    Phenomenal!!

    Marylou was honestly amazing! The entire experience was a dream! She worked around my group’s particular needs and difficult schedule to find an appointment and kept in contact with me trying to get us in sooner when an opening became available.
    I had a clear idea of what I was looking for in a wedding gown and she truly listened, only showing me dresses with the elements I was looking for. She nailed it, found the PERFECT dress on the first try...at the end of it all, I literally bought the first dress I tried on. When my measurements were between sizes, she made extra efforts to make sure I ordered the right size to minimize costly alterations. And she even accommodated my group when it transitioned to impromptu bridesmaid shopping, never hurrying us when we ran over our scheduled time.
    The prices are great and I didn’t feel pressured to purchase accessories I didn’t want. The shop itself is adorable and was comfortable for my group. Overall, I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! I will 100% be back for the rest of the bridal party, mother of the bride, and any other formal ware I ever I need. Thank you Marylou for a fabulous experience!

    After being treated very rude by another bridal shop I had an appointment with, me and my 8 guests came to Maria's with no appointment. One of my bridesmaids recommended Maria's and I'm so glad she did! I called first and told them what happened with the other place and that there were 9 of us and I was really hoping to be able to go dress shopping because I had bridesmaids here from out of town this weekend. They told me to head over and they would help us out. When we got there, I knew they had another appointment so I wasn't expecting one on one care. But they got right on it. They accommodated all my guests, helped me pick out my dresses to try on, listened to what I wanted, and made all of our experiences awesome! I did say yes to a beautiful dress here yesterday! And I have to say, my crowd was a bit overwhelming and Victoria (my consultant) was very sweet and accommodating to all of us. I really appreciated all her help and all the staff was very nice. To be a walk in, with 9 people, and to be treated so well really says a lot. Also, they have a big variety of dresses to choose from. My bridesmaids even got to try on some dresses that they liked (I'm letting them pick their own). Just over all, a great experience. Thank you guys!

    Everyone at Maria's is wonderful but Chloe is absolutely AMAZING! I am super self conscious and she took her time with me to make me feel comfortable, not to mention she knows her stuff!

    I recommend Maria's (and Chloe!) to anyone who wants a special & meaningful bridal appointment!! You won't find a better crew or selection of dresses anywhere else!

    Maria's Bridal Connection's reply:

    Allie,

    Thank you so much for your review. I can't thank you enough for choosing Maria's and letting me have the privilege of working with such a beautiful bride like yourself. I know you will be the most beautiful bride and I cannot wait to help you and your mom every step of the way. Look forward to seeing you ladies soon! - Chloe

    I had found this wonderful bridal shop after searching all over Charlotte, NC and Raleigh-Durham, NC (where I live). I came to New Port Richey to help my cousin move in and happened in Maria's and I'm so glad I did!!!! I told MaryLou exactly what I wanted and she found it! I thought I could find the dress in my area, so I thanked them and went back to NC. After realizing my dress was only at Maria's, I worked with the bridal shop to order the dress and fly back to New Port Richey to try on the dress. It was everything I wanted! MaryLou and her staff worked amazingly to accessorize the gown, and I bought everything they added - the veil, necklace, earrings, bracelet, etc! I was quite a sight carrying my large bridal bag through the airport, but it was all worth it! Our wedding day was amazing and we were chosen to be on the cover of a bridal magazine and highlighted as the cover story. The dress really made me feel like a princess and it was all due to the excellent work of Maria's Bridal Connection! I can not recommend this bridal store enough. Thank you ladies!

    Chloe listened to what I wanted as mother of the groom and then brought dresses out that were perfect. I ended up buying two dresses. The alterations were so masterfully completed. And I am having a chiffon wrap made to match each dress. I wish I needed more dresses.

    Maria's Bridal Connection's reply:

    Dear Jerilyn,

    I can't thank you enough for choosing Maria's Bridal Connection. I am so happy to know that you love BOTH of your dresses! I hope to see you again for your next event. Thanks again!

