About

Renee Grace Bridal is a wedding dress studio based in Cincinnati, Ohio. In 2018, owner Teresa Eklund decided to use her three decades of gown-making experience to start manufacturing her own beautiful bespoke dresses. She and her team of expert designers specialize in comfortable made-to-order gowns, crafted with a distinctive pear-shaped fit for brides that are larger in the hip. Each piece is designed to evoke a feeling of modern elegance and feminine romance and is crafted using the finest fabrics and laces.

Services Offered

Renee Grace Bridal offers two options for creating your wedding dress; the In-Studio Atelier Appointment and the At-Home Atelier Appointment. The In-Studio Atelier Appointment allows you to visit their Cincinnati showroom to meet the team, browse their catalog of pieces, and describe your dream gown. The At-Home Atelier Appointment allows you to design your dress without even leaving the house. After your in-depth 30-minute online consultation, your dress will be shipped to your door and a fitting will be arranged based on your schedule. From there, Teresa and her team will talk you through the measurement process and will handle any alterations for a seamless and stress-free fitting experience.

Special & customized

This team is stellar. They gave me options of what dress would fit my body best. Never have I worn a formal gown so incredibly comfortable. No need for those horrible undergarments! My favorite thing was that my gown had built in support and felt non-fussy. They truly are educated on body structures and styles that fit best. I didn't feel like it was an off the rack gown, similar to others. It felt custom made. I highly recommend Terri and her genius team for their QUALITY work, attention to detail and approachable atmosphere. This is a designer, high end establishment with reasonable prices.

Diamond in the rough

This was a gorgeous boutique inside and out. My family and I were very comfortable and had lots of fun. It was honestly was hard to pick just one dress. Terri (the owner) designs these gorgeous gowns and it shows. Her creative talent isn’t like any other bridal store I’ve been to. I felt like I was glowing during my time there. The atmosphere makes you truly feel like a bride. I highly recommend this boutique.

Beautiful dress and wonderful experience

My daughter became engaged in early January with a wedding date planned for early September. I made a trip from Idaho to Ohio to help her search for a dress in March. Renee Grace was the first shop we visited. To be honest, I had no idea how much to expect to pay for a wedding dress. Since Renee Grace custom makes their dresses, I assumed we were starting at the most expensive shop. I thought that starting there would give us an idea of what the high end cost for a dress would be. Every dress at Renee Grace was beautiful. My daughter fell in love with the first dress she took off the rack. We continued on to two other shops that day. My daughter loved the last dress of the day also. It was similar to the dress at Renee Grace but I was stunned to see the price. The dress was $800 more then the dress she found at Renee Grace. We were also going to have to pay a rush fee of $250 and hope the dress came in time for alterations. The cost for alterations could add another $500-$1000. We took pictures of the things my daughter liked about the dress and made an appointment to go back to Renee Grace. For a very minimal fee, they assured us that they could make the changes in the dress my daughter loved there. My daughter had 5 fittings , most of them with Caleigh. The owner, Teresa, oversaw all the adjustments made. There was never any fear of the dress not being done in time. From start to finish Renee Grace was a wonderful experience for my daughter. We had the choice of fabric, dress pattern and dress details. With my daughter's choice of fabric Renee Grace also made her veil. This is the kind of experience every bride should have. The dress was beautiful with a great eye to detail-from the special bustling all the way to the tag sown in with my daughter's name on it. This was a wonderful experience from start to finish. I cannot recommend this shop enough.

Wedding Gown

When I decided to elope last minute, during covid no less, I thought my dreams of that perfect dress would have to be compromised. When I spoke to Terry, she assured me that she could, without any doubt, help me through a virtual fitting AND get me my dress in less then a month. Guys, I NEVER tried my dress on until one day before got married and it was STUNNING! Highly recommend Renee Grace, the whole experience was seamless :)

Stunning, Customized Gown

This amazing team customized my wedding dress to be exactly what I wanted! I tried on other dresses elsewhere, but the stunning detail on Renee Grace dresses is incomparable. The team will make your dress with creativity, care, and expertise. My dress was crafted based on my body measurements and it fit me like a glove. I felt so comfortable, supported, lovely and free to enjoy my wedding day while wearing it! They are passionate and wonderful to work with! They listened so well, dreamed with me about my dress, and made it happen. I can’t recommend them enough to any bride!

Exceptional Design and Quality

I couldn’t have been more pleased with the design and quality of my wedding dress! It was beyond what I could’ve dreamed. Terry did an expert job of incorporating all the features I requested into a gorgeous and cohesively designed final product. She also has a wide variety of beautiful fabric and lace choices, and from the beginning there was no limitation in the options I had to choose from- I ended up with butterfly lace, which perfectly suited the type of dress I was going for. Additionally, the dress was very well-crafted and held up beautifully throughout being shipped, hanging in the closet, outdoor photo shoots, being bustled, etc.
Even though our fittings happened over Zoom calls, it was a fairly easy process. Terry shipped everything I needed to try on and walked us through how to determine the correct fit. We then pinned the dress and sent it back so she would be able to make the necessary adjustments.
Overall, I would highly recommend Renee Grace Bridal for their exceptional customer service, skillful design, and superb quality of product.

Amazingly talented and wonderful

Amazing! The people here are so kind and fit you to the perfect dress. They are good hearted and people focused. They are a huge reason why my husband and I were able to have such a beautiful wedding day! In the height of the Covid pandemic (when my dress was a disaster) they blessed me with one of their beautiful gowns so that I wouldn’t have to worry and still feel and look beautiful on my big day .❤️ 10 out of 10 would recommend
