    An Amazing Experience From Start to Finish!

    Laura and her team were so professional and amazing to work with for our wedding! Her shop is beautiful and her staff are well versed in their attire. I enjoyed working with them and appreciated their patience as I spent a few appointments to make my ultimate dress decision. I had a couple reservations about structure/fit, and Laura was able to customize the dress with extra boning support and varied fabric for more security for my specific wishes. When I went to pick up the dress, I thought I might then have to make these adjustments with a seamstress, but she had already customized the order and had the dress produced that way. I was blown away! It really made me feel special and secure in my choice! And her fees are very reasonable on top of all the special treatment I felt I had received!
    We also purchased my Matron of Honor's dress from her shop (we had a very small wedding, just a single bridesmaid so this was the only dress we needed for our bridal party) and it also arrived on time and was gorgeous! I ended up purchasing my beautiful hair pin from her as well. You can tell she carefully curates her available stock to go together beautifully.
    I really felt so well taken care of, and am glad to have helped support a local businesswoman! I cannot recommend A Bride's Design enough!!

    Beautiful little boutique!

    I absolutely love my wedding dress that I found at A Bride’s Design! The boutique is small enough that it is not overwhelming, but they still have a varied selection of dresses to choose from. All of the styles are gorgeous and very affordable. The front of my dress was sheer, but Laura was able to sew in extra fabric to customize it how I wanted. I felt so beautiful wearing my dress on my wedding day!

    They made my dream come true!

    The most amazing bridal shop - ever! Such wonderful and caring staff. I had a specific look for what I wanted, and the owner, Laura, literally sketched it up and created my dream dress! There's no better feeling than having my own one-of-a-kind dress for our special day! The dress was such great quality and beyond stunning! Also purchased beautiful accessories here too! Highly recommend!

    Laura is an amazing designer and seamstress. She did an absolutely beautiful job on my personally requested Victorian vintage wedding design, that exceeded my expectations. If you are looking to have the wedding dress of your dreams uniquely created for you, call Laura! She was also very accommodating to my very hectic schedule. Laura excels at customer service, and I highly recommend her.

    Laura and her team did such an amazing job on my dress. I walked in to the store and saw a sample in my style. Once I tried the sample on, Laura sketched up the dress I was looking for and got it on order. I could not have asked for a better dress! The price was reasonable for having ordered a personally designed dress and alterations are also extra. I ordered the dress in October of 2016, and we came down to the wire and the week of my wedding in late August 2017 for it to be finished, but it fit and looked beautiful on my day. I have received many compliments. I also ordered my veil from here. I highly recommend working with A Bride's Design!

    A Bride's Design is absolutely the most incredible bridal shop. Laura the owner is completely incredible and so great to work with. Any of the ladies who work in the shop are wonderful at helping and so kind. Everyone here makes the experience so special. I bought my custom wedding dress, custom veil and a custom hair piece from a Bride's Design. Every single piece was completely gorgeous and I received so compliments on it all. The whole process with them makes you feel so special. Their shop is so adorable and personal. It truly makes you feel like a bride from the moment you walk in. She has a huge selection of anything you could want as a bride and everything is high quality, reasonably priced and completely gorgeous. I highly recommend working with a Bride's Design! I am eternally grateful for how much they impacted my perfect day!

    Truth be told, I was dreading the dress-finding process. I do not wear a lot of dresses in general, and I the prospect of trying on dozens in one day was incredibly stressful. A Bride's Design was my final stop of the day, and I have to say I'm glad it was. After hours of being crammed into gowns that were not my style and feeling like the salespeople were only interested in making the biggest possible commission, I walked into a beautiful old home and was greeted by the fabulous Laura. I instantly felt like Laura cared about making my day special and ensuring I loved my gown. Her designs are all lovely in unique ways and can be customized with the multitude of accessories she offers. When it was clear I'd found "the dress," Laura went to work. Before I knew it, I was also wearing a gorgeous veil, a blingy sash, sparkly earrings and a matching bracelet. It was all so perfect together, and made me feel for the first time like a real bride-to-be. Needless to say, I bought the whole package.

    Laura and her team were also wonderful in helping me schedule fittings on a tricky timeline (I live in California), and made sure to keep me updated on the status of everything in the months leading up to the big day. I couldn't have been happier with my dress or the quality of service I received at A Bride's Design. Thanks again!

    I found my dress somewhere else, but A Brides Design was closer to my home (Still almost an hour away) and they carried the "Moonlight Bridal" line, I emailed the owner Laura & she was quick with responses and told me she could definitely order my dress for me. Her price on the dress was over $100 more affordable than the other place, when it came in I was able to try it on at her shop, and the shop is seriously too cute, and although I am not having her do my alterations she offered great input!!

