Marie Gabriel created an incredible experience for me on the first day I was trying on wedding dresses! The staff was incredible! I worked directly with Michelle who was so easy to talk to and really made it about me. I felt like she knew me and had a great sense of what would best represent my style/personality on my wedding day within the first 10-15 min of talking with her. She made it so fun for me, my mom, and sister and I would recommend her or Marie Gabriel to any bride!

I had Maria as stylist and she was amazing! She was so sweet and genuine. She helped me pick out the perfect dress. I would definitely recommend her for your visit!
My experience with Marie Gabriel was fantastic! My bridal consultant really listened to what I wanted and made the whole process very easy! I brought 9 people with me to try on dresses and they provided a large space for everyone to sit! I felt comfortable and relaxed the whole time and ultimately ended up finding my perfect dress! My consultant kept my vision the entire time, no matter what, it was amazing.
I had such a wonderful experience at Marie Gabriel that I wouldn't change for the world. I started out with a dress I didn't love, and they worked tirelessly to fix my mistake and get me in something I loved. Every single person I spoke to (on the phone or in person) really and truly went above and beyond. They are all so knowledgeable, and so good at picking things to try on that you might not have ever even looked at twice that all look stunning. They are bringing a positive vibe to a currently turbulent time and every consultant is staying safe and taking every precaution to make customers feel safe. They have earned a lifetime of dress buying from me, for vow renewals and future children. I cannot wait to wear my dress and I will think fondly of all the ladies at Marie Gabriel for making this day so much less stress and making sure I look my best.
Marie Gabriel is the best place to look for your dream wedding dress! They are incredibly patient and passionate about helping each and every bride find their dream dress. I did not feel pressured at all and they even let me schedule a second appointment for later in the day to ensure that I was ready to commit! I am so excited to wear my dream dress from Marie Gabriel in my July wedding!
I had an amazing experience at Marie Gabriel! Natalie was my consultant and she was wonderful to work with! I shared with her my pinterest board and my vision for my wedding/wedding dress. Every dress she brought in for me to try on was absolutely stunning and exactly what I had envisioned (they even had one of my pinterest dresses in the store!). The overall experience exceeded my expectations! Needless to say, I left saying yes to the dress!
Amazing! Marie Gabriel Couture Bridal is incredible with their modern studio, gorgeous wedding dress selections, awe-inspiring accessories and spectacular service. Natalie, the wonderful and delightful Natalie - was wonderful to my daughter; if you are shopping for a wedding dress - this is a one of a kind studio that makes very happy brides!
A spectacular experience. McKenzie was awesome. So knowledgeable, helpful and friendly. She was very patient with my daughter and all her questions and I truly appreciate that. The store was clean, sanitizer at each stage. I would definitely recommend Marie Gabriel!
I had an unusual experience. I thought I had found my dress elsewhere and merely stopped by to cancel my appointment so they could squeeze someone else in. The manager came over and was very encouraging to go with whatever dress I loved best. With my wedding 4 months away AND being an older bride in my 40's, I was limited. She said, I can only think of 2 dresses that would be anything close to what I was looking for and she said to look at them if only to reassure me that I chose the best one. Well, I liked one of them ....and came back to buy it. (This was after she encouraged me to go back and try the other one on to be sure). That is great sales and customer service. I like the integrity level.
I absolutely love everyone at Marie Gabriel and I am so thankful to have found such a welcoming group of women to find my wedding dress with! Young has been soooo helpful to me. There is also so many choices which was amazing for me since I had no idea what I wanted going in. We bought the second dress I tried on! I ll always recommend Marie Gabriel to my engaged girlfriends.
Found my dream dress within an hour and the person who helped me, Celest, was amazing at her job and really cared about pleasing my mom and I, even though we had different views on what my dress should look like. The only negative experience I had was that they were extremely late in calling me back to schedule my fittings. I ended up going 3 times within one month of my wedding, which was extremely stressful. But they steamed my veil at no extra charge. Overall, very pleased with them.
I had the BEST bridal experience at Marie Gabriel! I didn't really know what to expect from my dress shopping experience other than what I had seen on Say Yes to the Dress but let me tell ya, they truly make you feel like the most important person in the room while you're there. Leigh was my shopping consultant and she listened intently to what I liked/didn't like, the look I was going for, pulled dresses that I already knew I wanted to try and actually ended up picking a dress that I never would've considered - it was the one! Even after the shopping experience the Marie Gabriel staff has been so warm and accommodating even just in coordinating pick-up appointments. I would recommend them to any bride.
Not only does this place have the most incredibly beautiful dresses, but all of the staff is SUPER friendly! They treat you with so much respect, and they take the time to get to know you as a bride and not just as a potential sale. This place is truly one-of-a-kind ! If you want to have the perfect dress experience, definitely go here!
