Wedding Dresses and Gowns in Beverly Hills

I searched everywhere for the dress of my dreams and couldn't find it. Finally I went to Caroline and she designed a dress even better than what I hoped for. The dress was embroidered and beautiful. The train was removable so I could dance and the sleeves were unique. My grandmother was dying of cancer and it was clear she would be unable to make the wedding. Caroline herself was willing to drive out to my grandmother's house for the first fitting of the dress so Gran could see it before she died. After the wedding people approached me to ask where I found such a perfect gown. I could not have chosen a better vendor.

I had an amazing experience sending my gown to J.Scheer & Co to clean and preserve my Mira Zwillinger wedding gown, when I reached out they mentioned this was the best company to work with and I am very happy with the results. I expected to spend a lot more than I would at my local cleaners, but no. The cost was surprisingly reasonable and within my budget so after speaking with Judy it made my decision to go with them pretty much a no-brainer.

Winnie on its own was certainly a 5 star experience. My interaction with them up until the dress was picked up was wonderful. The store itself had a good selection of beautiful styles, and the staff I worked with were very patient, helpful, and considerate as I worked through choosing my dress. The reason for dropping this down to 3 stars was due to the very negative experience I had with the tailor (Maria of VIP Couture Bridal Alterations) they highly recommended. Going above a recommendation, without asking me they actually pre-coordinated that Maria to come to the bridal shop as I picked up my dress so she could perform the initial fitting there and take it back with her to begin working on it. I had trusted them up to this point, so continued to trust their insistence on working with Maria. Although Maria had 7 weeks, my dress never fit correctly, and the whole thing wasn’t completed until the night (10 pm drop off) before I left for my wedding. The delays and uncertainty caused me tremendous stress the week before my wedding, to the point that I was losing sleep and searching for backup dresses. My last fitting lasted over two hours because I had to stay and watch her finish the work. I believe she had taken on too many clients, and unfortunately, I ended up being the one who suffered for it. I do definitely recommend Winnie Bridal as place to search for your dress, but do not recommend using their references for other services.

I had such an amazing experience at Panache bridal. My stylist, Linnet, felt like my fairy godmother. Within a few minutes of meeting me, she completely understood my style and vision. She helped me find the best gowns to try on and tailored my whole appointment perfectly towards me, while also being conscious of my budget and timeline. After my first appointment, she was so accommodating in squeezing me in two more times to revisit my options, gave me new suggestions, and today she helped me say yes to the dress! Linnet really made my whole experience. I visited a few other bridal shops, and I can honestly say the other bridal stylists were not even nearly as helpful as Linnet. She is a gem! And panache was so great with such a good selection of dresses! So excited to see my dress when it gets here!

I hired Emalyia at Osio Mita Signature to make a custom dress for my Vegas wedding. Being an older bride, I wanted something that was classy, a little sexy, and not too young for my age. Osio Mita hit the nail on the head. Not only did the dress fit perfectly, it also looked amazing in pictures! I would recommend this company to anyone who is looking for a wedding dress maker that not only delivers, but on-time and listens to your needs as a bride!
