    I was struggling finding an age appropriate dress for my daughter for her bat mitzvah party. She wanted "very fancy" and yet everything was VERY mature. She is also not a standard size for a typical 12 year old so trying on off the rack dresses is never an easy thing. Anjhel was amazing. She was professional and made my daughter feel pretty and good about herself, which of course was the most important part. Best experience ever! We will be back for a prom dress and then again for a wedding gown some day!

    To the plus size brides out there, I'm talking to you. And I don't mean size 14 plus size (although everyone needs the love). I'm talking to the brides out there who are size 28-30 and up. Us big girls deserve to be beautiful brides on our wedding day and there's a dress for you. I promise.

    I am a size 32-36 in street clothes depending upon what I'm wearing and where I bought it. Which makes it extremely difficult to wedding dress shop. It is a chore to find a shop willing to work with you if you are not resigned to ordering a dress off the internet that will fit you like a plastic bag (or worse).

    Jeannie, the owner, has been so helpful in helping me find a dress. She and I exchanged multiple e-mails and phone calls over the course of several weeks as I do not live in the Atlanta area. This past weekend, I drove up to Atlanta to visit the shop and the experience was great. Jeannie did not make me feel at all like I did not deserve to be beautiful on my wedding day, which is really something in the world of bridal shops. In fact, she helped me find dresses that could be customized to my size so that I could find a dress that would work for me. In the end I bought a dress that I'm super excited about and managed to stay within my budget.

    For you smaller brides out there, don't think this is only a plus size shop. New Natalies has dresses across a huge range of sizes in stock (I think I saw something like 8 or smaller all the way through 28/30 when I was there).

    I'd recommend this shop to everyone without a doubt based upon my experiences so far.

    This was the second place I visited to try on wedding dresses and it was a great experience. I went by myself as all of my family and friends live out of state. They had plenty of dresses of all styles to choose from. Andrea pulled the style of dress I was interested in before I arrived for my appointment. She was also very patient with me and made it more relaxed while working through the decision making process. I also loved the option of being able to customize my dress as much as I could and they provided me with multiple options to achieve the look I wanted. Whenever I can get a bridesmaid in town, I'll be going there to start shopping for their dresses as well.

    The staff at New Natalie's was awesome. The attendant helped me pick out the perfect dress in a style that wasn't even on my radar. She made the experience fun and seamless for myself and my guests. I will defintely recommend them to all my family and friends.

    In 2010 we went shopping at New Natalie’s for my sisters wedding dress & we had a great experience! Everybody at New Natalie’s Bridals was extremely nice and very helpful! The customer service was wonderful! The couple that owns New Natalie’s was very nice and easy to work with!! Our consultant was Piper and she was fabulous! She knew exactly what my sister was looking for and found her a beautiful dress.
    I recently get engaged and knew I wanted to go back to New Natalie’s. We visited the new location which is more spacious! There was about five other brides and everyone had their own space. No one had to fight for the mirror which was awesome. With the help of Piper and Hope, I was able to find so many beautiful dresses! These two ladies are AWESOME!!! They made the experience great by allowing me to try on as many dresses as I wanted, providing answers to questions I had, and finding the PERFECT dress I had described to them! Stephy is also GREAT!!! She helped up pick out Bridesmaid dresses! New Natalie’s quality of dresses is amazing & nothing like I have seen at other bridal stores! Not only is the quality great, but so are the prices! The selection and prices are Excellent at New Natalie’s! I actually priced my gown at another salon, and I saved a good bit of money here. They had a LARGE variety of different dresses, fabrics, prices & accessories. I would HIGHLY recommend someone going to New Natalie’s!! We have gone two times in the past three years and both times we were treated with Great Customer Service and found Beautiful Dresses!!!

    After reading various reviews online about New Natalie's, I wasn't sure what to expect. When I arrived last Saturday afternoon, it was a very quiet, calm, relaxed environment. This was a HUGE plus for me. I was promptly greeted at the front desk by my consultant, Piper. I gave her a brief description of what type of dress I was looking for. She gave me a very thorough description of how the dresses were organized, priced, and labled and then let me spend a few minutes looking through the gowns by myself with my family. She did not "hover" over me as other consultants at other stores had done, yet she did not completely disappear and ignore me. I did not feel pushed or pressured by her at all.

    Being a plus-size girl, I didn't know if I'd be able to find anything that I would be able to try on comfortably. I was very quickly proven wrong. There was a great selection of sizes and styles that I could try on. I showed Piper a picture of my dream dress, hoping that they would have it in my size to try on. She found it within a matter of minutes, but it was in a size 6. Since there was no way I could even begin to try on a size that small, Piper put me into a gown with an identical fit and silhouette, then clipped the size 6 dress to the front and the back of the one I had on so that I could see how it would look. I didn't know if this trick would really work, but it did!! I proceeded to order that dress, even though I hadn't been able to try on the sample, because of Piper's "magic".

    Bottom line: I would definitely recommend New Natalie's and my consultant Piper to other brides. Their store is not the most fancy or elegant, but their selection and staff make up for it. I was very pleased with the fact that I did not feel pressured in any way. It was a very laid back environment, yet they still maintained a sense of professionalism.

    I had a great experience going to New Natalie's to shop for my wedding dress. My co-worker recommended this location and I am so glad I took her up on it.

    Piper was my amazing consultant! She was very patient and kind and she took her time with assisting me as I tried on as many gowns as I liked. The owner was very nice to me as well.

    I would certainly recommend this location to any future bride. They have a large selection and great prices.

    I was hesitant about coming to this shop because of a lot of negative reviews I read online... but I have to say, it was actually my best experience in shopping for my wedding dress! I'm a plus size bride and a good amount of bridal stores I went to had a very limited selection for me to try on, which really discouraged and disappointed me. There are more than just skinny girls getting married in the world!!

