e. I showed her a few dresses I had liked online and then she guided me through the racks to check out dresses in person and discuss more options. Everyone at Winnie Couture was so kind and helpful in finding the right dress for me - thank you so much!

ghout the process of choosing the dress. The ambience of this salon is so elegant and enhanced my shopping experience. There was plenty of seating for my family and bridal party to join me in the shopping experience. Champagne was served. This salon had beautiful options for dresses and accessories; it was such a wonderful part of the wedding planning process!

dn't have asked for a better experience! The dresses were gorgeous and the staff were really friendly and helpful. If you're undecided about where to buy your wedding dress, make an appointment with Winnie Couture and go for it. You won't be disappointed!

daydreamed about wearing a wedding gown. Winnie Couture is the most elegant bridal shop I've ever seen, with top-notch customer support! When we got there, we were given a fantastic day and entertained like kings and queens. I had a beautiful wedding dress and I cannot thank enough Winnie for being such an angel to me. A must visit bridal salon!

l! I was assigned to a very fantastic and highly professional bridal stylist. She is really knowledgeable and was extremely patient and helpful to us. She is well skilled about the production of all Winnie Couture wedding dresses, including their lace types and what alterations are possible if ever. I am quite tall and she immediately recognized which outfits would look well on me. She also asked all the correct style questions and was able to choose dresses that suited my personality. My friends and I were there for an hour, and she was wonderful the entire time. I highly recommend Winnie Couture if you want a great wedding dress on your day!

ity bridal gown boutique in Houston and one thing I particularly enjoyed about them is that all of the dresses they have are ABSOLUTELY stunning, and they also offer alterations. If you're adaptable and open-minded, this can be an awesome way to cut costs on your wedding gown! My bridesmaids and I loved Winnie Couture, and I'd recommend them for your visit if you're looking for a reasonably priced gown for your wedding. Thank you Winnie Couture for I had a GREAT WEDDING EXPERIENCE!

onestly, I had spent all day in the city going from shop to shop at that time, and I was struggling and worried I wouldn't be able to find my dream dress. I was thinking that I was totally lost and hopeless. But then my friend mentioned that she spotted a store named Winnie Couture on Instagram, so we visited to their website and fell in love with the designs! They have ballgowns, A-line dresses, mermaid style and many more! So, I scheduled an appointment within a week, and the entire experience was terrific! When I have questions about the progress of my custom dress, they respond quickly to my messages and are very humble and understanding. They truly care about me and I appreciate their kindness so much. So, if you're a future bride, don't waste time and make this your first stop! Thank you, Winnie Couture, for the help and love. XOXO Allison.

e true. I swear to God! You feel as though your wedding is the most significant wedding they have, because of the stylist’s attentiveness and patience. I only got positive feedback about my appearance and I so LOOOVVEED my dress because it was literally my ideal! I didn't even get to pick my wedding dress. 😊 When I tried it on, I started crying with happiness because my stylist had chosen it for me. I have nothing but praise for this bridal store. I highly recommend Winnie Couture Forevverrrr!

a more fitted style of dresses to really get the features that I loved the most. I actually like KEZIAH dress as it’s so perfect for me but in the end, the TWYLA gown was the very last dress I tried on and I immediately fell in love with it…I mean… it was so comfortable for me and it was like… it’s design for me and I’m the chosen one. The white color was so beautiful, the plunging beaded deep V-neck with a layered tulle skirt finished with a horsehair hem were also pretty all together. 😊 I know that they offer alterations and so we needed to do some to achieve a great fit, but I kinda actually loved it so much just the way it was, but yeah...we need to have some. 😊 I was concerned about the timeline because my wedding was four months away, but gladly I received my gown within 2 months, during which time she sent me updates and photos of the gown in production. She has kept me updated every step of the process. Loved her so much! I was overjoyed that my dress was from Winnie Couture and not from a much larger store where anybody might have your similar outfit. If you're getting married soon or in the near future, this is the PERFECT place to purchase your dress. You won't be disappointed! They were truly able to help me find the dress of my dreams!! Thank you again.

