    Family of dresses

    Earlier this year my granddaughter went to Madeline’s Daughter for her wedding gown. It was a wonderful experience. The staff was very professional and extremely helpful and found a gown that matched her personality. This past Saturday my daughter and I went back to find out dresses. Our consultant was Annemarie who has been in the wedding business for many and could not been more helpful, friendly, knowledgeable. We both found gowns that we love and I believe Annemarie was the one that made our experience so amazing. I would recommend Madeline’s and especially Annemarie to anyone

    Madeleine's Daughter ended up being a one stop shop for my 7-3-2016 wedding! I found my Nicole Miller Dakota gown, a *gorgeous* veil, and my Bill Levkoff bridesmaids dresses here, and my mom purchased her gown here as well. Not only do you get the bridal shop experience (complete with a nice private fitting room and a glass of bubbly), but they have a range of dresses at all price points. My budget was small but I ended up with a dress that made me feel beautiful, and I found a bridesmaids dress that had the cut and color I wanted, at a price point that was realistic for all of my girls.

    All of the service I experienced at Madeleine's Daughter was top notch, but Renee in particular has a talent for helping you find "the one" without any pressure or anxiety. She also helped me find a great seamstress, coordinate getting bridesmaids dresses ordered and shipped all over the country, and now is helping me with gown preservation.

    I had appointments at boutiques in Boston but my Madeleine's Daughter experience exceeded them all. I highly recommend making an appointment!

    Loved my wedding dress!

    MD's did an outstanding job from start to finish with my dress as well as the mother-of-the-bride dress. Our customer service representatives we used were amazing - knowledgeable, kind, and welcoming. I was behind on purchasing my wedding dress and had more limited options than had I started earlier. But, I was still able to get a dress that I loved, fit into the aesthetic of my day, and was perfect for the occasion! And, my mother's dress was phenomenal.

    An experience to remember

    Beautiful store with a wide variety of dresses. I worked with McKenzie and she was absolutely amazing. She was very conscious of my dress budget and never showed me anything I couldn't afford. I picked out a gown but wanted to change the color and a few details. McKenzie whipped out her phone and texted the designers to make sure that everything I wanted changed could be done. The whole thing was confirmed before I left that night.

    Fairytale Attire

    If you want to feel like you are on the TV show say yes to the dress, and leave with a dress fit for a fairytale look no further. My husband got his suite and I got my dress here and the entire experience was fun, stress free and we looked incredible

    Highly Recommend!

    My experience at Madeleine’s Daughter Bridal was nothing short of perfection. The salon is beautiful, very thoughtfully laid out and decorated tastefully. Additionally, their health/safety policies related to the pandemic are thorough but never felt over bearing, it certainly did not take away from the experience in the slightest. But I what I really want to speak to in this review is my stylist, Melissa. She was simply the best! I felt immediately at ease and almost as if she was just another girlfriend that came to shop with me - only a very knowledgeable one! She started me out with an array of styles/fits but we very quickly narrowed it down. She listened to every critique I had of a particular dress and the next one she would bring out consistently brought me one step closer to my dream dress. I was not prepared to find and purchase my gown during my very first appointment though was pleasantly surprised when I did and can honestly say this is largely thanks to Melissa!! I cannot recommend Madeleines Daughter Bridal and Melissa enough. xoxo.

    Gown, Maids, Groom, and MOB/MOG

    Where to start... Madeleine's Daughter was amazing from day 1! I booked an appointment shortly after getting engaged for November 2021. I had spent about a month looking at dresses and designed by "wishlist". My consultant, Mackenzie, was so kind from the very beginning and noticed that I had NO idea what I wanted. In reality, I wanted a traditional classic dress, but wanted to try all the styles to be sure, and she was so kind and efficient in allowing me to do so. We didn't waste time in any dresses that weren't contenders and found the perfect dress in less than 5 dresses.

    My mother, and MIL, both found their dress at Madeleine's as did all my maids and the groom and groomsmen tuxes. My mom came in with a picture and they were able to find the dress and she LOVED IT! My MIL and I then went at a later date, and found the perfect dress that went GREAT with our whole look. For the maids, we did the same color and designer but any style. Bailey was great in working with my girls to find them a dress they all felt and looked stunning in.

    Tuxes were SO easy and fun! we found the perfect look for the guys.

