    Amanda Is An Angel

    TLDR Amanda is an angel, and all geeky, nerdy, quirky, fandom-loving, nontraditional brides should make Lorien their FIRST stop.

    Amanda is the store owner and she runs the whole place herself. I don't know how she does it all and still is such a sweetheart.

    And a genius! I came in with a low budget, a somewhat nontraditional wedding in mind, and a lot of body image issues.

    Her picks were wonderful, and even though I ended up not loving certain dresses on me as much as I thought I would online, she knew exactly how to pivot.

    The appointment was so fun, and she was fully accepting of all my weirdness.

    I did not find my dress that day, but Amanda showed me a dress that will be coming in later that she thinks would be perfect for me. I can hardly wait to come back and get my dress.

    A magical experience

    I said yes to the dress at Lorien!!

    I could write a novel as to how much I love Lorien and Amanda. It's one of the most unique bridal salons I've ever visited. The attention to detail and curation of the decor is so magical, it truly sets Lorien apart. And you must use the restroom while you're there!

    I'd been to 6 different stores before I ended at Lorien. Amanda asked smart questions about what I liked and didn't like about the other stores I went to and dresses I tried on. I showed her a photo of my top two choices and she explained how one of them wasn't quite hitting me at my natural waist, something I hadn't considered! I so appreciated her transparency. If I didn't like a dress, she'd tell me that's great! We know what we don't want them.

    Amanda really understands how to dress all kinds of shapes and sizes unlike any other stylist I had. She 100% will help you find the most flattering dress that will make you feel absolutely beautiful.

    I feel so lucky to be a Lorien bride :)

    The Most Wonderful and Whimsical Experience

    Amanda definitely made this appointment. She was incredibly helpful and thorough. Her knowledge of wedding dresses (style, fit, alterations, etc) was extremely beneficial and my party and I truly valued her expertise.
    The shop is beautiful and whimsical which truly made for a magical experience.
    I found the perfect dress and could not be more happy with the experience.

    Best Bridal Shop!

    I loved working with Amanda even before I stepped into her beautifully decorated bridal boutique. Even through email, Amanda was attentive, kindhearted, and detail-oriented whenever I had questions.


    I watched all her Tik Toks and looked at all the photos I could of her bridal shop online because I was so excited about our appointment! But nothing compares to stepping foot into the whimsical and floral scene of her bridal shop.


    I felt so at home surrounded by floral trees and “nerdy” decor from Harry Potter, Star Wars, and Lord of the Rings. I can’t wait to visit again to pick up my dress and choose our accessories!


    I will definitely recommend this shop to anyone and everyone, especially nontraditional brides looking for anything but your classic white dresses.

    Warm and fuzzy

    Wow! What a place. The vibe is a vibe. It immerses you in an environment where you are at your best self to make an important decision! I felt so at ease. Amanda the owner was so helpful, and really listened to what I was looking for. She was the opposite of a business woman, she genuinely wanted me to find a beautiful dress. She was so sweet and made me feel comfortable and beautiful. My room was Star Trek themed which was a breath of fresh air, it took the stuffiness out of gown shopping. I can’t wait to post my wedding pics in a Lorien gown ❤️

    In style, inclusive, and out of the world

    I had the most fabulous time here! I found my dream dress - the first one I tried on, but all of the ones in Lorien I could have totally worn down the aisle.

    Amanda made me feel at home, like I’ve been at that store tons of time in the past. It takes all the drama you want to feel in wearing the most incredible day of your life, but never any of the drama that makes you feel on edge in formalwear boutiques.

    Amanda really takes into account every range of fashion senses - you can find any dress here. The dresses are also very budget-friendly without every sacrificing quality. It was a super fun, relaxed experience.

    The dress I found feels more like “me” than any other outfit I’ve ever worn in my 27 years.

    Amazing Experience

    Amanda was a huge help in getting my dress!

    The selection of dresses in the store has a fantastic variety, and the decor is a very fun and comfortable vibe. Trying on dresses was super easy, Amanda gave great input and advice, and ordering was a breeze once I found the dress.

