A Little Something White Bridal Couture

It was my first time trying on dresses and Kim was extremely kind by walking me through the steps, helping to select dresses based on my vision and likes. Kim wanted to make sure she was selecting the correct dresses so she asked that I keep communicating to her what I liked/​disliked about each dress I tried on. The process of elimination was so easy! We picked a dress that became the foundation and then as I tried on more dresses, we compared it to the first dress and would decide if we liked it more or less.
I loved the personal attention and enthusiasm Kim had for me, as well as my mom, sister, and cousin.

ALSW was such a great team! I fell in love with the fourth dress I tried on for my wedding, was encouraged that I go with my gut and I couldn’t have been happier with the results. They dealt directly with the designer and helped me make decisions every step of the way. Same exact support for my bridesmaids dresses as well. Thumbs up for this wonderful business.

I absolutely LOVED my experience at A Little Something White. From start to finish, Ashley and her team were attentive, helpful, and most of all, so much fun to work with! I visited a few bridal boutiques before making a final decision on my gown, and there is no place in the NY-​metro area like ALSW. The boutique itself is beautifully decorated. More importantly, on each and every visit, I was warmly welcomed into the store and felt like I was a friend rather than a customer. Amber assisted me with my gown purchase and selected gorgeous accessories that perfectly complimented my gown. Bridget was the amazing alterations expert who worked to make the dress absolutely stunning. The entire team is lovely, and they work hard to make dress shopping & alterations such a fun and easy process. I can confidently say that the dress experience at ALSW was the highlight of wedding planning. Thank you to Ashley, Amber, Bridget, and the entire ALSW team!

I visited A Little Something White last weekend to shop for my wedding gown. I cannot speak more highly of this boutique. There is a great assortment of ball gown, mermaid, a-​line, sheath, tulle, organza, lace (and I’m sure I’m missing some!). It is not overwhelming like a few other boutiques I had visited. The natural light in the shop is a huge benefit as well!
I tried on a great assortment of my picks and Amber’s picks. She really listened to what I liked and didn’t like. She explained the structure of the dresses and knew what kind of alterations could be done. She definitely knew her gowns!
Other than the assortment being fantastic the staff is incredibly friendly and warm. Ashley, the owner, was chatting with myself and family as we were trying on and we had an absolute blast. It’s supposed to be a fun and joyful experience and A Little Something White certainly made me feel so special.
The town of Darien is adorable with so many great restaurants and a cute downtown area. I live in Manhattan and it was so nice to get out of the city and have a“girls day” grabbing brunch and dress shopping.
I highly recommend A Little Something White!!!

I don’t have enough good things to say about A Little Something White! I came across this store by chance — and which I had known about it since the beginning of my wedding dress search! Liz was my bridal consultant and was AMAZING! The store has the cuteness factor — and the experience to back it up! LOVE LOVE LOVE!

Honestly, one of the best bridal boutiques I have been to! I was there specifically looking for veils, but got so much more. Being from out of town and having already bought my dress, Liz was completely accommodating to my needs. Prior to my appointment I let the girls know the designer and style of my dress. They had one very similar all ready for me to put on so that I may have the full effect while trying on veils. I could not have been more pleased with Liz and how amazing this place is! My MOH and I even got to look at bridesmaids dresses after having a not so pleasant experience at a previous boutique. I would highly recommend A Little Something White to all my friends!

Ashley is fabulous! She immediately made me feel at ease, was respectful of my budget, and the selection of dresses was fabulous! Overall a positive experience. I found a dress I loved and put it on hold so that I could bring my mother and future mother-​in-​law back for the experience of helping me make the final decision and to see me accessorized with a sash and veil! Thank you ALSW :-)

For an experience I was dreading, it was really fun! Champagne is offered as soon as you walk in and the women that work here are very down to earth and friendly. They made us relax right away and we felt very comfortable. Of course with their expert help we found a dress in less than one hour! Would highly recommend!