Words cannot describe the wonderful experience that I had at Marie Gabriel's! I felt like I was so special and that I was the only bride in the world. I cancelled appointments with other bridal stores because they didn't even compare to Marie Gabriel's. Please ask for Peggy, she was so helpful and made sure that my dream came to a reality. All the other women at Marie Gabriel's were amazing too! When I say that I felt like a princess, I absolutley mean it! I even got my bridesmaids and flower girl dresses there too! Thank you Peggy and Marie Gabriel!
I had a wonderful experience here! They were so accommodating, professional, and positive. They took the stress out of the process and helped me find the fun again. I especially appreciated Nikki's attentiveness, focus and guidance. The dresses are beautiful and everyone from the front desk to the ladies helping with fittings were incredible to work with!
This place was simply amazing. I have heard horror stories of bridal consultants pressuring their brides to "hurry up" with timing, and not being the nicest. This place was so professional and extremely friendly! My consultant captured the style of my wedding exactly and reflected it in my dress. She had such a great insight of how certain dresses would look on me. Their inventory had a large selection of collections to choose from, compared to some boutiques with little amount of collections. I can't say enough good about this place! Great experience that I'll remember and cherish forever!
Wonderful experience at MGC this past weekend! Maria and Young were fantastic to work with and knew exactly what dresses to pull based off my preferences and body type. The shop has a great selection of dresses that accommodate a wide range of styles and budgets. Even with COVID restrictions in place, the MGC team made the experience fun, special and safe. I am so excited to be a Marie Gabriel bride and would recommend this bridal shop to anyone.
I cannot say enough how much I ADORED my experience at Marie Gabriel. Back in February, I went into Marie Gabriel on a whim after I learned one of my favorite designers (Hayley Paige) was having a trunk show with her new styles. From the moment my group and I showed up at MGB, we were blown away with the kindness and individual attention we received. Leigh is absolutely amazing, and helped me narrow down the style of dress I liked and wanted to try on. I ended up getting the first dress I tried on, and I cannot imagine a better overall experience. Young came by to congratulate me, as well as to give her insight and expertise on the gown I chose. My dress arrive a month ago, and I fell back in love with it all over again. I can not recommend Marie Gabriel enough!!
I am so surprised this place has over a 4* rating. My experience was HORRIBLE. They were incredibly sales driven. My mom and maid of honor were uncomfortable with how pushy they were. If that's not enough, by helper lady totally opened up the curtain to put a dress outside when I was totally naked in the little dressing room! The whole store could have seen me! I shouldn't have even had to stand there undressed. Everywhere else I went had the next dress ready before I had to get out of the one I was wearing. Here, they made me take the dress off before even getting the next one off the hanger. The have 600 dresses and I didn't even find one I would have worn! I found 5 I would have worn at shops with less than 100.
Marie Gabriel has the most amazing selection of dresses I ve ever seen in my life! They have amazing service making sure you re taken care of from the moment you walk in! Everything from choosing the dress to alterations to the fittings to the pick up day was smooth and fantastic and one of the best experiences of my life! Now I can t wait for my sister to start trying on dresses here too! :)
A few words to start off my review are accommodating, patient, and above all, the most professional bridal boutique in Indianapolis.
I had started my search for "The One" two months prior to my visit at MGC. At these other establishments I was given dresses that were nothing like what I was wanting or almost rushed into making a purchase. I was also very disappointed, because I did not think I was going to be able to get the designer, Galia Lahav in Indiana. Due to COVID, I basically gave up on my dream of having a GALA gown or anything close.
I found MGC on Tik Tok and decided to give them a call. Mackenzie answered the phone and immediately made me feel at ease. She handled the phone call so professionally and made me less nervous for my consult. My dress was something I was putting off because I had such high expectations. When I arrived at MGC I was seated with my friends to fill out details about my wedding day. Maria promptly helped me, and took me around the store looking over each gown to see what I WANTED. Not what she thought I would want. As we were coming back around to our dressing room, I found a GALA gown I just had to try on. Maria grabbed the gown without hesitating or questioning me. I was immediately in love. She even put in the extra effort of hand selecting a perfectly matching veil. This took place on a Friday, and on Sunday I had a consult with Young to finalize the details and minor changes on my dress as well as purchase. Young's sweet nature and professional attitude made me feel so confident in my purchase. Mackenzie, Maria, Young, and all of the staff at MGC are by far the most professional in the city of Indianapolis. You will receive a one-of-a-kind experience with them that cannot be matched. They are first class. I cannot recommend them enough! THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU! Xo, -Macy Lewis
I don't normally write reviews but I was so disappointed with the service at Marie Gabrlel Couture, I had to voice my opinion. I do think they had beautiful dresses, but the staff needs training. While we were waiting for our scheduled appointment, I looked at a dress that was hanging near my chair. I lifted it off the rack to see the back. An employee comes over and tells me not to touch the dresses. She said, "YOU BREAK, YOU BUY". After going so many other places where they told us to shop a bit and pick our favorite dresses, I was offended. I sat there for another 20 minutes and watch wedding consultants drag dresses across the floor. I asked my daughter to try on the dress I had looked at. I actually asked 3 times. The staff at Marie Gabriel told my daughter she couldn t try it on because it was out of her budget. My daughter said, my mom asked that I try it on. They said NO. Honestly, I am the mother of the bride, and I am paying for the dress. Seriously? The third offense was when my daughter didn't say yes to a dress that was apparently "in her price range". The consultant called her bull headed when she wouldn't make a decision right then. Three strikes, you're out Marie Gabriel. We won't be back. It s too bad. That $6000 dress we didn't get to try on was gorgeous.
