Best bridal shop - hands down

The Zoya Team are AMAZING.

From my first appointment, Amy made me feel at ease. Unlike other shops in the area, I felt like Amy listened to me and didn't rush me as I tried on dresses. When I had a minor mishap with a veil from another store, Amy reassured me everything would be fine and she was right. With help from Adele, they focused on the perfect veil to complement my wedding day look.

Luvia is an EXCEPTIONAL seamstress. The dress looked like it was custom made for me because of her amazing skillset. Zoya's detail and eye for fashion guided each fitting. This team knows what they are doing. They are warm, caring, and know their craft.

The Zoya Team are like your fairy godmothers - the will take care of you every step of the way and make you feel like a princess on your wedding day. THANK YOU!!!

Highly recommend

I had an exceptional experience with Zoya Atelier for my wedding dress alterations. I purchased the Nile by Kyha, a fitted silhouette with full beading, and was nervous about getting it altered, especially since beading can complicate the process. My dress was very large from the waist up as I had purchased it a few sizes larger to fit my hips, which made it quite a challenge.

Throughout every appointment, they took the time to walk me through what to expect and kept me updated on the progress. I was always involved in the process, trying on the pinned alterations to ensure they were on the right track before moving forward. They added built-in bra padding, a corset, and boning—things that weren’t originally included in the dress—making the fit both comfortable and flattering.

I am so pleased with the final result. Zoya’s Atelier truly brought my dress to life, and I highly recommend them if you have a dress that requires extra attention to detail. They handled my dress with care and made it fit perfectly.

Truly a magical place

Zoya’s shop is the wedding dress experience you want to have. I went twice to try on dresses and both times had most of the shop to myself. The team there is amazing to work with, Zoya really knows her stuff about fabric quality and how to fit dresses. It was so comforting to know that the place where I bought my gown was also doing the alterations. I never once worried about the fit of my dress or if I would get it on time. I truly felt like family every time I stepped into the shop.

Doris and Zoya's is THE BEST!!

I came into Zoya's and was feeling very overwhelmed with dress shopping. It was the second store I went to and really thought I wanted a specific type of dress. Doris suggested I branch out a bit and try on some other dresses that maybe I wouldn't normally try. Thank god I did because the dress I said yes to was not on my wedding dress bingo card. She truly made me feel heard and seen and like a bride. She was so patient and pulled veils without me asking. She also gave me earrings to try when I found "the dress." I had two other appointments so we left the store but after my last appointment I called back and they got me in right away (my family doesn't live in the DMV and I knew I was ready to say yes to the dress). It was the best experience. The dresses are expensive though so make sure you're clear about your budget!

So much attention to detail!

Zoya's was the second place I tried on dresses and they were fantastic. They allowed me to pick as many dresses as I wanted to try on, heard me when I told them what I liked and disliked and just did an amazing job. Where they really shined, though was when I went for my fittings. I originally had three fittings which turned into 5 fittings because their seamstresses paid so much attention to detail they did everything to make sure the dress fit exactly the way it needed to. Everyone said I looked amazing in the dress!

One of a kind experience

After you get engaged, you know when you imagine in your head a fantasy, romantic, amazing bridal experience of trying on dresses without any stress and finding THE one with an abundance of joy and bliss? You also know how that's usually a big pipe dream? NOT AT ZOYA'S!

Zoya's Atelier was the very first bridal dress boutique we made our way to and I'm so glad that is where we started because we truly had a 5-star experience. From the moment we entered the atelier, we were treated like the only and most important clientele- there was no one else in the shop and we were made to feel not only comfortable, but also valued.

Amy and Doris were absolutely amazing at pulling gowns that matched what I said I wanted (A-line, no huge lace, sparkle, beading, or sequin detailing) and what they thought would also match the vibe and my body well. I wanted a classic (soooo many bridal boutiques now are busting at the seams with over the top lacy and sparkly dresses) gown with *some* fun/romantic details and that is exactly what I got. Amazingly, the very first gown at Zoya's ended up being the one!!! I know this is isn't everyone's experience and that it sounds too good to be true, but I fell in love with the very first one Amy helped me into- she pulled this gown specifically for my vision in mind and I was blown away by how gorgeous and perfect it was for me. She made me feel special and validated my feelings as well as taking the extra time to accessorize each gown to see it in all its glory.

