    Outstanding service and atmosphere

    I visited Modern Bride as my first ever bridal store, I was floored by the beautiful store, the dresses and the staff. They were extremely accommodating, fun to work with and helped me decide on my final dress. I went back for a final fitting and felt like a princess and the overall experience was incredible!

    Dress of My Dreams!

    I purchased my wedding dress with TMB back in July 2021 and just got to wear it this past weekend!!!
    It was PERFECT.
    I had the most wonderful experience with Emma. As a plus size bride I was extremely nervous to go dress shopping. Emma made me so comfortable and had tricks and tips for me to see how the dress would fit even if the sample sizes were a bit to small. I walked in wanting to try on Maudie by Willowby and it was the exact dress I left with. When you know, you know! I had so many compliments this weekend and everyone said it was me in a dress. 🥰💕

    Fantastic Experience!!

    I can not say enough about my experience with The Modern Bride. When I had my appointment, I had previously tried on dresses somewhere else. At the previous place, I was limited to only 5 dresses as a street size 12. My experience was so much different at TMB. I had a plethora of choices, almost every dress I pulled off the rack I was able to try on and get a good picture of what my true size would look like. Laila was all I could ask for. She really listened to my wishes, put dresses back I wasn't interested in and was my own personal hype girl in the change room. She also made suggestions about different dresses that weren't originally on my radar. The dress I ended up purchasing was one she brought in for me to try on! I am grateful for my experience with TMB. It was such a refreshing moment to not be worrying about my size. Thank you Laila for making my day just that much more special!!

    100% Recommended!

    My experience at The Modern Bride was everything I dreamt of. The dresses are obviously gorgeous but the experience while you’re there is what I was wanting. So personal and beautiful. And they really know exactly what to show you when you explain what you’re looking for. I dealt mainly with Alicia and she was absolutely great!

    Absolutely Amazing!

    As soon as I walked into TMB I knew it would be where I would find my dress. My consultant was so welcoming and took the time to listen to what I was looking for. The dress loft is BEAUTIFUL with such a variety of styles. I originally thought my dress was going to be A-line, but my consultant asked me to try on a different figure and I am so thankful she did. THANK YOU TMB for such an incredible experience.

    Beautiful studio with amazing service

    From the minute I walked in it was such a great experience! Donna met with me and we talked through what I was looking for before going up to their beautiful loft to look at dress options. There are so many beautiful dresses and I loved that they had Canadian designers! I was so happy to choose my dress at this salon and was thrilled to see that they plant a tree with every dress purchased! They really understand the needs of modern brides! Totally worth a trip there if you’re looking for the perfect dress and experience!

    Beautiful boutique with incredible selection and service

    The Modern Bride was the first bridal boutique I visited and while I did not end up getting my dress here (though my #2 was at this store), I'm so thankful for the incredibly positive experience I had here. Not only is the boutique GORGEOUS but there is an amazing selection of dress and the staff are so lovely. I would highly recommend this boutique to any bride looking for their dream dress. Thank you so much to the staff here.

    The most beautiful selection of gowns!

    I had the best experience picking out my dream dress at The Modern Bride! My consultant was amazing and the selection they have is truly gorgeous. After finding my dream Pronovias dress, I realized it had a matching cape veil. They were able to order it for me and it became my favourite part of my gown! Thank you TMB for helping me feel absolutely beautiful on my wedding day!
