The most amazing start to my daughter's wedding planning!! – My daughter and I and her soon to be mother-in-law and sisters-in-law decided to START the search for wedding dresses. (It was our first day looking; we were ONLY going to look!!!) We had an appointment at a bridal salon around the corner where we had so-so results and a so-so salesperson. We were supposed to go to the western suburbs for another appointment but decided to try Ultimate when one of her future sister-in-laws mentioned that's where she bought her gown... read more

An ultimate and fun experience – I recently visited Ultimate Bride with my mother to find my wedding gown. I thought the shop was beautiful with all the sunlight coming in from the huge windows. My overall experience was excellent -nothing short of "ultimate". My consultant asked me several questions to help her define my look. She was respectful of my budget and as a result I found the MOST gorgeous dress--for me.We even found something for my mom to wear! A one-stop shop! This is a class act. I went to several other shops ... read more

Ultimate Experience at Ultimate Bride – I loved everything about Ultimate Bride. This boutique was referred to me by my friends in Chicago. Any of my girlfriends that are married have purchased their gowns from UB. Each of them had such a great experience that I decided to fly up from Florida to find my gown. I love Oak Street & I love that boutique. It is adorable! I ended up choosing a Monique Lhuillier gown. Brides, you know that feeling when you find the dress of your dreams. My Mom decided on a Peter Langner Mother of t... read more

Glossy pages of the latest bridal magazines come to life. – The Scene This Oak Street boutique embodies nearly every girl's dream bridal salon. Sales people are nice as can be, chatty and doting; the shop is chaotic, buzzing with excited oohs and ahhs. You don't have to rummage through dresses, searching blindly for the perfect dress. Instead, a consultant discusses your ideas, your shape and the wedding details, then starts bringing out dresses. It's quite civilized, even fun. The Goods Expect hard-to-find and high-end bran... read more

Terrible Greeting but Great Finale! – I am from Tennessee so I went to Chicago to find a wedding dress because the salons here are terribly limited. When we arrived for our appointment 10 minutes early the lady at the front desk was RUDE! I don't mean, "please take a seat and we will be with you shortly" rude. I mean "You are early. You will have to wait. You know we don't open until..." Needless to say it started off terrible. I also agree that the shop itself is nothing to write home about, it needs a makeover. However, St... read more

You work on commission? – I had a similarly bad experience as the other reviewers. I made an appt for 4:00pm - and arrived on time. I waited until about 4:40. At that point, I was taken into a room and the snobbiest woman I have ever dealt with asked me rude questions about me and my wedding. She then brought out 3 dresses. After trying these on, she announced that it was 5:00 and they were closed so if I wanted to see more dresses - I would have to come back. This was after seeing 3 dresses - it was clear that her time was ... read more

Worst Customer Service in Chicago – Ultimate Bride should be called Ultimate Nightmare. When I arrived they had written down my name incorrectly and then challenged me about even having an appointment. I was made to feel it was my fault for the mistake they made. I wanted to leave then. It only got worse. After telling them my budget was unlimited, they brought me three or four gowns and then told me that was all they had that fit the description I was looking for. The samples were in HORRIBLE condition. The service, well yo... read more

Rip-Off – My sister bought her wedding dress here and was fairly pleased, so we purchased our bridesmaid dresses through a trunk show that Ultimate hosted. We spend almost $400 on each dress and the designer was there to size them - the dresses arrived 5 weeks late (getting there less than 1 month before the wedding) and every dress is AT LEAST 1 size too big. Ultimate will not alter the dress and basically said "Sucks to be you -- we won't do anything". I will never give them business again.
