Thank you so much to Marianna from the Melbourne boutique. I had the most beautiful and kind experience with her and it was just a pleasure. She really made me feel comfortable and I am so excited to see the end result.

Myself, my future daughter in law and her family had an amazing experience with the equally amazing Vesna who made not only the bride to be feel fabulous but made us all feel inclusive. I would highly recommend and thank Vesna for the truly beautiful experience. Narelle Harvey

My experience with everyone at Sposa was incredible. Corra helped me find the perfect dress and veil. She listened to what I liked and didn't like and gave me some amazing dresses to choose from. The alteration appointments went really smoothly and they did an amazing job. I felt so beautiful on my wedding day thanks to everyone at Sposa.

Excellent service. Jaz was so good at knowing which dresses would suit me best while also allowing space for me to choose authentically which dress felt right. Loved my dress! Great alterations. The Sposa Group as a team helped me find a dress and got it altered with 4 weeks of my wedding. Amazing.

I couldn't have wished for more a wonderful experience !! It was my first time wedding dress shopping and I had no idea what I was doing but Amelia was so helpful and immediately calmed my nerves. I found my dress and I couldn't be happier :)

I had my consultation with Athena, who was amazing. She made me feel comfortable, took the time to understand what I was looking for, and ultimately made my appointment so much more enjoyable. I was very lucky (after being to four other stores) to find my absolute dream dress with Athena's help. It is a moment I'll always treasure! Highly recommend the Sposa Group. Such beautiful dresses!

Although I didn’t end up proceeding with a dress from Sposa group, the customer service was one to remember. The best support and guidance I have received in my journey to find a dress.Amelia was incredibly supportive throughout the entire process, offering guidance and making me feel at ease. Her attention to detail and genuine care truly made a difference. I couldn’t be happier with the service. Highly recommend this shop for anyone looking for a personal and supportive bridal experience!

Amelia was absolutely fantastic and really listened to what I was after and tailored my try-on experience to what I was looking for. I didn’t feel pressured or uneasy at all throughout the appointment and I ended up saying yes to the dress! I’m so happy with my experience and would 100% recommend Sposa Group to anyone!

I got my dream dress at Sposa Group. I had the lovely Vesna as my consultant and she made the experience so amazing and special for me!! She was very knowledgeable - she also went above and beyond to change the design of the original dress to make it my dream dress! The other ladies in the showroom were so welcoming and lovely!!

I had an amazing experience finding the perfect gown for me and our big day. I'm indecisive as best so I knew finding 'the dress' would be hard but Amelia and Corra were able to help me find the dress that best suited me though gentle guidance and advice, even offering and suggesting small changes that make a big difference! They were kind, respectful and honest throughout the whole process and made me feel comfortable through the whole process. Jing in alternations had such attention to detail (that I didn’t even notice) and wouldn’t let me leave without it being perfect. I wore my dress from beginning to end and wish I could wear it all over again!

The Sposa Group was the second bridal store I went to in the hope of finding my dream wedding dress. I had a very bad experience at the first store, where I felt rushed & forced to try on dresses I did not really like, thought the quality & storage of the dresses was poor, & I would have to outsource a seamstress for alterations.At this store, I was lucky enough to have Vesna, who was so patient, informative & helpful, & I felt like she genuinely cared. She let me walk around the whole store and take my time picking out dresses I wanted to try on. I asked so many questions & she did not look bothered at all. The first dress I tried on ended up being ‘the one’, & I am absolutely in love with it! I spoke to Vesna about one minor change I wanted to make, & she was able to make the perfect temporary adjustments so I could visualise it on the spot.This beautiful experience I had is all thanks to Vesna. My wedding is only 4 months away but they are making it happen for me & I could not be happier. Thank you so much Vesna & the team at The Sposa Group, this was the perfect wedding dress search experience!!!

Jas, you were absolutely amazing! Your expert knowledge in all things bridal was very impressive. As soon as I walked in yesterday, you were welcoming and understood exactly what I was after in choosing my dream dress. Your patience and care was of the highest standard and it made me feel at ease knowing that I was in good hands. Thank you for making my experience at Sposa Group a happy and memorable one! I love my wedding dress and cant wait to visit your store again in September for my fitting!Warmest Regards,Sally

