I had such a great experience at the Wedding Embassy and am so glad I found it through the recommendation of my wedding venue. The shop itself is spacious and airy and the staff was wonderful, from my initial visit to the day I picked up my dress. I found my dress on my second visit when I had gone back to try on a dress I thought was the one. When I tried it on the second time I just wasn't sure. I thought I had tried on everything the shop had that fit my style already but Hannah then asked if I'd be open to a sample dress and when I said yes she pulled out the dress I had been picturing in my head but had yet to find anywhere! I decided to also get my alterations done at Wedding Embassy, and as an out of state bride, needed to coordinate my fittings around visits to CT. Megan and Linda both went above and beyond to accommodate me (Linda even came in for one fitting outside of her regular hours) which I so appreciated and really helped eliminate a potential stressor during the wedding planning process!

Adorable little bridal shop!
Everyone at WE was so nice and helpful! No one pressured you into anything and gave you plently I’d time to try on all different styles of dresses. I’m very happy with the customer service and can’t wait to get my dress in!!

Beautiful Store!
I honestly wish this store combo'd as a venue because the interior is perfection! Wedding Embassy is such a lovely spot with a beautiful selection of dresses. Although I did not find my wedding gown here, I did have a fantastic experience visiting and trying on dresses. The consultant was super friendly and I loved how she has you place clothespins on the hangers of the gowns you'd like to try on (always love when a shop let's you browse their inventory first!) She also did a great job of choosing gowns for me to try on based on what I did and did not like. This is such a lovely store with so many designer and style options to choose from!

Perfect for any bride!
Going into dress shopping, my mind was all over the place and I didn’t really know what I wanted. Very quickly, I felt comfortable at the Wedding Embassy and ended up falling in love with and getting the first dress I had tried on (probably 12 total). After choosing, the owner came over and worked on customizing the dress with me. I have a rather large bust size for my waist size and she knew exactly what to do. My seamstress was also amazing and ended up beautifully building up the bust line last minute and fitting my dress perfectly. The shop is adorable and I had so much fun with the crew I had brought. I highly recommend the Wedding Embassy to any bride!

Had a wonderful experience shopping here. The ladies were organized, helpful, and made me feel so comfortable! I love that they weren't pushy about anything and paid close attention to my comments. I highly recommend this store!

Flawless Attention to Detail
The staff at Wedding Embassy are extremely friendly, considerate, and flawless at what they do. My dress was absolutely perfect on my wedding day. They scheduled several alterations to make sure it fit like a glove on my special day. They were also considerate when it came to alteration prices. They even reduced my cost of alterations by making sure they didn't attach the lace at the bottom of my dress until it was perfectly my size. Their attention to detail will SHINE on your wedding day.

Highly Recommended
The Wedding Embassy helped me find my dream dress. I had no idea what kind of dress I wanted, just a lot of ideas on what I didn't want. I had gone to another dress shop before coming here and thought I found "the one" but still wanted to come to my appointment. Walking in I already felt like a special bride - the shop is amazing and open which I highly appreciated (having come from a very crammed shop). My friends were all able to pick a few dresses they wanted to see me in but after explaining what I liked and didn't like and what I wanted to hide and show off, they brought me "the dress". I tried it on and knew right away the previous dress was kicked to the curb. There were immediate tears and the whole works, I tried a few more on and then came back to the one. There was no pressure, I actually left without buying it and went back a month or so later to make sure I was 110% positive. I was. I continue to receive so many compliments on my dress and it truly was one of my favorite parts in planning for the wedding, which I attribute to the Wedding Embassy - thanks guys!

Great experience
After shopping around a few times for my wedding gown, I was finally able to find it at The Wedding Embassy. The service was great and the experience was everything. I’ve since recommended this bridal experience to a few other brides.
Melissa · Married on 07/27/2018
I feel like I could say this for every vendor and service we got with our wedding, but I would recommend The Wedding Embassy to ANYONE! They were fantastic!
For starters, I would strongly recommend the Champagne Sunday experience at Wedding Embassy. You definitely need to book in advance, but that makes sense as you get the entire store to yourself for three hours! Plus, there are only so many Sundays. I had no trouble getting an appointment a few weeks from when I called. \
That experience was so fantastic! I was able to bring eight people with me, and Megan had snacks and champagne ready for us. She sat us down and asked about what type of dress I was looking for, then gave me and all my ladies clothespins and had us pin dresses to try on. I had a blast, and I found my dream dress! I got to have my weepy, saying-yes-to-the-dress moment, complete with little hand signs for my ladies to wave around. It was such a fantastic experience, one I’ll never forget!
My dress came in about six months later and I booked a “show-and-tell” appointment. This time I brought my mom and sister, along with my grandmothers, and got to put my dress back on, with the accessories I had gathered since picking out the gown. That was so fun, and gave me a chance to see that I was still head over heels for this dress, even months later! I did my alterations through W.E. too, and that was great. I went in three times to have adjustments made (hemming, the belt was sewed on, cups were put into the bodice), the last time mainly being just so my bridesmaids could learn the bustle. The dress fit beautifully, and I didn’t want to take it off! It was a pleasure to put it back on for the actual wedding a few days later. Overall, The Wedding Embassy was an absolute delight to work with. They were friendly, professional, offered great advice, patient, and so knowledgeable. Picking out my wedding dress was something I’ve always dreamed about, and W.E. was the perfect place to go!

