The Magnolia Bride — Local services in Kernersville

I’m the maid of honor in my friend’s wedding this year, and I also manage a wedding venue. When she was ready to look for dresses, I immediately recommended Magnolia Bride! With my job, I see all kinds of wedding dresses and always ask where they’re from; most of my favorites have been from Magnolia Bride. I’ve seen the dresses at bridal shows and hit it off with Nicole outside of the customer experience so many times, but today I saw the two Nicoles work their magic from a customer’s point of view. We went to two bridal shops today, and although I was totally blown away by the bridal experience at Magnolia, I didn’t fully appreciate it until we went to the next store! They’re not just selling you a dress! They’re selling you an experience, confidence, and love for yourself! These women make you feel just as truly beautiful as you are. These ladies at Magnolia are so cool, calm, relaxed, and give you a truly invested yet low pressure experience. They made my friend feel so comfortable and welcome, and really listened to what she needed and wanted. On top of that, she didn’t try on one single “meh” dress! Every single dress in that store is just so stunning and unique. I think that must be how they’re so relaxed; they must know you’re not going to top anything they have in store, no matter where you look. Confidence is easy to have when your service and product is top notch. We are going to a couple more appointments before making the final decision but she’s so in love with the dress she found at Magnolia, as well as the service, that I had to leave a review. I have already loved this shop for a long time and recommended them, but I can recommend Magnolia even more now that I’ve seen how they really are more than salespeople. You feel like it’s just another girl friend shopping with you. I’d leave 10 stars if I could!

EDIT: I just bought my wedding dress from Nicole 2 years later and am blown away. Honestly, as someone who thought she knew what she wanted, just send them your Pinterest board and let them figure it out. She put me in the dress of my dreams that was so different from what I wanted. Yes, she had me try on what I said I wanted, but she knew BETTER and put me in a dress that I feel incredible in. The atmosphere was still laid back, relaxed, and low pressure. They care about you. If you feel insecure at all, make your appointment here. You’ll be so glad you did because they make you feel so...

If I could leave a 10+ star review, I would. While I did not end up purchasing my wedding dress at Magnolia, I felt strongly moved to leave a stellar online review for this bridal salon. My experience trying on dresses with Nicole was wonderful. She was kind, complimentary, knowledgeable, and comfortable. She has been in the wedding dress business for a long time, and it shows. Her ability to pull dresses that uniquely fit my vision & my figure was impeccable. I thought I had found the dress, and even though it ended up not being "the one," I truly wish I could pick up my dress and have it be in her store, simply to work with her. Make an appointment with Magnolia Bride today, don't wait.

I am editing my review! As you may have read, while I did end up buying a dress at another bridal store, I ultimately ended up just not being happy...for many reasons. Due to my mom's persistence, ONE WEEK AWAY FROM MY WEDDING DATE, we called Nicole at Magnolia Bride in Kernersville. She was closed that day and the next day due to participating in a charity event through the Kernersville Chamber of Commerce, but she did not even hesitate to help me. I showed up, Nicole was so welcoming and kind, and never made it seem that I was an inconvenience (even though I knew I was). I ended up trying on a dress that made me feel incredible - a feeling that I had not yet felt with my first dress. Now that I know that feeling, I can attest to how important it is! Nicole's seamstress, Tiffany, is bending over backwards (probably literally) to get my dress altered in time for the wedding. It is incredible. They are going above and beyond to make my dream come true, and no one seems even a little annoyed by the Sunday and late night fittings.

I cannot recommend this store enough. Nicole is dear to my heart, and I know she will be to yours, as well. Her customer service is effortless, and she has a way of making you feel like your best and most beautiful self.

I am forever grateful, Nicole & Tiffany...thank...

This is the bridal shop you'll want to go to FIRST! They have a variety of beautiful dresses and the sweetest staff. The staff really knows how to make you feel special when trying on wedding dresses. They give you 100% of their attention and listen to everything you envision for your wedding dress. They will also go above and beyond to make sure a bride's special day is perfect. I should know because that is exactly what they did for me, and I will forever be grateful for the staff at Magnolia Bride. I also did not have experiences at other bridal shops like I did at Magnolia Bride. Other bridal shops were nice, but they were nowhere near as attentive as Magnolia Bride staff are.

I originally took my wedding dress to another seamstress, located closer to my home, for alterations 2 months before my wedding. Well, every bride's nightmare was happening to me, which was my dress wasn't being finished on time and each time I went to try it on, it looked worse. I was so afraid that this other seamstress had ruined my dress that I would basically need a new one. I did find a second dress at Magnolia Bride, the week of my wedding, but the staff at Magnolia Bride wanted to try to fix my first dress. 4 days before my wedding, I took my dress back to Magnolia Bride where their amazing staff had me try on the dress, took notes, and sent me on my way with the most reassurance. Nicole, Emma, and Ash truly know how to show the most support, encouragement, and put me to ease so that everything would work out. Ash is the most amazing seamstress EVER and she fixed my dress, just in time for the wedding. I cried the day I picked it up because these ladies saved my dress and while being supportive and positive, they showed so much kindness and determination to help me. These ladies treated me like family, and I have no doubt that they will treat every bride in the future the...