    When I had questions about what lining color to order she sent me pictures and pulled some dresses with the linings for me to come by and see in person. She helped with cost effective options and genuinely cared that I was comfortable with my pick.

    Compared to my experience at Lorien, the other bridal shops I went to first were pushy, over done, uncomfortable, princess nightmares. If you want to try on dresses somewhere relaxing and fun with someone who will give you an honest opinion, asks the right questions, and who treats you like an adult, I can't recommend Lorien enough!

    Saved my wedding!

    Amanda at Lorien Bridal single handedly saved my wedding! I cannot say enough good things about her and her shop. But I'll try: After a series of unexpected events, I had to find a new wedding dress two weeks before my wedding. YES YOU READ THAT RIGHT. After an emotional breakdown & realizing I had no dress for my wedding, I was referred to Lorien and Amanda moved mountains to help me not only find an INCREDIBLE DRESS... but found me a dress that I love EVEN MORE than my original one! She found me my dream dress. It's so ME. My mom, maid of honor & bridesmaids agree. It encompassed every quality I told her I wanted. And I didn't expect to get them all in one. I am completely obsessed. I've never felt more beautiful. We had to get the dress overnighted - which she made sure happened - and she referred me to a tailor who also made miracles happen. I found my dream dress at Lorien. And it's because of Amanda. She just gets it and is sooooo wonderful to work with. She's the nicest, sweetest person that makes the process happy and fun. She didn't try to push any of her garments on me to buy either. She just genuinely wanted me to feel special and held space and time for me to do that. I am forever grateful. Also, her boutique is the loveliest space of all the shops I went to. She's decorated it in a way that feels intimate and special.

    Beautiful Bridal Salon, Great Experience

    We found my daughter's dress here. Great selection of gowns. Amanda is charming and helpful - no pressure. Her bridal salon is a floral fantasyland. We took a few photos of my daughter in her gown in the store. They are so lovely with the beautiful flowering trees in the background. We highly recommend Lorien Bridal.

    Cozy, peaceful, and welcoming

    Lorien Bridal feels peaceful and welcoming; spacious and cozy at the same time. Amanda stocks a wide range of gorgeous gowns and really gives you time to explore and discover, before skillfully guiding you to the *perfect* gown for your personal style. She listens carefully, asks questions, and goes above and beyond to personalize the experience for each bride. I feel so fortunate to have found this lovely, special place and to be able to call myself a Lorien Bride.

    Find the dress of you fantasy 💕

    I am completely blown away by this shop and it's owner Amanda. She delivers truly personalized care and attention to every appointment. Kind, funny, professional, and non judgemental. I didn't even have to pick a single dress myself because she understood EXACTLY what I was looking for. This place is a haven for nerdy brides, fantasy lovers, and everyone who doesn't feel right in the cookie cutter bridal shops. Thank you so much Amanda for helping me find the elven dress of my dreams!!

    Said yes to my dress at Lorien!! 🧚🏽‍♀️

    So excited that I found Lorien!! I'm actually a bridal stylist, but knew my dream dress wasn't at my bridal showroom so I searched for other awesome bridal salons! Luckily, I stumbled upon Lorien on WW and knowing that I wanted to look like a sexy, fairy queen...I knew I had to visit this nerdy, fantasy bridal wonderland lol. Amanda's shop is so gorgeous and colorful and you can tell she put so much time, effort, and creativity into her shop and all the little details that make it special and unique! I actually visited Lorien 3 times lol, 1st time just to confirm what dresses and styles I liked, 2nd time came back for a specific dress and ended up falling in love with a totally different dress lol, 3rd time came back to officially say yes to my dream dress! For all 3 appointments, Amanda was super helpful, patient, fun, and so sweet! 10/10 please visit and enjoy her shop, support her, have a great time and find your dream dress!! 👰🏽‍♀️

    Great overall experience, not just another appointment

    Lorien had such a diverse collection of dresses it was a dream to shop there. When booking my appointment I had a specific dress I wanted to try on. Amanda went out of her way to ensure she had it in store for my appointment. From start to finish the appointment was fantastic. Amanda provided suggestions and helped me pull some beautiful options to try to ensure I really found The One. The dress she ordered in ended up being the winner and amanda suggested I custom order the length to save me time and money in alternations (much appreciated)! I had a tight deadline to pick up my dress ( I live on the east coast and was flying in just for that) and when Amanda found out it may not arrive in time she worked her magic with the manufacturer to ensure it was there when my flight landed. From start to finish Amanda made finding and picking up my dress an experience, and not just another appointment.

