This place was on my must have to check out verse the NYC places that I've gone to a million times..Any plus size bride wants to try on any dress and see what it "really " looks like verse a dress too small that you have to envision that will fit. I'm an older mid 40"s first time bride who has been in a million weddings and I told Michelle to get something different. Well she did and every dress lookes better than the next and the best part is they all fit. What a confidence booster for a plus size bride. She picked a wild card dress that i would have never ever picked and due to her expertise that was the one. During that moment i got upset not about the dress but my parents had passed and I was a daddy's girl and she let me step into the dressing room to take some time to call me brother and get the final stamp of approval from our parents above. This is not just a store with people who work there but a family of staff who are their with their brides threw the tears of happiness and ... Read moresadness. If you are plus size check them out go with an open mind and let them guide you to your dream dress.

The CB Team provided a positively unforgettable wedding dress experience for me and my family this weekend. I was honestly dreading this part of the wedding process for many reasons (also hello, Quarantine 15) but the minute I walked into the boutique my stress melted away. They’re a small local business with an important mission for plus size women, but they go the extra mile to making you feel welcome and safe; their attention to safety precautions in the age of COVID and an immaculate shopping space made us feel comfortable and respected... it even just SMELLED amazing! Their commitment to inclusivity allowed me to try on anything in the store, and I was never made to feel inadequate because of my shape. They take the time to build relationships with their clients which is enough to celebrate, let alone their generosity of spirit. If anyone asks me, this is the only place to go for bridal appointments! The consultant, Maryanne, and the owner, Michelle, will not only provide unwave... Read morering and outstanding professional support as you shop, but they will become your fast friends. They not only remained my professional confidants throughout the process, but the relationship we’ve built is reflected in the care they’ve taken with us. Their patience and overwhelming generosity in providing extra time and financial relief where they could is so appreciated. I’m grateful for all that they do. I am beaming whenever I think of this day. The wedding dress “yes” is such a special moment for many, and I will never forget mine with Curvy Bride. I’m not only looking forward to seeing my dress again when it arrives, but also these lovely women!

Curvy Bride is a wonderful salon! I had many people with me and they were happy to accommodate my large group! Michelle, the consultant, was fabulous, kind and understanding! Michelle listened to me intently with every dress and when she brought in this dress that had things about it that I know I told her I did not like, but I trusted her and it ended up being the dress I said YES too!! After we left, I got concerned about the size we ordered, messaged the salon on Instagram (they were closed) and the owner promptly answered. I spoke with Michelle, the owner, the following day and she eased all my concerns completely! This was the best experience my group and I encountered during our bridal dress shopping!

I can’t explain to you the joy this store brought to my heart! I was having so much anxiety due to bad experiences at other shops. Actually, I was convinced I would never find a dress that would make me feel beautiful or fit my budget. Well here I found BOTH. . Infact I was stuck between 2 dresses because I loved them both so much. The sales associate P & the owner Michele were such a pleasure to work with. I didn’t feel rushed or like I was being upsold. The dresses here are absolutely gorgeous (as is the location itself) This was exactly the bridal experience every woman deserves. And for the record my dress was under 1k and had all the aspects I was looking for (lace, a line, designer) I would drive 3hrs here if I had to. They are AMAZING. You have to visit this place!!!

With two and a half weeks before my wedding I decided to try The Curvy bride as I wasn't happy with a prior online purchase. I came in with a dress in mind to try on, which they pulled, but I welcomed my consultants suggestions. After talking with me she pulled a dress off the rack that fit my body like a glove. Hugged my waist just right. I truly felt like a princess, even with a mask on! I was able to get a fitting appointment the next day, and it all got done in time for my wedding. My dress was breathtaking. I've never felt more beautiful.

