Jana from Veka Bridal was fantastic! What really sets Jana apart is her keen eye for what looks good on all kinds of bodies, all delivered in a kind and non-judgmental tone. I am a quick shopper - my appointment was one hour and I ended up choosing the second dress I tried on (out of five) that day. Three of the dresses I tried on were just "for fun" at Jana's insistence that I try on a few more dresses while I was there. My dilemma was that I liked the second dress but preferred the back on the first dress. Jana assured me that it was not a problem to customize the second dress, which I ultimately did.

While I loved my Rembo Styling dress in the shop, I was a bit nervous that it would look "plain" during my wedding - it was anything but. People commented on how beautiful the lace was (even the photographer!), how "stunning" the dress was, and how much I looked like a "princess." People said things like, "I've never seen a dress like that before - it is so beautiful!"

I would recommend Veka Bridal to anyone who is looking to stand out from other brides on their wedding day :)

The owners at VeKa were a dream to work with throughout the process of choosing and altering my wedding outfit. Absolutely exquisite taste and guidance.

I cannot say enough great things about my experience with VeKa, and was so happy with my dress! I came across VeKa while walking down Atlantic Avenue with my mom (after visiting several other stores in Manhattan with zero luck), due to a striking dress in the window that caught our eye. We went in, spoke with owners Ksenia & Jana, and scheduled an appointment. Beautifully curated dress selection, varied price range, expert tailoring, and all interactions directly with the owners themselves (who are insightful, thoughtful, and great at their jobs). Definitely recommend VeKa!!!
