Our Brides

Bridal and Formal was such a wonderful experience. They were all so helpful and kind. They helped me look perfect!! - Mara W.

Diane & Debra, My wedding day was perfect and thanks to you I looked amazing. I can't thank you enough for the special attention I received that day I was there. My dress was perfect, but Debra, the headpiece & earrings really captured the look I wanted. They were beyond gorgeous. Your work is amazing. Thank you Bridal and Formal and Paris for Everything. ~Gilda A.

They are Amazing at Bridal and Formal! Thank You ~Shannon & Andrew 1/1/06

About a month before my September 23, 2006 wedding, I received a phone call from the dress shop that was making my wedding gown. They informed me that they had forgotten to make my dress, and that they were ‘really sorry,’ but there was nothing they could do since my wedding day was less than a month away. Panicked and in tears, I called my mother who suggested we go to Bridal and Formal in Cincinnati, Ohio. Two days later, we hopped in a car and drove down to Bridal and Formal. The store was about to close, but they knew we were on our way and the details of the aforementioned catastrophe. Upon arrival they treated me with respect and compassion, and they took charge of a situation that until then had seemed to have spiraled out of control. The bridal coordinators showed me many beautiful dresses. As a rack of new dresses was about to be placed on the floor, I saw one and instantly felt something tell me: “There is the dress you will be become a bride in.” Seconds later, after donning the gown, I finally felt that feeling that brides before had told me about: the feeling of never wanting to take the dress off; of twirling, of laughter, and a sense of peace and beauty.” Within forty-five minuets of my arrival at Bridal and Formal, a dismal situation was turned into one of elation and joy. This couldn’t have been done without the amazing staff and dresses of Bridal and Formal. I took another vow that day – one to never let a friend of mine get married without going to Bridal and Formal. In fact, just last week, this vow was tested. Now - one of my dearest friends will also be a beautiful bride in a Bridal and Formal gown. This is truly a magical place where wedding dreams come alive.
