I am so glad I found this place! I first noticed this boutique while driving by and decided to give it a try after reading all the good reviews on Unilocal.I called a few days in advance and made an appointment for a Friday evening after work. Already, that was totally unlike my experience at other places, where they are booked weeks in advance, or want you to make an appointment in the middle of the day during the week. Other shops I had been to either totally ignored me when I told them I had no bridesmaids, or laughed in my face when I told them how much I wanted to spend. At Jade, this is not the case! I went to the appointment with my mom, and Wini made us both feel comfortable from the first moment we arrived. After telling her about what style I liked and what my budget was(low compared to alot of other brides), she went over to the racks to pull dresses. I was impressed by the different selections in all price ranges. Wini even helped me maneuver in and out of the dresses in the fitting room, and while normally this would be extremely distressing to me, Wini made me feel comfortable the entire time. I felt like I was in there with a friend. If you’re shy, wear full coverage underwear! Wini really made the entire experience great, and I am very pleased to have found my dress at her shop. It was within the budget I outlined, and will be custom made to my measurements. I think it is a great value and am so excited to see the end product! I am happy to be able to support her business and highly recommend stopping in if you are ever in need of bridal or special occasion dresses or accessories. There are even dresses for children, mother of the bride, and more traditional Chinese dresses. I’ll be sure to update later once my dress arrives!

I didn’t end up getting my free here. But Winni is wonderful! She goes above and beyond to create a great experience for you! She truly wants to find or make you the perfect dress! She also really knows what she’s talking about and listens to what you want!

I was having a hard time finding the right dress. I was driving by the area and saw this bridal salon. When I first walked in, it was a very clean pretty simple salon. There was a lot of dresses to pick from. There was bridal dresses and evening gowns. I tried on a lot of different styles and explained what I like. From what I liked Wini was able to pull up other dresses and custom make the dress I loved. She is very nice, patient and pleasant to work with. She also was able to give great recommendations on other wedding things you need. I have a great experience and would recommend anyone to give it a try and if you can not find the right dress of can always be custom design to you.

I couldn’t be any happier with my decision to buy my dress from jade bridal from the owner Winnie. She was amazing and so friendly as soon as we walked in. The place is beautiful and super clean! I picked out three dresses to try on and I knew right away when I put my second dress on. It was the one! Winnie didn’t pressure anything, she was helpful and answered all my questions. I don’t have to worry about spending tons of extra money on alterations because they order the dress to fit exactly your size. I can’t wait to see my dress when it comes in! 4 months can’t come quick enough. I recommend coming here to look for your dress, you won’t be disappointed!

My wedding is this upcoming September 2015, and in an effort to find a perfect dress for me, at first, I did not know where to start… I had a few places in mind to check out. Jade Bridal, is close to home and was pointed out by one of my bridesmaid, so I went ahead and decided to make an appointment. Compared to other larger bridal shops, from the time you walk in to when you leave, you are the priority. Wini is very accommodating, friendly and attentive. She explains the whole dress shopping process and provides suggestions on timelines. Jade Bridal has the the fastest turnaround for a custom dress and for me that was really important, since my wedding is coming up soon. I told her what I was looking for and my budget and she made every effort to try to fit that… What sold me was the«custom fit» option that is provided here. You can actually order a dress with your measurements! Finally, I don’t have to order a standard sized dress and I know my dress will fit to my body shape, because it is being made that way… Although, it might seem like there isn’t an overwhelming amount of choices within the boutique, don’t let that fool you. There is actually a large selection you can view on the computer right after you try on particular styles to view variations of those types of designs. Wini sent me a large selection of dresses for me to look at. Once I selected a few styles, I came in to try on similiar styles. As Wini mentioned, sometimes, the dress might be something you like«on paper» but can look different on your body, once you try it on. So, after trying a different style, I totally changed my mind on what type of dress I wanted. Once I selected a new style, I was excited to receive a detailed selection with all the variations in the style I chose. I chose my dress and placed my order. Not only did I have access to a large selection, I also have a place where my bridesmaids have a large selection to choose their dress from. Plus, I have access to obtain all my accessories(veil, shoes, tiara). Wini uses technology to send personalized e-mails with all the various styles to choose from, so you don’t have to keep going in person to ask about other things. I highly recommend this as the bridal boutique go-to place. I felt very comfortable in asking questions and felt that I could take my time without being rushed to make decisions. You are going to receive awesome service, a large selection, friendly atmosphere, custom options, all within your budget! Thanks Wini!

Minnie made this experience worry free. Let me just begin by saying I made an appointment for my sister within a week. Walked in and the boutique is cute! Roomy sofas, great tall mirrors, pedestal, and perfect shoes and accessories for the dress. Although there isn’t a large selection of dresses Winnie is very accommodating. This place has been opened for 3 months so I see potential for the place.

In the last 15 years or so I’ve been to dozens of bridal boutiques, no lie. I’ve never had such a positive experience as at Jade Bridal. Sure, some places are larger and more opulent, but this place is chic, modern and comfortable. I’ve been to plenty of places that act like they’re doing you a favor by showing you their dresses. Not here. The owner Wini(pronounced Winnie) treated us like VIPs from the moment we walked in until the moment we walked out, and she has an uncanny ability to match your personality to the right dress. She knows how to listen too. She never, even for one second, pressured us to buy anything, or to impose a style on us that we didn’t like. If you try on any of the display dresses, Wini will happily take pictures of you in every dress and email them to you by the time you get home. She’s a pretty good photographer. The collection is small, but Wini can custom make anything for you. If you like the top of one dress and the skirt of another, she’ll make it for you. She will sit patiently with you in her office while you peruse hundreds of photos, in order to figure out what you like. We got reverse sticker shock from the display dresses, and even the prices we were quoted for custom made dresses were shockingly low. Every dress we tried on was well made, and there is a nice variety of styles, materials and price ranges. They are made to measure and you will not find a single flaw among any of them. Wini seems to run a one-woman shop. She doesn’t look old enough to drive, and I think she is a size –2. :-) But she is the furthest thing from a typical fashion snob. She is far and away the friendliest bridal boutique owner I’ve ever met. I almost rated the boutique 4 stars only because the bathroom and changing rooms don’t quite compare to some of the other bridal boutiques in the city. You won’t find fancy marble vanities here, but I still think I’d much rather come here than anywhere else I’ve been in the city, simply because of the superior service. I would recommend this boutique to my family and friends without the slightest hesitation.

Wini Wu was so wonderful and patient!!! If you need a dress this is the place to go, she really works with your budget and your vision of a dress. Jades Bridal is classy and an elegant place to shop. I absolutely loved the experience!!! She is very supportive and very professional. She even let me come in at a ridiculously early time on Sunday for a dress fitting!!! Wini Wu has a beautiful assortment of dresses and they can be in within 4 – 6 weeks and they can practically be made custom without paying the custom price! This place is the best! Thank you so much Wini!

I had a great experience at Jade Bridal. It was easy to make an appointment, the selection was exactly what I was looking for and the owner(Winnie) was helpful every step of the way. I love that I was able to order my dress for my measurements and don’t have to order a size off the rack only to pay $ 500 in alternations to have it made it for me. I will have my custom dress in 6 weeks. I highly recommend Jade Bridal.
