    Perfect dress shopping experience!

    Amazing experience shopping for my wedding dress at Strike Bridal Bar! Teresa was wonderful and made the appointment fun, easy, and memorable. And this from a girl who hates shopping! There’s a great selection of unique and beautiful gowns that are perfect for the anti-cookie-cutter bride! Would highly recommend these ladies to anyone! (Also, you NEED to toast with their signature drink - adorable and delicious!)

    Great experience, highly recommend!

    I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Teresa was an absolute dream to work with, and I felt supported throughout the entire appointment. The specialty cocktail and macaroons are a must add to complete the experience for you and your guests.

    This is it!!

    There are not adequate words to describe the exceptional customer service of this shop!! Abby and Teresa went above and beyond to accommodate my scheduling needs. They were welcoming, made me feel comfortable, and never made me feel rushed. I was determined to find a specific dress I found online. After trying it on, I knew it was the one! They were extremely professional yet fun! I felt like I was shopping with old friends! I will recommend this store to every bride!! It was worth the drive from Chicago!

    Dream Dress!

    Strike Bridal Bar completely blew me away at my appointment! Teresa was absolutely amazing at every step of the process and really took the time to find me dress options that fit the look I was going for. She made me feel so comfortable throughout my time there and celebrated right alongside me when I found my dream dress! I’m so excited to be a #strikingbride and I can’t wait to make a follow up accessories appointment once my dress comes in.

    Great experience!

    Wonderful experience at Strike Bridal Bar. First off, the shop is beautiful. It has a very clean and elegant look to it. I loved the cream city brick, which is perfect for this Milwaukee shop. I wanted to have that dreamy, fancy experience I’ve watched in movies and they certainly brought that to life. I felt that I was being somewhat difficult or particular in my tastes, but my stylist had a positive attitude the whole time and continued to find more options for me to try based on my feedback. There was one perfect dress I had my mind on the whole time, and the shop’s owner and staff were incredibly helpful in finding a solution so that I could have my dream dress. I feel very lucky and so grateful. Also, the VIP experience… worth it! We felt so fancy. Macarons were delicious. Just a couple more things… this shop is a great advocate for body positivity and makes a point to be size-inclusive. They encourage brides to embrace their unique tastes and they carry something for everyone. And, they are just kind people. Say yes here and get you’ll get a confetti pop and everything! I felt so special, and will have a lasting memory of the day I said yes.

    Amazing Wedding Experience

    AMAZING! Strike is a must stop for wedding dress shopping. The entire staff is so nice and friendly. I had Alexis, and she was great - I immediately felt comfortable with her and not pressured to purchase whatsoever. She let my emotions and me make the decision, which I love that type of shopping experience. I upgraded my appointment to get the drink and macrons, WHICH WERE AMAZING!! Thank you Strike team, I will recommend you a thousand times over again.

    Absolutely recommend.

    I had to get into Strike Bridal bar when I found out they had my designer of choice. The experience was simply amazing. They were so nice, never rushed me. I was able to say yes to the dress in my first and only dress appointment. Highly recommend Strike Bridal Bar.

    Fantastic Experience!

    If I could add more stars to this review I would!! I visited Strike two weeks ago and was completely blown away by the service they provided. They had dresses for every style and body type and my stylist Abby was so helpful in finding a dress that was just for me! They even go as far as looking at your Pinterest board to see the styles that you are pinning and pull dresses that match those styles. I said yes to the first dress that I tried on and it was a dress I never would have chosen but Abby had it pulled for me and it was perfect!!

    I would recommend Strike to every person that is looking for the perfect dress for their special day and a 10/10 experience.

    Amazing!!!!

    As soon as I booked my appointment I knew this was the place where I’d find my dress! Strike did not disappoint. The selection at Strike is unlike anything you’ll find in Milwaukee, in fact, you cannot find these dresses anywhere else. The upgraded bridal appointment with signature cocktail and macaroons is a fantastic touch. I’d highly recommend Strike to any bride looking for a one of a kind experience.