    Many of our family and bridal party was out of state to NH. Madeleine's was flexible with appointment times, pick up etc and the guys calling in their measurements making everything perfect.

    If you have any bridal/wedding wardrobe needs, look no further. I also found the perfect jumpsuit for my bridal shower and hair piece!

    Wedding dress, bridesmaids & suit rental

    Talk about one stop shop! Highly recommend going to MD for all your bridal/ suit needs. If/ when you do go, I recommend seeing Bailey. She will guide you threw this process and make sure you are well taken care of!

    Best selection, make you feel like the queen you are

    Finding your wedding dress is the something you dream about. Having the chills moment and feeling pamper during the process is all a plus. Madeleines does this for you! From the minute they put you in a private room you feel like a queen. The dress I picked was my stylist Brianna’s pick for me after reading through my questionnaire, it wasn’t even on my list to try on. She knew exactly what I was looking for, even before I did. They were respectful, listened to me and made me feel beautiful. I found prom dresses here and was thrilled to have my wedding dress from the same place. I could go on and on about what a great experience it was, but check the photos for the proof!

    Perfect Dress, Awesome Staff

    I can't say enough about how much I loved my wedding dress experience. The dresses were not only beautiful, but very affordable, with a great selection. They also did the suits for our wedding party and those were awesome--my dad said he wanted to buy it since he looked so good in it! Danielle was my dress consultant to start, and she made me feel so comfortable and even when other people grabbed some dresses for me, she accommodated all my questions and re-try ons because I didn't have a clue what I wanted to start with! She picked my dress I think the first round of try ons, and let me go back and forth until I was absolutely sure! I felt comfortable and beautiful, and I loved being able to share the day with my family!

    Welcoming + Lovely

    MD Bridal employs the kindest individuals in the wedding industry (I swear!!!!). I recently got married at 6/11/22 and was SO stressed about finding a dress. I also have a unique family dynamic and wanted to ensure that all members of my bridal party would have a great time shopping with me for this special occasion. MD sends out a questionnaire prior to your visit, so they know what to expect and your budget before you even step into the shop for your appointment. When my group arrived, we were greeted and brought to our changing area (keep in mind, you will be changing in front of your group - I had no problem with this at all, but others may). My stylist, Rebecca, was THE BEST and immediately knew my vision for my wedding day. We found "the one" in under an hour and before I knew it she had me in a STUNNING veil as well that I bought! The store felt so inclusive and there was never any pressure to buy or go beyond my budget at all. Thank you thank you to the entire MD family for such a fantastic experience!!

    SYTTD--but better!

    After a really stressful first bridal gown appointment elsewhere, working with Mackenzie at Madeleine's Daughter was a completely relaxing and fun experience. I felt like I was on Say Yes to The Dress with the level of service and attention I was given, without the craziness of a large, busy salon. Mackenzie was able to pinpoint what I was looking for so quickly and ended up picking a dress I hadn't considered in my pre-appointment research. I didn't feel rushed at all or any pressure to buy that day; I could tell she truly wanted to help me find the perfect dress and she did! She was also so considerate of my budget and made sure to be fully transparent with the pricing of each gown. She also offered ideas on how to add sleeves to the dress I ended up getting and her idea worked perfectly! The salon was also really accommodating and borrowed a specific dress from Hayley Paige that I had wanted to try that they don't normally carry.

    Thank you Madeleine’s Daughter!

    I bought my wedding gown from Madeleine’s Daughter in February 2021 for my wedding in October 2021. I just wanted to thank the staff at Madeleine’s Daughter (I had McKenzie!) for helping me find the perfect dress! I knew I wanted lace and long sleeves, and McKenzie did all the rest! I did not feel pressured to buy a gown like I had at another boutique I went to, and the quality of the dress was amazing! McKenzie found me a dress that was exactly how I wanted to look on my wedding day and even helped me envision what adding sleeves to the dress would look like! McKenzie made a wonderful shopping experience for my mother, my mother-in-law, and me. When I went to pick up my dress, Renée was a great help and made me feel even more excited about picking up my dress! I got so many compliments on my dress. You will get a one-of-a-kind dress and experience if you go to Madeleine’s Daughter!

