Words escape me when I try to encapsulate the amount of love, nourishment, passion, guidance, and gentle kindness that Lauren provided to me at Juniper James when I went to my very first bridal dress appointment. Whether you’re plus sized, petite, tall, short — Lauren makes you feel at home in your own body. I’ve never felt such a soul connection and sense of safety in trusting a “stranger’s” vision for my big day. I will forever scream this shop’s name (and Lauren) from the mountain tops in referrals for anyone seeking out a dress, fun accessory, or just a fun dress up day! You leave this shop having made a new trustworthy, stylish, and loving friend. The first dress Lauren chose for me ended up being the exact dress I decided on for my wedding. Treat your body, mind, and soul to this serene & blissful experience. 1000000/10 recommend this sweet shop & owner! 💜💜💜

Lauren is AMAZING. I felt so supported, happy and welcome in her salon - as everyone will. I no longer live in Boone, but visited this salon while I was in town for a bit - its better than any other salon that Ive found! The art and decor is stunning on its own, and the gowns that Lauren has curated are out of this world remarkable. She does such a great job helping you find YOUR dress, the one that makes you feel best. Lauren never felt like a salesperson, instead she felt like my long lost best friend. I cannot recommend Juniper James enough to others, I had such a perfect and magical experience.

I was really nervous about finding a wedding dress because I always have buyers remorse and also just have a hard time feeling confident in clothes when I try on anything in stores. I had gone to 4 other bridal shops before going to Juniper James and always felt pressure from the sales associate or the girls I brought along to buy a dress I wasn’t 100% in love with. This was definitely NOT the case with Lauren at Juniper James.The shop is comforting and inviting. It’s beauty really makes the whole dress shopping experience feel magical. Lauren is just one of those people that makes everyone around her feel confident in their own beauty. The whole time my friends would voice their opinions and she would step in and say “how do you feel?” She was an advocate for my voice and opinion the whole time. She’s amazing and the dresses she has in the shop are all beautiful and cater to so many different styles. Also her accessory selection is gorgeous!!!All the stress I would feel about my wedding would melt away every time I walked through the juniper James doors! such an amazing experience!

Oh, I am so glad I found Juniper James! From the moment I found their Instagram I knew Id feel comfortable and celebrated as a plus size bride. Lauren was warm and welcoming upon our arrival and throughout my appointment. I was able to try on any dress in the shop (not the case at other stores) and Lauren did not make me feel bad for not fitting into sample sizes. She listened to what I wanted, was supportive of my choice, and never played the part of salesperson. When it came down to choosing between two dresses Lauren didnt try to push the more expensive dress. Instead, she helped me process my thoughts and pick the perfect dress! I cannot wait to wear my beautiful Truvelle gown!!

Wish I could give Juniper James Bridal a million stars. I bought my wedding dress this past weekend during a great appointment with Lauren. The shop is absolutely beautiful and Lauren is so kind and knowledgable. She 1000% knows what shes doing and made me feel so comfortable. I ended up buying a dress that is completely different from what I thought I wanted after browsing dozens of Pinterest boards - a dress that I wouldnt have even tried on without her encouragement, but I love it so much and cant wait to wear it on wedding day. Grateful for such a lovely experience and I cant wait to recommend this place to others!

I had such a wonderful experience here. Lauren is such a sweetheart and made my wedding dress shopping a breeze! It was so relaxing and stress free! ❤

I wish I could give extra stars. I went into my appointment honestly dreading it. I was worried that I wouldn’t feel beautiful in any dress and I had really low confidence. Lauren, such a kind and gentle soul, made me feel like a princess. So beautiful. This shop is inclusive in every way and I love that. I really cannot recommend Juniper James Bridal enough!

First of all, I could never begin to explain how comfortable Lauren makes you feel when trying her beautiful dresses on. I was blown away by the hospitality. You feel like you’ve known her forever. Secondly, I went into the bridal shopping experience anxious about things not fitting my body correctly or being unflattering. The dresses here are so beautiful and can fit every body shape and size. Don’t think twice about going to visit! I can’t say enough about Lauren and her team at Juniper James!

This was truly the most amazing dress experience I could have asked for. Lauren is so kind and helpful and I love everything her store stands for!!!! I obviously found my most perfect dress and I loved every second I was there!!

Lauren has created something truly magical at Juniper James. She helped me come out of my shell and really figure out what I was looking for in a gown, truly and unapologetically ME! We had so much fun and I think I tried on every BEAUTIFUL gown there. She sources from female owned businesses, and I think thats just super cool too. If youre looking for a gown (or jumpsuit - do you!), Lauren and her amazing team will help you find the right one for your day, and make you feel fabulous long after youve left their spectacular space. Lauren & Marcy, yall are the BEST

I went into my appointment nervous and insecure. Shopping as a plus sized woman is hard enough, but the added pressure of shopping for a wedding dress was getting to me. I was worried that nothing would fit me and I would leave defeated. But that was not the case! Lauren made me feel welcomed, secure, and beautiful. She has curated an incredible collection of dresses that are size and style inclusive. I left that appointment on cloud nine, I found the perfect dress and I will always cherish the time spent with Lauren picking it out. She has done an amazing job of not only finding you the perfect dress, but giving you the perfect experience.

I can’t say enough good things about Lauren!! The experience you get at Juniper James Bridal is above the rest and their dresses and accessories are beautifully unique. It’s not just a try-on shop - Lauren takes time to talk about what you like, don’t like, and what’s important to you.Also; they celebrate all love (yay, 🏳️‍🌈!), give back to their community, and support women owned businesses.I can’t freakin’ wait to wear my dress and I plan to pop in and say hi whenever I’m in the area.❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
