    I had a fantastic experience at KWH. Dominique was so professional but also warm and friendly. Both my appointments with her were so lovely. The gowns themselves are absolutely beautiful, and I can't wait to wear mine in a few months!

    I got my beautiful wedding dress here and was referred by a friend. I got my alterations done by Alteration Specialists (and Karen Willis Holmes referred me here). Alteration Specialists did a fantastic job altering my dress - they were patient, professional and extremely helpful. I would absolutely refer anyone to Karen Willis Holmes and to Alteration Specialists. I am so happy with my dress - I got tons of compliments. The quality and fit are exceptional.

    If you want to actually feel like a bride, definitely stop into KWH.

    They're focused on offering a specialized, enjoyable, and calming experience. I worked with Dominique and she was incredibly pleasant, thoughtful, and conversational -- she seemed to enjoy what she does and wasn't pushy at all. I have yet to purchase my wedding dress, but based off of my shopping experience, and the quality of the dresses alone, KWH really stood out amongst all of the salons I visited. (Knocked Kleinfeld, Saks, Bergdorf out of the water.)

    ... The dress was a dream - the Laurel dress. I could not find a good picture of the dress anywhere online, it was definitely a rare find. The beadwork was impeccable and so unique. After seeing thousands of dresses, a lot of the beading started to look similar and it's hard for one to stand out above the rest. The matte sequin floral pattern on my dress was just subtle enough to attain that fine balance of class and character, truly a mesmerizing piece.

    5/5 would recommend for a bride who is looking for something special and their own.

    Thank you to the beautiful team at the Karen Willis Holmes Armadale store. From the first time I tried on the 'Maddie' gown through to my final fitting, nothing was ever too much for the team and it meant that I felt so comfortable on the day and like the dress had been made just for me!
    My (now) husband loved my dress as much as I did and said he couldn't have imagined me in anything else.
    Thanks again to the team for the attention to detail and time you took to make me feel so special!
