My sister went to Genevieve's a few years ago to get her dress with Monika as her consultant -- it was such an amazing experience! Now that it's my turn to dress shop, I booked a trip to Kleinfeld in NYC with my mom and sister. However, our flight got cancelled a few hours before takeoff, so we were stuck with no appointment. I sent an email to the owner at Genevieve's early in the morning to see if there were any last-minute appointment slots due to my unfortunate trip cancellation. They were able to squeeze me in the next day and gave us the same experience that we had with my sister and more. We found my dress but came back a week later so my other sisters and future MIL could see it for the big reveal with another stylist Brooklyn who was also so helpful. Cannot reocmmend Genevieve's enough for all brides!!!

Would absolutely recommend The Altar Bridal, especially to anyone with a shorter engagement like I had. They have a large selection of off-the-rack dresses for every price range, which was exactly what I needed. I came here with less than four months until my wedding, after visiting four other shops and not quite finding the one. From the moment I walked in, I absolutely loved it! The shop is beautiful, and everything is so thoughtfully arranged. They even had my name on the board outside, which made me feel special. The stylists were welcoming, friendly, and never pushy—unlike some other places I’d been. The stylist I worked with really took the time to listen to my preferences and understand my budget. She was incredibly helpful and helped me find the perfect dress! The entire experience was just how I’d imagined wedding dress shopping would be. Thank you, Altar Bridal, for making this such an amazing and stress-free part of my wedding planning journey!

I went to Gilded Rose on a whim because I saw they had an open appointment and had great reviews online. I went there on my first day trying on wedding dresses to see if I could try on different types of dresses, to find the style I liked most. I didn't expect to find my perfect dress there! The quality of dresses is top tier and each was more gorgeous than the last. I went back to Gilded Rose two more times to show off the dress to different people and they never pressured me to say yes or buy the dress in that moment. It was such a relief to try on dresses in an environment with no pressure, where I knew I was saying yes to the dress that I loved the most and at a place that cared about me as a person rather than just focusing on getting a sale. I told all my engaged friends that they must go to Gilded Rose to try on dresses!

If you want a job done right, let Daniel take care of you. He took care of not only the wedding party but the guests too! He had what seemed like unlimited accessories to ensure that everyone was taken care of. Dibi is a great company but has an even better owner. Thanks, Daniel!!
