“Carmen was extremely helpful, kind, a great listener, highly professional, and extremely knowledgeable about dresses, tailoring, and even seamstress information like creating your own sleeves, caplette, embroidery, etc. from scratch. I would highly recommend this place if you are looking to buy something off the rack and if you want to bring your family to explore their selection and have a private curated experience!”

Hi Lori,
Thank you for the wonderful care and attention and warmth you showed me while selecting my gown. It was beautiful and very comfortable to move around. I recommended you to several friends and colleagues and one of them actually asking to find a dress that I will send you separately.
Hope all is well with you. Hope to come by and say hello soon. Thank you again for the wonderful assistance you gave me and for making my day as beautiful as it could be.
Warm Regards, M. B.
Hey Lori,
Wanted to share with you a few photos from our wedding! The dress was amazing and couldn’t have asked for better service from you and the ladies at the shop.

Lori was so helpful and patient as I tried on dresses during my appointment. She was able to understand what I was looking for and liked in order to make some beautiful recommendations within my $1000 price range. There was even an option for a custom fit dress within that range. I don’t live in Pasadena anymore (I live out of state), so the logistics of ordering a dress that has to be shipped in and altering it were a factor for me. I really appreciate how quick Lori was to offer some feasible solutions if I selected a dress from the store, including having it shipped straight to me and altering elsewhere if need be or having it altered in a quick turnaround so I could avoid multiple trips back to Pasadena. I would definitely recommend this place to look at some great dresses, with kind customer service and find sample options for great deals.

I have to say out of all 5 bridal spots I went to this boutique has the best service and best prices. This is the place to go if you want the best deals on Pronovias and Allure gowns. Many other boutiques were very pushy and wouldn’t let me try on everything and quoted me higher on identical dresses. Her sample dresses are a steal. I also love how her website shows which sample dresses are on sale along with their prices and available sizes. You won’t regret coming here. It is a very small boutique so I suggest making an appointment. Lori is quick to answer and will quote you on dresses you are interested in yelp.

Lori was super patient and sweet at trying to help me find my perfect dress!! After trying on over 15 dresses she knew exactly what I was looking for. She actually found “my dress” which was the last one I tried on!!
I would recommend this super cute boutique to anyone who wanted that special day to be special and personal able…
Also her dresses were very different and reasonably priced!

Such beautiful dresses, especially the Pronovias collection! They have a lot more options and styles than some of the other popular boutiques I visited. The team was also very patient and helpful. They took time to learn about my preference then gave me the space to look through the options. I highly recommend Bridal ST!!

I absolutely loved Bridal and Special Times. I am so glad I bought my dress here, I always felt in good hands with Lori. She was always honest and patient. Her and the rest of the staff took great care to make sure my dress fit like a dream. After not liking the first bustle I chose she completely changed it to a different bustle without hesitation. She also made my dress more modest for the church by adding a lace insert in the chest area. 100% recommend this boutique, they have great designer options And i was able to have my dream Pronovias dress!

Highly recommend Lori’s shop. Everyone is so wonderful, and the dresses are so affordable. They listen to your alterations and even add whatever you’re looking to do with your dress. Added some customizations to mine and couldn’t have been more happy. Thank you!

The reason I selected this bridal shop was because I was specifically looking for a vendor that carried Allure Bridal/Couture. I was able to view most of their inventory online and select different models I liked on their website. I emailed Lori asking to try on about 10 different dresses and she was very accommodating. Upon my arrival, all the dresses I selected were ready and they patiently assisted me until I found my dream dress. When my wedding dress arrived after several months, we realized Allure shipped out my dress a size smaller then we requested, but Lori and her team made all the necessary alterations so my dress fit perfectly. Lori also gave me a complimentary veil, which was a perfect addition to my wedding dress. I had a destination wedding and Lori assisted with packing my gown inside my carry on. She is truly an expert at what she does. Thank you Lori for making my dreams come true and for being so accommodating through out the process. I truly felt like a princess with my wedding dress.

I had my heart set on a Pronovias wedding dress and looked around all of Los Angeles for the perfect dress. When I came across Bridal and Special Times (B&ST), I did not have to look any further. Lori and the team at B&ST were amazing and helped me find the perfect dress (which happened to be a Pronovias). They were very helpful with all my fittings and bridal needs over the year. The dress fit perfectly and was so beautiful! They also offered the best prices I found anywhere in LA for similar dresses!

I can’t stop thinking about one of the dresses I tried on at Bridal and Special Times last weekend! I cannot wait to go back and officially say yes to the dress. Lori and Carmen gave my mom and I such amazing service!
I already had an Idea of what dresses I wanted to try on. Rather than bring me a bunch of random dresses, Lori really respected all my style choices and only brought out samples that I really liked- no time wasted trying on random styles! The dress I ended up finding was quoted at less than $1000 for a whole new custom tailored handmade dress! This particular dress was not from one of the name brand designers so it is made right there in store! So much better than waiting for your dress to ship from overseas! I am so impressed with Bridal and Special times! I will definitely leave an updated review after I place my order and officially purchase my dress but so far- This has been my best wedding dress shopping experience yet!