I bought my wedding dress at Sposa Group Melbourne yesterday! I was so blown away and delighted by my stylist, Marianna's support. I really thought I was going along for a reconnaissance mission, my wedding is still 18 months away so I never expected to find my dress so soon, or so easily.Right from the pre - appointment questionnaire their whole process was very thorough. They had a huge range of dresses, Marianna listened closely to what I wanted and paid attention to my feedback on each of the dresses I tried on. She was able to make suggestions as a result that were so helpful and made me see possibilities and options that I hadn't considered! My Mum and bridesmaid who came with me were included in the process and they both had a great time, too.In the end, I've bought a custom dress because I loved the top half of one and the bottom half of another, which is something their designer allows for - and it was still within my budget! I'm excited to wear something that's one of a kind, and I'm even more excited about my wedding now that I've found my dress!I'd highly recommend The Sposa Group and Marianna to any brides. :-)

I never imagined I could end up in my dream dress, in my size. But Sposa has a massive selection for any shape and size. They made me feel so beautiful and they really delivered. Thank you team!

Thank you to The Sposa Group for making me feel like a princess on my wedding day.The whole process from my first visit to the store, which was also my first visit to any bridal store, to the alterations process was such an easy and wonderful experience.I'm very grateful to Suellen in particular who, because of her patient and attentiveness, helped me find the most perfect dress and accessories. However, the entire team, from customer service to alterations, are dedicated to providing the best possible shopping experience to their customers.It is honestly no wonder that they are rated one of the top bridal gown boutiques in Victoria!

I enjoyed a VIP experience on a Wednesday evening and it was unforgettable. This special appointment was worth every dollar and has left me with a memory for a lifetime. Special shoutout to Marianne who made me feel so comfortable and pins those dresses in ways I could have never conceived. THANK YOU!

I had an excellent experience with The Sposa Group Melbourne. I'd been to 4 dress appointments prior to this and hadn't found my dream dress. Marianna really helped me to narrow down what I wanted, and in the end she was the one who picked out my dress for me to try on. She has a very good eye because we all instantly loved it, and I made a deposit that same appointment. She never tried to upsell us, rather we all felt her genuine desire to help. In fact, the dress she picked out was one of the cheapest I had tried on.Throughout my appointment I felt totally at ease and comfortable. Marianna and the rest of the Sposa Group staff were super friendly, and I never felt judged or out of place.At the end of the appointment, once I'd purchased my dress, they took a photo of my family/friend and I in front of their decorative feature wall, so we can keep the memory of the day I found my dress. It was just another little detail that made the day that much more special, and I'm very grateful to have those photos.

Unbelievable !! Firstly we had the amazing Jas, she was extremely attentive, knowledgable, caring, comfortable to speak to and asked questions along the way to ensure I found "the" dress. If you want that classic bridal experience that you see in the movies and "say yes to the dress Atlanta" this is the place for you! The range is amazing, there are so many different styles, designs and brands. Not once did I feel rushed or pushed into making a decision. Even though we had Jas as our person stylist all the other woman we interacted with were extremely polite, lovely and approachable.I attended another boutique that was very small, barely had a range and felt like I was on display to the other brides and the public (in the window), my experience at the Sposa Group was the opposite. It was private as the dressing rooms are towards the back, there are boards in the window as backdrops for the mannequins so you can't see in and there are racks upon racks of beautiful dresses!This is a must if you are searching for your wedding dress! You will not be disappointed !! And yes, I found my dress here!

The best experience I had shopping wedding dresses! I was assisted by Jas and Marianna- both were extremely professional, warm and knew their stock inside and out (including possible customisation). I loved that they provided recommendations and were able to read me very well and provide clarity during what can be a confusing process. They helped me build my dream dress! The shop is also so lovely, clean and light filled with so much choice (including affordability) without being too overwhelming.(Only negative I’d say is I don’t love that Saturday appointments are more expensive as it’s a little unfair to people who work full time)

Management made mistakes, blamed me for it, and subsequently... I had to pay for their mistake, both in my time and cost!....I was in between dress sizes and I was paying extra for a corset/lace up back. Management insisted I get a dress a size up, even through I mentioned that the smaller size would more appropriate due to the corset. Once I received the dress, it didn't fit me as expected (in fact was hanging off me). Although I trust management's recommendations, I was made to feel blamed for this incident and management failed to take any accountability for their role in the decision making. I was left to pay extra alterations costs due to their recommendation to get the bigger size, on top of the cost I initially paid for the lace up back.Additionally, I didn't received a follow up to book my alterations appointment, which I was told they were going to contact me to organise. When I did called to book the appointment, management proceeded to place the blame on me that I hadn't already booked this appointment and didn't take accountability for the delay and their mistake. As a result, my alterations appointment was 4 weeks after their suggested date, unnecessarily adding extra stress before my wedding as there were significant alterations to be had due to the dress being the wrong size which was only ready to be picked up 1 week before my wedding.The consultants and alterations girls were so lovely and so patient and in the end my dress was lovely.Unfortunately it was the management that did not give me a good experience as a whole. The added stress and chaos only weeks before my wedding could 100% have been avoided. The communication, expertise and accountability of the management was clearly lacking; not only towards client, but towards their staff.

