Dantelas was fantastic to work with for my wedding dress! Their selection is beautiful and fit my classic style. The showroom is clean and intimate, and they are very helpful and patient to find the dress that suits you. Pickup process went smoothly, as they called to set up an appointment.Important to note to come in about 6 months before your wedding to choose your dress to avoid timing stress! The dresses are custom made overseas and take a few months to arrive. You will want to pickup your dress with time for alterations.

One of the best wedding dress shops I’ve been to while dress hunting.These women made me feel so comfortable and truly listen to what I wanted, and they strived for the best. They did not make me feel guilty or try to brush off what I wanted. They listened and they helped me find my perfect dress!Their shop has tons of beautiful styles and brands of dresses. They are both knowledgeable about the dresses, the types of laces, etc. so they know exactly what they are talking about.I said yes to the dress from here a couple months back and wouldn’t have it any other way.THEY ARE THE BEST!!!!!

My wedding dress shopping experience was beyond what I imagined at Daniela! Lumi did an amazing job in finding what I was looking for. After analyzing which types of fabrics and styles I liked, we chose 5 to try on. I found my dress on the third try! I recommend Dantela for their patience, kindness, and expertise. I would give 100 stars if I could.

I had a wonderful experience at Dantela and am happy to say I found the one! It was the first shop I went to and am so happy I did! I didn’t realize it until after but they opened the store up early for me to fit in my appointment and both sisters were so attentive to finding what I really liked. I knew to go in with an open mind about different styles but still thought it was crazy to walk away with a dress style I thought I would never get as Lumi seemed to figure out my style before I did myself! I highly recommend this store for the wonderful customer service and the quality and beautiful selections it has to offer.

I absolutely recommend this place future brides! The service was amazing, the sisters are very attentive and understanding. They got it right on the first dress! I did try on other dresses but the first one “WOWED” me the most and I was able to say yes to the dress! Though it was over my budget it’s so worth it. I loved everything about Dantela Bridal!

I found my dress after trying on two dresses! I was so nervous and unexpectedly surprised by my options, that I ended up finding the perfect dress! I loved the lady that helped me throughout the process. She was more concerned about me, not selling me something. I felt really comfortable and enjoyed every minute of it! Thank you!

I cannot say enough about this place!! The sister owners of this store are absolutely amazing- we went to four stores before this that I narrowed down from a list of 30 and they were all garbage compared to this place! First of all, they have the best selection of European dresses that flatter the female figure properly and are made with quality, plus fair prices. Secondly their customer service is just mind blowing- they felt like my aunties showing me what they liked and stayed extra AND opened the store just for us on their day off because my mom flew in from out of town- I cannot say enough of how amazing these ladies are- wish I could invite them to our wedding, would totally come over just for tea, can’t wait to wear my dress (which I got off the rack). Honestly, going anywhere else during your shopping experience would be a total waste of your time- trust me- get your dress here!!! And mom’s, get your dresses for the wedding here too! 😍💗🌷

YOU MUST GO TO DANTELA BRIDAL COUTURE! 💍🤍👰🏼I cannot thank owners/sisters Lumi & Anca enough for making the process of finding my DREAM dress so fun & easy!I fully expected to leave my appointment with an idea of a silhouette that I liked & would shop around at other bridal stores. Boy, was I wrong!From the moment you walk into the boutique you feel like family. Lumi & Anca greet you and treat you with so much love and excitement! They are not pushy with sales AT ALL! They stick to your budget 100%. They pulled 5 dresses and I didn’t even get through all of them before I found THE ONE! These experts know what they are doing; they are so talented at looking at a bride and finding what compliments her the most.I cannot thank you both, Lumi & Anca, for making this part of my wedding planning something I will hold near & dear to my heart forever. You both are so sweet & amazing at what you do.The store is clean, organized, holds so many gorgeous gowns, and even has a “rack” section; this is where I found my gown! They have beautiful jewelry and hair accessories as well. Even the garment bag was thought out! It says, “He asked” on the front and “She said yes” in the back… HOW CUTE!!!I would give a million stars if I could! Please go to Dantela Bridal Couture; you won’t regret it! 🤍

I had an amazing experience going wedding dress shopping! I knew I loved the Pronovias brand, and they were one of the few stores in Chicago who carried it. While I came in, fully not expecting to buy a gown that day, they helped me find my dream dress and I purchased it that day! Not only that, I felt no pressure from them to buy; it was simply the right dress. They helped me style it and picked out the PERFECT veil as well. The selection of dresses is beautiful and they also aim to stick to your budget, which is always appreciated! 10/10 recommend!