The genuinely most wonderful experience I have ever had shopping. Ashley is a consummate professional who brings warmth and happiness to 2^nd most important day in a brides life. The space is open but private and her suggestions were spot on! I don’t have enough accolades to really give a little something white justice. Having been in retail for more years than I care to remember, I can’t remember when I was so impressed with someone or someplace. Kudos on a job well done

I came to A Little Something White today to help my best friend find her wedding gown along with her mom and sister. The owner, Ashley, helped us find the perfect dress for our beautiful bride by being friendly, helpful, informative, and sensitive to her needs. Wedding dress shopping can be a stressful experience and Ashley made it fun and enjoyable! I cannot wait to return in future months for more fittings and recommend this shop to future brides-​to-​be!

I honestly have nothing but good things to say about A Little Something White or the owner, Ashley. Firstly, I loved, my dress more than I can possibly say. It was PERFECT for me. I went into my appointment saying that I wanted a certain kind of dress and while Amber totally listened to me and pulled a bunch that fit what I asked for, she also asked me a favor: «Will you just try this one on for me? I think it would look great.» At first I was kind of thrown, but I tried it on so as not to be rude. First dress I tried on and it was the one I bought. They just know what they’re doing. Also, and this is really to their credit, there was a misunderstanding in something I said I wanted, which came in totally different than what I was expecting. While it was frustrating at the time, I was SO impressed with how well ALSW handled it. They got it fixed and made sure I was happy and treated me with the utmost respect. They really made me feel that not only the dress, but the experience, was tailored to me. They also got my dress shipped out to me in Los Angeles and even were able to recommend a great seamstress to me for alterations, all the way across the country. I could not be happier with the experience. Oh, and yes, like other people say, Ashley is the absolute sweetest.

I cannot say enough good things about this bridal salon or the owner Ashley who is the sweetest most wonderful women I have ever encountered during my wedding planning journey. Her store is impeccable and all her staff have the mannerism and professionalism that make you feel like you’re home from the second you step foot inside. I ordered all my girls bridesmaid dresses from here and then Ashley helped me out TREMENDOUSLY when it came to an emergency I encountered elsewhere with my wedding dress. She took the time out of her personal life, off business hours to help me and relieved me of stress and anxiety. I wish I could get married 100 more times (to the same person of course haha) just to get to experience all the wonderful things Ashley and A Little Something White Bridal Couture has to offer :) They all really care about their brides and it’s so comforting! Thank you thank you immensely Ashley and staff!

Can’t say enough about A Little Something White. First of all, the owner, Ashley, and her team make it their mission to ensure every bride has the most happy, warm experience in their salon. From the impeccable décor, to the exquisite bridal gown/​bridesmaids collections, and then the amazing service you get, this really is the cream of the crop when it comes to salons. From the second I walked in and met Ashley and her team, I knew I had found the place for me. I’ve never met such warm, inviting people. Some bridal salons can be really rude, Ashley prides herself on being the warm, awesome person that she is. I ordered the most perfect Sareh Nouri gown, multiple pieces of jewelry from the Something Old Collection, and Alvina Valenta bridesmaids dresses. I am STILL (one month after my wedding) receiving comments about how stunning the gown was! Bridget (the seamtress) is also the best in the business. My gown fit PERFECT!!! I absolutely love this store, this team, and will forever recommend them to anyone and everyone. They made my wedding dreams come true! Thanks ALSW!!!

Ashley and Amber were terrific and could not have been more helpful or accommodating. My daughter visited this store first and ultimately bought her wedding dress there. The experience of trying on the dresses was unpressured and they were very respectful of the price range within which we were working. The dress had to be shipped elsewhere for fitting and then brought back to Connecticut and they were very helpful every step of the way. They are very service-​oriented and truly care about making their customers happy.

