Love them! They were so wonderful to work with from the time I went for my initial appt to try on dresses to the day before my wedding when they steamed and bagged my dress for me. They ladies that work at this boutique are so sweet! They always made me feel so important and they relly know their bridal gown fashion. They helped me accessorize with a beaded belt, earrings, and a flower heaband that looked perfect with my dress. I wish I could shop at this butique every day! What a wonderful place!

The White Dress by the Shore was such a wonderful place to purchase my wedding dress! The space itself was very charming, from the fireplace to the decorations, and the staff was incredible. Lindsay was the one who helped me, and she was extremely enthusiastic and nice. She made me feel comfortable right away. Also, I loved the designers that the store carries. I chose a Modern Trousseau dress, and I absolutely LOVED wearing it at my wedding. I highly recommend The White Dress by the Shore!!

This shop went above and beyond my expectations. From the minute I walked in, I felt like a princess. The shop is self is absolutely adorable and the staff is very friendly. My budget was 2000 and we ended up coming under which is always great! I bought all of my accessories onsite. For one, they had beautiful pieces and two after I checked out some other shops for comparable accessories, the other shops were much more expensive. I also was able to get my undergarments and alterations done onsite. Everyone I dealt with was fantastic. They don't rush you and make sure every last detail is perfect! I highly recommend!

I LOVE The White Dress by the Shore!! I bought my wedding dress, Jenny Yoo BM dresses, flower girl dress, and my mom's dress here. My mom and I also had our fittings done here, and I plan to return one more time to preserve my dress. I have nothing but good things to say about this boutique. All the girls are so friendly, and we were always treated like family every time we called or entered the boutique. The only downside is that it can be a little pricey, but if you can afford it, it is worth every penny to buy your dress and to do your fittings here. I'll be sad when I don't have a reason to go back anymore! Hopefully one of my friends will buy her dress from here so I have an excuse to go visit again...:)

Beth at White Dress is so kind and wonderful. She collaborated with Callie @ Modern Trousseau for a wedding giveaway and we were the lucky recipients. Beth and the rest of the ladies treated me like any other bride and made me feel so comfortable. The shop is so pretty and cozy and the overall experience was just lovely. Many many thanks!!!

I made the trek down to Connecticut in search for my dream dress. I had been eying it forever. As soon as my maid of honor and I walked in, we were treated so wonderfully. I worked with Kelly and she truly went above and beyond. She found my dress for me (nicknamed Courtney) and picked out several other beautiful gowns for me to try on. It was such a great experience. Even when I went to pick up my gown, everyone was so nice to work with. There were a couple stores closer to where I live that carried my dress, but The White Dress by The Shore caught my eye from the start. It was certainly well worth the drive and I can't recommend them enough. I just love the whole atmosphere of the store. Kelly if you read this, Thank You so much for all of your help and helping me find my dream dress. You are fantastic!

We got my dress, my bridesmaids' dresses, my mom's dress, and the flower girl's dress here. We worked with Beth and Kelly and both were wonderful! They have opinions that help you make your decision without being pushy or aggressive. Josie, the seamstress, was amazing. This was a great bridal experience!

From my initial consultation to every fitting to the day I picked up my gown, I loved every minute I spent in White Dress by the Shore. The women who work there are fabulous and very responsive to every bride's body and needs. I felt beautiful and bridal every minute I spent in the store, and my Modern Trousseau gown was simply gorgeous. I honestly think this is the part of planning the wedding that I will miss most!

Oh my goodness! The best bridal boutique on the entire east coast. Their dress selection is amazing. I got both my wedding gown and my bridesmaids dresses there. The women that work their are so sweet and excited for you! You start crying in your dress and veil and they will too! They really work with you when it comes to finding the perfect dress for your personal style and taste as well as your body shape. They also help with accessorizing to come up with the most perfect and unique look for you. I had the best experience with White Dress and I highly highly highly recommend this store for your wedding dress and bridesmaid dresses. You absolutly cannot go wrong.

The White Dress by the Shore made my day even more spectacular. As a vendor you deal with before the wedding, they definitely assisted in picking the perfect dress and ensuring all the alterations were perfectly completely. The ladies at the shop made be feel like a princess everytime we were there and truly worked their magic.

There is nowhere else in the world I would rather have gotten my dress. The girls that work here truly become your friends and help you every step of the way. I am from New England and it was just the perfect place to search for a gown, in an old colonial renovated home. Besides the fact that they carry the most gorgeous dresses, it is just a comfortable place to try on your dress in an exceptional atmosphere!

Is it possible to give a higher rating? If your in the market for a gown look no further. White Dress is simply the most amazing place to purchase your gown. I had an wonderful experience working with the owner, Beth, and her staff. The experience was unforgettable -- they made it very special for me and my family! The alterations were impeccable. I can't gush about them any more -- they are simply wonderful!

The White Dress is awesome. They brought in a dress I knew I wanted that they don't usually carry a sample of, but do have the designer. The entire staff makes you feel special. Everything is personalized, the fittings are stress free and every step of the way the girls of the White dress listen! It was the best experience, truly how wedding gown shopping should be- personal, quaint, fun and supportive!! The White Dress is a gem of the Connecticut shoreline.

From the moment I walked into the White Dress by the Shore in Clinton, CT, I was treated like royalty. They even served champagne as I tried on gowns! The whole experience was magical. More importantly, they have a magnificent selection of designer wedding gowns to choose from and the most enthusiastic, helpful, professional staff I have ever encountered. Their service is amazing, and they provided a personal touch that I found sorely lacking in all the other bridal establishments I visited before coming here. The associates I worked with made helpful suggestions but never tried to push me in a direction I didn't want to go, and they truly seemed to genuinely care about each and every bride they worked with. I bought my Anne Barge gown one year before my wedding, and everyone on the staff of White Dress by the Shore - particularly Lindsay! - was a pleasure to work with on my follow up visits and fittings. My gown needed very little alteration when it came in, but their seamstress, Josie, tweaked it with a few minor modifications that made it even more spectacular than it already was. I would highly recommend The White Dress by the Shore without hesitation to any bride searching for the perfect wedding gown! If I could give them more than five stars, I would do so in a heartbeat.

I purchased my headpiece and veil from The White Dress by the Shore. Everyone in the store was super friendly and helpful! I received more complements than I can count on my headpiece. White Dress by the Shore has a beautiful selection of gowns and accessories!

Everyone at The White Dress by the Shore was fantastic. I came in with a small budget, which they fully respected, and they treated me wonderfully. I bought a gorgeous dress from their sample sale at a great price. My mother also ended up buying her dress there, and she could not have been happier. We also bought all of our undergarments from Josie at Beneath the Gown, which is located above TWDBTS. She is very knowledge and professional and a pleasure to work with. We highly recommend this boutique.
