Saida and Chantal gave me the wedding dress experience I had always dreamed about. After going to a bigger "mega-wedding" store and being less than impressed by the selection and service, my sisters, mom and bridesmaids came with me to Nouvelle Vogue. I absolutely loved walking around the showroom and pulling the European couture dresses I wanted to try. Though wedding dress shopping can be challenging, I had such a fun experience there.
Nouvelle was the first place I went when trying on wedding dresses. The atmosphere is amazing and Saida and Chantel go above and beyond to make you feel comfortable. They helped select all the dresses I tried on. I had an idea of what I wanted but they encouraged me to try this beautiful blush silk organza Cymbeline dress that was nothing like what I thought I wanted and it was PERFECT! I went to 5 other stores in the bay area and NO ONE cares more about the bride then Nouvelle does. I bought the Cymbeline dress a few months later. When it came time for alterations, I went to other places first and knew I had to work with Saida and Chantel again. I would never have known about the French bustle without them (it looks way better than a traditional bustle). Nouvelle should definitely be one of the shops you visit. Its the ideal wedding dress experience......
I had a great experience with Nouvelle Vogue. Their dresses are just spectacular! The staff was very very helpful in finding the right style for me.
Beautiful unique wedding gowns (by European couture designers), amazing flower/feather hair clips which you can ask to customize as well, adorable shop, great service.
Me and one of the bridesmaids was in San Mateo California visiting a few friends so we decided on visiting Nouvelle Vogue. We made prearrangements that day with them so they were ready for us to come in. They thanked us for coming in to the shop and began showing us their different lines of bridesmaid dresses. We found just the right one after a few moments of glancing around. The assistance was very well at the shop and they weren't pushy and they did not rush us. It ended up being a real nice place to go.
If you want a wedding dress unlike everyone else's, but in a good way, go to Nouvelle Vogue. Their dresses are incredible - well designed, beautifully beaded, well made, and worth the prices they charge (which start around $2500 and go up to $6000). However, I couldn't really personally justify spending so much so I gave up the most beautiful dress I found for a $750 one elsewhere. The Nouvelle Vogue dress was beautiful, too - just the right sort of 1930s inspired romantic beaded dress I was looking for. (It's a Jenny Packham in case you want to find the same.)
I spent a few hours with Chantal and Saida a few weeks ago in their beautiful salon. Being in the wedding industry, I thought I knew a lot about bridal gowns. After listening to them, I realized how little I knew. Talking with them, I learned that it is better to select the gown first and then choose the venue. I'm changing the advice that I give to my clients about securing the venue prior to selecting the gown. The gown will dictate the feel of the wedding. Not only do they offer one of a kind gowns, but they provide the ultimate in service. If you want excellent service and one of a kind bridal designs and accessories, I highly recommend Nouvelle Vogue.
