From the reviews

Absolutely LOVEEEED my experience with Alex at Love Curvy Bridal! It was a first and only stop needed bridal appointment for me. Alex helped me find the dress of my dreams! I normally experience a lot of anxiety especially with trying on dresses.

Post-wedding UPDATE: Still noting but great things to say! Helped so much in making my wedding day an absolute dream. Had to put pics of THE dress because WOW. Thank you Alex for all your help in getting my veil and getting me to a wonderful alteration shop in Cincinnati as well. Such a wonderful shop!

★★★★★ — Bianca, Apr 2026

I was very nervous for my experience… my whole life going anywhere to try on clothing has been a nightmare because of my size. As soon as I walked in the door I was greeted by Alex and she was absolutely delightful thru the whole process. She didn’t make me feel awkward or uncomfortable in anyway whatsoever.

★★★★★ — Carly, Jan 2026

10/10 recommend—I said YES to the dress! I had an amazing experience from start to finish. Alex was absolutely AMAZING. She made me feel so comfortable and was incredibly sweet from beginning to end. I’m not someone who ever dresses up, so I wasn’t excited about this part of the wedding process at all.

Plus size bridal & formal at Love Curvy Bridal

Love Curvy Bridal 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.