    Absolutely amazing!

    I had such an amazing experience here! The boutique alone is so cute! Each station is themed, I was in the Disney Princess area which was perfect because I am obsessed with all things Disney and also had amazing lighting! They also had a Star Wars section which was crazy because my Fiancé and I LOVE Star Wars! I didn't even know the shop was like this and it made my experience even more amazing! The dresses were so beautiful and had a good range of different styles and most importantly had the dress I had been looking for! Amanda was so amazing and so sweet! She made me feel so special and beautiful and did fun little things that were catered to me! 100000% Recommend going here!

    A Unique and Wonderful Boutique

    I had the best experience at Lorien! I originally found the shop because I was wanting to try on a specific dress and the designer’s website said I could try it on there. I was happily surprised to see that Lorien is specifically for nerdy brides. I had been stressed about the dress buying process because I didn’t think I’d feel comfortable in a traditional bridal boutique and I had no idea something like Lorien even existed! At my actual appointment, Amanda, the shop owner, was super helpful. She asked me a few questions about what I was looking for, what I didn’t want, and what my budget was. Then I got to pull dresses I wanted to try on and she pulled some as well. My wedding is celestial themed and Amanda totally understood what I was looking for. I felt super comfortable trying on the dresses and communicating what I liked and didn’t like about each one. I could tell Amanda really has an eye for this stuff and came up with the best idea to use fabric from one dress to create a cape to go with another dress! At the end of my appointment I was torn between two dresses and decided to come back when my sisters were in town. Amanda wasn’t pushy at all about purchasing and even suggested I check out other shops in the meantime. When I came back for my second appointment, my sisters and I had a great time and Amanda was so patient with all the changing back and forth between the dresses. Overall, I had a really great experience and am so excited for my dress. I highly recommend checking out this shop especially if you consider yourself more of a non-traditional bride!

    Wonderful personalized experience

    I had a really great experience here. Amanda was absolutely wonderful. She was respectful of my budget and most of the dresses in her shop were very reasonable. The selection was great, I easily found several dresses I wanted to try. I was the only bride shopping so I had her full attention. After listening to what I liked and didn’t liked about each dress, she pulled the dress I ended up picking. It’s not what I thought I’d get, but it was the most flattering and it will be perfect for my wedding day.

    Comfortable and Colorful Bridal Shop Perfect for the Geeky Bride

    I was really struggling to see myself as a bride before I went to Lorien Bridal. I'm definitely a bit of a nerd, and I don't always find it easy to feel pretty in a traditional setting, so I this was the first bridal shop I felt like I could really relax and be myself.

    This bridal shop made me feel like whatever bridal aesthetic I wanted, be it more colorful or goofy or geeky, was totally fine!

    Amanda was great to work with, and she offered a lot of suggestions for accessories and gowns that I really appreciated. She ended up finding me the bridal accessory that really made me feel like a bride for the first time. Once I put it on I couldn't stop smiling, and now that I have it at home I keep sneaking off to try it on so my fiance doesn't see before the wedding.

    There's a great range of styles and the store is size inclusive, so I highly recommend to anyone.

    Everything you could wish for

    Lorien Bridal Boutique should be your first (and last) stop! Amanda was AMAZING, even right from my very first email inquiry. She was so helpful and knowledgeable. She asks all the right intuitive questions to really dig your dream dress out of you. I had my mind kind of set on one dress I had previously tried, but by the end of my appointment I walked out with something completely different and I couldn't be happier. I am still beaming from the experience. Aside from the amazing customer service, she also has a wide variety of really fun and unique gowns and accessories that you won't find elsewhere. Also, a very body positive and LGBTQIA+ friendly space, which is really awesome

    Looking for the ultimate say yes to the dress moment?

