The Bridal Secret

I love the Bridal Secret! Judy and her staff take the time to listen to your needs/wants in a dress and then help guide you to the right dress for your big day. She only schedules one bride at a time which provides her with the time to really devote to you. What a great concept! She made the whole process fun, and easy. She truly loves what she does and I couldn't be more happy! Thank you Judy, you are AMAZING!

I can't say anything else that others haven't already said but still wanted to share what an amazing experience I had at the bridal secret with Judy. Judy was so fun and knew exactly what dresses to pull for me that I'd love and flatter my body type. We had such a great time.. And bought a dress!! Thanks Judy!

My niece got married this past June and went to several dress vendors, in the end she selected The Bridal Secret in Quincy. Knowing all the research she had gone to, when my daughter got engaged in May and decided on a March 17th wedding, we, too, decided to go to The Bridal Secret and are happy we did. Judy (the owner) absolutely knows her business - she knows what will and will not look good on her brides. My daughter had an idea of what she wanted and in the end got something completely different. Without Judy's assistance, that would not have happened. Judy had my daughter select several dresses and then added a few choices of her own - all dresses she knew would work on my daughter - awesome - we quickly eliminated what we thought she wanted. Price wise, you tell Judy what range you're looking for and she makes sure you look at appropriately priced dresses. Her dresses are GORGEOUS!!!!!!!! Top designer names and as her tagline goes - Couture dresses at off the rack prices. Judy also offers lovely veils. The dress you select, is the dress you actually purchase - you do not have to order it and then wait for months. Judy also stores the dress until a few days prior to the wedding and the dress comes steamed, presses and ready to go. Judy personally makes ALL alterations at an extremely reasonable price. One thing I think that's very important is that Judy is really truly only interested in the bride's opinion - she wants her brides happy and for them to get what they want not what every one else wants. After all it is the BRIDES big day.

Judy and her shop are simply amazing! I went to look at dresses in January 2012 with my mom and sister. I had received a recommendation to see Judy and I was excited for our appointment. I wasn't disappointed! I picked a bunch of dresses as did Judy. All of the ones that Judy selected for me to try on were perfect! She has a gift for knowing what style will work on the bride and what dresses will look amazing. When you go for your appointment, you list the criteria of what you are looking for and your price range. Judy follows those points perfectly. She does not pressure you into a dress out of your range and suggests the best dresses based on your preferences. I ended up choosing a dress on my first visit which was both awesome and terrifying! I got married 9 months later and in between I always looked forward to my visits to the Bridal Secret. I went to "visit" my dress and then went for my fittings. Each time Judy made me feel beautiful and at ease! On my wedding day I never imagined I could feel as amazing as I did! The alterations Judy did on the dress made it look as though it were made for me. AMAZING! I would consider Judy a new friend and would recommend her shop and work to anyone!

Judy from the Bridal Secret was AWESOME!!! She made me feel beautiful and like a Queen!! From the first day I met her, when she picked out the perfect dress for me, I knew that I could be at ease and enjoy this once in a lifetime process of finding and looking great in the wedding gown of my dreams! Judy responded immediately to any contact I made to her whether it was by phone or email. She was always able to accommodate my schedule and never made me feel rushed! My gown was gorgeous and an awesome price - including the alterations that Judy herself made. I loved the back of my gown as much as the front especially after the "Bustle Queen" was finished making it 100% perfect and an art form in itself! Overall, I had the best experience with Bridal Secret and would recommend it to anyone that wanted to have a relaxing but professional experience in an intimate boutique with great prices for designer gowns!!!

Judy is amazing! The only bridal shop I went too, from the minute I walked into her shop and met her, I knew I would find my wedding dress there, and I sure did! Judy made me feel so comfortable, she was so helpful and reasonable and made my wedding dress shopping an experience I will never forget! I found the most gorgeous dress, and Judy altered it to perfection! Judy also fluffed my dress before I walked down the aisle, she is amazing!!!!

I love Judy and The Bridal Secret! My best friend and I went in for my appointment and were welcomed so warmly by Judy and her sales associates. The dress selection was amazing and it didnt take me long at all to find the perfect wedding gown. Judy definitely knows her wedding dresses. The whole experience was great and I can't wait to put my dress on again! Thank you Judy!!!

I had a wonderful experience from start to finish at the bridal secret. Judy is very accommodating, I had to fly in for all my alterations and Judy went out of her way to come in early, ect just to help out with my limited availability. The veil she made was beautiful and it was so nice to have a hand made veil, everyone raved about it. She is a master at alterations and is very skilled and knowledgable with bridal gowns, which ones work with different body types, how they should fit, ect. Towards the last weeks days before the wedding my stress level was through the roof and she calmed me down helping me stay focused on what the wedding is suppose to be about, marrying my best friend. It was great to have her guidance and support throughout the entire experience. I would recommend the Bridal Secret to anyone who wants a personal and wonderful experience with the perfect dress.

I really cannot say enough great words about The Bridal Secret and its owner, Judy.

It was the first place I went to look at dresses, and the only place I looked at dresses because it is just that great!! Judy is fantastic to work with - she responded to all of my emails right away and always sent reminders of my upcoming appointments. She helped me pick the most beautiful dress, and made sure that it fit exactly the way I wanted it to. She even took on altering my mother's dress for my wedding even though she probably had a million other things to do, which just shows how dedicated she is and how much she loves what she does.

Thank you Judy for helping me pick the perfect dress and for making the wedding dress shopping experience so pleasant. I almost want to get married again (vow renewal, maybe? lol) just so I can go back into her shop and try on more dresses!! You are amazing...

Beautiful dresses AND for an excellent price! I found the perfect dress at The Bridal Secret. Judy was wonderful at helping to find my dress and gave some great recommendations with hair accessories, jewelry. she also did an awesome job at dress alterations! I would highly recommend all brides in the area check this place out!

First off, I cannot say ENOUGH about how wonderful Judy is!!!

Her gorgeous and impeccably CLEAN shop, The Bridal Secret, is immediately impressive upon walking in. She and her staff are top notch in the industry and her attention to detail is stunning. Her prices are amazing!!! They are BRAND NEW DESIGNER dresses for so so much less than the big chain stores. She also has a full range of sizes from Petite Pixie all the way to Gorgeous Goddess. I was worried that as a "plus size" bride, I wouldn't be able to find anything, but I should never have given it a second thought! Not only did she have my size (and many that were larger), there was such a vast range of styles! I tried on five or six dresses and loved every one more than the last! Besides, with Judy's expertise as a seamstress and dressmaker, she is able to hand-tailor every dress to fit a bride's body perfectly.

Now, I have to mention that she also SAVED my veil. The story goes as such: I bought some fabric and my aunt made the veil for me. I showed Judy and tried it on with my dress, only to find out that my aunt had completely butchered the lace that I bought and sewed it completely wrong!!! Thank GOODNESS I showed it to Judy; she completely revamped the veil and fixed it for me so that it was prettier and more elegant than I could have ever imagined.

Judy's drive to go above and beyond what is expected of a great vendor is astounding. She continually impressed me with her knowlegde, skill, professionalism and most important, kindness. In short, if a bride doesn't call The Bridal Secret to be pampered by Judy during an individual consulation appointment, she is doing herself a great dis-service. There are certainly other bridal shops, but there is only ONE Bridal Secret and Judy is one of a kind!!!