A co-worker recommended Wedding Embassy and I am so happy that I checked it out. I loved how they allowed us to shop and browse the store, rather than just pulling the dress for me. I tried on 10-15 dresses, but ultimately fell in love with one. It was the first store I had been to, but this dress was so original and was perfect for my venue. The prices were reasonable and all of the ladies that worked there were very helpful. I also purchased my view and earring from the store. They were also reasonably priced and beautiful. For my fittings I worked with the seamstress, Diane, who was amazing. She was very professional and talented. She added several details that I didn't even think of (such as including a belt inside the dress so it wouldn't slip down). Diane made my dress look perfect. I received so many compliments on my wedding day and absolutely loved my dress. I wish I could wear it everyday. My experience at Wedding Embassy was wonderful! I would definitely recommend them!

I had the most amazing experience from start to finish! My consultant was super helpful in picking my dress, after seeing what I picked, she also pulled dresses and I ended up falling in love with one of her picks even though its not what I originally thought I wanted. The staff was always very friendly and made me feel special at every visit. They were easy to communicate with and sent out frequent reminders to keep me on the timeline. The alterations were affordable and my dress fit perfectly! I would highly recommend the Wedding Embassy to anyone looking for a dress!
Michelle · Married on 05/26/2018
I did the private Sunday champagne session where myself and bridal party and mother’s had the whole salon to ourselves! Found the perfect dress and bridesmaids dress all that day. The fittings, questions, pick up all went so smoothly. Awesome staff to work with, so accommodating. Already sad that I am done with my wedding and not having to go back there, but would highly recommend to anyone and everyone.

Look No Further For Your Wedding Gown!
Wedding Embassy is truly your one stop shop for your wedding attire. When I called the shop to schedule an appointment I was able to make an appointment for the following afternoon. I was paired up with Lorraine who was absolutely amazing. She sat and talked with my mom and me about the different styles of dresses. My only dress "experience" was watching, "Say Yes to the Dress" but my experience at this wonderful shop was so much better than any of the reviews I had heard about from that "other" store! We were given the opportunity to pick out a plethora of dresses to try on. Do yourself a favor- try on all different types whether you have a specific vision or not. The appointment was extremely laid back, stress free and fun! We were allowed to take pictures of all the gowns which I also strongly suggest as well! We returned a few weeks later (partially due to my indecisiveness as well as wanting my future mother in law to be a part of the experience) and I chose my perfect dress! Krissy also helped with my second visit and provided excellent feedback for my narrowed down selections. One of the many wonderful things about this shop is that they have in house alterations. I've seen and heard from so many people who have purchased a dress and have a very difficult time and terrible experience finding a seamstress. My alteration appointments (I believe I had 4 or 5 total) were a wonderful experience as well! I also had my dress cleaned through Wedding Embassy after my destination wedding- can't forget to mention the shop packed ALL of my stuff for me! My dress, shoes, accessories, my husbands suit and shoes as well- into a carry on suitcase. When we arrived at the resort for our wedding everything was packed perfectly and wrinkle free! I cannot say enough about the amazing staff, gorgeous selection of high quality dresses, accommodating appointment times and the final product for one of the most memorable days of my life! I highly recommend Wedding Embassy!

Simply the best! Found my wedding dress here during the champagne Sunday showing (which is so much fun especially if you have a large group!) and worked with Linda to turn the dress into exactly what I was looking for. It was originally a backless dress and she covered it in lace - looked so perfect!! Also, Megan is so knowledgeable and always put me at ease. We also got some of the bridesmaid dresses here and they looked fantastic. Would highly recommend!!
Amanda · Married on 12/16/2017
I had my dress altered here, and got my wedding accessories!! (Hair jewelry, earrings, veil) Everyone was wonderful, and the owner is so sweet and helpful!
Ashley · Married on 12/02/2017
I loved my dress! I bought it during a trunk show and they were very accommodating. It was the best experience I’ve had at a wedding shop. I would recommend them to anyone.
Laura · Married on 11/18/2017
I had a wonderful experience finding my dream wedding dress at the Wedding Embassy. First of all, this shop has the best ambiance and style. I loved just being in there! I worked with Hannah who helped me quickly and painlessly find the dress of my dreams. I had a vision of what I wanted, but she helped me comb through all the options to make sure it was THE one. She answered all of my questions, even ones I didn’t know I had! I was 1000% happy with my decision and never once questioned it. From there, the dress came quickly and I was able to go in and try it on for a “show and tell” appointment before alterations began. I also got my BEAUTIFUL earrings here - there jewelry selection is amazing!! The dress fittings (3 of them) went great, and Linda was absolutely amazing in making sure the dress fit and looked PERFECT. When I picked up my dress for the final time, they went through every single detail I needed to know about how to care for it leading up to the wedding day, and each and every time I visited the shop the entire staff was so lovely, kind, and made me feel so special. They take all of the anxiety of dress shopping away! I HIGHLY recommend the Wedding Embassy to help you find your dream dress!! You will have an amazing experience!