I did the VIP experience with Sposa, and it was easily the best decision I have made throughout my wedding planningIn particular I want to thank Mariana, Atoussa and Chelsea for making this experience so special for me and my tribe.It was such a magical evening and I appreciate all the care, thought, compassion and understanding they put into helping me find my dress and for all the care, expertise and love they showed me on the journey to making that decisionCould not speak of the boutique highly enough. It is a stunning venue, they put together the most beautiful grazing board and champage for me and the girls, and everyone in attendance said the same thing - that when it's their turn they are so excited to have the same experience with SposaThey were professional, knowledagable, had such a wide variety of dresses and knew which questions to ask to help guide me without presenting anything that wasn't within the budget we discussed.They genuinely cared, and were very in tune with how I felt in each dress I tried; it was the perfect balance of listening to what I wanted, but also giving their own expertise and advise when I got stuck on some detailsCould not recommend this venue, and especially the VIP experience, highly enoughThank you again ladies for such an amazing night and for such a beautiful memory for me, my family, and my friends

I had an appointment here last week after a friend had recommended this store. Appointment cost $50 (not uncommon) however it was quite a hot day and we weren’t offered water let alone bubbles (like all other stores offered). Unable to take any photos in dresses but will email you photos from the website, which is pointless as I can’t compare what I look like in a dress to what their 6ft size 6 model looks like in a dress. Didn’t take any of my measurements and told me I would have to come back for a second appointment in order to do so (we still had 30 minutes left of the appointment when we left so weren’t running short on time). The woman helping me, Athena, make me feel quite uncomfortable and was extremely rude. Snapped at me for saying I wanted a white dress because ‘they don’t sell white dresses only ivory’ and snapped at my mother for calling a dress with no lace, beading or embroidery etc ‘plain’. There are so many other better bridal stores in Melbourne, with much nicer dresses and incredible staff, I wouldn’t waste your time here or spend a cent.

I purchased my dress at Sposa for my wedding that was a few weeks ago.Jas helped me at the earlier stage to pick out the dress. She was patient and knowledgeable, and would give me suggestions about what looked good on me. This was very helpful as I was dress shopping by myself. Jas was very open with what kind of dress I wanted, I had a couple of a appointments and end up purchasing a semi-custom dress that was a mix of 2 different dresses that I like. Jas was so knowledgeable that she already gave me an idea of how much the dress would cost with alterations - to make sure it was still within my budget.My wedding dress came about 5 months later. I picked it up no issues, and about 6 weeks before my wedding I brought it back in for alterations. The in-house alteration service is super helpful, as they know when your wedding is, they'll help with scheduling everything and making sure it is done on time. They are also very competent.On my fitting appointment, I had Lefy who is such a nice lady. She made sure I liked the alterations that was needed, and spoke to me about the complications around the hem (as there was some lace at the bottom) and more alterations needed on the bust. With everything required she managed to keep everything within my budget.I brought 2 friends to my last fitting appointment, and Lefy was very attentive and accommodating, and did more alterations on my body. Very very happy with how it all fits together at the end. The dress was super flattering on my body!! I could not ask for a better dress.Last but not least, as I've come over so many times, Chelsea always greeted me with a smile, made sure I didn't panic when I once misread my appointment times which I really appreciate. Best place to get your wedding dress, I recommend 100%!

I got my wedding gown from Sposa last year. They were unmatched in terms of customer service and gown choice. I found my beautiful dress (a dress I didn't know I'd even like but purely tried on for the fabric) and trusted Marianna's guidance on sizing. I couldn't have done better! Being between sizes, it was stressful to pick the smaller option, but Marianna was spot on!! Marianna and the whole team were fantastic. Could not recommend The Sposa Group more!

Brides, do yourself a favour and book an appointment at the Sposa Group Melbourne! The dresses are stunning and the service is second to none. I looked at about five dress boutiques but couldn't go past the quality and beauty of the dresses at Sposa. Mariana, Persia and the team helped me find my wedding dress, they made the experience so comfortable and special. I wasn't pressured to go above my budget or anything like that. and I also had alterations done there. The work was absolutely faultless, the dress fitted me like a glove. Everything was so efficient and timely as well, no stress about getting my dress on time. I received so many compliments on the stunning beading and lace detail at my wedding. Highly recommend!!
