Lisa is amazing! She only had me try on gowns she knew would be flattering on me so we didn’t waste time. The dress fit me perfectly and only needed hemming. Would definitely recom...

My best friend and I walked in (without an appointment) to look around at the dresses. Lisa welcomed us immediately and invited us to look around. She graciously helped me try on ...
a couple dresses and VERY quickly figured out what would look best on me. She pulled out a couple dresses and I couldn’t believe how I felt. This was my second time trying on dresses but this was the first time I felt like a bride. I was amazed at how beautiful I felt in the dresses that Lisa chose for me. I loved them so much that I have booked an appointment for tomorrow to bring my mom and sisters to get their approval.
Lisa was so personable and incredibly easy and fun to talk to. I can’t wait for my appointment tomorrow with my family.
**I walked in randomly just to look, and I just might have found the one**
Let me start by saying I never write reviews, but the level of service that I received at Bridal Veil Fashions exceeded my expectations, which I feel is worthy of recognition. Lisa...
(daughter/part owner of the store), is outstanding! I have never received such great service at any bridal salon before. She is very experienced (been in the industry for 30+ years), personable, transparent, and accommodating. Lisa went above and beyond to special order wedding dresses for me to try on for my appointment (which is very rare). Lisa is extremely professional and knows how to recommend a dress that fits your criteria but also flatters your body. What I appreciate most about my experience at BVF is that it never felt like she was trying to sell me anything. She just genuinely wanted to help me find my perfect dress. She succeeded in doing so and I'm thrilled to support/promote her family business. If you're in the market for any bridal clothing needs, I would highly recommend stopping in.
Lisa at Bridal veil Fashions was amazing! I have never had such a personalized dress fitting before. My sister and I went in looking for bridesmaid dresses for our brothers (short ...
notice) wedding and we were relieved to see she had such a large stock and many were discounted! She was gracious at finding me the perfect shape wear and zipping me up half a dozen times as I debated between two dresses. She even measured my sister so she could order online at a different vendor.
It’s a cozy shops with a great selection, by appointment only but we had the whole shop to ourselves! The best experience, I recommend anyone in the area dress shopping for weddings to call Lisa
I had the best experience at Bridal Veil Fashions that I ever could have had in the search for a wedding dress. Lisa was incredibly helpful and accommodating and every dress she p...
icked for me to try on was beautiful. She absolutely has a gift for knowing what dresses will both flatter the bride and fit their personal style. I felt like we were family by the end of the fitting. I always felt comfortable sharing my opinions, never felt rushed, and came out of the store feeling as confident and beautiful as ever. She also helped pick the perfect veil to go with the dress and I have no doubts about the purchase, which was within price range. I definitely had the dream bridal dress shopping experience and will be wearing my dream dress and veil on my wedding day!
My mom decided to make a spur of the moment appointment (during shelter in place) to visit Lisa and see if we could start the wedding dress shopping process. I was nervous because ...
of COVID19, but Lisa was incredible. We wore our masks, frequently used hand sanitizer, Lisa wore gloves, and we had the place to ourselves. I felt very comfortable and it actually was very intimate in these odd circumstances. Lisa has an amazing eye for what the bride envisions and I felt gorgeous in every dress she picked for me. I found my dress pretty quickly (which I was totally not expecting) with Lisa's clear talent and expertise. I know it's a scary and uncertain time, ladies, but Lisa made this process feel as normal as possible and I feel absolutely beautiful in my dress! I highly recommend making an appointment with Lisa at Bridal Veil!
I highly recommend this be the place you go to find your dream dress!
I went to four stores before making it here and literally cried all over these sweet ladies because I was so...
worried I would never find a dress I felt comfortable in. Lisa gave me tissues and treated me like family and worked with me to help me figure out what I really wanted out of a dress. She did not sugar coat anything and was very honest about all the details and timing.
Seeing what I wanted she took dresses I liked pieces of and designed a completely unique dress, with a sketch and everything. Her communication skills are fantastic and she kept me updated and aware of where we were at every step of the way. The dress came out absolutely incredible, fit me perfectly, and I can not explain how grateful I am.
The store is an incredibly clean and comfortable place to be, and you are made to feel welcome as soon as you walk in. Both me and multiple family members have found our dream dresses here, so this should absolutely be the first place you try.
Thank you Lisa for all your help!
