Bella Couture

I found my dream gown there and it was perfect in every way💕

ngs and they were wonderful to me! Kelsey found a bunch of dresses that were the style I was looking for and got so excited with me when I told her what I was wanting for my day of. We found the perfect dress with her and I was able to buy the sample dress so it wasn’t as expensive as I originally thought it would be. Everyone there was very helpful and very sweet and I’m so glad I chose Bella Couture and wouldn’t recommend anywhere else as highly as I recommend these wonderful ladies!

ble in plus sizes is quite impressive! I was able to buy a sample size at a very decent discount and had alterations including about 4 inches taken out of the chest area and a 3 point bustle, as well as some fastener repair for $100 (they only accept cash for alterations to keep prices low). Overall a fabulous experience, though the fairytale feeling wears off after the initial purchase, but I think that’s normal.

my dress up and it was huge. I told the staff and they blew it off and I had to re ask them to alter it. They told me to call two months before I left for my destination for the wedding. I left not thinking that that may be too late. I called a week after pick up and was told they could not alter my dress. They gave me three alternate places and none of them could alter my dress or helped to find a solution. I called Bella couture and told them the situation and they didn’t have a solution. They told me from the beginning they would alter my dress and we asked to set it up the day I bought the dress and they said we would be fine setting it up when it came in. When it came in they again would not make an appointment to alter my dress, telling me to wait. They did nothing to find a solution and I had to go to another bridal shop and pay triple to get my dress done. I should not have gotten my dress with them and regret it.

ver thought you would’ve tried on. They have the best designers (Hayley Paige, Lazaro, Pronovias), giving you as many options as you could want or need. I purchased my gown and veil from them and I am in love!

everything is perfect for the big day! Her attention to detail and experience is very much appreciated, especially when deciding between a few of their dresses. Thank you so much for my beautiful dress!!

ice ranges!

d the widest selection of gowns in so many different styles to choose from. I felt this shop had gowns that were so reasonably priced for every bride, yet looked so elegant for the cost. I got my dream gown at Bella Couture thanks to the sweet consultant that helped me find my style and feel like the most beautiful bride!! I would recommend to anyone!

every bride here. Thank you

et that experience with saying yes at Bella Couture's!

n in, my bride has gone to Bella Couture, so when I got engaged, I just HAD to get my dress from this wonderful group of people as well.

ous.

e way my dress at Bella Couture had. I loved my dress and veil, and the ladies in Bella Couture are very sweet and helpful. Unfortunately, my dress did come in late and it was a scramble to get alterations done in time. My veil was also back ordered, though that did not require altering so it was alright. I ordered my dress shortly before New Years, and it did not arrive until the second week in July. This was only a few weeks before my wedding. Because of this I was not able to do bridal portraits before my wedding like I had planned and everything was generally rushed. The best piece of advice I received too late, was to give a false wedding date a month ahead of when you really are getting married. Also, though ultimately I was happy with my alterations they do not offer in-house alterations like some other bridal salons in town do. I love my dress, but the last few weeks before my wedding were incredibly stressful.

tyle I was looking for and I ended up finding my dream dress that very day. I LOVED my dress and got lots of compliments!

ey also do not call you back when they say they will. Also they do not offer alterations on site which makes it hard when your dress comes in late like mine was.

utique and I will recommend it to all of my friends!!!

y bridesmaids dresses! The serves was excellent, the dress selection was exquisite, and the attention to detail was phenomenal! I am a local model and I've shown gowns from many designers, so when I came into the shop my standards were high, much higher then I thought I could ever find. However, I found my perfect gown and I (or my husband) could not have thought I looked more perfect

able experience!!! And found my perfect dress!

s to buy, they were honest about their products (we did our homework!) we didn't find that everywhere in town. There sales tax is only 5%! I'm sending all my friends and family there! It's the BEST place for wedding gowns in Birmingham!

