The most fun and personal dress shopping experience!
Before I started looking for dresses, I saw a dress on Instagram (“Mishell” by Dany Tabet, a less well-known and rarely stocked designer), and knew immediately that I had to try it on, along with several other of his designs. Unfortunately, no store within driving distance to me carried the dress that had stolen my heart. I contacted The Dress Theory, which did carry a few Dany Tabet dresses. They confirmed that none of the three dresses I was interested in were in stock in their store, but immediately suggested that they could have samples of all three delivered to the store directly from the designer for me to try on. I ended up visiting 4 other bridal shops in two states before my appointment at the Dress Theory. As soon as I walked in, the dresses they had delivered for me to try were hanging at the front along with the other Dany Tabet dresses they do regularly stock. I was so happy to try on dresses that finally made me feel like a bridal version of myself!!! After I knew Mishell was my dress but before I put it on for the last time to say yes, they even let me play dress-up in a few of their more unique dresses so my dress shopping experience could last just a little bit longer! I can’t thank the girls at The Dress Theory enough for their incredible service, for tracking down my dream dress for me to try on and eventually order, for styling me with a beautiful Sara Gabriel veil, and for making me feel so celebrated during this process. I couldn’t have felt more beautiful on my wedding day thanks to them.-

This is the best place in Nashville to get your wedding dress. The staff was incredibly friendly and stayed right within my budget, and the selection is incredible, ranging from quite classic to very edgy and bohemian. -

The Dress Theory was the first bridal boutique I visited and I couldn't have chosen a better way to start. Camille took the time to get to know me, my party and my vision for the wedding. She immediately made me feel comfortable and did a great job reading my reactions to each dress, helping me feel confident in my favorite. Additionally, the boutique is beautiful and very private - there was actually another bride in the other dressing room, and we had no idea until we saw her leave! I highly recommend making an appointment here if you are looking for a dress in Nashville. -

The Dress Theory Nashville was my FIFTH wedding dress appointment. I felt so comfortable, bridal and calm while trying on dresses, thanks to Constance! I can't believe the experience I had at The Dress Theory- it blew every other boutique out of the water. I am so thankful to have found my dress and I cannot wait to go back to pick it up! -

Very personal and special experience searching for the perfect dress. They had an amazing selection of designers that were not you typical poofy white wedding dresses. I ended up with Claire Pettibone's Kristene, which wasn't cheap, but was so incredibly lovely. I felt like the most beautiful version of myself on my wedding day! The ladies at The Dress Theory were also very helpful and understanding when I was not 100% happy with my dress when it arrived in the mail. They reassured me and everything ended up just fine. -

I had my heart set on a dream dress that I found online that was WAAAY out of my price range. I knew that The Dress Theory carried the designer of the dress, so I thought it might be worth it to see what they had in their store. I was a bride on a budget, and I was already a little exhausted from looking high and low for dresses that were similar to the one I fell in love with -- I was afraid that The Dress Theory wouldn't have what I was looking for... And WOW was I wrong! Gianna was incredibly welcoming and helpful. I showed her my dream dress and explained my dilemma. She never showed me gowns that were out of my price range, and she was able to show me several beautiful gowns that I liked a lot -- but she blew me away when she pulled out a skirt from their racks that was the EXACT skirt from my dream dress, for less than half the price of my original dream dress. Gianna encouraged me to find a top to go with the skirt and then come back in a try it on in the store. I ended up finding a lovely lace crop top that matched the skirt perfectly. Gianna was super accommodating and let me come in to try on the full ensemble a few more times. I never felt pressured or intimidated in the store. It has a very elegant yet homey atmosphere. -

What a wonderful shopping experience! Gianna was incredibly sweet and very helpful in finding my dress! She was honest about how dresses looked on me, observant to how I was responding to each dress and she made sure that we stayed within my budget. My visit ended with a celebratory happy dance and a huge smile. I have already reccomended The Dress Theory to many of my friends and will continue to do so in the future. They are truly the best of the best! -

My experience working with the ladies at The Dress Theory was absolutely the best experience I could've imagined for finding a wedding gown. All of the dresses are dreamy and the shop is the cutest place (probably ever). I worked with Gianna who has been tremendously helpful and accommodating throughout the whole process, and her energy is exactly what I've needed. I'm so grateful for her help and for making my wedding dress experience the most fun part of wedding planning. -

