✨Testimonial Tuesday✨

“My dress 100% the most perfect and beautiful article of clothing I will ever own. When originally starting the search, it was very overwhelming to try to figure out what type of dress I would want. We had only gone to one other bridal salon before going to the Persnickety Bride... and it was not a great experience to say the least. But the Persnickety Bride was completely different! Aeryn, Denise's daughter, helped us and she was amazing! She is so knowledgeable and really knows how to hype you up! She actually was the one who picked out the wedding. She recommended it to me when I first got to the store... and I knew it was the one pretty early on. But all of the dresses she tried on were gorgeous! This dress is so unique and so delicately put together. We have never seen anything like it before :) My husband and guests were also was blown away the day of the wedding!!!

Thank you so much to both Aeryn and Denise for helping me find my dream dress :) So excited for your new and larger location... We have already recommended your shop a bunch to people and will continue to do so! Thank you :)” - Emily M

✨Testimonial Tuesday✨

“I wasn’t lucky enough to make it to the store and meet Denise but I found a dress at my local bridal shop and the dress has been discontinued and the bride after me ended up buying the dress. I was devastated but determined to find the dress somewhere. I ended up finding the Persnickety bridal online and saw they had it. I got in contact with Denise and she had it shipped to me within a few days. I got the dress and it fit like a perfect match and is absolutely stunning 😍 ! She was so sweet and helpful I highly recommend the shop and working with her!” - Lisa H

✨Testimonial Tuesday✨

“I had an amazing experience at this bridal salon! The woman who runs it is a force to be reckoned with and has an incredible résumé that I would highly recommend reading. She knows the wedding industry inside and out and gives excellent advice. She locked onto what I was looking for immediately and my style and was pulling dresses off the rack just by memory of her inventory and hitting the nail on head! She also did an amazing job advocating for me and what I liked and ensured that my voice and vision was heard by my guests. It was like a warm hug of an experience and definitely one I will cherish. All in all a wonderful experience and I am glad to call myself a persnickety bride!” - Molly J