I received a recommendation to check out the Bridal Secret from a friend and I am so glad I did! This was the one place I went to and knew that this was the place for me. Judy was extremely helpful in finding the perfect dress. The one I finally chose was one that I had initially bypassed on the rack, but Judy picked it out to try on. Thank you Judy! The price was right as well. It was also comforting to know that my alterations and veil could all be done right on site. Judy's attention to detail and dedication made my dress truly spectacular. I have already recommended her to many new brides and will continue to as I couldn't have been happier with my experience here. Thank you again!

Such a nice little boutique! Judy is great and very responsive...I'd send an email and within minutes I'd have a response almost every time. I was a little particular about my dress with alterations and making it just perfect and Judy was as accommodating as the dress would allow. They have a great selection, all off the rack, so no ordering or anything and great prices... I also hated dress shopping in general so this was super helpful.

Judy is very easy to work with and she has a great selections at a very good price. I highly recommend Judy and her Bridal Secret!

In my search for an affordable wedding dress shop in the Boston area, I came across the Bridal Secret. I had an idea of the dress I wanted, and since I was paying for it myself I knew I needed to keep my costs down. I was upfront with my budget when scheduling my appointment, and the shop owner, Judy, assured me that we could find a dress for my target price. At my appointment, the dresses I tried on were absolutely BEAUTIFUL-- the quality of the materials were stunning and the dresses were kept in perfect condition on their hangers. After trying on about 7 dresses I found "the one"-- and the price could not be beat. I was able to get my dress and alterations for well under my budget of $1000.
At all of my appointments and fittings, Judy was nothing but professional. She runs on time for you and she expects the same courtesy in return. She emailed to confirm all of my appointments, and was exactly on schedule with getting all of the alterations done--- not to mention that the dress came out flawless! She knows what she's doing on that tiny little sewing machine of hers.
Words of advice: Judy had advised me to go on a "practice run" before dress shopping with her, and I'm glad I did. The dresses here are brand new but off the rack, so come prepared to buy one, because it may not still be there if you're not ready to commit. And lastly, what Judy says goes!!! She is all business and you should not sass her, but when it comes to wedding dresses she knows her stuff! I thoroughly enjoyed working with her every step of the way, and I would not recommend you shop anywhere else for your wedding dress!

I can not say enough good things about Judy and her store. Although I did not get my dress from the Bridal Secret, I took it there to be altered and to have my bustle put in. Judy is so welcoming and her store is very warm and inviting. You can tell how devoted she is to her girls and her store in general. The store is filled with beautiful and well taken care of gowns, endless belts and accessories, and much more. The amount of care and time that Judy put into my dress really showed, and let me tell you, the price of the alterations was shocking to me. I had gone in there expecting them to be twice of what she charged. My alterations came out perfectly, and my bustle was amazing! I have had two other friends buy gowns with Judy, and they have all great things to say about their experience too. I would highly recommend anyone looking for a gown to visit the Bridal Secret, or anyone looking for someone to do their alterations to go to Judy. Thank you Judy, you are so talented and amazing!!!!

It was absolute fate meeting Judy and shopping at her store! I had the most amazing experience shopping there and fell in love with the dress I wore for my wedding the minute I put it on!
The reason I say it was fate meeting Judy is because I had put down a deposit on another dress only to find out it wasn't not in their store. It was only a couple of months until my wedding and I was in a panic. I went on Weddingwire to research places and found the Bridal Secret. It got so many great reviews and people could not say enough nice things about Judy; I knew this was the place for me to shop.
I called Judy and told her my story and she was very sympathetic to my situation. She made me feel so much better about having to shop for another dress. I was very nervous because I really thought I couldn't fall in love with another dress.
As it turns out, I was ten times more in love with my second dress than my first! She made my feel so comfortable and I was able to try on so many gorgeous gowns. On my wedding day I received so many compliments; everyone asked where I shopped. I made sure to tell them The Bridal Secret! My bustle was amazing and Judy is truly the best at it! She has such an eye for it; I couldn't believe how she transformed my long train into 21 bustle!!!
Judy made my shopping experience so wonderful and it was great getting to know her every time I went in for a fitting. She is such an amazing person!
Anyone looking for an amazing shopping experience and wants to have a huge selection of gorgeous gowns to choose from needs to go to the Bridal Secret and meet Judy and her amazing staff!

Judy is excellent. I suggest you let her pick dresses out for you to try... this is how i got my dress and she has a great eye for what will work best. Her alterations were awesome, she can do anything :-)

Amazing is the only word to describe my experience at the Bridal Secret. Being from out of state it was difficult for me to try and dress shop with my mother. We had been to almost every bridal salon on the south shore. Judy asked me what I was looking for and what problems I was having and put me in my dream dress. Not only was she able to cut a size 12 dress down to fit my size 4 frame but she made me an amazing bustle that allowed me to dance the night away and show off my turquoise cowboy boots. Every girl wants to feel like a princess on her wedding day and because I had the perfect dress, oh and by the way for under $1,000, I was one.

To be more technical Judy was always able to schedule me when I was in town,would email me back from her iPhone in minutes and knows more about dresses and alterations than anyone I have ever met.


Best experience ever!

I would reccomned anyone to go to Judy for their wedding dress. She is extremely professional and will help you find the dress that is right for you and make it a prefect and comfortable fit!

I am so glad I found the Bridal Secret and Judy, my wedding day would not have been the same without her! The Bridal Secret was the first and last place that I went to look for a dress. I purchased the 4th one I tried on, I fell in love with it before it was even completely on me. Judy was so great to work with and she did such a beautiful job with the alterations and the bustle. My dress had a corset, but I did not have a bridal party to help me with it, and Judy offered to come to my hotel and help get me dressed. She went above and beyond to make sure my dress looked perfect on my wedding day. I highly recommend The Bridal Secret for her selection, prices and her personal involvement in every step of the process.

If I could give The Bridal Secret a 10 I would!! This place is amazing!! My mom passed away 2yrs ago and picking a dress was SO hard without her!! Judy (the owner) made the dredded event as special as it should have been! Plan ahead and make your appointment, b/c she doesn't do drop-in's, but it is worth it!

She also did my alterations for both dresses (yes, I had TWO dresses), and they were...

Judy did a fantastic job on my dress. I would highly recommend Bridal Secret to anyone. My dress was absolutely beautiful thanks to her.

I got my dress less than 2 months before the wedding, so there wasn't much time for alterations. I initially brought my dress to a place in Boston, and they quoted me $1,000 for the alterations I wanted to do. Totally shocking, I couldn't believe it when I heard the fee quote. Then my friend recommended me to the Bridal Secret, so I gave it a try. The owner, Judy, was very accommodating, her fee quote for the work was a fraction of the place in Boston. With years of experience doing bridal gowns, I had a good gut feeling about her, so I decided to go with her. Her work was absolutely amazing, my dress looked amazing and fit me perfectly. Make sure you call/email ahead of time because they are appointment only.

