Melange Bridal

I unfortunately do not recommend you spend your hard earned money at this bridal boutique. They are known to other local brides as a plus-size friendly store but are far from that. Not to mention it is not standard to have to pay a deposit for a bridal appointment and also be ignored for an extended time when arriving. Sucks to pay money to go to a bridal boutique that will ignore you and greet other patrons.

The first red flag should've been the deposit required because there are many many many other boutiques that do not require that. Sample sizes do not go above 14 and they have very very few available in those sizes. You pay a deposit for an appointment where you receive NO guidance. My friends consultant didn't even ask what styles she was interested in when she did finally approach us.

The staff was friendly. The store has nice dresses but their racks were extremely crowded and the bride was unable to try anything on as a walk in. There is no appointment required to walk in and take a look around but you do need an appointment to try anything on. The looking around is also awkward because of the store set up. There is a dressing area right in the middle of their selection; so if someone has a bridal party there, it's incredibly awkward to look at anything on those racks.

My daughter bought two dresses here. The first dress ended up too small after one year. The seamstress worked hard to make it work, but she didn't feel beautiful anymore and she was in tears. I immediately suggested we purchase a new dress. The people in the shop went out of their way to find the perfect dress two weeks before the wedding. Needless to say, the dress is stunning and the alterations will be done just in time. They made my baby happy for her very special day!

I came in with a dress in mind and unfortunately the dress I wanted was already taken off the market because they were going to discontinue making it. However, Ivana did an AMAZING job finding similar dresses if not even more beautiful! She was so friendly and talked me through every step and changes that could be made to the dress. Best experience ever! I am so excited for my wedding after saying yes to the dress!

I went to 8 different wedding stores around Austin before I found Melange, and then found my wedding dress there during my first appointment. The staff are all super friendly, the store is clean and orderly, and their dresses are much more classy than in the others stores I went to. Looking forward to picking my dress up from alterations next week!

This was an amazing bridal experience. After have such a bad experience with our first appointment at pronovious, this was a very refreshing appointment. The person helping us had already pulled several dresses before we had arrived and allowed us to look around the store to add to our selection. They have a wide variety of dresses and all sizes. They helped us put on each dress and also pinned each dress until it fit like a glove. This was a great overall Bridal experience!

This bridal boutique is AMAZING! And Lauren literally walks on water! From start to finish she made me feel special and listened to everything I had to say and all the feedback from me and my group. We were actually treated like royalty and I found my dream dress! Highly recommend for such a fun experience!

Had a great experience here, even though this is not where I wound up saying yes to the dress! Ivana was soooo nice, knowledgeable, and professional- she was amazing and I would definitely recommend making a bridal appt here! The one thing I thought was odd was that this is the only boutique that charged us for the appt- all other places only charge if you're a no show or cancel late etc.

I can't say enough good things about Melange Bridal. The store itself is beautiful and comfortable, with a beautiful and unique selection of wedding dresses. The ladies are extraordinary, and Sonya is excellent with alterations. I can't say enough positive things about Melange; it is honestly the best bridal store in Austin.

Thank you Melange for helping me find my dream dress. I felt like such a princess on my wedding day and it was all because you had the patience for me to try on 100 dresses lol! I had a great experience at the salon and also with the communication!

Loved Melange Bridal! I had been searching for a dress for a few months. I had reached out to Melange and was connected with Ivana. Ivana was fantastic! I have been a picky bride from the start, and was continuously narrowing my interests and desired look down. Ivana was very patient, professional AND knew/understood exactly where I was going in my style interests!

She truly understands fashion, while listening to her brides and focusing on their goals for the desired look. I highly recommend Melange Bridal and working with Ivana. 5 stars!

The ladies at Melange Bridal are all very sweet, knowledgeable and professional. My stylist took my preferences and pulled multiple great options. They've been great during the couple alterations appointments I've had so far. Definitely recommend!

Sonja in alterations was so nice, professional, and efficient. We loved working with her and were in and out so quick for our appointments. Overall, I'm very happy with the experience! Loved the dress selections and love my dress even more!

I scheduled a number of other appointments in and around Austin, and was so discouraged by the quality of service and overall experience but thankfully, Melange was my last stop! Originally, I learned about Melange because they carried one of my favorite designers. For a few weeks they held one particular dress for me before my actual appointment, and when I came in, they had already pulled several dresses that matched my style. Vanessa, the stylist I worked with was a dream and it's clear that their in-house seamstress is excellent. HIGHLY recommend this boutique. I am so thankful I found my dream dress here.

Our stylist Ivana was great! She was friendly and helpful and gave us the experience we wanted! She pulled all the dresses, and helped my daughter change. You might be thinking "so what?" but that was NOT our experience at another bridal shop. She spoke to me and my daughter about what she liked and pulled dresses that fit the description. She helped my daughter narrow it down when she was torn between two dresses. Ivana, didn't push anything on us and even gave us suggestions for people to call for alterations (they were booked too far out for us).

The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because they were a little pricey on the accessories. $200 for straps, $200 for a short veil, etc. It was a great experience and my daughter said Yes to the dress!

