Dear Mary's Bridal,
Thanks so much for making the perfect wedding dress for my special day! I tried on several dresses, but none of them made me feel the way this one did! So, I special ordered it for my August 13, 2005 wedding. I couldn't have imagined wearing any other dress! I loved it so much that I ordered my Bridesmaids dresses from Mary's as well! The dresses complimented mine perfectly and looked beautiful on all of the girls! Thanks for being such a big part of my wedding day!
Sincerely,

Dear Mary's,
After trying on what seemed to be HUNDREDS of dresses, I had finally found
my dress in the catalog after talking with a local wedding dress shop owner.
She had stated Mary's had the most elegant and affordable gowns she knew.
She gave me the collection catalog to look through. Man, was she on the
money! As soon as I seen style F058416 I knew it was the one.
Unfortunately, the shop didn't have it in stock. I then drove to
a store only a few miles away just to try it on. My maid of honor just
stopped when I came out of the dressing room. My mom, my other bridesmaids,
and the rest of the shop then all seemed to just stare. We ALL knew it
was the one. I went back to the original shop and the owner stated
even though she didn't normally carry it, she would special order it
for me. I am was so happy!
On our wedding day, my dad had a tear as he was taking me down the aisle.
My husband then later confessed he thought I was so beautiful that he got
choked up as I walked down the aisle. I especially loved the
detachable cap sleeves that looked elegant at church and came off to party
down at the reception. Thanks Mary's for making my day extra
special.

Dear Marys Bridal,
I just wanted to say thank you for making my dream wedding happen. I chose
the dress from the cover of your Fall 2004 catalog in Ivory for my June
18th, 2005 wedding. I tried on over 30 dresses, yet when I tried this one
on, I just knew this was it. I received many compliments as well! your gowns
are exquisite and the best! keep up the great work!
Best Wishes,

| I celebrated a very important time in my life on
May 28, 2005 my Quinceanera. It was a celebration full of
traditions and very beautiful moments. My Great-grandfather by
my father side actually danced with me and it was a very memorable
moment he is 97 years old. I had family travel from Salinas Puerto
Rico, Paterson , New Jersey and Salt Lake City , Utah it was
wonderful, This day will be forever in my memory . My dress
was beautiful also (S054796 ivory/gold). I looked and felted like a
princess I loved it so much that I didn't want to take it off at the
end of the night. Thank you .... |
I and my husband were married on June 4th 2005. I fell in
love with my Mary's dress from the moment I saw it in a magazine. I
wasn't sure I was going to be able to purchase it because the wedding was
only 3 months away and I had never seen the dress in person before and that
made me nervous so I searched for other dresses and every dress I tried on I
kept comparing to the mary's dress. I found a bridal shop who said
they could get me the dress on time and I was elated! I was nervous waiting
for my mary's dress to arrive, but when it did it was everything I imagined
it would be and more! My husband loved my dress, and everyone said I looked
like a princess on my wedding day and I couldn't believe that I could look
as beautiful as I felt! Thank You

Thank you to Mary's Bridal for making me look like
a real princess while wearing your Moda Bella Collection S029129. I
was married in Disney World June 4 2005 and I turned every head and
received so many compliments of how beautiful my dress was. My
husband was stunned and impressed by how the train flowed like water
as I walked down the isle. I had strangers take my picture as got
into my pumpkin coach to attend the ceremony! Little girls asked me
if I was a princess! Your dress was absolutely more beautiful than I
could have ever expected. |
Dear
Mary's,
I wanted to thank you for caring my dream wedding dress. I had
such a hard time finding a dress that would work for me. I have a skin
disorder on my Back, Arms and Shoulders. Trying to find a dress that
has long sleeves and that covered my back is almost next to impossible,
everything is halter style, off the shoulder's and sleeveless etc...
I thought to my self, what am I going to do? I was thinking, I was
going to have to have something made and I did not want a homemade dress. A
girl on her wedding day wants her dream dress.
Until I found Mary's Bridal... There were so many choices I was
thrilled and I loved the Queen Anne neckline that was another feature, I was
looking for and I could not find.... The dress style I chose was
Style #8404
My husband and I were married on April 2, 2005 and
are so in Love...
We have been together for 3 1/2 years and we were so excited for our
wedding it was the most magical day we could ever ask for. Thank you again
for making my dreams come true......

The first dress I saw when I opened the Bridal Magazine
was Style 6160. I instantly fell in love with it. Sadly I could not afford
it as our wedding was on a very tight budget. I bought another dress but
still kept on thinking about that gorgeous gown. A few months before my
wedding I confessed to my husband that I hated my dress and that I had found
my dream dress. Wonderful man that he is, he told me if it meant that much
to me he would find a way to buy it, and he did. I
felt like an empress on my wedding day. The dress was amazing. Now I am
Matron of Honor in my friends wedding and she hopes to wear my dress as
well.

