“Just want to express my biggest gratitude to a beautiful Ellie!!! We ran into the gallery two days before the wedding with only hope but no expectation at all that the problem could be fixed in such a short period of time. She not only fixed it within an hour but gave my daughter the comfort, assured that everything is going to be perfect. Ellie did everything not only just as a high-class professional but also as a wonderful person!
Thank you so much Ellie!” -Olga

“At our first fitting, we met Ellie. I can’t say enough nice things about her. She made me feel so calm, despite how anxious I was feeling. She was so kind to my mom as well. We learned that she has an extensive background in fashion, and it shows. She is incredibly talented. I had a few concerns about the back of the dress, and she magically came up with a solution that brought a tear to my eye. I can’t thank her enough. She made this whole process something really special. Both of us are so thrilled with our dresses.” -Courtney

“I had a VIP appointment in April which was so nice. My girls and I had the place to ourselves and I was able to find my bridal dress. I had to travel for the fitting in August. I needed a rush fitting and they accommodated me! Ellie, the seamstress was awesome, friendly and thorough and made the dress fit me beautifully. I’m happy they allowed the last minute rush for fitting.” -Jasmine

Best Advice for Brides:

Have fun! Your big day is extremely important, but so is the journey to get there! Relax, be present, and don’t stress out about the little things. We are here to guide and support you as you get ready for a beautiful and exciting new chapter in your life.

Top Tips for Shopping at Bridal Gallery:

• Come in with a vision of how you want to feel or look on your wedding day. Bring pictures of inspiration of what you like – it will give us an understanding of the vision you are trying to achieve.

“If I could give more than 5 stars I would! I worked with Vicky, who was so supportive, positive and thoughtful in helping me find my dream dress. I went to many other stores in the area and the Bridal Gallery stood out by a long shot. I felt comfortable, confident and so excited to find my dress! Thank you Vicky, you made what could have been a stressful process so seamless.” -Victoria

“Vicky is a true angel and so good at individualizing the wedding dress experience to your specific needs. She takes the time to get to know you and your guests and allows as much independence or support as the bride would like. I feel like Vicky and I became good friends through this experience and her expertise was so helpful. My girls and I continue to talk about how special our experience was at the bridal gallery. I also found the most beautiful dress that I don’t think I could find anywhere else. I said YES and enjoyed every step along the way. I couldn’t have asked for anything better. Thank you Vicky!” -Caroline

“I had a wonderful experience at the Bridal Gallery! I was helped by both Vicky and Bethany – Vicky helped me for two days to track down my dream dress from a designer that they carry, and Bethany was my stylist day-of when it arrived. They truly went above to help me with this particular circumstance and I am so grateful! I would highly recommend the Bridal Gallery to new brides. -Taylor”

Best Advice for Brides:

My advice to our wonderful brides is to try and not stress about the dress shopping process. I know it is easier said than done but we are the professionals who are here to help guide you step by step for all your dress needs! And that doesn’t stop once you say yes to the dress. We will be with you throughout the entire process from when your gown arrives to any questions you may have in between and even until the very end at your final alterations appointment when you will be picking up your dress for the big day.

Top Tips for Shopping at Bridal Gallery:

• Have inspo pictures ready! Social media is a great tool. Feel free to check out our pages, especially if this is your first time shopping and aren’t familiar with silhouettes, fabrics or details yet.
• Bring the people who you value their opinions the most. Having too many guests can become
  overwhelming so it’s best to keep your hype crew limited.

Reviews:

”Delightful experience! This was our second bridal shop of 4 in total and by far the best experience. With a grand selection, chic and comfortable atmosphere and warm and friendly staff, we felt pampered from start to finish. We highly recommend it! -Daniela”

”Amazing experience! Huge selection and wonderful staff -Christina”

”Bridal Gallery is phenomenal!! The selection is great, the store is beautiful and comfortable but more importantly the staff is the best at customer service!! -Sharon”

Best Advice for Brides:

Once you feel like you have found your dress, it is best to stop looking so you don’t feel overwhelmed or stress yourself out. Don’t over shop and give yourself too many options. Also, try not to over think it – you know when you know!

Top Tips for Shopping at Bridal Gallery:

• Prior to your appointment you should mentally be ready to “Say Yes to the Dress,” you never know when a gown may surprise you – it may be the very first dress at the first store you visit!
• Come in feeling your best whether that’s having your hair and makeup done so this can help you envision the entire bridal look.
• I highly recommend bringing and wearing proper undergarments – bright undergarments can be distracting from your gown!

Reviews:

“The absolute best experience I had! Yram was the best consultant who knew how to make the dress fit my body and really listened to what I wanted. He tailored what I wanted on to the dress to help make it my own. As a plus size girl it felt amazing to not be squished into a size too small or a dress that everyone already has. I would recommend the Bridal Gallery to anyone who wants to actually feel special and one of a kind in a bridal shopping experience!” -Jessica

“Yram was so wonderful to work with and helped me to find my dream dress!! Great experience overall! Yram was so personable and even took the time to talk to me about the dress and my venue, and gave so many suggestions about accessories as well. I never felt any pressure and my opinion was always put first!” – Abigail

“I made an appointment for my mother to find a MOB dress and ended up not only finding her a dress but my WEDDING DRESS! Yram was so attentive and helpful with my mother as well as with me. After he heard what a disaster it had been for me to find a wedding dress, he took the time to find me one that was exactly as I had envisioned and I fell in love with it as soon as I put it on. It was like he was reading my mind! Such a wonderful experience and it completely restored my faith in finding the dress that was “the one”. Thank you, Yram! You are an absolute dream consultant!” -Lindsay

Best Advice for Brides:

Listen to your heart, it’s all about the feeling that you want to have on your wedding day.

