Arzelle's

GREAT! GREAT! place to find your dress! awesome selection and great prices. very helpful staff and very prompt at calling you back!

Arzelle's was the first place I went to look for my dress, and I found "the one" immediately! The staff was very tuned in to what I wanted in a wedding dress. They were helpful and easy to work with. We also purchased all of my accessories, veil, and the bridesmaids' dresses from Arzelle's. The lady who does their alterations is amazing and very reasonably priced. We had an amazing experience with them.

Arzell’s is awesome! Walking into their shop was a breath of fresh air after being hassled, hounded, and otherwise irritated with so many of the dress shops in Northern Virginia. I actually completely wrote off dress shopping in VA because it was so frustrating. So, when I was home, in Nashville, for Christmas I made an appointment with Arzelle’s because they carry the Watter’s and WTOO collection which I fell in love with. Within seconds of being in the store I found many gorgeous and very reasonably priced dresses. I purchased my dress from them and had them ship it to my home in Northern Virginia. If you have any questions they are always there to help and the consultants are so sweet.

We ordered the tuxedos and bridesmaids' gowns from Arzelle's. They did everything right. They were careful, thorough, professional and the service was excellent. Unfortunately, we did NOT buy the bridal gown there. We should have. The bridal gown was the only negative in the entire event and if we had used Arzelle's, we believe it would have been perfect. After a couple of problems with the wedding dress at one of "THE" top Nashville wedding boutiques, we went to Arzelle's at the last minute to see if we could find an alternate gown for our daughter. They treated her like a goddess, were dismayed at her other experience but took the high road and helped her without bad mouthing the competition. What a great place!

Arzelle's was AMAZING beyond belief! We got our bridesmaids' dresses and groomsmens' tuxes from Arzelle's, and I truly wish I had purchased my wedding gown from Arzelle's as well! They were so flexible, welcoming, and friendly. When some of the groomsmens' tuxes did not fit correctly on the day before the wedding, they made sure they were perfect for the guys. The bridesmaids' dresses were gorgeous, and all of the ladies were so happy with them. They helped me match the bridesmaids' dresses to the groomsmens' ties, and were so helpful! Most notably, when I had a near-catastrophe with my wedding dress purchased from another Nashville store, they came to the rescue. Although I bought my bridal gown one year in advance, two weeks prior to the wedding I had a huge problem with the dress and was very concerned it would not be fixed in time for the wedding. My mom and I walked into Arzelle's without an appointment at 4:45pm, explained the problem to them, and they pulled out every single dress in the store that was near my size. They helped me try on each dress, and we talked baout how we could alter each one bought off the rack in time for the wedding two weeks away. They were understanding, helpful, compassionate, and encouraging. I found two dresses that I loved, that could be altered and ready to go in two weeks!! In the end, my original dress came through and I did not have to buy a dress off the rack from Arzelle's, but they took me from panic mode to reassured that I would have a beautiful wedding gown to wear on my wedding day. I think they are the very clearly the best in town, and I recommend them without hesitation. As I said before, I wish I had purchased my wedding gown from Arzelle's. They are WONDERFUL!

Far and above, the best wedding dress store in Nashville. Excellent selection and very attentive staff.

Arzelle's was gracious and professional, even though we only had 2 hours and one trip (we live out of town) to find the perfect dress. Loved it! And looked fabulous on my wedding day.

I was a little nervous going in at first, because I thought the place was expensive and would be snoody. I'm so glad I went. I felt so at ease after a girl there helped me and was really friendly. I love my dress and I was so excited to wear it on my big day. Please stop by.

Arzelle's is easy to find, has great parking around back and is full of AMAZING gowns! The ladies that work here are all very sweet and helpful.

I got my wedding dress, veil, the groom & groomsmen tux's and my mother and mother-in-laws dress'. The staff was so kind, helpful and the lady who helped me (Jen) was availablefor any questions I had from the first time I went in to look at the dress ( frazalled and in my scrubs on the way to work) until two days befor ehe weddig when she had my dress and veil waiting in perfect pressed condition! I would recommend every bride o go to this store for all their bridal needs, my ony regret is that I did not get my bridesmaids dresses there.

