Testimonials

I had the best experience here finding my dress. Bethann was so attentive and helped me narrow down my likes and dislikes after I came in having no idea what I wanted. As a plus size bride, I was nervous about not having much to choose from, but Celebration had a great selection with so many different styles. I had it narrowed down to two dresses and needed some time to figure out which one I liked more. I even went to another bridal shop that had nothing similar to the two dresses I loved, so I ended up back at Celebration saying yes to my dream dress. I will always recommend Celebration to any bride because of the wonderful service I received.

I cannot tell you how satisfied I was with my experience here. We were a last minute appointment, we called that day and were able to come in same day. The owner was so sweet and helpful. Our consultant was Jenna. JENNA WAS AMAZING! She was kind, listened, and really helped me find my dress. I am a plus sized bride and there was an amazing selection with decent prices. Jenna was patient with me and really made me comfortable (being naked in front of her and all). Coming from a different boutique to Celebration was the best decision I made that day! All the consultants that day were very friendly. I recommend 100/10 to go here and find your dress. As a side note, we were also under a strict budget but they made it work. So happy with my experience here!

If you're in the market for a wedding dress, you NEED to go to Celebration! The whole process with Celebration felt like the stars had aligned and everything was simply meant to be. They were, of course, the only shop on the East Coast that carried the dress I fell in love with on TikTok the day after I got engaged, so I booked a the first available appointment. By the time I arrived at Celebration, I had found a dress in DC that I thought was almost certainly The One, but I couldn't commit until I had seen the Elizabeth Lee. Well, I was right to bide my time, the second I put it on, I knew it was perfect for my vision. From start to finish, this appointment was the absolute best experience out of the 5 stores I visited. The store owner even left a bridal show early to make sure the dress was back in the shop for my visit and the entire team helped me customize it even further to fit the dramatic vision I had planned. Alexis was so patient and eager to help and made sure I felt absolutely beautiful the entire time.

If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. Alexis was INCREDIBLE! She made me feel beautiful in every dress I tried on. She was very patient as I struggled with indecision but allowed me to have a moment to see each dress before sharing with my guests. She grabbed new dresses in my style that I also loved and gave lots of guidance on potential alterations. All the ladies at Celebration were amazing. I cannot recommend this business enough!

Amazing wedding dress shop! I was personally having a hard time finding a dress… Celebration Bridal not only worked me in during a short period of time, but they kept the store open late twice so my mom could come see potential dresses… I still couldn’t decide and was starting to feel defeated until Leecy sat down with us and listened to a little of what I was hoping for… she was confident that I would find a dress during their trunk sale a few weeks later.
She was 100% current. I fell in love with a dress and couldn’t turn back… it was the best combination of romantic and boho meets classic and timeless! I am so thankful we went to Celebration Bridal! I never once felt “pressure to make the sale” from them - instead I felt support, encouragement and expertise!

I am SO thankful that I went to Celebration to search for the dress for me! I had went to another shop before them and felt rushed and not truly cared for. I was able to work with the owner, Leecy! She was absolutely AMAZING!!! She was understanding, patient, kind, and supportive! I felt so comfortable with her! She gave me a variety of dresses to try on since I’m indecisive and never once rushed me! She made me try on the dress I chose 3 times with a veil and barrette to make sure it was the one! You will NOT regret going here to find your dress! Thank you so much, Leecy!

I LOVED my experience at Celebration. This was my first time ever shopping for a wedding dress and it felt so easy because of my guide through it all, Stephanie. She helped me find my voice with my voice entourage that was kind of overpowering what I loved, she made the experience so much fun, and really cared about what I wanted as a bride. She took the time to really get to know me and catered to my vision. In true bridal fashion, I ended up with the most gorgeous dress that was the complete opposite of what I originally wanted and I cannot wait for it to come in. I could not have had a better time and can’t thank Stephanie and Leecy enough for all of their help!

I don’t typically write reviews about businesses, whether it is bad or good, but I had to write one about them! I’ve been to two bridal boutiques on separate occasions before deciding to try Celebration bridal and I’m so glad that I did. I loved the experience I had with them! Jessica was the one who helped me and she was amazing! We spoke on the phone briefly about what kind of dress style I like, where I’m getting married at, my budget, etc. to help narrow down the choices. Once we arrived, she already had several dresses for me to try on. Her personality and all made me feel comfortable and made it fun during the whole process! I was stuck between two dresses and she helped me make my final decision by providing a veil and a bouquet to make it feel real and once I made my decision, she provided ideas on how to make alterations to the dress. I found my dress on her second pick for me and best of all, it was way below my budget! Thank you so much Jessica!!!