dress here [I purchased the dress CAIRO]. I felt bad for a long day of dress shopping when I arrived at 1:40 for my 2:00 appointment and was not catered until after 2:45pm. When I met my bridal stylist, however, I knew this was going to be a fun experience. And it really was!!! She was absolutely incredible I must say. She then pulled out a few dresses after I told her my budget but I turned down some of them before even trying them on as I can see that it’s not really for me. However, the first dress she chose was so amazing that it had already surpassed the dress to beat in my ideals. She let me into the room full of gowns and as I looked around, I noticed a dress that really caught my attention. At first, I wasn't going to take it out because it had floral prints, which I didn't think I liked, so I took it but eventually had to really buy the CAIRO one as I liked very much. All I can say, is that I felt very lucky to have been partnered with her. I'm a difficult shopper actually, but her kindness and patience make me feel so at ease and so then I kinda had fun with the shopping thing! Yay! 😊 Anyway, I strongly advise you to schedule a morning appointment rather than an afternoon, which a thing I did not do. Lmao! Also, when she tries to sell you something you don't agree with, just be open-minded and be prepared to say no... So, I would absolutely recommend Winnie Couture to any bride coz they are a 5 star!! Superstar!!! Thankiesssss, Winnie Couture! I had the great shopping and a wonderful wedding!!

a wedding dress before, I assumed a place that sells $4,000 couture dresses would know what they were talking about but that wasn’t the case at all. The dress came back a total train wreck and a completely different neckline. It was so heinous, they offered to make corrections to the dress at their third party tailor who somehow made things WORSE. However, corporate flat out refused to talk to us so it was just a back and forth with the poor girl who wasn’t even the one who sold me the dress. Even after weeks of our professional seamstress working on the dress, I look at the pictures of my wedding and am so disappointed that this was the dress I said yes to. Don’t fall for their price tags! They certainly won’t make you feel like a blushing bride when things go wrong.

nderful experience here and I highly recommend!

to choose from . They made my daughter choosing and selecting her dress a absolute dream ..

ted another store just to try other styles on but came back to Winnie's with my mom, my aunts, and my cousins to say "yes"! The aesthetics of the shop was very modern and bridal. Big mirrors and great lighting! Also champagne! Winnie advertises that they have "classic, modern, & vintage style" which I felt to be 100% accurate. I would consider my personal style to be chic minimalists and I found the perfect dress that was simple with a touch of lace and bling. I tried on dresses that were more dramatic that I did not favor but they were still beautiful... basically they have various styles that fall within "classic, modern, & vintage!" I liked that during my first visit Michelle put me in dresses that I said I would not like but ended up liking... I highly suggest trying on multiple styles your first visit because you never know! I always thought I would go with a basic dress (no lace, no bling, just satin material) but once I tried on dresses that had a little touch of bling and lace I fell in love. Once Michelle knew what I liked/disliked, she was able to bring out styles I loved. Michelle was great and never pushed me to say yes to a dress. She provided useful input and helped me decide on the one but was never pushy. She did send me follow-up texts asking if I wanted to make another appointment after my first one which was very helpful. I was finishing up a summer class and working full time so it was nice to have texting as a form of communication... Michelle was able to text me videos of dresses as well! Also, my dress has a cape which I fell in LOVE with.... the other bridal store I went to did not have capes... so if you really want a cape I would check out Winnie Couture!

ld the stylist out budget and she stuck to it. The one time there was a dress out of our limit, she asked if it was okay to show me the dress.

. On both my visits I never felt pressured or rushed. I never thought I wanted a lace gown, till I found my dress at Winnie!

s super friendly. I had worked with Lindsey, and she was awesome!! She was extremely attentive and inquired questions to help me narrow down my style. The store's selection was quite large. She was very knowledgeable of the store's inventory and recommended me dresses that were my style. I ended making 2 trips to this store before I found "the dress." During my first visit back in Nov-17, Lindsey had informed me their newest 2018 collection will be released soon. While I saw there was a dress that I could have said yes, I was very intrigued with their new collection. Lindsey was awesome, and she did follow up with me at the end of Jan-18, informing me the 2018 collection was now available. I excitedly set my second appointment during Feb-18, which I had a feeling I would find my dress. Woohoooooo and I said YES to my dress!!! What differentiates Winnie Couture from other bridal salons is that Winnie Couture offers their customers customization of the dress and custom sizing for an additional fee if interested. I ended up updating my dress from a strapped dress to a strapless dress. In addition, because I am only 5'4" and was not planning on wearing crazy 4 inch heels, I requested the dress to be made at custom length. I love the customization flexibility. Once again, thank you to Lindsey and the rest of the Winnie Couture team for making my bridal dress shopping memorable and amazing!! I would highly recommend this bridal salon!