    She also sold my sister in law her dress, and she even came to the venue the day of the wedding and "tied" all of us bridesmaids dresses from some etsy site. Shes truly talented and loves what she does.

    i would definitely recommend !! :)

    Laura and her interns were wonderful to work with. I only tried on two dresses and the second was THE ONE. My husband and I had to postpone our wedding plans for a while due to unexpected circumstances and Laura held my dress for as long as needed. She did a FABULOUS job with my alterations. Highly recommend!

    I purchased my wedding dress from A Bride's Design. It is exactly what I wanted and the price was perfect. Laura makes all of my fittings a wonderful experience. We also ordered all of the bridesmaid dresses from her; they are fabulous! You can't go wrong with A Bride's Design.

    Laura gave me the dress of my dreams! I had searched at so many other bridal boutiques for the dress that I had always envisioned, but nothing was coming close until I walked into A Bride's Design. I immediately fell in love with my dress and didn't want to take it off. Her gowns are absolutely gorgeous and so unique - and they are an AMAZING value. I ended up way under budget and my dress was better than I could have imagined. She also sells gorgeous jewelry and garters, so I purchased my garter, my earrings, and my bracelet from her and they were perfect. Laura was so responsive, sweet, and professional through the whole experience - from first appointment, fittings, and final fitting. I cannot recommend her enough.

    Laura is a true talent!! She created my DREAM dress that I could not find in any bridal store. Not only did she create and design my dress but she was at my house the morning of the wedding to steam and make sure everything was perfect! She truly made me feel and look beautiful. She also designed my mom and my mother in laws dresses and my rehearsal dinner dress! She was so easy and great to work with. She is a beautiful person inside and out! Thanks again Laura!

    I recently got my wedding gown from A Bride's Design. Laura (the owner) was amazing to work with. The dresses at her boutique are unique and absolutely beautiful! The prices are extremely reasonable and she is able to customize everything and anything! She was very professional throughout the entire process and had wonderful attention to detail. She is very experienced in dress-making and is able to do wonders! I would strongly checking out her shop!

    Laura made my dream wedding dress for me. When I walked into her shop, I saw these amazing and unique dresses (at VERY reasonable prices) and one of them was perfect... with a little alterations. She was able to take the lace from my mother's wedding dress and make a top with sleeves built into the dress. It was gorgeous and so perfect. She was the utmost professional and was able to have my dress ready in a very short time (I found her in April and got married that September). Thank you so much, Laura!

    A Bride's Design is a Bride's dream come true...gorgeous gowns and really amazing prices. Laura, the owner and designer at A Bride's Design is so sweet and amazingly talented. I loved all of her dresses. I tried on dresses at Catans, David's Bridal and at one other bridal shop and there was no comparison once I tried on the designs here. Seriously amazing and the shop is something out of a romantic movie...love everything about the place and Laura!!! Highly recommend!!!

    I had the most wonderful experience buying my wedding dress at A Brides Design. I can not say enough how utterly amazing and talented Laura Smith is. The bridal salon its self is gorgeous and there are so many wonderful dresses and bridal accessories to choose from. I had a fantastic experience going to the salon with my family to pick out my wedding dress. I tried on several different dresses and eventually fell in love with one of Laura's original creations. Laura truly knew how to put my wedding vision all together. I ended up buying my wedding dress, veil, head piece and earrings there and I could not be any more pleased with how everything turned out. During my alterations I bought Laura my grandmothers veil to have sewn into my dress and she came up with the fabulous idea of turning the lace trim into a one of kind garter. The garter was such a amazing piece that just meant the world to me. Overall I had an absolutely wonderful bridal experience. Laura and her staff were so welcoming and extremely talented they made me feel so special during the entire process. I would HIGHLY recommend this bridal salon!

    Laura works with you personally to find the gown that perfectly fits you and your wedding! I looked forward to every fitting and consultation because the boutique is so beautiful and Laura is so knowledgable and friendly. I could not have been happier with my gown nor with the service and prices at A Bride's Design.

    I absolutely LOVE A Bride's Design! I was a little hesitant at first because I am not from the area, so I had to rely on online reviews. I didn't want to go to a huge store like David's Bridal, I wanted something a lot smaller and more personal. I decided to hope for the best and made an appointment. When I first walked in, I was a little worried that I may not find a dress because there was a MUCH smaller selection than your average bridal store. However, I soon discovered that even though there was a smaller selection, EVERY SINGLE DRESS was GORGEOUS! You didn't have to rummage through a bunch of unflattering and hideous dresses. To my surprise, I liked every single dress that I tried on, which made my decision even harder! I also liked that Laura isn't pushy and doesn't force you into making an immediate decision. She is also very flexible and easy to work with. I would definitely recommend A Bride's Design to EVERYONE in search of a beautiful, yet affordable wedding dress! She also has some really cute bridesmaid dresses:)