Wow,
Judy is the best at what she does. My dress fit like a glove. The alterations on my dress were amazing she is a master seamstress she has made me realize that a true seamstress is not a job but an art that only some are capable of achieving. I love her so much for what she does I looked amazing in my dress do to the wonderful job that she did. She took time out for me and mad sure that I was satisfied. Her shop is very intimate and calm place,not like other places were there is all these other people. Not there she takes everyone by appt so you have her full attention.
Thanks...

I couldnt have asked for a better experience with buying a wedding dress. Judy is amazing and was so helpful. She made my decision so easy!!!

I went to the Bridal Secret because my two best friends found their dresses there and highly recommended it. The experience was truly wonderful. Judy and her salespeople are very attentive and really try to get to know you and what you are looking for. The first two dresses I tried on, I immediately wanted to buy them, but of course my mom wanted to see a few more. I had narrowed it down to a couple, and at the end my saleslady (Jill) brought over one more dress that she had picked out just for me and thought would look great. I looked at it and thought it wasn't really my style, but my mom does love lace so I tried it on anyway. When I came out of the fitting room my mom burst into tears, I began crying, and Jill began crying too. It was a very special moment and we knew this was THE dress. It was so beautiful, detailed and intricate and we were literally shocked by the price. It felt like a $10,000.00 dress but was MUCH more afforable! Judy stayed in touch with me throughout the entire process and was so flexible with my fittings (even opening early at 7 AM to see me since I was traveling in from NYC). She sent me messages to check in just before the wedding and afterwards and was so supportive. Judy has an amzing selection of beautiful designer gowns and I would recommend The Bridal Secret to anyone looking for a beautiful gown, great service, and who doesn't want to spend a fortune for an amazing dress and accessories.

Judy is AMAZING! I can't express how happy I am that I stumbled on her store. Not only is Judy amazing, but her collection is unreal. She has so many beautiful dresses at such a great price! After 45 minutes in the store, I bought my dress. They understood exactly what I wanted and picked the dress that I wore on my wedding day.

Judy went above and beyond what a regular store owner would do. She treated me like I was the only bride buying from her store.

I also used Judy in my alterations and they came out PERFECT! I still can't believe how beautiful my bustle came out. At my final fitting one of the strings came loose so she sent me home, fixed the strings then dropped the dress off at my house! It was so unreal.

Judy understands the industry and what's always trendy.

She's amazing and i would recommend her to EVERYONE!

Something that was impressed even before i visit the store was amazingly quick response to my email. Judy always replied my emails so quickly all the time. This is something I don't get often in this country...lol

I had felt little disappointed according to her store policy, but she explained to me why and I have got to email back and forth like everyday! Also, she answered very nicely to many of my silly questions, since I am a kind of person who need to know what is happen next or how things I should do... so i could suck it up with 100% understanding and go forward with 100% no doubt. This was also i didn't expect and I have no idea how she finds even a chance to reply emails with her super tight booking schedule.. but she dose somehow...:D

To pick a dress, she gave me helpful, honest opinions. I felt that was really honest.. not like one of those "sales talk" or "just saying" sort of opinions. It was sooo hard to pick one dress from 8 or 9 dresses that i tried on.. Dresses in the store were very pretty... She was also very helpful with my budget.

By the time I picked the dress, I felt that Judy is the only one that i can entrust my dress to. Even though it was a super short notice (when I visited to her shop first time was less than a month before the wedding day!), Judy did more than wonderful alteration. I was soooooooo happy with my dress and I still am! I love my dress. I think my dress is the best!:D (probably every single Judy's brides thinks so too:) )

I can't thank Judy enough for all the hard work to my dress.
There is no doubt that Judy works so hard to make her brides happy and look stunning...

This shop is great, I went to five bridal salons prior to going here and I wasn't finding anything I liked. I showed the ladies at The Bridal Secret a picture that I thought I wanted my dress to look like but they pulled a Pronovias designer dress that I loved. It is so pretty and different and unlike any other dress that I had tried on. They knew what would look good on me and were very honest. Judy (the shop owner) takes pride in her shop and you can tell. When we went in the winter, we had to take off our shoes and another time when we were early for an appointment, she had us grab coffee so she could focus on her bride. My wedding day I received so many compliments and everyone was asking where I found my dress. Can't say enough about this shop, I am so happy I found this place!!!

Judy, owner of the Bridal Secret and alteration magician, was absolutely a pleasure to work with - she is so passionate about finding the right dress for every bride and makes each and every one of us feel special up until the days before the wedding. Judy was always on top of her appointments for fittings and did an amazing job altering my dress 2 sizes down, hemming it to look like it was made for me, and most of all, crafting the GORGEOUS French bustle (which she specializes in). I got so many compliments and owe it all to Judy - thank you!!

Judy is great. She even helped my mom find her MOB outfit by linking us up with a friend of her's who works at Neiman Marcus. My dress was amazing. I got a ton of compliments, it was reasonable, and Judy's alterations were perfect! She even packed the dress for me and set me up with a place to have my dress pressed when I arrived at my destination for the wedding (California). She is the best! She's very lively, so wedding dress shopping will be fun, and she is definitely willing to give you her opinion on anything if you ask for it!

What an incredible find, I'm so lucky I went there! They were so professional and helpful, and the owner works directly with you to find the best option for your body type and style, and to make it find flawlessly. I wasn't sure if they'd laugh at my budget but instead they found something below it! It was the dress of my dreams. Something I wouldn't have pictured initially but once I tried it on and met with them I knew I had no need to go to other stores. It was a little ways away for me to travel, but I would have driven much farther for it! Everyone on my wedding day complimented the dress and how I looked in it, I felt like a princess, and I'm forever grateful!

I found a wedding dress that was perfectly suited for me at The Bridal Secret and Judy did a fantastic job on the alterations! I was so happy with my experience and would definitely recommend !

Judy, owner of The Bridal Secret, is phenomenal.

I did not purchase my dress through Judy, but she altered a wedding dress I already had - and it needed quite a number of alterations! I also purchased my veil through Judy.

I feel like I simply can't put into words how amazing Judy's work is and how great she is as a person. Judy found a way to magically alter my too tight dress so that if fit perfectly and beautifully. She also provided guidance on the style of veil that would complement my gown. And, as a surprise extra, she sewed a gorgeous blue crystal bead into the bodice of my dress for my "something blue."

In the two weeks before my wedding, my father had been hospitalized. Judy learned this during one of my fitting appointments and made it a point to call and email me several times to see how he was progressing. She is just a genuine good person, who happens to have an amazing talent!

If you are looking for a gorgeous, affordable dress, or if you already have a vintage dress that needs alterations, call Judy first! You will not be dissapointed.

Judy is number one! It truly is, a hidden gem and I feel as though, I wish I could do more than just highly recommend The Bridal Secret. Wonderful boutique, gorgeous dress selections, veils and jewelry at reasonable prices. Extremely helpful, courteous, thorough, honest and trustworthy. I felt like I had known her for a lifetime. Her years of experience, utmost professionalism & bridal alteration skills are bar none! And she has a great sense of humor. She made my life so much easier during the hectic and stressful, wedding planning process. I am so ecstatic I found her and want to shout it out from the roof tops! Save yourself the hassle & frustration and go straight to the very best who will take care of you and will go above and beyond your expectations to make sure you are happy and satisfied. I can say this with confidence because she did. Make an appointment with The Bridal Secret. It will be the best decision you ever made and be at peace. Check that off the list!

