    Great experience

    Connie and her staff were amazing. Very impressive! While we were at our appointment another bride or should I say bridzilla was also there and she caused a sceen which Ms. Connie was amazing and handled it with ease and did a great job! Great experience oh and we bought 2 wedding dresses 1 for my daughter and 1 for my granddaughter. We are also coming back for bridesmaids dresses for both weddings. Highly recommend and the dresses were under budget.

    Perfect Dress

    I visited Simple Elegance looking for a wedding dress and couldn't settle on my first trip. I later decided to go with one of their dresses and I couldn't be happier! Their services is great and they are so friendly! Highly recommend this cute shop if you're looking for a great dress!

    WOW. Let me just say.. Words can't express how happy I was with Simple Elegance. I first wanted to look by myself, and they fully accommodated that and helped me find my perfect dress. I schedule my second appointment with them and brought my family. I didn't want my family to know that I had already picked my perfect dress, and Simple Elegance made sure to "sneak" it in and let me surprise my family with the dress that I loved. Their whole staff went along with it. It was the most amazing bridal salon I have ever visited and I couldn't be more thankful for their staff.

    Simple Elegance Bridal and Formal Wear's reply:

    Thank you Shelby for allowing us to be a part of your special day! We so enjoyed assisting you in finding the Perfect dress! We love our Brides and it makes us so happy to read reviews like this! We wish you nothing but the best!

    Absolutely the best shopping experience! It was worth the drive. The entire staff was helpful, kind, courteous, and (above all) honest. I found the perfect dress at the perfect price.

    I bought the most beautiful veil for my wedding at Simple Elegance. I had driven by this shop several times on my way to my family's lake house and thought that it looked like a very cute place. I'm so glad my mother and I stopped in to look at all of their bridal wear when I was hunting for the perfect veil. The staff was extremely helpful and even allowed me to try on my wedding dress and model several of the different veils to determine which one would complete my look best. And they took pictures and videos of me walking with the veil on so I could see how it would be captured on my special day! They helped me feel confident in my choice, and I was so happy with my wedding day look. Thank you for your help!

    Thank you Nella for the kind words! Your pictures are beautiful! We are very thankful for our customers.

    Simple Elegance is the perfect example of why shopping local always provides such an excellent experience! These ladies made me feel right at home by greeting me by name everytime I saw them or visited the shop and were so helpful as I made the decision on the dress I'll be wearing on one of the biggest days of my life. I visited another bridal salon in Atlanta and was so disappointed and knew that the right choice was with Simple Elegance! Whether you're looking for a wedding dress, bridesmaid dress, or tuxuedos for your big day go visit these wonderful ladies and prepare to have a great experience!

    I loved this shop. They had my dream wedding dress, the staff were great, and I was shopping local. Cancelled my other appointments at other bridal shops after going to Simple Elegance. Could not have asked for a better experience and would recommend this shop to anyone with formal wear needs! Love, love, love!!!

    Words can not express the pleasure it was working with the ladies at Simple Elegance Bridal and Formal Wear. They went above and beyond to get the dress that my daughter fell in love with! The ladies spend so much time with you. You can try on one or 100 dresses if you want to. They do not limit you at all! Your happiness is what they want! It is a one stop shop. We got Bridesmaid dresses, tuxes and mother of the bride and groom dresses there. They are so helpful and understanding! So happy we chose Simple Elegance Bridal and Formal Wear they are amazing ladies!

    Nancy at the shop was so great. She helped me with every single thing that I needed. She even stuck with me all the way through the alterations process even though she was not directly involved with the seamstress. She took care of everything and was so sweet and kind through the whole process. She stayed late for me the day that I picked out my dress and made the whole process so smooth and stress free.

    They have a huge selection of dresses for the size of their shop. If you are in the area, give them a chance for sure!! They took care of all of our tuxes for the wedding too.

    Simple Elegance is a great small-town shop. The owners are very personable and easy to work with. The gown and headband I received from them are better than anything I had seen online. Although I didn't buy anything else from them, they do sell bridesmaid and mother of the bride/groom dresses, as well as prom and pageant dresses.

    If you bring a picture of a dress you have in mind they get an idea of what your style is.

    They do a really amazing job. I've got a couple of dresses I bought from them. They help you find the dress or suit that is perfect for you. I will buy more dresses from them in the future.

    Great experience but communication was lacking

    I loved my dress and it was amazing for the price. However, on a professional note, there was some communication errors on their part due to them not writing down info as it was said, so the same questions came up over and over.

    Overall good experience though. 9/10 would recommend.

    I was not the biggest fan of working with Simple Elegance. They were local, so they were convenient for me to work with, but if I had it to do over again I would probably work with a different vendor. I had no issues with my dress, but had several issues with tuxedo rentals. When I initially rented the tuxedos I was given an arrival date of the Tuesday before my Friday wedding. As the wedding got closer I called to double-check the status of the tuxedos because our wedding was out of town and we needed to leave on Thursday. When the staff answered the phone they told me that the tuxedos were not guaranteed delivery until Friday, the day of my wedding, despite the date given upon rental of the Tuesday before the wedding. This caused a panic for me. After a scramble, the staff did manage to get the tuxedos in on Wednesday, and met me that evening (even though they're closed on Wednesday). A rush order was placed for items that didn't initially fit (to be delivered on Thursday). Overall, I have to give them credit for rushing around and finally fixing the situation, as well as for being willing to meet me and all the groomsmen even when the shop was closed to make it right; however, this sort of miscommunication among the staff and myself should not have happened in the first place. I just would have preferred to get the tuxedos in at least two weeks ahead of time so that the groomsmen and myself did not have to panic the week before the wedding in order to get the tuxedos right. Overall, they seemed disorganized and had odd and inconvenient business hours, but they did fix the entire situation, so that's what earned them 3 stars.

    Used this vendor for a wedding I was a bridesmaid in last year..it took 6 months for the dresses to come in and they were all made wrong, the shop did not work to correct the problem or refund out money in a timely manner. We had to order last minute dresses from Davids Bridal. I waited 2 months after the wedding for a refund and finally had to file a claim with my credit card company...

    Simple Elegance Bridal and Formal Wear's reply:

    Yes you are correct that there was a problem with the bridesmaids dress being made incorrectly. However, we made every effort to correct the problem, but it was the Brides decision to order different dresses and not allow us to correct the mistake made by the dress manufacturer. We did and always have made every effort possible to make every customer happy.