This was Indy's version of Kleinfelds. We shopped at multiple stores but this store had the largest selection of nice dresses and made us all feel special. I also appreciated the honest feedback.
I had such a wonderful experience at Marie Gabriel! My consultant, Lauren, was super helpful and enthusiastic! She really paid attention to the style I was going for. I ended up purchasing my DREAM dress by designer, Calla Blanche. Thanks to MG for helping me find the most beautiful dress! I can t wait to wear it next July :)
Maria was wonderful: she was smart, flexible and patient with me while I was trying to decide what I wanted. She was able to find a dress that incorporated everything I liked into one. Staff was quick and friendly, highly recommend!
As a woman who has an addiction for TV shows like Say Yes to the Dress and My Fair Wedding, I had extremely high expectations for my bridal gown shopping experience. I started dress hunting at Marie Gabriel and worked with the most pleasant and professional person, Peggy. I was treated like every bride wants to be treated - with respect and care, and I loved my shopping experience. Still not sure if I found "my dress," I travelled to New York and made appointments with highly recommended boutiques, only to realize none of them compared to Marie Gabriel. Marie Gabriel has beautiful couture dresses and an amazing staff to make sure every you go home with "the" dress, in your budget, that you will LOVE! I would tell every upcoming bride to shop with them. Shopping with them has been one of the best experiences of planning my wedding.
Fantastic experience! Found my dream dress here for the best price possible! Everyone here were super friendly and professional! I did not feel like I was pressured to buy anything at all! They were also very patient with me as I went close to 1 hour over my scheduled appointment time (yes, I m very indecisive). Most importantly, the dress selections are definitely the best in town! With top-notch brands that you can t find anywhere else! I went to 5+ different bridal shops before here and nothing could ve been compared to this one! They also try really hard to meet your price range (via giving you great deals)! Hands down the best bridal shop!! Suggestion would be look at other places first then come here last though, because you receive a 10% discount when you buy a dress at your first visit! And you will be able to distinguish that here really offers the best selections/prices then!
I loved this place! I didn't think I would end up finding anything here because of the price, but my consultant was very understanding with our budget, and didn't even show me anything over our price limit. I found my dress and had such a fun time doing it!
Went with a friend who was already nervous about this experience, we arrived 15 mins early. They take us back to sit to an area that could sit 4 and we had 8 total in our group. The sales girl asked the bride a few questions then showed her gowns in the store. After about 45 mins the bride was able to try on gowns. Around 3pm our appointment was at 1:30pm..the owner Young comes over (while bride is on stage in THE ONE, trying to find a Vail she liked) starts to be very rude. Telling us we need to leave she has another appointment waiting, we are past our time. It was 3:10. Young was so rude and disrespectful, so many different ways she could have handled that. The bride asked during the fittings how much time we had, sales girl said till 4! The way Young made us and the bride feel was completely unprofessional. The sad part is the exact same dress the bride wanted is sold downstairs in another Wedding dress store! So it's not like she has the only one, but due to her lack of tolerance, patience, and professionalism she lost a good deal of business. Please go someplace else!!
Wow! Young, Nicole, and the rest of the team at Marie Gabriel Couture Bridal left me speechless. I booked my appointment on a Saturday with only a couple of hours of notice. Clearly, it was meant to be. From the moment my mom and I were greeted, they made us feel like the most important people in the salon and me, the beautiful BRIDE. Nicole and Young really took the time to listen to what I wanted in my dress and pulled more than I could have asked for. Each gown was more stunning than the one before. I recommend Marie Gabriel Couture Salon wholeheartedly!
My girl Leigh was soo amazing, I truly felt like a bride!! They were so helpful and accommodating to what I wanted in my wedding dress. She was able to pull the perfect dress, and I said YES to my perfect dress I could not be happier!!
I am new to Indiana so when I had family in town, we decided to go dress shopping. I had only been once before and fell in love with a particular designer. I called around town and found out that no one carried that designer anymore, but Marie Gabriel informed me they used to and that they could definitely find something similar. Not only did they exceed my expectations and ensure the entire experience was amazing, but they had two dresses in stock from the designer I was stuck on. They went and found them in the back and I ended up saying yes to the dress! Thank you so much Kate for all your help, patience, hairdo, and the awesome experience. I am so happy I found my dress and had fun along the way!! Highly recommend to anyone looking for a dress in the Indianapolis area!
Beautiful selection and very helpful!! They aren t a discount shop but still worked with our budget. They all made me feel so special and welcomed my young nieces that were with me. Nicole was amazing and made me feel comfortable while changing. I loved the whole experience!