Any bride needs to shop here. It doesnt matter if your a size 2,12,22 ... they have a dress that can fit anyone and a great Onsite tailor. Make them a part of your wedding experience

I first went to the Curvy Bride after a few other stores in July of 2019. Everyone was super friendly and welcoming! They accommodate my group of 5 people. My mom got lost and the CB team jumped in and helped her when her GPS failed her - I will forever be thankful for their patience! I tried on probably 10 dresses - and ended up with a dress I fell in love with from Essense of Australia! I loved the little celebration toast at the end of my visit! The dress came in a few months later - I had my first fitting at the end of January which went super well! The 2nd fitting happened 2nd weekend in March which when businesses first started to close for COVID-19 (before the lockdown) - I had a very enjoyable experience - even with all the newness of keeping distance and sanitizing everything. When I had to postpone my wedding - they were extremely helpful and understanding! My fiance and I ended up having a small ceremony on August 1st - so I had my last dress fitting mid-July. They ... Read morehad wonderful protocols in place (limiting the number of people in store, calling when arriving, temperature checks, distancing…); I felt very safe, and they made me feel so welcome and comfortable! The dress fit wonderfully! I was so happy with my experience there, and appreciate their kindness and wonderful business practices!

Paige, the store manger, is fabulous!! She made this such an easy and enjoyable experience for my mother and I. She was attentive and accommodating without being pushy. Based on the pictures I showed her she pulled dresses that I loved. I tried on 5 of them and ended up choosing the second one. The champagne toast at the end was a fitting way to celebrate finding my perfect dress. Paige made sure to take cute pictures of my mom and I holding their cute signs. What could have been a nerve wracking experience was a delightful one instead. I would highly recommend this boutique.

If you don’t go here, you’re doing yourself a disservice. The team is amazing, know what to do, and Lydia- the alterations lady, is literally sent from heaven. Love love love them and recommend them a thousand times over.

I can’t believe that I found my perfect dress at the first store I looked at!! I can’t thank everyone enough at the curvy bride for really making me feel special the entire time I was there, from picking a dress to getting it altered and picking it up. Honestly, dress shopping was what I dreaded most since I figured it would be hard to find plus size dresses. From the moment I stepped foot in this store, I was greeted with smiles and everyone willing to help me find my perfect dress! From the minute I put my dress on, I knew it was the one. I didn’t want to take it off, I couldn’t wait to try it on again during a fitting and I absolutely loved wearing it on my wedding day. Thank you, thank you, thank you everyone at the curvy bride for everything you have done for me, from the bottom of my heart!!! I will never forget how I felt in my dress on my wedding day!

I'm having a short engagement, so my dress shopping day went like: tried on 3 dresses from Azazie at home, thinking I'd be ordering from them cuz of their 4 week turnaround. Tried on 7-8 dresses at David's Bridal, only liked 2 kind of, worried about the 12 week production time. Got to my appointment at The Curvy Bride, talked with Stacy about what I like, my timeline, and my budget, and she suggested I start with the sample sale to both meet timeline and budget needs. I found several dresses that would fit me and interested me in the sample sale, and she helped me try them all. She had great comments on how each fit me, and the quality of each, and was incredibly helpful and kind and understanding! We got through 5 dresses I think, we went to see if there was anything else I wanted to try, I found one more to try, and ultimately ended up leaving the store with the second dress I tried on! It was an amazing experience, Stacy was so helpful and so kind, and was making educated decisions ... Read moreon whether or not to clip the dresses since they were now in the take home immediately section, and I'd highly recommend going to The Curvy Bride!

I went to Curvy Bride for my wedding dress, I knew how great Michelle, the owner, was based on the experience that my sister had there 5 years prior. During my appointment I must have tried on upwards of 10 or more dresses, and the woman helping me was so patient and kind. I ended up ordering a beautiful Essense of Australia gown which I fell in love with. Overall, I had a great experience at Curvy Bride and highly recommend this shop!

I knew I wanted to look for my wedding dress at The Curvy Bride even before I got engaged. The idea that there was a place that catered to plus sized brides was so amazing to me. I booked an appointment to try on dresses exactly a year before my wedding. Paige, my consultant, was amazing. She pulled several dresses I had seen on their website plus a few more she thought would work for my shape. I ended up falling in love with the first dress I tried on and ordered it that day. It arrived in the time frame promised and I started alterations with their in house seamstress, Lydia. She not only made sure the dress fit perfectly and had the appropriate length hem but added an amazing bustle. I was absolutely in love with my wedding dress and I cannot thank The Curvy Bride enough for making me feel beautiful!

It can be hard for heavier people to find the perfect gown. But I had no problem at all here. Not only did I find my dream dress, but their seamstress did an incredible job with the adjustments.
