Mayfair Bridal Inc

While we did not end up getting my daughter’s gown here, it was overall a positive experience. They have a good, if somewhat overwhelming, selection of gowns, reasonably priced. We found a gown at our first appointment, and came to Mayfair to see if there was anything my daughter loved more. Yazmin was very helpful, pulling some gowns that were similar in style and a few that were very different. There were 2 – 3 that she liked, but as we sat over lunch comparing pictures, she decided the dress at the first appointment was the one for her. The seating area at Mayfair is small, and could get crowded if more than 2 brides are shopping at one time. And the dresses are in their plastic bags, which makes it a bit more challenging to look at them. But I want to recognize them for working with my daughter, helping her with her decision. Thank you very much.

I purchased my gown in Austin, and wish I bought it from Mayfair! I was so in love with my gown, but the customer service I received in a major Austin boutique was incredibly lackluster and pretty disappointing for what this experience should be.
Anyway! I was given a recommendation of a not so well reviewed place for alterations by said Austin bridal shop, only to do my own research and find that Mayfair sounded well worth the hour drive.
I only had a few weeks left before my wedding, with a heavily beaded ballgown that needed major alterations, and from the moment I walked in the door Theresa made me feel welcome and her and the additional seamstress seemed 100% confident they could fix my dress and in the exact time frame we needed. They did and completely made my wedding what it was! I felt beautiful and my dress fit me like a damn princess.
Thank you SO much to the entire staff at this fabulous little bridal shop!

I had been to a couple of other dress appointments before my time at Mayfair. And let me say that my time here could not have been better! Jennie was so amazing. She listened to me and looked at a couple of pictures I brought.
My small group and I were seated while Jennie picked some dresses. She chose mostly those along the guidelines I had given and one or two that she thought I might be surprised by.
She did her job too well! I had a hard decision upon leaving the store as the dresses she pulled were exactly how I envisioned myself. But there were three of them and all very different.
I could not have been happier with my visit. The store is small but packed with all kinds of dresses. Jennie was truly a blessing to this bride as I wasn’t sure the direction I wanted and she helped guide me and see my vision come to life. She was patient and knowledgable. Oh and she stayed in my budget, which I cannot say about some other stores.
Overall I cannot recommend this place enough! My whole party left being blown away with our positive experience. Thank you for making this experience even more special!

I had an appointment here last weekend and it was a great experience! Theresa was amazing. Friendly, knowledgeable, patient and great to laugh with. I tried on dresses that were beautiful but had details I was not in love with and she understood all my strange comments and requests (which is a miracle-​as my feedback on dresses ranged from laughter when I saw myself in the mirror, to things like ‘this front part looks like wings’ and ‘the fabric needs to be stiffer’). Somehow she converted all my comments into data to find me the perfect dress and was complimentary but not at all pushy as I twirled in the dress forever in the salon and had to leave and come back an hour later to be sure it was the one and try it on all over again and twirl around some more. During the hour that I was gone, she was busily at work making some small adjustments to the gown as I’m sure her experience and intuition told her I would be back for it. She sewed in an extra little hook above the zipper and hid the hanging loop with her seam-​stressing skills so that the dress can be hung but the loop is not visible behind the train when wearing it. Wonderful service.
She also was wonderful at finding a dress within my budget. The dress fit perfectly and needs no alterations so I got to take it home immediately where I will admire it for the next six months until my wedding. The rest of the staff that I met was also welcoming, friendly and gave me feedback on the dresses which was helpful.

I had a great experience there Janie was awesome she great she took care of me from start to finish and when my niece was getting crazy they all understood they even put her in a little dress definitely coming back if I cant find my dress

I hate leaving negative reviews, but this place was very awkward. First, I made my appointment for 3:00PM. When I walked in, the ladies told me that my appointment wasn’t until 3:30PM, so they had me wait for a while. I know I made my appointment for 3PM, because I had other appointments to make that day. Another bride who walked in at the same time was accepted immediately. But whatever — I waited. When I finally started trying dresses on, I told the woman helping me that I really wanted a strapless dress with no rhinestones or sequins on the gown — something simple. She kept giving me dresses with straps AND sequins! It was very awkward because I didn’t like any of the gowns she chose. It’s also a small shop, and the other bride was using the main mirror and her friends were taking up the majority of the seats. I was kind of pushed to a mirror on the side, and my parents didn’t have a whole lot of room to sit. I felt ignored from the moment I walked in, until the moment we left. FYI, I found my dress at Impression Bridal, which is not too far from this place.