    Custom Bridal Experience

    Abby and her team of consultants are absolutely beyond the moon helpful. I originally planned on wearing my moms dress….which was also my grandmother’s, however, the dress couldn’t entirely be saved unfortunately. I prematurely (and thank god I did) made an appointment at Strike because my photographer, Emerald Tide Photography, did a recent photo shoot with them. I was beyond happy I did this because my mom and I had a private showing in our little area with about 8-10 dresses picked out based on the styles of my choosing. I love that Abby and team ask in your pre-appointment to follow up what style(s) you’re looking at for dresses as well as PRICE! This was very important to me as I felt this made the appointment go smoothly and honestly eliminated something I thought was my dream dress but found something completely different that I fell in love with and honestly probably wouldn’t have even looked at it twice on the rack if I had to go around and choose. I said yes in March 2020 and the dress was in by June! It was such a quick turn around!!! Great experience and hope to visit again soon with a friend who is looking to say yes to the dress!

    Amazing experience!

    Strike bridal was very accommodating and friendly. I never felt rushed to make a decision and were very patient with me while trying on the many dresses I picked.

    Felt laid back and easy!

    I absolutely loved my experience saying yes to the dress at Strike Bridal Bar! We traveled up from Chicago to find the perfect dress in this super cute shop that featured gorgeous exposed brick and velvet couches... and an accessory vault! Emily and Abby were so kind and patient with us and made the whole experience easy and laid back. I ended up finding a dress that I loved and they made me feel confident in my decision in ordering a dress with some customizations. I would super highly recommend this place for brides on the search, even if you're not in Milwaukee it was a super easy trip from Chicago! It's also located near great restaurants and is within walking distance from the train station. 1000/10 stars! ✨

    Strike Bridal truly made me feel like a bride!

    - Strike Bridal
    I had so much fun shopping for wedding dresses at Strike Bridal! The space has such a cool vibe, and I loved the private and cozy area they gave me to try on dresses. I worked with Teresa, who made me feel so comfortable! I found my dress at their Black Friday sample sale, which I highly recommend! I felt so beautiful in the dress and loved how unique it was. Strike Bridal truly made me feel like a bride!

    Steer Clear

    I was really excited to book an appointment here because I wanted a custom gown. It took 6 e-mails, 2 Instagram DM's, and 3 voicemails for someone to finally get back with me about booking. I booked out three months in advance and paid $400 for the appointment (the person I spoke with on the phone told me there was no penalty for cancelation) I ended up unexpectedly finding my dress at a different shop not even a week later and e-mailed to inquire about a refund. I was told my appointment was canceled but they were keeping my $400. Now I'm not getting any responses to my e-mails or voicemails. I'm really disappointed in this experience - no work had been started on a custom gown, we hadn't discussed any details of it, and I gave three months notice to cancel my appointment, so there is really no reason not to refund the $400 fee.

    Strike Bridal Bar's reply:

    Hi Kelsie! Thank you so much for taking the time to leave feedback about your appointment booking experience! As one person managing all of our emails and social media accounts, I want to apologize again for a delayed response when booking your appointment. I unfortunately was out sick for about a week and our team was traveling for bridal market as well shortly after I was back in the shop. It looks like we had received 3 emailed over the course of 3 days (2 of which we were closed), 1 Instagram message, and do not have record of any voicemails from you before we were able to touch base about booking your appointment. Our Strike Exclusive Appointment is a little more in depth so there tends to be some emailing back and forth to get all the details and information secured. This is actually part of the reason we do not have the option to book this appointment directly online. As stated on our website, this particular appointment type does have a non-refundable fee due to us having to turn away other appointments during this timeframe as well as putting deposits down for your photographer, hair stylist, and makeup artist that we secure for your appointment. As a small business, we do take a loss on these deposits, which is why the $400 booking fee is non-refundable. This payment applies only to the appointment itself and was in no way related to the discussion of a custom gown. When emailing you back two days ago, I did offer to extend this $400 payment towards any accessories you may be interested in (veil, jewelry, headpiece, sash, etc) and am truly sorry you were not happy with this option. I would still love to continue to extend that credit to you and invite you to come in for an appointment to see the shop and work with our team first hand. I will be contacting you directly today as well to further discuss, but unfortunately did not have time to reply to your last email from this afternoon before receiving your reviews. Thank you again for your feedback, Kelsie, I look forward to chatting with you today and hope to meet you soon! x Abby