The Bridal Secret is AMAZING ! Judy , the owner,is THE DRESS WHISPERER - She was born to do this job and she gives it her all - From the moment I called to make my first appointment she was so full of excitement and enthusiasm - She just loves what she does. When I came into the store for the first time with my mom, mother in law and Aunt I had no idea what I was looking for - Judy picked the dress that was perfect for my body type and it was like she had known me for years - she just picked the dress of my dreams ! My wedding was amazing because I felt comfortable and beautiful thanks to Judy -
The dress was affordable but people believed we paid a fortune because of how elegant and delicately made it was - I cant believe that I had such a gorgeous dress - even when I look at my pictures now I am like " is that me ? Who is that girl in the AMAZING dress?"
I could not thank Judy and her wonderful staff enough - This store is a hidden Gem and Judy is just unbelievable - no one can walk out of her store without the dress of their dreams ! Its just impossible ! Good luck to all the brides out there - you will be so lucky to work with The Bridal Secret !

Working with Judy was great. Our wedding was in Jamaica and we were able to find several options perfect for the beach. The dress I fell in love with was something that looked like it cost 4 times more than it did. The quality of the dress was amazing and Judy's alterations made the dress form to me beautifully. I was nervous traveling with such a special piece and Judy gave me confidence and guidance to ensure everything arrived perfectly. She has years and too many dresses to count full of experience and I highly suggest working with her if you are interested in finding something of the highest quality, but at a great price.

I went to the bridal secret 2 weeks after I got engaged - I knew I did not want to go to a department store and try on gowns 5 sizes too big and then have to order the gown and risk it not being right. I found the Bridal Secret on google and thought it was perfect for what I wanted. I went with my sister, my mother and my mother in law - Judy had known right away what gown would look the best on me! I tried on maybe 6 gowns and then she pulled out the dress of my dreams. I felt so amazing in it! Buying a wedding gown is so difficult, Judy did not push too hard but gently guided me into this huge purchase. I never doubted that the gown was the right one. Brides do not torture yourselves - you do not have to try on 100 gowns in order for it to be the perfect choice! Thank you Judy and the bridal secret!

Pleasure to do business with. great prices and selection

Judy was very helpful and quick. My wedding was in 3 months and Judy managed to help me find a dress and did all the fittings before then. I gave her a curveball in the middle of the whole thing too. I announced to her that I was pregnant during my 2nd fitting so she had to undo everything she did and adjusted everytime I grew more. She was very understanding and accommodated my change professionally and I was able to walk down the aisle beautifully with my baby hidden. Judy is FABULOUS!!!! <3 She totally made my wedding dress experience stressfree (even though I'm sure I placed a lot of it on her)!!! I have already and will continue to recommend Judy to all my friends!

After searching at 3 other bridal shops in the Boston area, I had just about given up on finding a dress that would fit with my Florida beach wedding. The ladies ad The Bridal Secret were so helpful. They pulled gowns that fit my style and fit me! It was so refreshing. We had a great experience with The Bridal Secret and would definitely recommend them to anyone needing a wedding gown.

The Bridal Secret was the best experience. Very professional, clearly experienced, reasonable and great selection. I would recommend anyone who is ready to find their perfect wedding gown to go here. From the alterations to the cleaning and fittings everything went very smooth. Judy rocks!

Judy has a great little hidden gem of a shop . . .& she has the talent to match you up with the perfect gem of a dress! This was the 2nd place I had shopped for a dress . . . I wanted something unique, not the every day run-of-the-mill dress. We all have our own idea of what we are looking for . . . so when I had picked what I thought was the right dress for me, Judy goes to the back of the shop & grabs a dress that I had not seen while I was there & asks if I would just try it on. Well, I tried it on & the rest is history! It was so "me"! Everyone that saw me in that dress raved about it's color, unique style & how it was just made for me. And it was comfortable! In my opinion, it was the best wedding dress I ever laid eyes on & that's what I think every bride would like to experience! Judy made that possible for me. Thank you Judy! Last but not least, I do plan to wear this dress again . . . at the Academy Awards someday!

Judy was amazing! I went to three other bridal boutiques and did not receive the high quality customer service that I received at the Bridal Secret. The staff was honest, responsive and very honest in answering my many questions. I recommend the Bridal Secret to every bride I meet!

ATTENTION ALL BRIDES!!!!! The Bridal Secret should be your first stop and I assure you it will be your last stop.

I had placed a rush order for my wedding gown from a shop that did not do alterations. I didn't have the slightest idea who I would trust to alter my expensive designer gown and be able to work with my timeline of just 3 weeks. I had heard great things about The Bridal Secret and just by chance I had the chance to meet Judy through a mutual friend.

Judy was very accommodating and extremely flexible with booking alteration appointments with me especially since we were waiting everyday for my dress to arrive.

It became very clear to during my first appointment with Judy what kind of professional I was working with. Although my dress was beautiful, it came 2 sizes too big and it was almost as if it wasn't for me when I first put it on.... but Judy changed that!!! Her 18+ years of experience in the bridal industry and with alterations showed. I knew immediately she was someone I could trust. She was very honest with me and that in turn allowed me to be very honest with her about what I liked or what I didn't like.

I will never forget my second fitting...this was when I saw her vision coming together. JUDY ROCKS BUSTLES!!!!! My bustle was so elegant and just swayed when ever I moved or walked. Not to mention she made it so simple for my bridesmaids to bustle my dress.

She took care of my something blue and my something old at the same time by sewing a blue crystal from an older vintage gown she had in her shop onto my dress. It was so unique and just another one of Judy's personal touches.

Another thing is that I was a busty bride and the challenge for Judy was making sure I didn't look too busty in my dress. She heard my concern and was very patient with me. Because of her experience with alterations we were able to try different options until I was completely satisfied. Judy actually had me come back to the store later on that afternoon (after she had a day full of fittings and when she could have been at home). She & I were the only ones in her shop and she did this so that she could give me her undivided attention. By the end of my second fitting she perfected and personalized my gown.

Also during my second fitting, I first tried my dress on with a veil that I had purchased elsewhere. It was nice but no wow factor. Then Judy suggested trying on a longer veil and allowed me to try on one her custom made veils... my jaw dropped. I finally saw the WOW factor. Her custom made veil completed everything. So much so I returned my original veil and purchased a custom made veil from Judy.

Like she does for so many brides she was there to watch me walk down the aisle which meant the world to me. You cannot put a price on that. There is no one else out there like Judy. I assure you, there is not other shop out there that can offer the experience, level of expertise, professionalism and personal touches as The Bridal Secret.

If you want to look like every other bride, if you want to be just a number or someones commission and if you want to bring a huge entourage of people who will only overwhelm you in the end.... then this place isn't for you.

If you want to find a one of a kind couture gown with reasonable prices on gowns, alterations and accessories AND if you want a unique and personal experience then shop at The Bridal Secret first!!! You will not regret it.

- A Satisfied Bride

excellent servie, great dresses. very personable staff. so glad i went there, recommending it to all!

