My mother and I got our dresses at Wishing Well and loved working with the ladies. We are so sad to hear they are going out of business. Their seamstress Doreen is amazing.

Phylis made the dress of my dreams. I found the dress there but it was a size 14 and I am a size 2. She worked on my dress for months and we went through numerous fittings to get it down to a size 2 but once it was done it was absolutely perfect. I can't thank them all enough!!!

I purchased my wedding dress at Wishing Well Bridal and it was a wonderful experience. The staff members were all very helpful. They allowed me and my family members who were shopping with me to look around ourselves. I prefer to have a look myself before an assistant shows you dresses you really do not like... Wishing Well allowed me to have the freedom in the store to do this and feel. They also have a great rack of discontinued styles that are still beautiful but at a lower price for a girl on a budget!

I am extremely happy with Wishing Well! After a dress order disaster with my first dress shop, I came to wishing well and they immediately helped me. Ordered my dress, and accommodated the bridesmaids appointment date and time that i had scheduled with my first shop. I am so excited for my dress to come in and to put it on!

I loved working with Wishing Well! The staff members were great and it's nice that it's still a family business thats been around for decades. When I went shopping there it was later at night (they have later night hours during the week which is great for anyone that works a 9-5 job) and they did ask us if we needed help and I mentioned some of the styles I was interested in and the woman brought my mom and I right to the area with that style. And with the variety and designers there it was really easy for me to find my dress. And every time I had to go back for alterations and even once when I had family in town they had no problem pulling the dress (which was kept there for free for about 2 years) so I could try it on for them.
The only problems I had was the price range for bridesmaid dresses were pretty expensive and there were no cheaper options (everything was $200+). But it was nice that if you can afford it and you buy your wedding dress there the bridesmaid get a small discount on their dress. Also, if you're going shopping on weekend make an appointment especially if you want a staff member to help you the whole time as they do get pretty busy (but it's the same for any shop).

The staff is highly attentive, incredibly well put together and the selection is impressive. I thoroughly enjoyed working with everyone on staff. I would definitely go back.

I have been to a few wedding dress places and none of them compare to the service you will receive at Wishing Well Bridal! One great thing I loved about this place was not only the prices, but the size variations! They honestly can fit any body type out there, which is hard to say for other wedding dress places. I purchased my wedding dress and tiara from here and I cannot say enough great things about it! The seamstress there was very flexible and knowledgeable. One small hiccup was with my dress. There was a small sewing needle near the back side of my dress that one of my bridesmaid luckily found. Besides that one thing, I cannot be happier with how everything turned out.

Phyllis was the seamstress at Wishing Well Bridal who did all of my alterations for my wedding dress, and I have to say, she is amazing. She was so helpful from day one - from helping me pick out a belt for the dress to adding material to the dress to make sure it wasn't so itchy on my skin. She is a very talented seamstress and also a genuinely warm and caring person. I would recommend her to anyone looking to get alterations - I think she is the best! Thanks so much Phyllis - and you were right, we had a perfect wedding day!

The Wishing Well Bridal team was absolutely amazing during my dress search and alteration process. I originally met the team when I looked for my prom dress so they were the first dress shop that I went to when I got engaged. They have a great selection with diverse styles, colors and fabrics. I visited over 10 bridal stores, tried on over 60 dresses before selecting the Hannah dress by Maggie Sottero. This was just the beginning! After the dress came in, I had several fittings with Doreen who was amazing. My mom and I wanted to remove a couple layers from the dress and several of the appliques, as a result, had to be moved in addition to having the dress trimmed and all the lace detail at the bottom of the dress removed and sewn back on. It was scary to see several key aspects of the dress being removed, but Doreen did an amazing job putting them all back together, tailoring the dress like a glove, and Maria was able to fix all the beading work on the belt and appliques to make them look perfect. Tricia also helped my mom and I select a perfect veil from Symphony to complement the dress. I felt like a princess on the day of my wedding and it is in large part due to the special ladies at the Wishing Well Bridal store. I would highly recommend them to any future bride!
