Bella Rosa Bridal

Unfortunately I have to change my review of this shop. At first it was great. My consultant was awesome. BUT, after today, I don't think I will be returning there for anything! I had a 1pm appointment for 6 of my bridesmaids to be fitted and to order their dresses. They were so unorganized AND the primary consultant was rude. I was told that the dresses would be pulled for the appointment so the bridesmaids could try them on...well they weren't. The consultant wanted to measure the girls, pick a size on the chart and order the dresses. How can you can you order a dress without knowing which dress they were getting?! I asked her if the dresses would be pulled and the stuck-up &$(#@ said in a snotty tone, "they would be eventually"! I'm getting angry all over again... my sister retorted in the same tone as she did and the consultant didn't like it and all of a sudden she had to leave. Here comes another consultant she was just as bad. Back comes the 1st one. All the while they leave the secondary consultant to contend with us. She was super sweet and awesome. After being on her 3rd day of work, she rocked!!! I can't even say that it was a race thing because another young lady was left hanging as well. I'd read other reviews about the salon that were not good and mentioned the very thing that I mentioned above; in addition to ordering the wrong size dresses. BEWARE!

I have had nothing but a FANTASTIC experience at Bella Rosa! I went here as the very first place I tried on dresses and then continued on to places I felt were more within my budget. Because of the amazing service I'd received there I really felt compelled to go back and give them another shot. I ended up finding my dress on their Sample rack for a great price! I spent almost as much in alterations (that would be the only negative here) but it looks absolutely AMAZING! They've been phenomenal to work with! I highly recommend them!

Bella Rosa is a fabulous upscale bridal gown boutique. The women there are extremely nice and considerate of your budget. Although most of their gowns are pricey, they have a good selection of sample gowns on sale both online at bellarosabridal.com and in the store. Although I did not purchase my gown here, I felt like I was in good and kind hands the two hours I spent there. The woman working with me was so sweet even when I told her I didn't think that I had found my dress. Excellent experience!

I have been to Bella Rosa for 2 different occasions. One as a bridesmaid and one as the bride. Both were great experiences. As a bridesmaid I was just measured and tried on the sample dress, but everyone was very polite and helpful. When I was the bride the experience was fantastic!! They were great about showing me dresses within my budget (not something I couldn't afford!!), and contrary to the previous review, they were very upfront with what to expect as far as alteration costs, and the seamstresses were very polite and patient. Overall my experiences there have been outstanding.

I just wanted to write how wonderful Bella Rosa was, especially Cathy. They have a wonderful selection of gowns, they are extremely nice and actually listen to you and really help you. After going to many bridal shops where I felt the experience was not what it should have been I went to Bella Rosa, they helped me find a dress, and let me look at their selection, not just have people pick out what I would like, and made the whole experience really pleasant. Their prices were competitive, their prices for alterations really good and the shop itself is really nice and comfortable. It was well worth the drive from Washington, DC!

My daughter bought her magnificent Cathedral length veil at this location and she had picked out my dress that I purchased. Phyliss was our Bridal Consultant and she was very welcoming and comforting addressing my concerns in being able to fit into this dress due to my extremely petite size. Christine, Store Manager and Phyliss were both available for me when I came for my fitting knowing how nervous I would be and had informed the seamstress to be prepared. Luckily the way the dress was made, the size 2 actually fit with a firm knot at the halter neck and just a hemline needed to be done. Thank you for such caring individuals during a momentus time in my daughters life, but yet there is stressful times such as these to accomplish!

Although I am from Charleston, WV, I decided to purchase my dress in Virginia because I was getting married in Charlottesville and I knew the selection of gowns would be better in Virginia than anywhere in WV. I looked at two stores in Richmond and Bella Rosa had by far the best selection! The staff was extremely accomodating and patient - especially considering that I had to drive 5 hours just to get there for my fittings! I HIGHLY recommend Phyllis - she is absolutely wonderful to work with and is truly a friend. I had an amazing experience at Bella Rosa and recommend it for all brides!
