Great Experience!

The Dresser was the 4th bridal store I went to in the OC area and by far the best experience. The store is so cute and a great place to take photos of you saying YES to the dress! The girl who helped me was great to work with, pulled beautiful styles, and didn't rush us. Not only did I get my Essence of Australia dress here, but I also got my veil and jewelry set as well! The seamstress was awesome to work with during my fittings and perfectly added on cap sleeves to my dress that I requested. 10/10 great experience start to finish!

1st time trying on dresses

The dresser was the first store I visited to look for a wedding dress. I had no idea what to expect, but I knew that I wanted a mermaid style dress. Meagan was my bridal consult she pulled dresses that I really like it really gave me a better idea of what I was looking for. I’m so happy she pulled the essence of Australia dresses because of her I fell in love with this designer. There was a dress she had me try on that I absolutely loved but I did want to visit at least 1 more store before I said yes. The designer was having a trunk show so I really wanted to go. Although I didn’t end up buying my dress at the dresser I did end up buying the same dress that Meagan pulled for me except that I bought it at the trunk show because of the discounts I received. The dresser is a beautiful store and I loved my bridal consultant and because of her I knew exactly what dress I wanted. I wish I could have bought here since the dresser is much closer to where I live, but I just couldn’t pass up the deal at the trunk show. I do definitely recommend this store ask for Meagan if possible.

I said ‘Yes’ at The Dresser!

I had the absolute best experience saying yes to the dress at The Dresser Bridal! I made my appointment early January for an appointment in late February. It was an easy process and they had great time options. When I went to my appointment, I was immediately greeted when I walked in with my girls. Note* you are only allowed 3 guests with you due to seating purposes, which is plenty when trying of wedding dresses. My stylist, Elitza, was super sweet and brought me into my fitting room area and immediately asked if we wanted champagne. While we sat sipping, she asked my likes and dislikes of wedding dresses I had seen or previously tried on. Since this was my first time, I showed her some pictures of dresses I liked and described dresses I had seen while looking around the shop. She was super patient with me while I tried on my dresses. When I walked out in the dress I ended up saying yes to, she also smiled with me because she knew how much I loved it. While I was in front of the mirrors, I also had other stylists walking by complimenting me the whole time, which makes you feel like a million bucks.

Overall, it was a wonderful experience. All the girls are super helpful and are there to help you feel and look great! Can’t wait to pick up my dress and do my fitting. Highly recommended this Dress shop to any bride!