When we first arrived, there was a mix up with our appointment time. Turns out I missed my appointment by a day, but Angelica and Jenni were very accommodating. They asked if I could come back in an hour and half and I didn’t mind, as we could shop around the area. My only complaint is that I didn’t receive a reminder call before the appointment, and I wish I had. That was a very minor complaint, and I will still give them 5 stars for service! When we came back Jenni was the associate who helped me. This was the first bridal store I was told to have a seat and relax while dresses were pulled for me. I remember telling my sister how does this woman know my size and how will she pull what I like just going by one or two pics I showed her?! But Jenni was spot on. The first dress I tried on I liked but didn’t love. The next was just not me, but the third one I knew from the moment I pulled it up that I would walk down the aisle in it! Jenni was FANTASTIC and extremely fast and efficient as she helped me in an out of each dress… seriously like a machine. She knew her stuff and this made my visit so effortless and enjoyable, the way I had been hoping it would be. I ended up getting a great deal on my dress and it was exactly in my budget. They offered me 10% off since I bought it off the rack, then I was able to set up monthly payments (which was exactly what I needed). I highly recommend Mayfair bridal. It’s tiny when you walk in and FULL of dresses but don’t walk out, give it a try. They will handle everything for you. Excellent experience!

This tiny store is overcrowded with too many dresses to see. The sales staff picked out several after hearing what I was interested in. I had to share a «stage» (whatever they call it) with another bride who had a huge entourage. We left with no plans to immediately return. I think I could find my gown here if I come on a weekday and there were fewer other customers straining to see past me to compliment the other girl trying on dresses. I have to give them a second chance.

After having the WORST experience at another salon earlier in the day, this place was so nice. It’s small, but PACKED with tons of dresses and the consultants help you try on dresses until you find THE dress. Jasmine was absolutely wonderful and she helped me say yes to the dress (after trying on an embarring number of dresses). It was a bit crowded in the «show off the dress» area as myself and 2 other brides were taking turns and all of our friends filled the space, too. It was fun, though. Everyone was so positive and it was fun to have the extra «ooooohs» and «ahhhhhhs» when coming out in different gowns. GREAT PLACE!

If it weren’t for falling in love with another dress at another boutique, I would 100% of bought here just for the customer service they provided. Teresa was great! I walked in almost 45 minutes early to my appointment expecting to wait but she immediately greeted me with a smile and went right to work with me hunting for a dress. She listened to my wants and style and even gave me some options that were similar to my style but a different brand than I thought I would like.
Yes, the space is small and yes, it is a little cluttered with dresses but being this was my first dress appointment and from what I’ve seen on tv (say yes to the dress), it wasnt anything I was surprised with. If you’ve ever seen that show and see the consultants going to the back stock room and looking through the rows of dresses… thats what this place is like. I personally appreciate that because I would much rather be hands on in choosing out my own dress then giving that responsibility to the consultant solely.
I didnt have a huge entourage (just my MOH and I) but I can see a big group getting overwhelmed especially is there are multiple appointments going on at the same time. Also, they have about 4 dressing rooms right next to each other and one area where all 4 brides come out, which means all the groups are seated together. This, I was not a fan of. I wanted a more private experience and when I would come out, I felt like the other brides groups we’re sizing me up. Not quite the idea I had when choosing my wedding dress out but ALL the consultants pay compliment to you or put their input in which is nice. I’d rather have that than a blank stare from a stranger.
Lastly, I came to Mayfair exclusively for a line they carried that I couldn’t find at a lot of other bridal stores in the area. They carry Maggie Sottero which was great but still had a few other brands that were similar in style and from designers all over the world. The selection was fairly large which was great and in larger sizes in samples to try on which means they actually fit me! This was an issues at other places I went to being that wedding dresses do run small and when your trying to fit your pear shaped body in a trumpet or mermaid style dress and the dress has absolutely no stretch, it can be a task in itself.
Overall, If I wouldn’t of fallin’ in love with another dress, I would of bought here based on the 4 – 5 other places I had gone to over the weekend.