    I got married in April 2017 and my mom, and all the men got there attire from Maria's Bridal. I love them! Chloe is so sweet and always ready to help. She put my mind at ease every time I went in or called to ask questions. The guys looked amazing and MaryLou helped me visualize what the outcome would be. Every consulate made me feel welcome and listened to what I was saying. They have so many different styles and dresses I am sure anyone would be able to find what works for them.

    I purchased a gown for my daughters wedding from Marie's. They are professional and very nice to work with. I looked all over for a mother of the bride dress and could not find one that was youthful. I walked into Marie's and I instantly knew I would like something there. The dress was perfect and I was complemented on it by almost everyone attending the wedding.

    Thank you so much for your review Lori. We appreciate the positive feedback! We hope to see you for many more events!

    We stayed past our appointment time, but no one complained when we walked away with a stunning dress from Maria's Bridal Connection! The service was amazing...we never felt rushed or pressured, but I honestly couldn't imagine leaving to find a dress somewhere else when I knew that Maria's would take care of us. The selection was amazing with so many pretty gowns to choose from. Also, they register your school name and your name so no one attending your event will be sold the same dress. An overall wonderful experience!

    from the moment i walked into the shop it was a great experience. everyone there was excited for me and wanted to help me find that perfect dress. the price was not bad either. every time i came in for a fitting they remembered who i was which made feel really good. and if i did not have a fitting i just wanted to come in and try on the dress again (which i did once) they did not have a problem with that. every girl needs to be made special for her special day and Maria's Bridal Connection more then did that. i am glad i found them and was so happy with the whole experience. with what i spent i got my dress, petticoat, vial, and flower head piece.

    The most wonderful, caring and warm bridal shop, who will do their utmost best at making sure you receive exactly what you are looking far. I ordered my wedding dress from them and they were absolutely professional and reassuring that my dress would arrive and look stunning on me. They couldn't be more right. Ms. Maria and Ms. Marylou were so sweet and loving. I had to go a couple of time by myself to try on the dress and have it altered and they made me feel as though my own mother was there with me. Just real, loving people!! I would definitely go back there if I needed another dress!! Thank you so much for all you did for me!!

    Marias bridal was very flexible and willing to work with my large bridal party and I. The place we originally were renting suits from bailed out on us and Marias stepped up and made sure our eleven groomsmen (most of them out of state) were dressed and felt comfortable. Thank you!

    I had the pleasure of purchasing my wedding dress at Maria's Bridal Connection. My bridesmaids also purchased their dresses at Maria's. I really can't say enough good things about this place. I had gone to other bridal salons and felt very defeated and confused. My indecision was definitely getting the best of me. Mary Lou was the one who helped me during my initial visit and she showed me many, many different dresses. She listened to what I did and didn't like and helped me say "yes!" to the dress. She stayed past their closing time in order to help me. A couple months later I had second thoughts about my dress, I went back and she had me try the dress on again, as well as other dresses that I wanted so I could be sure. She was so kind and told me that I could switch to another dress if I wanted to and return the other even though I had already paid in full. I ended up realizing my original dress was perfect, but this really shows the warmth and professionalism that can be found at Maria's. My girls also received great services when they purchased their dresses, and the price was much lower than the same dresses in the Tampa bay area. I highly recommend Maria's bridal. Thanks for everything, ladies!

    Maria's Bridal Connection's reply:

    Thank you for the kind words. We really enjoyed working with you and getting to know your parents as well. Best Wishes to you both!

    Maria's was such a great experience! They were so personable and easy to work with. They have a wide variety of dresses to choose from as well as mother of the bride dresses and bridesmaid dresses. My mom also found her dress at Maria's, and it was beautiful! I absolutely loved my dress and it fit perfectly!

    My daughter's wedding gown, the bridesmaid's dresses and my Mother of the Bride dress were all purchased at Maria's. We could not be any happier with the services received at Maria's. The entire staff was such a pleasure to work with. As soon as we entered the store we had a great feeling and knew we wanted to buy her wedding gown there...and we did...that first day. They have a great selection and are very helpful. The alterations needed were done beautifully and made every gown fit like a glove.
