This place is an absolute dream for the future bride! We had such a fun experience during the champagne toast, looking for dresses, and finally getting the staff's choice. They know their stuff! All staff are extremely professional and friendly. We even had a delightful experience with the seamstresses. 10 out of 10 highly recommend for any bride! -

Come to The Wedding Embassy for all your wedding needs! With the help of my bridal associate, we found my perfect dress! They listened to what I liked and didn’t like, and found “the one” on my first visit. I needed some alterations and Renata was so patient and helpful. They even orchestrated a gifted veil from a friend without my knowledge. They are true professionals trying to help any bride feel good on their wedding day! -

This Wedding gown boutique is absolutely gorgeous! They have so many gorgeous dresses, and their staff is so kind and helpful. Everyone from the owner, to the staff, to the seamstress was phenomenal. My dress and veil looked absolutely perfect on my wedding day and I cannot thank them enough! -

I had such an amazing experience at the Wedding Embassy! I had an appointment prior to the wedding embassy that was at an “upscale” store that turned out to be disappointing. The Wedding Embassy actually involved my party in the dress picking process. There were a TON of dresses to pick from, so each person in my group got to use two clothes pins to pin dresses they liked for me. Julie was amazing and caught on to what I liked and disliked about each dress before I could even figure it out for myself! My seamstress Phyllis was absolutely incredible. My family ran into traffic and was late for my first fitting and Phyllis put me immediately at ease, talking me through the process and then just chatting about life in general. It meant the world. Pickup at my last appointment was beyond easy, in and out in minutes. I couldn’t recommend the Wedding Embassy enough!! -

My maid of honor had an amazing experience with Megan, the owner of Wedding Embassy, for her wedding last year and she told me I HAD to work with Megan for my dress search. We tried another shop earlier in the morning and it was fine, but when I got to Megan in the afternoon, I immediately felt like THIS was what wedding dress shopping was supposed to feel like. She was upbeat, positive, and excited for me. She listened well to what I was looking for, respected our budget, and had impeccable shopping skills in her store - she knew all of her inventory and brought me so many dresses I could have imagined myself choosing. I found my dream dress with Megan and felt so confident in the whole process that this was the dress for me thanks to her expertise. The alterations team at WE is ALSO phenomenal, and I had to shout them out as well. Monica, our seamstress, truly worked miracles to make my dress fit me perfectly, and was so kind, diligent, and confident in the whole process even when I got nervous. I shouldn't have worried - she is so skilled and talented, and my dress fit perfectly on my big day! Thank you Wedding Embassy!!! -

Erin Sent on 05/23/2022Amazing Experience
The Wedding Embassy was recommended to me by a friend after I had a few snobby experiences in Southern, CT. From the moment I walked in, I knew this would be the place I would find my dress. My bridal stylist consultant was so kind and never made us feel rushed. She also only pulled dresses within my price range and didn't make any judgements about what my budget was. The other fun part was that my mom and sisters were able to pick out dresses for me outside of my comfort zone, which added to the fun. Everyone who works here has upbeat hype girl energy. I can't recommend them enough! Thank you. -

Sarah Sent on 11/29/2021Love The Wedding Embassy!
The Wedding Embassy went above and beyond to make sure I had the wedding dress of my dreams. They have such an amazing selection of gowns to try on, and the staff is incredibly kind and helpful. When the trunk show I was hoping to attend was cancelled due to COVID, they were able to borrow some of the dresses from the designer for me to try on for my own personal trunk show. I couldn't believe they would go that far just for one bride! Giovanna also did an amazing job with the alterations for my dress and made sure it fit exactly the way I wanted. After my wedding, they also were able to clean, preserve, and package my dress. I would definitely recommend the Wedding Embassy, not just for their selection of dresses but for how wonderful and helpful the entire team was from start to finish. -

Morgan Sent on 11/21/2021A great wedding gown shop!
I went to Wedding Embassy on the hunt for my wedding gown back in February of 2020. I decided to bring a few friends and family for what they call a "Champagne Sunday" appointment where we have the whole place to ourselves. Amy helped us to determine what dresses meet my ideas and budget needs and all of us went to work picking 1-2 dresses from their large selection for me to try on. While I tried on the dresses for everyone there were drinks and snacks to keep them busy! Amy took her time to ensure I felt my best and was confident with what I wanted most rather than what the "crowd" thought. Once I picked the one she helped to get the perfect veil to match too! I cannot say enough about how great my experience was with The Wedding Embassy. Highly recommend using them! -