I am ecstatic I found Celebration Bridal! The staff were beyond helpful and patient, listened to what I wanted, and offered professional input where I felt I needed it. After having tried 4 other bridal shops, no one else had the quality of service or gowns to match what I found here. I would recommend this shop to any bride. I intend to have my future husband visit as well!

Rachel L.

LOVED my experience at Celebration Bridal! They were so accommodating and made me feel SO special for my entire appointment. I can't recommend them enough AND I walked away with the perfect dress! Thank you Jessica & Leecy for all your help.

I went to three different places before I went to Celebration Bridal, I’m so glad I came here!! I had the best experience with Jessica!! She was absolutely wonderful!! She asked me to try on a fitted dress, that I haven’t before and let me tell you I fell instantly IN LOVE!!! I’m so glad I took her advice and tired it on!! I’m so excited and cannot wait till my wedding in October 2021!! Thank you so much!!

Nicole H.

Celebration Bridal was fantastic! I wouldn’t recommend any other place to go. Their selection is HUGE and the people there become instant family the second you walk through the door. Great Experience overall!!

Bella C.

Celebration bridal was amazing! I was very excited to go to celebration bridal to find my dress! My sister got hers there and I knew I wanted to as well. The staff is great and very helpful! I didn’t know how it would go trying to find a dress during the pandemic but to went very smoothly. I enjoyed the one on one time. I felt very welcomed and I didn’t feel rushed. I found my dream dress back in May and I can’t wait to wear it June 2021! I ordered my dress and it came in very quick. Thank you celebration bridal for everything!

Kelsie M.

Celebration Bridal is wonderful! My family and I had traveled out of town to originally visit another bridal boutique in the area. After not having any luck in finding anything I loved, they recommended we check out Celebration Bridal. The staff at Celebration Bridal was extremely accommodating and took my family in for an appointment last minute. Jessica was very personable and did a great job assisting me throughout the entire process. The dress selection they have is wonderful and despite being a last minute appointment, I never felt rushed. I was able to take my time and try on all the dresses that caught my eye and show my family each one to get their opinions. I am so thankful I chose to visit Celebration Bridal and that this is where is said YES to my dream dress! I highly recommend them and thank you Jessica for making dress shopping such a wonderful experience!

Lindsey K.

I wish I could give more than 5 stars! Wonderful place to find your wedding dress!

I got my dream dress from Celebration and we truly celebrated it!! The staff is so welcoming, patient and kind! They made sure that I got exactly what I wanted and made adjustments as needed! Will 100% recommend to friends and family that are looking for their wedding dresses!

Ellen T.

Had the ABSOLUTE BEST experience at Celebration! They made the process super easy and fun! They had exceptional service and EVERYONE made you feel special in some way! Absolutely LOVED Natasha and found my PERFECT gown!! Will totally recommend them to anyone!!!

Brittany W.

I visited Celebration on Oct. 30 & had the best experience. My mom & grandma came with me & still can’t stop talking about our experience! Before my appointment at Celebration, I went to another bridal shop here in Lynchburg & I thought I found THE dress there, but something kept telling me to go to my appointment at Celebration before making any final decisions. So, I went. I walked in, was greeted by Stephanie & told that she would be my consultant for my appointment. She really seemed like she wanted to understand what styles, colors, & fabrics I was/wasn’t into. I tried on dress after dress & they all looked STUNNING on me, but I still wasn’t feeling 100% on anything yet. I went back and looked & saw THE dress. I asked her to try it on & I fell in love the moment I turned around. Stephanie told me which dresses looked good & which ones she wasn’t 100% on, but she made me feel soooo beautiful & confident in this dress.  I had a picture of a dress JUST like the one I purchased in my phone as inspo so when I saw it hanging up, I knew right away that this one was it & I got a matching veil as well. Stephanie was patient, sweet, very funny, & a PLEASURE to work with. I’d recommend Celebration AND Stephanie a million times over again! I know I’m gonna look beautiful on our big day! 

Nyla M.

I had a fantastic and very personalized experience here. I got a dress that I didn't expect that I would LOVE, but my maid of honor picked out the dress of my dreams here! They were incredibly kind and patient, since I wanted to call several people before saying yes to the dress. They also were willing to work with my budget! I loved going to Celebration Bridal and am so excited to marry my best friend in the most beautiful dress!

Megan B.

I found my dream dress back in March and everyone at Celebrations were amazing! They definitely took me out of my comfort zone and I tried on styles that I never knew I liked, I ended up with my dream dress which was COMPLETELY different than the dress I thought I wanted. 10/10 recommend Celebration!