The ladies at Arzelles were great to work with. From choosing my dress and bridesmaid's dresses to alterations, they made the whole process go very smoothly.

I loved my experience with Arzelles. Jen, the person who helped me find the dress, was incredibly helpful throughout the entire experience and made me that much more excited for my wedding day. I would definitely recommend Arzelles! I wish I could do it all over again!

I had the best time searching and finding my gown here at Arzelle's. Not only is the owner the nicest person, but the quality and selection here is top notch. The store is GORGEOUS and you feel special like you're the only one they are serving. I loved my time working with Arzelle's. I came here after a very disappointing time with another local bridal store (BR) where I felt really awful when I left - and at Arzelle's I felt like a total princess from the customer service and the wonderful care I recieved. I love them all!

If you're the type of bride that refuses to set foot in a David's Bridal (they're horrible in my opinion - who wants to purchase a crappy dress from a chain that also sells prom dresses?) then Arzelle's is the right store for you.There are a lot of other reviews on Arzelle's as it is somewhat of a Nashville institution. The reason for all the reviews is that it's a top quality bridal shop and you won't get as high a level of service elsewhere (especially DB). Also, please keep in mind that although Arzelle's is slightly higher-end they will work with all budgets no matter how large or small. It's Nashville's small version of a Kleinfield's.I had a decent amount to spend on my dress, but I was not top end by any means. The owner of the shop is the sweetest person. She was so patient with me and was gracious even though I tried on over a dozen dresses (a few I tried on just because I remembered them from 27 Dresses and wanted to see what I looked like in them). When I found THE dress for me the owner commented on the ribbon at the waist. She said she knew of something that worked better and added it to the order without any additional charges. Sure enough, when my dress came in I had the upgraded ribbon without any worries.She also found veils that matched my dress perfectly. I didn't exactly know if I wanted a veil or not at the time so I appreciated her showing me a few different things. I ended up going with a headpiece instead of a veil, but very much appreciated her efforts.The alterations person that works on site is also a very special person. She did a great job fitting my dress and was also very gracious when I had her take a bunch of extra pictures of me at each fitting.These ladies know and understand that your wedding is your one big moment to shine and be girly. It's wonderful that they get this and are so accomodating.Finally, I received a discount on my dress because I purchased it in December for a June wedding. Apparently the busy season for the wedding dress industry is January/February/March, so if you purchase before that time you may also receive a nice discount!

Jen was a lifesaver! I've already recommended Arzelle's to several friends who are engaged or are considering marriage. The service made the four hour drive totally worth it.

They were so excited and helpful to help with my special day.They were very good about working around.I felt like they would haven done anything to make my day perfect.

I struggled to find a dress. I had been to every shop in Nashville (some more than once) and had probably tried on over 100 dresses. I kid you not. I had avoided Arzelle's as I thought it was going to be too pricey for me. I called, made a later afternoon appointment and told the woman to pull every dress she had under $1000. None of them worked. The saleswoman suggested that I try on dress types I had been avoiding (mermaid, ruched, drop-waist, halter, etc) and to NOT look at the price tag. She said that even if I tried something on I couldn't afford, that maybe I might find the style I needed. I took her advice. I found the dress: drop waist and ruched with straps and not one bit of lace or beading (another aspect I was addicted to). I held my breath as she pulled the price tag out of my armpit - $1350. I felt that an additional $350 over budget it was totally worth the dress of my dreams. One note of the dress. It was a Mikaella. It came with a standard bustle. It was a loop with a button. I completely ripped the bustle out before the end of the night. I was OK as I had finished dancing and put the train loop around my wrist when I walked. This made me feel a bit princess-like, so it was fine. I suggest adding a back-up bustle to factory made bustles. My 2 cents. Love Arzelle's!

We rented all of the tuxedos from Arzelle's. They were very helpful in the process of choosing the tuxedo, but they are a little on the pricey side. A couple of the tuxes came in and did not fit, but Arzelle's remedied that quickly.

Great service. Reasonable alteration fee.

I felt the most impressed by the alterations person who gave me the best service.
