Lovely gowns and the staff were kind but they don't inquire about your budget which I only realized halfway through the appointment when I found a dress that I really loved which was 3 times my budget. Its a heartbreaker because I never would have put it on if I had known what the price is so I feel somewhat manipulated by the lack of transparency. -

Not the Bridal Shopping Experience you want
1) Sent me an email at 7pm the night before my appointment asking I confirm by 9pm or else I risk losing my appointment--ridiculous; 2) I had to wait outside with my party until they all returned back to the shop which was not a minute sooner than my appointment; 3) Who I assume is the manager seemed not genuine at all, didn't really care to inquire about what I was looking for and just insisted I try on as many dresses as possible. Samples in-store are not taken care of (no other bridal shop's dresses were that damaged) and its probably because they rush and shove you in and out of dresses 4) Good luck getting a reply from them. Emailed them and got a 3-word unclear response AFTER following up with them weeks later. When asked for clarity, I got attitude. If you look through their other negative reviews, you'll see the same attitude from employees commenting on the post. Instead of working to improve their customer service they just attack their customers, all of which are saying the same thing. -

At first I was very excited to come to Powder because they exclusively had some of the designers I was hoping to try. The night before my appointment I get an email, not a call, at 7pm asking me to confirm my appointment by 9pm. Seriously?
My friends and I got to the salon and waited outside until they returned not a moment earlier than my appointment.
I tried on so many dresses, including ones that I didn't like on the hanger as I did at other salons in an effort to keep an open mind but I felt as if I was just being shoved, yes shoved, into countless dresses just for the sake of it. Side note--was not impressed how damaged many sample dress were. I get it, things get damaged but other salons took much better care of their sample gowns.
After my appointment, I thanked the team for their time and asked a few questions. No response. When I followed up weeks later, I got a 3 word response that was so blunt and unclear. When I replied asking for clarity, I got sass. No thank you. Not getting a dollar from me. Go elsewhere.. -

Great boutique
Beautiful selection of gowns to try on. They are quite unique compared to most stores, but the setup was amazing! My consultant was so helpful and knowledgeable, not pushy at all! She was able to help me narrow down and find a dress I love! -

Very poor customer service overall. The staff were not warm or inviting, or congratulatory of my recent engagement. When I first walked into my appointment, I was asked the date of my wedding. It is 6 months away, and I was immediately told that most of the dresses require at least 1 year to be custom made by the designers and that many other stores would not accept me as a customer with such a short time line either. This was a discouraging way to tell me that my options would be limited. It felt as though my business was not wanted. Despite that comment, there were a number of dresses available, so I did try some on. But the apparent owner who sat at the desk was making some snobby comments during my appointment ( a few helpful comments too mixed in). It would have been better to just have the one sales person. Another overall fail of this experience is that I wasn't asked what my budget was before the appointment or before we started trying on dresses. So I had to ask prices in the midst of the sales person pulling dresses off the rack that she thought matched my stye. It was awkward to let her know she was way off. -

Found My Dream Dress at Powder!
I visited nearly every bridal salon in Toronto searching for a wedding dress that was modern yet bridal and I finally found it at Powder! The salon is beautiful and their dress selection is unlike any other in Toronto that I saw. I loved how it's only one appointment at a time so it felt really special and intimate. I had wonderful experiences at other bridal salons in Toronto but not until Powder did I feel that a salon really got me and my style. Adriana was wonderful, warm and helpful throughout the whole process. Thank you Adriana for helping me find my dream dress! -

Worst customer service I have ever seen ! I wish I could give them no star! They don’t reply to your emails and they expect you to follow up! Since when the customer follows up on appointment emails and calls! The receptionist is SO disorganized and weird. Don’t even bother calling them...there are sI many other places that will welcome you ! -

I purchased my wedding dress a few weeks ago at Powder Bridal. Adriana and her wonderful staff were so welcoming and kind and with their help I purchased the dress of my dreams. After visiting other boutiques and leaving disappointed, I found this entire experience to be wonderful and found all of their wedding dresses absolutely dreamy. I encourage other brides-to-be to visit this beautiful boutique, as every bride deserves to feel as special as they made me feel. Thank you Adriana and staff! -

Adriana and her team at Powder are amazing. My family and I were so impressed by the boutique, dresses and service. I would highly recommend any bride in Toronto looking for a unique and special dress to visit Powder Bride. Check out my blog post about my experience at www.biancaroseblog.com -

Please do NOT be swayed by any negative reviews on The Knot - they are NOT indicative of what it is like to work with Adriana at Powder.
To put things in perspective, I've never met Adriana in person and have never been to the boutique. I completely TRUSTED her over the phone, through email and by pictures to get my wedding dress. I literally got a BERTA -wedding gown of my dreams, ON SALE, with CONSTANT support throughout the entire process. Purchasing a gown of that price was not an easy thing for me to do, and Adriana made sure I felt comfortable, had all of my questions answered, and made me feel very taken care of.
Highly recommend going here - something i NEVER thought I would find or afford was doable through Powder. Incredible! -
