A joyous experience!
If you are looking for an exceptional wedding dress experience, look no further than Samila Bridal! Samila offers a highly professional staff and shopping experience under the visionary guidance of Yasmin, Operating Partner. Coming for a bridal appointment with my nervous daughter, Yasmin made us welcome, asked all the right questions, and immediately honed in on several dresses that matched my daughter’s specific vision. Her combination of exacting professionalism, knowledge, and insight was extraordinary. We left with several ideal choices to pick among but more importantly, with my daughter confident that she could have a dress that made her feel beautiful. When she chose the one, the process of alterations and delivery was well communicated, reliable and joyful. Every member of the staff was highly skilled in their role, informative and enthusiastic about this wedding, this bride and this dress. The dress buying experience was transformed for my daughter from a stressor to a happy chapter in her wedding story. We will always be grateful.If you are looking for an exceptional wedding dress experience, look no further than Samila Bridal!

Amazing Wedding Shopping Experience
I’m so glad I found Samila Bridal during my dress shopping. It was the last stop in a full day of dress shopping and I was exhausted. Shae welcomed my friends and me in and took the time to really understand what I was looking for and what other stores may have missed the mark on. She really listened and it was obvious in the dresses she pulled out for me to try on. Shae was such a joy to work with and made the experience so special. I love that Samila offers alterations in-house, I didn’t have to worry about finding someone else to hem and bustle my dress. The tailor was amazing and my dress fit perfectly. I highly recommend checking out Samila for your wedding dress!I’m so glad I found Samila Bridal during my dress shopping. It was the last stop in a full day of dress shopping and I was exhausted.

Wonderful experience!
I had an amazing experience at Samila Bridal & Formal. I did a VIB (Very Important Bride) appointment and the people at Samila created a comfortable and fun environment for me find my dream gown. They helped me envision, customize, order, and tailor a wedding dress that I absolutely loved. I highly recommend this bridal boutique to anyone.I had an amazing experience at Samila Bridal & Formal.

Extremely happy, thank you Shea!
Oh boy! This was a really fun, fast and great experience! Shea is the sweetest!!
For context, I’m getting married this fall, I have NEVER been to a bridal boutique (I was searching online), and I had been looking for a wedding dress since the start of the new year.
There was no dress that captivated me until I stumbled upon the designer Martin Thornburg. I 100% love their style! They are the only designer that caught my interest; props to them and their gorgeous skills!
I checked to see if their work was available in Seattle, and Samila had their collection! When I stumbled on Blaye I told myself YES. Yes yes yes! I called the moment I woke up and left a rather delulu voicemail for the Samila staff (eek sorry!).
I called again the moment they opened and spoke with Shea. Shea reserved the dress for me to purchase and pick up on the day of. There was no room for a fitting which was okay because I literally was so in love with the dress that I was going to purchase it no matter what.
After work I stopped by, Shea greeted me with such warmth and excitement! I definitely rushed after work, and it was a rather warm day so I was so sweaty and so tired from a 10 hr shift. I was not feeling pretty. I got there 30 mins earlier than expected. Shea told me the previous bride did not stay too long and had room for me to try the dress on. Despite not feeling not pretty, Shea was really sweet and encouraging. Truly, this experience was not what I expected; I originally planned on going with my mother and sisters but I just had to get this dress so I went alone. Everything decided last minute.
My excitement was very high that I really could not speak in complete sentences. Shea made me feel comfortable, took photos and was an overall cheerleader.
When I wore the dress I was extremely worried that I would not fit into it, but I did. I was taken a back. Truly the whole experience produced intense feelings of euphoria, and I believe I only stayed there for 25 mins?
Although my time there was short, I knew what I wanted and Shea made the experience extremely easy.
Thank you so much Shea, you rock! I’m EXTREMELY thankful for you!!

Amazing experience from beginning to end!
I had the most incredible service at Samila with Shea! This was my very first bridal dress appointment and Shea was so amazing. She made my experience everything I imagined dress shopping to be! She was patient, listened to my needs and made me feel so comfortable throughout my appointment. Every dress I tried on was so beautiful and Shea really did a great job of picking styles that I asked for. I went to a couple other bridal shops afterwards and none of it compared to the experience I had with Shea at Samila. I would highly recommend going here, especially for your first time bridal dress shopping!I had the most incredible service at Samila with Shea!

