I wish I could fully describe how amazing my experience at Marie Gabriel Couture was. I chose Marie Gabriel because they are the only bridal salon in Indiana with Hayley Paige dresses- I love HP for her personal style, spunky personality and dresses that have a little sparkle, but not way too much sparkle. By the way- we brought our own bubbly and we were able to drink it throughout the fitting which was so fun!! Anyway, Maria was my stylist and she was absolutely wonderful. Prior to the appointment, I d had my eye on a certain dress for months. I tried it on first and loved it. The second dress I tried on, both moms loved it and they loved it more than the first. I didn t hate it, but I wasn t sure about it- I tried on other dresses. Also, they provided heels to really give the full effect which was super nice! We later decided to put the first dress on again. Then we put the second dress on. Again, both moms still loved it, more than the first. Maria could tell I didn t love the second dress and in the NICEST most polite way, where the moms couldn t hear, told me she thought I was trying to make myself fall in love with the second dress because the moms liked it the best. Then, I put the first dress back on. By the way- the two dresses were different silhouettes and Maria was awesome at explaining how each would need to be altered for my body. After a few minutes of being back in the first dress, I began crying, that was the dress, that was the one. Maria was so right- I was definitely trying to make myself fall in love with the second dress because the moms loved it but it just wasn t the one for me. I m so happy Maria made that one comment, she truly helped me in the best way possible throughout the entire appointment. At the end, the moms ended up deciding they loved the first dress the best and we purchased it!! Also, Maria helped me pick out earrings that matched the dress PERFECTLY which is a relief- one more thing happily crossed off my to-do list!! I can t urge you enough to visit Marie Gabriel Couture If you purchase a dress, I promise buying earrings there is so much easier because you can try them on while wearing the dress!!