I had a great experience in this place, ever since my first appointment I was greeted nicely by Jazmin, she was great with me and my bridesmaids and helped me try MANY dresses of the style I was looking for. I have to say I did go to other bridal stores after this place to try out different ones but I had a feeling I had to come back here again. In my second appointment I fell in love with a new dress from Allure that had JUST come in. They took if off the mannequin for me to try and thats the dress I ended up choosing for my wedding. Everything from placing the order to alterations I was treated cordially, and even the owner answer some of the questions I had when doing my last tryouts for alterations. I do recommend future brides to give this place a visit before going to other places :)

I found my dress here and I have to say I’m so happy I chose to go somewhere off the beaten path. I love my dress and everyone is so friendly and helpful. Velida took her time to really show me every dress I chose to try on. When I finally picked my dress she helped me find the right accessories and made sure I was content. I suggest you definitely schedule an appointment. It’s a small store and space is limited, but definitely worth it.

Going to the chapel and we’re going to get married… well at least my bestie is in this review. Being the maid of honor, I accompanied my best girlfriend, the bride, to this quaint boutique in San Antonio. We made a morning appointment on a Friday which is a must, and took off of work. Having previously shopped for many bridesmaids’ dresses on Saturdays, I highly recommend going during the week to avoid the crowd and craziness in the dressing rooms from all of the other ladies who have also made appointments. It was a little difficult to find the boutique as it is tucked away in a shopping strip behind a gas station. The shopping strip faces the freeway even though the address is for the side street. We just chalked it up to the fact that we are not from San Antonio. Even though the boutique lacks luxurious appeal visually, we were impressed that they had a very moderate to large collection. The shop was very quiet at 10:30am and they took us early even though our appointment wasn’t until 11:00am. The bride brought two pictures to show the shopping assistant who would be working with us and she returned 10 – 15 minutes later with 7 dresses to try on. I recommend bringing in a couple of photos of dresses that you like to provide some guidance to the assistant as it probably expedites the shopping process and narrows down the guessing game. The dressing room area is a medium size with 3 actual changing rooms and a couple of couches to sit on for the bride’s support team. The shopper assistant was very kind and helped my girlfriend get in and out of dresses and clamped the dresses that were too big and added sleeves to the dresses that she wanted to see with sleeves on them. The shopper assistant made the process a breeze and a fun experience for all of us. The dresses were all a great price in my opinion as the most expensive one she tried on was $ 1,500. My friend chose the third dress that she tried on and was even encouraged by the lady to retry it on after she had gone through all 7 just to double check. Once she selected it, the assistant brought her a bell to ring that symbolized that she said yes to the dress which was cute for pictures and video! She also went to find a veil and a few possible earrings that would match and a hair piece accessory. All of the accessories were beautiful, but I was a little surprised at the prices of the accessories. The earrings were $ 80 but I guess once you are spending a hefty amount of money on a dress then that seems like a drop in the bucket. The hair comb was romantic looking with pearls and jewels that my girlfriend plans on wearing at the reception for an accent and wearing the veil at the church only. One customer service feature that sets this boutique a part is that they will store your dress for you and press it twice. So you can come pick up your dress for bridal portraits and then take it back to them and they will store it and press it a second time the week of your wedding before you go to pick it up. I thought this was awesome so you don’t have to worry about stuffing your huge new expensive dress into your closet and risk getting it wrinkled. This bridal boutique is definitely worth checkin out.

This place is so tiny. I made an appointment to check out some bridesmaid dresses. I had to pull all my own dresses, and set up my own dressing room. No one bothered to check on my maid of honor and I. So we just left, without anyone saying one word to us. This was not the experience I was hoping for but thank goodness for Alfred Angelo right down the street, who kindly took us in, without an appointment.

