Sophie's Gown Shoppe

I was dreading shopping for a gown, which I know is weird, but I have old-fashioned tastes, which excluded me from so many modern gowns that I felt like it was going to be impossible to find THE DRESS without getting one custom made or spending way over my budget. Huge shoutout to Amanda, who took one look at my Pinterest board and immediately grasped that I was looking for a timeless gown with classic lines and somehow found one without any lace, sequins or tulle(these materials chafe my skin and I just can’t deal with it). This was a unicorn hunt, and I have felt ashamed that I don’t like the feel of so many fabrics and dresses(I have sensory troubles, even tags in clothing are intolerable for me), but Amanda was immediately enthusiastic, she took the challenge on as a personal mission and was just as excited as I was when I found my dress! It fit perfectly right off the rack other than needing some hemming, how great is that? I could not have asked for better service, I felt like I’d made a friend when all was said and done. The whole team was so kind and accommodating, all of them helped me feel like I wasn’t annoying or a pain to work with. If you want a team that will take excellent care of you, this is the shop for you!! They also had a rainbow of formal gowns to choose from, they’re not only a bridal shop!

I cannot say enough good things about Sophie's! This was my fourth establishment and my second "chain." I cannot say enough about Sam, she is beyond fantastic. So welcoming and happy, her sparkle is infectious. No matter how many dresses you attempt, no matter how many visits you need to come back to make your decision, she is there, kindly waiting to help with whatever you may need. Out of all of the establishments I have been to, Sam, far exceeds anyone I have interacted with. You cannot go wrong here.

I had the best experience at Sophie's Gown Shoppe. Found my dream dress there, when i thought i wasnt even looking. The staff are amazing, helpful and super friendly! I highly recommend!

Sophie's was the 2nd shop I visited on my long search for a wedding gown. I did find a few I liked and learnt a lot about styles I did and didn't like, as well as possibilities for accessorizing a dress. Service was also great.

In the end, Sophie's had a lot of classic looks at fair price points which I think most brides would love, I however was looking for something really unique.

This gown shop was my favourite one out of the many that I attended. They were very organized and helped me find the perfect dress out of their wide selection. They listened to what I was really wanting and added some extra selection.

We were shopping for a dress during the peak of COVID so it was hard not being able to touch any dresses on the rack or browse due to their policy at the time, but they had a good idea of their inventory and took my wants and needs into consideration and listened to my friends/family when they suggested things as well.

My experience at Sophie's was great. Cassie found the best dress for me and it was the first one I tried on. We spent the whole appointment trying to top the enchanting feeling I had in the beautiful ball gown that captured my exact vision of my wedding dress. It came in faster than their estimated date and was well within my budget. I felt like a princess on my first day and couldn't have asked for a better experience.

I went to Sophie's to find the perfect dress, and they blew me away when they brought it out. I'm not the conventional 'white dress' kind of bride, and wanted a black wedding dress. They didn't disappoint when they showed me the dress of my dreams! It was like the ladies could read my mind! So easy to work with, really pleasant staff, and the alterations were just perfect. Thank you for making me look absolutely stunning on my special day!

My dress was everything I hoped for and more, AND within budget!! I'm so pleased with how it held up and I got so many compliments on my dress!! Thanks so much!

Sophie’s bridal in Kitchener!! Can’t say enough nice things I ordered my gown in the middle of COVID and they couldn’t have been more accommodating with what was going on in the world!! From emails to video chats they were great !

Everyone I encountered at Sophie's Gown Shoppe made sure to make me feel special! The seamstress really listened to what I wanted and helped guide me in the decision to remove the boning in my dress to ensure it for me perfectly!
