Sue was professional and accommodating to my concerns about my perfect dress. She didn't rush me and gave me time to evaluate what I really wanted. My dress was everything I wanted and more. Mary Me Bridal has the most bridal selections in orange county. It's more family-owned so the service is really catered to a brides needs. This place is awesome and has the price range that can work with any bride's budget.

Sue at Mary Me Bridal was a pleasure to work with. I had a great experience at Mary Me Bridal because of her. She is sweet and patient. My gown arrived earlier than expected, alterations came out perfect and I absolutely loved my dress. I like that Mary Me Bridal has big selection of dresses to choose from. That's definitely a plus for them.

Sharon took me in after a horrible disaster of an appointment over at Fernadales Bridal moments before. She got right down to business! Asked me my price point, my wants and my dislikes, took me to the room and went to find my dream dress! I believe we tried on about 5 Total. I told her I did not want anything Taffeta, but I soon found Satin and Silk being pretty pricey and heavy. It took some muscle just wearing these dresses! She asked me to try on ONE MORE, and one she had in mind. Margaret by Sottero & Midgley; it was Taffeta, but ok I'll try it on! I fell in LOVE! The fabric was perfect and the sample not exactly fitting me best but I just knew it was "the one". I instantly came out crying, not one dress made me cry before this. My momma knew too. The dress was a little over my initial budget, but Sharon got it down to a price that my mother and I could work with! Beautiful gown and they are storing it for me until closer to my wedding date! I can not thank Sharon enough for being so patient with me, even being an impulsive EARLY shopping Bride. But luckily I came in when I did (July 2010) because my dress was soon discontinued by the designer in Oct. 2010! Everything happens for a reason! Sharon was my Dress Angel! My "Try On" appointment went great too, Sharon was there! YAY! It fit great, just exactly how I had envisioned it! After 8 months of waiting for the gown to come in, the way that dress makes me feel made the wait TOTALLY worth it! Lost 50lbs....Alterations were expensive. But it was all worth it in the end thankfully! Blessed to have found my dream dress! Thank you...

Marry Me Bridal was the first bridal shopped I looked in and the last! The lady who helped me was named Sue and she was he sweetest lady! She had my mom and I take a look at dresses that were in our price range then brought us to our private room. Once she saw what I was looking for she brought in some she thought I would like. She had my mom wait in her own little area with a big mirror and outside lighting to get the full affect. I had my first dress on and walked down this hallway where my mom could see me then into the area with her! It was the perfect setting to try on dresses! The first dress I tried on I loved! I knew it was the one!! Sue was so sweet in helping me imagine what I would look like the day of! She brought over jewelry and all sorts of veils! She was the best! I didn't buy the dress then because I wanted to try on other dresses and go to other places to make sure the dress I found was the one! We made another appointment to come back. When we came back my dad and aunt came with us! I tried the dress on again and it was the one!! Even after trying on so many other dresses the first dress I ever tried on was the winner! It was a Maggie Sottero, Kendra! Sue helped me pick out a veil and the alterations lady was so sweet! She showed my mom exactly what to do on the day of! We didn't even have to have the dress altered! It fit perfectly! I loved my experience at Marry Me...

This was the first place I shopped at and the one I came back to. They have a really friendly staff and are pretty lenient about letting you and your fam shop through the dress and figure out exactly what you want. Got my bridesmaid dresses here as well and they arrived super fast. I would say get the dress as soon as possible because mine took about 6 months to arrive and then time for alterations, etc. Try to go during the week because weekends are kind of crazy and you wont get as much time alone with your fam.

This was the last place I went when in search for "The Dress", I wish we would have started there FIRST. The team at Mary Me Bridal in Orange was AMAZING from our very first visit. They made finding my gown so easy :) Yes!!! I got the feeling you are suppose to get when you find the one :) They were great about ordering it and making sure it arrived on time (it actually arrived way before it was expected). All the fittings went well and they made me feel special EVERY time I went in. When the dress was ready for the big day they were so happy for me :) I can't say enough great things about this place. They have the price on each gown so you know what you are getting yourself into and there is no upselling like some of the other places I went into. I would suggest this place to ALL the brides trying to find "the dress".

I fell in love with the dress... this was the first bridal shop I happened to venture into and I found the dress right away, yay! Very much unlike any other dress in there because most had tones of sparkles and bling but mine was truly couture simplicity. and it was half priced because it was a floor model!

We shopped at several stores to find what we wanted and this store had a terrific selection, affordable prices and friendly staff. The consultant, Jackie, really listened and was able to find the perfect dress with in our price range almost immediately. We were concerned that the size would be too small, but the dress fit in the waist very well. Only the hips and length needed to be adjusted. The dress arrived as scheduled, three months before the wedding. The alterations specialists were delightful to work with and the alterations were reasonable, done very well, and done very quickly. There was too much "poof" in the dress skirt, so alterations removed some of the crinoline for a perfect fit!

