Erin Cole Couture Bridal

I had an amazing experience at Erin Cole. As I described what kind of dress I was looking for Erin knew exactly what dress to put me in first, and she was completely right. The very first dress I tried on was "The One." Erin showed me different beading that I could add to the dress to make it my own. She showed me several different veils, and helped me choose the perfect one. I can't wait until my Judd Waddell dress comes in!

I would just like to say that I've had the most amazing experiance @ Erin Cole Couture Bridal!!
I attended the Rivini Trunk show, where I had the opportunity of meeting the designer and was treated like a queen! My mom and I even sipped champagne while finding the gown of my dreams. I later attended an Erin Cole Acessory trunk show, where I had the opportunity of meeting Erin Cole herself! She worked magic with my hair and custom designed hair jewelry that went perfectly with my Rivini gown. Apparently Erin has been voted as Couture Accesory designer for the past two years. What a treat to have an amazing salon like this in our area! I'd gone to three other local salons and Experianced nothing close. I've had several other friends with the same experiance, so I feel strongly about my rating.

Erin is THE BEST! I had been eyeballing her accessories, but I waited too long and it was too late to order them... so I purchased "others". I was surprised to find out (2 days before my wedding) that a long time vendor from work was her husband! I mentioned how much I wanted Erin Cole hairpins. The day before my wedding, Erin sent him (Mike) to my office with Erin Cole hairpins! I was driving when I found out and I about crashed my car I was so excited! Needless to say that the "other" hairpins didn't get to see the daylight on my wedding day!

Erin, I can't thank you enough, you made my wedding day complete. I wish you the best!

With much appreciation, Nichole H.

I first went to Erin Cole Couture a year ago when I began looking for my wedding dress. I cannot say enough nice things about the salon, the people that work there and the Dresses!! The whole experience will be a highlight in my memory of my wedding. After purchasing my one of a kind dress, I recommended her salon to several of my girlfriends. They too had equal if not better experiences then me.

What can I say about Erin Cole Bridal, well A Lot! My appointment was the last appointment of the day and the consultant called me earlier that day and asked how for sure if I was going to make the appointment and I told her 100% why would I make an appointment If I was not going to make it. Right then an there gave me a terrible feeling about the place. When I arrived at the salon the consultant pretty much rushed me because she wanted to close up shop early, I seriously looked at maybe 3 gowns did not try any on. The consultant basically told me in a nutshell that I was too old of a bride ( I'm 27) too short (I'm 5'4") too fat ( I'm 120lbs) too broke but she told me to come back and purchase their couture jewelry. Needless to say I'm being nice for giving them one star :)

Elegant shop located in a very unique shopping mini mall. She is a very nice, tall, and beautiful shop owner/designer who knows bridal gowns. She is very supportive and not pushy about selling other 'things'. Her accessories, mainly her jewelry designs are gorgeous, and i bought some earrings. Her staff are very nice and supportive as well. Everything is by appointment only so they can give you their undivided attention. I've been to other bridal places, and I don't recommend anyone else.

My dress was amazing! I looked at many different stores and this was the last on my list. A lot of other stores had many of the same dress and Erin's had far less but I loved so many of them, had none I had ever seen before. I loved that I spend several hours (on a Saturday no less) and I was not rushed or pressured into buying a dress that day or I would "loose" out on a discount! When I tired on my dress I just knew it was the one. They took my measurements and when I received my dress I needed NO alterations! It fit perfectly!

I had an absolutely amazing experience buying a Judd Waddell gown at Erin Cole in Costa Mesa. All of the sales people were helpful. The dress arrived early. I also bought shoes and a veil from them! Go now, don't wait.

This is by far my #1 recommendation for a Bridal Salon, I have had the best experience in working with Erin Cole Couture Bridal. Not only are Erin's award winning accessories to die for, but their Costa Mesa location houses such a large variety of exquisite gowns and has incredible customer service. Tara, their sales associate, was so helpful and truly brought all of the gowns to life during the fitting; she never pressured the Bride into purchasing anything because of a high price tag (which many places I have experienced tend to do, since they generally work on commission). The gowns they feature are on the higher price end, the quality is incomparable, and they still had a somewhat large section of dresses that are in a realistic price range. If you want to avoid hassle while finding your dream dress, as a wedding planner... I highly recommend booking them at least 6 months in advance.
