The dress was so beautiful and the experience was top notch. Made the day effortless by making the dress the easiest part. Thank you.

My experience has been amazing from the start! Melissa, the owner was so welcoming and made me feel at home. I shared my vision of what I was looking for, she and her staff knew exactly what dress options to show me. I never felt rushed or pressured. Not only are they competitively priced, they have so many selections that I didn't feel the need to look elsewhereI I found the wedding dress of my dreams, I absolutely LOVE my dress. The timeline they gave me was accurate of when the dress would be expected and once they had the actual delivery confirmation they sent it to me by text and kept me posted along the way! Thank you for making this experience so smooth and pleasant, highly recommend!!

I really wanted this to be a good experience and was so sad that it wasn’t. Extra stars because the employees were extremely welcoming and friendly during the appointment which was great. I was told my dress would arrive in June (2.5 months before the wedding) and my dress didn’t come until 4 weeks before my wedding. This would’ve been semi-okay if they at least communicated this to me but they were ignoring my phone calls. I spoke to someone once in June who told me it would be there “next week” and from then on they didn’t answer my calls or emails until I called from a different phone number. My dress also came in 2 sizes too big after all of that. I never once got an apology or anything. Again, the staff is friendly but if you want stress free and to be sized correctly/have times for alterations, I’d pick a different shop!

I can’t say enough positive things about my experience at Bella Bridal. ESPECIALLY with my stylist Taylor. She was INCREDIBLE!! I came to Bella Bridal after a long day of dress shopping. I was tired and to be quite honest, not loving the process. My mood changed the second I started working with Taylor. She made me excited to try on more dresses and understood exactly how I wanted to feel on my wedding day. I picked roughly 10 dresses & Taylor pulled a few for me as well. One of the dresses Taylor pulled for me, I had walked past and didn’t think it was my style. Once Taylor put it on me, I fell in love. It was exactly what I was looking for. Taylor really listens to her clients and it shows. She understood my vision better than I did! She’s so kind and encouraging, not to mention has a fabulous eye for gowns. I came back for a follow up with Taylor as well and had just as great of an experience. She helped me pick a veil and took measurements to place the order for my dream dress! Bella Bridal is a must and I highly recommend asking for Taylor!

I had the best experience with Ashley at Bella Bridal Couture. She was an absolute joy to work with. She treated my family, friends, and I so well. She made me feel gorgeous and picked the beautiful dress I bought and was mindful to stay within my budget. She knew exactly what I wanted 🩷 Thank you again for making this special moment in my life such a happy and memorable one.🤍👰🏻‍♀️

I had the best time working with Sarah at Bella Bridal Couture. She was super fun and reassuring throughout the whole process. I don’t usually feel comfortable picking out dresses (or feeling girly in general most of the time), but I felt comfortable with her. I could easily be honest with how I felt about one dress or another. She helped me find a dress that I absolutely loved and felt confident in. I didn’t feel limited in my selections, and she even reassured me that I could request custom changes to the dress I selected. I don’t think I could have had a better wedding dress selection experience.

Had an absolutely amazing experience searching for my dress at Bella Bridal! Taylor was a gem and pulled some amazing dresses that I would not have tried on myself but ended up loving. They had a wide variety of dresses for all styles and the gals there were so warm and welcoming :) I said yes to the dress here!!

This was my first bridal shopping appt with a group, and although I didn't end up buying from this shop, I really enjoyed the experience. I made the appt with an open mind, with the purpose of getting a feel for what I actually wanted in a dress. The shop was a little smaller than some others I'd seen, but it had imo the perfect amount of variety and was not overwhelming. The way they had you pick dresses was simplified and easier than my other appt where you had to shove and pull dresses yourself. The stylist and staff was very professional and helpful, got me in and out of dresses fast and handled my crazy group with ease lol. They were very honest and upfront about costs, alterations etc. I think my only frustration was that most of the sample dress sizes were so large they just didn't look right pinned, but I understand why they were ike that. I ended up going with an antique dress elsewhere, but Bella Bridal hosted a core memory day for me and my girls I will never forget, and helped me figure out the bride I envisioned! Will definitely be recommending to my local friends there. Thank you guys 🙏

Sarah was AMAZING. This was my first time trying on gowns and I had no idea what to expect. She made the process so simple and easy for my mom and I. When I gave her ideas and feedback about what I did and didn't like about dresses, she knew what to try next. Dress #5 was THE one and she made the process of saying "yes" so easy. Thank you Sarah for helping me find the perfect dress!

My experience at Bella Bridal Couture was beyond amazing! Sarah was the woman who assisted me and she had the best attitude and is perfect at her job. She made me feel so important/gushed over, listened to all of my wants/needs, and respected my budget. She gave honest feedback which I very much valued and helped me say yes to my dress. I cannot express how wonderful she was as well as the dress choices in the store. I would recommend this bridal shop to anyone looking for their wedding dress.

