This was my first wedding dress try-on experience and I’m very thankful it was at Winsome! The shop and ladies there are inviting and warm. Bekah was very sweet, fun, helpful, and positive. I didn’t find my dress, but continue to browse their website and love how it’s updated frequently and shows several details of each dress they offer. Hands down recommend this shop!
I loved the service that I received from Winsome bridal. I found the most beautiful Pronovias dress that made my perfect day perfect! They are so helpful and wonderful and I am so glad that I got them to make it all happen. Thanks again for all you did for me and I do tell all my friends getting married we’re to go for the perfect gown.Suzi Avalos
I knew finding a dress fit for a snowy mountain elopement was going to be difficult in San Diego, but working with Christina and Yilo to build my dream dress from scratch was the easily the most fun part of all of our planning. Watching my dress evolve from a little scrap of fabric to what Yilo described as a dress for royalty was the most mind-blowing experience I have ever had. The Winsome Brides crew was an absolute dream to work with; they LOVE what they do, and it clearly shows. If you are looking for a completely personalized experience with a small, local business that genuinely cares, you have found the right place.Thank you so much for all of your hard work!
My daughter found the most beautiful dress here and we were treated amazing! Best shopping experience. You will not be disappointed
Where do I begin? I’m obsessed with this place! I came here last year to try on dresses. Christina and her daughter were really sweet (and helpful ) and made it a pleasant experience. I decided to have alterations done and the staff was very professional, patient and timely with all my fittings. I could not have asked for a better experience and I am forever grateful for Winsome bride. If you want a one stop shop for all things bridal and want a personalized and fun experience, check them out!!
This is an amazing gem. Strongly recommend d to anyone looking for a wedding dress. Had a much larger selection than expected with great quality and got the dress of my dreams for less than $1000! Had a wonderful experience with Christina! She had great ideas on how to help individualize my dress. Highly recommend for anyone getting married.
I had an amazing experience from start to finish. My dress was so beautiful and the price was right....they did all my fittings and alterations. Christina made me feel like family. Thanks again Windsom Brides. My wedding was successful and I felt so beautiful in my dress.
Loved it! Cute shop and lots to choose from. Christina was so helpful, respectful and understanding of my wishes to stay within my budget. She suggested a style of dress I didnt think I could pull off and it ended up being the one! I said yes to the dress! Im so excited for my special day with my special guy and special friends and family.
Buying my dream dress from Christina at Winsome Brides was such a sweet experience. She is a delight to work with and her dresses are one of a kind! Thank you so much!
My dress is amazing. The process was personalized, friendly, and top of the line. Adjustments to my dress were done quickly and I couldnt have been happier.
I can’t even express how wonderful it was to find my dream dress at Winsome Brides. It was one of the best experiences of my life. The shop was very clean and cute. There were so many different dresses to chose from, and a very different variety of brands and styles to chose from. I was able to try on so many different styles of dresses and find out what looked great on me. Christina was so fun and friendly, she was very honest with what did and didn’t looked good. It was very professional and very helpful advice. I would recommend Winsome Brides to anyone looking for that special experience. I can’t wait for my future husband to see me in my dress. Thank you Winsome Brides!
Where do I even begin? Christina and Gala took phenomenal care to ensure my dress looked and felt perfect for my rustic country wedding in Julian, CA. I had purchased the gown from a local bridal shop that was closing down, and didnt get to have the big I said yes moment with my girls. Instead, we opted to have a dress reveal at my first fitting, complete with champagne and macaroons!Christina was quick to listen to any concerns I had about fit, and Gala was a perfectionist with every aspect of my gown. I LOVED my French bustle, and the seamless fit to my athletic frame.Thank you Winsome Brides for making me feel radiant, inside and out on my wedding day!!
I cannot recommend Winsome Brides enough. I worked with both Bekah and Christina, and not only were they great stylists, but they made me feel like I was just another girlfriend to make it fun and made me feel so beautiful. They helped me find the perfect dress that I had envisioned for my big day within my budget. Beyond finding the dress, the customer service and support, especially in the craziness of planning a wedding during a pandemic, was soooo appreciated. The dress was technically a size down from my normal but was almost there in fitting and it was so convenient that they had an in-house seamstress to make it fit me perfectly. I even had them do my husbands alterations even though he didnt purchase through them or one of their partners and they were able to sew in the sweetest sentiment for my husbands late grandfather so that he could be with him on our big day even in heaven. Thank you all so much!!!
You wont find a better place to get your wedding dress!
It was a pleasure working with Christina via an online order: she responded pretty promptly, reassuringly answered all my questions, and made the whole process very easy. Once I received the dress, Christina gave me 3 days to decide. Although I did not end up keeping the dress, the return process was just as she described (minus all the delays in shipping, since the USPS is going through weird times). All in all, it was a great experience. I highly recommend this business, even though Ive never physically stepped inside its doors. Christina is simply top-notch professional! An easy 5 stars!
