Amour Bridal & Evening Wear

I wish no bride the horrific experience I encountered when ordering my wedding dress from Amour Bridal. more

I had been looking for my wedding gown for weeks and had no luck at all. I felt like I had been to every bridal shop in San Diego until a friend recommended Amour Bridal. I scheduled my appointment for that same Saturday. When I walked into the shop it was smaller than I expected but the consultant Brittany was very friendly. After asking me what I was looking for in my wedding gown she knew the exact dresses to pull for me. She pulled four dresses for me that met my exact description of what I wanted. I ended up falling in love with the second gown I tried on. more

Brittany was not pushy at all and understood that this was a big decision for me. I ended up buying that second gown I tried on it was perfect!!!! The couture dress I was looking for with out the crazy price tag. I would recommend Amour Bridal to anyone who is looking for that perfect dress and also the perfect experience. more

I have been having a hard time finding a vintage inspired, unique wedding dress... After that horrible experience I was hesitant to go to another bridal shop. I finally got up the courage to just go and drove over to old town La Mesa. I highly recommend Amour Bridal for any bride... more

I walked in and Brittany was friendly, asked questions but was not pushy at all. She let me choose my own options and didn't try to push anything on me. After trying on 3 dresses I found the one. Literally ""THE DRESS""!!! I get the actual dress I tried on! They don't have to order it and it wont take months to get it! The fittings take time but I was thrilled to be able to buy right off the rack. more

All their dresses are in impeccable condition. Their prices are amazing and had alot of great dresses under $500. The dress I choose looks couture, vintage and old Hollywood glamour without the vintage couture price tag. more

I loved Amour Bridal!! Everything about them from there pricing to there service was fantastic!! more

I actually found my dress and never got a chance to go back to Amour - I just had to update to say that this store was easily the best wedding dress shopping experience I had. They had a vast selection in terms of prices and styles - much more so than the chain stores - and the service was excellent. more

I didn't realize how overwhelmed I would get shopping for my wedding dress, and the staff was very understanding and helpful when I got that deer in the headlight look as I looked through the massive amounts of dresses. They have a great selection, aren't pushy, and don't tell you that every dress looks amazing on you - because let's be honest, THEY DON'T! more

better dresses than the chain stores.... looking for something different and i found it. The store is great when it comes to fitting appointments and moving them around my schedule. They have full length mirrors and 2 pedestals for trying on dresses in the main room. they have a few bridesmaid dresses - veils and acessories-and do tux rentals also. the girls are very helpful and full of energy. I love my dress.... more

This is a great little bridal boutique. It's kind of hidden away in La Mesa, past all the antique stores in the Village. But it is a gem. One of my bridesmaids and I decided last minute to try wedding dress shopping on a Saturday. We didn't have an appointment, but the sales gal was more than happy to help us out. She listened to my requests, and was great at helping me pick out dresses that fit my needs. more

I highly recommend Amour Bridal for any bride looking for an amazing dress!!!! I couldn't be happier with my choice, the price and Brittany's great customer service!!! more

Amour Bridal was amazing from the moment I walked in to the day I took my wedding dress. The staff was friendly and very helpful ..I told them exactly what I wanted and the price range I wanted to stay in between ...and the consultant pulled out just that (My perfect dress!!!!) .They had so many unique and gorgeous dresses I couldn't believe it ..The dress came in a timely manner and alterations were reasonable and the seamstress made my dress fit me like a glove I couldn't be happier . If you are looking for personalized and great experience you should go here. I would recommend them to any one !!! Pros: friendly,price,and in house alt!!!! Cons: smaller shop more