Cassidy O.

I had an incredible time at Celebration Bridal. Unlike other bridal shops I had been to, Celebration had exceptional service. From the moment I walked in the door I felt relaxed and important. Two traits I was honored to feel when picking out my dream dress. Stephanie did an amazing job assisting me throughout the entire process. She made me feel confident and beautiful, she also did not make me feel rushed but ensured I was comfortable (by offering if I needed water, waiting to my friends to arrive, allowing me to facetime my future mother in law, and my treating me more then just a client but a friend) and she gave me the opportunity to look at every dress they had in the store before trying on (a lot of other bridal stores I visited really only let me grab 5 at a time which made me feel a lot of pressure) I am so thankful I chose to visit Celebration and that this is where is said YES to my dream dress!! Thank you Stephanie and Celebration for making this a smooth and exciting part of my wedding process!!!

Gabi C.

I’ve been letting Celebration Bridal dress me for all of life’s greatest events since I was in High School. This shop and these employees are like family to me and that’s exactly what I was treated as during my shopping experience. Bethann was patient with me (and the crew I brought with me) and made me feel beautiful in every dress I tried on, ultimately leading me to my dream dress. The Experience was so fun and easy even in the midst of COVID. Everyone go get your wedding attire at Celebration Bridal!!!!

Amanda M.

Celebration bridal was absolutely phenomenal in finding my perfect dress! It was the first and only shop that I went to. Leecy was so great in finding dresses that were exactly what I was wanting to try, and even gave me options that weren’t what I was thinking. I ended up getting a dress much different than I was expecting thanks to the staff at Celebration Bridal!

Rachel N.

Jessica and Natasha were absolutely fabulous to work with. I went in with an idea in my head of the dress I wanted and left with a polar opposite! They are amazing! They helped me pick the perfect dress and were so patient with the whole process! 100% recommend these ladies for your bridal and tux needs!

Megan I.

We had a great experience at Celebration bridal. Being plus size and trying to find a wedding dress is different, but they had a great selection of plus size options, everyone there was so nice and they were all willing to help. I found my perfect dress there and they put me in contact with someone to do alteration. Overall they are great in all aspects!

Amanda C.

I cannot day enough good things about everyone at Celebration bridal. They listened to everything I said and picked out dresses for me that I didn’t even know I would like. They talked me thorough potential alterations and clipped the dresses really well so I could see how they would fit. I went to a few other places afterwards and no one explained things to me or helped me like they did at Celebration bridal. Also, the dresses are really nice quality and so affordable. I would recommend them as a must visit to anyone looking for a bridal gown.

Celebration made my dress hunt a success! We had traveled from Richmond to visit another local shop that unfortunately I didn’t find my perfect dress. We called Celebration and they were so lovely and fit me in last minute on a SATURDAY (which I know isn’t always easy). They ladies in there were professional and personable. The shop was immaculate and the staff was sure to follow all state and local guidelines to make the experience easy and safe for us all. Jessica is a PRO. She knew exactly what to pick off the slight idea of what I wanted for a dress. She did an amazing job of making it an amazing experience and helped to make sure I got exactly what I wanted! I cannot recommend them enough to any bride looking to find her perfect dress! The ladies on the shop are just amazing and truly know what they are doing! Cannot wait to pick up my dress in December!!

At Celebration Bridal you get a memorable experience of finding the dress of your dreams. My dreams are fairly non traditional and they not only embraced it, they helped me find a dress that I had dreamed of since I was a little girl. All of the girls are so friendly and supportive. You really can’t rival the customer service they provide. I am so pleased with my dress, as is my fiancé, and they helped us find something that set the tone for the rest of our intimate gathering when we get married. I would recommend to any bride to be to check out Celebration Bridal if you are looking for a lovely, unforgettable experience while finding your dress.’

Katie P.

I would give 10 stars if I could. There is not enough amazing things I could say about Celebration, the owner, and the staff. They managed to make my experience SO personalized. I went in thinking I wanted something, but Jessica encouraged me to go out of my comfort zone and try on something different, which led me to my dream dress! I was so amazed at the amount of variety she keeps in her shop, from sizes to styles. I was even able to take my dress home the night I fell in love with it! Even after purchasing my dress, she worked with me through alterations and finding additions that I want for my dress. She truly just wants her brides to be happy! The experience is so fun, but also professional. I tried on tons of dresses at different boutiques. Nothing compares to Celebration. Thank you Jessica and the rest of the Celebration family, I have so much appreciation for you!