The dresses are gorgeous, and they have so many different styles. The store itself is so cute and felt quite relaxing, which is important because dress shopping can be stressful. This was probably the 10th store I went to (embarrassing, I know) and I finally found my dress here. I would definitely recommend this store to any bride-to-be.

n as a bride. They even had a Black Friday Sale! I’d recommend this shop to everyone!

. The store is pristine, filled with beautiful dresses, and smells amazing. The staff is so sweet and helpful and will accommodate any want or need. With help from Amanda, I found the most gorgeous dress that she custom fit to my body and I even got a discount because it was over a holiday weekend. I have been back multiple times for various things and the staff was always welcoming and helpful (side note: they have great hours!). Closer to my wedding date, I wanted to get the dress altered at John's next door and Winnie Couture even assisted in that too! Out of all of my wedding vendors, Winnie Couture was one of my absolute favorites. I highly recommend it and guarantee they have the perfect dress for every shape, style, and size imaginable!

t! I am in the servicing business myself and aside from GREAT quality in dresses their wonderful customer service is really why I’m writing this. The girls are so patient kind and really interested in what you have to say. I felt I was listened to and even when it came to the smallest details!Samantha and her her co workers ( I can’t remember the name of the other girl: blonde, spoke Spanish) they did a great job with helping me choose my dress! I never write reviews but really this place really did it for me. Thank you so much ladies ! Y’all made my wedding dress shopping a great experience! ❤️

his was my first store visiting, Samantha made me very comfortable and helped me figure out what style and silhouette I liked. Once I put on my dress I immediately knew that it was the one. My family had some favorites and of course they were a little opinionated but Samantha helped and chimed in when I found "The one"! I did not purchase the dress immediately as I had another appointment later that afternoon. The girls weren't pushy and didn't pressure me into purchasing the dress immediately. They understood that I was going to look elsewhere and respected my wishes. Needless to say, the second store I visited was totally opposite. I felt very pressured and the dresses didn't compare at all to those of Winnie Couture. After my visit I immediately called Samantha to let her know that I was coming back to purchase the dress. Upon my arrival she had my dress hung up with a "I said Yes to the Dress" sign. The icing on top of the cake! I had the best experience with Winnie and would recommend this beautiful boutique to anyone. Thank you sooooo much Samantha. You are a wonderful stylist and such a sweetheart. I can't wait for my final fitting!

a decision. I was a very indecisive bride and needed a lot of help. Lindsey at Winnie made me feel very comfortable and helped me throughout my shopping journey. She helped me figure out a way to create the best of both worlds with a dress and skirt combo. My dress for the ceremony had a skirt that clipped on and was able to be removed for the reception for a more casual/fun look. Guests thought I had two different dresses. I spent more money than I would have liked on my wedding dress but it was very pretty. I would encourage brides to shop early and not feel like you can’t shop around. I was ultimately happy with what I purchased but did have some guilt for the price tag being higher than what I would have wanted. I received tons of comments about how beautiful the dress was. Winnie Couture Houston is a very clean, nice shop so it creates that special atmosphere. I can’t thank Lindsey and her team enough for being so patient and accommodating!

d but as soon as I walked into Winnie, everything did a complete 180 turnaround and it was like the red carpet was rolled out for my girls and I! Not only is the shop beautiful and sparkly but we were greeted with champagne, big smiles and hugs, AND we were the only appointment so we had the entire shop to ourselves! Lindsey was my consultant and she made sure my experience was the Cinderella moment every bride dreams of having when shopping for their wedding dress. She is extremely customer service focused but she is also the sweetest and most sincere person ever! She told me to grab any dress in the shop that I wanted to try on so I was like a kid in a satin, lace, and crystal candy store. "The dress" ended up being the first dress I tried on that one of my bridesmaid's actually picked out for me after she saw it in the window and I was reluctant to even try on, I had THE moment when I walked out in the dress (totally shocked how in love with the dress I was) and everyone cried, then Lindsey helped me try on all the other dresses without rushing me or any pressure what so ever. I put back on the first dress and she helped me get "jacked up" with a veil and shoes, I looked at Lindsey and asked her what she thought and she said very sweetly "The smile you have on your face in this dress says everything". So of course, I said yes to the dress and we all toasted with a glass of champagne. Every dress at Winnie is customizable so Lindsey helped me customize my dress by adding cap sleeves and extra length so I had a one of a kind dress. You can also order your dress to your exact measurements so that takes out any alterations if you go this route. I bought my dress end of May and my wedding was in November so had to rush my order but my dress ended up arriving a month early and it was even more STUNNING then when I first tried it on. Lindsey answered any questions I had even after I purchased my dress, text me updates throughout the entire process and she even text me a heartfelt message on my wedding day! She truly went above and beyond to make me feel super special, I'm grateful for all her assistance and kindness which helped make my wedding day absolute perfection. Oh and someone I met after I purchased my dress had just gotten engaged so I told her to go to Winnie/Lindsey and she ended up buying her dress there too and guess what, I received a surprise $100 check in the mail from Winnie Couture for the referral I sent them! Not gonna lie, after the wedding my new husband may have come home from work and caught me sitting on the couch in my Winnie wedding dress a few times. ;-)

