Emelina's Bridal Boutique & Alterations 7248 North Dale Mabry Highway, Tampa, FL 33614

"THIS PLACE IS THE BEST! GET YOUR DRESS FROM HERE! From the very beginning everyone here was so nice, patient, and it felt like they were my friends helping me look for my perfect gown. They measured me for my gown and the gown came in faster than expected! It was really lose in the bust area and I was so worried that I would be charged for having to get that altered, but Jessica said that we would not be financially responsible for that and it calmed all of my worries. I really respect this business and the owner because they see things from the customer’s point of view. They have THE BEST CUSTOMER SERVICE! :)"

"I had an amazing experience at Emelina’s Bridal Boutique thanks to the owner and staff. I walked into this establishment and was serviced without an appointment while other boutiques said I would need an appointment. There were so many beautiful dresses to choose from but I was able to narrow my choices down to 2 options and purchased my dream dress! After picking my dress I moved away from Tampa but Jessica the owner and her team of seamstress worked diligently to have my dress altered in a timely fashion! I am very satisfied and would recommend this boutique for anyone searching for their dream dress"

"I cannot say enough good things about Emelina’s Bridal! Their customer service is unmatched. Jessica and her staff made my first wedding dress shopping experience unforgettable! Jessica was amazing at taking the information I gave her and pulling absolute stunning dresses for me to try on. There was a huge variety dresses to choose from in many different styles. I only had to try a few before I found the one for me! I’m so excited to wear my dream dress on my wedding day! Trying on wedding dresses here was an amazing experience I 100% recommend."

"I loved Jessica and the staff! During the last few weeks before my wedding, we saw them almost every weekend! They spent hours ensuring my dress was perfect! They saw my mom and I go through every emotion and made us feel like royalty! They really are angels! I am short and wanted a ball gown and I lost weight planning my wedding, but they were so accommodating to everything! I adore them!"

"The last thing you want is to pick up your dress the Monday before your Saturday event (which in my case was my 10th anniversary vow renewal and the wedding I never had) to find the alterations for your dress were completely botched…. But that’s what happened to me (by another seamstress) I was so upset and thought that it was a hopeless situation when I walked into Emelina’s The Tuesday before my event. The women there were so kind, and validating about all the issues with my dress. This other seamstress had cut my hem for my tea length dress unevenly by 5 inches in some spots, haphazardly thrown the sleeves on making no room for my arms and cutting into my skin…and these sweet ladies started to undo these bad alterations right there in the shop and let me make decisions for how it would look. I left my dress with them and a day and a half later picked up the dress I have spent the last 10 years dreaming of. It was perfect, and beautiful. They are truly miracle workers…. And I am beyond grateful. My biggest mistake was not bribing my dress here first for the alterations. Thank you for your kindness, professionalism and craftsmanship- because if you all I felt absolutely beautiful!"
