    Amazing experience!

    The only store in Manitoba that carries an extended range of sample sizes so that plus sized brides can have the same experience as anyone.

    It was so nice walking in there knowing I could try on dresses to get a good feel of what they would look like rather than just holding it up in front of my body.

    Joanne is so nice and professional and has really put thought into the layout of the store. Big spacious dressing rooms WITH FANS!!!! Lots of space for your family and friends to sit while you try on gowns.

    Fantastic experience

    Joanne went above and beyond to make my wedding dress experience joyful and helpful. She opened the store to accommodate an out of town friend to come with me, was patient and kind, and I left with a gorgeous dress. Thrilled!

    Definitely Recommend!

    I found my dress at The Perfect Gown! I felt comfortable the whole time and not rushed at all! I did my alterations through Elaine and although it's pricy, she does amazing work. I wouldn't trust anyone else with my gown! The sizes are inclusive at this shop so you don't need to be told to just picture what you'd look like in the dresses, you can actually try them on. They can order any size from 0 to 30-something I believe. So, they are an amazing place to go for all sizes!

    The Elaine Nightmare!!

    Great place to get a wedding dress. HOWEVER, they have a lady named Elaine for alterations and she does horrible and overpriced work. If you need alternations look elsewhere. Buyer beware!! Working currently with better business bureau. Nothing worse than to pay to fix someone’s mistakes for such an important item for your perfect day. So sad

    My Perfect Gown

    The name of the shop says it all. This shop has so many incredible options that cater to mid to plus-size people! From grad to bridal they seemed to have it all. The ladies at the shop took the time to hear exactly what I wanted and found me the perfect dress right on my budget!

    Above & Beyond

    This was the last dress shop I went & was very certain I wasn't going to have my "moment" in finding the one. They helped me pick soo many options & had a seamstress on site to bring my vision & customizations to life right then & there. She made an off the rack dress into my dream dress with ease.

    Must-Try Salon for all Plus-Size Brides

    Only exclusively plus size salon in MB, sample gowns from size 18-32. This place was recommended to me by another Bridal salon so I had to try it out. Only downside was that my mom and my brother weren't able to be in there with me at the same time due to COVID-19 Restrictions, but the owner allowed them to switch out with each dress.
    It was absolutely awesome to have a store where I cold try on the dresses and need to be clipped up because the sample gown was too big.
    I also really likes that they have a tailor on site that assists with any alterations you may need and she gives you a quote for it right then and there.
    My family enjoyed our time at my appointment that we ended up walking out having purchased 2 dresses! My wedding dress and a mother-of-the-bride dress!

    Horrible Experience

    This store is sloppy, disorganized, and will make you stressed. Suggest avoiding it. Ordered my dress in time, asked them if I could do a fitting in January for my April wedding they said no. They recommended start of March, but when I came in they had the wrong dress size ordered for me, first it was 4 sizes too big, then they tried to bring another one in off the rack and it was still 2 sizes too big. Four weeks from my wedding and now they are ordering a new dress and can’t guarantee when it will be in. Then they said the reason my dress didn’t fit is because my body proportions are all wrong. I was in tears by the time I got home: no dress and the store made me feel like my body is the problem. This is a terrible store, no bride should have to experience this!!

    Amazing - with flaws

    Bought my dress here in Autumn 2018 (for my Autumn 2019 wedding), although they have some rules such as the no fragrances - it's completely understandable given the reason.
    As for the dresses, I was able to try most of them on so the only problem is the lack of air flow in the change rooms - which I'm sure is a general problem whenever you go shopping for dresses.
    Overall lovely experience and wide selection for us plus size women.