nd "the dress" we had champagne and celebrated!

next day, still liked the dress, and decided to buy it. I purchased the dress and signed their form saying all sales are final, no returns or exchanges. When I reviewed the form later that day I noticed they had charged me $40 more for the dress than we had discussed the day before, which is not that much money given the total price of the dress was $2500, but it should have been a clue as to what lay ahead. The next day the salon began calling and harassing me 3 or 4 times a day, telling me I owed them even MORE MONEY! Apparently they made the mistake of not charging me sales tax. I spoke with the store manager Samantha who did not apologize for the mistake, but instead accused me of stealing from the company and threatening to send me to collections for not paying the sales tax. She then told me she was just going to charge my card, and I told her she was not authorized to do that, and she threatened to charge it anyway! This is completely illegal! There was no apology for the mistake they had made in regard to charging more for the dress than we agreed upon, OR for their mistake in forgetting to add the sales tax and creating this situation in the first place. There were nothing but accusations and threats to me over a measly $200, from a nationwide company who sells dresses well over $10,000, and after I had already paid them more than $2500! At the end of the horrible conversation with Samantha I asked if I could return the dress and be done with this horrible company, and she said "NO! ALL SALES ARE FINAL AND THERE ARE NO REFUNDS OR EXCHANGES". If all sales are final, why in the world are you calling me, harassing me, and telling me I owe you more money?? Bottom line is these people are awful and are going to squeeze every penny out of you they can with their threatening tactics. If they had been the least bit apologetic about their multiple mistakes, and willing to hear my side of the story I probably would have just paid them for the mistake THEY made, but Samantha was nothing but rude and accusatory. Don't waste your time or money here the customer service is beyond awful.

tion to me and being short person that was important. because how the dress looks like on the model it looked like that on me. When I booked my appointment and had my try-on it was ONLY me. no one else. it made the moment special. and I had Lindsey's help 100%...also i went to other bridal shops. and everything was uncomfortable and itchy. my dress is so lightweight and the bra and everything is built into the dress so i don't have to worry about anything shifting and moving. GO HERE! you get 15% off for buying the dress that day. I recommend just taking your mom and sister or best friend. keep the group small. so that you pick what YOU want.

a bride, I would highly recommend getting alterations at their recommended place; this is imperative because their alteration store knows THEIR dresses unlike any other shop. These girl really know their stuff.

onderful, but the end kind of took the joy out of it. The Good: -The boutique is beautiful -Connie, my stylist, was warm and helpful and very knowledgeable The Bad: -the first isn't so much a "bad", but I was trying to stay under $2K, and they don't have much in that budget range. I went during a sample sale, so they steered me towards the samples, which I understand. -The samples available for sale, though they were up to 60% off, were in awful condition. There were stains on the bottom of the dresses, make up and yellowing on the inside top of the dresses, rips in the lace, etc -HIGH PRESSURE SALES TACTICS TO CLOSE THE DEAL I found a dress I really liked. They offer a 20% discount if you buy on the first visit. Since the sample was not in great condition, we talked about ordering a new one. The dress came in silk or satin. The silk was what I liked, but satin was closer to what I could afford (even with the discount, the satin would come in over $1K over what I wanted to spend). I explained that it was a big purchase and I wasn't comfortable buying right then not having shopped anywhere else. Connie was sympathetic, but another woman came over--I am not sure if she was the manager or what, but she started out helpful--what is stopping you? Do you want to keep looking to see if there is anything else? I explained I hadn't looked anywhere else and I wasn't comfortable making such an important decision at that point. Out came the high pressure sales techniques--What do you think you will find anywhere else? I don't know what you are waiting for. The 20% discount is only good today, etc. It got very very uncomfortable, and I just wanted to leave. Completely ruined the experience. At the end of the day, I am SO happy I didn't buy here. I ended up shopping another weekend with just my mom, going to about 6 other shops. All were beautiful, kind and not one other place gave me the high pressure sales deal. AND I found 2 other dresses in 2 shops I decided between that were similar in style, but 1. within my budget 2. better made (both were real silk, and one was hand crafted) 3. i liked the details better on both of them I recommend visiting them last so you can take advantage of the incentive 20% off, without feeling you haven't been anywhere else and have shopped enough other dresses to know what is out there and what you want. If you find your dress here, congratulations and that is awesome! I think that is great! If you have a bigger budget, they have really pretty dresses. But if you go and have the experience I did, don't cave in to the pressure. It is too big a purchase and decision to feel bullied into it. I promise there are other shops that make you feel as special and beautiful. best of luck to you all!