y special, not only for the bride but the entire wedding party. The staff is wonderful! They genuinely care about you finding the perfect wedding gown and work tirelessly to see that everything comes in perfectly! Our bridesmaid gowns were simply gorgeous! I recommend this shop 100 percent without a doubt! Thanks again Bella Couture staff! I'll be back when its my turn to walk down that aisle!

on my dress!

ne! The only thing I did not like about the store was that I felt pressured to buy extra things, like a veil and sash, which I wished I would have waited and found cheaper somewhere else! The dress didn't even end up needing a sash/it wouldn't work on the day of the wedding, but they convinced us it did! They were great though; the owners are Christians and they pray for all of the brides that come in, which I thought was really sweet.

oming into the store, but about 10 minutes in I was completely comfortable and relaxed. I had a budget to work with and they were very respectful of it. They did everything from clinching the back of the dress as tightly as possible for me to see what it would look like to grabbing belts for dresses that looked too plain. The dress I chose was unique and I still haven't seen one even close to the beauty of it. Thanks, Bella Couture! I highly recommend them to any bride!!

ecial. The dress selection is definitely adequate, and the prices are all under $5000. The only catch is that they do not do alterations in store, but I took my dress to Martha's Tailoring in Birmingham, who did an INCREDIBLE job on hemming my dress which was all lace on the bottom. I also bought all of my bridesmaid dresses at Bella Couture, I could not have been more pleased with everything.

d to wait 30 minutes even though we had an appointment. They don't have many fitting rooms. But, I bought my dress of the rack and used the alterations lady they suggested. They even steamed it for free when I took it back after alterations.

making sure I found the right dress and I was happy instead of focusing on getting my money. They allowed me to take photos of all the dresses and even suggest I look over them before returning so I felt confident in my decision. They have an amazing dress collection as well. They were tons of dresses I was obsessed with. It also offered a variety of price ranges.

liked and I tried on all of them. In the end, Carol picked the perfect dress for my budget and figure. My husband couldn’t stop telling me how beautiful I looked on our wedding day. Thank you so much Bella Couture!

rice ranges for each designer they carry to make shopping easier. I'd recommend making an appointment so you are sure to get that personal attention, but they are only required on the weekends. Check them out if you're shopping in the Birmingham area!

She is the most precious, genuine person I have ever met and made the process of finding my wedding dress so incredibly special and memorable. I am so thankful for the experience I had with Bella Couture!

selection was remarkable!! They had very unique gowns that were not available in most shops I visited!!

my dress, so again, I had to rely on the service of the lovely ladies at Bella and trust my instincts. I knew that the dress that Bella had would be perfect on my wedding day and went with my gut feeling.

dress and help you put it on and zip it up, which was nice. Buttt, lie about your budget!!!! I went with my mother and MOH. When asked about my budget I told her I wanted to spend under $1500 (which I did want to..but didn't necessarily mean if I fell in love with a dress that was $2000 that I wouldn't get it). So, all 3 of us fell in love with a dress that was $1700. I entered the room with one of the staff ladies and she went through all of the dresses I had chosen, and took away every dress over $1500. (I wasn't being unrealistic and trying on $7000 dresses..they were all under $2300). My mother was paying for my dress and did not have a budget; I just didn't want her to spend a lot on a dress. They never bothered to ask my mom her budget. My mother was furious they would not let me try on the dress she loved. (I didn't tell my mom until we were in the car and headed to the next bridal store. She was so confused. She did not understand why I only tried on 3 dresses and not the one we all loved and why I rushed out of there. I did not want to cause a scene and that definitely would have happened had my mother known.) They definitely lost themselves some money that day. Do they not work on commission?! How are you not going to let a bride try on a dress she loves?! Pissed!!!

ht two dresses!!!

ses I may have never even looked at. When I found the perfect one she jacked me up with jewelry and a veil and I was in love. Then, I found out the sample was half off! Great experience
