From the reviews

This was my first time getting a dress altered, much less a wedding dress! Oda, my seamstress, was incredible. Because of her expertise, I trusted her to choose my veil, which she did. Both my fiancé and I were amazed at the amount of pinning and work that she did.

★★★★★ — Anna, Feb 2026

I Highly recommend Uptown Bride for all of your bridal needs!! My bridal assistant, Natesa, made me feel like a million bucks! She was my own personal hype woman and she was so genuine and honest. I had a lot of fun working with her and I actually found not 1 but TWO dresses from Uptown Bride!

★★★★★ — Crystal, Jul 2023

I had the very best experience while I was here looking for my wedding dress! My stylist Kianna was pure magic! She knew every way to put my heart and mind at ease and just made it fun to be there!

★★★★★ — Victoria, Feb 2025

Our experience was incredible. We booked the private room, and chose sweet snacks. It was the perfect space to find the dress of my dreams. Our consultant Niteesa (sp?) was so sweet and cried with me when I picked my dress.

Plus size bridal & formal at Uptown Bride

Uptown Bride 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. Alterations are mentioned on site here, which makes the fitting logistics a whole lot easier.
