    Great Experience

    I felt so welcomed for my shopping appointment! My stylist pulled some dresses I had seen online and made some of her own recommendations. This was my very first shopping appointment and I appreciated how patient and eager the team was to help me.

    Krista is simply amazing. She knows best how to pick dresses that look great on any figure. She found the perfect dress for my body type, and I couldn't be any happier. Her boutique is beautiful, and the appointments were always private, which added a special touch when trying on gowns. She is friendly, accommodating, and very easy to work with. She met all of my needs and was always happy to help. She also helped my sister find her wedding gown 3 years ago. I am so impressed by her and would recommend her to anyone.

    Wedding Dress Appointment

    I cannot recommend Lastrina Girls enough!!! They did a private appointment so it wasn’t crazy busy which I can say was wonderful!! My consultant Holly was absolutely amazing, attentive, knew exactly which items to pull based on what I explained to her, most importantly she was amazing with my 2.5 year old daughter who wanted nothing more than to try on flower girl dresses!!! I can’t thank you ladies enough for a wonderful experience and for helping me to find THE dress!

    Absolutely perfect!

    I came into Lastrina Girls with an open mind, but a specific dress in mind. I tried on so many beautiful dresses and each of the styles recommended to me were the type of style I was going for. The day was perfect and so much fun!! We had our own private area, which made the day feel even more special. I ended up getting the dress I came for and it was perfect! So many compliments! I went back and got my veil from there as well which was also stunning! Defiant would recommend going to Lastrina Girls Bridal Salon for the whole magical experience! They have so many beautiful dresses, you’re bound to find your dream dress!

    Amazing Experience

    Lastrina Girls was the first and last salon I looked at for my wedding dress. I had my appointment with Katie and she was so sweet, kind and knowledgeable. I felt comfortable with her right away and I never felt pushed while I was there. She made my appointment go smoothly and was able to find the perfect dress for me based off of what I described and respected my price range. Katie really helped make my experience exciting while shopping for my dress. I also got some of my accessories from the salon and my alterations were done there. Their professionalism and communication is top notch; no matter who I engaged with at the salon, all the women were extremely friendly and really made me feel special. I am very happy I got my dress from Lastrina Girls!

    Amazing, professional, and affordable

    This is the best bridal shop in CT! It’s modern, chic and has a huge selection of dresses. I used them for my dress(bride), my bridesmaids and Mother of the bride dress. Krista, the owner, she is the best. She is extremely knowledgeable and will always give you her honest opinion. Krista is so sweet and has been a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend this bridal shop!

    Amazing experience

    I can not say enough great things about this place! As a plus size bride, I found it very difficult to find something that would fit my shape and make me feel like a princess for my big day! As soon as I walked in, I was instantly welcomed with open arms and felt very comfortable. I gave them all of my ideas but told them, I was open to trying a little bit of everything. I am not one to wear a dress but they opened my mind and I fell in love with an amazing Essence of Australia gown. Krista, the owner, was along for the ride and called to check-in and also be there to support me when I said yes to the dress!

    All sizes welcome!!

    I found my dream dress at Lastrina girls. I was looking for something with straps, a simple top, and a fun bottom. And they had it! I loved that their shop is very size inclusive. Like the mannequins aren't even stick thin. It was great to be able to try on a sample and have it be close enough to my size to really be able to visualize what it would look like.

    Amazing! Highly recommend, positive body confidence

    Ladies, I'm a bigger girl (normal dress size 16/18) and when it came to trying on wedding dresses I was nervous. This salon was amazing in what they have to offer! I actually got to try dresses on that I could fully zip! It made such a difference in the "finding a perfect dress" process to be able to get to see what a dress would look like actually on your body! Thank you!!

    Also got my veil here and I'm obsessed with it! I was able to customize it to make it my own!

    Everyone there is amazing

    I loved the experience of going to Lastrina Girls. Everyone we dealt with were amazing. Their dress options are great, they really have something for everyone's taste. I actually decided to go here based on the fact that they carry both Essense of Australia and Stella York and they helped choose my perfect dress, which is hard considering how indecisive I am!

    Amazing! Dream come true

    Where do I begin? Before my appointment I called the shop and the lady on the phone (I believe the owner) was so sweet and encouraging I’m a curvy bride so I was a little nervous and insecure about what would fit me. She gave me that boost of confidence and I went into my appointment enjoying every minute of it! We had the special appointment with snacks and champagne my bridesmaids had so much fun. Alyssa helped me try on dresses and she made me feel so comfortable and at ease, she was so knowledgable and at the end she knew exactly which style and dress I wanted. She helped me make sure the choice i made was the dress I loved and to not let anyone’s opinion alter my choice. I said yes to the dress here and I’m so happy with everything❤️

    Lastrina Girls Bridal Salon's reply:

    Alyssa,
    We are so happy to hear that you had a great time at your Signature bridal appointment, as we did too! We look forward to calling you once your perfect gown arrives.
    Love,
    The Lastrina Girls

    Friendly and very accommodating!

