After going to David's bridal and Boujee on a Budget (which, by the way, had a VERY limited selection of dresses under $1000), I was pretty sure I was going to have to order a dress online. I came here and found THREE dresses that I absolutely loved and gave me the feeling I was looking for. I was r…eally surprised, since they are a boutique so smaller selection, but their dresses are really good quality and good value! All were $1000 or less, so very much within my budget! Claire was amazing at helping me try on the dresses and figuring out what sizes would work. I absolutely love this shop.

From day one, they took care of me in ordering my dream dress and explaining the alteration process. Joe did a fantastic job with the alterations and Brianna is quick with responding. I highly recommend them!

I reached out to Abq Bridal to see if they had my dream dress. They did not but they helped direct me to the right spot. When I found my dress it was 5 or more sizes to big. I tried reaching out to multiple people trying to get it altered and no one got back to me. I reached out to them and they put… in WORK. My dress came out more beautifully than I thought possible. I was also able to get my brides maids dresses here. They had so many options for them to choose from and the exact colors I wanted. They were also able to make my maid of honors dress into something she absolutely loved. GO HERE IF YOU WANT PEACE OF MIND AND THE BEST QUALITY! They made everything so easy and I was able to get all the other things done with peace of mind. Thank you Abq Bridal and team!

Getting my alterations done here was such an amazing experience! I went to a consultation elsewhere in Albuquerque first… and that seamstress just could not envision my requests and felt I was asking too much. Came here already feeling a little disheartened about what I wanted and he was my biggest …supporter! He made everything happen, and made it seem like no big deal. Only took a few weeks and cost was super reasonable! Love love love my dress now. So grateful I took it here!! Finally have pictures to show!! He allowed me to keep my train and took in the waist perfectly. My dress was a size 10, and we took it in to about a size 2!! PERFECT craftsmanship. So glad I found this shop!

Dahlia is AMAZING. Anything you want is possible she will adapt your vision of your dream wedding dress to your body. When I first met Dahlia I didn’t have a dress yet but expressed what I wanted in my dress and showed her pictures of possible dresses. There wasn’t anything on the market that was …extremely low back. I showed her a picture of the dress I had in mind and asked her if she could work her magic to make it super low back; without hesitation she said YES I can do it for you. Dahlia is very open and easy to communicate with. If there was something I didn’t like and wanted to address it was easy to do with her and she never got snippy with me. She finished my dress so fast and even cleaned it for me! My dress had the wedding glow after Dahlia worked on it! Check out the before and after pictures!

I got married on September 23, 2017 in Albuquerque. I currently live in Columbus, OH and I had taken my wedding dress to a local seamstress in OH for alterations. I had a really bad experience and the job the other seamstress did was so sloppy, that I thought my dress was completely ruined. It did n…ot fit right at all and was cut too short for the shoes I was going to wear. Also, the hem was completely uneven and the bustle was not added correctly. I called my mom crying because my Wedding was two weeks away and I had no idea what I was going to do about getting my dress fixed. My family and bridesmaids went to ABQ Bridal Boutique and had their alterations done with Dalia. As soon as I called my mom, she went over to ABQ Bridal Boutique and showed Dalia the pictures and told her what had happened. She was very compassionate and told me that once I got into town ( 5 days before the Wedding) she could have me come in and see what we could do to fix it. I went in first thing Monday morning, and as soon as we walked in she was ready to help. She assessed the damage and gave me many options. We decided on evening out the current length and I ended up finding a nice pair of flats, She took in the waist and fixed the bustle. It is amazing the work she did. I received nothing but compliments on our Wedding day and the dress looked so beautiful and was exactly what I wanted. I hardly ever write reviews, but after my bad experience with the seamstress in OH, I feel that it is really important to share my story and let you know my experience. Dalia is a master at her craft and she really listens to what you want. She asks a lot of questions and really puts her heart and soul into what she does. She was so busy the days I came in for my fittings, and she went out of her way to help me even on short notice. Even with the short time frame, she did a remarkable job. She has fair prices and she sets realistic expectations. She has my recommendation to everyone I know going forward! Thank you for saving my dress Dalia!
