Brides of America

At the moment I knew I was getting married the first thing that crossed my mind was the dress. Off course I thought of big stores, and when I went there they have no customer service, I had to look for dress and at the end it was frustrating. When I stepped into Brides of america there was someone there to guide me to find the perfect dress. I even got my bm's dresses all in one place with great service. My wedding was last Saturday and everyone was impressed with my dress, just what I wanted. Ladies remember you only get married once ( at least that is what I want ) so the dress has to be just like you ....... GORGEOUS :)

Brides of America is one of the few places that I can say I was always treated with such great service, since the moment you enter the store to the moment you exit I was treated like a special bride; but it's not only me, I could see how different brides seemed so happy of being offered such excellent service. I'm greatfull I found them, and trust me I'll keep referring more brides and bridemaids to this awsome place because honestly the service is amazing. Thank you Brides of America for such excellent service!!You guys are the best!!

Awesome Peopleby Pinkchucks141 at CitysearchI arrived to Brides of America looking for one bridesmaid dress. I ended up buying my wedding dress, five bridesmaid dresses, the flower girls dress and my mom bought 2 dresses! I went with one of my bridesmaids to order her dress, while she did that I looked through the wedding dresses aisle and I just saw this beautiful dress! David, the owner, saw my face and asked if i wanted to try it on, I was surprised I did not need an appointment as most places you do. That same day I bought that dress! Great price and great customer service. David really knows what he is doing and gives recommendations of what fits you best. You do not feel pressured to purchase which is VERY different than other places.I would buy in his store FOREVER If it was an option! jejejeVery personalized service which is something you do not see anymore. Pros: personalized service, different dresses Cons: website

I love my dress! The people at the shop were very kind and helpful. Best of all they were not pushy and gave me the time I needed to decide on a dress! They never made me feel pressured or rushed. I would recommend them to anyone

just have to write and say that David from Brides of America was heaven sent. I hate to read that some people had a bad experience. I dont know how because I worked with David and his amazing seamstress for my mothers dress, my matrons dress and my dress and me and my family have nothing but great things to say. As soon as I walked in, he was happy, helpful and so genuinely sweet. I shopped around at other bridal stores and didnt receive the level of service I got there. They worked there behinds off to cater to my revisions for a dress I saw. The seamstress did it in a couple of days and I was just blown away! Price, Service, Quality...Really, it doesnt get any better than David at Brides of America. Sorry Im writing so much I just had to tell everyone how great they really were to us. This is for real, I didnt get paid or anything to write this, I am a real customer that is really happy with my experience. You will be too!

Brides of America provided me with, an amazing dress, I recommend them to anyone with any budget because this place has everything. I loved my dress and i received many compliments.

Great find in Brides of America! You would never guess such a nice bridal shop existed in this area! Great service and attnetion to detail--- look for their sample sales!! Great bargains!!

I got my bridesmaids dresses at Brides of America. They have a huge selection of dresses at great prices. The dresses arrived as promised, and they were beautiful. David was a pleasure to work with. He was very responsive to all my questions, he returned phone calls, etc. etc. I recommend this place to anyone!

This place was very professional they were also impressed that they worked with your budget. They worked with me and let me know in advance when my dress was going to be there so that i could schedule an appointment. They offered amenities for waiting family. I even fell in love with some invitations there and they stayed after hours to help me with them. The day before the wedding i noticed a small mistake on my dress that was caused by a confusion and they saw me first thing in the morning and even gave me a free guest-sign in book because of the incoveneince. I was so pleased with them that i bought my flower girl basket and a candelabra from them. They were great! AND AMAZING PRICE!

They have prices that will fit any and every budget. All colors are available and they are will in to work woth you and provide you with discounts for your bridal party.And extra % off accessories.

YES!! YES!! YES!! From the moment I walked in, I loved it. I went looking for wedding dresses in dozens of places, from David's to warehouses to Coral Gables boutiques on Miracle Mile. At Brides of america I didn't feel like I'm viewed as a walking wallet, I was able to take my time to look around and when I asked for assistance, the staff listend to what I wanted and didn't try to shove me anything else which didn't match my request.The seamstress on-site is highly professional and practically sewed a whole new dress for me (added sleaves instead of the sphagetti straps, sewed down a mid-thigh slit, waist in, bust up - you name it) at a very reasonable price. The dress itself, to my amazement, cost less than $250 (!!) before alterations (which were aprox. $50). YES, YOU CAN FIND THE DRESS OF YOUR DREAMS WITHOUT SPENDING YOUR HOME'S DOWN PAYMENT.

