I can't say enough good things about the place I got my dress: Bella Mia Bride in San Jose. I went to 5 other places (which I will not name...) before going to Bella Mia and I wish I hadn't wasted my time with the others. Jennifer was my consultant and she's AMAZING. The shop itself is pretty quiet and there aren't a ton of people so it made it a really relaxing, laid back experience- which I didn't get anywhere else. I know it's a total plug, but I loved them that much