Incredible!
I have been raving about my experience at Samila Bridal since my appointment last week! I seriously can't recommend then enough.
Shea and Malia were incredible! They say down with me and the rest of my group to talk through the dresses I had tried on at the other salon I visited. They asked what I liked, but more importantly what I didn't like about my favorites. Shea then curated the perfect set if dresses to try on. Even though I felt like my favorite dresses were completely different, Shea figured out the common thread and found the perfect dress! I swear she figured out my vision before I did. They also made the experience fun with their flourish curtain reveal for every dress.

I had a wonderful time finding my dress!
I had a wonderful time finding my wedding dress at Samila Bridal. I chose the VIB Experience with my mom and Maid of Honor, and it was so much fun to have the space to ourselves as I tried on dresses. I absolutely love the dress I chose -- it was exactly what I had hoped for, and I felt so beautiful on my wedding day. Samila Bridal's tailor also made sure the dress was a perfect fit. Everyone at Samila Bridal was friendly and professional, and I had a great experience. Would highly recommend!I had a wonderful time finding my wedding dress at Samila Bridal.

Perfection.
They made my dress shopping experience so special, the grand reveal my stylist did with every dress was so fun and being behind the curtain in the room with my bridal party added such a fun suspense as i put each dress on and heard everyone getting excited to see it. It was my first dress appointment and by the end I said yes to the dress without needing and more shopping around. The dresses- stunning. The shop- so comfortable and the staff made me feel like a princess. Couldn’t of asked for a better experience and I will remember it for a life time.They made my dress shopping experience so special, the grand reveal my stylist did with every dress was so fun and being behind the curtain in the room with my bridal party added such a fun suspense as i put each dress on and heard everyone getting excited to see it.

Samila Boutique- The place you want to go to buy your wedding dress
Samila Boutique is AMAZING. This was one of three total places I went. Yasmin is the actual best. She made the experience so fun for me, my mom, and MOH. She listened to what I wanted, or thought I wanted, but also provided ideas and suggestions. She worked hard to make sure the dresses looked right by pinning and clipping up a storm so I could see what they would look like on my actual day. I never felt pressured to buy (even though I bought that day) and really can't say how much I enjoyed the experience. Kind of wish I needed to buy 5 more wedding dresses (not really), because we had such an amazing morning. I would tell any bride in the greater Seattle area to come check out Samila Boutique.Samila Boutique is AMAZING. This was one of three total places I went. Yasmin is the actual best.

I said YES at Samila Boutique!
I had an incredible experience shopping for my wedding gown here. The combination of a wide dress selection, a chic and modern boutique, and amazing service with Yasmin made this an unparalleled shopping experience. My appointment was comfortable, fun, and so positive! Yasmin is an absolute professional but also so sweet, encouraging, and supportive. Both my mom and my fiance's mom joined me at the appointment, and they both want to come back to check out the evening wear selection for their MOB & MOG dresses!

They knew just what I was looking for when I didn't.
Samila Bridal was amazing and made the experience of searching for my wedding dress fun and simple. When going in I had an idea of things I liked and did not like. I did not have a specific dress in mind and needed a lot of guidance. Every dress they pulled for me to try on was beautiful and had something I liked about it. They listened and somehow took everything I was looking for and knew just what I wanted. They also made the experience special for my guests whose opinions were very important to me without taking any attention away from me, the bride.
I am so grateful someone suggested Samila Bridal to me and yes, I found my dress!Samila Bridal was amazing and made the experience of searching for my wedding dress fun and simple.

