Wedding Salon of Manhasset

I love love love my dress. I found my dress there on a tight budget but they really worked with me to get me what i wanted. I couldn't have asked for a more beautiful gown. I had parts custom made for me and it was just perfect. I wish i could wear my gown everyday.

I made appointments at only two wedding dress salons - The Wedding Salon of Manhasset and Kleinfelds and the first appointment was with the Wedding Salon. The quaintness of the salon was misleading because I assumed they would have only a few dress selections and that I wouldnt find anything. THis is definitely not so as they have many gorgeous dresses and regardless of your personality or taste, they have a dress in their salon that will make you look like royalty. I walked in the Salon and I looked around and when my salesperson (Veronica - amazing!!!!) asked my what I was looking for, I gave her a vague idea because I was unsure. She allowed me to go through the salon (Vera Wang and main salon area) and pick dresses and she picked a few for me. The dress I picked was the 3rd dress I tried on and she was the one who picked it. The dress was so beautiful that I cancelled my appointment with Kleinfelds and never looked at another dress. What I loved about working with her is that she did not force her opinions on me and my thoughts and opinions guided the sale. She never asked me about my budget but I also noticed she never grabbed any outrageously priced dresses. I have heard many say that following the purchase of anything associated with their wedding, the service declined significantly. This was definitely not the case with the Wedding Salon and as I watched the faces of the brides who visited the salon, all of us left every visit at peace and excited to put our dress on again. The salon is filled with beautiful dresses and the seamstresses (mine was Kasey and she has magic hands) are all so amazingly talented and you will never have concerns about your dress being destroyed. I have never looked better than I did on my wedding day, in that dress. I know I only get married once but I am really trying to figure out how I can wear my dress again and again. The best feeling is knowing that if I had to do it all over again, I would still pick my dress because it was made exactly for me

helped me pick out beautiful bridesmaid dresses very different even came over the morning of the wedding to make sure the girls looked perfect...all the dresses were on time and beautiful!

My dress was absolutely gorgeous!! I loved it and so did all of my guests, the service there was excellent as well. Lana, my seamstress was so helpful and made sure I was 110% happy with all the alterations each time. Nancy was incredible attentive and such a pleasure to work with as well. Highly recomend this salon to ALL brides!!!

I had a super easy experience getting my wedding dress from here. Ever since I was little I would drive past the Wedding Salon hoping one day I would get my wedding dress from there, and I did! Everything was great and loved it all!

I had a wonderful experience with the team at Manhasset. They always made me feel special, and were very accommodating for appointments since I don't live in the area. The dress was absolutely STUNNING! My only complaint about my wedding day attire is that I can't wear it every day. Wedding Salon of Manhasset had the most beautiful collection, and I'm so pleased they were able to help me find the perfect dress.

I highly recommend the wedding salon of manhasset. I did not purchase my gown from them but I loved my expereince there. They have a great selection of dresses. The staff is amazing. They are so calm and just ready to please. I tried on about 20 dresses, I was there for about 2 1/2 hours and pretty much had the place to myself. No one was pushy at all. It was just a very relaxing experience. If I didn't purchase my dress in the city I would have definitely gone back there and made a purchase. They have a beautiful salon. Worth the trip into Long Island.

The Wedding Salon has an exquisite selection of wedding gowns in a variety of styles and designers. The shop itself has an elegant, relaxing atmosphere. It is a great place to shop for your gown. The service is friendly and attentive. My consultant was Rosemary and she could not have been sweeter or more patient. She was very honest with me and helped me in my selection of dresses. I ended up choosing the Pronovias Helio gown in a sample size with a matching cathedral veil. Months later, I returned for alterations. I was very nervous about this since my dress had to be taken in 4 sizes. However, my fears were unnecessary because my seamstress Julie did an amazing job. The dress fit perfectly and I had no issues with it at all. I also loved my beautiful cathedral veil. It matched my dress perfectly and made me feel very glamorous on the day of.

Everything was ready and delivered exactly when promised. Appointments were honored and punctual... service was VERY professional. However, there was really no personal touch. I didn't get the sense that they remembered me from visit to visit. Since I had bought my dress from a trunk sale, they didn't have a sample in to look at until my dress came in. I was shopping for headpieces (at other stores) before the dress was scheduled to come in, and I called to see if they could help me at all with a photo... or something. Honestly, they weren't terribly interested in helping me problem-solve; the response was, "All you can do is wait 'til your dress comes in." Not a huge deal but not exactly bending over backwards to be helpful either. They're very professional but not very warm. I didn't get the "your day is going to be SO special!" vibe. I generally felt like a number... one of 15 brides being serviced at any given time. And the manager (I think?) had snarky -almost rude- comments every time we were there.That said, Casey was a GREAT seamstress. She made me realize what a huge difference alterations can make. My dress fit like a glove.Overall, everything was pretty pricey. Expect to pay for highly professional but not very personal service.

Ultimately, my dress and veil were beautiful. However, I can't say that I was very impressed by Wedding Salon of Manhasset. First, when I purchased my dress in January, I was told it would arrive by early March, in plenty of time for my June wedding. When I checked back in late March, I was told that that was not correct -- that designer's dresses, I was now informed, took 4 months and would not be in until early May. Even in early May, only a month before my wedding, I was put off until mid-May, cutting things a bit close in my opinion. Throughout, I found their attitude to be strictly professional, in that they had very little to say to me beyond how much of a balance I still owed. I also had problems with the fittings. For some reason, the fitter took my dress in so much at the first fitting that it wouldn't close by 2 inches at the second fitting; she insisted I must have gained weight, which was completely untrue. And, despite the truly exorbitant amount they charge for fitting and bustling the dress, she also wanted to charge me $30 for pads to be placed into the bust of the dress that were completely unnecessary. Despite the fact that I ultimately had 4 fittings, on the day of the wedding, a pleat I had asked to have pressed down had not been, requiring my maid of honor to sew the dress on me right before the ceremony. And while the fitter had made sure the front of my bra snapped to the inside of the dress in the front to prevent it from riding up, she made no such provision for the back, so that my bra peeks out above the top of my dress in the back in several of my wedding photos. The bottom line is that I would not buy from this store again or recommend it to any of my friends.