    Wonderful Experience

    McKenzie was wonderful to work with, she truly listened to what I was saying and what I wanted and actually used my Pinterest board to draw inspiration for dresses. She actually picked out the dress I wore without ever having met me! I could not be happier with her assistance or the dress!

    Wonderful experience

    I came to Madeleine's Daughter after not having any luck at other bridal boutiques. At that point, I was kind of "over it" and not really looking forward to trying on more dresses. Ashley was great from start to finish. She listened to what I was looking for and made the experience a lot of fun. I left loving but not buying a dress and she made sure to follow up to see how I felt about it after I had a chance to think things over. I appreciated her attentiveness and ended up putting an order in. I still love my dress and can't wait to shop for my bridesmaids there! I highly recommend Madeleine's Daughter to any bride to be. You won't be disappointed!

    Fantastic!

    For my first, and now only, wedding dress shopping experience, it was better than I could have imagined! Melissa, my stylist, understood everything that I was looking for from the beginning. She was so helpful, incredibly kind, encouraging, and a dream to work with! We found my dream dress within the first half hour thanks to Melissa! She is truly the best!!!

    Great experience

    I had purchased all of my prom dresses from Madeline’s daughter, so it was no question where I would get my wedding dress. I had a great experience wedding dress shopping with my mom and grandmother. There where lots of different options and I went during a sample sale so I got an amazing price on my dream dress! Thank you!

    Thank you MD!!

    I came to Madeleine's Daughter after having two other appointments and not being able to find “the dress”. Ashley was my bridal consultant and she listened to exactly what I wanted and didn’t want. She was so patient and kind during the entire appointment and helped me found the dress of my dreams!! Ashley was truly amazing during the appointment; but it was after the appointment that blew me away. She wrote me a hand written note to “congratulate” me on finding the dress and stayed in touch with me until my dress came in. When it came in, she helped me put it on and complete my look! My mom had plans to make my veil but we didn’t know where to start; Ashley helped us pick out a veil that completed the dress (so that we could recreate it at home) and even mailed us a sample of the dress fabric so that we could bring it with us to the store to pick out a veil fabric to match. Ashley also helped me picked out bridesmaid’s dresses and helped my mom pick out a mother of the bride dress that made my mom look her very best. My mom has such a hard time finding dresses that she feels compliment her; again during her appointment, Ashley listened to exactly what she wanted and didn’t want and my mom has never looked more confident!! Ashley is truly amazing and I am so happy she was able to help me and my girls look our best on my wedding day!

    The absolute BEST!

    Madeleine’s was my first and last stop when shopping for my wedding gown and it was better than I ever could have imagined. From beginning to end, the staff at Madeleine’s is generous, kind and incredibly thoughtful all while helping you feel so beautiful in every gown. Melissa was an absolute dream to work with. She truly listened as I described what I knew I wanted/didn’t want and helped guide me through the process. It was so enjoyable, stress free and magical. Thank you for helping me feel so beautiful and for finding the dress of my dreams!

    All my love

    Hands down the best

    I can not express how great my experiences were here and I will continue to sing their praises and recommend everyone I know, and maybe even don’t know, to Madelines Daughter. Elizabeth has created a top tier boutique that continues to make so many brides dreams come true.

    Obsessed with my dress!

    I had the best experience! I had gone to other bridal shops and did not feel comfortable, and felt the consultants were just popping me in and out of dresses. When I went to Madeleines daughter, I felt so much more welcome and they took the time I needed to pick out the perfect dress! I absolutely loved my consultant Jodi. Absolutely recommend!

    Great Experience! Thank you Kristin!

    I had a great experience at Madeleine's' Daughter and Kristin was such a great consultant! She made me feel so comfortable and very professional, listening to my likes and dislikes and really respected my large bridal (8 people) party during the appointment and my time in the dress I had loved. I didn't feel pressured, rushed or overwhelmed. She was such a doll and was very professional but made me feel so comfortable. The array of different dresses was great to see at MD to know what styles really fit me best. I would really recommend MD and Kristin for a great dress experience!!

    Say yes to the dress at Madeleine’s

    I would recommend Madeleine’s to any bride looking for an amazing wedding dress shopping experience. My stylist, Melissa, was so friendly, knowledgeable and professional. She even contacted me prior to my appointment to introduce herself and start talking about my vision. I couldn’t imagine going to any other salon!
