I could not be more pleased with my experience at Oak City Bridal. Stacia has such a warm personality, and she is patient and helpful. The environment is clean and beautiful. She clearly pours all her passion into her business, which is the kind of place you want to go to. It was a perfect boutique one-on-one experience that was very personalized. I was sort of dreading dress shopping because I thought it would unavoidably cost several thousands of dollars or Id have to settle getting one I didnt love for less. On the wedding dress cost spectrum, these are super reasonable, you really cant beat the prices (especially given the quality). And on top of it, her selection was so good -- before coming here, I didnt see anything that I really loved (they were also way more expensive). But here there were several dresses that I LOVED so I had a really hard time choosing between them. Seriously they were all gorgeous. Here, you can simply walk out the door with your dress so it removes the stress of typical ordering and waiting for your dress in enough time to alter before the wedding. She was also really accommodating as I changed my original appointment to the next day and also came back the following day to try on my top 2 before deciding. 5 stars all the way!!

I had a great experience at Oak City Bridal. The owner, Stacia, was very communicative and patient! I accidentally showed up 30 minutes early and she gladly took me in so I didn’t have to wait.The dress selection is very nice. There was several in my size which is RARE to come by!Would recommend this place to any bride looking! Prices are also reasonable!Thanks Stacia!

The owner Stacia is so sweet! I really loved the Experience I had trying on dresses, and choosing my dream dress! It was intimate and I felt relaxed trying on dresses because I was the only one there so I could really take my time and take it all in. I really enjoyed the vibe and small boutique atmosphere, rather then a huge bridal shop where you get lost and there are so many people around you. She has a variety of dresses to choose from, all amazing designers! Thank you Stacia for helping me find my dream dress :) PERFECT for our Beach Wedding!

Said yes to the dress at this wonderful, relaxed location last year. Just got married in my gown and I felt like a total princess! A greater variety of beautiful dresses for a great price, with friendly and flexible staff. Really made my moment special!

I had a great experience at Oak City Bridal. I am very short and all the new gowns Id tried on elsewhere were extremely long and going to take an extensive amount of alterations to make them short enough for me. I found a gorgeous dress that was exactly what I was looking for that fit me perfectly, and best of all, it had already been shortened and was the PERFECT length! Sunny was great to work with and it was a very nice place to visit and find my perfect dress. Highly recommend anyone looking for a dress to visit here and see if your perfect dress is waiting for you. Mine was!

She was so kinda and welcoming! Her store is so clean and she didnt rush our appointment in anyway. She was very flexible with budgeting and payments and extremely well priced. She has one of a kind dresses and a beautiful assortment to pick from. She was more then flexible with me in getting my dress to me via shipment with a very kind note attached to a beautiful dress bag she gifted me. I would recommend her shop before any other. She gave my sister and I the absolute best, stress free experience! 6 stars if i could!

I would highly recommend Oak City Bridal to any bride looking for a special experience and a wide variety of dresses. I contacted Stacia about her dress selections prior to making an appointment. As a plus size bride I wanted to shop local but also wanted to have the opportunity to shop from a wide selection like any other bride. Stacia did not disappoint! She had a wide variety of sizes, including a great selection for plus size women. She was so sweet, helpful, and really took the time to make me feel comfortable. Her prices are reasonable but your experience with her will be priceless. Thank you, Stacia!

My experience with Oak City Bridal was so relaxing and fun! Stacia greeted us and gave us a run down of the organization of the dresses. She allowed me to look through all of them, pulling out the ones I was most drawn to. Based on what I told her I was leaning towards, she determined the order and set up me in the dressing room. I fell in love with the second dress I tried on, but didnt feel comfortable pulling the trigger that quickly. I emailed Stacia the next morning that I was ready to move forward and she quickly responded that she had an opening later that morning where I could come and try on the dress to make sure. I walked out a happy girl! Thank you Stacia and Oak City Bridal for such a great experience!

I had the best experience at Oak City! Stacia and Sunny were fantastic to work with. I did not feel rushed or pressured at all. My family lives all over the US, so they were not able to be there for dress shopping. I am beyond thankful that both Sunny and Stacia worked with me to get my mom on Zoom. They handled the computer so my mom and I were able to share the experience.They worked with me to help me find my dream dress within my budget and I cannot wait to wear it.

0 Stars. Corresponded with OCB through FB messenger & they were unresponsive. Drove here from over an hour away and when I got close I keyed the address in only to realize they are by appointment only. Had they responded I would have realized that. I gave them a quick call to see if they could accommodate and no one answered the phone. Annoyed that I took an afternoon off of work for this.

