Classic Brides By Eva — Local services in Stratford

This is THE ONLY SALON to go to for any special occasion!! I got married this year and went to numerous bridal salons and experienced attitude, ridiculous dress and/or alteration costs, and/or poor dress selection. I was beginning to think I wouldn't be able to afford a beautiful dress. I was recommended to Eva from various friends who used her for their weddings and said I would not be disappointed. I live an hour away from her salon, but it was hands-down the best decision I made and I would do it again in a heartbeat! Eva has a ton of gorgeous gowns from well-known designers at a reasonable cost with FREE alterations and veil! Eva is the owner and sole employee, so she has a ton of pressure on her. Through it all, she had a smile on her face and gave me the biggest hug when I went to pick up my dress. Eva stresses she wants every bride to be happy for her big day. She really came through for me when we had a mishap with my MOH's dress, which we also purchased from her. We originally chose one color, but as time went on, we realized it wouldn't look right. I called Eva and asked to order the dress in the other color and offered to pay for the original one on order. Eva said 'no problem,' and ended up doing a rush delivery. When we came to pick up the dress, Eva only charged me for the final dress and said she would keep the original and sell it at her shop. I was so touched from her generosity. Eva is not only a genuine person, but is also extremely talented. Her alterations on our dresses were done in a timely manner and with excellent skills. The dresses came out beautiful and we were more than satisfied with our experience at Classic Brides. Highly, highly recommend!! Don't waste time going anywhere...

My husband and I eloped in May out in CO and I was somewhat last minute purchasing an online dress and getting alterations done. From the minute I talked to Eva on the phone she was welcoming, kind and provided reassurance she would be able to help me despite the time crunch. Part of my hold up was the quotes I received prior which gave me pause on the whole process. She was not only efficient with extremely competitive pricing but the quality of work was out of this world. She made sure I came back for a try on in the interim even with the quicker turn around to ensure a good fit. We are having a party for family and friends in August and I will 100% return to Eva for any bridal needs. When I went back in for my final pick up was unsure of the train (nothing related to altering just inexperienced bride who hasn’t tried on wedding dresses at all) and gosh am I glad I listened and took her advice. Knowledge and expertise can’t be beat. Highly highly recommend. I also wish I looked here for dresses because beautiful selection!!!...

I cannot believe it’s been almost a year since my wedding and I have not posted a review for such an important part of the wedding process! I cannot express how grateful I am for Eva! I tried on probably 50-100 wedding dresses and visited at least 5 bridal shops. I was so indecisive and my style choices were all over the place. Eva gave honest opinions from a seamstress’ point of view. She was patient even though I needed maybe 5 appointments before I finally made up my mind. Her alterations were perfect. My bridesmaids also purchased their dresses through her and she was so accommodating. She worked around our schedule, including doing alterations for one out of town bridesmaid the night before the wedding! I strongly recommend...