So friendly and helpful! I needed my dress quick due to poor planning and they are making it happen!! It s amazing how friendly they are and reassuring! So thankful for a great team to make this happen!
This place treated my friend like garbage. They insulted her and made her feel terrible during what should have been one of the most joyous days of her life. Do not give them your business!
My mom and I had been to a couple of different bridal stores in Fishers since my engagement in December 2012. I had an image in my head of how the appointments would go. However, it was not until I went to Marie Gabriel Couture and met Peggy and Young, that I had that experience. Of course, I have never had a personal shopper and I do not know what looks good on my body type. I had ideas about what I did not want but was open to other ideas. After offering my mom and I refreshments, Peggy sat down with me and actually listened to me and to what my ideal wedding day looked like, and what I wanted and didn't want in a dress. This was so extremely refreshing after going to other stores that expect you to know what you like by seeing it on a hanger and make you pick out your dresses. After getting an idea of the image I was wanting, Peggy asked us to relax while she herself picked some dresses she thought I would like. She was right too. I found one dress I loved and will probably purchase, and some others that were almost as wonderful. She and Young even took the time to tell me why the dresses looked good on my body type.
The whole experience was absolutely wonderful and relaxing and there was no pressure to purchase that day. I would absolutely recommend Marie Gabriel, Young, and Peggy to any bride/groom/etc searching for that once-in-a-lifetime experience.
I traveled from the Chicago area to find my wedding dress at Marie Gabriel Couture Bridal. They have the largest selection of a specific designer I was interested in. They ended up not having the particular dress I had my heart set on, but after trying on similar dresses and discussing my options with them, they were able to go ahead and order me my dream dress! Everyone was very helpful, friendly, and professional. I had a great experience and I cannot wait for my dress to arrive!
V helped me find my dream dress and I couldn t have asked for a better experience!! Everyone in the store was super helpful and accommodating. They helped my three year old find the most gorgeous flower girl dress that complemented mine, and assisted in entertaining her during the process! I would absolutely recommend Marie Gabriel Couture! Their selection and service was unmatched!
Leigh was absolutely wonderful and made saying yes to the dress so easy. She picked up exactly what I liked about each dress I tried on and then found the perfect one. So so happy with the entire experience.
Had a great experience at MGC! Leigh was my consultant and after showing her pictures of dresses I like she knew exactly what I wanted! The first dress she had me try on was the one and I am so in love with it! Thanks for a great experience!
If you re looking for top-notch consultants, excellent selection, stunning gowns and the best customer experience possible, look no further than Marie Gabriel! What a wonderful experience. Young and McKinzie have impeccable taste and an eye for helping you find the gown that will look perfect on your body. From shapewear, the magic bra as I call it, to a dress that will make you look your best - they truly have it all! I cannot recommend this boutique enough - this is an appointment you will be so happy you made!
From the time we walked in the door and were happily greeted, to working with Maria finding my perfect dress, everything about this experience was wonderful. We did not even have an appointment and we were treated so well. I highly recommend to anyone looking to say yes to their dress!!
After a very scary drive from Louisville to Indy in winter weather I was a ball of nerves walking into Marie Gabriel. The consultants there instantly put me at ease without even knowing how terrible my drive was. My consultant, Leigh Hauser, is amazing!! She was down to earth and honest with me. All the consultants were. My experience with Leigh was by far the best I have had planning our wedding thus far. I highly recommend you go to Marie Gabriel for your wedding gown. You will not be disappointed. Ask for Leigh!! She turned a bad day into one of the best days ever!!
Lauren R was amazing! She helped find what I had in mind, but also made me comfortable to step outside of my comfort zone. This by far has been the easiest and most fun part of planning my wedding. They have SO many dresses to choose from and I walked in confident that my dress was somewhere waiting for me here. The 1:1 attention was tremendous and they truly are as excited as you are when you find the one . I cannot recommend the staff or the experience here enough!!
My experience at MGC has been nothing short of amazing! Lauren is such a sweetheart, I loved how special she made my day feel. Definitely recommend for any bride looking for an enjoyable dress shopping experience.
I found the wedding dress of my dreams at Marie Gabriel Couture Bridal! They have such a vast selection of gorgeous gowns for every style and the staff is incredibly helpful and kind.
Leigh and the entire MGC team were absolutely incredible to work with! Leigh was patient, knowledgeable, and professional. She understood the look I wanted and went to all lengths to make it possible!!! I could not have imagined a better bridal experience.
Nicole helped me out at my appointment and did a phenomenal job!!! She was patient and kind when I went in with no idea of what I wanted. They had an amazing selection of stunning gowns at a variety of prices. Would highly recommend!!