Absolutely loved my experience at Oak City Bridal and 10/10 would recommend.Stacia and her intern were so pleasant to work with. They really try to understand your style, and are not pushy at all. Plus, Stacia has a great understanding of what kind of alterations are doable which makes envisioning your final look that much easier. I booked my appointment at the end of May, and the store was spotless and we all wore masks the entire time and it felt extremely safe. The best part? I got to take my dream gown home that day, so there is no worries about your dress getting ordered incorrectly or supply chain issues due to COVID-19.

I absolutely loved Oak City Bridal!! The choices of gowns and price points were absolutely perfect. She was so helpful and kind, and did a great job of listening and acting on feedback I gave about dresses. The shop itself is so spacious and private which was a huge plus as well. Come here to shop for your dress!!!

Stacia was so welcoming and helpful! My wedding coordinator highly recommended her boutique to try on dresses for my first time. I had no idea what to expect, but it was such an extraordinarily memorable and fun experience. She has a wide variety of dresses- consignment and samples, all different styles and sizes.The dress that I found was a sample dress and it was in perfect condition, and a very affordable price.Stacia also has good recommendations for alteration locations. Overall, my experience was the best!

There are a variety of beautiful dresses to browse through as well as wedding day accessories. You will be the only party present which makes the experience very special. There is a magical feeling in Stacias store, I would recommend it to anyone!

I cannot recommend Oak City Bridal enough! Stacia was incredibly helpful and knowledgeable about the feasibility of alterations to the dresses I tried on and just all around a pleasure to work with. The dresses she has are amazing, with lots of different styles and price points. Her shop is beautiful, relaxed, and overall it was just an amazing experience!

Such a wonderful experience. We found my daughters perfect dress today, thanks to Stacia. We have been shopping for several weeks to no avail for a dress for my daughter. I contacted Stacia earlier this week, told her what we were looking for, and she sent a picture of the perfect dress. We went in today, tried on the dress, and it was perfect. I highly recommend this bridal boutique!

I had the best experience at Oak City Bridal! Stacia truly goes above and beyond to create an inventory of such beautiful dresses, I had so many to choose from! It was my first time trying on dresses and I am happy to say it took no time at all for me to fall in love with THE dress. I loved the fact that the dresses were budget friendly, and in my opinion, very unique! I am incredibly happy I chose to go to Oak City Bridal and could not be more pleased with my experience. Thank you Stacia for making me feel so special on that day - I cant wait to wear my dress in December!

I had the most wonderful experience at Oak City Bridal! Stacia was so comforting and professional, and she really went above and beyond in helping me find the perfect dress. The dress selection was beautiful and so well curated and the atmosphere was relaxed (and so cute, the house is gorgeous). Would highly recommend brides-to-be shop here for their wedding dress!

Oak City is an absolutely beautiful place to shop for your dream gown! Stacia is warm and personable and really listens to what youre looking for. She also provides ideas for options to alter the gown that I hadnt considered. The shop itself is gorgeous and very cozy, it makes you feel really comfortable while shopping.

Has a lovely welcoming atmosphere. I talked with Stacia over email before going and discussed what styles I liked and I sent her my pinterest boards. When I visited for my appointment she had already picked a few dresses based on what I had told her and she was helpful and not pushy. Completely recommend Oak City to anyone.

Not only did I find the dress of my dreams at Oak City Bridal (after trying on dozens of dresses at other stores), but I also had a wonderful experience throughout the whole process! Stacia is extremely sweet and professional, and the atmosphere is very relaxed. The dress selection is also beautiful and unique - not the same kind of dresses you see over and over. Make an appointment!!

I loved Oak City Bridal!!! Stacia was SO sweet and helpful!! I had such a wonderful experience, she answered all of my questions (even the ones that weren’t dress related) and went above and beyond to make sure I was content with my dress choice. She even suggested a seamstress. I picked about 12 dresses, and then she picked some she thought I’d like as well (my dress ended up being one she picked for me!!). She picked up on the styles I was loving right away, and she helped me get out of my comfort zone and try on dresses I didn’t think I’d like. I had such a fun time, and I’ve been recommending her non stop since my appointment. Stacia has such a sweet and selfless vibe, you’ll leave feeling like you just made a friend for life!

Oak City Bridal was the perfect dress shopping experience. The large inventory allows you to try on all different style of dresses without the fear of being outside of your budget. I am so glad I went to Oak City Bridal for my first experience because it narrowed me down on what style and silhouette I wanted and I was also pampered in the process. I went to other bridal boutiques and didnt have anywhere near the same experience. I went back to Oak City Bridal the next day to purchase the dress I had on hold. Thank you Stacia for all your help and I cant wait to wear my dress in October!