I've known Leecy for years and have bought a wedding dress and two formal dresses from her many years ago. When my daughter got engaged, there was no hesitation as to where we would go for her dress! We scheduled her appt and when we arrived Leecy was there but said she could only stay for a few minutes but turned us over to the very capable hands of Bethanne. However a few minutes turnes into two hours as Leecy and Bethanne helped Kayla find just the right dress. It was Bethanne who found "the one". Leecy placed the veil (a beautiful Celebrations design) on Kayla's head and then hugged me as I wept with joy at the sight of my baby girl all grown up as only another mother could understand the emotions overwhelming me. I cannot say enough positive comments about this experience, and every other experience I have had with the staff at Celebrations. They are patient, kind, creative, and caring. I forgot to mention that last year they fitted my special needs son for a tux for the Night To Shine Prom!! Getting his measurements was like trying to nail jello to a tree but they were SO patient, kind, and fast! Again, you cannot go wrong with this shop and with these folks!

Tracey B.

As a wedding photographer, I hear about other wedding vendors my couples work with throughout the planning process. So I know exactly how they feel about their experience each vendor. I have to say that ALL of my past brides who worked with Celebration Bridal have only had AMAZING things to say about their service.

Hearing how well they treat their brides and what beautiful gowns they have to offer make me so thankful for our local wedding industry! If you are in need of a wedding dress make sure you stop by this bridal dress shop!!

Celebration bridal was such an amazing experience. I felt welcomed and cozy as soon as I walked in the door. I had previously tried on about 6-8 dresses and couldn’t find one that was truly “me”. My consultant, Natasha, helped me find my wedding gown! It is absolutely perfect. She’s such a sweet girl on top of being such a great bridal consultant. They have a wonderful selection of bridal gowns, it seems like there’s no end! I fully recommend celebration bridal and 100% recommend asking for Natasha!

Rating Celebration Bridal five stars doesn't even do it justice. I don't normally write a lot of reviews but this felt necessary. For any brides in the area this bridal shop is worth checking out. I'm from Roanoke. Jessica was simply amazing and so very helpful! Myself, my future sister-in-law, and one of my bridesmaids visited Celebration Bridal in March right before everything closed down, and I can't say enough good things about my experience. Before my appointment, I was having an awful time finding "the one" wedding dress and I had been to two other stores. The experience at celebration bridal was perfect and a ton of fun. You can tell the staff really loves what they do. I'm happy to say I found my perfect dress, and they've been an absolute pleasure to work with. They made me feel special and not just like another "sale" like I did at a certain large chain bridal shop. One of my favorite things was that they have a great selection of unique dresses. I'm so very excited to wear my dress on my wedding day! My fiance and I have waited almost 10 years to get married and this dress feels perfect to wear on that special day.

Christina N.

I can’t thank Natasha enough for the amazing bridal experience I received this past weekend! It was fun, laid back, and enjoyable for all. I am so glad I made the trip to your shop and found my dress! Thank you Celebration Bridal for making my dress dreams come true!!

Amber B.

I've been following Celebration Bridal for over a year (before I was engaged) and always loved the dresses highlighted on social media and the friendly attitude of the bride. My in-person experience on June 12th confirmed I was correct in loving them! I had the BEST experience with my bridal party and consultant Jessica picking dresses and trying on accessories. In the end, I probably tried on 15 gorgeous dresses and found 'The One' on my 5th try. I continued to try on other dresses and Jessica was so helpful in hand-picking looks that matched my style and personality, customizing according to my preferences. I felt so comfortable with her the entire time and there was tons of laughter and smiles throughout the appointment. I loved that we were able to have a private appointment - it made it easier seeing the dress in natural light and moving around in it. I would 100% recommend Celebration Bridal to all of my friends, and I drove 3.5 hours from DC! I ended up finding the perfect dress (after lots of tears from myself and my party I knew it was the one!) and can't wait to walk down the aisle and blow away my future husband!

I was so amazed at the amount of variety she keeps in her shop, from sizes to styles. I was even able to take my dress home the night I fell in love with it! Even after purchasing my dress, she worked with me through alterations and finding additions that I want for my dress. She truly just wants her brides to be happy! The experience is so fun, but also professional. I tried on tons of dresses at different boutiques. Nothing compares to Celebration. Thank you Jessica and the rest of the Celebration family, I have so much appreciation for you!

Cailyn H.

I loved my whole experience here! They treated me amazingly! I had my eye on a certain gown but wasn’t sure, I had never tried any dresses on. They helped me find my gown and made me feel so beautiful! These ladies are amazing I highly recommend! Thank y’all for everything !! Can’t wait to wear my dream dress!