    New Natalie's has a GREAT selection of gowns for plus size brides! That was the first thing that really got me when I went there, I actually had a chance to try on a lot of dresses because they went higher than a size 18! Of course they have more dresses for girls who are not plus size... but the selection they have is great. I cannot express to you how impressed I was with their selection.

    The prices of the gowns are also amazing!! The dress I got from them was the perfect price in my budget.

    My consultant, Carty, was also great! She was very nice and friendly. She never pressured me into purchasing a gown. In fact, no one at the store did, which I think is great because this is not something you should be pressured into doing.

    The only thing I did not care for, is the fact that they do not allow you to take pictures unless you purchase the gown. I understand the whole concept of them not wanting you to steal the dress design to make it yourself... but when you try on so many dresses, they all start to look the same and cannot remember which ones you really liked!

    Other than the whole no taking pictures thing... my overall experience was great! I highly recommend New Natalie's for your bridal dress shopping... especially if you're a plus size bride that would like to have a lot of options to try on! :)

    Just as I was about to tear my hair out over finding a dress in New Orleans, a recently married full-figured friend tipped me off to drive to Atlanta just to visit New Natalie's. I thought she was insane, but I was just desperate enough to do it, and boy I'm glad I did.
    The store isn't much to look at, but I was impressed by their large selection of plus-sized samples in all kinds of styles. I went first thing in the morning, and learned that the place does get crowded, but I received excellent service and a lot of attention because the store wasn't full. I was helped by a very nice older Caribbean lady, Carty, who was an expert and made me feel very comfortable. All the staff was friendly, including the owner.
    My entire shopping experience lasted an hour and a half - I found my dress -- Kenneth Winston for Private Label by G 3348 -- on the "Let's Make a Deal" rack at 75% off! I was able to buy a sample off the rack that was clean and ready to wear (I had one fitting) and I am still getting compliments on how gorgeous the dress was. A++!

    New Natalies was a GOD SEND! Well, really it was RUTH (seamstress) that was the GOD SEND. LOL She helped me with my dress at the last minute and was sooo helpful. Her sister Maria was great too! Thanks to both of you for making my day so special!

    I got my wedding dress from New Natalies and it was BEAUTIFUL! The staff was helpful and nice (and NOT snotty, like most Atlanta bridal shops). I wish I would have gotten my bridesmaid dresses from there (but it was too late), because they were AWESOME!!!! I would recommend New Natalies to every bride!!!

    I was able to find a gorgeous dress one month before the wedding. They helped me find something great off the rack, looked up express shipping for me and had the alterations done beautifully! I had a gorgeous dress on my special day.

    New Natalie's was an amazing, the staff was VERY friendly and professional and made you feel like a princess. They help you try on your dress, get it fitted perfectly.......I LOVED my dress and it wasnt THAT expensive! New Natalie's has TONS of different color, styles, and prices of all dresses.

    I found the dress I wanted online. Natalie's had the dress I wanted and got it in time for my wedding which was less than 3 months away. I was very pleased with the woman that assisted me while there. This is not a boutique but they have a huge selection and great prices! My $800 dress was more beautiful than a friend's $3000 dress. :) Find your dress and purchase it at Natalie's.

    The BEST and BIGGEST selection of reasonably priced gowns in Atlanta. They do sometimes order the gown for you, so please plan ahead - up to 4 months. The only thing I didn't like was their seamstresses (I think they are independent). Seamstress did a great job, but appointments meant nothing to her so I waited over an hour after my appointment time because the seamstress decided to take a "walk-in" during my appointment time.

    I must admit before writing this review I read through the others and thought I had to have gone somewhere entirely different. But, I didn't! My daughter and I after being at 2 other bridal stores ended up at New Natalie's completely on a lark. We phoned ahead to ask if it would be okay to just stop in and get a feel for what they had to offer. We were welcomed to do so and on entering the store, were greeted energetically, kindly and warmly by the husband of the owner. We had a WONDERFUL conversation with him and I just knew immediately, that we were going to be taken well care of and we were! He asked my daughter specific questions about her budget and her ideal dress...then went about showing us how to navigate the store allowing us to pick up to 6 dresses and place them on a rack for when we were ready to visit with the consultant. Not once did we feel pressured or intimidated by any of the staff as we had experienced at another well known bridal store in the area. I was both shocked and RELIEVED that the very first dress my daughter tried on immediately became known as THE DRESS! The price was amazing, the dress is beautiful and our consultant Piper was truly a gem to work with. We CAN NOT wait to go back for her fitting once the dress arrives.
    As to the additional incentives of paying up front...I can not speak to those as we have already found the place where we will be getting my daughter's tiara and we are making over my veil for her to wear so we have no need to purchase anything additional.
    I honestly feel sorry for the bad experiences some of the girls have posted here because we had nothing but a positive experience and will continue to highly recommond New Natalie's Bridals to everyone!
    OH one last side note...yes, the building is in a less than wonderful side of town and at first we nearly turned the car around to head home...I'm glad we didn't. As a former designer I visited many venders in that part of town and learned you can not judge a book by it's cover. If you are wanting a chi-chi bridal boutique experience, this is not the store for you. If you can overlook the shabby exterior and barebones interior while remaining focused on buying a beautiful gown at an amazing price than by all means...happy hunting!

    They have a great selection, The staff really listened to what I wanted and they found me the perfect dress. It also happened to be less than half my budget. They also stayed open 30 minutes late for us.

    I ordered my bridesmaids dresses from New Natalie's. They have the best selection and the dresses came back in less time than I expected.