I would recommend anyone and everyone to Oak City Bridal! Great selection of beautiful dresses in each and every style. The experience was one to remember. It was such a relaxing and enjoyable experience for everyone involved. I was glad I didn’t have to go to a busy bridal boutique like most brides. The owner Stacia was amazing, and was very easy to contact and responded quickly. She was the best!!! If you are looking for a one of a kind, unique, and awesome experience, Oak City Bridal is the best by far!!!

I had a fantastic experience at Oak City Bridal! It was my very first time trying on wedding dresses and I was so nervous! Stacia took time to get to know my style, personality and details about my future wedding. She popped champagne and let my sister and I browse through her collection and take out all of the dresses we liked. As I was trying on dresses she helped me figure out my likes and dislikes. Stacia pulled other dresses for me to try on that I wouldn’t have a pulled for myself. I ended up finding the perfect dress and I can not wait to wear it on my wedding day! I knew it was the one when I didn’t want to take it off. Stacia’s bridal shop is so chic and comfortable, and her collection is awesome. I highly recommend Oak City Bridal!

Review №33

What a wonderful shopping experience! What we loved is that we were able to look through the dresses ourselves and pick out what we though we would like, and then the owner would pick up on my daughters taste and add suggestions. We selected one of the dresses she recommended. Compared to the other places we tried the prices were very reasonable and there was a range of prices in our budget. The shop is very clean and appealing and the owner made the changing experience very comfortable for our daughter, unlike the other places we tried. Could not be more pleased - highly recommend Oak City Bridal!

Working with Stacia at Oak City Bridal to find my wedding dress was amazing! Her shop is so cute and she has a wide variety of dress styles, sizes and prices to choose from. She helped me make sure I was picking dresses in my budget and did great with hearing what I was looking for and making some suggestions. It was very casual and definitely fun for my mom and I and I loved being able to take my dress home that day. The payment process was easy and Stacia is so sweet and fun to work with. So glad I found Oak City Bridal!!

I cant even begin to explain how such a great experience I had at Oak City Bridal. Im a decently shy person, and Stacia made me and my mom and sister all feel extremely comfortable and welcome. She was super patient with me while I tried on essentially the entire shop and with the awesome selection of dresses I was able to find the perfect dress! I recommend anyone and everyone to book an appointment at Oak City Bridal when dress shopping. The selection of dresses is amazing, affordable, and Stacia is so friendly! Cant wait to wear my dress!

I had the best experience at Oak City Bridal, trying on and finding the perfect dress! I loved that the dresses were all at reasonable price points and Stacia made me feel comfortable and was so easy to work with! It was especially nice being the only client in the store, which made for an intimate and special experience. Stacia is not pushy at all, and really pays attention to what the Bride wants/loves :)

Had the best time at Oak City Bridal and found the perfect dress and bolero! Adorable shop with tons of different options and price points. Stacia was so fun to work with and helped pull great options but wasn’t pushy. You get the whole store to yourself which makes it really intimate and helped me relax. Wish I could do it all over again!

Stacia at Oak City Bridal is amazing! I was having a hard time deciding on where to go for wedding dress shopping, as everywhere seemed to be very pricey, or had really horrible reviews. I wanted a dress with a reasonable budget, but to still be treated well and have a good experience. As soon as I discovered Oak City Bridal, I knew it was the shop for me. Stacia was so friendly and helpful. The experience was everything I could have dreamed of about shopping for my wedding dress. The one-on-one experience made it very relaxing, allowed me and my family to take our time without feeling rushed. When we first arrived, she sat down and chatted with me, taking the time to get to know me and my style. Then allowed us to look through all the dresses she had in stock at our own pace. When it was time to try them on, she was great! Ive never been wedding dress shopping before, so I had no idea what to expect. Was I going to be undressing in front of some woman I had just met? Not at Oak City Bridal! Stacia was very respectful, she has a curtained off dressing room where you slip into the dress and when youre ready, she steps in to help zip you up. She was very helpful and even played devils advocate to help make sure I was picking the right dress. In the end, she knew exactly what I needed to top off my dress and make it perfect! The whole experience was enjoyable from start to finish and I am so happy with my dress. The best part, you get to take it home with you right away! If youre looking for a wedding dress, this NEEDS to be your first stop! So glad I found Stacia!

Had a great time at Oak City Bridal! The boutique is lovely and Stacia was so patient with us. She really helped me to be at ease during the entire time as there were many beautiful wedding dress options. She also stayed within the price point and wasn’t pushy in any way. The prices were also very reasonable for the one-of-a-kind dress options available here.

I had a delightful time at Oak City Bridal! The whole idea of having to decide on a dress really stressed me out, but I could not have asked for a more relaxed experience. Stacia was super helpful and even provided drinks for all of us! Their selection is large enough to provide tons of options, but it’s not too overwhelming! I absolutely love my dress, and I would highly recommend shopping at Oak City Bridal!