My husband Aaron was in the Marines for 4 yrs and decided to join
the National Guard shortly after the September 11th tragedy occurred.
We met at a club on Thurs. April 18, 2002, after he had been activated
to guard a major Cleveland Airport for several months. After dating
long-distance for 7 months, Aaron moved to Cleveland in December of
2002. He proposed to me on New Years Eve of '02, after I had worked a
long 3-11 shift at the hospital where I'm a nurse. He had my parent's
backyard deck all "decked out" with a candle and red rose petal path,
which led to the patio table which was decorated with hearts a rock that
said "Love" on it (which is also my middle name), and a card telling me
how much he loved me. When I was done reading it, I turned and he was on
one knee asking me to marry him.
I had gone dress shopping with my sister (My Maid of Honor) and once I put on the Mary's style #F017171, I knew it was the one. My sister and I went back a few days later with our mom. When I put it on her exact words were: "Oh, this is totally you Stephanie; I couldn't even picture you in anything else". I knew after hearing my mom say that, that it definitely was the one.
We were married on the warmest day we had this past spring-April 18, 2004. I was so excited that I finally got to wear my gown, which I had tried on SO many times! My favorite thing about the dress was the detachable train. It was wonderful to just detach the 15lb piece of fabric and dance around freely all night!
Thanks Mary's!
After seeing your website and reading the wedding stories, I felt inspired
to share memories of my special day in my beautiful Mary's dress. I
met Scott 4 1/2 years ago at our church. We began a special friendship
that continues to this day! After going through our share of many great
times and even some sad times together, we were married on October 23, 2004.
When I tried on #SO48331 from the Fairy Tale Princess collection, I wanted
it right away. I loved the simple elegance of the cut, the beading, and the
unique aproned back. I ordered the dress in my size from a local shop, and
it came weeks earlier than expected. When the shop called to tell me
it had arrived, I immediately jumped in the car to go get it. I
couldn't wait to put it on! When I did, I was thrilled with the
delicate ivory color. I couldn't stop looking at it in the mirror. It also
fit perfectly, and the only alteration it needed was the bustle in the back.
I couldn't believe how perfect it was.
On our wedding day, as I walked down the aisle toward
the man of my
dreams, I felt so beautiful in my dress. Afterwards at the reception,
I was able to dance the night away and felt very comfortable. I could have
celebrated all night, and we almost did! For some of us, the party continued
at a nearby sports bar once the reception ended. I felt so proud
strutting into the place in my dress with my handsome groom amidst all the
looks and stares, as well as shouts of well wishes and congratulations.
I received so many compliments from my friends and family about the dress
and the one I heard the most was, "That dress!!! It's so YOU!!"
which I thought was a great compliment and one every bride should hear.
When I look at the pictures, months later, I still can't stop looking at the
dress and feeling so grateful at the beauty of it, the color, the reasonable
price, and how it seems like it was made just for me.
Thank you Mary's, for helping to make my
special day just right!

I just had to share my love story with you. I met my husband almost 4 years ago when he fixed my car for me. His brother, who also worked there, suggested he try to introduce himself the next time I went in to have my car serviced. He wasn't able to do that but he did catch a glimpse of me and decided to send me a note through the mail to ask if I would be interested in getting to know him - he said I had great eyes and a beautiful smile. WOW - a real old fashioned gentleman.
When I met him for our first date I had no idea who he was or what he would look like. I hit the jackpot - he is absolutely wonderful. We were married on June 29, 2002. The winter before the wedding I handed him a stack of pictures of wedding gowns from bridal magazines. I asked him to look through and eliminate the ones he really didn't like. He was a good sport and did just that. A while later he handed me back a much smaller stack! and said "I like all of these but I really love this one" and handed me a picture of dress # S008238. I couldn't believe he picked my favorite!
I had to find that dress! I did, thankfully, and I just have to tell you I got so many compliments on it - I truly felt like a princess. The craftsmanship was impeccable - the detail on the dress was exquisite - and the price was so reasonable! My groom was so shocked when I walked down the aisle in that dress! Good luck to all future brides - enjoy every minute - it is your day - and enjoy married life!

My daughter and her future husband decided on a beach wedding and a reception on a yacht.
The wedding was held on the beach is Newport Beach CA and the reception on a yacht in Newport harbor. To compliment the theme my daughter chose the Mary's Couture mermaid gown.
The entire wedding was perfect and she received innumerable compliments on her gown.