I purchased my wedding gown at Mary Me Bridal and on my first trip had an amazing experience with Azi...I highly recommend her! She helped find the perfect gown and actually picked something that I normally wouldn't have grabbed...and it was THE ONE! She is truly an expert and amazing at what she does! My experience with Azi was great. However, on subsequent trips to the shop for fittings and to pick up the dress, the service from others wasn't as great in that they weren't very friendly and I felt almost as if I was bothering them. Overall, I had a good experience with Mary Me, my dress was beautiful and fit perfect and they did give me a small discount on the price (which always helps).

Buying your wedding dress is a HUGE deal. So, needless to say, I read tons of reviews of Mary Me before I ended up purchasing my dress here. I was honestly a bit worried, but I fell in love with my dress and couldn’t find it anywhere else. Therefore – Mary Me it was! Going back a little bit here, Mary Me was the second of three bridal shops I seriously visited (Ferndale’s and Mariposa being the others.) I did go to David’s Bridal and to Mon Amie, too, but for various reasons – those weren’t for me. The first time I visited Mary Me – it was December 2009 – I didn’t have an appointment. I’m the type of person that just likes to browse – if I need your help – I will find you. Just let me be, and I’ll get things done my way. Sharon was completely fine with just letting me walk around and do my thing with my mum. I found somewhere in the vicinity of 10 dresses that I wanted to try on, and when I was ready, she helped me. She wasn’t pushy or demanding – just the right about of attentiveness, offering the nice comment here and there. We went through the process of trying on about three quarters of the dresses – and then I tried it on – THE DRESS that would become my wedding dress. It was PHENEMONIAL. Fit me like a glove and had everything I wanted – delicate beadwork on the dress (not on an applique), an A-line skirt, and a train with beadwork. If you’re going to have all that material – there’s going to be something on it, that’s for sure! I had originally ordered the dress with extra material, as I wanted to add three pick-ups to the dress. Fast forward a bit…. My dress came in about 6 – 7 months later. I was living in the UK at the time, so I wasn’t able to rush over to see it. In August 2011, I had my first fitting. It was at this time that I decided – nope – I don’t want to add or change anything about this dress. It was made this way for a reason, and it’s perfect. I don’t want to change it at all. This means… the extra 18” of fabric that we paid extra for was going to need to be altered and taken off. I had read reviews again of Mary Me’s alterations and was again – a bit petrified. This is my dress. I don’t want anyone messing it up! I suppose it was even all the more frustrating since I wasn’t living in the area, and I couldn’t try it on again for several more months. December 2011 rolls around and guess what – time for another fitting! I tried my dress on and – ta da! IT WAS PERFECT. The beadwork was still intact – and once you see pictures of my dress – you will see why I was worried. But no, there was no need to be worried because it was great. I am so pleased with the alterations that were done. There were a few small spots that needed a bit of touching up, but they added a few more pins to have them fixed. Fast forward again to August 2011 – my final fitting before our August 27 wedding. Dress was still wonderful. The woman (I can’t remember her name) who helped me that day was great in giving us tips on how to get into the dress on the day, etc. There were two small spots that needed touching up with alterations. When I picked my dress up on August 25 – all steamed and ready for the wedding – everything was perfect. My dress was absolutely amazing and I am so grateful for Mary Me’s staff and their alterations team for my experience. I am honestly still so happy! (I received and still am receiving tons of compliments on the dress. It is really, truly, magical!) Do note – I didn’t purchase any of my accessories here. Shoes – David’ Bridal; Jewelry – Nordstrom; Tiara – David’s Bridal; Shoes – David’s Bridal. Veil – my mum sewed it. For shoes/veils/hair accessories, I think you can find more competitive prices elsewhere, but for dresses – I am SO PLEASED with Mary Me. In case you can’t tell :-)

Hands down my favorite bridal salon! Look for Susan Jimenez -- she treated me like a queen, showed me a LOT of dresses, gave good insights/opinions, and she didn't balk at my price point. She didn't rush me either to make a choice which was awesome. I've been to five other bridal salons (in the OC and LA counties) and this is by far the best in terms of service and price. They had the lowest price for the Casablanca gown I wanted (theirs was lower by $250!). Unfortunately I didn't get my gown here but if you're shopping around for a wedding dress this is the store I most recommend!

Mary Me Bridal was the first Bridal Shop I seriously visited, followed by MANY other bridal shops. I ended up coming back to Mary Me Bridal, not because I had found my dress there (yet) but because the service I had there was incredible. The staff seems to genuinely care and were very responsive to the requests I had. I ended up finding my dress there after months of searching in other shops. My dress was very affordable (less than 1000), which I couldn't find anywhere else and they worked in a very timely manner. People had told me to "lie" about my wedding date to make sure that I had my dress in time, but with Mary Me, it was not necessary. They were a great vendor to work with! Thanks!