    I had only gone to one store before Lorien before deciding to buy a dress from here. Lorien gave me such a great experience. Everything from the ambiance, to the tiny details and references found in the store, and finally the reasonable pricing of the dresses. I reached out to Amanda on Instagram and she was able to set up an appointment with me and followed up with me to confirm the appointment. Although most of my guests were running late, my bridesmaid and I to pick out some dresses. Some boutiques don't allow you to do that, which made the experience a lot more fun. Not only that, my guests and I were the only people in the store, making wedding dress shopping a fun, memorable, and individualized experience that I will cherish.

    She made sure to ask about my budget, making sure to stick to the lower end of it. She asked me questions about what I liked and didn't like in the dresses I tried on from the day before at a different store. In addition, she was extremely helpful. I had no idea wedding dresses had to be put on a certain way and she immediately fixed that. I had gone to a store before this and was not given any guidance at all.

    Towards the end of the appointment, I was stuck on two dresses. Both were around the same price point, with similar shapes but different sleeves. She gave me some guidance again and showed me how the dress affected where it sat on my waist, which ultimately ended my indecisiveness.

    For those of you who are on the fence about visiting this place, please do so! She is a great and friendly stylist who will not pressure you and will help you find your dress for your special day. My siblings and friends enjoyed coming as well and will want to come here for their own wedding someday.

    My only advice for those who are planning a visit is to park in the Exchange Parking Lot (115 Artsakh Ave, Glendale, CA 91206). It's parid parking and only a short walk to the boutique from there, but it was pretty cheap.

    The best bridal boutique in LA

    My mom and I had an amazing time looking for the perfect wedding dress at Lorien. We have scoured 7 highly rated bridal shops in LA and Amanda gave us the most personalized and fun experience. She is attentive and very patient. We felt how much she genuinely loves to help brides in finding the right dress. Her store is charming and welcoming. I did not find the dress on my first visit at her store so I went to a bigger store the next day to try on more dresses, and there I found one that I liked but not really in love with. I called Amanda to set-up another appointment the next day to try-on the dresses I tried before to see how I feel about them and to maybe see other dresses. I got there and I showed Amanda the dress that I liked from the big store, and then the magic happened, I am wearing the wedding dress of my dreams! I finally found the one. It was perfect. Everything I have ever asked and dreamed of. What a wonderful experience. I would absolutely recommend Lorien 110% to any other brides-to-be out there. If you’re looking for a stylist who truly cares about what you want and will work with you patiently, Lorien is the place to be.

    Fabulous Boutique

    Lorien Bridal Boutique was the very first boutique I visited it is absolutely amazing! It’s a fun, sweet and whimsical environment with some seriously beautiful dresses ❤️ Amanda (the owner) is so sweet, very knowledgeable about all things bridal and dresses. She was so amazing, patient and helpful during my dress try-on process. My group and I had such a fun time, and yes, I said “yes” to the dress!! Thank you Lorien Bridal Boutique for helping me find my dream dress 🥰🥰🥰

    Awesome Experience Definitely Recommend

    I absolutely loved my experience at Lorien! Amanda was so helpful and made sure the appointment went smoothly. It was nice that my family/friends got to help me pick dresses to try on plus Amanda did a great job of flushing out what I liked and didn’t like so that it was easier to make a decision later on. I recommend Lorien to brides who want a comfortable, intimate dress shopping experience. The store is beautifully decorated and will make everyone in your party feel right at home.

    The Perfect Dress Shopping Experience

    Lorien Bridal is AMAZING! I visited several bridal boutiques in search of the perfect dress, and this was far and away the best experience. The selection of dresses is great, the whimsical themed touches in the store are so much fun, and Amanda is so kind and helpful. I found my perfect dress and I'm so excited about it!

    The store was completely shut down for my appointment, so it was only Amanda, myself, and my guests in the room. Amanda followed all current safety guidelines, and sanitizes between appointments. It could not have been better!