Had a great experience at Bella ~ Melissa was great and very helpful in showing me fabulous gowns that I could buy off the rack and have altered since I was buying a dress only 8 weeks from wedding day. The gown was flawless and the accessories just divine! They also recommended an excellent bridal alterations place !! Gorgeous gowns !!!

This place is great! There is an employee named Katherine who is the BEST!!! I came in a tad stressed and her calming fun energy helped me pick the perfect dress for me. :)

This dress shop was significantly better than any others I visited (a total of 7 stores!). All the ladies were so good about listening to my comments and proposing suggestions. They were fantastic at pulling dresses that I had yet to see or notice that were spot on with what I was looking for. Even though I was assigned to one stylist, I felt like every other stylist there was helping out. It was a genuine group effort. Sara, who was my stylist, was a true professional. She got me in and out of dresses faster than I realized and was the first stylist out of all the dress shops to pin the front so I could see the back of the dress. She was super efficient, and it made the appointment go so smoothly. However, I only ranked 4 stars because they encouraged me to get a custom dress, a mash-up of two dresses, which turned out terrible. When the dress finally came in, it fit horribly, and I couldn't even find a seamstress who could alter it properly. I ended up having to take seam rippers to it myself! Ultimately, the dress was beautiful, but it wasn't worth the stress. I encourage any bride only to buy something off the rack and not go the custom route, and I suggest the workers at Bella Bridal not offer this as an option to anyone else.

I could not have asked for a better experience looking for a wedding dress than Bella Bridal! Everyone was so nice and helpful, but especially Taylor. She was very knowledgeable and made me (and my mom + 2 friends) feel very comfortable. It was such a fun experience! They had a wide variety of dresses and price ranges to choose from, and there was zero pressure on anyone’s part to make a sale or make you spend outside of your budget. I could not recommend Bella Bridal more! This is the only shop I visited and happy to say that I said yes to my dress thanks to Taylor and everyone else’s help and excellent service!

Taylor was beyond patient with us, she really took the time to figure out my daughters style of gown she was looking for! The experience was wonderful, in fact we were supposed to go to another bridal shop and instead we purchased a gown the same day. Thank you Taylor

Sarah was amazing! She was very efficient and seemed to have a great understanding of what my aesthetic was. It was a wonderful, easy, and fun experience. With how stressful wedding planning can be, it was a relief that this was SO easy and fun. Every dress I tried on was beautiful, and I can tell they are selective about the quality of garments they keep in their shop. 10/10

Ashley and Katherine were patient, extremely knowledgeable, transparent, fun, and supportive (clothes shopping gives me anxiety). They helped me find the perfect dress, well under budget. I felt very lost but had an amazing experience. So glad I came here.

This is the ONLY place you need to visit when looking for the perfect dress. An expansive inventory, along with dynamic associates, create an atmosphere that is unmatched. Upon arrival, Sarah was energetic yet professional and genuinely excited to go on this journey with me. She took the time to go over my vision and asked pertinent questions that I never even considered. This helped to make this process fun and exciting and really took all the pressure off of me. Her personalized approach and hands-on assistance helped me to navigate dress options that are most flattering, eliminating time and frustration. The prices really do vary, and although my dress looked like it could have been 3x the price, I was pleasantly surprised. Lastly, no one is left out of this awesome experience either, as my ladies had an absolute blast during their time on the judge's couch. If you want a one-of-a-kind experience with associates who have great style and input, this is your place. You will not be disappointed.

I had the best experience at Bella Bridal! All the staff were kind and supportive. Sarah was my stylist and she was absolutely wonderful! She was friendly, kind, and attentive. She engaged in conversation to learn more about me and my wedding/plans. She also listened to what I liked and wanted in a dress. She selected gowns off the rack and to be ordered and was respectful and upfront about sticking to my budget. Other staff members also helped here and there, giving their feedback about how a dress looked or what I might like or want to try on. It was nice to have their input because I actually went solo. Sarah emphasized how she wanted to help me find the one and that I needed to feel beautiful and comfortable. After checking out 4 other places and having tried on over 20 dresses (one of which I actually said yes to and then had second doubts), I'm so happy I went here and said yes to the dress I absolutely love. I can't say enough good things about my experience at Bella Bridal. Make an appointment here, VC brides! :)

went in to try on veils as I had already purchased my dress at another shop. I cannot believe how lovely Ashley was! She was so helpful and patient - I tried on quite a few veils and didn’t really know much about them at all, or what I wanted. Ashley explained how veils work/the shapes/fabrics/styling and offered super awesome advice based on my dress and accessories. I didn’t buy a veil today, but Ashley still offered me champagne and water. I would very much recommend Bella Bridal for everyone!