This salon is the best hands down. I had shopped at A Little Something White, but decided to order my dress elsewhere. Three weeks before my wedding, my dress had STILL not come in. The salon I ended up ordering through was giving me such a hard time and basically telling me they had no idea when my dress would be coming in, and they legally didn’t have to give me the dress until the date of my wedding. Now in a panic, my mother and I decided that we would go find a new dress, and just sell the original one once it came in (if ever at all). Distraught and discouraged, I went back to A Little Something White to see if they could do anything for me, since they had been so nice when I was shopping months earlier.
ALL of the women there were absolute angels. Kim, my consultant, and Amber, the consultant who originally helped me, assured me that I would not only have a dress for my wedding, but it would be perfect. Kim put me in every sample dress that would fit me, and even some dresses that were store samples that were not for sale. They said if there was anything that I liked they would sell it to me, since we were pretty limited on what I can order in such a short amount of time. I ended up finding the most beautiful gown that fit me perfectly, and they were able to make minor alterations in a few short weeks. 2 weeks later I was able to pick up my dress and go get married in a dress that was perfect.
The employees at ALSW did not have to do what they did, but it means the world to me that they were so sweet and helpful, during an extremely stressful time. Ashley, Amber and Kim were absolutely incredible, and Bridget my seamstress was a miracle worker to do the alterations on such a time timeline. I have (and will continue to) recommended them to any bride getting married especially if you want grade-​A service. It is really true that you get what you pay for, and my dress and the feeling I had wearing it that day were priceless. And so are the women at A Little Something White.

Very happy with my whole dress shopping experience here! Knowledgeable, accommodating, and above all — nice. Never felt rushed and they have a great, clean space with lots of light. They obviously know what they are doing because it was my first time dress shopping and I ultimately ended up choosing the first dress I tried on! When my family came just for a viewing they all said the same thing I did. Amber and Ashley always tried to make us as comfortable as possible and really care about what they are giving their brides. I would highly recommend this place!

ALSW is a beautiful shop! At first I was a little nervous about trying them because they were a relatively new business. But any fear was immediately removed once I saw the quality and service they offer. Their selection of dresses is well edited and unique. I had been to other bigger stores in NYC and found the experiences so impersonal and overwhelming. I didn’t feel this way at all at ALSW. I ended up purchasing my dream dress from them! They have lots of trunk shows and a beautiful selection of veils and jewelry. Each of their team members is passionate about helping you find your right dress. The owner, Ashley had such a personal touch and reached out more than once to keep me informed on the process and check in on alterations. They have a gifted in house alterations person who did an impressive alterations job on my dress. From start to finish working with ALSW was easy and fun!

LOVED A Little White Something. Everyone there was super helpful and very personable. From the minute you step into the store to the time you leave their full attention is on you. They gave you their honest opinion while still respecting your style and thoughts about each dress. If you want a great experience and to feel special– this is the place!

Can’t say enough good things about A Little Something White! I had the best experience finding my dress, the whole staff is great! I had a pretty tight budget but was still able to find a dress I loved. Sadly I had to cancel my wedding and call off my engagement. Ashley the owner was so compassionate and did everything she could to make the process as easy for me as possible. Thank you so much Ashley and A Little Something White!

After trying a trunk show sample of one of Liancarlo’s dresses in Chicago. I hunted down a shop in the NYC area so that I could try it on again and purchase, so that I wouldn’t have to go back to Chicago for alterations each time. (I live in NYC). I searched and found that this designer’s work was sold at A Little Something White in Darien, CT, and that the trunk show was there!
I called on a Friday and they were able to take me in Saturday morning! I found it and bought it. The place was so adorable, clean, spacious and modern — unlike my experiences in NYC. Ashley and Amber was so warm and patient with me, as I tried to make my mind between two styles.
Each time I had to come up for my three fittings, they would pick me up and drop me off at the Darien, CT train station. It was so wonderful to go there and escape NYC. I’ll actually miss my trips up!
Also, their seamstress, Bridget, was awesome and knew how to bustle and handle my dress. It was the perfect fit. Lastly, they even shipped my dress (insured) to Chicago, and it arrived safe and sound. The dress was wrapped perfectly and done in a way that I actually didn’t even need to get it steamed again (it was a tulle dress, so that helped).
I would highly recommend A Little Something White for your dress of your dreams! I always loved looking at the different styles even after I picked mine out, too!