I have had the pleasure of finding THE dress at Winsome Brides twice this year. The first time I went with a dear friend. The experience was so positive that I went back with my daughter when she got engaged a few months later. The owners are attentive and perceptive. Their expertise and attention to detail (and what makes a brides face light up) are key in connecting their clients to the dress of their dreams.
I love Winsome Brides! Even though I didnt end up finding my wedding dress here, I found a beautiful dress for my bridal shower/rehearsal dinner. The owner helped my friend and me for a long time, answering all of our questions about wedding dresses and their business in general. I plan to support in any way I can, especially by telling others to go and check it out!
I could not have had a successful wedding without Winsome Brides. I got my wedding dress, hair piece, earrings, alterations, and had Christina as my Day of Wedding Coordinator! Their boutique is quaint, intimate, and beautiful. Christina and her daughter are so easy going and positive. Such and wonderful experience working with them all around. Christina worked tirelessly the day of my wedding and helped it flow and kept it organized.I would recommend this place to anyone wanting a laid back experience with no pressure and a lot of love! Thank you for being apart of my big day, Winsome Brides!!
Chris is truly a visionary! Her eye for what’s flattering and the possibilities of what a dress “could be” rather than what it is, is impressive. She listened to me and ended up figuring out what I wanted before I did! I tried on all the dresses I thought I had in mind, but she ended up pulling out a dress I never would have considered and it was THE ONE! I got the dress of my dreams and I couldn’t have done it without her.
Went here with a friend and absolutely loved it and loved the 2 owners. Highly recommend if you are looking for a wedding dress. A very friendly & comfortable setting. Check it out- they are awesome.
I wish Winsome was around when I purchased my wedding dresses! They have a gorgeous boutique with so many beautiful dresses at a fraction of the price you would pay for! I had consigned my dress and they were such a delight to work with. Their store is so cute and have so many different styles of dresses, accessories and even men’s clothes! I would highly recommend any bride to check them out before going to the big box stores as you will save a ton of money!
Best place to find stunning affordable wedding dresses! All different types for a reasonable cost! Christina and Bekah (mother and daughter duo) are just so fun to be around, and they truly want you to look your best on your wedding day. I was honored to actually have Christina help me on my big day last September, She has so much experience! When looking for a dress and planning your wedding they give you great advice. Super kind, you got to Love first impressions!!Love, Mrs. Kemp
Winsome Brides is the best bridal shop in San Diego.They have an amazing selection of consigned bridal gowns, dresses, accessories, mens suits and more. The staff are friendly, knowledgeable, well experienced, and will go above & beyond to make sure youre ready for the occasion! 10/10 would recommend
If you are looking for a more intimate experience while shopping for your perfect dress you should check this place out. Cute little shop with gorgeous options. They have new dresses but also ones on consignment that are big brand names that normally have a high price tag to go with it. They also have some locally designed accessories.
Thank you for giving me a magical, friendly and warm first bridal dress trying out appointment. I had so much fun and you were so sweet. Thank you!
My experience at Winsome Brides was something out of Say Yes to the Dress. We were welcomed at the door after making the reservation for seven of us (my bridesmaids, my mom, and myself) by the lovely mother daughter duo, Chris and Bekah. Instantly, they leapt into action and made us all feel at home with some basic ground rules. Stay around budget and in my size.Everyone picked out a couple of dresses and I started to try on different styles and colors and patterns. Then my friends and family sat down in the cute vintage couches and chairs and Bekah and I got to work in the dressing room. I tried on a few. Everyone really loved this cute pink dress and I felt like a princess in it. It was set to the side and i was told to try on a couple more.Then the moment happened and I tried on the one. It zipped perfectly, and already had a bustle on it from the previous owner. Everyone screamed, I cried, and Bekah and I hugged in the dressing room knowing I had found the one.I tried on the pink one again, and just wanted to get back in the other one. So Bekah zipped me back into it. We got some cute photos with an adorable sign that said I said Yes! And the whole shebang.I could not recommend this place and Chris and Bekah enough. It was an amazing deal for the dress with some alterations having been made, and I got to take it home that day.Bekah and Chris, you know Ill be contacting you again soon for recommendations on other wedding essentials and I have my fingers crossed that you can be available to help coordinate my day.Winsome Brides made me feel like a princess and helped me find the dress of my dreams. Make an appointment and bring some friends and youre going to have a fun time, I promise.
A unique and adorable shop. Wonderful customer service!
Great experience saying yes to the dress!!
Experienced and helpful!
