Everyone working at Carolina Bridal World were very friendly. Love that you can go through the racks and pick out dresses yourself. I also like that they don't take appointments so you're not limited on how long you can be there.

I searched all over NC for the *perfect wedding dress. We drove hours and hours to find THE ONE, when it was in Smithfield the whole time! My dress was a Mori Lee, which not many "popular" dress stores carry in NC. Mandy, Courtney, and Summer were awesome to work with. My shoes came in a couple weeks after I ordered them and my veil came not long after. My dress arrived after only 4 weeks of ordering it. I could not have been happier with my selection and the hard work of the Carolina Bridal World.

I got my dress from Carolina Bridal and I'm really glad I went there! I was originally going to just go to David's Bridal until a friend told me about this place. They don't take appointments so be sure to get there early and have some extra time on your hands. They had such a great selection of dresses, it's definitely worth it to go. They do price matching also and told me that if I found my dress for less money anywhere else (besides online quotes) they would price match it for me. Well, I only found my dress at one other shop and it was $400 more expensive so I really feel like I got a good deal. There's so much to chose from and the staff is really nice. Go to Carolina Bridal!

I got my dress from Carolina Bridal and it was beautiful!!!!!! They were great to work with and I got my dress came in with plenty of time to spare! They said they would price match my dress if I found it cheaper elsewhere, I found my dress at ONE other place and it was actually $400 MORE than what I paid at Carolina Bridal. They do not do alterations in house but they do recommend certain people depending on where you live. They recommended me to Mrs. Virginia Owens in Raleigh, NC and she was absolutely wonderful! She adjusted my one strap, took the front of my dress in a couple inches in the front and added a bustle all for $45!!!

I found my perfect dress at Carolina Bridal World and actually went back and bought it right off the rack! They were so helpful and I did not feel pressured at all.

This was the first and only place I looked for a wedding dress back in February. I didn't feel pressured at all and was told I could leave the dresses on as long as I wanted and try on as many as I wanted. I was back and forth between a couple dresses, and they helped me decide. They screwed up my bill a couple times but were quick to fix it. The dress took a little longer than expected to come in, but I had it in plenty of time. Everyone loved my dress at my wedding.

I ordered my wedding gown from this vendor. I got an incredible deal on an amazing designer dress. Just 99 bucks for a dress that retailed for 860 dollars! The day of my wedding people could not stop commenting on what an amazing dress I wore for my special day!
GUEST




I truly enjoyed the experience of purchasing my dress from Carolina Bridal World. The ladies in sales were very professional and I feel as though I got a very good value for my dress and the experience as a whole. It took a lot of stress out of the process knowing that I was working with such a great group of individuals.
GUEST




They were able to help me take a dress that was similar to what I wanted but not exactly. They were able to let me pick and chose designs from other gowns to make the perfect gown for me! Great price

Carolina Bridal World has a huge selection of designer dresses for very reasonable prices and they are all very, very nice ladies that will quickly return your call and answer questions, however when I went to pick up my dress - it had a pin-prick blood spot on it so they had to send it out to be spot-cleaned. Because of the type of fabric, the spot-cleaned area left a different spot on the fabric. The blood was gone... but there was a residual cleaner spot. I asked for a free veil to compensate me -- but they were only willing to give me a free pair of shoes worth about $50.00. I took the shoes but was bummed that my dress wasn't perfect. None of my guests noticed the spot and even 2 months later at my wedding - I couldn't find the spot either.
GUEST




The girls at Carolina Bridal world are fabulous! I tried on dresses there twice, at least 20 dresses each time and they were helpful (and patient) the entire time. After trying about 60 dresses at 5 different shops, the girls at Carolina Bridal World helped me find the one! Then they stayed on top of the shipment of that dress until it came in. It's a haul out to Smithfield but after some of the ridiculous dress shopping experiences here in Raleigh (ahem - Bridal Gallery at MacGregor) it was worth the drive.




The staff at Carolina Bridal World was extremely attentive and helpful. I really wanted to get the dress taken care of as soon as possible and they did everything they could to help me find 'the one'. The consultative approach they have is useful in helping you determine what style really works for your personality and shape. They never tried to rush me and ended up bringing me dozens of dresses to try on (and re-try on) before the day was done. More importantly, the sales consultant really bonded with my mom and made sure she still felt like an important part of the process (which of course, she was).




This venue is about a thirty minute drive from Raleigh, but well worth it. I actually ended up purchasing the second dress that I found. You do not have to make an appointment in order to try on dresses. You simply go to the store look around a while to get an idea of the style you would like and then start trying on dresses. I was able to find a beautiful dress for under $500. My seamstress even made the comment that the dress was well made. The sales lady was very friendly and also helpful. She even suggested a style and brought some dresses for me to try. They don't work on commission there, so they are not pushy and rude like some other places. The only draw back was that I was told the dress would be in around mid May, but it didn't actually come to the store until later in June. Therefore, I suggest going at least five months before your wedding to avoid paying higher shipping costs for a faster delivery.

I got my wedding dress from carolina bridal world. They were very helpful and very easy to work with. They allow you to keep the dress there so you don't have to worry about it. We just picked it up before the bridal portraits and carried it back. The week of the wedding they cleaned and steamed the dress and fixed any bead work that had become loose after the bridal portrait session. I would most definitely recommend Carolina Bridal World!
GUEST




My dress was beautiful and a great price. The only reason I didn't give them five stars on everything is because it took SO long for my dress to come in so I had to speed it up and it came in 6 weeks earlier than they told me, so I could have not paid the extra express order fee and it would have come in in plenty of time.
GUEST




I came to the store to look at dresses and told the sales person exactly what i was looking for. She ended up bringing a dress to me to try on and it turned out to be the one i ended up buying.
GUEST




Excellent value for the money, nice selection!
GUEST




I enjoyed the low pressure atmosphere. The bridal consultants did not wait on you hand and foot, which was nice. I felt I was free to move about the store and when I had questions someone was at the front to answer. My dress did have to be ordered, but the wait was accurately described before the order and came in on time!
GUEST




Sometimes when we went in the customer service would be lacking, but aside from that we had a great experience. They gave me an amazing discount on a discontinued bridal gown, and then price matched another bridal outlet in burlington, NC! I was very impressed and would HIGHLY recommend brides go and atleast check it out!
GUEST




They were flexible in receiving my bridesmaids measurements. The style, color, size selection was huge! I had no trouble finding dressed that fit my taste, color preference, as well as differing sizes in my bridesmaids. They were relatively convenient to get to. The dresses were ready on time, and I didn't have to worry about the sizing being off. I only had to have 1 dress altered.
GUEST




We purchased my bridesmaids dresses from Carolina Bridal World and I was impressed with how helpful they were. They didn't follow you around so that you felt uncomfortable to shop, but were close enough that they could help you if you needed assistance. I would say the turn-around time to receive the dresses was average for bridesmaids dresses.