I cannot say enough wonderful things about The Bridal Secret and Judy, the owner. I ended up here on a friend's recommendation, after searching several area shops. I had some idea of what I was looking for, but nothing concrete. I was amazed with the selection that the store offered. Be advised that this is not your typical shop, where you pick a gown and it is ordered for you, this is an off the rack sale. That being said, it is best to have some clue of what you want, and also to be ready to purchase that day if possible. The gowns are not samples and have never been worn and I got mine for at least 50% less than I might have paid elsewhere. It was a Casablanca gown that was from last season (2008-2009).

Long story short, I found my dream dress on my first trip in (I actually found many that I loved there!) Judy was incredible to work with. She knows the business inside and out. She is able to help you in recommending other vendors as well, not just those in the wedding dress field. She is very selective about who she will recommend and is also very blunt and honest, which I appreciated. She also does alterations and her prices are very reasonable.

Lastly, the finishing touch, Judy never makes you feel like just another bride. If you are willing, she really establishes a relatonship with you and shows genuine interest in your wedding. She actually came to the church to see me (and the dress!) walk down the aisle. I know I am not the only bride she has done this for, but I think it shows her commitment to her craft and her customers.

Judy was fabulous to work with!!! The first dress I tried on I fell in love with and within moments she was helping to add the appropriate accessories that went perfect with the dress and my wedding day. She truly makes it all about the bride, which is the way it should be. Both my sister and I bought our dresses from The Bridal Secret and we, without hesitation, recommend any future brides to check it out. You won't be disappointed!!!

Of every person I worked with in planning my wedding, Judy was by far my favorite! From my first appointment picking out my dress, to all four dress fittings and picking up my dress the day before the wedding, Judy made every minute of the experience awesome. She put up with the 10 people I would bring to my appointments to make sure I still loved my dress in the months after I bought it, and always made sure that everything was what I wanted, and not the opinion of the huge groups I would bring! The dress was the most gorgeous dress I have ever seen, the alterations were so perfect, Judy made it look like the dress was made for my body, and the veil she hand embroided with what was taken off the hem of my dress was so perfect it made everyone in the room cry!!

In addition to the wonderful experience I had at The Bridal Secret, the prices were right, I found a gorgeous flower hair piece for later in the night when I wanted to take my veil off, and she has gorgeous jewelery!!

I cannot thank Judy enough for making me feel like the most perfect bride for my wedding day!! She is truly the BEST!!

I had a wonderful experience with Judy, She is honest and straight to the point. She didn't try and sell me something that I couldn't afford and she helped me pick something that was affordable and amazing. She was able to add special touches to my dress, and knew just what I would like. She was also able to help me with the alterations on my wife's suit for the wedding. She was very helpful and accommodating. She was also very talented, she was able to take a dress that was a size ten all the way down to a size one to fit my little 100lb 4'11 frame. She did great and I wish I could relive the whole experience again.

I've been going to Judy at The Bridal Secret for bridesmaid dress alterations for the past ten years and this year I finally had the pleasure of shopping for my own wedding gown!! Judy's shop was my first and only stop for my wedding gown!! Judy is amazing!! Her work and attention to detail are unbelievable!! Judy tells you like it is and doesn't try to coax you into something you don't like or something that doesn't look good!! My dress was absolutely gorgeous and I felt amazing in it!!

From the very first email with Judy to the last fitting, I was so pleased with the Bridal Secret. Definitely go here to found your gown, and your alterations, she does an amazing job!

Judy is amazing!! After a bad experience at the place I bought my dress, I went to her. She made my dress beyond beautiful. I have seen busseling done that ruined the look of a dress... my dress looked better busseled then it did with the long train. Not only that, but it was SO EASY for my bridesmaids to do. Her confidence and great attitude make you feel comfortable the second you walk in.

I absolutely LOVED my wedding dress from the Bridal Secret. Judy is extremely nice and helpful. She offered an honest opinion on all the dresses I tried on. Judy actually suggested the dress that I ended up buying. I wasn't planning on trying it on and then I fell in love with it! The price was very reasonable and my friends don't believe me when I tell them what I payed for the dress! I highly recommend that all brides-to-be check out the Bridal Secret. I had a wonderful experience there!

Judy, you are absolutely fabulous!! I am so glad I found you on Wedding Wire. My dress came out absolutely gorgeous! You rocked that bustle!! :-) Your level of professionalism was impeccable. You are so confident in what you do and it shines through in your beautiful work. I can't thank you enough for all that you did.

Love Judy!!!! I bought one dress from her, and had her alter my other dress and they both came out amazing.

Judy and the Bridal Secret were amazing!!! Not only did I find a beautiful dress, but Judy is a very talented seamstress, in addition to running a wonderful store. She was able to alter it down 4 or so sizes and it fit like a glove. She also made my hair piece and veil. I got so my compliments on my hair piece, it turned out so beautiful! Not to mention her prices were great. In addition to all this, she was very thoughtful, accommodating, and caring, but I always felt she gave me honest opinions. I couldn't have gotten my dress from a better place. Every bride should go to Bridal Secret!!

Judy Judy Judy!! She is the most amazing and caring seamstress I've ever met. I had purchased my dress from a sample sale at Kleinfeld in NY -- it was too long and too big and needed a lot of altering to fit my body, but I really loved it, and the salespeople at Kleinfeld made it seem like it would be really easy to alter. Just to describe my dress--it was beaded with swarovski crystals from head to toe, sweatheart neckline, mermaid style, with a corset lacing up the back. Since I live in Boston, I first checked out the most highly rated wedding alterations place in Boston, and was really displeased with my experience. The seamstresses there made it seem like my dress would be an impossible project to fix -- they said because of all the beading, it would be too hard to alter. While the corset was supposed to form a V-shape in the back, they recommended just tightening the corset all the way (no more V) rather than taking the dress in from the sides. All they would do was shorten the hem (by just folding it under) and taking the hips in a few inches. With these slight alterations, they were still going to charge me a fortune. While I thought about giving in, I got annoyed when the seamstresses there were stepping on my gown as they pinned me up. I decided to look elsewhere -- and that's when I stumbled upon The Bridal Secret and Judy -- my wedding lifesaver!! Judy is everything these reviews say she is. I would give her more than 5 stars if I could! I could tell she knew exactly what she was doing as soon as I walked into her store for my first fitting. She took some quick measurements and told me everything would be perfect. Unlike the other seamstress, Judy immediately said she would have to take my dress in from the sides/waist area to preserve the V-shaped corset. She also knew exactly what to do with hips, hem, and bustle. And she even offered to sew in breast cups for me with no charge. And all of this came down to a much better price than the other place had quoted me. From my first fitting to my very last, Judy was super efficient, always on time, and reminded me of my appointments each time. She is a perfectionist, and that is super important quality to find in any wedding vendor, especially your seamstress. Even for my French bustle, she drew a diagram so I would know how to bustle it (my MOH and wedding party were from out of town). And for each bustle tie, she numbered them so that it would be easy to know which tie goes with which. She even attached a row of pins to my dress in case one of the ties breaks during dancing. She even gave me instructions on packing my gown and pressing my gown for my destination wedding. And when it was all done, she gave me a cute little keepsake box with the extra fabric and crystal beads from my wedding gown alterations. While I was one of those really hesitant, nervous brides, Judy calmed me down every step of the way and even helped me pick out a perfect headpiece and hair style to match my gown. Needless to say, my dress fit me perfectly from head to toe. It couldn't have been more perfect. I love my dress so much now that I really don't want to sell it! She was also really sweet in following up with me after the wedding to see how everything went. She is just an amazing person overall. I recommend her services with all my heart -- if you live in Boston, it is worth the trek.