I walked in to the shop and was surprised at how dated the shop was. I think a little paint can go a long way. They had dresses separated by sizes, but there weren't very many in each size. BUT my consultant was amazing. She really knew what I was looking for. I told her I wanted a lace dress with no beading. She brought me the only one they had and told me she was sure it would look stunning on me. I HATED it on the hanger, but I decided to try it on. I had picked out myself the usual A-Line princess dresses. The dress she picked out was BEAUTIFUL! I was so happy with it and the price that I couldn't let it pass by. I canceled all my other appointments for the day and bought the lace dress. They also do customizing and walk you through the alterations. I had such a great experience!! Pros: Intimate bridal shop, friendly staff Cons: They don't seem to carry as much as other shops, dated more

Well, the beginning of my experience with Amour Bridal got off to a good start. The staff was friendly and had a lot of patience when I was indecisive. I bought my veil from them, and dressed my husband's groomsmen and fathers through them. My veil was locked in a room when I went to pick it up. They couldn't find the keys... now, this wouldn't seem like a big deal if it had only happened once. Organization isn't a high priority with them. Then there was the tux debacle. My father (father of the bride) had his measurements taken by them, and three days before the wedding, went to pick up his tux. The pants were HUGE! At least 4 sizes too large. The staff immediately went from friendly to ""sorry, there's nothing we can do"" THREE days before my wedding. They refused to order the correct size, declaring it wouldn't get there in time (when they had initially offered me overnight service to begin with!)- so that was a big lie. They had already charged our card, so the best they were willing to do was give a 10% discount on that one tux. My family spent 1000s of dollars there and THAT was the best they could do- $15?????My father ended up having to pay for his tux rental through them, and go out and buy a pair of tux pants! I will never do business with them again. I will deter anyone I know from experiencing what I did while planning their wedding. It's their business and they still weren't willing to do anything for us. I guess word of mouth isn't that important to them. I've been married for over a year now and I still get upset when I think about it! Pros: Friendly Cons: Won't fix errors, charge$$$$ more

Finally a salon with great personalized service and gorgeous dresses. I bought my gown after shopping all of San Diego county. SAVE YOURSELF. Just got to amour bridal . Great dresses, prices, and consultants. I love the atmosphere and the welcoming staff. My alterations where perfect and resonable considering the quality. I was sorry when it was over - I enjoyed my experience so much and recommend amour to all brides! Pros: customer service and alterations Cons: What are the drawbacks? more

I had gone shopping for months and couldn't find one dress that I loved.....until I came to Amour Bridal. As soon as I walked into Amour I was greeted by a very helpful bridal consultant who helped me find the perfect wedding gown. She answered all of my questions and I didn't fell like I did at most bridal shops, Pressured!! The dress came in right when they said it would,and they were very acomidating to my busy bridal schedule for my wedding gown fittings. The dress was gorgeous the service was fantastic and the quality and prices were unbelievable!! The staff was very helpful and were there with me for every step of my wedding gown experience. When I was at Amour I didn't fell like I was just any other bride, I felt like I was apart of the Amour family. I would recommend them to anybody!! Pros: service,quality and pricing Cons: none! more

Working with Amour Bridal has been one of the worst experiences of my life. I have been in numerous weddings and recently got married myself and have never had such poor service and an ill-fitting dress from all of the bridal shops I have worked with. After receiving my exact measurements, they still ordered me a dress that was two sizes too small. I could not get the zipper up. When I requested they order the right size dress (2 2/3 months before the wedding) they refused to do so and claimed that it takes three months to order them. However they were more than willing to charge me hundreds of dollars in order to turn my size 4 dress into a 6 rather than getting me the right size in the first place. These people refuse to order the correct size dress, they order the wrong size and charge exuberant alteration fees. Their dresses are over-priced already and then they charge the price of the dress (if not more) in alteration fees. This is their business and it is wrong. To make matters worse, even after receiving all of these alterations that should not have been necessary in the first place, not one of our bridesmaid dresses fit well. The entire evening was uncomfortable to say the least, because we were worried about the construction of our gowns. They were poorly made, all of the zippers were on the verge of breaking and many of the altered seams ripped before the reception even started. If I could do this whole thing over again, I would steer clear of Amour Bridal. Cons: Service, quality, and price more
