I absolutely recommend Trace of lace. Christine and her Staff were absolutely fantastic and made my wedding dress shopping a very good experience and stress free. My mom, mother inlaw to be, my grandma, sister-in-law and step daughter all felt welcomed and when I found the dress i felt all the emotions and new it was the one there wasn't a dry eye in the room. I would highly recommend setting up an appointment you won't be disappointed

Absolutely AMAZING!! I am not a shopper so I was worried about trying on dresses but when I got there they were so nice and helpful! I went in very open minded about everything and said I would try anything on that was within my budget. They kept bringing me dresses, some that I loved and some that I did not love so much. I felt like I was family there! When I fell in love with my dress so did they! Love Love Love them!!

Trace of Lace was the first shop where I started the search for my 'perfect dress.' Upon entering I was greeted by three extremely friendly and professional sales associates. My consultant (Erin) assisted me in looking for dresses, offered suggestions, and let me try on all the dresses I wanted to with no time frame or pushy sales techniques. The staff took down my information and dresses I was interested in so that I could continue my search and knew my information was logged in case I wanted to buy the dresses of interest. My friends and family were also treated with respect, and made sure they were comfortable by being offered water and snacks. We had a private corner of the salon, and were provided all the support we could ask for. After looking in to other dress shops, I was convinced that I would only buy from Trace of Lace. I want to say THANK YOU to their staff for all their help.

My experience at Trace of Lace was by far the best of the 6 bridal salons I visited. I felt welcomed and valued from the moment I stepped into the store until we were all finished. Ann was so helpful. She really paid attention to my likes and dislikes and provided great advice on all aspects of my attire. Trace of Lace carries a large variety of styles and sizes, which is ideal for indecisive brides such as myself. :) I would (and do!) highly recommend it.

This was my first time shopping at A Trace of Lace, located in Rutland, Vermont. I'm definitely happy that I went. I walked in with a specific idea of my dress and they worked very well with me. I ended up choosing something that wasn't what I started out looking for..but knew it was THE dress--a Pnina Tornai design at that! They are very reasonably priced as well. The ladies there are lovely. I will be going back for my bridesmades dresses!

I came in with a VERY tight dress budget. I figured I should at least look at the clearance/discontinued section, but honestly didn't expect to find anything in my price range. The owner was so helpful! She did show my her least expensive dresses in clearance, but then suggested I look at bridesmaid dresses. She said that she had worked with other girls on a tight budget and found them long, ivory or white bridesmaid dresses that you would never know weren't true bridal gowns. I found a few options that I liked, but then the owner (who picked up on my style immediately) came up with one more dress that I had missed. It was the one! It is a beautiful a-line gown that laces up in back. So simple and elegant! I now have my designer dress which makes me feel like a princess for my wedding... And under $200!! I think that the owner of A Trace of Lace is my new fairy god mother. I couldn't be happier!

I can't say enough good things about this bridal salon! Elaine and Erin were absolutely amazing! I had a large party with me, and they graciously and easily provided a comfortable space for all of us. The gown selection is amazing, and the staff really listened to what I was looking for while also helping to provide suggestions of other styles I might like. In fact, the gown I chose was nothing like the idea I had in my mind when I went in, and I'm very happy that I kept an open mind and that the staff does such a fabulous job picking dresses they know will look amazing on you! Once my gown and veil had been chosen, they were more than happy to start pulling bridesmaid dresses for us to look at as well! We were there for three hours, had a fabulous time, and picked out the gowns for me and all of my bridesmaids at the same time! This was not such an easy task, as we had to find a dress to flatter several different body types, but Elaine and Erin were able to work magic! I still... Read more can't believe we got all of our dresses! Their customer service is just outstanding. They are highly professional while still providing a relaxed and fun atmosphere. We were even able to Skype with one of the bridesmaids in Peru so she could also be involved, and when another bridesmaid wasn't feeling quite right, Elaine ran across the street and bought her a cup of coffee! I recommend that any bride beginning her dress shopping journey make this your first and only stop! Beautiful gowns at great prices and excellent customer service! I'll most likely be making another trip to pick out mother's dresses, because after this experience, I can't imagine going anywhere else!

The space is very bright and open with lots of seating available. My fiancé and I are eloping to GA in a year, so since my family isn't going to be there it was really important to me that they help me pick out my dress. I went in looking for a specific dress, which they had, and they were great at listening to what I liked/disliked about the dresses I tried on. As I went through the first three, another woman was looking through the racks with my specific taste in mind. I ended up with a dress that all four of my family members love. When we were a little confused about the size dress to order (measurements were all over the place!), another consultant in the salon found a dress with a similar silhouette by the same designer for me to try on in the size I wanted to order. Very professional and flexible with all the things I was asking for.

I had a really good experience here when I went to buy my wedding dress. Everyone was very helpful and nice, which was awesome because I felt like I had no clue what I was doing. They helped me figure out what I liked and what looked good on me and had no issues with us bringing a fairly large group of girls to help me out. The one issue I had was that I wanted a less expensive dress and so bought one of the ones off the rack that they assured me could be fitted to me. When I went to the seamstress she said there was no way, and I ended up having to go back and order a completely different dress in my size. Even though the staff was helpful and the return of my first dress wasn't a problem, it was still wasted time and hassle I wouldn't have had to go through if the staff at Trace of Lace knew how far a dress could be altered. Despite all this I still liked them enough that I went back to get my senior bridesmaids dresses there as well. Once again the staff was very helpful trying t...