I went to The Bridal Secret in Quincy to have my dress altered, and met Judy, the owner of the shop. She is absolutely one of the best in the business, and I couldn't believe how she brought my dress from beautiful to absolutely amazingly stunning. She also has great dresses and jewelry in her shop, so if you’re looking for your dress still, definitely stop in. It’s a one stop shop that will take the stress out of finding the perfect dress. If you have your dress, Judy does alterations too, and if you want it done absolutely perfect, she is the girl to go see. Visit her website for more info and pictures of the past brides.

This shop has so many options for dresses its crazy! i highly reccomden this shop to anybody.

My wedding date was 2/6/2010 and I am a little late with my review! Life just takes off after marriage! ;-) I have to tell you that Judy at The Bridal Secret is amazing, down to earth, professional and incredibly talented!!! I had searched around online for dress alterations for my wedding gown and every place I found was so needlessly expensive! I was so pleased when I found Judy and was so relieved when her prices were reasonable and fair! She was able to alter my dress down, put in a bustle and made my wedding veil!!! I also purchased a tiara from her and she cleaned and shined it before giving it to me. When I picked up my dress she even had a little special gift for me.....a little blue flower hair jewel to put in my hair for the big day! Not only were her prices reasonable but her spectacular service and PERSONAL touch won me over!!! I don't believe that you will find that at places like David's Bridal or other big chains. I guarantee that you will not be disappointed with her service! Thank you Judy for helping to make me feel like the princess that I was on my wedding day! My husband said that when he was waiting for me to walk down the aisle he had so much anxiety and then as soon as he saw my walking down the aisle it all went away and he was so happy and that I was so beautiful!!! :-)

Before I even went to the Bridal Secret, I knew I would find my dress here. I had done a lot of research and I knew this was the place. The selection is outstanding! And Judy is a true professional. She knows brides and she knows her dresses. The quality of couture gowns for the price is beyond belief. My sister-in-law is a fashion designer and was impressed by the detail and workmanship in my gown. When I told her the price, her jaw dropped. Judy is fun to work with and makes you feel so special. She has the expertise to guide you, but also allows you the space to make your own decisions.

When my husband saw me on our wedding day, the first thing he said was "you look beautiful". The second thing he said was "your dress is perfect"! And it was! So much so that I wore it the next day to our post wedding brunch. I loved being a bride and I absolutely loved my dress!

If you are looking for a wedding gown, go to the Bridal Secret in Quincy. You will be more than satisfied!

The bridal secret is quaint little shop with great variety, range of prices, helpful personnel.
Judy was amazing!
very knowledgeable and helpful, came to my church to help prep before walking down the aisle, sized my dress multiple times as stress took away my extra weight,....great lady overall!
Have already recommended her to multiple brides to be :)

Talk about personal service! The Bridal Secret felt like being in the comfort of my home with amazing dresses surrounding me everywhere.
Judy is someone who listens to her clients, offers suggestions and has a keen eye for that unique, one-of-a-kind touch.
You Will Not Be Disappointed!

Sincerely,
Ann B.- a/k/a Valuing Personal Customer Service!

I highly recommend The Bridal Secret to any bride who is not only looking for the perfect dress, but also the perfect dress-finding-and-alteration experience. The owner Judy is a godsend. As the shop works by appointment only, Judy gives you her full attention. She patiently helped me try on several dresses, offering a seamless blend of reassurance and honesty.
I wear a size 0 short, and have always considered shopping for formal dresses a huge chore due to my limited options. Not so at The Bridal Secret - due to Judy's master tailoring skills, I had permission to try on any dress in the store! When I did find "the one," it was enormous, maybe a size 12. And this was a complex dress, we're talking layers upon layers of heavy, champagne-colored satin, with several inches piled around my feet. Judy was unfazed - in two fittings, the dress fit me like a glove. I don't know how she did it.
The dress was stunning. It was exactly the kind of dress I secretly coveted in bridal magazines, but had ruled out given its out-of-the-question $4-7,000-price tag. At The Bridal Secret, the dress cost a fraction of the price. It was well within my budget, and I was thrilled.
The fittings were a breeze - I was in and out in 20 minutes tops. Judy has been doing this for 18 years and is a consummate professional. Scheduling appointments, whether by phone or email was also extremely easy, as Judy was always flexible and responded immediately.
Finally, the dress aside, Judy is a fount of information when it comes to other aspects of the wedding process. I had just moved to the Boston-area and was grateful for her recommendations for a photographer, a tux-rental place, and a store to find rehearsal-dinner dresses. She even put me in touch with a personal shopper at Neiman Marcus who helped my mom find a gorgeous mother-of-the-bride dress.
Judy is a gem. I truly enjoyed my experience working with her, and highly recommend her to any bride-to-be.

I am so happy i found this place. When i first went out looking for dresses with my mom, I stumbled up this place. I foudn a great dress there but my mom convinved me to go another route.. Davids Bridal gown. Well that was a huge mistake.. lets just say the dress was compelted screwed up. So 4 months before the wedding I was dress-less and had to start over. I called Judy to schedule an appt. She completely remembered me. She and her staff could not have been more helpful. Even when I freaked out about the dress i had chosen.. they reassurred me and helped me out. I can not say enough about the place. I am only sad I don't need another dress...

Judy was an abolsute pleasure to work with! She has a beautiful growns in a wide range of styles, sizes, and prices. Judy is extremely attentive to her brides and books individual appointments so you have the whole store to yourself! She does all the alterations herself at a very reasonable price. I would highly recommend calling Judy to schedule an appointment!

I truly believe I was fortunate to find this place. I was not looking forward to searching and trying on dresses because I'm sooooo indecisive as it is. The owner Judy is amazing and knows her stuff. She will tell you what looks good and what doesn't and she may even suggest a dress that you think wouldn't look good but it does. I was looking for a particular type of dress with rueshing to camouflage the abdomen area and she had lots of those to try on. After trying those on, she brought out a dress without the reushing and wanted me to try it. It was gorgeous but I was still thinking it wasn't going to look good on me. When I tried it on...WOW..I couldn't believe it was really me! It took my breath away! That was the dress. She has many dresses in many sizes and they are all gorgeous. You will have her attention 100% as she is by appointment only. Judy did my alteration and it fit like a glove. She went above and beyond as far as I'm concerned.

My daughter and I went to several other bridal shops before going to The Bridal Secret. Judy had a great variety of dresses well within our budget. In fact, the dress my daughter bought was less than half of what we had seen at another shop. Judy fit the dress perfectly and was very attentive to the details of the dress. We got a great value for a very beautiful dress.