If you are looking to dress shop at a classy and modern salon with experienced and professional staff, I would highly recommend you go the the Marie Gabriel Couture Bridal salon to find your own wedding dress. A good friend referenced me to the salon, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. I bought my wedding dress here and have already recommended several of my bride-to-be friends to the salon. I would make the same recommendation to you, and here is why:
1. Customer Service This store has amazing customer service that goes above and beyond to work with you to ensure you know your options. After being dead set on a designer line carried by Marie Gabriel Couture, I phoned the salon about a specific dress that I was interested in. The dress wasn't carried in the store, but they quickly informed me that it is sometimes available during the designer's trunk show. The owner and staff at the salon worked with me far in advance to give me trunk show dates for this designer so I could have the best selection and price. They worked their butts off in the mean time, and had the dress I requested shipped to the salon, so it was there for me to try on. Talk about customer service - they went out of their way to be sure I was able to take this dress into consideration.
2. Friendly, Experienced, and Professional Staff When I arrived, the owner and staff greeted my family and me and were all extremely friendly and helpful. They walked us around the salon and helped me select gowns to try on. I ask a lot of questions and they happily and professionally answered them! As a very researched shopper, I very much appreciated their honesty, opinions, and advice regarding the dresses and accessories I tried on. After trying on the dress that I thought I would love and that had shipped to the store for me to see, I was unsure. I tried on several other dresses prior to making a decision. The staff working with me recommended a similar style dress they thought I would like. I ended up going with their recommendation, which was actually less expensive than the dress that had been shipped to the store per my request! They were honest with me on what looked best and worked for my wedding day, and weren't concerned about making the best sale, which spoke volumes in my eyes. I truly appreciated this!!
3. Overall Positive Experience Needless to say I bought my dress at the salon, and would do it again in a heart beat. All of the staff was so helpful and worked with me to customize the dress to my taste with the right color, size, and accessories to boot. They also helped me pick out my veil and belt, both of which complete the look. Overall, the staff was extremely friendly, helpful, and fun, which created such a positive experience that met my expectations for what shopping for your wedding dress should truly be like. They made me feel special and helped me make the right decision.
i went in just to casually look for what i might want in a wedding dress, and left with the PERFECT dress for my wedding day! working with maria was the best experience i could ve asked for in shopping for a wedding dress. she listened what i wanted, brought plenty of styles to try, and kept mom in check. i can t wait to put my dress on again, and can t thank maria & MGC enough for the amazing experience!
I don't believe I had ever had the professionalism and care that we experienced at Marie Gabriel Bridal Couture. My daughters and I had the privilege of working with Peggy. Her knowledge of what looks good on an individual and her care were so evident and appreciated! The buyer also came over and was extremely helpful as well (my apologies for not remembering your name). Actually the entire staff was very helpful. Peggy rocks!! We are awaiting the alterations to the dress so hopefully these will go as smoothly as the purchase of the dress!
Absolutely superb. I had the pleasure of working with Natalie and she is simply excellent at what she does. Everyone was helpful and knowledgeable. Buying a wedding dress was both fun and efficient.
What a beautiful experience! All involved were supportive, attentive, and respectful. Nykki, my consultant, took all the time in the world to make sure she understood exactly what I wanted to look like and pulled the most gorgeous dresses after allowing me to make my own choices. She followed up with me after our appointment and showed continued interest in my dress-journey. If you're looking for a unique and breath-taking gown in a classy store with wonderful staff, Marie Gabriel is the place for you.
I thoroughly enjoyed my experience at Marie Gabriel. The staff is very attentive and involved in the process. Any time I had questions or concerns, they were readily available. The store is beautiful, the staff is lovely, and the gowns are unique and beautiful. A much different experience than I had at a bridal superstore.
just moved to Indianapolis from California and was really nervous about finding a dress here. Side-note: I have recently gained 30+ lbs because of stress and was feeling really body-conscious about the whole experience. In fact, I was DREADING my appointment. Once I got to the salon I was still freaked out, but Celeste helped me find a dress that was magnificent. It made me feel beautiful. I ended up picking out something TOTALLY different than what I came in for but felt truly beautiful and became excited about the wedding despite my personal issues.
Celeste was wonderful to work with, she was so fun and I felt like I was working with a friend who was honest but tactful and aware of my feelings. I didn't feel pressured or rushed.
I did go over my budget but that was of my own choosing, they have a wide variety of dresses and can work in your budget.
Now I can't wait for the big day! Since they found me a dress that already looks fabulous I have also been more motivated to get back into the gym. Working with Marie Gabriel was a great choice for me!
Love this boutique so much! After a disheartening experience at the first store, we received a very warm welcome at Marie Gabriel. These ladies know exactly what they are doing, and put my entire group at ease. Peggy was amazing and fun. So glad I found my perfect dress at only the second place we looked! Definitely would recommend thie boutique to all brides- the perfect experience. And they worked with our budget, too!
