    Best Dresses in town.

    Ok so I was on a bunch of Facebook bridal planning groups and I kept seeing brides buying dresses and them selling it to get something else. Its insane to me. I saw online the type of dress I wanted and the style. So when i made my appointment with The Altar Bridal i showed them a picture. I tried on something similar and I got a great reaction from my family. Boom the rest was history.

    I loved my experience at The Altar!

    I bought my wedding dress about four months ago from The Altar, and have nothing but good things to say about them! My stylist and all of the ladies were all so warm and welcoming, and great hype women!

    A-ma-zing!

    My cousin was looking for a wedding dress for her 20 year vow renewal and the large chain stores just weren't giving her what she truly wanted. We started digging and came across The Altar Bridal. We decided to take a chance and I am so glad we did. This place gave us the fresh breath we needed in looking for her dress. We were immediately greeted when we came through the door by our bridal consultant Yessi (I hope I spelled that right). She was so friendly and warm, it was great. From the moment we stepped in, we were treated like royalty. The level of professionalism and courteousness is off the chain. She took us to our styling area which was a nice large space for the four of us. The bride's room was very large and had enough space for her to hold the 12 gowns she ended up trying on. Unlike some of the other stores where I had to step in and help her try on the dresses, clip them, etc., Yessi was all over it. Not only did she pull dresses (and have us help her pull) she took control of helping her to get them on, clip them in the right places and help her out onto the platform. Even more than that, her knowledge was top notch. She made suggestions, gave us new visuals, knew about the designers and more! So much so, she changed our strapless direction into we must have sleeves. I know this is long so I'll cut it now but I'll just say if you or anyone you know is looking for a beautiful gown that she won't see several other bride's trying on...this is your place! Beauty, professionalism and oh yeah...great prices. Thanks Altar Bridal!

    I found the dress of my dreams 💕and i could actually AFFORD IT 😊

    Before I even start talking about how much I love my dress, I must start with how helpful Ava was. My mom and I walked in without an appointment, hoping to just browse styles and get an idea of a price point. Ava was finishing up with another bride and I was given the freedom to choose any of the gowns I wanted to try on. The flexibility in deciding for myself what I wanted to try on was wonderful. Since I had been browsing Pinterest for many years, I think I knew what I was looking for.
    Trying on the dresses was the fun part. Ava was so helpful in making sure I was comfortable and was organically happy for me. She truly made the experience unforgettable. She had also proven that she has been in this industry for a very long time. I felt like I was in safe hands.

    The selection of gowns was great! I learned that they get new dresses in every couple months. Even if we hadn’t found “the dress” in our first stop, I was definitely going to come back to check out their new arrivals. I tried on about 15 dresses..... the second dress I tried on was THE ONE.

    When I asked how much this STUNNING dream dress was.... I was SHOCKED to hear it was only $999!!!!! That. Does. Not. Exist. The dress I chose was extremely detailed and is of amazing quality. Ava explained to me that these were designer sample dresses, never altered or worn, only ever tried on. The prices on ALL of the dresses were unbeatable!!! THAT alone is a reason to go check it out!

    Girls..... I have friends that have paid 3k for their dresses.... this dress is very affordable, but it is also stunning. Good quality, great atomosohere, wonderful pricing, and Ava and their seamstress are both very helpful and knowledgeable. I feel like i won the lottery. Save your money, and get your dream dress at this shop. You won’t be let down!!

    not your typical Bridal Boutique

    I really appreciate a type of Boutique like this. They are a contingent store where you buy off the rack and you take that dress home, meaning no waiting and no getting a dress that was completely different when it did actually came in. Especially with Covid, it was a huge relief knowing that I already had my dress ready to go and I didn't have to worry about the delay in shipping. Also if you were a bride like me who didn't have thousands of dollars ( nor did I want to spend that much on my dress) this was a perfect solution.

    Found the perfect dress here!