I had the most special experience with Lumi and her sister- they make you feel like family.They ordered my dream dress after we tried on 7-8 more options and I had come from 4 other stores of searching.Most importantly, two things:1. They have seamstresses they stand behind and love, which can absolutely make or break the end product!2. Their sample sizes are for NORMAL BODIES- having come from places with dress sizes/dress lines that couldn’t even get on my size 10 self, it was a relief to actually have dresses to try. What is happening in the bridal industry with sizing?!Cannot wait for my dress for arrive in august. Make an appointment here (+ their covid precautions are stellar!)

My fiancé and I were running errands for our upcoming wedding. I heard of this boutique before and decided to stop in to look for hair accessories. When we arrived a women came to the door with an unpleasant greeting. She expressed that we couldn’t enter or look at the accessories because she was with another client. I expressed that I didn’t need assistance viewing the accessories, but she still did not allow us to enter. Very disappointed.

Dantela bridal is the absolute best!! After visiting several shops in Chicago and still not finding the perfect dress, I decided to check out Dantelas after finding them online. As soon as I started looking at their Instagram photos, I knew I had to go! They have the most UNIQUE gowns at a fair price point. They were so helpful in helping find dresses that fit my style. They knew exactly what dresses to pull to have me try on. I ended up saying yes to the dress at Dantelas! I CANT WAIT to wear my gown, and am so glad that I was able to work with them! They really are EXPERTS at finding your dream dress in a low stress environment. I never once felt pressured to buy the dress or rushed to make a selection. Highly recommend checking them out!

I got my custom dress at Dantela and the designer was Tina Valerdi. Her work is absolutely amazing and we were able to create my vision based off one of her collections. Dantela was so supportive and helped me create the most stunning dress I could ever wear. Everyone commented how beautiful it was and we were even being photographed throughout Miami from strangers on the street. I never wanted to take it off and hope one day I may wear it again to celebrate our marriage and our wedding day :)

Hello. I was a stressed out bride in search of a dress but not local to Chicago. This store (Anca) took pictures, placed the gown on a mannequin and provided details for my dress in a size closer to what I needed and said they would be willing to ship it to my home so I would not have to make a 7 hour plus drive. I felt this was very kind as they went out of my way to help me. I ended up finding a smaller dress even closer to my size at the flagship designer store in NYC but I feel compelled to write this review to let brides know that I felt even in this virtual world they were very willing to help me. Good luck finding your dream dress.

We didnt find the dress as we wanted because they didnt have the size. Nonetheless, the ladies that tended to us were very nice. It is a good place to get a bridal dress.

Dantela is definitely worth a visit! Anca and Lumi were exceptional. This was the first place I visited for dresses and I thought I was going in just to browse, but Anca and Lumi found the perfect dress for me! It was love at first sight and I had no problem committing to it! They were patient, non-judgmental, and respectful of my budget. At some point in the search, I felt like the image of the dress in my head was blurred and I could not explain exactly what I wanted. I felt defeated. Anca and Lumi, however, learned my style quickly and pulled out an amazing dress that blew me away before it was even buttoned. Trust their process! They know what theyre doing! Thank you so much, Lumi and Anca!

This store is incredible! Lumi knew exactly what I was looking for based on a few minutes of conversation and pulled the dresses for me. I found that to be nicer than having to pick them out on my own. I ended up getting my dress here, and the owners went above and beyond to help me envision my gown in a different color than the sample. They were so friendly and honest, without pressuring me at all. And so fun to work with! I highly recommend.

Area Varga and Lumi Partalis were an absolute pleasure to have as our bridal dress consultants. My thoughts were to just go in and look. Before I realized it, I found the perfect dress and it was the first one that I tried on after trying seven other dresses. 😊 This is an amazing and exciting time for me and I am looking forward to working with there ladies. Definitely recommend them !!!