I recently found the wedding dress of my dreams after having visited 4 Bridal Salons. Every other salon I went to, I felt like their styles & selection were limited and I just couldn't find the dress I had visioned in my mind. My experience at Marie Gabriel Couture was absolutely top notch! From the moment I walked in, they were nothing but professional, knowledgeable, and caring. They made me feel so comfortable, helped me with any questions I had, and lead me to my dream wedding dress! Celeste was extremely personable and well educated on each designer and style, as well as sizing, making it easy for me to narrow down choices and find the perfect dress that fit my wedding vision. Anne Marie & Young have both been so wonderful throughout the entire process, following up with me after my purchase and keeping me updated on the timeline of the production and delivery of my dress. I can not wait for it to get in and for me to go back for the fitting! Anyone who is considering traveling from a distance to visit their salon like I did, I would tell them it is 110% worth it. Not only is their staff super friendly, but their salon is beautiful & their gowns are beyond gorgeous, with so many designers and styles to choose from. Their team went above and beyond to make me feel like a princess & from start to finish, I really felt like they cared about me and were extremely focused and determined on helping me find the dress that was meant for me, without any pressures or confusion!
Finding my dress at Marie Gabriel was such a memorable experience for my mom and I to share and it was everything I had ever dreamed it would be :)
My mom and I went to just get an idea of what I thought I would like for my wedding dress. The experience we had being there was exceptional! Maria was our consultant and she was AMAZING! Very personable and saw my vision, even when I wasn t sure what that was! The owner also took so much time with us as well, which made it even more special. They truly care for the brides in their shop and I would highly recommend them to anyone! Thank you for helping me find my dream dress to marry the man of my dreams!!
If you want to feel special, definitely come here! I didn t end up getting my dress here, but the customer focus, environment, and variety of dresses are amazing! My consultant, Mackenzie, and the owner made me feel like the only girl in the room, and really helped me with making my decision! Such a special and beautiful place!
I went to Marie Gabriel and I wasn t exactly expecting to find a dress, I was thinking I d more just find my style. But boy was I wrong! Lauren was the one helping me and she was awesome. Marie Gabriel has over 700 dresses so it s no wonder that I found the perfect one for me. It was such a special moment and I was even able to bring my 8 month old along my mother. Yong and the other staff just loved on her, which was nice because I was nervous to bring her! Overall this was a great experience and I am so excited for my dress.
I had the most wonderful experience. I was SO nervous but Maria helped me and made me feel beautiful I will recommend this place to everyone and anyone!
If you are looking for a unique designer gown and don't wish to make the trip to Chicago you may find it here. You will also find some very unpleasant sales tactics. The staff members did not listen to my opinion unless it supported a big sale and their tack was distinctly manipulative. For what it's worth, I may still purchase my dress at Marie Gabriel, no thanks to the sales team. They do have some very stunning gowns especially if you can afford to spend more.
I absolutely fell in love! My experience was fun and very easy. They have a variety of wonderful dresses and amazing, honest woman to help you find the perfect dress. They know what they are doing and they do it well!
It was a great experience from start to finish. I was greeted by a woman who I assume was the owner and she was quick to ask me what kind of styles I liked and start pulling dresses that fit perfectly. Lauren helped me throughout The appointment getting me in-and-out of dresses and giving me good insight. My mom and sister were treated to champagne while they waited And honestly I liked every dress that I put on. They have a great selection with dresses starting at a $1000. I had not anticipated to spend so much on my wedding dress but I loved the one I picked out and couldn't leave without it. It was such a fun day I wish I could do it all over again. Highly recommend.
My mom and I came here after looking at several other bridal stores, at various price point levels, and were quite discouraged. From the moment we walked in, until the very moment we got on the elevator to leave, Marie Gabriel Couture was so wonderful. All of the staff were so incredibly gracious and kind, and really just made us feel welcome. We could really tell that they were like a family with one another, too! This was the first bridal store I have gone to where I found not just one or two dresses I liked, but dozens that I LOVED.
The best part of all was the very moment I tried on my dream dress--they were there to capture it all on camera! I am so thankful that such a special moment and once-in-a-lifetime moment was caught on film. I got the dress of my dreams, and we all knew it once I tried it on!
Young (owner) and Peggy (Senior Bridal Consultant) spent time to review everything with us--everything from what I envisioned for my wedding, how I'd like to feel on my wedding day, etc, to fittings and tailoring (comes with the price of the dress--so rare!). I wish I could name each of them by name, though, because they were all so great!
I am so thankful that we walked into Marie Gabriel Couture! My favorite part (besides the dress!!!!) was how kind, helpful, and warm the staff was! They also have a little surprise for shoppers, too! :) We hugged each one of them when we left! I cannot speak highly enough about Marie Gabriel Couture and the staff.
I contacted MGC regarding a specific Ines Di Santo gown that I was searching for. They had the sister gown therefore I quickly booked an appointment. From email, to arrival and departure the service was excellent. I have been in hotel hospitality for 8 years so customer service is very important to me. The experience in their store was terrific and I ended up purchasing an Amsale gown that I LOVE. Highly recommend to all brides!
I would recommend Marie Gabriel Couture to every bride to be!!! Very professional! Lauren was my stylist she was amazing! She took the time to figure out what I wanted in my dream dress and made it happen! This was my first time trying on dresses and I said Yes to the dress!