I got a Morilee wedding dress from Brides of America. The dress was beautful and very affordable with all the discounts that I received. My dress was late, which was why I didn't give them 5/5, but David (owner) was very persistent at getting my dress off the truck at the factory. He felt so bad that it was late that he gave me another discount. The seamstress, her name escapes me, was wonderful at rushing the alterations for me. She was also very affordable, alterations and bustle for $200 flat rate. Although she does not speak a word of English, she understood my broken Spanish and hand gestures to make the dress just right.

Brides must check out the dresses at this store.There is something for everyone on any type of budget.

My dress was beautiful and inexpensive, but not cheap. They were very friendly.

The boutique is comfortable and has a wide range of selections. I came to the store knowing exactly what I wanted. I came out from the store with the gown just as I wanted. The price was reasonable and couldn't ask for a better service. I really love my gown!!

if you are looking to rent the dress this is not the place to go, and they charge you and arm and a leg to do alterations. But if you want to buy they have a lot of variety and styles of dresses.

I bought my bridesmaids dresses here and was thrilled with the place at first. When one of my BMs and I walked in (without an appointment), the owner David was great. Unlike the other shops we had visited that day, he gave us all his attention and started pulling all kinds of dresses for us as soon as he got a brief description of what I wanted. I had five bridesmaids all with VERY different body types. One was tall, a couple were short, one was pear shaped, and one was stick thin. Some had big chests, others didn't and David managed to find a dress that looked amazing on all of them (no small feat)! However, once we had decided on the dress and to purchase them from Brides of America, things went downhill. The challenge was that my BMs were all over the country. I asked David if it was going to be ok to ship the dresses out to the girls. He assured me it wouldn't be a problem so we proceeded with the order. Each girl called in with her measurements and they ordered the appropriate sizes for them. He told us it would take three months to get the dresses in but it ended up taking closer to 8!! Luckily I had purchased the dresses in plenty of time so I was annoyed but not worried. When the dresses finally arrived, they didn't arrive all together. One was supposedly stuck in customs while the others made it through. They were all shipped to a warehouse in Boca and he would only go up there once a week, if that. In fact, one week he "forgot" to go up there and my dresses sat in the warehouse for an extra week. Once the dresses were in the Miami store, the BMs were supposed to call with their addresses and pay the shipping fee ($20). They all did so promptly but he took another two to three weeks to send them out. After several un-returned calls, I wrote an e-mail and got an immediate response. Come to find out he had the dresses hanging on the back of his door and had again forgotten to send them out. So, at this point, 4 of the 5 BMs have their dresses and it is about six weeks before the wedding. The final dress is still missing and my BM calls and calls and calls and never gets a response. There is even a message on the store answering machine that goes through a whole spiel before saying "Please don't leave a message on this machine." FINALLY, my BM is able to get a hold of David. He plays dumb, blames the error on the manufacturer, and promises to order her another dress, rushed, and have it shipped directly to her. He tells her she will probably receive two dresses and she has to send the other one back so that she isn't charged twice. Three weeks before the wedding, the dress finally arrives crumpled in a ball in a UPS box. She NEVER received two dresses. I am convinced they never ordered her dress to begin with and then tried to cover up their mistake at the last minute. I can honestly say I was in touch with them on a regular basis regarding the status of the dresses. I even went IN to the store once because I wasn't getting any responses to my e-mails or phone calls. On this particular day, David is there and he tells me that running this shop is his HOBBY and he likes to do things his own way (i.e. he is not interested in listening to me tell him that the dress still hasn't arrived 4 weeks before the wedding). I was very turned off by him telling me that this was his hobby. That insinuated to me that his clients weren't all that important to him, he just wanted to have some fun selling dresses. On a more positive note, David was always super nice to me no matter what. He was wonderful the day we picked out the dresses and EVERYONE at the wedding complimented my BM dress choice. In fact, many people said they have never seen more beautiful dresses and acknowledged the challenge of fitting 5 totally different girls in the same dress. So in terms of capability, David is an expert.I would not recommend this store to any brides who are not eternally patient or to those who have a short time frame to work with. If you want to purchase your BM dresses a year in advance and are willing to sacrifice service for an amazing eye for fashion, then by all means, go to this store. The end result was great but I'm not sure if I would pick this place if I had to do it all over again.