Although I swore I wouldn't, I ended up purchasing a dress from David's (I really liked it and hate shopping, so I figured what the heck ?). The girl at the store told me I needed to order a size 2 regular (I wear 0 short) and of course it was to large in pretty much every part of my body. I found the Bridal Secret on wedding wire and was totally impressed by the great reviews, and I happen to work about 2 minutes away from the shop, so I figured I would check it out.
Judy definately lived up to her reviews! After speaking with her on the phone, she asked me to send a picture of the dress so she could get a better idea of what alterations were needed before I came in. She was extremely flexible with my schedule, meeting me early in the morning before the official store hours for alterations. Judy took great care in fitting me, from waiting patiently while I went back and forth trying different cup sizes to be sewn in because I couldn't decide which ones felt/looked best, to hand-cutting the lace overlay while I was wearing the dress to ensure it was the perfect length for me (I am 4'11), and creating a perfect, "real" bussle for my 2-layer dress - a huge improvement from the pin-it-under-with-one-button thing david's wanted to do. She also created a beautiful hand-made veil (also measured & cut to size) for me that went perfectly with my dress!
I can't recommend Judy enough - she is professional, talented, detail-oriented, and clearly passionate about her work. Judy is honest with her pricing and does a fantastic job - definately money well spent! I was vey happy with the overall experience and will be returning to the Bridal Secret to have my dress cleaned & presereved.

Oh where do I begin? :) Let me just say that Judy (the owner) knows her customers and business extremely well! Believe it or not, she picked out THE dress for me just based on my quick 5 minute phone conversation with her. Before we hung up, she told me that she had the perfect dress for me. I, of course, didn't quite believe it at first, but on the day of my appointment and after trying on the 5 dresses I picked out, she brought out the dress she had saved for me and it was PERFECT! She definitely saved the best for last! She went above and beyond for me and I am still very touched by her kindness and superb level of customer service. I had some last minute changes to my wedding plans and was getting married 3 months earlier than what I had told her previously. With just less than 2 months to go, she quickly squeezed me in for my fittings and I could not be happier with how my dress turned out. She did an awesome job picking out the dress for me and altering it to make the dress mine. I am truly grateful that I found Judy and The Bridal Secret and will recommend her to anyone without any hesitation! Come in with an open mind and you may walk out with THE dress of your dreams! Thank you SOOOO much again, Judy! I wish you the best!

I can't not say enough great things about Judy and her store. I tried on a 100 dresses and went to about 10 diffferent stores before going to hers. Out of all the stores, hers was the one......and her service and advice is incredible!!!! I loved everything, the service, the gown, the veil (handmade), the pin I bought for my hair, the prices.....everything!!!!

Judy (the owner) and her staff Donna and Jill provided me with one on one individualized attention tailored not only to the style of gown that I wanted, but also ensuring that I remained within my pre stated budget. Bridal Secret was the second bridal shop that I had shopped in. There was a wide range of selections which in turn limited the gown shopping process to a matter of a few weeks, rather than the typical prolonged, stressful shopping trips that most brides experience. It was evident that Judy and her staff are not only dedicated to the business, but also to their clients. While the process was seamless from start to finish, there was a minor mishap with the dry cleaning and given that I live in CT, Judy promptly addressed the issue and even went to the extent of driving the gown personally to me in CT. My wedding was a great success and my husband family and friends are still raving at how gorgeous I looked! Thank you to Bridal Secret for helping me achieve the look that I wanted for my special day!!

The experience was wonderful. She made my day as special as she could and treated me with the utmost respect. I would gladly recommend her to any of my family and friends.

This place is great if you are a no-frills bride who is looking for some honest support and reliability. It's great to be able to try dresses on in your size and then see them put it in a bag for you and into storage! They also do alterations and will store your dress leading up to the wedding.
They have a great selection that is constantly changing and the prices can't be beat!

Judy at the Bridal Secret was fabulous to work with. I could not have been more pleased by her enthusiasm, knowledge, and incredible values in her store. She took care of all of the alterations herself and an amazing job. I would recommend the Bridal Secret to any engaged girl who wants to look unique and beautiful on her wedding day!

Judy from the bridal secret made searching for a wedding dress so much fun! Her knowledge and experience is very apparent and she does amazing alterations. She was very friendly, funny, helpful and willing to do whatever she could to make my dress exactly how I wanted it. She doesn�t sugar coat anything to just make the sell, she will give you her honest opinion which I think is so valuable. I would highly recommend starting at the bridal secret when you are ready to begin shopping.

Judy does everything in her power to make your special day wonderful. The dress was perfect. The hand made veil completed everything. She even dealt with my mother well :) Thanks Judy!

Meeting the owner Judy of The Bridal Secret was one of the best things that could have happened to me while planning my wedding. I had only six weeks to plan everything, so I was just going to grab a quick, simple gown off of a rack somewhere. So many people referred me to Judy that I just had to see what she had. After I explained that we only had 6 weeks and my husband planned on wearing just a navy suit, she convinced me that I shouldn't sell my self short based only on a time restraint. After being in her shop with her assistant Jill for only a half hour, I was standing in the most beautiful and stunning gown I could have ever imagined...and I didn't even pick it out! Judy's assistant Jill picked it out for me based on my figure. I probably would have overlooked it, but Jill and Judy new EXACTLY what would look good on my shape. After 1 minute I was sold. I left the shop that day feeling more than thrilled and I can honestly say that my experience at The Bridal Secret made the way I felt on my wedding day that much more special.

Judy made buying a wedding dress fun and easy! She has such a wide variety of styles, sizes and prices and you're bound to find something you like. Judy is very honest and is very helpful when it comes to deciding on a dress. She is very attentive and cleary loves her job. She does fabulous alterations and has a pretty flexible schedule when it comes to appointments. I was lucky enough to have my ceremony at a local church and Judy actually came and helped me with my dress and veil before walking down the aisle--I thought that was an amazing personal touch.

I would highly recommend Judy at the Bridal Secret for her enthusiasm, knowledge and kindness...

While I didn't purchase my gown from Judy, I would never hesitate to recommend her incredible selection of gowns to anyone. This review is to praise her for her alterations work and priceless knowledge of the industry. I have been going to Judy for alterations of multiple bridesmaid dresses since I moved to Boston back in 2004, and will continue to send her business and give her mine whenever the opportunity arises. Not only is she a magician with hemming, tapering and bustles, but she has a true passion and emotional involvement with each of her brides. I've joked that she needs to start a blog with all the knowledge and advice she has. One gem she shared with me was to throw my slip dress (not poofy) into my honeymoon luggage and wear it while walking on the beach. My husband and I had so much fun goofing off on the beach, and got some very fun candids taken by passers-by, eager to talk to us and admire my dress. She helped me choose the right jewelry and hair accessories and created a beautiful veil which met my expectations (even though she didn't have a pre-made one in stock, she listened to what I wanted and made it from scratch). All of this for an extremely good price and at just the right deadlines (even helped me pack my dress into my suitcase for my TN wedding). I highly recommend her!

I was travelling from out of state and Judy was exceptional in helping me work through the logistics of fittings and final pickup.

Judy at the Bridal Secret is phenomenal. My dress was absolutely amazing. I couldn't have asked for a better place. Everyone there was always extremely friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend the Bridal Secret

I had been to numerous stores all over the Boston area and couldnt find a dress until I came to Judy at the Bridal secret !!! She is just fantastic , I had the pick of 3 dresses that day it really was a hard call , but in the end I LOVED the dress I finally did pick,

For me I loved the one to one, judy wasnt dealing with another bride while she was with me and i felt that was so important ,her staff are also so friendly and willing to help.