Found the dress of my dreams with Maria today!! She was the most perfect consultant and knew exactly what I was looking for. Marie Gabriel had so many beautiful dresses .
Marie Gabriel is a godsend! I am super picky an have minimal choices in any store I go into for my wedding dress, but here they had plenty of options. The owner would always offer advice on any dress for alterations I would want done and made any dream work for me. But Maria helping me find my dream dress was perfect. She saw exactly what I wanted and helped me see the final look with my veil and earrings. She was the best I could have asked for. Ask for Maria for you appointment and she will find the dress for you. I went into the day with no intention of finding a dress but I would the PERFECT one. I would recommend Marie Gabriel to any bride looking for a dress. They have so many options and the staff is exceptional. I wouldn t have found my dream dress without Maria and the Marie Gabriel staff. Thank you thank you THANK YOU!
I found my perfect wedding dress at Marie Gabriel Couture! It was a fun and welcoming experience all around, and our stylist, Celeste, knew exactly what gown fit my personality and the look I was wanting. The owner/management, Young and Anne-Marie, are great to work with, and I felt well taken care of from saying 'yes to the dress', through my dress fittings, until the day I picked up my gown for my wedding day. Thank you for everything! --Hannah Whiteman
Kim was my consultant and did a fantastic job helping me find my wedding dress! She listened and asked questions, and found all the elements I was looking for. The other staff was also very friendly and helpful. I had a wonderful experience at Marie Gabriel's!
This was the second store I went to, to try on wedding dresses. I was nervous at first since the first store I went to the dresses didn t really fit me so I was nervous that the dresses wouldn t either here. When I went there I had the best staff everyone was super friendly. They sat me down and asked what I wanted then had me walk around with them pulling what I liked so they could get an idea. They had me sit back with my party while they pulled dresses they thought I d like. The dresses they picked for me were everything I wanted and more. The first three dresses were my favorite. But when I tired on my third dress I knew it was the one! They didn t pressure me into finding a dress and I was super comfortable. I didn t feel like I had to pick the dress that day but that they wanted to help me find the perfect dress for the special day. I would highly recommend this place they have so many choices to choose from, and they will take their time with you to find that special dress and I couldn t be more happy with the dress I picked!
I came in from out of town (California) to visit my family and my aunt booked my appointment at Marie Gabriel Couture. From the beginning we were warmly greeted by staff, and wow they have some beautiful gowns! My consultant Kate did a great job turning my vision into my dream wedding dress. This was my first time trying on gowns and I ended up finding my dress! At first I was unsure of what I wanted but Kate guided me through different options to figure out my likes and dislikes... ultimately leading me to my absolutely gorgeous dress! I recommend this bridal shop to anyone looking for a intimate shopping setting, when I went the store was very calm and quiet which I loved. Thanks again to Kate and everyone else at Marie Gabriel! Can t wait to get my dress :)
The dresses are exactly what you would get elsewhere but a bit more expensive. I also felt that the woman helping me was a bit rude, saying "I don't mean to be an ass but I'm not a seamstress" several times when I inquired about the fit and potential to alter. I ultimately went with BHLDN in Chicago and had a much better experience.
My experience here was exactly what I dreamed of when looking for a wedding gown. My dress was one of a kind and absolutely perfect. I was taken very well care of. I absolutely recommend this bridal store.
I had a wonderful time at Marie Gabrielle bridal salon! At first I was intimidated by the size of the store, as I was looking for a very personal experience, but they took us over to our own private mirror and dressing room set up with couches for my sisters/moms that I had brought with me. They were very good about making it feel like we had privacy while also having a HUGE selection of dresses! Leigh was absolutely wonderful, she walked me around the store so I actually got to see all of the dresses and pick some out, then she picked a few as well. I actually fell in love with a dress she picked, that I never would have chosen myself. She also was very good at getting dresses on/off quickly so I had time to try on a lot while I was there. My whole group had a wonderful time and we would recommend Marie Gabrielle to any bride and bridal party.
Marie Gabriel has a beautiful store with a large assortment of wedding dresses. Lauren was very helpful, listened and took into consideration everything I wanted and didn't want in my wedding dress, and brought me some gowns I never would've tried on without her help. I was very happy to find my wedding dress at a great price.
Do NOT go to Marie Gabriel Couture Bridal if you are above a size 12! I had the WORST experience there. I ve tried on literally 100 dresses all over and no one has told me I can t try that on because you re too big until today. I was so excited to try a few of the dresses on at first, but when I got back to the fitting room I was not allowed because of my size !!!! The owner brought some she thought I would like... NOTHING like the ones I picked. When the owner left the room my consultant (who was helpful) told me to go ahead and step in one I liked..(size 12 which usually fits) then when she heard the owner come back she immediately told me to hurry up and get out of the dress. When the owner came in she flipped out and told me, I can hold the dress up to see it. LIKE WHAT?