l in love with it again and again! The service was exceptional! I love the entire team!

ruly unique. I came in with a vision and Winnie Couture made it a reality. The service was top notch and the dress came in ahead of schedule. It fit perfectly and didn't require any alterations! I was amazed! I would recommend this salon to anyone as it was truly a princess experience!!

ery penny! They are not looking to just make a sale, they create a relationship throughout the entire process! I could not imagine getting my gown from anywhere else!

tunning. I actually liked the front of one dress and the back of another - they were able to combine the two! If you're looking for a gorgeous dress that isn't cookie-cutter, make sure to put Winnie Couture on your list!

I ended up picking the second dress I tried on! You can use their website before your appointment and add styles you like to your "my closet" so your stylist can see your preferences. My stylist Danielle was the best! For quality dresses go to Winnie!

. However, the selection was so amazing I quickly found myself picking out dresses I actually wanted. Without even realizing it, I had picked out the gown I would wear. The gown was amazing, as was the staff. The other vendor had been a little rude, and so we were willing to pay the extra money for not only an amazing dress, but for the wonderful treatment we received while shopping!

g to come back to bite them big time one day. I, like most people, found a beautiful dress at Winnie. But I also felt very pressured to buy. This was only the second salon I visited. My consultant, Gina, was pushy. Long story short, I ended up buying. I had a freakout moment after because I just felt maybe I should have taken more time. I finally got past that, which didn't help anyway consider what's happened since. When my dress came there were many problems. First, it was way too tight. Gina measured me and mentioned I was almost exactly a standard size. Little did I know how exact that was. I couldn't sit AT ALL in my dress. Other workers in the salon tried to give me advice to shimmy the dress up - not getting the fact that it was literally about to burst at the seams, thank you very much. Luckily, the dress does have some "give" built in and that's something the tailor (the one they recommend to everyone) is helping fix. What CANNOT be fixed is that Gina recommended I get the hollow-to-hem alteration since I am short, which I agreed would be good. She DID NOT explain that this would have various effects to the torso area, which has beaded detailing at the neckline and then at the waist (with space in between the two areas of detail). Forgive me for not buying a wedding dress every day, but all she said is it would help make the dress the right length so that I wouldn't need to hem it when it came. Well, the result was that the beading on the neckline now touches the beading at the waist, and the fit on my upper body is much different. The tailor (that they recommended) told me he can't change these things. When I complained to the manager of the Winnie store, I get the standard response that nothing was done "incorrectly" per the contract and that any of these issues are just "personal preference". And, I was told that these things changed because the size I tried on was too large and of course it will be different in my actual size. First, yes, I would prefer my dress to fit and look like it did when I tried the sample, isn't that what they're for? Second, I would imagine that the MODEL online with the same dress is wearing the correct size, and hers also looks like the original I tried on in-store, so something clearly is unintentionally different about the one I received. I have not seen Gina since I got my dress, and the manager that I have been working with since is sweet, but not helpful at all. She offered to go to the tailor to talk to him about changing the beading issue by removing some beading at the top, but that's not a solution to get to the original style - it's a compromise to mimic it. I've learned the "personal preference" bit is common throughout all Winnie stores. I am starting to wonder if my hollow to hem may just not have been measured correctly and truly is a mistake. Either way, I have tried emailing corporate and posting to FB and Twitter with no response anywhere (but they sure do keep up with their advertising on the same sites). So now I am posting reviews everywhere I can in order to make a point that when something comes in different than what is presented to the customer, it is NOT acceptable practice. DO NOT BUY HERE!

e best compared to other salons we went to but I fell in love with the dress.

lry and veil there as well which was so nice. I worked with Lauren and she was so sweet and helpful. I recommend looking for dresses here!