Judy did my alterations and believe me you dont getting leaving with your dress until everything is just right I got so many comments on my dress its unreal!!! You wont be disappointed at Bridal Secret....

The Bridal Secret has a great selection of well-known dresses without the cost. Judy is helpful and great with alterations. I had a lovely experience.

I got my wedding dress from The Bridal Secret and the entire experience was amazing. Judy was very knowledgeable and friendly. The prices were very good since this is an off the rack shop. I highly recommend The Bridal Secret to future brides.

Judy was wonderful! She is very talented at her job! I walked into her store with an idea of what I wanted and left with the most perfect dress for me. I described what i wanted, she took a look at me and within minutes had several dresses for me to try on. I bought my dress that day and she took care of the rest. What a wonderful experience! I Highly recommend the Bridal Secret to all Brides!!!!!!

After ordering my dress at Kleinfeld Bridal in NYC, I had a horror show of a time with alterations being that they were so ridiculously expensive. It was obvious that once you've purchased, they could care less about how you feel or look in your dress. I found The Bridal Secret in my local search and Judy, the owner, immediately rose to the occasion to help make my dress perfect.

After three fittings, (all conveniently arranged around my work schedule) she knew exactly what needed to be done and how to make me feel like a bride, especially her work with designing and sewing in my bustle. I was kicking myself for not purchasing a dress from her because they are gorgeous dresses at moderate prices.

After all of the alterations, pressing the dress prior to the wedding and then post wedding dry cleaning combined, still cost me about 1/3 of what other dress shops were charging in NY and Boston.

I recommend that any bride in any type situation visit the Bridal Secret!

I had a great experience at the Bridal Secret. I called on a Wednesday and had an appointment for the Saturday of the same week. Judy's staff was very helpful pulling dresses for me as well as letting me look through her selection to make my own style choices. I had tried on about 5 great dresses before finding the "one"! I absolutely LOVED my dress and wouldn’t have found it if it weren’t for Judy asking me to try something a little different from the styles I was choosing. I couldn’t have chose a more beautiful dress, the color was different and made the dress so original and the style fit my body type perfectly! And to make it even better the dress was VERY affordable and under my budget which was great!! My fitting appointments were so easy to make and Judy worked around my schedule of needing Saturday AM appointments. My dress came out gorgeous once it was fitted and pressed. I couldn’t be happier with my selection and the look on my husband's face when he saw me was priceless! I would highly recommend the Bridal Secret to anyone looking for beautiful, designer dresses at a very affordable cost.

This store is a MUST for all brides! The gowns are breath taking, whether you're looking for simple elegance or gorgeous beading, you will find something! Not only will you find a couture gown, you'll find something in your budget. Thats right, I'm a budget bride with high-end taste. So, you'll find a dress...what about the service? If they gave me an option for more stars..I'd choose them all! Judy is amazing. Her expertise in wedding fashion and alterations helps you truly visualize what's on the rack...to what walks down the aisle. Basically, its a no-brainer...you have to check out Bridal Secret!

I got married just about a year ago (Nov, 2008) and this shop was recommended to me by a co-worker who had a fabulous experience there - and I am so grateful for the referral! Judy (and her staff) made me, my mom, and sister all feel welcome from the moment we stepped into the store. The selection of dresses is amazing and they are all unique - not to mention an incredible value. The day of my appointment, Judy (even though she wasn't the one actually helping me) noticed the styles I liked/didn't like and ended up finding "THE ONE" for me, herself. All my subsequent dealings with Judy and The Bridal Secret - the fittings, veil, jewelry, etc. - were wonderful, too. Judy is professional, courteous, caring, and she just plain "knows her stuff"! If you are looking for the perfect dress, I would highly recommend making an appointment to stop by the Bridal Secret.

I didn't get my dress from Judy, but she did my alterations (which I'm a little sorry about, because it looked like she had a fabulous and reasonably priced collection). For the most part, I really liked her, and I thought the alterations, especially the bustle, looked fabulous. I did have a couple of complaints though. I had my first fitting about 2.5 months before my wedding, and then went in for my second fitting a month later. I had lost about 5 lbs in between - and she acted like it was ridiculous and that changing my dress would be a huge chore; she'd clearly thought that she would be done after the second fitting. I'm sorry, but don't most brides lose weight?! Besides the attitude, I also had to pay another $100 on top of what I'd already paid - if I'd known that up front I would have preferred to only come in one more time closer to the wedding rather than two more times. Additionally, even though I didn't lose any more weight between my third (final) fitting and my wedding (and believe me, I checked!), my strapless dress was slipping down constantly and my bra is showing in a lot of the pictures. Anyway, I don't feel it was a fantastic deal for alterations...I thought she was decent but I'd look around elsewhere first and compare prices!

Judy at the Bridal Secret was absolutely fabulous! This was the first place I went to try on gowns and although I had not planned on buying a dress that day, I fell in love with the first dress I tried on!

Judy was a joy to deal with through the entire alteration process. She custom made my veil to perfectly match my dress.

Highly recommend the Bridal Secret to any bride trying to the THE perfect dress!

Judy was wonderful. Her dress selection was great. She let me try on all these dresses that I thought I would like and then at the end she gave me a dress that she picked out to try on. That was the one! She just knew. Totally professional and easy going. Mom my look at me after we meet with her the first time and said, Now that is a business women!

The dresses in this store are gorgeous. I had a designer dress that was actually "buyable" in Judy's store.

Judy is a no nonsense seamstress. She's going to tell you what works and what doesn't. She knows what she's talking about. I had so many compliments on my dress during my wedding, in addition to having an awestruck husband. (We kept the tradition of keeping the dress a secret from him until I arrived at the church.)

Judy did an outstanding job on my wedding dress. She helped me select a dress that was stunning, but one I might not have normally picked out on my own. Despite my rigid work schedule, Judy was able to get all of my fittings in, plus an extra one so she could address a concern I had. She would come into work early to make sure that my dress was right. In addition, she had some great suggestions for attendant dress shopping and for undergarment shopping. Finally, Judy sewed an additional piece of detail onto my dress, something definitely above and beyond what was required. She even let me keep my shoes at the store between fittings to make sure that I wouldn't forget them when I would come for my appointments.


Thanks Judy!

Buying my gown here was a no brainer. I got alot of attention and feedback on each dress I tried on. I never felt like I was being pressured to buy something. In fact, she encouraged me to take some time to think about my decision!

The dresses were beautiful...I looked for months and couldn't find the dress I wanted but I found it at the bridal secret!

As a vendor, I recommend all my "brides to be" to Judy, the owner of "The Bridal Secret". They adore her! My Wife went there for her wedding gown and had a wonderful experience. Judy is personal and professional. She makes every Bride feel like a princess, as every bride should. I've been told that during the dress search, "it was a relief to walk into her store because I felt Judy was going to find the perfect dress for my type!" My Brides and wife tell me that she has the most elegant gowns, and delivers a service like no other. When you go into Judy's store, she devotes all her time to you, for as long as you need. Judy will give you a one-on-one service that you will not get at any other bridal store!!
