Grace & Lace Bridal — Local services in Richmond

I had my first ever bridal appointment and I couldn’t be happier with choosing Lace and Grace as my first stop. They have a variety of dresses, I ended up finding two dresses, completely different styles! This is coming from someone who had absolutely no idea what to expect and what I liked (not a dress girlie). Stephanie was phenomenal and is really good at taking feedback and bringing out exactly what you’re looking for. Going back to try on those two dresses again!

Went back to Grace and Lace to try on the two dresses. One I couldn’t get out of my mind as I explored other stores. Stephanie worked on adding sleeves to the dress as my appointment approached. However, during the appointment I outgrew the sleeves and did not want them anymore. Shout out to Stephanie for going the extra mile and making sure I knew what it was that I wanted. She ended up showing me capped sleeves on my dresses and felt like I was living in a fairytale with this dress, that’s when my answer solidified and said yes to the dress!

This appointment was very crucial and Stephanie worked so well with me & my curiosity on how things would look. Most importantly she was very patient and did not make me feel like such a burden. I felt she was part of me during this entire process and I appreciated her giving me time to process each thought. Kelly, the owner, stepped in and reassured what they can do for lining the bodice. She had her team call the designer and confirm this detail before saying yes to the dress. I could have not done this without them! Grace and Lace was my first stop and it sure was my last. I’m excited to work with them during alterations and wear my wedding dress next...

I am absolutely thrilled with the exceptional service and the most perfect wedding dress I found at Grace & Lace. Despite my abbreviated wedding timeline, they were incredibly accommodating and flexible, ensuring that I found the dress of my dreams in time for my special day. Kelly, the owner and seamstress, is an absolute artist. Her care and attention to detail are unmatched, and she made sure that every stitch and embellishment on my dress was flawless. Not only did she create the most beautiful dress, but she also handcrafted a veil that perfectly matched my specifications. The entire experience at the shop was stress-free and enjoyable, thanks to the warm, inviting atmosphere and the incredible Grace & Lace team. From the moment I walked in, I felt comfortable and supported. I cannot recommend this wedding dress shop and Kelly enough for their exceptional service, attention to detail, and dedication to making every bride feel...

New brides: GO HERE. Kelly is the total package. I went to Kelly for alterations with a goal of using a few pieces to create a custom wedding gown and she was totally game from day one. Not only did she figure out what my personal style was in the process, she supported me after I decided to change up plans. Luckily, this occurred about the same time that she opened Grace & Lace. Kelly was able to use her insight into my style to help me try on many beautiful gowns. I had so much fun getting to know Kelly as a person, it felt like I was visiting a friend who understood my style who was helping me capture my dream gown. Knowing that Kelly was doing alterations on my gown was also very comforting, as I had experienced her love of this industry and her commitment to providing an impeccable service. I highly suggest going to Kelly, she is absolutely wonderful and...