Bridal Veil was absolutely fantastic. I felt like Lisa really listened to what I was looking for and when she realized that they didn't have anything that fit my vision she helped...
me to put together two dresses to create my dream dress. Lisa was extremely communicative through the whole process and wonderful to work with from beginning to end. When there was a minor problem, she made sure it was completely taken care of and then went above and beyond. I also loved being able to support a local, family-owned business. I would highly recommend Bridal Veil and Lisa and her mom.
I LOVED working with Bridal Veil for my wedding. There are no more experienced and hardworking people in the business. I completely forgot to worry about our rentals and rarely see...
this level of integrity (in any business). I would recommend them to the roof for these most important functions. They wont let you down. We looked killer for our most important day and I thank Lisa and her Mom for ever.
This place is excellent for brides and maids dresses, shoes and renting tuxes
Loved working with the ladies there. I thought I knew what I wanted which didn't turn out to be true. The ladies looked at me and suggested a dress that I absolutely loved and th...
e price was great!
I highly recommend this place, i was so happy with my dress and all the attention I received there.
Lisa is amazing and made my entire experience so great! We found the perfect dress for me in the perfect size. I would recommend this shop to anyone wanting a personal experience t...
hat you may not get at a chain store such as David's Bridal. She was so helpful through the entire process and allowed me to make payments on my dress which was very helpful for my budget. Thank you Lisa for all of your help!
First of all - I wish I had gotten my dress here. I didn't even look here because I thought it was too small. I was wrong! I ended up getting a dress online that needed massive ...
alterations and my tailor sent me here to get shapewear. It is a lovely store and the mother and daughter who run it will do everything in their power to make you look your best on your big day! I got a professional bra fitting and even ended up buying everyday bras that are the best I've ever had. I also got my veil and headpiece here. The veil is lovely and half the price of those I was looking at elsewhere. It was made-to-order and shipped very quickly. The headpiece is stunning too and was reasonably priced. I wish I had looked here first for my gown since they had tons of beautiful ones in all different price ranges! And the owners make you feel like family!
I had already gone do David's Bridal and to Trudy's. Once I came into Bridal Veil Fashions though, it was a whole different experience. They really know how to take care of you in ...
there! Lisa was amazing and treated me so well. It was like I was an annoyance to the consultant I had at David's Bridal. Lisa at Bridal Veil completely understood what I was looking for and knows dresses and fashions and bodies so well. Lisa knew how to take the slightest clue as to what I was looking for and produce it. At a price I could afford. Lisa always remembered me when I called or came in the shop too. Such a completely different experience from David's where you are just a number. After shopping here I felt like it was how wedding dress shopping should go. I can't thank Bridal Veil Fashions and Lisa enough for all they did for me.
Lisa & Joanne are quite a team. Joanne was staying within my budget but Lisa took one look at me and heard my story and identified only one dress - It was PERFECT. Since w...
e dance Tango I had to be able to walk backwards without a costume malfunction. The seamstress was in shock as I started to swing my legs around, but I reassured her that it would work. I danced Tango & Greek dancing in it all night and it worked Perfectly! Highly recommend them.
I wanted to shop local and I absolutely loved loved loved Bridal Veil Fasions. Lisa was wonderful and really knows her stuff. She picked a dress I didn't think I would like but end...
ed up falling in love with it and bought it!!!! All my bridesmaids got there dresses here too and they loved them.
Lisa was fantastic. She was flexible and encouraging even after my change of heart and bought a second wedding gown. She helped me match the prefect veil to fit my personality, the...
me, and gown.
Very small family own shop - just the type of place I like to support. They give their brides plenty of attention & alterations were excellent.
I bought my wedding dress at Bridal Veil (even though I found it at Trudy's), as I wanted to support local business. Joanne and Lisa are very gregarious, bubbly, and opinionated -...
and they run a solid bridal boutique. Their energy can be a bit much, but once I got used to the way they did things I noticed it less and less, and in the end, they make you feel like family.
The absolute best thing about working with Bridal Veil was their seamstress Anna Maria, as she worked wonders with my dress. I had lost 40 pounds since being measured with it, and she didn't even blink. I loved my wedding dress, and was also quite happy with my shoes and bracelet which I also purchased there.
I'd recommend using Bridal Veil for your wedding needs!
I found my dress here. I like the family who owns the store. They try very hard to be accomodating. The daughter was the one who actually pulled my dress. I really liked the al...

and found the perfect dress for me. I am a "plus-sized" bride but that was not an issue. I felt wonderfully cared for the entire time.
Awesome service, with years of experience. It's small and personable and they go above and beyond to help you look great. Their seamstress is amazing and they have years of knowl...