The team at WE was wonderful to work with from the start. As someone who is very self-conscious, I dreaded starting the process of finding my wedding dress. However, our consultant was absolutely amazing and listened to all my concerns and did not give up until we had found my dress! I had also asked to make a few customizations to my dress which they were more than willing to do, they made the whole process a breeze for me. Even after the wedding when I returned to the shop to have my dress cleaned and sealed for storage, they came through! I had a massive cranberry juice stain on the top of my dress that I was sure would never come out, and sure enough it was gone when I picked it up! If you’re having a hard time finding your dress, look no further than the Wedding Embassy! -

Alicia Sent on 07/01/2021The dress of my dreams!
I had the most incredible experience with The Wedding Embassy. They were my first and only shop. I booked a Champagne Sunday for July of 2020. We had a cute spread of local snacks and mimosas and I was able to bring my mom, mother-in-law, grandma, and bridesmaids. I had no idea what I wanted but had created a Pinterest board of things that caught my eye. Krissy was amazing and had us pick out dresses. I tried on probably 20 dresses and Krissy was helpful at staying in my budget. After trying on dresses, we realized I wouldn't need much in alterations and I was able to play a bit with my budget. Towards the end, she had a feel for my style and pulled a dress that we had looked at but was originally not in my range. I put it on and fell in love. It was perfect! The dress was a Stella York and wasn't in the color combo I would order, so Krissy was so helpful to underlay the correct color for visualization. I ordered the dress and then did a show and tell appointment in January of 2021.
My show and tell appointment was also with Krissy and the dress fit amazing. We looked at the small areas I may need altered and set my first fitting with the seamstress, Phyllis. The seamstress I worked with was professional and thorough and very reasonably priced (I didn't even come close to the alteration cap, which was also nice that they have a cap!) I have 3 fittings total and then picked up my dress the week of the wedding. It was such a seamless process and I am now in the process of bringing it back to WE to clean and preserve it. The whole team (including Megan and Joseph via email) were always so helpful and made this bride so calm! I 100000% recommend The Wedding Embassy to any new brides! -

Laura Sent on 06/21/2021True professionals
The Wedding Embassy was the first and only place I looked for my wedding dress. Lorraine made sure I tried on all possible styles to be sure I knew what I wanted, and made the process so easy and fun. I didn’t want a strapless dress but the one I loved ended up being strapless. Lorraine assured me straps could be added and ordered extra appliqués with the dress to make it happen.
My dress came in and just before my first fitting we decided to postpone our wedding. The Wedding Embassy had me come in to at least try on my dress and make sure I was still happy with it before they packed it up to store until I needed to do my fittings.
Once it was time for alterations, Linda came in and worked her magic! She built the straps while I looked on in the mirror to make sure I loved every part of them. They looked perfect and immediately took away any concerns I had about making changes to the dress. She even added extra appliqués from my dress onto a face mask for me, though luckily I didn’t need to wear a mask at any point! Linda is fantastic at what she does and I’m so happy to have worked with her on my dress, everything was beautiful on the day of and I never wanted to take my dress off! -

Linda at The Wedding Embassy recently did extensive alterations on my wedding dress. After buying it in 2019, it was not my "dream" anymore in 2021. Linda had such a vision when I met with her and truly had the most amazing eye to transform the dress in just over two months. She is creative, accommodating, and honest. She is genuinely eager and happy to help. The other women who worked there were always very pleasant and happy to help me in anyway they can. Their shop is gorgeous and clean - I would highly recommend this shop! -

I was trying to find a great tailor in CT, did not buy my dress here, however, I did get a tailoring quote and from the second I stepped into building, I felt very welcome! I also felt they had a great variety of dresses and should have looked there first!
Joseph set everything up for my and answered my 5000 questions I had before I made an appointment. He was super helpful and was very knowledgeable about WE products.
My tailor who was providing the consultation, Linda, was amazing! She told me the things I needed and things I didn't need (but if I wanted them she could do them). Her customer service was so great and everyone was so nice and helpful! I went ahead and started my fitting and was very happy with the service I walked out with.
They all followed the COVID-19 safety protocols and everything was great!
Would recommend them 100 times over and over! -

Deirdre Sent on 01/09/2021Wonderful Experience!
I loved my experience with The Wedding Embassy. I had been to a few other stores previously and had found some dresses I liked, but none that felt like the one. When we arrived, we were able to look through the gowns and pick ones we liked for me to try on. There was so much selection, and as a plus sized woman, I was so excited to see so many I could actually fit into. They were all beautiful, but still none of the ones we picked out felt like the one. My sales associate had me tell her a few dresses I had seen online that I liked and she picked one dress out for me to try. When I put it on, I felt so beautiful. It was definitely the one, and also definitely not one I would have picked out myself, so I’m so grateful she brought it out! I ordered it that day, and never had any regrets. I also had all of my alterations done through the store, and my seamstress was incredibly nice and did a wonderful job. I could not have been happier with the way everything turned out. The Wedding Embassy helped make me feel so special and beautiful for my big day. Thank you so much! -