I had an amazing experience with the Bella Bridal team! My consultant was Bella and she took amazing care of me and my ladies. The whole team got involved and were so attentive. They really helped me to see and feel all my options for the dress I fell in love with. I am a slow decision maker and they were so patient and encouraging and really gave me the time and space to finally say "Yes" to the dress! I highly recommend Bella Bridal for all future brides!

This 5 star is so deserved. I went yesterday with my "Bride Tribe" consisting of 5 women (+ myself of course) for my first ever dress try ons. Jay greeted us with the biggest smile and pulled my mom and I aside for my interview. We went over everything in my online application and she immediately knew everything to grab for me. I was obsessed with every choice and I felt she knew my exact vision. I also went in with such a clear vision, but given this being my first time ever putting on any dresses, Jay was very transparent about trying different styles and how surprised I might be. I trusted her and boy! I was definitely surprised. Ended up changing my whole vision (for the best) for my dress and was shocked with what I felt beautiful in. Jay made me feel so extremely comfortable and so pretty the entire time. I was very self conscious at first and showing myself to my group, but Jay just brought out such a confidence in me. I am SO grateful for my experience and I will no doubt remember this forever. I will forever recommend this shop to anyone who will listen because of the gorgeous stock, incredible atmosphere, and because of Jay! Thank you Bella Bridal!

It turned out stunning. Thank you ladies so so much for everything.

I found the one here! Let me say I had the most amazing experience here. This journey was tough as I lost my mom recently and picking a dress without her seemed impossible. This was my 3rd appointment and I had found some nice dresses before but nothing was the one. When I entered Bella Bridal, Sarah, greeted me with a great smile. She studied my interview before coming in; looked up my venue, knew what I was looking for, and really made my family feel right at home, as well as me. The entire appointment she was interactive with my family and me, keeping in mind my date, my venue look, my wants/needs/dislikes. During the appointment, Sarah and I talked about things in common and she mentioned to me, “I feel that I get paired with specific brides for a reason”, And I completely agree. I will bring it back to my momma who’s passed. Sarah asked me about her in a respectful manner, we shared and connected. Something I didn’t tell Sarah this, but Sarah wore Mickey Mouse earrings when I went in and my mom loved Disney, was even a Disney employee at one point. Seeing those earrings, I thought of my mom. Then Sarah explained she had a fairy tattoo for her mom, my mom’s favorite character was Tinkerbell. That’s when I knew Sarah was there with me for a reason and that reason was to help me see my mom was with me during this special moment. Sarah pulled the “one” and I had my eye on it but wasn’t too sure because it was strapless; something I wanted to avoid because I have a large chest. But it was PERFECT, obviously because it was the one, and Sarah informed me of alterations that can be done to help with the strapless situation. I unfortunately couldn’t say yes that day because my future mother in law wasn’t present and it was important she was there. Also, I was scheduled to try on this dress I’d been looking the next day. Sarah joked that we’d be back for the dress I’d just try on. We went to the other store the next day and I couldn’t get that dress at Bella Bridal off my mind and I honestly couldn’t get the service I’d received at Bella Bridal off my mind. We went back to Bella Bridal after that appointment and before even getting to the door, Sarah greeted us with the most warm and inviting welcome back. She had the “one” ready in the dressing room and since my mother in law was present, I felt I could definitely say yes, which I did through happy tears. Also something I completely appreciated was that Bella Bridal had larger sizes for me to try on, they didn’t have just smaller sizes like another place I went to had. In addition, when I said yes, other ladies who worked there came to celebrate with us. It was the BEST experience out of all the places I went to and will never forget how special it felt. Thank you again Sarah and Bella Bridal Couture!

Found the one here! This was the 7th dress store I went to and I'm so relieved to have found my dress! My stylist Ashley was so supportive and sweet, it made the appointment really easy and fun. A lot of the other workers would also comment on how beautiful the dress looked on me and also made other suggestions for my second dress and veil. Overall, a really great experience, highly recommend!!!!

I had the best time finding my dress here. Sarah was my consultant and she was simply amazing. She was so attentive and listened to everything I liked and disliked. She helped me find a dress that made me feel beautiful and like the bride I wanted to be! I only tried on a few dresses because she only put me in what I wanted and by the 4th dress I had found the one. I am so happy with my experience and so thankful to her for making me feel beautiful when I don’t always see myself that way. I would totally recommend this place and her to anyone!!