    I had my best wedding dress shopping experience here. They listened well to my expectations, stuck within my price range, and their dresses are beautiful. I loved their willingness to show me what the dress might look and feel like given certain alterations. Fantastic staff. Wonderful atmosphere. So many dresses to choose from.

    Great experience!

    I purchased my dress and veil from The Altar Bridal and had a great experience! Our stylist, Monique, was very personable and thoughtful--she made me and my guests feel very comfortable and offered great counsel. She asked very productive questions which utimately helped me make a decision. It can be overwhelming choosing from sample gowns, especially when there are multiple other brides looking at the same selection, but the stylists are very in sync and work together to help you find exactly what you are looking for. I highly recommend!!

    Great Selection and Wonderful People

    I cannot recommend this place enough! The dress shopping experience had been the most overwhelming part of my Wedding Planning. Monique and team were there to help to make it incredible. Both their impressive selection and their expertise was everything I was hoping for. While the search might have spanned a couple days, I finally was able to find the perfect one.

    Limited but decent value

    My dress was lovely, my saleswoman was very nice and picked a great dress. When I first arrived they asked my size and to look around, I looked in bigger sizes, but def could have looked anywhere, I wish that was communicated more. They are "one of a kind" dresses- for their shop, meaning they may not have the same style in a different size. It was still a little pricey, but better than the original price. They do not accept returns, only buy-backs for less money- it is stated on their website.

    The Altar Bridal's reply:

    Hi Chelsea, thank you so much for the wonderful review!

    Going off of the picture and the information from your customer sheet we reviewed, we did have to stay in a certain size area, so we were not able to to look anywhere. Stylists always direct you to the size that would best fit you since we are off the rack and only have the sizes in stock since we do not order. Being out in a dress that is too small is never comfortable and we would never want to have a bride do that.

    We have dress from $99 to $3000, so a price range for every bride. We are more of a bridal outlet, there is a discount from the original price on every dress and yes some can be more then others for sure, but a price point for everyone.

    We are so happy you found your dream dress! Please tag us in pics from the wedding so we can see the final look on the day!!!

    Thank you!

    Nice Shop but....

    My mom found them online and I thought they’d be easy to work with being close by. Walked in and they certainly have an abundance of dresses to choose from. I gave a price point and the assistant (Emily) pulled some dresses. She hung them in the room but besides offering verbal support was not much help at all. Wedding dresses are often hard to put on by oneself and she never once offered to assist. Then once it came time to buy the dress she proceeded to stand there as the clerk checked us out and said, “you’re welcome to tip your assistant but it’s not required” What?! Now maybe I should have known this, but what a way to make an already expensive shopping experience more expensive and awkward! How can you not when she’s standing right there! Plus, she went ahead and recommended the tailor upstairs from them since I had a short time with alterations to my wedding day and I should’ve gone elsewhere as well. Tailor was rude and did not often listen to my requests for changes. Obviously they received a kickback for working together. Just be forewarned that they like to be tipped for basically doing nothing but telling you how great you look in a dress. Dress was beautiful but I wouldn’t have gone there if is known what I do now.

    The Altar Bridal's reply:

    Hi Rachel,

    When assisting our brides we work very hard to ensure they have all the support we need. We offer assistance of course if needed and guidance throughout your appointment. Most brides prefer to dress on their own, but we are always there for anyone if needed, we would never want you to feel like you're struggling to get into a gown.

    Emily is one of our top stylists, so I am so sorry you did not feel she was giving you the best assistance during your appointment.

    Tips are not required as you stated. Our stylists do not make commissions, so just like your hair stylist or your nail tech you can leave a tip for them, but as you stated it is not required nor does it have to be extravagant.

    Our tailor Ellen is the sweetest person you will ever meet and no she does not work off of kickbacks, she is her own business.

    Our stylists definitely do not do "nothing" at their jobs. They are highly skilled and talented woman who take pride in their work. They train for this position, as it is not just any old retail job.

    This is a very mean spirited review for a company that works extremely hard to make every brides dreams come true! We hope any future bride reading this refer to our other reviews and our Google reviews where you will see we have 5 stars across the board!