First the pro’s. They have a VERY large selection. There were a lot of dresses and all at a very good price point. Staff was ok. Not overly friendly but willing to help out as needed.
Now the con’s… The large selection is too much for the store. It was impossible for me to look through the dresses. I had to tell the stylist what I wanted and hope that we were on the same page. It is also not intimate at all. Everyone was in the same area so I felt like I had to share my big day of shopping with everyone else in the store. Overall not a bad experience, but not anything to brag about.

After reading so many wonderful reviews for this Bridal Salon, I dropped in to check it out for my daughter and hopefully make an appointment. As promised there were lots of dresses but very crowded. This is a very small space. My issue with this salon was that they totally ignored me. I looked around when I first came in and then found a place near the desk, but after spending about 10 – 15 minutes hovering around the desk area no one approached me. However, someone came in the door after me and was immediately welcomed. There was someone at the desk on the phone and then someone else walked up to the desk, but never said a word to me or even made eye contact. As the mother of the bride (who usually pays for the dress) I would have thought I would have been a welcome guest. This makes me think the reviews given are fictitious at best. The customer service is non-​existent.

We just had the most wonderful experience with this shop. It was recommended to me by a friend but I wasn’t prepared for the service we got. Our consultant, Tabitha, was wonderful. She accessed my daughter’s Pinterest «pins» and had a selection ready when we walked in. As the final selections narrowed, she’d pull dresses that had «a neckline similar to this…» or «a little more sparkle»… etc. She knew her stock and never hesitated to pull another dress that would be «perfect». In the end, my daughter found the dress of her dreams and Tabitha helped to find the absolutely perfect veil. Because my daughter wanted the neckline a little deeper, like another dress that she tried, and she had come in from CA, we were offered the floor sample with rushed alterations. We went back two days later and the dress was perfectly altered.
I just cannot say enough about the consultants, especially Tabitha; the seamstress, who did a fantastic job; the selection; and the very friendly atmosphere. We were encouraged to come in early, before the rush, and it worked out perfectly. We were the only ones there for the first hour. We never felt rushed in any way and had a wonderful experience.
Certainly don’t judge this shop by the cover! It IS in a small strip mall behind a gas station and is stuffed with dresses; but the young women in there know what’s in every bag. I HIGHLY recommend this shop!

Huge selection, 80s couches and real nice consultants — what more could you ask for? However, one star chopped off for some weirdness surrounding this «private collection» business. Google this concept, I’m still in the dark on it. Great people and selection though, highly recommend.

This place really worked with me. I gained so much weight between buying the dress and the fitting time (hey, it only takes about 5 pounds to make that dress not fit!) hat it became necessary to get the dress in another size. They were able to get me another and just charge shipping and restock fee. They did a good job with the alterations and when I told them that I was not pleased with something, they fixed it for me to a satisfactory level. I was probably more difficult than most brides, and they worked very well with me and were always curteous.

Mayfair Bridal is not your typical salon that you see on Say Yes to the Dress. It is a hidden cove of wedding dresses that fill the small space located in the shopping mall located close to the SA Airport. This small space might seem lackluster, but what they lack in space, they make up in product, price and service. Any bridal store you go to on a weekend is going to be swamped, so as a bride, schedule yourself some alone time with Angelica and go during the week. Not only do they allow you the freedom to really look in the shop, but they are patient enough to allow you to have your bridal dreams come true.
I found my perfect dress within the first 4 I tried on, and had it custom made for me with a shorter train, and a corset back instead of zipper. I loved the results! They are still holding my dress that I bought a year ago, which is a nice perk for me, because I know it is in safe keeping. Tomorrow I go back for my first dress fitting, and they offer 2 complimentary dress pressings, and alterations for a total of $ 250. (Not that it has to add up to that… but it is a relief that I will NOT have to pay a cent more than that.) Overall, if you want a dress to make you extra glam, and you want people who honestly care about you looking your best, (And not making commission) I HIGHLY recommend going to Mayfair. I love this shop.
