If you are looking to buy a wedding dress, BM dresses, and dresses for your moms at a store that delivers personal and friendly service by experienced staff who care about making your wedding day perfect, then I suggest you go to Carmen Fashions. After going to a few other bridal gown retailers with very little success, I decided to make an appointment at Carmen Fashions. I had been a MOH in a wedding in which the bride had gone to Carmen Fashions for her and the girls gowns several years ago and had a great experience then.so I figured Id give them a try. I went in with pictures of a few different styles that I liked but also had an open mind. Mary Jo was amazing! She picked out dresses that fit the criteria I gave her and that were within my budget. There was one dress that I absolutely loved, however, it had this beading on the top of the bust that completely ruined the dress for me and it did not have the straps and buttons I wanted. This was not a problem for Carmen Fashions though. Mary Jo told me that she could order the dress without the beading and that they could add the straps and buttons I wanted. She made me feel comfortable and confident that this could be my one of a kind perfect wedding gown. And Im so glad I trusted her and said yes to the dress! When it came in without the beading, I knew I had picked the right dress and with a few alterations appointments, it was exactly the dress I had envisioned. Not only did my gown come out perfect, the girls dresses were amazing! The alterations were done very well and the dresses couldnt have fit them better. The moms also had a wonderful experience and that is saying a lot especially since my mom isnt one for shopping let alone gown shopping. But the ladies at Carmen Fashions made it so easy and fun shopping for dresses! I cant thank Carmen Fashions enough for all the work they did on my dress, the girls dresses and the moms dresses. And I wouldnt recommend going anywhere else but there for your wedding gowns!

I was completely obsessed with a dress they had in their store window and made an appointment after going by their booth at a bridal show. I went on 1/31/2017 with my mother and future mother in law and what an amazing experience. I tried on the dress I had come in for and it didnt live up to my expectations, but my consultant was super sweet, patient and kind in helping me find other options that I would like. After trying on about 6 or 7 dresses we narrowed down two dresses that looked the best. My consultant as well as the owner were not pushy in the slightest and offered up their honest opinions instead of telling me what they thought I and my mom and future mother in law wanted to hear. I had such a fun time at Carmens getting to try on dresses and not feeling rushed or like I could only try on so many before I had to pick something. Once I was sure I had my dress my consultant put on a gorgeous veil and headpiece and thats when I knew it was my dress. Once I said yes to the dress we were served champagne and got to hang out for a bit and enjoy the moment. I have nothing by amazing things to say about Carmens Bridal. Its truly a diamond in the rough bridal store and I recommend any woman getting married to go to Carmens where they treat you like a beautiful bride instead of just a sale.

Just over a year ago, I discovered Carmen Fashions after an online wedding dress purchase went painfully awry - only 6 weeks before my wedding! Since then, not a day has gone by that I have not been profoundly grateful for all they did for me. All the ladies at Carmen Fashions were so compassionate, and eager to help me find a new dress. This was a particularly tall order because of my particularly unusual requirements - including, but not limited to, the dress had to be black! Madalena helped me find a great "base" dress and ordered it in the right color. Then she and her tailor worked with me on extensive alterations over the following weeks to transform it into the dress I had been longing for. Of course the dress was stunning. But it was just as important to me that the ladies were so very helpful and kind and accommodating, and worked so hard for me under such a short deadline. Wow. It was absolutely worth the 2.5 hour drive back and forth from NH. Carmen Fashions completely squelched all my anxiety, and turned my wedding dress experience into what I had always dreamed it would be. I feel forever indebted to these lovely ladies.

My family and I have been going to Carmen Fashions for YEARS. I am a .. pretty picky person, so when it came to looking for a dress they helped in so many ways. (I am not a dress person!!) After trying on a handful of dresses and being the "difficult to decide" Bride I finally fell in love with not one but 2 dresses... both had a different part that I loved, and comes to find out they can customize and order just how I want it !!! BINGO the customer service here is excellent and so helpful I feel so confident and not once rushed. I have told all my friends about the experience and I have to say they are a 5 star ranking! BTW, they havent moved in years....... still on pleasant ST

I have to say the store definitely needs an updating. It looks as if it hasnt seen any updated since the 70s! My consultant was nice, but definitely didnt seemed to be very interested in my purchasing a gown. Very little enthusiasm and I really didnt feel like they WANTED my business. They look like a great place for a prom gown or bridesmaid dress. Their bridal selection was small, but they were able to find some styles I liked.

I have to say I have been to many bridal shops and this was the best experience so far, so much so that I purchased my wedding gown here. Nelia is incredibly professional & friendly. I told her what I was looking for and what my budget was and she found it for me. I would absolutely recommend this place in a heart beat!!

I used to come here to buy accessories but they moved and now I have no idea where they are located. Terrible marketing for this boutique. But cute cheap ladies items in store so if u can find them its worth a look. Not just bridal dresses they have casual shoes, trendy costume jewelry, and cheaply made clothing.

I finally found the perfect dress at Carmen Fashions Bridal! The women who helped me dress were elegant and professional and when I said yes to the dress they popped a bottle of champagne for us to toast. It was a wonderful experience for my sisters and me. Thank you ladies! Pictures coming soon!