Blind Bride Found an Oasis of Inclusion at Samila
I can’t believe I’m saying this but I found my dream wedding dress with some of the most special humans in my life at a place that has always made me feel seen and welcomed.
Over the weekend, I returned to Samila Bridal and Formal to find my wedding dress. I say returned because I have always known that when I was ready to find a wedding dress, I would only need to go to Samila. In high school, I remember hitting 11 different dress shops in one day in search of a homecoming dress and feeling beyond discouraged especially when store after store had absolutely no clue how to interact with a blind teenage girl who just wanted to have a magical high school dance experience like everyone else. Then in a last ditch effort, my mom and I wandered into Samila and I have never gone anywhere else for formal dresses. From the moment I walked in as a teenager, I have never felt more seen as a complex human who is blind, a fashionista, confident, and capable. Yasmin at Samila made me feel at home instantly and immediately communicated with me like she had only worked with blind people for years, describing where she was in relation to me, when she would touch me to adjust straps or hems, explaining color and texture of dresses, and all the while understanding my style with killer instinct. I got to feel normal at Samila when everything else around me in high school made me feel othered.
So this weekend, I made an appointment and requested to work with Yasmin again because for once in my life as a blind woman, I knew I would be embraced with understanding, ease, and enthusiasm. Yasmin and her team did not disappoint and my dream wedding dress experience came true in the best way. I can’t possibly express my gratitude to Yasmin and Samila Bridal and Formal for not only getting me in dresses that made me feel incredible, but for creating a space where I can be unapologetically myself.
PD: I’m standing holding a sign that says “I said yes to the dress at Samila’s Bridal and Formal.” Around me, my beautiful grandma, mom, cousin/bridesmaid, and best friend/maid of honor and trusty guide dog/ring barer stand with the huge mirror in the backgroundI can’t believe I’m saying this but I found my dream wedding dress with some of the most special humans in my life at a place that has always made me feel seen and welcomed.

Made me feel so special
This is the cutest shop ever! They made me feel so incredibly special!! I was the only bride to be there and got all the attention from everyone. So so nice that you have your privacy putting the dresses on and off. They're there to help, but let you get the dress on most of the way first. I was able to try on several dresses (pics included, except the one purchased) before I found the one!! They were able to read me and select just the perfect choices when I gave them ideas of what I liked. It was just absolutely perfect and I couldn't have hoped for a better experience. I was even able to video call with my family that lives out of state and they never made me feel rushed. This shop is a gem and I highly recommend them!!This is the cutest shop ever!

Excellent experience at Samila Bridal
Out of the 4 bridal boutiques I had visited in search of my wedding dress, Samila provided the best experience by far! Shea and Yasmin were an absolute joy to work with, and the service provided was above and beyond my expectation. I communicated what I was looking for in a dress, and the first one that I tried on was the one I had been searching for. When the dress I ordered came in but didn’t fit due to the sizing not fitting to designer's specification, Yasmin and her team handled the situation with professionalism and grace, and I had no worries because I knew I was in good hands. They took great care of me and my dream dress fit perfectly on my wedding day.

Best Experience Ever
I had the pleasure to be able to be helped by Samila herself, her daughter Yasmin and their associate Alianna. They made the bridal fitting appt very comfortable and a pleasant visit I never got rushed or pressured into anything. I loved every minute of the visit. The entire team was friendly and so very patient. Not only that but there are sooo many beautiful dresses to choose from. I highly highly recommend them to any bride in need. Sincerely Thank you Samila and team.I had the pleasure to be able to be helped by Samila herself, her daughter Yasmin and their associate Alianna.

Amazing experience!
I arrived 15 minutes early to my wedding dress appointment at Samila and was greeted by smiling faces. My guest and I had the shop to ourselves which provided a comfortable and intimate setting to do our shopping. Shea helped me find my wedding dress and was very thorough in getting to know me and my likes in dresses, she asked about my venue, and also about my fiancé. Shea absolutely nailed it by putting me in dresses that I liked and loved. Samila Bridal was super informative and compassionate when they had to explain the change in timeline for ordering dresses due to covid which in turn meant I couldn’t wait for my mom to be here to order it but it also ensured that I will have a dress for my wedding! Overall would recommend Samila 10/10 for friendly and knowledgeable staff and beautiful dress selection!I arrived 15 minutes early to my wedding dress appointment at Samila and was greeted by smiling faces.

THE BEST in Seattle - don't even bother with the other guys
Don't even bother going anywhere else. Samila was simply AMAZING! My sister got married a couple of years ago and had the hardest time finding her dress. So when it came time to find mine, I was terrified I was going to have to go to 10 different stores before I found mine. Thankfully, Samila was only the second one I had to go to. Well if I'm being honest...it was the third if you count David's Bridal...but there's no comparison - not even the same league! I am large busted and also just turned forty so I knew it would be challenging to find a dress that made me feel like it was age appropriate, but still made me feel beautiful. All my fears instantly faded away after being at Samila for 5 minutes. Every bride is treated with VIP treatment. You basically have the whole place to yourself, which not only ensures one-on-one care, but really allows you to enjoy the moment of finding the perfect gown. Before coming to Samila I felt like no one was listening to me. Afterall, as I said before, I am 40 and have been dressing myself for almost as long - I know what looks good on my body. At Samila you are listened to, heard, and even if you aren't as decisive as me, I am confident they will find you that dream dress. I could go on and on, but you should experience it for yourself!Don't even bother going anywhere else. Samila was simply AMAZING!

