I definitely want to recommend Brides and Tailor to every plus size bride or any bride who is looking for a beautiful wedding dress. As a plus size bride myself, I found it very hard to find myself a good fitting gown at the local stores. Custom-made wedding dresses prices were too expensive, and thank God I came across this dress customization business in time! Their sales team is fantastic, answer emails and messages on time, and they made sure they sent me pictures of my wedding dress before shipping it to me. I was a very happy bride!

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 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

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

I had sent her 3 separate dresses and asked her to combine them all into my dream dress.. but in black! I never had luck finding a black dress that looked bridal... until I met Manal! She put together exactly what I was imagining in my head and it’s made perfectly! She was super sweet, helpful, and very responsive. She made the fear of ordering a wedding dress online completely disappear. The turnaround was insanely fast as well. Prices were extremely reasonable given you’re getting a handmade, one of a kind custom dress. I couldn’t be happier with the quality of the customer service and dress I received. I will definitely be recommending Brides and Tailor to everyone looking for a wedding dress! I will update the review with pictures once I say I do!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
