Weddings With Joy Bridal Salon

I bought my dress from the Seattle Wedding show and they were very helpful, not pushy, my dress was a great value and was under $500! Great place to get your dress!

Do not waste time going to downtown seattle!! Angela and her team have ALL of the best dresses, and Angela's taste is impeccable. Trust her when she wants you to try something on that you feel is not "your style"... she knows her stuff!!!I received complements all night long on the perfect match of the dress style to me and my event, the fit, the color, etc. I left it all in Angela's hands and was not disappointed!!

Like many brides, long before meeting Mr. Right, I'd envisioned exactly what my wedding dress would look like - glamorous, sexy, chic. Unfortunately, when the time came to go dress shopping, NOTHING I tried on looked good on me. I am 36 years old, 5'2" and 160 pounds with a flat chest and big booty. Despite assistance from employees at several local dress shops, each time I tried on dresses I ended up leaving disappointed. All around me were people gushing at size 2 twenty-somethings with huge boobs in princess dresses. I didn't get that. I felt fat, ugly, and old despite the fact I KNOW I am none of those. Discouraged, I ended up purchasing the first dress I DIDN'T look horrible in and tried to make myself love it.
Fast forward several months to the Tacoma Wedding Show. I was only going to scope out photographers, however the first booth I passed happened to be Weddings With Joy. While casually browsing the clearance racks, I happened to mention my dilemma to one of the employees manning the booth (who's name unfortunately I do not remember). Within seconds, she'd pulled a dress and had me in a makeshift dressing room trying on "THE ONE"! Not only did it fit perfectly (well, with the addition of some chicken cutlets in the boob region), it was everything I'd dreamed of - glamorous, chic, sexy, AGE APPROPRIATE. I stepped out to the mirror in the open area and for the first time since I'd been engaged, I heard "Oooohs!" and "Ahhhs!" from total strangers directed at ME! Not only was the dress perfect in appearance, it was 15% off the already reduced clearance price! When asked HOW she'd done it, the employee shrugged and responded, "I've been in the business for a long time, I guess it's just experience.". I, however, think it was MAGIC!

The ladies here were very nice and helpful. I found the most beautiful dress here for only $100!!! I had gone to 4 different places, but this place had the best service and a great selection!

The staff here were very helpful and friendly. Make sure you have an appointment for the fastest service and remember your camera!

I loved them at my wedding! Thank you guys for all of your help!

I bought my wedding dress through Weddings with Joy. I was able to buy my dress off the rack.

They were willing to allow me to try on a number of dress during my visit. Make sure to make an appointment. They are fairly busy so I would recommend trying to go during the week if possible. I think I went on a Wednesday or Thursday late afternoon and I was the only one there.

The big problem I had was after I picked my dress and it was put aside for me, I came back to get it and there was lipstick inside of it. They had allowed someone else to try on my dress. It would be one thing if I had picked it out and was ordering a brand new one OR it would be different if I had just mentally decided on the dress and it was not placed aside. This was not the case though-we had them put it aside, I had put money down, and I was buying it off the rack. I just felt like it was inconsiderate to allow someone to try on my dress and get lipstick on it. They did not even offer to spot clean it or anything. They made up an excuse about me not seeing it the first time I tried it on (I would have seen it, trust me. Bright red lips inside the dress!)

I have had friends who have had huge issues with this store but my visit and purchase was fine.

I have worked with the girls at Weddings With Joy since they opened in the 1990's! Their customer service cannot be beat! I highly recommend them as Olympia's premier bridal gown boutique!