Perfect wedding dress experience
I chose Samila Bridal and Formal after looking online for boutique wedding dress shops in Seattle that carried Morilee dresses and would allow me to bring a couple guests (due to COVID many wedding dress shops were only allowing 1 or 2 guests). I ended up doing the Diamond experience so I could bring 4 people with me and as a plus we got snacks and champagne. Right away all of the consultants were so sweet and made me feel very comfortable. They listened to what I was looking for and made adjustments along the way based on my feedback from each dress. It was so apparent how much they put into each client and prioritized finding my dream dress over making a sale. They had an amazing selection and I definitely found the perfect dress without breaking the bank. The process after purchase was incredibly smooth. They were able to squeeze me in for a last minute alterations appointment after I got COVID and the day of pick-up were able to quickly readjust the bustle hooks when it ended up being too long. I am SO happy I picked Samila and would 100% recommend them to anyone looking for a comprehensive wedding dress experience!I chose Samila Bridal and Formal after looking online for boutique wedding dress shops in Seattle that carried Morilee dresses and would allow me to bring a couple guests (due to COVID many wedding dress shops were only allowing 1 or 2 guests).

Beautiful dresses with amazingly fun and knowledgeable staff!
I had an amazing time finding my dream dress with Yasmin and Shea! I had gone to 4 bridal shops before finally finding this one. By time I reached this appointment I was discouraged and exhausted, but when I spoke with Yazmin on the phone to schedule my appointment she made me feel confident that this appointment was going to be the one where I would find my dress. They had many dresses that fit the style I was looking for and they took their time going through each one to understand what I liked and disliked. The dresses are so unique and beautiful I thought they were going to be way over budget, but I left under budget with my dream dress! I had an amazing time saying yes to the dress and can’t wait for my wedding day. Another thing that made this experience amazing is that my family lives out of the state so I came into the appointment alone. Yazmin and Shea held the phone so I could FaceTime my family for every dress and hyped me up the entire time.they are so sweet and fun to work with.

Beautiful shop, wonderful selection, BEST wedding consultant!
Samila boutique blew us away! Yasmin is the sweetest, warmest host you could ask for. As a bride she quickly made me feel so comfortable and welcomed into the store. Even with masks and other precautions for COVID that tend to make things feel impersonal, I forgot anything was different than normal and simply enjoyed being a bride.
I fell in love with the first dress she brought out (after trying MANY dresses on at 4 other shops with no luck), tried on a few more just to be sure, and said yes to that first dress! Yasmin went so far above and beyond to pull strings and made a bunch of calls to find the color that I was looking for.
Truly could not ask for a better experience. Thank you Yasmin!Samila boutique blew us away! Yasmin is the sweetest, warmest host you could ask for.

Yasmin has a 6th sense!
Yasmin at Samila Boutique is the fairy godmother/dress whisperer of wedding dresses! I went to 5 other bridal shops around Seattle and felt lost and overwhelmed. Yasmin had a keen sense for my taste and pulled several dresses that I felt gorgeous in! I wish I could have got more than one at this shop :)Yasmin at Samila Boutique is the fairy godmother/dress whisperer of wedding dresses!

The best bridal experience

Great dress shopping experience!
I have driven by Samila Boutique a number of times since I work in the area. I was excited to see them at the Seattle Wedding Show and signed up for a shopping appointment after they sent their follow-up email. It was very quick and easy to find a date and time that worked, and I was able to bring an additional three friends for no cost. Everyone at the shop was very friendly, and it was a relaxing environment to try lots of dresses on! Taylor was incredibly helpful, patient, and kind, and my friends and I had a blast. The fitting area is adorable, complete with signs for your entourage to express their thoughts on each dress (Love it!/Hate it!). I didn't find THE dress, but I found lots of beautiful options and felt amazing doing so.I have driven by Samila Boutique a number of times since I work in the area.