Melange helped make finding my wedding dress a wonderful experience. Vanessa was so sweet and was there to offer words of encouragement every step of the way. When it came down to the final 2 dresses they even offered to put one on a mannequin so I could see them side by side. I was so indecisive at the end, but that was the push I needed to go with the dress that I had fallen in love with, despite differing opinions of family. Thank you again Vanessa and the other ladies of Melange. I am head over heels in love with my dress and I wouldn't have found another one like it anywhere else.

Amazing experience! My consultant was Vanessa. From our conversation when booking the appointment she already had a selection of dresses pulled when I had arrived. They have an assortment of beautiful dresses and I ended up choosing the dress she had originally pulled for me. I could not have been happier with my experience!

What a wonderful experience! Melange had a friendly and helpful staff and they welcomed us in ready to celebrate this this exciting moment in my soon to be daughter-in-law's life. There were so many stunning gowns to choose from and all reasonably priced. This place deserves to be number one in reviews.a must stop!

LOVED Melange Bridal! I said YES to the dress and was assisted by such helpful, fun staff. Thank you for helping me make my special day all that more special!

I absolutely loved my experience here. This was my third bridal shop and Ivana made it amazing! I found my dream dress and can not wait to get married!

I had an amazing experience at Melange Bridal. My mom was only in town a few days and we passed their bridal store while leaving another. We asked if we could just peek in and see some of their options. We were super lucky, and I was able to try on dresses since there were no other appointments scheduled for a few hours. Ivana and Vanessa were amazing!

I never felt pressured to try on anything that wasn't my style or out of my price range. They have such a large, modern collection of designers and styles. Every dress they carry is so unique and elegant.

Ivanna helped find the wedding dress of my dreams. She made the entire experience so special. The dress selection was amazing as well as the staff! Must go!

Melange Bridal was very helpful in finding me the perfect dress for my special day. Vanessa was great. Highly recommend this salon.

Terrible customer service. Consultant did not select any dresses ahead of time even after being provided pictures. The consultant didn't really give me any attention during the appointment or suggest any dresses that may be a good match. I would never buy a dress here after they were so rude.

Melange was the second bridal salon I visited when searching for my wedding dress. The atmosphere and employees were very welcoming. It's not a huge salon, but definitely has an amazing selection and a large variety to choose from. It's important to feel comfortable when dress shopping and I never felt anything less than. The last dress I tried on there ended up being THE ONE! My whole experience at Melange was seamless. I would and have recommended Melange a thousand times over!

I came here with my best friend about a week ago and was just a little disappointed with how the appointment went - the stylist was okay but didn't really do a great job of bringing dress that would narrow down our options. The dresses we were shown would need major alterations to be wearable. The biggest flub for this appointment was scheduling it for one time (2:00 pm) and writing it down for another (12:00 pm, which was the requested time).

There was no phone call to confirm the appointment and they even misspelled my friend's not uncommon name. so when we made plans to arrive at 2:00 pm because of an automated text and didn't show up at 12:00 pm when they were expecting us, my friend had to scramble to get ready because she lives approximately an hour away. They fit us in at 1:30 pm, but this really set the tone for the entire appointment and my friend was stressed and frustrated by the poor communication. Not a good look for helping to create a happy experience.

I cannot say enough good things about my experience working with Melange Bridal. I was a little intimidated about the process (because Ahhh! I'm getting married! And I've certainly never worn a wedding dress before) but Ivana the owner was warm, extremely helpful, and so much fun to work with! I told her some of my preferences and when we arrived for my appointment she had hand-selected 5 gowns that were aligned with what I was looking for.

Being the time of COVID, my girlfriends and sister-in-law joined in by text & zoom call. Ivana helped my mom set up the zoom and send photos via text--everyone fell in love with all of the dresses. They were all positively stunning! At the end, it was clear that the very first dress I tried on was the winner. I was amazed she was able to nail it so well!

I was also surprised that the cost was quite reasonable, given that the shop is very high-end. I've connected with Ivana a few times now regarding some follow-up calls, and she is just wonderful--positively sunny, & you can tell she really cares about making every bride feel their best. I'm so glad we chose Melange and I can't wait for the big day!

WORST EXPERIENCE. Buying your wedding dress is already a little stressful, especially for a first time bride. I am a curvy bride and they knew my exact sizing requirements. The lady helping me, had all of the information she needed and instead of providing me with a section of dresses I could shop from, she gave me dresses that were all 4 sizes too small.

After trying to fit into them and then realizing what she had done, I walked out embarrassed and in tears. I hope another curvy bride never has to feel the way I did after leaving this store.

I had the absolute best experience. I loved the variety of gowns they had and the staff was so encouraging and helpful. I started to feel bad because I couldn't decide between two dresses that I loved and Vanessa was not pushy. She very joyfully helped me calm down and take my time. I absolutely love my dress and loved my experience.

I was very excited to check out melange at the recommendation of a friend. However I can only describe my experience as disappointing. I went in with excitement and eagerness to see their selection but was left feeling pretty bummed out. While their staff was professional, they were quiet and distant. I did not feel like a got a bridal experience or feeling in general.

The selection was limited and seemed a bit dated, many of the dresses felt like they looked the same. Nothing really unique. Nice people, but definitely not where I will be getting my wedding gown unfortunately.