Okay ladies! I want to shout it from the rooftops, but this shop is hands down the best bridal shop I have ever been to!!! This was my third stop trying on bridesmaid dresses back in may of 2021 and my experience here was amazing the dress choices are beautiful and I cannot wait to wear my dress is 30 days! Fast forward to my most recent experience. I referred a friend here who is getting married in October 2022. She had a horrible experience her first time trying on dresses and was hopeful she would have a better experience at this shop. From the second we walked into the door, Jay was so helpful and knowledgeable on all the dress types and kept in mind we were working with a budget. My gf was glowing the entire time she tried on every dress. Jay really helped us visualize what the custom dress would look like by pulling other materials and showing us. She spent 2 hours helping us out and we are so thankful. When it came time to customize the dress, Shauna thoroughly explained all the changes we would make, timing and costing. All in all I would refer every friend here hands down. Thank you Bella for making the most fun part of wedding planning FUN!!

Bella Bridal Couture was the first place that I went to look for wedding dresses after I got engaged. I had just randomly found the store online and decided to try it. I was a little stressed/scared to try on dresses for the first time, but when my mom, sister, and one of my bridesmaids came in, we were greeted by Anastasia who seemed super sweet, offered us champagne, and explained the whole process to us. We were able to search for dresses throughout the store while she also asked me questions, looked at my wedding dress style pictures that I had saved, and chose additional dresses for me to try on. It was very fun because we all got to pick out different style dresses for me to try on. She made me feel very comfortable as we chatted in the dressing room as I tried on dresses. She walked me out each time to show my group the dress and laid out the trains and explained any possible alterations. She was never pushy and let me try on as many dresses as I wanted. All the dresses at the shop were beautiful! My favorite dress was one that Anastasia chose. At the end of the appointment, I needed to think more about what I wanted so Anastasia gave me her card and helped set up another appointment in case I wanted to come back. We all left very excited and happy! I ended up going to 2 other bridal shops to look at dresses and I realized how special Bella Bridal Couture and Anastasia were. They actually cared about their clients and wanted to make sure the experience was fun and relaxing. Other places had many beautiful dresses but their “personalized appointments” consisted of me going in and either picking a few dresses to try or them picking the dresses for me and then they would rush me in and out of the dressing room. They would also not even help fluff out the dress trains for pictures or even just for looking in the mirror. I ended up being very grateful that Bella Bridal Couture was my first place that I experienced. I ended up going back there and said YES to that dress I loved that Anastasia had picked out! Thanks Anastasia for making the whole process amazing!

I ran into a pinch with no wedding dress for my wedding in two weeks. I called Bella Bridal and explained the situation, and they got me in that day. From the moment I called to the moment I got there they were accommodating and extremely helpful. JAY was incredible to work with and made the process so fun. I couldn't post a more positive review for Bella Bridal. THANK YOU for an amazing dress and experience I will remember for the rest of my life.

Absolutely incredible!! They have the most gorgeous wedding gowns in all of SoCal literally I had a hard time deciding which one bc there were so many gorgeous ones there. And This was after I had been to three different other bridal salons with disappointing dresses before finding Bella. So I can say for sure that their dresses are the most beautiful out there 🙌🏻 and the whole experience was so pleasant and professional. They give you a glass of champagne and treat you like a queen during your appointment. And they actually listen to every detail of what you’re looking for

I had a wonderful experience! Anastasia was wonderful. I told her what I was looking for and she gave some really helpful tips. She knew exactly what looked good based on what I told her and brought me so many gorgeous dresses. She was very professional and made sure I was comfortable while helping me change and also made conversation so it wasn't awkward. This was my first appointment and I walked out with the dress of my dreams! I highly recommend booking with her.

My bridal stylist, Anastasia, is the #1 reason why I'm giving this place 5 stars. From the moment we walked into the door, Anastasia was incredibly attentive and listened so well to what I was looking for. I usually get super stressed when shopping for clothes, let alone a wedding dress, but Anastasia made the entire experience comfortable and enjoyable. Since this was the first bridal shop I went to, I originally hesitated on choosing a gown I knew I loved without going to another shop first just to be sure. After a horrible experience at another boutique in Thousand Oaks called Bridal Collection, my mom and I quickly went back to Bella Bridal to purchase my dream gown. Thank you to Anastasia and the rest of the Bella Bridal team -- you guys are awesome!

I had the best experience at Bella Bridal Couture! To be honest, I wasn't really looking forward to the whole 'trying on bridal dresses' thing, as I worried that I wasn't going to find anything that would fit just right or that I would love, but I was wrong. The ladies at Bella Bridal Couture made the entire experience from start to finish wonderful for me and my loved ones. They had so many beautiful options and made me extremely comfortable. Kat, Melissa, and Shanna were all fantastic - kind, fun, and knowledgeable, offering such helpful insight, without making me feel pressured. I was able to walk away with my dream dress! I highly recommend this boutique!