This story isn't about my wedding but it is about my friend
Hedva's
wedding. I went to Elementary School and and High School with Hedva.
After High School, we went to separate universities. I went to Cornell
University and I met this guy Jon. I thought he would be the perfect guy
for my friend Hedva. On October 17th, 2004, Hedva and Jon got married.
Hedva asked me to be a bridesmaid. The plan was to have all the
bridesmaids dresses made but at 6 weeks before the wedding, the dresses
were not finished and didn't look very good so we all decided to get our
own dresses even if they looked different. I wanted to get a special
dress since Well, I live in Starkville, MS and there aren't very many
bridal stores in the area so I looked online and came across marysbridal.
Thank goodness there was a marys bridal distributor 30 min from where I
lived. Marysbridal saved the day. The dress arrived a week before the
wedding with just enough time to have any alterations made. I love the
dress and I got many compliments at the wedding.
Thank you

Dear Mary's Bridal
My husband and I had a somewhat
unconventional meeting! He lived
in Australia and I here in the states. When we meet for the first time it
was as if we had been destine for one another our whole lives. When he
asked me to marry him I never hesitated in saying yes. He was my prince my
knight in shinning armor. I started looking for a wedding dress straight
away.
I had been looking for a dress for months, searching
magazine after magazine, web site after web site and then I spotted my
wedding dress in one of the ads from a brochure company! I loved your style!
I checked out your web site and you offered the most amazing dresses! I was
looking for a dress that would match how I felt about my soon to
husband...My knight in shinning armor! I found the perfect dress for my
fairy tail wedding. I felt like a princess! I will always remember the
moment my husband saw me coming down the isle and saying to me with a tear
in his eye " you are so beautiful to me". Thanks so much Mary's Bridal!

My husband and I met through a friend almost 5 years ago. I knew that he was the one even before our first date. He was so handsome and so kind. 2 1/2 years later he surprised me with a beautiful engagement ring. He asked me to marry him when we stopped by the lake while riding our bikes. It was the perfect proposal. He got down on one knee and I immediately started to cry. He actually thought I didn't like the ring. They were definitely tears of joy.
Here are some pictures of our winter wedding day. The girls are wearing dresses made from crushed velvet in cranberry. They were made specially by a friend along with the faux fur muffs. It was truly the winter wedding I had always dreamed of. Thanks to Mary's for the beautiful gown and help set off the winter theme.
I was married on December 1st 2001 and wore a Mary's wedding gown # 8266. I wanted to tell you that even though that was eight months ago already I still get compliments on the dress. It is very unique. I was looking for a winter dress and when I put that one on I knew it was the one. I thought it would be nice to give some feedback and let you know that the dress was so well liked . This dress fit me beautiful I loved it so much it was perfect I felt like a princess with it on. I refer all the future brides to visit Mary's bridal its the best investment you will ever make thank you for making my day complete.
Sincerely
Robyn Kortz
I saw the gown online during the summer of 2001. I fell in love with it! I printed the picture, and hid it from my boyfriend, because we weren't engaged yet and I didn't want to scare him. He proposed to me in November 2001. I brought the picture to DuBois Bridal in Green Bay, and told them, "I want this dress in platinum". The manager of DuBois told me that the style that I picked out had been discontinued!" But since Mary's Bridal had a little platinum fabric left over, they said that they could make me one from scratch! (AWESOME!) That's what they did ... the dress was absolutely gorgeous, and perfect! At my wedding, I got an infinite number of compliments on the dress. Everybody said, "I've never seen a platinum dress ... It's gorgeous ... I love it".
Here are a few pictures from my wedding. You made my dress especially for me! It was beautiful!
Thank You,

Hi, my love story is based on two different countries and two different races. My husband is from Buffalo ,New York and I am from Ontario Canada. We met in October of 1995 when he got out of the military. The wedding was so beautiful, we married in Canada and reside here now. I searched for a year until I found the perfect dress!! I had to have this Mary's Dress so I went on a mission and made the 2 hour drive to Toronto Canada , I had them bring the dress in for me and when it got there and I tried it on I felt it was made with me in mind!! the dress was who I am and I felt so good in it.
Thank you Mary's Bridal for making my day a dream come true!

My husband and I met online in the winter of 1998. We were friends for a few years and finally in September of 2001 we fell in love.
After our engagement in September of 2002, it was time to pick out the gown I wanted to wear in my wedding. I was so very picky I thought I would never find "the dress"! But then I saw a picture of Mary's Couture Style: #F026160 and I fell in love with it! After much searching I located a bridal shop 2 hours from my home that could order the dress for me. I have never looked as beautiful as I did on my wedding day and I received hundreds of compliments on my gown!
Today my dress sits in my closet begging to
be worn. I wonder how the people at the grocery store would react if I
wore it to pick up some apples. Hehe.