The Dress Theory made finding my dream gown the easiest decision of all of my planning process. Camille and her gorgeous, helpful and precious staff make sure that your private appointment is one that is free of stress, worry or discouragement. They pay attention to your budget, vision and concerns, and ensure that all are taken care of! I recommend The Dress Theory to all of my friends who are recently engaged, and even those who haven't gotten their ring yet! Such a special place that will always hold a place in my heart for making our wedding day that much more beautiful with the wedding dress of my dreams! Thank you The Dress Theory ladies! -

The Dress Theory is a dreamy experience. The team is so accommodating and Constance treated me and my bridesmaids like queens. The Dress Theory provided an intimate and memorable experience when shopping for my gown and really catered to my budget. I didn't feel rushed or overwhelmed whatsoever. It was an unforgettable day when I picked out my dress (The Lafayette by Sarah Seven)-- one that I will treasure always. Thank you ladies so much for making my wedding dress dreams come true and for being such a pleasure to work with. All the love! -

The Dress Theory was first store I went to and the best! My Sarah Janks pick was the third dress I had tried on. Kaylee was working and she was super friendly. The whole ambiance was perfect. During my appointment there was no one else there and I loved that. My mother, maid of honor, and flower girl were all made comfortable as I tried on gowns. We left and did some more shopping all weekend but I could not get the Delaney gown and the way I felt in it out of my mind! Everything felt right! I contacted Kaylee and she made time to meet us again which was greatly appreciated as I live in Denver and would be leaving Nashville soon. I bought the dress almost a year ago and it was still just as beautiful. I couldn't be any happier! The dress came from Australia I believe so it did take quite a while to receive and my veil took even longer. I ordered both early April and received the dress late July and the Veil mid october. The veil was beautiful as well! Couldn't be happier. Kaylee was also excellent in our long distance correspondence via email and I really appreciated that! -

The girls at the Dress Theory Nashville were truly amazing. I got swept up in the moment (and my mom and sister's opinions) and ended up picked and putting money down on a dress that I didn't truly love. I ended up going through three dresses before I found "the one," and as indecisive and annoying as I was, the girls at the Dress Theory were SO helpful and supportive through the process! I ended up with my dream dress and they made the entire process as easy as possible for me. In addition to their amazing customer service, the boutique has a wide variety of designers and price ranges. While the shop is a little small and they don't have hundreds of dresses, they do have the best few dresses of each designer. Also, such as in my case, I wanted to try the Geneva Dress from Katie May, and while they carried Katie May, they did not have that dress on hand. So they were able to barrow a sample of the dress from the designer for me to try on for a small fee that was applied to the dress when purchased. I cannot say enough good things about The Dress Theory Nashville, and I highly recommend going to see them! -

Such a cute shop, but almost everything was out of my price range. I got convinced to try on a few that were over my budget and that was a mistake! Don't try on dresses that you can't afford, its such a bummer! -

Maybe I kept catching them at a bad time...but I saw an email for a trunk show by a designer I LOVED. I immediately sent in a request for a time...they double booked it with another bride who had requested the same time as me but long after I had. The apologized and tried to do right. I ended up getting a Sarah Seven dress that I love sooo much it hurts...they told me to make an appt when I was ready to place the official order bc I was losing weight but I had had already put a down payment on the dress. I made an appt. Got an email conforming it drove into Nashville and nope no one was there. Lovely I felt I had been fooled 2x. They said they were in CA. Sooo 2 weeks later when I take another day off work to order this 2500 dress they do show up and it runs smoothly. I love the boutique they just need to be more organized. As someone in customer service that's how you lose business. -

Unimpressed, left feeling embarrassed, and frustrated. If you are a size 10 or more don’t bother going
Unimpressed and left feeling embarrassed and frustrated. If you are a size 10 or more cross this shop of your list. This store did the bare minimum, I was the last appointment of the day and it showed. The dress assistant made it seem like my budget was the problem which was $3,700 and I was told before hand that many of their dresses fell in that price category. Nothing was pinned right to help me see what it really looked like, everything felt like a size 4 or 6 and being a size 10 I should have not felt “large” (that is a normal size) and literally have most of my butt hanging out in a completely glass front store for the entire world to see. There wasn’t a single A line dress in my budget? The dresses looked cheap and when I voiced concerns I was met with silence. I had such high hopes and left feeling completely defeated. Not to mention the employee who “helped” me had her coat on to leave as soon I walked out the door. -
