough to hold my dress there for me until I was ready to pick it up.

Angels who saved me!

Georgette and her team saved my wedding dress!

I ordered my dream wedding dress from a different store that ordered my dress two sizes too small and then ruined it with an extremely poor tailoring job. Three months before my wedding, my mom reached out to Georgette for advice and Georgette became my absolute angel! She went above and beyond to help me navigate the difficult situation with my credit card after the original store refused to refund my money.

Given Georgette’s experiences and expertise with the Elysee/Enzoani dress designer, she was able to expedite an order for my original dream dress in the correct size, began alterations within a week, and then worked with my busy schedule over subsequent appointments to make sure the dress fit perfectly in all the right places. They even tailored my veil so it matched perfectly with my dress. Everything was pressed and beautiful for the day of my wedding. Their tailor Marie is professional, patient, and very meticulous. Their work is such high quality, all-inclusive, and well worth the price! My dress fit perfectly, and I felt so beautiful and so comfortable! Without the Papers and Petals bridal team, I would not have been able to wear my dream wedding dress and feel as beautiful as I did. I would recommend them to anyone looking for someone they can trust to help navigate the confusing and expensive wedding dress industry.

Exceptional Selection and Service!

Georgette and her team were phenomenal! Besides just finding me a perfect, absolute stunning wedding dress, she puts care and love into the experience. Unfortunately, I was a COVID bride and had to reschedule my wedding four times. Every time Georgette worked to ensure my dress was ready and adjust any fittings as needed. She also checked in on me multiple times throughout the process with encouraging messages and thoughts. She had an amazing number of dresses to select from and a fantastic seamstress to make any alternations or modifications. I would highly recommend Paper and Petals to any and every future bride!

Georgette is a hero!

Georgette and the whole team at Papers and Petals were absolutely amazing to work with. Georgette was able to read my style to a T, getting me into the dress of my dreams within minutes of my appointment. She was thorough, thoughtful and ensured that I was happy every step of the way. I can't recommend her expertise and quality enough when it comes to making such an important investment.

I can’t say enough good things about the ladies at Papers and Petals. When we first arrived, I thought I had already found my dress, but once I came in and described what I was looking for, it was evident that the dress I had found was NOT “the one.” Georgette has an amazing eye for style and personality, and the first dress she put on me was the perfect dress and the one I ultimately purchased. All the fittings also were extremely smooth – the staff was very professional and talented, and they were able to make the small alterations I wanted to the dress. The whole team always had my best interest at heart and was always honest and helpful with us.

From a personnel standpoint, I feel that Papers and Petals cannot be beat. Georgette has hired a lovely group that is friendly, kind, supportive, and just fun to be around. All of my bridesmaids, my mom, and myself all had so much fun every time we went to the shop and walked out laughing. Georgette and her team felt like family and we were so grateful for their support and friendship throughout the process. I am so grateful that we found them and would recommend them to every bride! Their service and the quality of their dresses cannot be beat.

After visiting 3 other salons, I pretty much had an idea of what I wanted in a dress. When I came to Paper and Petals, I described what I was looking for and after only 3 tries, Georgette found The Dress! I had 100% of her attention during my appointment and I liked that she pulled the dresses for me (otherwise I might have been overwhelmed by the selection). I got fitted for alterations only once and voila.... it came out perfect! Received many complements on the dress from family and friends but what mattered most of all is that my husband loved it!

I was looking for a bridal shop that carried dresses from the Maggie Sottero line, and came across Papers and Petals. I am so very happy I did...From the very start, it was a wonderful experience! Georgette, the owner, treated me like a daughter and worked with me very closely to find the perfect dress and achieve the most ideal alterations. The end result: a dress that looked as if it was made for me. You won't find a more kind, loving and professional lady as Georgette. She truly cares about the bride and wants to make the experience a pleasant and memorable one. At my final fitting, she had tears in her eyes, hugged me and wished me the very best in life. I was truly touched by her genuine emotion...
