Everyone was helpful and owner was was very nice and knowledgeable. I would recommend anyone who is getting married to come here.

Worst

This place has good prices, but you truly get what you pay for. My salesperson barely paid any attention to me once the deal was made. Everytime I came into the store, I had to se...

Geni was patient caring and great with Steffani and her mom. We felt like we were her only customer. She is a great asset to Ventura. There was no pressure. We had time to make our decision! \r Thank you more

If you are looking for a beautiful gown without blowing the budget, you will not find a better value then Ventura's! They have a large selection, too. This is not a ""froo-froo"" salon, though...it is what it is. I loved my gown! It had beading, embellishment, etc. and was only $756! I didn't see anything over $1200! My complaint is about the alterations process. They only take appointments Monday-Friday starting at noon. They also book up and it is very, very, hard to try to get your appointments in if you work full-time. I couldn't get my final fitting in before portraits, so just went with it. Order early if you are expecting any alterations...it is very hard to get the appoinments! more

I got my wedding dress and the mother of the groom dress from Ventura's. Through these shopping trips I worked with a few of the different consultants and most of them are excellent! I loved my dress and got it for a great price! more

Ventura's bridal was the perfect one stop shopping experience for all my bridal needs. I was able to get the perfect wedding dress, veil and jacket all within my budget. In addition, I got all my alterations at the same location without any problems. Would highly recommend them. more

They also have a huge selection of bridesmaid dresses and quincenera dresses. I believe the bride gets a discount on her dress if you get your bridesmaid dresses there also. more

I love Ventura's Bridal! I went to high school down the street and use to past there everyday! But when my day to actually go in and see the bridal selection came....I couldnt have been any happier! There was no pressure to purchase and they were very patient with me and my picky taste! When I actually found the two....Pattie really helped me make my final decision. She and the staff was very professional even during the hectic Saturdays! Thanks again more

Overall a great place. Tons of dresses to choose from and they will match the price you found somewhere else if it was cheaper there. Unfortunately the girl I had helping me (Brittany) measured me incorrectly and my dress was gigantic when it came in. $400in alterations later, it looked beautiful again. I was really impressed that the alterations lady was able to fix that disaster. I liked this place much better than weddings by debbie or any of the other bridal shops we went to ( we went to almost every one in the houston/ spring area). I would recommend going here- they aren't pushy at all. more

We went to Ventura's Bridal because it was recommended by a friend. We were a little skeptical when we drove up ... it is not much to look at from the outside... but then we went in and met Genie and had a great, fun, informative time looking through the hundreds and hundreds of dresses they had to choose from. Then we left to go to places that look better from the outside and quickly discovered that they all had smaller selections, higher prices, and stuffy, cranky, inexperienced staff. So, we went back to Genie and had a great time finding the perfect wedding dress and also the bridesmaids dresses. We were totally relaxed with Genie because she has been doing this for years so she knows what she is doing and is a nice, friendly, fun person. She made the whole experience that is usually very stressful, a fun, meaninful, and stress free experience. I highly recommend Genie at Ventura's Bridal for any bride. more

The first time I went in it was with my now husband and mother. They helped me to find 3 dresses I wanted my bridesmaids to try on and wrote them down to pull forward the day that they were going to come and try on the dresses. I was able to get my girls dresses for a reasonable price and they are just basic chocolate brown. They were made very well and only the normal alterations had to be made. Length and in at the bust some (you know how those dresses almost never fit perfectly when they come in) more

This is a GREAT place to buy a wedding dress! The workers are very kind and excited to have you there. I had to get my wedding dress in 4 weeks and they totally made it happen. Also, my alterations had to be done in 4 weeks and they did that too! Definitely a gem in the sea of horrible dress shops. more
