The White Magnolia Bridal Collection was my first choice for wedding dress shopping that was local to my maid of honor. She's from Bluffton and I am always looking for an excuse for a trip so I suggested we grab an Airbnb for a few days to spend some time together and find THE dress! When we arrived here we were met by Carolina and one other woman. We had the whole shop to ourselves and it was clear from the beginning that Carolina loves her job. I had access to a look book ahead of the appointment so I had favorited some dresses that Carolina had a few of all ready to go as soon as we got there. We started by talking a little bit about how the appointment would go and then what I was looking for in a dress. I was also welcome to put my own music on which I thought was really lovely!
I didn't have much direction to go off for a wedding dress as I almost never wear dresses regularly. I just said boho vibes and comfortable. That's the goal. We started with one of my top choices from my favorites collection and then another and another. Carolina made sure to touch base on each one about what I did or didn't like to help narrow down the choices. Each dress got more and more beautiful and brought us closer to finding THE one! Our appointment ran over time which I was so thankful to be the last client of the day and Carolina went above and beyond to help me figure out what I wanted. I think we tried on over 30 dresses so I truly overstayed my welcome but we were having so much fun! By the end of the appointment I had found a dress that I absolutely adored and couldn't have been more thankful for such a wonderful experience!
If you're looking for a shop that makes you feel like a princess while putting you in the most beautiful gowns across all style types, this is the one. I highly recommend Carolina as a bridal consultant. She was so sweet and helpful and fun to work with!
While I didn't end up purchasing my dress from Carolina due to me wanting to try on one designer they didn't carry before I made my choice, I would have been back to Carolina in a heart beat to purchase the dress we found together.
In short, White Magnolia is the place to go for fantastic customer service, beautiful gowns, and a great time! I would recommend this shop and Carolina to any and all my friends who want a personalized wonderful experience wedding dress shopping!
Carolina - Thank you so much for being the absolute best! It was so fun to work with you and we really did try it all! I cannot thank you enough for making my appointment so special and easy! I'll be sending all my...
Read moreI am so grateful to The White Magnolia and the girls that work there. I originally bought a dress from another bridal store and wasn't in love with it. I saw a Martina Liana gown that was posted on TWM instagram and fell in love immediately. I reached out and they did not have the dress in the store but were willing to ship it from another TWM store. I didn't really want to do that so my plan was to just wait a few months and then try again to see if they had it. About a week later, Carolina emailed me stating that they received the dress earlier than they thought they would and asked if I wanted to come in that Saturday. Unfortunately, I had to work and couldn't come in that day and I was bummed. Carolina emailed me back and asked if I could come on Sunday... even though they were closed. I live 2 1/2 hours away and was so grateful that they would come on their day off to help me try my dream gown on. My mother and I went with my daughter and had the best experience. Savanna was the stylist helping us and was a dream to work with. She made the process so easy and effortless. She already had the dress out that I was wanting to try on when we got there. It was the first dress I tried on and I knew instantly that it was my dress. My mom wanted me to try on other dresses to be sure and Savanna helped pull all of them. I ended up still wanting the dress I originally came for and after trying on multiple others, Savanna helped me get back into the original. She pulled all of the accessories that we wanted to try with it and was so sweet with my daughter who was adamant on helping her the entire time. If you are wondering where to go for a dress, The White Magnolia: Savannah is hands down the BEST place to go! I am forever...
Read moreI cannot say enough good things about my experience here. I had gone to a different store in the morning and wasn’t ready to commit to a dress there. My friends called The White Magnolia and got us on a cancellation list for that day. We got a call around 12:30 saying there was an opening at 3:30.
Even though it was short notice, they had everything set up for me and had my name included on all of the signs, which was a really nice touch and made me feel welcomed.
Karsen was my in shop consultant and she is the BEST! Since it was last minute I wasn’t able to send pictures ahead of time so they could have dresses ready for me to try on. When I arrived I showed her pictures of what I tried on and what I liked and didn’t like and she went to work. She quickly came with a few options and we got to trying on. As I tried on the second or third dress I said it’s close but just missing something and I like a different fabric. She said I have the perfect dress for you and she was RIGHT! She put me in the dress and added some accessories and I knew that was it. I asked if I could make some changes to the dress and she quickly got the answer (which was yes). I also very much appreciate Karsen’s honesty when I asked her questions, such as does this look more like a prom dress lol. She have open and honest answer which helped me made quick decisions.
After a photo shoot with my family and friends we ordered the dress! I could not be more happy with my experience.
Even though it was a last minute appointment, it did not feel like one. Everyone at the shop welcome me and my entourage and Karsen worked quickly to get things pulled even though we didn’t get to speak ahead of time.
THIS is the shop to buy your...
