"The Dressing Room was my first bridal dress experience. Before my appointment I had a good idea of the type of dress I wanted but I still wasn't quite sure what I was going to end up with. I did not want to go to a chain bridal store, I wanted a more personal experience. Out of the two shops I contacted, The Dressing Room was very helpful and got me in quickly. The other store didn't call me back or return my email and I am so glad that they didn't because my experience at TDR was so positive and fun and I was happy to shop at place where your time DOES matter. They helped guide me in the right direction without overwhelming me and they listened to all of my feedback when finding "the dress." These ladies rock!!"

"Personal and easy experience The Dressing Room in Celebration was my first bridal appointment and the only one I needed. Stephanie was amazing! Once I showed her the look I was going for she pulled both specific dresses I requested and one I would not have thought of but fell in love with. She made me feel comfortable and had fun with my family as we were facetiming my grandmother with each dress. Her process for narrowing down the dresses helped me not get lost in just playing dress up. She listened to everything I said about each dress, making me feel comfortable with my body, and helped me hone in on what I really wanted. I had such a fun time and cannot wait for my dress to come in. I cannot recommend this place enough."

"I was CONVINCED I couldn't find the dress of my dreams within my budget ($2k), because I had gone to two boutiques prior and every ballgown was crossing pass that threshold. My budget could have been half of what it was and the team would have found me the dress. They are dedicated to a range of dresses, and making sure we have fun, feel confident, and find the dress. BUT there is no pressure to leave with one. When I was feeling hopeless at one point during the appointment, there was never any fake natured "but you look so good!" They prioritize how you feel about it, then give their thoughts. Couldn't recommend more. Support this store, buy your dress here (or at least go look :)."

"I’m so happy I decided to check out The Dressing Room for my wedding. Jenna and Sam were absolutely amazing and I cannot say enough great things about them. I went in with a vision of what I wanted and said yes to a dress that was the complete opposite. I really liked how Jenna & Sam influenced me to try on dresses that I wouldn’t have otherwise looked at. Keep an open mind and remember to have fun! It’s not everyday that you can play dress up with pretty gowns."

"I had a wonderful time at The Dressing Room. I was so particular about what I wanted and had an idea in my minds eye about it but I wasn't completely sure. With the help of the staff member we picked out about 10 dresses. Every one that I tried on she asked me what I liked and what I didn't like. After about 4 maybe 5 dresses she had listened and she told me there was a very unique dress in the shop that she had a feeling I would love. I told her to grab it and I tried it on and I sobbed. I didn't cry, I sobbed. This was the dress I was picturing since I was little. NOT A DRY EYE IN THE SHOP! It was perfect. They listened and found my dream dress and it was in my budget! I will always recommend them and remember that day!"

"Tiffany was incredible. She got dresses that I asked for, but also got me to step out of my comfort zone and tried some things I unexpectedly loved. She respected my budget and checked prices before having me try on a dress. She was great with my whole group and made the experience fun for everyone. I had 4 other appointments set for after the one with her and cancelled all of them after finding my dress at my first try on. Cannot recommend this place enough!"

"The easiest, best bridal salon experience I had This place is hands-down the best! It was the 3rd place I went and if it had been the first I never would've gone elsewhere. Grace was amazing, I told her my vibe I was going for and she pulled so many beautiful dresses for me! She definitely understood what I was looking for, she really listened to my opinions on what I liked and didn't. She was amazing. I ended up finding my dress! I almost passed it up because it wasn't entirely what I wanted and she helped me adjust it and helped me make it exactly what I was looking for! All that was missing was some off the shoulder sleeves, and a belt! She knew it needed a belt before I even knew what was missing and the one she picked matched perfectly! And adding some off the shoulder sleeves is an easy addition, I can't wait to wear it."

"Amazing Experience! I had such an amazing experience this past Saturday with my bridesmaids at The Dressing Room, St. Pete! I came into the shop for a specific dress but the consultants were able to catch on quickly what I liked, what I did not like, and ultimately lead me in the right direction. I literally cried when I put on my dress (and I did say YES TO THE DRESS!) and so did my bridesmaids. It was PERFECT! And the entire experience was very low stress, fun, and really dynamic! THANK YOU SO MUCH TO THE DRESSING ROOM!"

"I had my first dress shopping experience yesterday at The Dressing Room - ST. Pete and it was more than I could of ever asked for. The girl that helped us, Sam, greeted us at the door and got an idea of what my event was going to be like and what kind of dresses I was looking for. We went inside and instantly started trying on dresses. There’s been one dress that I have been obsessing over for the last year.. that’s what made me choose this store, they carry the designer I wanted, Eddy K (absolutely beautiful dresses). I saw my dream dress waiting for me in the dressing room and that was the first one I tried. When they say you will know when you find the right dress they are 100% correct. Everyone cried it was more beautiful than I expected it to be. Even knowing that I had found the one within the first 5 minutes of my appointment, we tried on more. Sam was so helpful and had great suggestions, she even tried to find a dress that would exceed my dream dress and there was no way that was possible. After putting my dream dress back on for the second time and going through a handful of tissues for the second time, I said yes to the dress! I highly recommend this store it is adorable, quiet and not overwhelming. Everyone we dealt with had such a great attitude and was super helpful. I can’t wait to go back for my fitting and alterations. Thank you to The Dressing Room and Sam for helping me get my dream dress."

"Let me say, the atmosphere was warm and inviting but the real highlight was Sarah. She felt immediately like a long lost friend. She seemed invested in my “love story” and asked me questions about my venue, my future husband, my friends and my life. She looked at my Pinterest board and took suggestions from my friends to pull amazing gowns. I was stuck between two and she ran off and picked up one last dress. She described it as if it was the baby between the two…. Boy, was she right!! She nailed it! I had anxiety about making a big purchase, she did not pressure me to buy and offered that I made another appointment to try it on again. I’ll be purchasing the dress from here! I had gone to one appointment at another location before Sarah and one after. Hands down, Sarah is the best. It was important for me to feel connected to someone during this process. She is amazing. She is such a gem in your store!."

"Seriously out of all of the places I searched for my wedding dress, this one was by far the best experience. You get the entire shop to yourself and their prices are the same as what I found at David’s Bridal but the quality was 10X better."

"We had a wonderful experience picking out my wedding gown at the Dressing Room. I brought both of my parents and we really enjoyed having the store to ourselves to look around and choose dresses. When I selected my dress the experience was very personal and special as I had always hoped it would be. I am so pleased to have found the Dressing Room and my beautiful dress."

"If you would like a personal experience without all the hustle and bustle of the bigger stores, this is the place for you. They are very professional and only showed me dresses that fit the description they were given. The best thing is that they have dresses that fit most budgets. The price I paid was more than reasonable.."