Amandalee Sent on 11/04/2020Incredibly talented seamstresses
The Wedding Embassy is a beautiful place to shop, the management/owner is so great and accommodating. But where The Wedding Embassy really shines is in its seamstresses. My seamstress completely and entirely rebuilt the bodice of my dress and the result was perfection. I loved my dress and would recommend The Wedding Embassy to anyone, particularly any bride who knows they will need extensive tailoring. My only negative was that the young woman who initially helped with my shopping wasn’t very enthusiastic and wasn’t very helpful in getting the dresses on. But The Wedding Embassy came through where it really mattered! -

Katie Sent on 09/27/2020The best place to go for a wedding dress
I had the best experience at The Wedding Embassy From picking out my dress to picking up my dress from alterations. WE has an amazing atmosphere and really makes brides feel like they’re the number one priority. There are tons of dresses and a wide range of sizes to try on. There are dresses for every price point. Monica is a top notch seamstress, she is so talented! She made me feel very comfortable and the quality of her work blew me away. I highly recommend WE!! -

The Wedding Embassy was the 2nd bridal shop I walked into after feeling defeated from my first experience. The second I walked into the Wedding Embassy, I knew that this would be the place where I would find my gown. The Wedding Embassy is truly a beautiful shop. It always felt like a special experience whenever I was there. The owner Megan, is one of the sweetest vendors I have met. She put absolutely no pressure on me to find a dress and she was extremely down to earth. I also can't say enough about their seamstress, she did an incredible job tailoring my dress. You will not go wrong by visiting this store! -

I cannot rave about this establishment enough!! My sister-in-law surprised me by taking me there after getting engaged, and from the moment you walk in the door, it is utter loveliness -- the lighting, the hardwood floors, the scent, the staff's warm welcome. You get treated like a queen! THEN I was given such a wonderfully selected range of gorgeous dresses, all within my price range. My ambassador was so patient, creative, and understanding of my desires for exploration. I had BEYOND the wedding-dress-shopping experience I'd dreamed of my entire life. It was SUCH a special day!! On top of all that, I had a very short engagement and it was going to be tight getting my dress altered and ready in time. I went twice to make my final selection, and once we chose The One, my ambassador talked me through every facet of the process and what to expect. The seamstress did SUCH an incredible job and fit my body perfectly! Because I had so little time, they also saved me by having some veils on hand (my ambassador hooked me up with the most stunning cathedral length veil!! it completely made the look come together) and earrings as well. I didn't have time to hunt down a million things so it was soo wonderful trying on everything together in real time! As if all that wasn't enough, they also PACKED my dress IN my suitcase before I flew out!! I couldn't believe how much they went above and beyond. Every time I'm in their shop I don't want to leave haha. They even have adorable bridal t-shirts and candles, which I purchased and highly recommend :) Thank you SO much Wedding Embassy!!! -

Although I didn't end up getting my dress from the Wedding Embassy, they were my first spot and I would HIGHLY recommend. Krissy was my consultant and was so lovely. The entire store is beautiful and my private appointment allowed me to have 2 hours there to try on a number of dresses. Thanks for making my first bridal dress experience so stree-free! -

Sam L. Sent on 12/09/2019Felt special from the day I picked the dress until wedding day
I heard about The Wedding Embassy at a small bridal show in a local winery, where they had a gorgeous dress on display and were advertising champagne "show me" appointments... I was sold! I loved that they had a specific price range for all of their dresses that was definitely affordable. I had no idea that when I started dress shopping in March for my October wedding that I was already behind, but The Wedding Embassy made it so easy for me to find the perfect dress. The setting was great for my audience of six and there was definitely champagne. I tried on maybe a dozen dresses but I kept coming back to my all-lace halter dress with a gorgeous back and train. We even did all of the many buttons so I could get the full effect! They found the perfect veil to match and I ordered it all that day. We planned for three alteration appointments but only needed two: one for pinning/planning what type of bustle to create, and the other to try on the completed dress! I took it home two days before the wedding and it was packaged to make it to the venue without wrinkling. I felt amazing wearing it all day and the bustle was so easy for my maid of honor to do. I only wish I could wear my dress every day! I will probably use them for cleaning and preservation as well. -
