From the reviews

I said YES to the dress at Bridal & Formal in the Cincinnati Bridal District! My consultant, Bobbi, was absolutely amazing, sweet, kind, bubbly, & SO helpful and supportive.

★★★★★ — Brittany, Sep 2025

I had the best experience at Bridal & Formal! This was the only place I looked for a dress, and I fell in love with the very first one I tried on. Sandra was absolutely amazing and so helpful throughout the entire appointment.

★★★★★ — Kendall, Mar 2026

I had a wonderful time with my experience at Bridal and Formal! I had the privilege of working with my bridal stylist, Molly, who was amazing to work with. She was so friendly, helpful, and genuinely attentive to what I was looking for.

★★★★★ — Riddhi, Nov 2025

Jen gave me the most amazing shopping experience I could have asked for. I went in to the appointment with no idea what I wanted or what would look good on me. I showed Jen some inspo pics that I had found online. She pulled dresses I probably would have never looked at myself. The first one I tried on was THE one.

Plus size bridal & formal at Bridal & Formal

Bridal & Formal comes up for plus size bridal and formal wear — confirmed on their own site. Two things to know before the trip. First, bridal shopping is usually by appointment — book ahead, and when you call, ask what size range their try-on samples come in. A shop can order almost any gown in your size, but the sample sizes on the floor decide whether you actually get to see yourself in the dress, and the good plus bridal shops stock samples to try, not just to imagine. Second, plan the alterations timeline: gowns and formal dresses typically go through two or three fittings, so the comfortable window is starting your search around 8–10 months before the date and saying yes to a gown by 6.
