Nadia provides every bride with an individual one-hour appointment. Here, she will help you find the dress that makes you feel most elegant, stylish and confident. Friends and family are permitted to attend and it is advised that each appointment is scheduled for 6-12 months before the wedding day. Each appointment must be scheduled in advance.

Nadia and her team are THE BEST

NWLA is the most amazing bridal boutique in town. I was immediately blown away by their unique selection of designers and hand-curated selection. Nadia's taste is extraordinary, and I felt so lucky to end up with a custom Lihi Hod dress and topper. Debra made me feel right at home from my first visit. I never felt rushed or self-concious and her kindness added so much to my experience. She and Nadia spoke with the designer to modify the dress to better suit my petite frame. They helped me decide on my veil and shoes and were truly a pleasure to visit. They also introduced me to Nano at Tailored by Ted right behind the shop who did an amazing job with alterations. After some negative experiences at other bridal shops, I could not have been more grateful to end up at NWLA and cannot recommend them enough!

The best dress shopping experience ever.

If you’re looking for your very own “Cinderella” moment, complete with fairy godmothers, you must get to NWLA Bridal.

I told Nadia (shop owner) and Debra what I was looking for and what I wasn’t looking for. They got the vision, but they asked me to try ONE dress that was part of my “absolutely not” list in terms of style. I was happy to, they’re the experts after all. I put it on and Nadia said “oh yeah, this is the dress.”

Wouldn’t you know it, that that dress, the first one I tried on at NWLA is THE dress?! Nadia and Debra were 100% right when it came to the dress. But that’s because they know the product. Nadia carries a carefully and expertly curated line of dresses and designers, which means she really knows what she has and what will work. You really can trust her recommendations because she knows what she’s talking about.

I tried a few more but no one could deny that the first dress was it. Nadia and Debra carefully and deliberately added some accessories to complete the look and I fully had that “OMG this is IT!” moment.

I have never felt so special, so celebrated, or cared for as I did when I visited NWLA Bridal. I ordered my dress that day, and I can’t wait for it to come in.

Book an appointment and see Nadia. You won’t regret it.

Best Bridal Shop in LA!

I went to bridal stores all over LA and was so happy to find the perfect one at NWLA. Briannah was incredible - helping me find the perfect dress to find the exact look and vibe I wanted for my wedding. Nadia (owner) was also so wonderful and supportive with all the logistics. Highly recommend!