Top Tips for Shopping at Bridal Gallery:

• Come with an open mind, what you think you like and what you end up falling in love with might be two totally different styles but that is completely fine, it actually happens to a lot of brides
• Bring people that love you and respect the vision you have for your wedding even if they may have a different opinion.
• The stylist is your friend and wants you to feel your best. Don’t hesitate to ask questions and express any comments or concerns you may have, they are here to help you and be a guiding hand

“My Bridal Stylist, Vanessa, was SO kind and patient throughout my entire experience! She never pressured me or rushed me at any point during the appointment, which really made me enjoy the time I had and made it fun!” -Olivia

“Vanessa went above and beyond helping me find my dress. She is such a kind person and made me very comfortable to be around. The selection at Bridal Gallery cannot be beat. I went to 6 different bridal shops aside from Bridal Gallery and they by far had the best selection in dresses. The dress I ended up saying yes to, was picked by Vanessa. She did an outstanding job at listening to what I was envisioning and also staying well within my budget. I would 100% recommend Bridal Gallery and Vanessa to any bride looking for her perfect dress!” -Brandi

“My best friend and I went in yesterday and she found her perfect wedding dress! Her consultant, Vanessa, was an incredible help in showing her a variety of dresses, giving positive but honest feedback, and most importantly listening to what she wanted to look and feel like on her wedding day. I couldn’t be happier with our experience and I would recommend Bridal Gallery and Vanessa to any central Florida bride!” -Rebecca

Best Advice for Brides:

Come in open-minded, 80% of brides end up with what they least expected their dream gown to be. Bring images of silhouettes you are interested in seeing on your figure. Once you find your silhouette, everything else starts coming together so don’t stress, this is the fun part!

Top Tips for Shopping at Bridal Gallery:

• For the most important tip, don’t be afraid to say “yes to the dress” because once you know, you know, and no other dress will take that place!
• Try to limit your guests, too many people could be overwhelming especially if it’s your first time.
• If you are particular with wearing undergarments, please bring similar ones you will be wearing on the day of the wedding.
• Don’t let a budget stop you from trying on a certain dress, your stylist will try their best to help find similar ones in your budget.

“Melissa was an experienced, thoughtful, and knowledgeable professional! I was so grateful that my first wedding dress shopping experience was with her. She was patient, asked good questions, and listened to my feelings/preferences and found me a dress that I was happy with in the end. I highly recommend Melissa as your stylist!” -Ellane

“Melesa is THE best consultant! She picked my dress and made me feel special! She was so sweet the whole way through and UNDERSTOOD the assignment” -LC

“I loved my experience in Bridal Gallery, I was so nervous about picking my dress, Melissa helped me find a beautiful wedding gown.” -Margeret

Best Advice for Brides:

The process of finding the perfect dress can be overwhelming, we get it! You may come in with an expectation of what you want, but trust the process and try on the unexpected. You may walk away with a dress you never thought you would pick .Additionally, don’t over shop! I would start off only going to 2-3 bridal stores to begin with. Any more will get overwhelming and it’s easy to get confused after trying on so many dresses.

Top Tips for Shopping at Bridal Gallery:

• Bring your best hype crew! There’s nothing better than feeling confident in your dress AND having your squad there to encourage you throughout your whole journey.
• Trust your gut and don’t overthink it. When you know, you know!

BETHANY GAVE ME EASE OF MIND AFTER FEELING SO OVERWHELMED WITH SO MANY OPTIONS PLEASE ASK FOR HER IF YOU WANT TO FIND YOUR DRESS !!!!”

“I just found my dress at Bridal Gallery and Bethany was amazing! I was really nervous going into the appointment but Bethany made everything so fun and easy with her kindness, calm demeanor, and attention to detail.

“Bethany was spectacular- as part of the bridal party we felt SO comfortable and so happy with how she made our special bride, Courtney, feel on her BIG decision! Saying yes to the dress was made so easy with her!”

Best Advice for Brides:

Have an open mind! Sometimes what you envision is not what you end up with, and that is absolutely okay and very normal!

Top Tips for Shopping at Bridal Gallery:

• Don’t go to more than three stores. Options are great but can get overwhelming very quickly!
• Leave any stress and worries at the door! You are in good hands here and we will guide you through the whole experience.

“My consultant Rachel was so sweet and knowledgeable. I started by going down the rows and rows of gorgeous dresses and picking ones I liked. Then Rachel helped me with the vision I was going for by using her expertise to hand pick new dresses based on my likes and dislikes of the ones I was trying on as we went. It was truly a wonderful and personalized experience!” – Amy

“I had a dress altered here recently by Hanan. She was so sweet and did an amazing job! Would definitely recommend for any alterations, not just wedding dresses” -Carly

“Since my wedding was abroad, transporting the dress was going to be a challenge. Hanan, deemed the “packing queen,” somehow packed my dress to fit perfectly in my carry-on. I couldn’t believe it!! She must be a magician or something, and incredibly sweet. She made us feel so confident about our choices, as well.” -Courtney

“Hanan did my alterations and was THE SWEETEST! She even took a video of how to bustle my dress, so we had something to refer back to. I received so many compliments on my dress and cannot thank the Bridal Gallery staff enough!” -Alexa
