I loved the experience and the fact that this is different than conventional window shopping for a bridal dress. I hope they would open up a showroom with multiple dresses in the future though so that brides who are too stressed out to buy a wedding dress online can have an alternative.

I was supposed to get married on Halloween (Covid ruining everything), so I didn’t want a traditional white dress and let me tell you it was SO difficult finding a dress I almost gave up the idea of the non-traditional route. But then I found my saving grace, Manal thank you so so much! She paid attention to all the little details I asked for, gave me so many options of fabric colors, lace appliqués, beadings, etc! Also they made me a matching veil for FREE!! Such a sweet little surprise and you can’t beat that for the price! If you are having trouble finding THE dress, look no further and create your own beautiful gown 💕 read less

I was assured that the dress would be made on time (and in fact, it came early!) and that they would do everything in their power to create something beautiful...and wow, is it beautiful! Working with Manal was a breeze and her communication was out of this world. The dress fits like a glove and the details are exquisite. I could not recommend Brides & Tailor enough! read less

I'm a pear shape and she disguised my tummy and snatched my waist. I also wasn't sure about bling so she added a removable belt which was so smart, so that I'm able to wear it over the dress or over the overskirt as I see fit! In stores a custom made dress, drop veil, belt, bolero, and overskirt in my rushed time would have been five times the price. You can't beat it! Communicate the dress of your dreams to Manal and she will build it for what you would have paid for a high end David's Bridal gown. Go to a professional tailor with the info she sends you about measurements and get them to do it. She follows them perfectly and your dress will fit exactly!! Will add photos in March after my leap year wedding, it came today and I'm overwhelmed with how perfect this is. read less

She did it twice as there was not a clear understanding for the first sketch, whether my fault or her fault, she made it right. I ultimately did not have the dress made because I was quoted a higher price for a plus size gown and she stated the higher price was for the extra material. Of course, charging more for a size 18 or 20 because of extra material would make more sense if the sizes 0s, 2s or 4s were given discounts, which I'm sure they aren't. It all evens out. It's just one more burden for a plus size bride. Gowns available for purchase whether a 4 or 24 or even larger all are the same fee. The price for my gown was quoted higher than more intricate gowns on her site. I do love her work and clearly she has beautiful gowns so I am disappointed I was unable to purchase from her. read less

She is the creative mastermind behind all these BEAUTIFUL gowns you see. Her superior expertise and attention to the finest detail can be seen in her works of art. If you’re dreaming of a custom gown but can’t quite conceptualize your idea, Manal will sketch it for you and make sure it fits to compliment your body type. Brides & Tailor is my go-to for reverting couples that are searching for traditional to contemporary styles and everything else in between! read less

I didn’t even want to take it off! The process of ordering a dress online can definitely be scary when you have no idea what it will look like until the end...but the team at brides and tailor made this experience amazing! I told them exactly what I was looking for, sent some pictures and from there they sent me swatches and we were ready to go. They keep you updated through the whole process and you even get to see a picture of the dress before they send you it to make sure it’s what your vision was.
For brides non traditional like myself or traditional..definitely give these wonderful people your business. You will be so happy you do! After literally hundreds of dresses.. I finally found the one!!! read less

To me, what I wanted was so simple but no one made it because it was considered “not traditional.” I looked in my city at custom gowns and they wanted thousands! That’s where brides and tailor came in. They helped put to paper what I had in my mind. They kept me updated throughout the process, kept prices fair and when my dress was delivered this week, I felt pure joy!! Manal was a gem to work with and I will definitely be referring anyone I know getting married to brides and tailor! What a great experience! read less
