As a plus-sized bride, I LOVED my experience at The White Dress. 10/10 stars.
I was a 2020 bride who had to postpone due to COVID. In 2019, I went shopping at The White Dress and while I did not purchase my dress from them INITIALLY, I had an amazing experience. During COVID, I was diagnosed with a disability & developed mobility issues that impacted my body shape and made my original "perfect dress" impossible to wear. I was dreading shopping for a second dress, and it had impacted all my feelings about replanning. I reached out to TWD and let them know about my situation, since I had such a good experience with them the first time around. I was very nervous, but their staff worked with me with almost daily communication leading up to my appointment. They had a number of samples in my size and worked hard to get their hands on any other samples that I was interested in. I am still getting used to my new body and grieving my old dress, but they made me feel beautiful and they worked hard to make sure I didn't have a single uncomfortable moment. They were incredibly supportive and sensitive throughout the whole process, honored my budget and found ways to try to save me money, and truly made me feel good in my new shape and my new dress (obviously, I did decide to purchase my new dress from them!). I feel so relieved and I'm actually excited about my wedding and planning again (which I wasn't expecting to experience this time around). Marissa was so sweet and communicative and went above and beyond leading up to my appointment to secure samples in my size and according to my interests, and Paige was my consultant on the day of and was the best hypewoman I could've imagined (and had the vision to pull the dress I ended up buying). I am so grateful for this experience, this shop, and these two TWD consultants in particular. Thanks, TWD!
