I love this shop and it's owner! We went to three shops to find the dress for me and didn't have much fun or luck at the other two. They both had a set amount of dresses I was allowed to try on in a set amount of time (even though both stores admitted I was their only or last appointment of the day, nowhere near their closing times.) I was like a doll they played dress with, putting me in dresses they wanted to see me in, not dresses I wanted to try on. They didn't stick to my price range or my style. They wouldn't even allow us to take pictures of the dresses I did like to compare side to side. But at Bella Sposa, I had so much fun. The shop owner listened to me and helped me pick out dresses in my style. She made suggestions, but didn't push me to try on dresses I didn't like. I must have tried on 20-30 dresses while I was there and she helped me narrow down my options and find the dress. She stuck with my price range and gave me fair warning if I picked something to try that was over it. She let us take all the pictures we wanted. She even helped my maid of honor pick a few dress options. I was her last appointment of the day and we were probably there for a couple hours. She didn't rush us or make us feel we had over stayed our welcome, she just kept supplying dresses for us to try on. We had some great laughs with her, and it was damn near effortless to hang out and try on the beautiful dresses in her shop. She made it fun and so much less stressful than the other shops we were in. I love my wedding dress and am so grateful to have...
Read moreWalking into the store you feel the atmosphere change into something so inviting, cozy, relaxing and elegant. We were greeted immediately with a friendly smile and energetic hello. Our stylist, Chris, was more than accommodating and informative regarding her bridal gown knowledge. She picked up on what I was drawn to, just by us briefly chatting and me showing minimal photos. She was very aware and understanding about my concerns, being a plus size female, and the type of dress that would be most flattering. Chris was incredible with helping me try on the dresses and learning how to walk in all that dress. (lol) Chris also provided great insight as what to look for to accommodate my day (being outside/ having stairs/ an assistant for the wedding day with the dress - bathrooms, dancing, pinning up. etc). I came into the store wanting a specific style and color finding multiple beautiful gowns to meet this expectation; however, after working with Chris and her learning about myself and my style she had me try something I was too intimidated to try all on my own. Long story short, this is the dress I am going to be wearing as the bride and feeling amazing about the choice. It is the most elegantly beautiful, great quality, chic design, personality fitting gown and I am truly in love. I will be using Chris and Bella Sposa for my entire bridal party and mothers dresses. I cannot speak highly enough about Chris and her staff. Thank you to Chris and Bella Sposa for the experience of a lifetime and finding the gown...
Read moreMy Aunt went here for her dresses I am a bridesmaid and my daughter a flower girl. I went to get our dresses brought them home and mine is like a parachute that can fit 3 of me and is way too long. My daughters is to tight and won't zip up in the back. Mine I sent the measurements and my hight and they measured my daughter there. How they got hers too small and mine so big I can use it as a parachute while jumping out of a plane and how they got it so long with the measurements I gave them is beyond me im 4'11 and the dress is so long it can fit a 6 foot tall woman. And what's even worse is my Aunt the bride thats getting married in a few weeks has to bust her butt fixing the dresses because the bridal shop won't fix the dresses for free because of their mistakes they expect us to pay for the parachute they gave me and my daughters tight dress ( when they measured her there). Not very good service or dressed for over $300. I do not recommend going here unless you want dresses that don't fit unless you fork out extra money so they can fix their...