I had a wonderful experience with Mary Me Bridal. They have an excellent selection and the customer service is fantastic. My consultant, Sue, was extremely knowledgeable as she has 20 years experience as a bridal seamstress in addition to all of her years as a consultant. She went beyond my expectations in her helpfulness and responsiveness even after my dress had arrived. The seamstress did a wonderful job altering my dress as well. I can't count how many people told me that my wedding dress was the most beautiful one they had ever seen. Even multiple people working for the venue and catering company told me that. I shopped at 5 other stores, and did not find a dress that looked even close to my dress.

when I initially came in I worked with Susan and she helped me find the dress of my dreams. It was the victoriana by Maggie Sottero, her advice and comments were positive and much appreciated. the ONLY issue I had was when I came to pick up my dress the gal that helped me into it did not lace it up correctly and my chest was falling out. She told me that my breasts were too big for my gown and she didn't know why I picked it. I obviously started crying, the manager came over and brought Susan to me. Susan relaced the gown and showed my mom the tricks of the trade and on my wedding day it was perfect

this is LONG over due, but i wanted to give a shout out to my girl SHARON for all her help, attention to details, and PATIENCE! I first went to david's bridal to get a rough idea of what the whole picking the dress process was like. that place was meh. So I came to Mary Me Bridal through a recommendation of a gf who had purchased her dress a year ago. The morning i arrived, i was already feeling antsy, anxiety, and irritated as i arrived to see a buncha bridezillas waiting to be fitted. I wanted to literally walk out cuz i cant stand being in a room with a buncha diva's. But Sharon changed everything! She no longer made me wanna gouge the eyeballs outta the whining girl next to me as she gave me her undivided attention when i was describing my vision of my dress. i had absolute no experience looking for a dress and that is why i soooooo appreciate sharon's patience with me. im sure i was pretty difficult because i had no idea what i really wanted. but after hearing me out and fitting me through crapload of dresses, she found the one! she literally went thru each and every rack and fitted me through over 25 dress without scratching me. unlike the girl from davids bridal who made me bleeeeeed because the frickin wire cut thru my skin!!!!! although this place is not as organized and structured as david's bridal, i truly appreciated the CUSTOMER SERVICE that the ppl give you.After i bought my dress and came home to find a few flowers missing, i called sharon rite away. The following week, she not only found my flowers, much gave me additional flowers just in case those werent enough. She left me a voicemail saying she will continue to look for more! She really cared!!!! I LOVED Sharon and you will too!

Shopping for a wedding dress is a top priority on the lengthy ‘to-do’ checklist. Mary Me Bridal provides exceptional service and has such a wonderful, responsive and experienced team. All of my worries were put to rest because I knew that I was in good hands. EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE – When I began my gown search, Mary Me Bridal was my first choice. I showed them a few magazine photos of my style and they provided 7 recommendations. After my appointment I narrowed my choices down to my top 2. Girls, you know that you won’t feel satisfied until you’ve tried on as many dresses as you can to find ‘the one.’ I literally tried on about 30-40 dresses at other stores and knew in my heart that ‘the dress’ was at Mary Me Bridal. Come to find out later - it was the first dress I tried on in that store. Their team knows style preference!! VARIETY – You won’t find certain styles at any other place for a reasonable cost. Look no further if you want to find a glamorous dress that makes you look unique from other brides. PROMPTNESS – I coordinated with their staff because I lived out of state. Not only were they flexible, but they were also understanding that I only had a certain timeframe to get alterations. I was able to schedule my appointments with ease. I received my beautiful dress a few days before the wedding, which fit perfectly. DAZZLING FROM HEAD TO TOE – My hair piece, detailed waistband w/rhinestones, veil and shoes were all from the shop. I love, love, loved my look on my wedding day! My day would not have been perfect without Mary Me Bridal!

I purchased my wedding gown here and overall I had a good experience. They have a very good selection of gowns at various prices so I believe this place is good for many budgets. Also, they were definitely very helpful in helping me pick out a beautiful gown. When the dress came in however, it was too large and had to be taken in. I had the alterations done there but it resulted in having folds/bulges in the front of my dress. It wasn't terrible, and I mostly hid it with the ribbon that I tied around the gown. Tucking the folds under the ribbon throughout the day was a bit annoying, so my only complaint would be that paying for expensive alterations there still didn't give me a dress that fit perfectly.

I had an incredible experience at Mary Me Bridal. I had been to 3 other well-known higher end salons in OC before Mary Me Bridal and was hesitant to go after such pampering experiences elsewhere, but I was truly "wowed" by Mary Me Bridal. My consultant, Sue, was exceptional. She was the most attentive, honest, sweet consultant I had. She helped my find my perfect dress, for about half of my budget! I had to come back for a total of 4 fittings. The first fitting was a little frustrating because the seamstress and I had different visions for the dress. I bought the dress planning to cut off the train and make the straight across back into a "V." She ultimately gave in and the dress turned out exactly how I wanted it, but I would have preferred not to have to sell her on my decision. Then, Tuesday before my Saturday wedding I tried on my dress one last time at home and it was too big. I called Mary Me and they got me a same day alterations appointment. My dress was ready and perfect on Thursday, for no extra charge. A great place to shop for any budget.
