Philly Brides' Dream

Kinfolk Bride is the perfect place for Philly brides who have a Philly spirit. I ended up there on the recommendation of another area bridal salon and was counting down the days until my appointment after I saw their dresses on their website! I knew it was the place for me. My expectations were met completely -- from the ambiance, to the service, to the experience, to finding my dress! Mayana was amazing and real -- there for it all and to fill in any question, gap or idea with something that was in line with my vision (old Hollywood meets east coast/Philadelphia edge) I ended up in a THE LAW gown and was able to meet the designer who was right next door. I didn't want to leave or take my ensemble off. Can't wait to be back for future appointments.

kinfolk has your dress!!

Mayana is absolutely wonderful! She has a unique selection of gowns from great designers, which all have a very modern touch but still remain classic. I went to my appointment with a list of gowns I wanted to try, and after trying them Mayana recommended one more that wasn't on my list, and it ended up being the one! She has great taste and picked up on my style immediately. I can't recommend her enough and am sending all of my engaged friends her way!

Wonderful experience at Kinfolk Bride

I had the loveliest experience at Kinfolk Bride! This was my first time shopping for a wedding dress, and Mayana made me feel so comfortable. She really listened to what I was looking for and gave me great options all within my budget, without making me feel pressured to make a purchase. I found the dress of my dreams here, and I absolutely love the local, sustainable, and ethical options offered by this shop- no need to look elsewhere. I cannot recommend Kinfolk Bride enough! Thank you Mayana!!!