    The ladies at Lastrina were so amazing and helpful! They were the first store I went wedding dress shopping at. I thought I had a silhouette in mind but everything that style I was trying on I hated! They started pulling me different styles. I found one I loved, but I didn't feel comfortable committing on day 1. I went to 2 other bridal salons and kept comparing everything to my dress I found at Lastrina. I called them and asked if I could come by that afternoon to retry on that dress. They fit me in!

    Krista and the rest of the staff are extremely helpful, knowledgeable, and above all very kind! I wanted my fiance to help with my search for my wedding dress and they were very welcoming to him in the salon as well!

    To finish off my look I went with a cape style veil instead of a headpiece veil that I also bought at Lastrina. My mother also bought her dress at Lastrina and looked beautiful!

    Caring Staff

    The Staff at Lastrina was so attentive. They made me feel very special for the moment my family and I walked in. They took the time to get to know what I wanted and the style wedding I was having. I never felt rushed. Would recommended my friends here.

    Experience was a dream come true

    After one visit to an off-the-rack store and one full-blown bridal appointment, I was getting overwhelmed. Thankfully, Holly was ready to come to my rescue. Her only request was that I keep talking, even when it was entirely unhelpful like “I don’t know, there’s just something weird about it.” She managed to find something that has every element and tiny detail I liked from the thousands of dresses I’ve looked at and 30+ dresses I’ve tried on, so my dress is this composite of all of my favorite things from all those dresses. I truly had that moment when I felt like a bride and a princess, and the whole store made me feel special and beautiful.

    Another thing I loved about this store was that all the sample dresses actually fit me. There’s nothing worse than wanting to try on a dress but not even being able to get it on since the sample is a bridal size 6. The girls made me comfortable and actually promoted healthy body images by having a variety of sizes. I’ve been losing weight to get healthy, so alterations were a concern, but since they can alter down two full sizes, I feel better. The woman who measured me even told me that I don’t even have two sizes to lose, which felt incredible to hear and helps me feel validated for all my hard work. I can’t wait to shop here with Holly for a veil and other accessories!

    Amazing experience with genuine people! I couldn't be happier!

    Shopping at Lastrina was one of the best wedding planning decisions that I have made! Initially, I made an appointment here during a sample sale weekend, because I knew that my budget was on the smaller sides compared to what many bridal salons offer. They ended up having several regularly priced options within my budget, too! I found my dress within 30 minutes and I am so in love with it!

    The shopping experience itself was amazing; the shop is really beautiful and felt very special just walking in. My consultant, Alyssa, was so kind and genuine. I felt so comfortable talking with her and she was also very interactive with my group as we discussed what we liked/didn't like about different gowns. She and everyone else in the salon were so wonderful and helped me feel really amazing and confident in my decision!

    My gown has already come in and I had my try-on appointment last month. Krista, the owner, was right there offering information and input about alterations, answering any questions that I had and making suggestions to help keep costs down. I also accidentally got some make up on my gown (ah!) and Krista herself has worked to remove the stain! She has also been very responsive with any call or email that I make and is helping to schedule my alterations appointment with their tailor that they work with (all of this even during Covid-19 craziness right now!). I highly recommend Lastrina Girls Bridal Salon to any bride looking for an amazing and personalized experience!

    beautiful dresses

    Beautiful collection of dresses. Nice salon, professional staff. I called them multiple times when I was stressed about my dress and how it would turn out and they were very helpful in reassuring me! I will say in response to some of the comments left about the tailor -- she can be a little stressful to work with in terms of her communication but does a beautiful job in the end.

    Beautiful and Classy

    The girls at Lastrina were so accommodating! She listened to what I liked and what I didn't like, but had me try on a variety of dresses, even outside my comfort zone, in order to get a perspective on tons of different style dresses. They had a few designers and all the dresses are beautiful and very reasonably prices. They made me feel so beautiful. It was very intimate and my dress is stunning. I cannot wait for my final fitting!

    The best wedding dress shopping experience!

    My mom, sister, and I had the most amazing experience dress shopping at Lastrina! I had gone to 2 stores before Lastrina and felt discouraged since my mom and I both fell in love with 2 totally different gowns. Holly, who was AMAZING, listened to my thoughts and found the most perfect dress that my mom, sister, and I all fell in love with! They were super accommodating when I wanted to think about it, and even fit us in to come back later that day (on a really busy Saturday) to try it on one more time before I made a decision. They gave us honest opinions and took my feelings, my family's feelings, and my wedding venue into account. I am so happy to have found my perfect dress there and can't wait for the next steps!

    A great experience

    I loved shopping for my dress at Lastrina Girls. They accommodated our rather large group and really listened to what I wanted in a dress as well as my price point. The consultant I worked with pulled beautiful dresses and made sure I tried on various styles to really get a feel for what I wanted. I loved everything about my dress and they made it so easy!
