Like the 2 bries that posted just before me, I dont understand the negitive remarks some girls have said about La Sposa. I was married in late fall 2007 and just recently remembered to come and post my experience on here. I delt mostly with the owner of La Sposa, Margherita who honestly is about the sweetest, most honest woman out there, and I could tell right away that she was totaly commmited to her shop, and ""her brides"" as she calls them. She puts her all into making sure she takes care of anyone who is in the store. When I was looking for my dress I wasnt worried about who made the dress, I just was trying to find a certian look, and when I did, La Sposa was more then happy to rush order the dress for me since I kind of dragged my feet and only had around 4 months till my wedding date! (eek!) The dress came in with tons of time to spare, and by adding a fuller pettycoat (which I wanted anyhow), I didnt even need the length done on my gown! The price was the best I could find (I called around after ordering and hearing from a friend that the shop she used in NH for her dress jacked up the price) and I was shocked to find that every other store in all of MA and NH was quoting me $300-$500 more then what I paid INCLUDING my rush charge! I also got my bridesmaids dresses there and my flower girls', and they all looked fabulous! Last May my friend got married in VT and I had La Sposa order my gown for her wedding, it was perfect and while other girls had alteration issues from the shop they used, my dress had none! The price for alteration was very fair as well! The service I got and the warmth and connection I felt while at La Sposa was amazing. This is a small boutique shop, not a chain store like Davids Bridal, so its much more personal of an experience, I loved it. Now my husband and I are expecting our first baby in Feb and La Sposa is handling the ordering of my baby's Baptism gown. I will continue to go to La Sposa and Margherita for any future events!
Pros: good selection, quality items, FABULOUS service, awesome knowledgable staff, free parking, easy to get to