I purchased my dress from The Wedding Embassy for our 10/15/17 wedding, and had an absolutely amazing experience. They responded very quickly to any questions I had, and were able to get a sample to their shop for me for my dream dress, which I fell in love with! I had a large entourage with me for my appointment and they were understanding and accepting of that, and put us in an area that could comfortably accommodate everybody. The seamstress went above and beyond for my alterations and my dress fit me like a glove. If you're looking for a personal and classy experience, this is the place!
Jenn · Married on 08/26/2017
I had a wonderful experience at the Wedding Embassy. I went to purchase my dress during a sample sale, and despite them being very busy the woman who helped me with my dress was extremely helpful. She calmly helped me work my way through dresses. I tried on about 12 during my appointment, and ended up purchasing the second one I tried on... which was not at all what I went in looking for! She listened to what I was envisioning for my day, and she actually picked out that dress for me- it was perfect for my big day!
Alterations were also wonderful, they kept me from panicking when my dress had to be let out, and my dress was PERFECT the day of.
Would definitely recommend making an appointment at the Wedding Embassy, and hopefully you'll also find the dress of your dreams!
Andrea · Married on 07/21/2017
The Wedding Embassy was amazing! The staff was extremely helpful throughout the whole process of finding my dress and getting it altered. My consultant was patient when helping me to find the perfect dress. I was also impressed with the alteration department's attention to detail. I even got my earrings there and they matched perfectly with my dress! The Wedding Embassy is a great place to get your dream dress!
Kelly · Married on 06/04/2017
I splurged for a Champagne Sunday appointment to shop for a grown, it was worth every penny for the individual attention. Me and my girls had free rein of the salon and we had a blast, not to mention I found my dress with time to spare, so my girls then tried on Bridesmaid dresses. I also got my alterations done there by Nancy, she was great, and they were reasonably priced. I will be looking into having my dress preserved there. They are a one stop shop, no need to look elsewhere.
Cashell · Married on 04/29/2017
I had such a wonderful experience here! They have a vast selection of dresses, at every price point. You're guaranteed to find something you love. I worked with Lorraine, who is perhaps the most patient person in the world. She quickly picked up on my style/preferences and was able to find the perfect gown, veil, hair piece, and jewelry! I never felt pressured or rushed during my appointments. I strongly encourage any bride-to-be to come to The Wedding Embassy and find the dress of her dreams, just as I did!
melissa · Married on 02/18/2017
I was recently wed and bought my dress at the Wedding Embassy. They are awesome! Their selection is wonderful! And easy to browse with the way the shop is set up. The staff was attentive to me and took my ideas and thoughts and was able to find the perfect dress for me. It was a breeze with no pressure at all. And I even got a compliment on how perfect my bustle was ! I had a complicated French style bustle and it came out perfect and was so easy for my MOH to pull up. The building and location makes you feel like you are at a cool boutique in Brooklyn so overall it was fun experience !
Jessica · Married on 12/31/2016
We got my bridesmaid dresses, my dress, my husbands tux and the groomsmen tuxes here and everything was perfect! Megan is so knowledgeable and amazing at what she does and never steers you wrong. She made sure everything was flawless. I worked a lot with Hannah who is also so awesome. She was so helpful with all my crazy questions and when making my decisions. I was determined to make a mismatch theme work for my bridesmaids and she made it so easy for me to visualize how it would look and it came together beautifully. I am so happy we chose them- this is the place to go!
Lori · Married on 09/18/2016
I had a wonderful experience at the Wedding Embassy! I first found my dress out of state in the town where I grew up, and the Wedding Embassy was the first salon in CT to get the dress in stock. The staff was warm, helpful, and easy to get a hold of. Linda, who completed my alterations, was amazing! There was a mix up with my first fitting after I rescheduled it, and I received a call that afternoon that my dress had not been worked on- but when I explained that I had family already driving 6 hours to be at this appointment, Linda and multiple other seamstresses worked together to get my dress completely ready for me! I was blown away and so very appreciative of their hard work. Thank you Megan, Linda, and the rest of the staff for making me feel beautiful in my perfect dress!