Since I wanted to make sure this dress was definitely the one and not jump the gun, we were encouraged by Amy to continue with the appointments at other dress stores and then come back for a 2nd appointment if this was indeed the dream dress. Zoya's understood completely my love for but hesitation in immediately going with the first gown I tried on. Every other store we went to was not even close to the level of service and experience that Zoya's provided. And because of that, I was not stressed that no other gown came close to *the one* because I knew it was waiting for me!

After pulling the trigger and saying yes to the dress at Zoya's, every follow-up appointment was lovely, comfortable, and stress-free. Zoya's did stunningly perfect alterations for the dress and it fit my body like a luxury glove for my big day.

I had such a special experience with Zoya's and have no doubt that my experience was not unique- they make all brides feel so exceptional. On my day, far and away the most repeated compliment that I kept receiving was on the dress- gorgeous, stunning, unique, amazing, one of a kind, perfect, and spectacular were some of the words used. It truly set the tone for the day with how distinctively striking the dress was. It was, and will always be, my absolute dream dress. I can't believe I only get to wear it once.

So much gratitude and love to Zoya's- I will never forget my experience with you. It is far and away the best and most ideal, quintessential wedding gown experience in the DMV (and beyond)!!!

Wonderful Selection and Amazing Staff

My mom and I went to Zoya’s as our first and last stop as I searched for the perfect wedding dress. The dress selection is fantastic, and their team is so wonderful. On my initial visit, I worked with Amy, who was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and helpful. She took our feedback on each dress and found the perfect combination of everything I was looking for. For my fittings, I worked with Adele and the alterations team. It was incredible watching as they shaped the dress perfectly for my body and height. I highly recommend going to Zoya's for your own special occasion!

This Atelier is very very awesome!!!

I found my perfect wedding dress from here, and they helped me so many times!! Also, they did the perfect alternation job!!
They have most likely British Designer wedding dresses, and I chose "Suzanne Neville".
I tried like 10 dresses from the same designer and the worker was very helpful! They gave me very nice advice each time, so that I could choose the most I wanted one :)

I did the fitting for 4 times, so you need to make an appointment each time, please get your day off!
The dress is handmade so it takes a while. If you want to buy it, you might need to wait like 6-7 months. (Depends on what you order.)

I really appreciate what they did, I really love my wedding dress so much!
Highly recommended!

Best dress shop!

Had no idea what I was looking for when I started shopping for my wedding dress. However Zoya was like my dress Mom and didn’t rest until I was 100% happy! Even when I went to pick up my items I got home and felt a little off about the Wedding veil. I call her and she basically told me to say less Nicole if your not happy bring it right to me. She didn’t even bother with it and had a brand new one right when I showed up!! Zoya is the best and makes you feel heard and handle with the most care!!! GO TO HER!!!!

5 Star Experience From Start to Finish!

The search of where to find a wedding dress was quite the task and finding Zoya's Atelier was a true gem to have found. Zoya's was the first dress shop I visited and the last! I had such an amazing experience and found my dream dress that first visit to Zoya's. My mother and I were treated wonderfully from the minute we walked in the shop until the minute we picked up my dress the week of my wedding. Amy and Zoya are both incredible to work with and have a way of making you feel special. They are so kind and involved throughout the entire process from helping pick out your gown to being right by your side through every alteration appointment. I never even thought about taking my gown elsewhere for alterations and the alterations they did on my gown were magic. They really cared to make sure everything was perfect. It was the absolute dream process and went well beyond the expectations I already had. Zoya's gives 5-star service from the time you walk in the store until your wedding day. I loved working with them so much I am sad it is over! Thank you, Amy and Zoya!