I had the loveliest time with Stacia - she is so down to earth and made me feel very comfortable. My family lives out of state so I went to my appointment by myself, but chatting with Stacia made me feel like I was trying on dresses with my sister. She has a great selection of really unique gowns and is knowledgeable about alterations. Definitely recommend!

Oak City Bridal is the absolute best!!! Stacia is a joy to work with and she truly cares about finding you, your dream dress.I tried on 5-6 dresses while I was there. I told her all my ideas, what I loved and and what I didn’t like about the dresses I tried on. I went into dress shopping very open because I wasn’t sure what would look good on me since I’d never tried on a wedding dress before. Stacia listened to all my thoughts; likes and dislikes and after trying on so many gorgeous dresses I liked; SHE brought down THE dress from upstairs. After listening to me and seeing me try on dresses; she found me the ONE. I was soooo happy! She truly knows what she’s doing and cares so much about making you happy and feel comfortable with her. She was super easy to work with and knew exactly what to do. I was so impressed that she took in all my thoughts and was able to find the dress that was ME and made me feel so confident. Not to mention, all the dresses are very reasonably priced!Stacia always stayed in great contact with me even through the mini hurricane Dorian we had when I was suppose to pick up the dress; she went out of her way to coordinate a time that worked perfect for me. I can’t recommend this place enough!!! It should be every brides first stop. She has a GREAT selection of anything you could ever want in a gown. I wanted to be sure I had a long train and boy did she deliver.She also made my best friend, mom, and aunt feel so comfortable; we fell in love with her store and her bubbly personality. The one on one consultation is a game changer.By the end, I could talk to her about anything and she really got me.Oak City, you did not disappoint! I am one happy bride! Thank you, Stacia!!! Xoxo

Visited here for an appointment for my friend’s bridal gown hunt. It was such a breath of fresh air after visiting the big bridal dress store that was crowded and anxiety driven. Oak City Bridal has a unique concept and a very personal touch. A very pleasant experience and service. I’d recommend brides to visit here especially after visiting one of the big one-stop bridal shops. The change in pace will be a welcomed change and gives the bride and the group more time to think and enjoy.

I highly recommend Oak City Bridal! The shop is warm and inviting, with service to match. We had a genuine experience and the bride purchased her wedding gown from here. The prices are more affordable than the other places in downtown Raleigh and you get to take the dress home with you that day. I encourage anyone seeking a personalized dress shopping experience to check this place out.

I wish I could give Oak City Bridal 10 stars! I had been to multiple bridal stores before I found Stacia. None of them compared to Oak City Bridal. Stacia was absolutely amazing. She made my sister and I feel welcome and never made me feel like I was being pressured into purchasing a dress. This amazing experience along with a fabulous inventory allowed me to find my PERFECT dress! Stacia, thank you SO much for giving me the best experience ever!!

If youre looking for a wedding dress that wont break the bank, but still looks fabulous- this is the place for you! The staff were very friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. I was initially skeptical about having to put a deposit on my appointment, but they were well worth the money! I had the entire shop to myself when I went in for my appointment. The staff helped me pick out dresses that were within my very tight budget (no more than $650), and were very helpful with making sure I only saw options I could afford in the styles I asked for. Their selection was bigger than I had expected, and the dress that I bought still had tags on it from its original purchase. In addition to helping me find my dress, they also had great accessories that I ended up purchasing, and they made the recommendation for a tailor who did a stunning job with the adjustments I needed for a reasonable price. 10outta10 would strongly recommend to anyone looking for fantastic service within a tight budget.

I had the best experience at Oak City Bridal with Stacia and my family! The dresses were all gorgeous and reasonably priced and Stacia was incredible. I was a little nervous about dress shopping, but Stacia made it so easy! I’m a little more reserved and I loved that I was able to get in all of the dresses by myself and Stacia then would come in and help me finish zipping. Before my family or I were able to see the dress, Stacia used the clips to help make it look perfect which helped me to not bias myself against dresses that weren’t quite how they would actually look! I tried on a lot of dresses and there was nothing but support and ecouragement from Stacia! I never felt rushed or anything negative, it was just the most positive and fun experience!Also, my sister brought my 7month old nephew and it was the easiest setting to bring him to with our family being the only people there and Stacia just being so down to earth!I found my dress here and am so in love with it! A huge positive is that I just got to take it home with me! A few of my friends have had issues with their dresses when it has to be ordered for them. Shopping at Oak City takes that anxiety away becuse you leave the store with your dress. The whole experience was absolutely perfect and better than I could have ever imagined! Thank you!!! :)
