Forelsket Bridal — Local services in Bellevue

Where to even start!!

I first saw Forelsket Bridal at the January 2024 wedding expo. I loved them immediately. I did schedule a fitting that year, but then I decided I wanted to lose a lot of weight, and they were awesome enough to reschedule an entire year later lol!!

Well, I'm glad they did because just walking into the shop,, I felt welcomed and like I was the highest priority. (Which would usually matter because I'm a pretty low-maintenance girl, but they just naturally give loving and caring!) The shop is beautiful, classy, clean. The variety of dresses is AMAZING.

Dasha has been my main POC. She was a dream. She accounted for my being pregnant. She talked me through everything. She was so sweet to my bridal party. She was extremely sweet to people who tried to wander in, lol. I got to know about her, her family. And for someone so tiny, that woman was putting in work carrying at least 7 different dresses, running to get veils, and getting me all laced up. She worked alone the first time, so it was even more impressive.

Moving forward, she respected my dates, didn't blow me up, nor pressure me. She even wished me a happy birthday, even though there was no need to contact me! When I came back ( went to two other places just to be super sure), she and the other beautiful soul that helped her were still such a pleasure. Great suggestions for dresses to try on, and they let my girls pick dresses for me to try on as well. I get overwhelmed very easily, and at no point during either appointment did I feel overwhelmed.

I did end up saying yes to the dress with Forelsket!! They actually had a birthday gift ready for me that day 😂. Its my favorite candle now. I loved their honest opinions. I loved their customer service. I loved how willing they were to work with me on payments, scheduling, etc. Communication even after has been top tier!! While it's mostly been professional communication, Dasha actually reached out to see if I needed baby items and was willing to give us items she no longer needed. 😭😭. This was after I had already purchased my dress.

For an excellent, well-rounded, pressure-free experience, I'd recommend Forelsket Bridal every time. ❤️

Posting from my fiance's account: I am beyond pleased with the services at Forelsket Bridal. I had the chance to meet Jeni, Turkan, Dasha, and Juli; each of them was incredibly kind, helpful, and knowledgeable. The initial visit was a generous 2 hours in a spacious, fancy fitting room. My mom and I really enjoyed how fun and exciting of an experience they made it as I tried on each new dress. These ladies were all also stylish with great recommendations for my wedding day look, including the dress and beyond.

When I had doubts after choosing my dress here due to a personal circumstance that came up, Jeni, Turkan, and Juli spent so much time speaking with me over texts, phone calls, and two subsequent appointments to make sure I was 100% comfortable with my choice. Their efforts meant a lot to me, and they never once made me feel rushed or forced in the process. I was lucky to also have the lovely tailor (Juli) present, and I sincerely appreciated her endless energy and attention during each of my appointments – every dress I tried on, she would adjust it on me in a million different ways so that I could envision all possible fits and versions.

Regarding the dresses themselves, they are a broad and stunning selection. Among the 5 stores I visited in the Seattle area, the dresses here stood out for their elegance and superb quality. While I often saw repetitive styles in the other stores I visited, many of the dresses here were truly unique and I couldn’t find anything like them elsewhere. I found the fabrics to feel comfortable too and not scratchy like some others. I’m so excited to wear my dress from Forelsket in a few months… Thank you so much to the incredible women here for helping me find the...

WOW!!! I cannot recommend Forelsket Bridal enough. This was my first and only stop in finding my dream dress, and with Dasha’s and Vanessa’s help, all my dreams came true. When I arrived, I was warmly greeted and brought to my fitting room.

The stylists asked me questions about my style and what I was looking for. I had picked out a few dresses on their website beforehand, and she pulled those, along with a few others I selected from their extensive collection.

Finally, it was time to try them on. Amazingly, the very first dress I tried turned out to be exactly what I was looking for—even though I didn’t know it at the time! It was a random pick I grabbed from the rack, but it felt perfect. I tried on a few others, but nothing stood out like the first one.

Forelsket bridal made me feel so comfortable and beautiful throughout the entire experience. I also loved how the staff complimented and gave insight on the dresses of clients they weren’t even directly working with. As someone who was initially very nervous about this process, I felt completely at ease.

They have a wide variety of sizes, which was amazing because I was actually able to try on my dream dress in my size and truly see how it felt. Their prices range from affordable to higher-end, but Dasha assured us that no dress exceeds $8,000, which is impressive given their massive collection.

I cannot recommend Forelsket Bridal enough, and I cannot wait to pick up my dream dress for my big day!

Thank you,...