If i could give more stars, I would. I did not expect to find a wedding dress so soon as my wedding isnt until Oct 2020. The owners were beyond welcoming and accommodating. I love that I never felt the pressure of them trying to make a sale. They are very knowledgeable of their dresses and were able to find me a dress I wouldve never thought to try on, but so happy I did as it turned out to be THE one. After saying yes to my dream dress, they provided us with champagne to toast to the occasion. They were nice enough to make my goddaughter feel included by providing her with her own water filled flute. So happy I stumbled upon this salon, I will continue to recommend them to friends and family.

Although I didnt get my dress here, the experience was phenomenal. Both owners, sisters, were a delight to work with. My sister in law is Romanian, so they immediately embraced her like family when we arrived. The Pronovias selection is amazing, and both of them made me feel like a model. If it wasnt for another boutique where I had my eye on the dress I ended up with, Im sure I would have found my dress here. I highly recommend coming here and wish the owners the best of luck!

Highly recommend! Owner finds happiness in helping all brides find the one instead of focusing on making a sale. Listened to preferences, price ranges, and found great options! No pressure to buy, only to make sure its the perfect dress. Owners had champagne, snacks, and were so much fun to try dresses on with. Also took pictures of me and my guests toasting after finding the perfect dress.

The ladies at Dantela are really great to work with! I came in on a Saturday afternoon without an appointment and they stayed after closing hours to help me find a dress! I didnt find the one here, but they have a gorgeous selection of dresses and the ladies are interested in you being happy than pushing you into a dress to make a sale.

I found a dress online that I fell absolutely in love with. This is one of 5 stores around the country that carries Tina Valerdi so we decided to make a trip down to Illinois from Wisconsin to try on her dresses. The specific dress I wanted is from the new 2019 collection so it isn’t in stores yet. Today was supposed to just be a “try on” dresses day since I had an appointment set up with my friends and family next week in Wisconsin. I absolutely fell in love with EVERY SINGLE DRESS I tried on today. I tried on a similar dress to the one I wanted and that’s when I knew I had found the one. The owners were AMAZING and so much fun. One of the best experiences ever and I felt so comfortable. They ended up ordering the dress I wanted and custom making it to my likings. I couldn’t have imagined this appointment going any better and I’m so glad I made the decision to make the trip.Oh and my mom ended up getting her dress here as well and got such a great deal on it.

I had an absolutely wonderful experience at Dantela. I was visiting from NJ and was hoping to buy a dress in one visit. We had appointments in three bridal shops. After these visits I was sure that I will need to fly to Chicago again in search for a dress. Our last appointment was at Dantela. Two sisters spent four hours with us with great consideration for my daughter’s picky taste, my preferences and budget. They made this experience all about us, very special and happy. I have never seen such service! Their patience and dedication to make the bride happy it incredible! What a wonderful beginning of this special event. I highly recommend them. Save yourself time and money and go directly to this store.Thank you, Lumi and Anka for an unforgettable experience!!!

I had a wonderful experience here and I was primarily helped by Lumi. This is a lovely family business and I was very happy to shop here. I bought my dress and veil here. Their dress selection is gorgeous along with the shop itself. Lumi made me feel special and cared for. I felt like one of the girls on Say Yes to the Dress. They were so respectful of my modest budget as well. Good people!

Just amazing, I couldnt have asked for a better experience in finding a wedding dress. I thought I had found, the one then suddenly the day after I put my downpayment realized this wasnt it. I came back in and they helped me bring my vision to life. They contacted the designer and next thing I knew my dream dress was on its way to me in a month. I went back to try it on and jumped up and down in excitement. I cannot wait to come back in September for my first fitting. Thank you Dantela Bridal Couture, youre the best!

You will have a fantastic experience at Dantela Bridal and it deserves a 10/10! I was primarily helped by Lumi, and she gave excellent feedback, was respectful and appropriate, and you could tell she had a lot of experience in this business. Anka, Lumis sister, was also very helpful and just as lovely throughout the process. I spent almost two hours there and the entire time they attended to me lovingly. The dresses they carry are gorgeous and have a variety of price ranges. I found my dream wedding dress thanks to this beautiful shop and the wonderful sisters that run it. Thank you Lumi and Anka!!! I cant wait for my special day!
