I could not say more amazing things about Francescas! From the second I walked into the store, I felt like part of the family! I ended up losing weight and moving out of state, and Francesca’s helped every step of the way and reshaped my dress like nothing ever changed. Special shout out to Kara for being amazing and helping with every detail! Run, don’t walk to Francesca’s to get the most beautiful gown for your special day! -

Francesca’s Bridal had the BEST selection of dresses when I was looking for the perfect boho meets modern gown for my wedding. They took the time to listen to the styles I knew I liked and the ones I knew I didn’t like. They never tried to pressure me into a dress that I wasn’t overly thrilled about which made the choice so easy when I found the one! The moment I put my
dress on in the shop I knew it was the perfect one for me. They were so helpful throughout the entire process which really made me feel good about choosing them as the place to buy my gown. I love that they’re a family-owned and run business it just gave it such a more welcoming feeling when visiting the shop. I am so happy that I found my dream dress at Francesca’s! -

Lindsey Sent on 09/27/2019A very, very happy bride!
I made an appointment with Francesca's Bridal to view the selection of the Wilderly Bride trunk show last weekend.
I want to start off by saying I had no idea what I style I wanted and had zero expectations that they'd have something I'd fall in love with. I was completely open to "leaving it to the professionals".
My MOH and I were greeted and checked in moments after we arrived. Kara Moro brought us champagne while we waited and let us know that she would be with us momentarily. While waiting, we browsed the gowns in the trunk show and I picked out a few to try on.
It was my turn to begin trying on dresses. I disliked one or two elements of every gown I picked out and was growing frustrated. Yes-you read that right; from the girl who had zero expectations coming into this, I was growing frustrated that I wouldn't be able to find a gown.
Kara brought me a few more gowns and asked me to tell me what I liked and disliked about them. Not only did Kara voluntarily fan me with a wedding magazine to cool me off while I was trying on dresses, she patiently worked with me and critically listened to what I liked and disliked about every gown I tried on. The last gown she hung up is a very, very special gown. You are probably not going to believe me when I tell you this but Kara found the dress I fell in love with!
I had a 5-star experience from the moment I walked into Francesca's until the moment I left. Kara and the rest of Francesca's are phenomenal and I will recommend this salon time and time again. Thank you all for making my first bridal appointment such a wonderful experience! -

I’m from Baltimore but was living in Pittsburgh & planning my wedding there when I went dress shopping. I’m indecisive so I thought a fun day of getting my feet wet at home would be fun. I went to one store before Francesca’s and I left feeling discouraged. When I walked in francesca’s I felt a breath of fresh air, this store was different. First, you’re treated like the only bride when Francesca or Kara is working with you. Second, their selection of gowns are truly beyond my wildest dreams. I felt gorgeous in every single one and could have played dress up all day. But Francesca knew exactly what I wanted and put me in the Rivini gown of my dreams. I couldn’t leave without buying that dress. Being 5 hours away during alterations was hard but Kara was so accommodating to when I was able to come back and planned things around my schedule. When coronavirus halted my wedding plans, Kara knew exactly what to do so my dress was perfect when my day finally arrived. I can’t say enough about how wonderful it was to work with these ladies. They truly make dreams come true. -

Excellence on every level
I can’t say enough about them. They are truly the best on every level. From day one of my search for a dress to my wedding day; they took care of every detail involving my dress. -

Amazing Dresses
The best experience! My sister and I both found our beautiful dresses at Francesca's Bridal. Kara brought out several dresses which were amazing, but when I tried on my dress, everyone said that's the one. Kara knew from the moment I put it on that it was made for me, and she was right. I got all types of compliments about the dress. I want to thank Kara for her impeccable customer service, advice and all around pleasant demeanor. You will not be steered wrong! -

Kate Sent on 04/06/2018I visited Francesca's after 3-4 other dress stores- I was overwhelmed and hesitant to try on any more dresses. I had the honor of working with Francesca herself - and am so grateful for her experience, patience, and confidence. I am not a shopper, and rarely get too dressed up or treat myself to fancy things. Francesca made me feel totally comfortable and helped me get in the spirit and celebrate! I tried on a total of only 5 dresses and ended up back in the second dress Francesca picked out! I did not have the immediate "this is the dress" moment...and I don't think I'm the kind of person that would. Francesca must have seen my wheels turning and jumped right in to help me think it through.
I just got back from my first fitting since ordering the dress and the team there was again fantastic! So warm, kind, welcoming and genuinely interested in me! I can’t wait for my next fitting and to see the team again!
UPDATE: We had the best wedding day and feeling so beautiful in my dress definitely helped. It fit perfectly, and looked so beautiful in our garden setting. I LOVE my dress and am sad I don't get more occasions to wear it :)

Jessica Sent on 05/09/2018I had a fantastic experience with Francesca’s! I had visited a few salons with a specific dress vision in mind, and after striking out at all other salons, as well as with the handful of dresses I tried at Francesca’s, Kara asked me to “humor” her by trying a dress on that was the complete opposite of what I had my heart set on—opposite fabric, opposite cut, opposite style. And it ended up being *the* dress! Kara has such an obvious eye for recognizing what flatters various body types, and she made me feel at ease enough that I was ok stepping outside of my comfort zone. After purchasing the dress, the rest of the process was a breeze. Kara stayed in touch regarding the status of our order, and the salon was very accommodating in terms of scheduling fittings for times that worked best for me. There wasn’t a moment during the entire process that I felt stress due to my dress, and I know that’s a feeling many brides go through. Oh, and Francesca’s seamstress, Gana, is an alterations superwoman! We are so pleased, all around, with our experience with Francesca’s.

Exceeded my expectations and found my dream dress!
Francesca (the owner) and Marla (the seamstress) were amazing to work with! This was my seventh bridal boutique I visited and was still unsure about what style I liked. I knew I wanted a clean, classy, plain dress but had not yet found a style I loved. I tried on an Anne Barge dress and immediately fell in love. After the purchase, I wanted to add a topper onto the dress and Francesca and Marla worked to make my dream come true. I LOVED my dress and couldn't have imagined choosing it anywhere else. I 10/10 recommend Francescas Bridal and could not have imagined getting my dream dress anywhere else. -

Rebecca Sent on 07/19/2018My experience with Francesca's Bridal was incredible! Their salon was the first and only I visited. I did not need to look anywhere else! I had an idea of the type of dress I wanted, but did not have a picture because I never found one. I described my vision to Francesca and the first gown she brought me was the one. I was amazed how she did it first try!! I tried on a few other beautiful gowns just to be sure. I loved them all - the selection was great. Francesca is kind and professional. She made me feel so beautiful, and she was fun to work with. The entire staff was the same way. They were proactive in scheduling. When I had fittings, they had my dress already out for me in the fitting area. They were expecting me and ready. I recommend you head to Francesca's Bridal for the most beautiful gown for your day! You deserve the best!!!