***found MY dress at Nancy's Bridal Boutique ...they were AMAZING
We had the most wonderful day at Marie Gabriel Couture thanks to Leigh and Young! Leigh picked out the most beautiful gown and it was exactly what I had been dreaming about! She was so kind and helpful the whole time! She knows her stuff! So does Young so kind and excellent taste in wedding fashion! Can't wait to come back for my fitting! Thank you!!!
MacKenzie was my bridal consultant and she was AMAZING!!! She listened to what I was looking for and even pulled a couple wild cards that I loved! She created an amazing experience for myself and my family. MacKenzie is the sweetest person and I m so grateful she was my consultant!!
For anyone getting married in Indianapolis - visiting Marie Gabriel Couture is a must! I was so happy to find my dress here after trying on less than 8 dresses. There is so much variety and so many designers, it's impossible NOT to say yes to the dress! My mom and I met with Leigh to find a Hayley Paige gown that is everything I'm looking for.
I had the best appointment and experience at Marie Gabriel. Anne-Marie helped me find my dress for the big day and she was so professional and attentive. She listened to every little detail on the wedding, styles / pieces I liked and combined them all into one dress! I felt like she handled herself and my handful of a group with grace and elegance. I would highly recommend Marie Gabriel and specifically Anne-Marie to any bride looking for their dress.
My husband and I are planning a 10th anniversary vow renewal and I've been working with Marie Gabriel Couture for my dress, alterations, accessories, etc. Their store is absolutely gorgeous, the gowns are stunning, the staff is the absolute best and they truly have a passion for what they do. I've been in the bridal industry as a wedding photographer for nearly 20 years and I've not seen this level of service from any other bridal salon. The entire staff is so helpful, I couldn't believe how much time they spent making sure every aspect of my bridal look was perfect. If you don't have a dress for your big day, you MUST check them out!
I have had the absolute BEST experience with Marie Gabriel and everyone there. I couldnt have felt more welcome and not pressured at all. After finding my dress there, everyone has stayed in great contact with me letting me know of sales on jewelry, veils, etc. I could not believe it when I received a hand written thank you from them thanking me for choosing Marie Gabriel! Even the experience of buying the dress was so relaxing and fun with my friends! Definitely the best!
Oh my goodness. If I could give more stars I would! Let me explain from the beginning why your first and last stop should be Marie Gabriel. I'm from Indianapolis my bridesmaids are all over the place. I looked at stores in Chicago, New More
They were so helpful! Everyone was super nice and made my experience great! Celeste was amazing at helping me feel comfortable trying on all the dresses.
I started my day with a friend just to "for fun" begin the process of dress shopping. We had an awful experience at a big chain store and she suggested going to Marie Gabriel as she had known someone from high school that now worked there. I went reluctantly, figuring any place with "couture" in the title would be way beyond my budget and would never see me without an appointment. I couldn't be more wrong.
Right away they let me in. Celeste was my consultant and seriously you HAVE to request her. She's the best! She sat with me and my friend discussing all the details of my day, my personality, what I had tried before. She gave my friend and I coffee and water, then went off pulling dresses for me. I felt like I was on Say yes to the dress.
Celeste made my day. Not only did she pull dresses within my small budget (the $1000 range) she never made me feel pressured to go to a high end designer I couldn't afford. The second dress I tried on was the dress I ended up purchasing. She was there with me through a dramatic phone call with my mom, assuring me she'd be there for me during the whole process. I felt like a queen. I can't thank them enough for making my experience an amazing day. Marie the owner, came to hug me and everyone in the salon cheered for me finding "the dress". I can't gush enough about this place. I'd suggest anyone going in there and having them guide you through what can be a stressful process.
I forgot Celeste gave my friend and I champagne to toast finding the dress. All in all she was above and beyond amazing.
With only two months till my wedding, the staff at Marie Gabriel welcomed my party and I for a bridal consultation. They worked within my timeframe and budget and within an hour I had picked out a beautiful dress for my wedding day! Everyone was incredibly kind, patient, and encouraging. Lauren was especially amazing! We had a service dog for my niece and everyone was super accommodating and sweet with him. As someone who works in the bridal industry, I highly recommend that brides go to Marie Gabriel for their wedding dresses.
I cannot say enough good things about my experience at Marie Gabriel Bridal Couture! My consultant, Peggy, was so wonderful to work with and so patient in helping me find the perfect dress. As a new bride, wedding dress shopping was at the top of my anxiety list and Peggy really helped to make it a super enjoyable and very special experience.
She helped guide me through the process with her expertise, while getting to know me on a personal level and really listening to what I wanted. She also asked great questions to get a sense of what I wanted my wedding to feel like, what I wanted people's reactions to be and what my fiance would want and love as well. Not only was she extremely knowledgeable about all the dresses in the store, but she also brought a great sense of fashion awareness and insight.
Young was also so helpful and provided a unique perspective and thoughtful insights. While there were several other brides in the store at the same time, both Peggy and Young truly made me feel like I was the most important person there. But at the same time, Young did a wonderful job connecting and giving attention to each of the brides.
I would definitely recommend this place to any bride in search of the perfect dress AND a special, memorable experience.
