Amazing experience even for far-away brides!

by danistar

My mother had fallen in love with a beautiful Badgley-Mischka gown in NY where we live, but no one was able to get it in time for my wedding less than three months away. I desperately started calling stores that sold Badgley-Mischka - and I came across the amazing ladies of AniA.

Helena was a dream come true. She was so prompt and really worked hard to get the dress rushed to us. She stayed in contact with us throughout the whole process so we knew precisely what was going on. It wasn't easy for her, but she managed to get the EXACT dress we wanted in the EXACT color - and it could be shipped to us in time! In fact, it actually reached us a few days early. My mom and I burst into tears when we saw the dress - it was flawless and a perfect fit.

I wish I had ordered all of my gowns from there. The service, pricing, and attention to detail are unparalleled. They treated me so well even though I only ordered one dress - I bet their customers are completely spoiled!

I cannot thank Helena and her team enough. My mother looked and felt like a million bucks at my wedding, and she will continue wear her dress to many formal events. AniA Bridal made my wedding day perfect for my entire family. You're the best!

• Pros: Incredible customer service, both in person and via phone

Amazing Selection and Gracious Staff

by portlandgirl21

I went in to AniA when I first got engaged purely out of excitement. They have beautiful dresses from a number of my favorite designers and some that I didn't even know how much I loved! I hadn't really formulated an idea of what I was looking for yet and just wanted to get a sense of how different styles looked on me. I can understand how it might be trying for people to work on commission to spend their time and efforts on someone that has no intent of buying anything, but the woman who was helping my (Karen I think?) really seemed to share my excitement. Not only was she extremely knowledgeable and welcoming, but she did a great job of showing me a wide range of styles and helping me decide which few to focus on when I'm ready to dress shop for keeps. (which will definitely be at AniA!!)

• Pros: great service, lots of selection

I bought 11 dresses I like them so much!!

Amazing personal attention, called all my wedding party and coordinated for me, Altered very impossible dresses, even designed my own unique bussle for my unique dress!

The Team at Ania Bridal was so professional and took the time to get to know me and my family. Elana made my wedding day and dress buying process so easy and fun! She helped me coordinate bridesmaids in many states and even helped me connect with Jennifer the dress tailor who created a unique bussle for my dress. When a bridesmaid ordered the wrong size dress and lived out of state Ania Bridal helped her alter it perfectly 2 days before the wedding.

One of the most amazing things that stands out in my mind was how attentive the shop was to my family. My diabetic sister had a low blood sugar while we were dress shopping and they found her juice. Every person in the shop went above and beyond their job descriptions.

I would tell every bride to go to Ania first. I personally went to 4 other shops and felt rushed to make a decision. Ania let me try on as many dresses as I wanted and helped me choose dresses in my price point. When I found my dress I never looked back with regret.