I am sooo Happy I went to the Wedding Salon Of Manhasset to Purchase my Gown!!! At first, I was alittle hesitant because all of their dresses are High End, and I thought I wasn't going to be able to afford it. In June 2009, I first met with Charmaine, who is an absolute doll!!! She asked me my price range, and what type of dress i was looking for, i told her I wanted a ball gown, but I wasn't sure if i was going to afford any from the store. She told me she had a great dress for me to try on, but it might have been a little over what i was looking for. The dress was from Kenneth Pool, Aria. I tried it on, and felt absolutely in love with it, i started crying!! i felt like a princess! But when i looked at the tag, it was really over my budget, So i had to think about it and see if my mom was willing to help me pay for it. I must say, they really gave me an amazing price on the dress and I was soooo happy! They even gave me the veil that matched my dress! I was the most happiest person in the world. My dress came in on time like they said, all my appointments were great, I loved charmaine and my seamstress. My grandfather passed away 2 weeks before my wedding, and I went to them crying because i wasn't sure how i was going to get married after such a tragedy. They consoled me, hugged me, and that's somthing I will never forget. Please don't hesitate to come here, they are truly the best!

I had always planned on being a Kleinfeld bride, until I found the Wedding Salon. I went there as a fluke, to bring my grandmother who had been visiting from Florida to be a part of the dress shopping experience. It was the first Bridal shop I had ever went to. When I called to make the apointment I had mentioned particular dresses that I wanted to try (I did my research!). The owner called me personally to let me know which of the dresses they carried and which would come for a trunk show (wow!)
Fast forward to my appointment day (August 6): My appointment was a Friday morning so I had the salon all to myself!! My attendant was Rosemary, and let me tell you, she was FANTASTIC! I must have tried on over 30 dresses that day, Rosemary was so calm and kind, and really didn't try to push me into the sale at all. I must have been there 3 hours. After such a wonderful experience I knew that I had to get my dress there. I did select a dress and purchase the next time I went, which now looking back, I shouldn't have ordered so early (a year before my wedding it was ordered!) 2 1/2 months later I changed my mind on the gown and did a re-select. They were so amazing, Rosemary took me over to the Vera Wang boutique, which is part of the Wedding Salon (just with its own entrance & store). They never made me feel bad and only wanted me to be happy. I now have the perfect Vera Wang gown of my dreams.
Wedding Salon of Manhasset is truly a special place, I highly recommend them in all categories.

let's just start with they ordered the wrong dress.but, they addressed the problem and fixed it in time for the wedding.they have the best selection available in the new york area - i know because i went to close to 15 stores. ask for Casey to be your seamstress - she knows what she's doing and really cares.

The staff of the Wedding Salon of Manhasset is excellent. Sanya is warm and makes the bride feel so comfortable. They really listen and help find a dress that fits your budget, and suits your style and body type. I tried on 7 dresses in total, it was the only store I went to and everyone LOVED my dress. It was as if I had it designed for me. It was a wonderful experience and took all the stress out of choosing a dress. Thank you Wedding Salon!

This was by far the best selection of dresses on Long Island. I loved the boutique look of the salon and had a handful I could have easily chosen. The staff was friendly, accommodating and the seamstress did a great job. Gorgeous dresses!

I at first had a really hard time finding the dress , The staff at the Wedding Salon were so helpful. Never once did I feel pressured into purchasing my dress. I actually went into the Wedding Salon three times before purchasing my dress and everytime was treating just as special as the first time. Finally with the help and pulling of many gowns I found the dress that was perfect for me. I know first hand that you do not get that service or care from other stores.

A pleasure to work with! My dress and veil were out of this world!

This was the 1st place i went to to look for dresses and they were amazing. But i didnt find what i was looking for. So i did what everyone tells you to do and went to kleinfelds and everywhere elsei could think of. After 2 mths of searching i found the dress at saks but they werent very helpful. So i called the wedding salon who was where i 1st went and asked them if they could get the dress. They said they actually had it just hadnt shown it to me as i was so adament it wasnt what i wanted...boy was i wrong. Anyway long story short they got the dress for me and for much less then saks. they were truly a pleasure to deal with. They do the alterations there and if you go please ask for CASEY she is amazing. She really knew what she was doing and truthfully made my dress look like a masterpiece. In fact she was so great we even hired her to dress me that day and let me tell you she was worth every penny. One of my bridesmaid's dresses was a little tight and she fixed it right there and then, my husbands bands were too big cause he lost too much weight and she fixed it that morning. Truthfully the wedding salon was amazing and really helped make my day special I would highly recommend going there!

While the dress was purchased in NY, and we had it shipped to Florida, the shipping caused the dress to be totally wrinkled and we had to get it professionally pressed at an additional expense. They could have done a better job in shipping which they did charge for...and it was not inexpensive. They also did not call to ask if it arrived and in what condition.

Ugh...please!They are so snobby! I walked in to look for a dress for my sister's wedding after a Pilates class and I guess I didn't measure up to their standards. They didn't even offer to help me! I would NEVER recommend anyone go there unless you've got your designer labels dripping off you!I guess my 4 carat ring and LV import from Paris wasn't enough for them.Gross!
